The Summer Set Are Set to Write LP3 This Summer
 

The Summer Set will be moving into a house for the summer to begin work on their third album.

We're releasing albums once a year now?

Wow, it's like everyone is working on new music now... awesome stuff, really liked Love Like This and Everything's fine. Good pop tunes.

Too many bands with the "The Summer.." or "The (insert) Summer" to keep up with.

Starting the writing process in May means it probably wont see a release date until like March 2013

I guess this'll be their Summer Set up.

Can't wait for this. Hoping it has more of the rock/pop feel of Love Like This.

I think it'll definitely be more rock.

Yay.

Reminds me how blink did their 2003 release. I wonder how this is gonna sound, hopefully more heavy! Kinda bummed i never got to see them play on Wednesday since it sold out.

Hopefully it doesn't suck this time!

Or NFG moving into a Malibu mansion for Coming Home haha.

Loved the first album when it came out really catchy stuff. I couldn't get into the second album though at all maybe I should give it another spin.

I forgot teeny boppers love this band.

Same for me. For me it was all about the sequence of the songs. "About A Girl" may be the worst song to open that album with. And it definitely would have benefited from having "Crash", "Last First Kiss" and "Let The Walls Come Down" instead of songs like "Thick As Thieves", "Love To You" or "About A Girl".

I'm stoked for this--both albums have been great for their own reasons. A combo of the two would be an amazing release.

I don't know if anyone saw this, but AP put up a live session with them doing reworked versions of Thick as Thieves and When We Were Young. Link here: http://www.altpress.com/aptv/video/t...mmer_set_video

I disagree--About A Girl set the tone for the whole album. By itself it's nothing special, but in context it's the perfect opener. Thick as Thieves is also a fun song, and Love To You was alright. Of course, the b-sides were good as well.

Wow, that version of "Thick As Thieves" should've been on the album. Million times better.

This is usually a great method for writing...I approve!

Same.

I only know of those two and The Rocket Summer.

The Endless Summer
The Rocket Summer
The Dangerous Summer
The Summer Set

And there's probably more. But I'm still looking forward to this release

Should film it, and make it like a season of Jersey Shore, except really funny. cuz thats what i thought of after reading this

Summer Vacation. Only they're pretty good. You should check them out, they had a split earlier with Joyce Manor. http://summervacation.bandcamp.com/a...-w-joyce-manor

Thanks for the link! These versions are great. I kinda hope this is a preview of the direction the next album will take.

Don't understand the love this band gets, they seem pretty generic.

I think this is the best thing for the band. Although they all live within a 15 minute drive of each other, them moving into a house together will probably influence songwriting tremendously.

I don't know if this is too much information but they will be living within a 5 minute walk of all of Jimmy Eat World's old (and some current) drinking spots so maybe location will influence the writing.

Just so I don't come off as a huge fucking creep: TSS are good friends of mine and the house they are moving into is across the street from my place.

this band is bad

if i was in a band that's how i would want to write an album though

I know, both versions ruled. I wish there were some audio version of this somewhere so I could listen to it more. WWWY rocks so well.

If they mixed their past 2 cds and added a bit of the rock n roll sound from the reworked versions, their next cd will be so good. (Course, I kinda think that wherever they go I'll enojy it probably.)

I never knew about that! Did they document it?

I think there might be a few studio updates on youtube somewhere. Their video for their christmas song cover is in the house though I'm pretty sure.

I can't believe people actually enjoy this band.

add The Summer Obsession to that list

They make some fun pop music, I'm always interested to see what they're coming out with. Hopefully this gives them a chance to dig deeper with this record and maybe surprise people a bit.

I asked John about it in Amsterdam and he said they already had 6-ish "ideas" but that they were indeed moving into a house after this tour to fully concentrate on writing/recording etc.

He said they were working towards a combination of the last 2 albums, but it would be a more "rock" and "head-bobbing" album (although with them it's always to a certain extent).

I'm curious to see whether this album will actually grow onto me because the last one didn't really.
I just hope they won't solely focus on "combining the last two albums" but maybe try something new, I don't know.

i think that summer is the best time to write an album for any band, you get to be at home (usually), and hangout and write and record all day long. id love that atmosphere

I enjoy this band so i am looking forward to this release

I never listened to these guys much but for some reason Ive had Love Like This on rotation a lot this past month. Hope the new album is more in line with that album

Nice, I know "Crash" was released but I didn't realize anyone had heard "Last First Kiss" or "Let the Walls Come Down." Good songs, and they show how diverse the band can be.
