I know we eventually did get the songs, but I want them in the highest quality possible and that'll never happen. This song not being officially released was a hate crime... You didn’t hear it from me, but the versions of Damaged and Civilian that surfaced are wav files (lossless) they are actually the highest quality tracks from that album that we have (along with Lovesick I think?) the rest run the gambit in terms of audio quality but Civilian and Damaged are top notch!

It's such a great album, I love how all their 3 HR albums are so different from each other and still pretty damn good. I will never forgive HR for shelving both 78Violet and shelving Hilary's Dignity 2.

I'm still mad we didn't get studio versions of the reworked versions of Boy, 53rd Floor and Heart, they sound SO much better live than the studio versions.

Allow me to do some ‘research’ I think sometimes we have to remember that things happen for a reason and if they did release the 78violet album, that could have lead to us never getting their synth-pop material or these last two albums and I couldn’t imagine not having these last two albums.

If they were allowed to release 78Violet most likely they would change their band name successfully to 78Violet.... God awful name. I love that they admit now that it was an awful band name.
ATRL Moderator Ampersand13 Posted March 23, 2023 ATRL Moderator Posted March 23, 2023 Going back and forth on whether I’m gonna see them in New York City. I like this record so so much that I’m leaning toward going
Cherish Posted March 23, 2023 Posted March 23, 2023 I just hate the cover so much. I wanted a postcard vintage type

ATRL Moderator Ampersand13 Posted March 24, 2023 ATRL Moderator Posted March 24, 2023 Mess, am I really going to save up for that ridiculous $200 merch bundle just to get the blue vinyl
Wrecked Posted March 25, 2023 Posted March 25, 2023 (edited) Does anybody else love their signature “ooh ooh” they put into songs? Currently listening to Love You This Way and I love when that part comes on. Edited March 25, 2023 by Wrecked

Lol this reminded me a tweet that basically was like ‘if there’s one thing Aly & AJ are gonna do it’s put ‘ooh ooh’ in a song’ It always works though, we have no choice but to stan consistent queens

That’s a good point, I think I’ll hold off for now anyway. I still remember the anxiety of getting Hothouse on vinyl, so every time they release a new one my immediate reaction is to snatch it up

It seems like it’s their signature thing to do and I love it. I’m finding myself at the minute constantly singing “love is on the move” to myself. The way they sing that part is so infectious!
