Making of Handwritten Video

Handwritten sounds amazing and I got goosebumps with that clip of Here Comes My Man! Only 5 and a half weeks now

Im having trouble viewing using my facebook login. It keeps telling me to re-enter the passwords

Ive now managed to watch the video. Handwritten sounds like a good song. But to second Holland's comment Brian is focusing far too much on the fact he wrote the lyrics by hand. I do the same with songs I write its no big deal.

The new songs sound awesome but Im still not a fan of the album title. Handwritten is far too boring and uninteresting. It sounds like the title of a Damien Rice (acoustic) record rather than a punk rock one. I'm not overly keen on the album artwork either. I find that a little boring.

25th anniversary box set edition

My expectations for the album have just been multiplied by shitloads

handwritten and too much blood sound so good.

This quote really stood out to me so I thought I'd make this and share. I need to stop watching it, haha o_o

^I really like that quote. As an aspiring writer, I definitely get what Brian's talking about. And how he says that every word is handwritten, he's working with his hands, that made me think of "Just trying to find a better life for me and my own, just some rest for these tired working fingers." It gives a different feel to those lyrics.

I like that quote as well.

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR POSTING THIS! I actually follow this blog but hadn't seen the post yet.

My ears are exploding right now. Oh my gosh oh my gosh oh my gosh!!! This album is going to be epic. EPIC! I have to admit, when Too Much Blood started playing at the end, I got a little teary eyed. I already saw the lyrics, but to hear Brian singing them, the emotion and everything, wow. Just wow!

It's PERFECTION! This album is going to kill me. IT'S GOING TO KILL ME! Too Much Blood is the song that's going to make me cry, like Bring It On did when AS came out. That song still makes me cry sometimes. Now I'm going to obsessively watch this video for the next four weeks and six days until the album comes out.

I loved when Too Much Blood came on in the video. I thought it was a perfect way to end the video. The part that is playing as the video ends is probably my favorite part of that song. I can't wait to hear the rest of us. You can hear a 90s vibe throughout that song sooooo frickin much!

I know! It does have a cool 90s vibe to it. And the last part they played is my favorite too...so far. Those lyrics are so incredible. I don't know how Brian does it. He writes these songs that so much of us can relate to, and they all seem so personal, it's like he understands more about people than anyone should. That probably sounds crazy and maybe it is, but I think Brian just gets it. I'm rambling, I know, but jeez, Too Much Blood is phenomenal!

Just reading these last few posts have made me even more excited for July 24. (is that even possible?)

I watched the video once and I remember liking what I heard - a lot. (Forgot what it sounds like now though )

Listen to it again! I didn't think I could get more excited either, but now I'm ready to spontaneously combust.

"I AM NO ANGELLL BUT I GOT NOTHING TO HIDE"

^ the way Brian sings that, it's already up there with my favorite lines

Anyone else hear the 59 sound riff (around 1:23) in handwritten or is it just me
