There is a thread about them somewhere, I distinctly remember that, but I am too lazy and fucked up on codeine to look.
A lot of their songs are weird, because they have these really beautiful, amazing parts but the songwriting is almost always awful. There is no real flow to a lot of their songs (specifically on the last few albums), it's just this weird cut and pasting of sections. Look at a song like "Don't Save Us From the Flames" (which I love, actually), it just feels like these disconnected parts put together.. it doesn't always work, and it makes the songs all feel kinda just.. eh. They don't tell much of a story, they just have one cool part, then maybe a shitty part, then a cool part, etc. A small criticism but something I noticed.
They have some other songs, though, that just build and build and build. I love those. I think his older albums are way better. Saturdays=Youth bored the hell out of me.
I really like this band, actually, but I don't LOVE them. They do have some really great songs though, so yeah.
