    With Common Courtesy...love it or hate it as you will...A Day To Remember is getting started all over again. And the album ensures that this band hasn't yet seen the peak of its popularity.

    It's hard not to find something to like here no matter where your tastes may lie.

    There’s no question Common Courtesy will at least partially satisfy eager fans, because if nothing else, it’s a textbook A Day To Remember record. Whether or not that’s good or bad is entirely up to you.

    Impressive act of defiance or not, when the dust has settled, this will also be rightly remembered as simply a great album. [19 Oct 2013, p.52]

    Common Courtesy is not the end of this band. If anything, it’s their new beginning.

    Let me make something abundantly clear: This is not my kind of music. Pop punk and the slightly softer side of metalcore usually fall flatLet me make something abundantly clear: This is not my kind of music. Pop punk and the slightly softer side of metalcore usually fall flat for more, and are extremely uninteresting or just straight up bad. Let me make something else clear: This album is great. Whatever ADTR did well before, they do even better here. What's more, is that a lot of their shortcomings are either fixed or strengthened. The pop is sweeter, the metalcore is more brutal than ever, and every member of the band is top of their game. Every song is good and adds to the album. It's creative, cohesive, and for me just a bit of a guilty pleasure. I can't help but admire it all, and dare I even say, love this album. ADTR have made their magnum opus.… Full Review »
