5 Years Behind is the debut full-length studio album by American pop punk band Thick.
According to the review aggregator Metacritic, 5 Years Behind received "generally favorable reviews" based on a weighted average score of 77 out of 100 from five critic scores. [1] Natalia Barr of Consequence of Sound scored this album a B, comparing the band favorably to Blink-182, summing up that this music is "subverting pop punk stereotypes by singing about their own experiences as women in the music scene and beyond, while still using the same drum patterns, chord progressions, and anthemic sing-alongs that brought the genre so many adoring fans in the first place". [2] At Paste, Natalia Keogan gave this album 7.8 out of 10, praising the band's exploration of contemporary femininity and ending that the group's criticism of patriarchy via "angry, catchy punk is as viable as ever". [3] Under the Radar's Andy Von Pip scored 5 Years Behind an 8 out of 10, calling it "an album imbued with a swashbuckling attitude, that fizzes with passion employing empathy, charm, humor, and, where necessary, rage".
