First Album in a Decade on Vinyl LP!
After a ten-year absence that left a palpable void in the hearts of millennial emo kids, Motion City Soundtrack are finally back - and yes, it's everything we hoped for. The Same Old Wasted Wonderful World feels like coming home: a dizzying, emotionally articulate blast of guitar-laced pop-punk that reminds us why this band meant so much in the first place. It's a sonic time machine, sure, but it never gets stuck in the past. Instead, it builds on it - older, a little bruised, but somehow more alive. Justin Pierre's voice still wobbles gloriously between a scream and a sigh, only now it carries the weight of experience, not just anxiety.
Rather than reinventing themselves, Motion City double down on what they've always done best: big hooks, bigger feelings, and that perfect tightrope walk between chaos and control. Tracks like "Particle Physics" (with Patrick Stump of Fallout Boy) and "Your Days Are Numbered" (featuring Mat Kerekes of Citizen) channel the kind of clarity that only comes after surviving your own worst years. In a world drowning in lazy nostalgia, The Same Old Wasted Wonderful World is a rare and welcome return that feels less like a reunion and more like a long-overdue continuation.
