    A Solid TBS Release
  

*by S***A on Reviewed in the United States on March 23, 2014*

It's a solid Taking Back Sunday album.I don't feel prepared to write this review because I can't pinpoint exactly what isn't great about the album. It's a good ablum, but there's just something there that keeps it from being TBS's strongest release.There's definitely a more mature tone to the album. Harmonies and vocal overlaps are there throughout the album, but in the end it leaves me wanting more of the older style TBS.Another little things that I think bothers me about Happiness Is is the way the album swings back and forth between heavier/rock/punk tracks and lighter/pop tracks. Not that it's bad to blend the two, they alternate slower verses with uptempo choruses in some of my favorite tracks here (Flicker Fade, Better Homes and Gardens), but the flow of the album overall seems to get your fist pumping with one track then slow down the next leaving Happiness Is feeling a bit disjointed.Flicker, Fade bringing a reminder of everything I've grown to love of TBS over the years while adding in some elements from Straylight Run to bring something new to the overall sound.We Were Younger Then is another track I love, but halfway through they fade into a bridge that basically transitions into a completely different song with the same lyrics that ends out the track (similar to what Coldplay did with some tracks from Viva La Vida). It's even followed up by the very Coldplay-esque album closer, Nothing At All.Better Homes and Gardens and Beat Up Car are two solid rock tracks that find TBS reaching in slight new directions while still sounding familiar. Stood A Chance is a strong punk anthem that'll get you dancing. They Don't Have Any Friends brings more rock to the album although I don't feel it has the bite that it was intended to.All The Way takes nearly 40 seconds to slowly fade in and get started and while It Takes More only takes fifteen seconds to start, it takes over a minute to fade out. The two tracks tone things down on the record and help add to the mature tone, but for me, they slow down the flow of the album and I tend to want to skip over them. If I resist the urge to skip, I end up enjoying the tracks, but they don't jump out for me.As I listen through, I tend to hear points where I feel like I've heard that beat or riff somewhere before. We Were Younger Then is one of my favorite tracks from Happiness is, but the progression as it starts off keeps reminding me of the band Showbread. I wouldn't say this is a negative though, but as the track starts up I get distracted thinking... this sounds so familiar, where have I heard that?Overall, I really enjoy the album and recommend it.

    Best EMO band out there, I bought all their CDs
  

*by H***R on Reviewed in the United States on October 29, 2019*

Taking Back Sunday is one of the best EMO bands out there.  I wish I had gotten to know them sooner.  I have purchased all of their CDs and hope to see them again in person (took me until 2019 to go see them!)

    Continually evolving sound...
  

*by G***N on Reviewed in the United States on March 25, 2014*

I can't say I agree that this is TBS's old sound reborn,  but that's not necessarily a bad thing. The band has evolved and so has their sound. There are some really catchy songs on here that ARE distinctly Taking Back Sunday.  There are also a couple of somewhat forgettable tunes by TBS standards. Overall,  if you are a fan you will very likely enjoy this album.
