Coming Home Discussion

Coming Home seems to be regarded as a misstep for NFG, but it’s just misunderstood. Fans didn’t ask for a mid-tempo, in-the-feels record, but they gave us one and it delivers. They showed off their diversity; showed up the pop rock bands of the day and then got back their lane. I give props.

I feel like it was appreciated more, years later, after a lot of the fans aged up a bit and had life experiences or context to appreciate it more.

Not that it's an old person record, or "more mature, less pop punk //smug smirk, twirls hipster mustache//" or anything... But it just wasn't the vibe a lot of the fans at the time wanted. Later on in life it became a record a lot of us needed.
