These guys made such big strides with that last record, and now it seems they're back to terribly immature stuff. A shame.

It would've been legendary if their lyrics were "I want to be legend, wait for it, dary."

pretty good whens the new album out?

The "How I Met Your Mother" and "Celebrity Rehab" name drops, the Peter Pan stuff.

i don't think this song is immature at all. referencing a tv show might not make for the best lyrics, but it's in a pretty mature setting here.

This song is going to be incredibly dated in just a few years, and the name drops are just cringe-worthy.

But whatever

Well I do love HIMYM but I do see the point in this being dated in a few years. I can see this song being more for fun or a B-side but not as a legitimate song on the album. But hey I could be wrong?

I hate when bands write about subject matter that relates to a present fad. I know artists refer to certain time periods, but to namedrop a TV show is lame in this day and age(IMO).

I also loved where they were heading based on their last album. Got alot of MB20/Train vibes from that record; definitely my favorite they've released.

I do love HIMYM though....

I thought BDales was joking a few months back when he said he was going to write a song about HIMYM. I only listened to maybe the first minute or so but as of right now I am so up in the air about if I like it or not.

I think the album version will be sick. With the way bands go through album cycles, its not like the record is going to be relevant much longer than the show anyway.
