Many people don’t know how just how close All Time Low were from walking away from the music scene. After a dark cloud surrounded the band shortly after the release of Wake Up, Sunshine regarding allegations of misconduct, there was a bit of uncertainty of how or if All Time Low could move forward. After the allegations were deemed to be fabricated, the band decided to move forward with the release of their ninth studio album, Tell Me I’m Alive and a re-recording of their earlier material called Forever Sessions Volume 1 in hopes of rekindling their love for making music together. In an interview with Rolling Stone, the band shared that this period, “…was at a time when I think we weren’t sure if we wanted to make another album. I think maybe you do this long enough and you’re like, ‘Maybe we’ve told the story. Maybe we’ve said all that needed to be said, and maybe there’s not much left for us to say.’ But we’ve had this newfound sense of belonging to the band and this love for it that was rekindled, and we said, ‘I think there’s another one in the tank.’ It’s a good thing that All Time Low decided to regroup, as Everyone’s Talking! ends up being some of the band’s best material to date.
