iTunes bonus track..

I'd love to hear your top 3 and top 3 worst for you. Let me know!

 

Apr 1, 2015

My Top 3..
1. Let Go
2. f--- The World
3. Save Me

My Bottom 3..
1. Guzzle Guzzle
2. I'll Be There
3. Take Me Home

Danny's hooks on this are great. Hes a much better vocalist than Deuce but I still think Deuce is a better song writer. Charlie's verse on Dark Places.. holy s---. Sounds like Eminem's old flow. Let Go needs to be a radio single. One of their best songs ever. Guzzle Guzzle.. doesn't even sound like Funny Man. Sounds like a guest feature. Wish he used his normal voice.

 

Apr 1, 2015

Good list. I actually enjoy Guzzle Guzzle and I'll Be there. I so agree with Take Me Home. It's a Imagine Dragon's knock off.

Let Go, f--- THe World, and Save Me are all solid s---. I think Let Go is my number 1 too.

Also, I think Sing is one that is growing on me quickly. I LOVE J3 verse.

 

Apr 1, 2015

I f---in love Sing. Listening to Johnny's verse now. Amazing. I think J-Dog really stepped his game up on this album too. And it's great to hear Charlie back in a bigger role. I can't get enough of Let Go and f--- The World. Best HU songs I've heard since AT.

 

Apr 1, 2015

Let Go at the end with the screams over danny's bridge, so d--- sick. f--- The World is probably the closets thing to Swan Song.

 

Apr 2, 2015

Exactly. I can't get enough of that bridge. "f--- love... f--- you!"

Absolutely love this album, definitely my favorite from them right next to American Tragedy. To me personally it has the perfect mix of everything, the rock and metal is great, their rapping has improved tremendously and the party songs are still fun to listen to.

 

Apr 4, 2015

Yeah I was listening to their old stuff the other day and two major things that you can hear are the improvements in rapping and production. I mean ten fold. Especially Jdog.

Charlie has always been good but easily outclassed everyone on Swan Songs. Only thing I liked as much as Charlie on Swan was J3T on Young and City. However on Notes I think Jdog and J3T def improved and here they are basically all leveled out.

I do love the new flows Charlie tries on here. I do love J3T singing, especially on Sing. I love Danny's voice on Guzzle Guzzle, s--- is straight fireeee.

Overall the new sounds they try on here almost all work.

I'd say AT > Day > Swan > Notes for me.

 

Apr 4, 2015

Yea their rapping on this is phenomenal. J3T, Charlie, and J-Dog are all talented as f---. J-Dog's verse on f--- The World... wow. Usual Suspects has grown on me a ton. Funny Man's opening verse gets me pumped. Best album opening track since Undead. If I ranked their albums right now I'd say..

1. Swan Songs 10/10
2. American Tragedy 8/10
3. Day Of The Dead 8/10
4. Notes From The Underground 5/10

 

Apr 4, 2015

Yeah the difference is huge! Johnny is my favorite member of the group, he just has this perfect poetic style and every verse is just thought provoking and hits hard. Charlie has some crazy flows on this album and the parts with him and Danny singing together is just phenomenal. J Dog definitely had the biggest improvement in every aspect and Dannys choruses are just epic. I wish Da Kurlzz had more vocal involvement, a verse here and there would be nice, and Funny Man was awesome on this record too. This is the perfect HU album for me and top 3 songs no order would have to be

Take Me Home
Sing
Save Me
And albums in order
Dotd, At, Ss, Nftu

 

Apr 4, 2015

Agree with this 100% Can we acknowledge the fact that Johnny, Charlie, and J-Dog are talented as f--- for white rappers?

 

Apr 4, 2015

Agreed on all this. Da Kurlzz yells would def be more welcomed. His Screams on Let Go are so epic. He should do it more. Funny-man actually might be my biggest surprise. Never was a fan of his verses but d--- it, he killed it on the party tracks here and like Arch said great opener to the entire album.

J-dog's best verse for me has to be Let Go and f--- the World easily. J3T shines on Let Go but I think my favorite verse from him has to be Day of the Dead. Charlie killed it on Party by Myself. His verse made that song actually jump a score.

Ranking albums it go

American Tragedy - 9
Day of the Dead - 8
Swan Song - 7
Notes - 6.5

 

Apr 4, 2015

Yeah. Charlie def still has the best flow but J3T and J-dog have improved over the years. I still think J3T has some of the best lyrics of all rap sometimes. The s--- he says sometimes really makes you think.

 

Apr 5, 2015

J3T's verses are always so poetic, and they never drop in quality. Except for when he occasionally tries to rap on a party track. I actually think it'd be pretty cool to hear a solo EP from him someday.

I love when J-Dog puts emotion in his voice during verses. Perfect example: his Black Dahlia verse, which is probably my favorite verse in HU history. His delivery on f--- The World is epic. "I was an outcast. I'm heaven's mistake. So now I'm standing at the foot of the fiery gates. And I turned the invitation so I'm already late. But I wanna watch it burn, so the devil can WAIT!"

 

Apr 5, 2015

You guys just hit the nail on the head lol. I would love to hear a solo Johnny 3 Tears album, it could be really interesting. His verse on Sing was such a surprise for me, I don't think he's ever done such a smooth and calm flow. I realized J Dog had such a big improvement the second he started rapping on Dark Places, just wow! lol

 

Apr 5, 2015

J-Dog was the def weak link for a long time. He's grown in a lot of ways. Especially lyrics. His opening on f--- the World was dope as h---. My main issue with him is his flow usually sounds to samey but he's done some interesting stuff on here. I especially love his low voice on Guzzle Guzzle second verse.

Arch made me think of my fave verses from them. I'd probably put it like this.

J3T:
1. Lion (Second Verse)
2. Young (First or Second)
3. Glory (1st Verse)
Honorable: Outside (Second Verse)

Charlie -
1. City verse
2. Mother Murder Verse
3. Been To h--- (This is my fave opening from them behind Undead)
Honorable: Lights out (DOPE)

Funnyman -
1. Usual Suspects
2. Party By Myself
3. Natives

Jdog -
1. Black Dahila
2. f--- The World
3. Disease (second verse)

Danny -
1. Levitate
2. Mother Murder
3. Outside
Honorable: Sing

Deuce *Just for the f--- of it*
1. Young
2. City
3. Paradise Lost

 

Apr 5, 2015

I think a solo album from him would be great. After hearing Sing he could probably pull off a few songs by himself. Maybe have a song or two with just him and Danny. But it would be cool to hear him rapping alongside the lead singers from other bands. Imagine a song with him and Chester Bennington, a song with Aaron Lewis, etc.

 

Apr 5, 2015

Great list man! Totally agree with your Charlie verses.

 

Apr 5, 2015

I hear they're gonna add "How We Roll"" to their live show. Hope it's when I go, I'd love to hear that one. April 30th baby!
