its weird, but they have become a really weird band.

To be honest, their third record really click on me, but thats about it...and yeah live they are very good, i enjoyed them a lot in PJ20.

i love the first two albums, the third one is good, and the 4th is hit or miss. i just dont know why they continue to drift into this shitty 80s sound. or why the singer thinks he sounds good singing w/ his balls in a vice.

This band's been walking down one stair at a time for me.

Loved the 1st record, really liked the 2nd one, liked the 3rd one, didn't even bother with the 4th one.

They've fallen into a niche, mix-tape-ish band for me unfortunately. When I listen to them I usually listen to them for the songs I like the most and then onto the next.

The Stones are the band for me where I can flip through their albums for the songs I love the most and then can switch back and listen to them in full album mode.

That song is embarrassingly bad.

I Never listened to them at all until seeing them at pj20 and i fell in love with them live, downloaded all their albums, loved the first 3 and nothing else really. I haven't listened to that new song, but the reaction is pretty bad so i don't expect anything good

Even if this were a better track (better writing, better production, better performances) I'm completely unable to enjoy it because the keyboard melody reminds me too much of a shitty Mexican pop song from my childhood.

Lately their songs are a hit and miss, but I long for the days when I was 15 and this band changed my youth.

I don't think I hated that song, but I don't think I liked it either.

Loved 'First Impressions'...I think it's their best. The rest of their stuff is hit or miss with me. I actually don't care for the 1st album that much. It's OK, but I think the next two are superior.

i really like the first song a lot

a lot of the songs sound 80s ish, except for the one that has 80s in the title.. which sounds like the old strokes
