2020: The New Album

Dude. Cut it out.

Can we talk about the cover art for a second? For a band that put so much thought and effort in the WAN cover art just a few short years ago, I can't imagine how they wouldn't put in a little more effort? It's hard to imagine anyone thinking that this was a good idea. It's cringe worthy.

They used to value photo art for the albums. Keep the Faith, Crossroads, These Days, Crush, hell even Destination Anywhere had cool, themed photography. Bounce had some nice shots. But with every album since Bounce, their photography has gone downhill.

Does anyone have info about 2020s photography? This is garbage. Is this really JBJ seeing a pic of JFK, taking a quick and ridiculous picture and telling his record label creatives to make it happen? "Let's make it black and white so people know I am serious". Who else is surprised they didn't color spot the flag in his glasses?

For a second I thought Limitless just might be the best they are capable of at this point, but after thinking about this cover, like the cover, I think it's just as much effort as they are willing give.

Probably. And it's black and white because you don't notice Jon's gray hair as much

The photo of Jon is awful. OK keep the cover if you really have too but the actual picture of Jon is terrible.

tribute to NYC

I mean with the idea of naming the album 2020, the cover is appropriate. To me it shows a bit of attitude, which I also see in the released songs, and I consider this a plus.

Also, I like the production used for the songs. It's compact and if the whole album will sound like that, I'll prefer it over THINFS (too poppy guitars, e.g. DITT) and WAN album.

prefer that version. Not so rushed as has some extended interludes.

Theres a word JBJ says in this song "choking" and it sounds like classic JBJ.

I honestly don't hear any attitude in limiltess other than Jon crapping out a lead single. He said about a decade ago himself that he could write these kind of songs in just 3 to 5 minutes and I strongly believe he didn't spend more time on this one here.
And I'd really like to know where Limitless sounds less poppy than anything on THINFS or WAN. With Unbroken, yeah I get that a bit. But Limitless is as artifical and bubble-gum pop as BJ can get these days.

After listening to this, I get the feeling that life is, I don't know, limitless?

Nice job editing this one! I think it says a lot when the original video is outdone that fast by a fan edit (just like it happened with WWWU).

Great job!
