I mean, Even If She Falls and Fighting The Gravity most consider part of Neighborhoods. I do. These stinkers should have been left off the official title

Yeah for sure, digital/streaming makes it annoying in that way I guess. But maybe I'm remembering wrong I thought the Neighborhoods discrepancy was a weird label thing? Like the "Deluxe" edition was what the band wanted for the actual album, but the label made them have two versions?

Since these two songs aren't even on free streaming services I'll probably forget they even exist haha. I haven't even heard them yet!

Apparently they're being put up on streaming services in NZ/AUS. Probably means everyone will get them by midnight tonight.

Lol imagine you paid money cause you thought that was the only way to get them, then a day later they're like nah jk it's free.

Makes me glad I'm waiting.

I like these now, undoubtedly. Glad we have them. 
 

the only nitpick is that wall of guitar sound on See You, reminds of the problems I had with cali/nine. 
 

Cut Me Off is a sleek song, cool tempo throughout.

I welcome all the clown reactions. 
 

people are taking it better here than Reddit at least. It just wasn’t my cup of tea

For what it’s worth I like Mark’s part of the song.

Sorry for distracting from the main topic, I’m just messing around. 

I really like the cut me off chorus

I don’t love Dance With Me for whatever reason I can’t put my finger on/in.  I think it’s the way the guitar sounds outside of the breakdown? I really can’t figure it out.

 But the writing of it is 1,000x better than these two new ones, is why there’s a huge gap there.  It’s unique enough, these two new ones are pretty generic

For me DWM is a lot like SOOHM or even First Date. I enjoy it, it's a great song, but it's primarily written to be a fun single. Which is fine with me, but not gonna change my life. Thus, my 9/10

I think I prefer CMO out of the two. Nothing much to say other than that it’s a catchy and fun. It definitely sounds like a NINE outtake or something from a session after. Any possibility they took a song from the scrapped NINE follow-up and got Tom to redo guitar parts? The lyrics sound like something from whatever Gen Z artist of the week Travis collabs with. I will say Tom can pull it off better than Matt “Dark Lord” Skiba. I swear some of the lyrics Matt would sing in blink-182 just remind me of that episode where SpongeBob tries to be normal lol.

Speaking of lyrics, you can tell See You definitely came from Tom. You even got the classic “Witching hour” line lol. Sounds like an early-AVA style song but blinkified. Can’t really say much about this one either but I’m warming up to it. I really like the verses but I’m not sure on the chorus yet. Whole song vaguely reminds me of Feeling This, like the chorus melody randomly sneaks in to the synth riff and this chorus as well. It doesn’t sound straight up like Feeling This, but it reminds me of the melody, or at least the vibe of it. 

Both songs are alright but I see why they were left off the album, could’ve replaced maybe Hurt or the short songs but they still feel like their own thing. CMO would’ve been a solid single tho.

Now that my honeymoon phase has worn off prematurely now (thanks blink) and expectations of continued masterpieces follow up to all this, Cut Me Off is seriously a fine tune.  Simple? generic? Yes.  But it is definitely something I would listen to on a random day off and jam throughout.

Definitely side project vibes, but a good song nonetheless.  See You isn't bad, just not as much my thing.  

Both ava-creatures though.

I haven’t had a chance to listen to these properly yet but See You definitely sounds the better of the 2 for me. I stupidly didn’t bring my headphones away with me so I’ve only heard them through my iPhone speaker.
