The Seer focused a lot more on folk instrumentation and the Gothic sensibility of their 90's output while adding a lot of drone element as well. To Be Kind focuses on drone still they keep the very long slow moving songs, but with a lot heavier and groove orientated take. It's a really awesome album I'd suggest it.

I'll be giving To Be Kind another listen in a few days. It just didn't touch me the first time around.

Soundtracks is my favourite album of all time, potentially. So maybe you shouldn't listen to me haha!

Four Year Strong - Go Down In History [EP] [2014] [Pop Punk]
I probably wouldn't listen to Four Year Strong if I wasn't extremely nostalgic for it. However, their new EP went back to their old sound and is their best yet. It's really happy yet aggressive, energetic , very catchy and very cheesy, yet it's not making me cringe like New Found Glory would. Oh and the lyrics might not be all that good but at least they're not songs about girlfriends and ex girlfriends, so I'm okay with it.
