They get my respect for not desperately holding on to the same old trick that once made em great. It takes guts to turn your back to your comfort zone and take the risk to try something different.
Too bad the end result sucks so bad though. What's with the faux 80s vibe and the shitty cold sound? Not to mension I'd swear I heard this song from some other crappy band...about 38zillion times.
The end of the video and the whole new LP is just awesome. If someone their new stuff is crap is because they are stupids who think TGUK should release the same album again and again. Grow up.
@ToLaFies I'm crying on the inside. I'll stick with The Get Up Kids I know and love. I just don't feel the same emotion in the new music. So, if that means I need to grow up, then so be it. I'm still not going to change my mind because some troll on the internet is tell people to grow up.
WOW! Hell Yeah! Love The Get Up Kids! Listening to a lot of TGUK, Hey You!, Blondie, Green Day, The Offspring, Weezer and No Doubt...MORE PUNK IN 2011 !!
Hey You! is still pretty new, but they're waaaay dope. Cool edge, and cute chick singer too :-) ...you should check em out
Dood James Dewees just needs to check out, this synth nonsense is just too much, go back to the original 4 piece and make post punk again, if anything just for shits and giggles
This song just never picks up or goes anywhere. Lack of ideas? "Something to write home about" is a masterpiece that they'll never manage to beat, but this is not just one step below. This should be buried deep under ground and forgotten by everyone.
I can't make up my mind. I mean... yeah its not bad but its not great either compared to their other stuff in the 90s. I felt this was slightly generic and repetitive in my honest opinion. I'm sorry if that sounds cruel considering they're a respectable band but I'm looking forward to hearing more of their new material.

Melhor disco do TGUK, There Are Rules é sensacional.
rafaafm 1 year ago
Conheci o TGUK em 2002 e desde então não parei de ouvir.
Gostei do single Simple Science e mais ainda da produção de There Are Rules.
Saúde, força e fé. Sempre!!!
Abraço.
