Dedicating my 20,000th post to the best song of 2015 (so far)

Like I'm listening to Pass Me By right now and there's like 7 different melodies that build throughout the 3 minute song? So good. And the ENERGY in Ain't No Way We're Goin' Home. I can't. Those songs are so melodically generous where these new songs sound like the writers went "this will do" after 5 minutes. Like all their good songs started going to MKTO.

Honestly, I do. Of course, it's not as sugary as any of the songs on Louder, but I don't necessarily see that as a bad thing. Riker said that this album was going to be a more mature experience- I feel like this song does a
perfect job taking the R5 sound/formula we've come to love and presenting it in less bubblegum wrapped packaged. The bridge on LNBAT is really endearing, and those final choruses that follow hit you SO HARD!
but, I get what you're saying.

Hopefully there will be some songs on that album that you like.
