@@CoryC321 I don't like criticising and I'm not here to criticise but I'll totally do that rn and I will be enjoying it - It is highly arguable to my taste for most of their songs and actually Imagine Dragons are better (in musical theory terms) than Foo Fighters, due to the lack of complexity of Foo Fighters' song writing abilities but if we are taking that to the side and leaving just musical taste judge their music then Everlong (if I'm saying that correctly) is the only one song I "partially" like (only the first part tho cos the rest sucks like any other Teen-Rock-AmericanPiemusicchoises-Grunge-PunkRock like songs that in the 80% have no complexity, or even effort put, in it)

And when I got it, I decided to make a comical song about earthquakes since I ran out of ideas, and we made it quite experimental by adding a ton other oddities from crashes, bathroom noises, whispering, and others. And as you know it, we made our own "A day in the life" styled song!
