They're not bad, I didn't like their new album though I only liked 2 or 3 songs off it...but their first album wasn't bad at all (IMO). I liked it because it was different, and then all the 16 years olds started to worship the band and that kinda made me wish I didn't like them. Not one of my favorite bands, but I really don't think they're as bad as a lot of people think. I haven't seen them live, but I don't have a hard time believing they suck in concert.
and Timberwolves at New Jersey is probably my favorite song...well either that or You're So Last Summer.
Please don't flame me for liking them. Call it a guilty pleasure.
cute without the e (cut from the team) is a kick a$$ song, that influenced me to listen to them, i would say the 1st album is way better......john nolan was in it, of course.......i saw them live at warped tour, they were ok, adam's voice was kinda scratchy, but they sounded good with guitars and drum, etc..........did anyone know that there is a conflict between brand new and tbs, or something, or tbs and straylight run(jon nolan's new band).....something like that

Ditto, ditto & ditto.
How can you actually see this band perform live and unaided by a studio, then claim "They're not as bad as people think."?
The fact that they sound completely different and shit, when performing live, says alot about how enhanced they are on album. Which makes your musician licence null and void.
If you use studio engineering to the point that it alters your sound dramatically, you're no credible artist.

"ur ability to play the songs u create doesnt change the fact that you've created a decent song to begin with."
Yes but giving someone the tag of being a good/great band based on an album that isn't even them, is wrong.
Taking Back Sunday are shit. They are a shit band, anyone who has heard them live will be able to testify. They obviously use engineering beyond belief, defeats the purpose of making art.
