All Time Low

Their music really spoke to me, like, whatever.

And same, same with All Time Low as well.

Yeah.

I was also a fan of them.

Yeah.

And two, like, by you listening to them, even if you're, you're giving them, like, a couple cents a stream, you're showing them, "Hey, there are still people here that support you that don't care about what you're doing or don't know about what you're doing." And so you will...

Like, these bands, All Time Low is still playing huge fest-

Huge festivals

So...

Just to give some quick stats, you know, this came out August 22nd, 2006, Columbia Records got to number 55 on the Billboard 200, but it was produced by Matt Squire, who's done like 303, All Time Low, Forever the Sickest Kids, Neck Deep, Panic at the Disco, Take Me Back Sunday, The Used.

So like the production on this in 2006 was pretty good.

So just because it sounds better than maybe some average pop punk that you would call it, I don't think that's a reason to exclude it from the genre.

Much better.

Like I'm not talking about like, it's it's not like it's just better like this is clean the cleanest of clean pop music like and all time low don't forget like they no longer sounded like a pot like a punk band they they melded into a pop band

well you know way later down the road that's like the last

couple years

After like 50 episodes of doing this podcast, I figured it out.

All time low.

They're trying to be all time low.

That's the band that they're trying to be.

Because this sounds like an all-time

Yeah.

God.

Which, like, All Time Low has some really, like, a lot of good songs, but, like...

You know I

don't like All Time Low,

right?

I do.

Really? So give me an artist.

A Day to Remember, All Time Low.

Okay.

Okay.

Does like a lot of lighting design and production managing for huge rock bands like I Prevail, Megadeth.

He worked with All Time Low and Pierce the Veil before.

He's done a lot of stuff.

So he's very, very experienced.

[laughs]

And then they were like, "Oh, are people gonna ... " 'Cause I think funny thing is the same thing happened with All Time Low.

They must have listened to like one of our songs and gone, "Oh, that's heavy.

They must be like all their songs must be exactly like that." Because I remember when we went on tour with All Time Low with the Karang, the Karang tour, when I turned up and I, I spoke to Alex for the first time, he was like, "Oh, I thought you guys were gonna be like Pantera and just fucking-

[laughs]

... hate pop punk." And I was like, "Who the fuck have you been listening to?"

Ludacris, Luda, OAR, Yellow Cart, Shaggy, Liz Phair, Everlast, Gavin DeGraw.

Ah! Better Than Ezra, Sons of the Legion, KT, Tunstall, and then on Saturday, 21 Pilots, Gwen Stefani, Goo Goo Dolls, my wife's going to want to be at that one, Third Eye Blind, All Time Low, Baltimore Zone, 311, Violent Femmes, why can't I get, just want to get.

Dashboard confessional.
