    It sucks because its obvious theyre just making this style of music for what Danny wants AA to be. I remember an interview with Ben while Denis was still in the band and Ben was complaining how Danny was trying to make AA rock when everyone else in the band still wanted the heavy stuff during the From Death To Destiny era. Nek minnit, they make a great core album with The Black. Now ever since Dannys been back, theyve just gone right back to this style and it makes me so sad😢 was so hyped for Dannys return but at this rate, would prefer Denis to still be in the band tbh. This aint the AA i loved😢😢 breaks me lil heart.
    I love them all as individuals and Danny is one of my favourite humans but he has gots to go...

      They could easily part ways with Danny due to creative differences, thats what happened the first time around (Danny left due to wanting to pursue something different), but obviously they're happy with what they're creating. Baring in mind, Ben is the driving force behind the band, more so than Danny (Watch 'The Truth' in regards to when he left, Ben talks about writing material to cater to Danny and the others)
      You gotta remember, they're in their late 20's/early 30's. They're not full of angst and drugs anymore. They're married and have kids. They want to experiment and try new ideas rather than rinsing the same sound. They even said they don't ever want to make the same album twice.

    It’s weird; pacing-wise, BMTH’s video for True Friends had a similar stop/start kind of feel, but it just worked so much better in that one. Maybe because they used the strings to build back up after each break, so it didn’t feel like they just paused the song.

      The Black is my favorite album by AA and I’ve been listening to it really often as of late. Just raw energy, emotion and power behind each of their songs (even their not so popular ones had everything right going for them).
      I 100% agree Denis was the right choice vocal-wise moving forward, just wish he wasn’t as toxic of a person with his issues.
      I do not feel good about the direction they are going off of “The Violence” with the Guitar is a rip off of Jaden Smith’s “Watch Me”.
