Rearranging the Violent Things Track Listing

So Violent Things actually has two different tracklists: the one on Bandcamp, and the one that appears on streaming platforms like Spotify and Apple Music. However, I'm not satisfied with either of them, so here we go (thanks @clusterhugmp3 for partially inspiring me to do this after seeing your Razzmatazz track rearrangement)

My take on Violent Things' track order is as follows:

Better Than Me

Love At First Sight

Second Boys Will Be First Choice

Le Velo Pour Deux

If You Like It Or Not

Small Cuts

All Of The Drugs

Bike Ride

Visitation Of The Ghost

I Will, Tonight

The Nerve

Goodnight Socialite

Boring

Better Than Me - It's a banger. It's a little louder, it's fun, it sticks in your head and takes you right into the album without hitting you too hard right off the bat with the seriousness of some of it. The slightly extended instrumentals also help set up a good expectation for the sound of the record. It's just a great first impression, and when I send my friends an introductory song for them to try listening to The Brobecks it's usually this one

Love At First Sight - This had to be the second or third song at the very least, in my opinion. It's a standout on the album in terms of both its acoustic sound and lighter themes, and the record title itself is taken from it. It deserves this place. One of my goals for this track listing was also to somewhat balance the faster/quieter and lighter/darker songs, so this feels like a strong followup

Second Boys Will Be First Choice - Picking up the pace again after First Sight with a quicker song, and I think it ties well into the themes of both prior songs. Don't have as much to say about this one, except that I also think it aids in establishing the 'voice' of the album too seeing as its lyrics are in a dramatic narrative style. Also links back to later songs in a similar line to come

Le Velo Pour Deux + If You Like It Or Not - Two songs that I think are well-paired together in lyrics and sound, and here kind of round out the first 'act' of the album (I'm always thinking of things in terms of narrative structure. Sorry). If You Like It Or Not in particular feels like a good transition sonically to the next third of the album

Small Cuts, All Of The Drugs, and Bike Ride - The first third of the album contained relatively lighter or positive relationship-based songs, but here we start seeing some of the darker tracks on Violent Things. Small Cuts is a strong introduction, while All Of The Drugs and Bike Ride help expand on these new themes while offering variety in sound and pace. I kept the latter two together to preserve the sound transition between the two tracks, which you can find on the original Bandcamp listing of Violent Things

Visitation Of The Ghost - The conclusion to the middle of the album with a very standout, dramatic song. I also wanted to give it some distance from tracks like Better Than Me, Love At First Sight, Second Boys, and Goodnight Socialite, as all five in my head are the songs which would be singles if Violent Things had been an album structured/released that way. As it is here I think it's in a memorable place and once again is a good track to bridge the second and third acts

I Will, Tonight + The Nerve - The last section of Violent Things is a heavy one. I Will, Tonight serves as the final thematic and sonic breather before the rest of the album goes even harder, though it keeps that thread of darkness so as not to break the established pattern from the second act. The Nerve begins to ramp up the intensity carried over from Visitation. It's a relationship-centric song which helps connect the first third of Violent Things to this one, but the emotion is high and an excellent buildup to the last two songs

Goodnight Socialite - This song to me has always been the narrative finale of Violent Things, regardless of where it was placed in prior track listings. It drives home the darkness many of the other songs have had, and continues and uses the spite and anger touched upon in prior tracks. It also parallels the more directly narrative lyrics of Second Boys toward the beginning, sewing the album's story together nicely. This is just such a dramatic flourish of a song and ensures Violent Things doesn't fizzle out toward the end but rather goes out with a bang

Boring - Both existing track listings leave Boring as the final song, and I agree with this choice. It starts out as a more stripped down track, which marks a moment to process the intensity of Goodnight Socialite, but as the song goes on it builds and builds until the sound and emotion is crushing, larger-than-life the way some other songs before have been. It's not only a potential sequel to the pov character of Goodnight Socialite, but I also think it's fascinating as in my opinion it's the most universally relatable song on all of Violent Things. That stronger connection to world of the listener is really a nice bookend to leave off with. Through the progression of the outro especially, reality bleeds back into the fiction, and the song becomes a sendoff.

I hope this all made sense, and that you enjoyed reading!

Thanks @clusterhugmp3 for tagging me!

January: Buy American - Joywave

My top song for 2022! I had this on repeat when it came out.

February: Have You Ever Lit A Year On Fire? - Joywave

One of my early favorites off Cleanse.

March: Cyn City 2000 - Joywave

I don’t really remember what I was listening to in March, but I was probably on Cleanse lockdown. Also saw Joywave on the Cleanse tour!

April: Space Walk - Joywave

I remember frantically trying to memorize 77777 so I could ace the Joywave Heardle.

May: Stay Awake? - Bastille

I will admit I slept on GMTF until I saw Bastille live. Stay Awake is such a good concert opener.

June: Bad Thing - Kopps

A bop. This song being released was the start of me actually getting into Kopps.

July: Razzmatazz - iDKHOW

Preparing for Hellvetica. I really slept on Razzmatazz (the album) before then.

August: New Invention - iDKHOW

More preparing for Hellvetica

September: Coming Apart - Joywave

Hellvetica time!!!!! Superb concert opener. If Joywave takes Coming Apart off the setlist I will riot.

October: Endings - The Hoodies

The start of my almost exclusively listening to The Hoodies era. This song is *chef’s kiss*

November: Former Glory - The Hoodies

FORMER GLORY!!!!!!!

December: All I Want For Christmas Is You - The Hoodies

What can I even say about this? 100000/10. Daniel has range.
