I echo that sentiment.

It's the only one I like on the album.

I agree, it is a wicked song, but the deathish vocals always put a smile on my face.

Anyways, here's, in my opinion, the top five AOF songs:

1. .44 Caliber Love Letter
2. That Girl Posessed
3. You Burn First
4. Waterwings (and other poolside fashion faux)
5. A Daggar Through The Heart Of St. Angeles
.44 Caliber Love Letter definately takes it for top song. What an awesome tune.

Yeah, it's like their debut but with a touch of the Crisis polish. Awesome album, but self titled will always be the best.

Im wondering why people still get hard over sub-sub-sub genres of genres. We should just have a damn Rock and Roll section IMHFO. They should be in the post independant progressive artcore section if you ask me

lol. I hear ya.

I'm pretty general with how I classify the music I hear. People can claim to belong to a sub sub sub sub sub genre, but all it's doing is limiting their creativity lest they step outside their boundaries and become something else.
I guess it doesn't matter when you consider the diversity of music being an enjoyable thing and not a means of categorization.

I don't know about you, but I think the punk section is pretty fitting for Alexisonfire.
