Definitely, I was really digging the way they changed it up on that album. Quite refreshing to see that from a band like that.

I thought I actually went and bought it (yes, the old school way) on the day it came out...I was a little shocked at the almost electronica beat they had going on in some of it, but I'm liking it.

Is there really any reason to like this band other than the fact that their trendy and have "cute" haircuts?

awh, you think their haircuts are cute? how sweet. I wouldn't know, they were pretty sweaty and wearing cutoff shirts when I got to see them. I like them for their music, and the way they can switch things up, but that's just me. I like what I like. As do you, I'm assuming.

I've listened to them before, they seem like another generic douchecore band to me only with random "techno" sections thrown in.

New vocalist is way better. I didn't like their old sound at all. They are definitely moving in the right direction with the new vocalist.

You could be nice about it, dude.

Well, I'm not really a big fan of the genre. To me, Attack Attack seems to be another one of these cookie cutter bands that people are calling "Post-Hardcore" now. Which, they aren't, but whatever.

I like music with something intellectual to offer or something that makes me think "Wow, never seen that done in music before." Or even "Wow! I haven't heard that in a loooong time!". Sadly, Attack Attack, IWABO, BMTH, and any other band these days has neither that "wow" factor and more importantly, raw genuine talent.

I'm sure they are all great musicians, but it doesn't show because they backed into this "corner" in which they feel they have to give in to the temptation of being another mediocre teenage phase.

But you like them, I don't. That's just my opinion. Just wanted to offer some intelligent debate.

That's all cool. But have you even listened to anyof their albums? Because that seems like a pretty vague post and also seems pretty judgemental based on little to no actual experience.

Yes I have. I don't go making blind statement without having listened to at least 5 songs by them. They weren't GOD AWFUL, not by a long shot. But there is improvement to be made. But like said, they may not all be bad musicians or singers, but it has yet to be seen.
