Let's take what hurts and write it all down. On these paper walls and this empty house. And when our ink runs out, we'll burn it to the ground

The New Yellowcard Song.

Always Summer. I think is progression of somesort....

"When You're Through Thinking Say Yes" was an outstanding comeback album, Ryan probably wrote all the songs during the Hiatus and you get that polish more mature sound from each song.... if you get me

Always Summer takes the band back to their roots a more "Ocean Avenue" sound... I'm okay with this. The Violin in this song is insane i dont know if the younger Greg never really apreciated the violin or its just alot heavier since they have came back from hiatus

But yeah in the long run Yellowcard are back and I'm happy about this!

Say Yes to Yellowcard

                         After a two and a half year hiatus Yellowcard have returned to the pop-punk landscape; initially fans were flooded with distant memories of Ocean Avenue and Only One, but thankfully their latest release, When You’re Through Thinking, Say Yes, is arguably their strongest release to date.  Similarly to any Yellowcard album, from the first track we are greeted by an energetic assault course of sounds; opening track The Sound Of You and Me is no exception to this unwritten rule. Violent, thumping drum beats are complimented by Ryan Key’s  slower tempo vocal, as the relentless drumming drops out mid-song, Sean Macklin’s violin welcomes a solemn string section back into our music collection before an explosion of hearty pop-punk riffs absorb us. Yellowcard are back and are not disappointing: thank goodness for that. Midway through the album a triple-shot of pop-punk goodness (Life Of Leaving Home, Hide and Soundtrack) reminds us of all the reasons we ever loved the Jacksonville born rockers. As the three most impressive tracks on the album, the band demonstrate their growth in the last few years; reminiscent sugary sweetness is present but crisped by a fury of passion. Each track gets stronger and with every verse, stronger again. In true Yellowcard style, When You’re Through Thinking, Say Yes, had to have a heart wrenching ballad. Presented in the form of Sing For Me, it is soothing after a fury of 90mph pop-punk. Macklin shows that when used correctly, the violin can be used in contrast or in unity with pretty much any style of music. With simplistic lyrics and string founded verses, Sing For Me has potential but fizzles out in the chorus instead of exploding into the technicolor performance expected. 

Yellowcard have unquestionably grown since their debut release in 2002. Mackin’s unique violin compliment Key’s emotionally drenched vocals whilst Parson provides a backbone with his denting drum fills. The empathy and talent of each Yellowcarder is reflected in the band’s live chemistry. Ultimately, the cohesion between them sets them apart from other pop-punk bands, taking them to a whole new level. Throughout, it is evident that Yellowcard cherish the past and the memories they helped carve with their first album Ocean Avenue. Now, their fifth album presents a more grown up sound but waves happily at the anthems that will undoubtedly pop up at every gig they ever play. Even though the pop sweetness is evident throughout this nostalgic record, there is no sign of a regression for Yellowcard. When You’re Through Thinking, Say Yes is instead, a reflection of past riffs and lyrical genius moulded into an insight of the future for one of the most deserving bands of their pop-punk kind.
