"Time and time again I've tried to get my act together." I relate to that on a whole other level. PUP is the soundtrack to every 18-28 year old bum who never seems to do anything as well as his friends, who isn't as good with girls as his friends, who isn't as well off in life as he thought he'd be by now, who's parents see as a loser, who's only joys in life are slowly fading away as they become less and less potent with each day that goes by, each beer downed, each pill swallowed and each joint smoked. For everyone of us losers PUP is there. Maybe you don't see the light at the end of the tunel and think you'll forever be a pathetic use of potential and maybe you will. But at least you can be listening to some bomb ass music while you waste your life away. Thanks PUP!
One of the greatest, if not, the greatest songs Pup has ever released. Genuinely the lyrics meld so well with the instrumentation and the quiet at the end of the song shouts as loud as the rest of it. It brings me to tears. It brought me to tears when I heard it live. Thank you so much for making this song.
holy shit, you guys never get tired of holding some guy's on the internet opinion as something sacred? i just don't understand, do his ratings give you purpose in life lmao
Franz Grím well he's influent, and good reviews means new fans to discover their stuff, so it's a good thing. Hell, I first heard of Pup from theneedledrop, as is the case from many of my favorite bands
God this is amazing. The lyrics. The feeling. The music. The energy. Seriously one of the best bands out there atm, putting out amazing tracks. Stoked for the album. Can't wait!
Up on Scorpion Hill watching life Passing me by in the pale moonlight And I sat there forever, three sheets to the wind It's not helping my case, the state that I'm in But it's not how they told you My intentions were good I was just bursting apart like the end of the arc Holding on to whatever I could A square of light moves its way through the empty room Across the stained yellow carpet Like a ghost of myself in the afternoon Haunting my basement apartment I looked in to the mirror Hanging behind my door The glass was cracked and the man staring back He don't look like me anymore And if the world is gonna burn Everyone should get a turn to light it up Down and out, I've been on the rocks I've been having some pretty dark thoughts Yeah, I like them a lot Time and time again, well I've tried and failed To get my act together And I'll admit lately things really went off the rails I know that you deserve better But in the morning, as I was boarding The commuter train to work The boss was calling, he said: "There's been cutbacks and I'm sorry you're the first" And If I can't support the two of us How can I support a third? Down and Out, I've been on the rocks I've been having some pretty dark thoughts And I'm on the brink Fallin' deep into debt Fallin' deep into drink I can drown those regrets I don't have to think Now I'm working the night shift Asleep at the wheel I was bursting apart like a flame from a spark Thinkin 'Jesus, this can't be for real' My sweat soaked mattress Corner of the room Cigarettes and Matches In the fading afternoon And a picture my kid, ya he's smiling It's the first day of school She said: I found the gun, it was buried beneath Piles of clothes in the room where your son sleeps And I can't pretend, to know how this will end
And the thing is that these are the kind of things that give comfort. I’m not alone with my feelings and problems and just thing that I can relate to the themes of the song give me hope and courage to speak out and get help. Shit I don’t know. Well I do know but you know still yeah. Thank you and good luck to everyone. Speed and luck for most!

What's so good about PUP compared to so many other current bands is that they don't rely so heavily on their sound. They have a good sound, but that's just the start. They actually WRITE SONGS. So tired of the cool kid bands who sound like "they rock" and all the kiddos go nuts because they play their instruments in tune and on time and that's about it. Song writing. Underrated. Well done PUP.
Gotta listen to more local bands. There's bonafide poets in the Canadian Punk scene. Single Mothers/The Drew Thomson Foundation, Boy's Club, Mobina Galore, Dead Casettes for example.
been listening since TDIO. stoned as fuck on my back garden, finally not homeless after yet another 4 months. it was my 19th birthday yesterday, im feeling so so low, but you guys give me the motivation to pick myself up. i love to skate to your songs and they always help me when i find myself somehow sinking lower. love you PUP ❤️

The ending is one of the most beautiful parts of a song I've ever heard. Hearing it while watching a cloudy sky at dawn makes you think of the memories you'll miss forever. A sad feeling that is somehow full of happiness.
START: "Oh, another slow country inspired song? MIDDLE: Nope, we're angry, stressed and sad. Full steam ahead!" END: ".....I wasn't ready for this today....."
that's why I never listened to this fully before. it was too slow and country for me. two days before their concert I listened to it fully and it's been on repeat lol
I once had a really bad mental breakdown, for about 2 hours i was just breaking down. I didn’t have any that could get me out of it. It sparked from me and my friend having an argument with each other, I I just realized how bad of a person I am. But then I listened to this song and I must have listened to it 5 times before I was able to finally fall asleep and forget about my troubles for a little bit. So all in all thank you for giving me this little bit of joy
I cannot stop listening to this song since it came out. I lost a really good job in January, and I just wanna day this song got me all the feelings. Pup, I’m glad to have discovered you, and glad I got to see you in Austin.
Scrolling new releases on Amazon & stroll upon this. First off..... thanks for keeping it simple Rock/Folk. I'm in my mid 40s but unlike friends & family my music taste evolves with time. I love bands like Metallica, Sum 41, MeGaDeTh, D.R.I. & so many others from the late 80s-90s but!!! That doesn't mean I have to stay in that specific time & music genre. So I say.... thanks to you for showing my fellow Old Heads your Morbid Stuff.....😈
I remember the first few times I would listen to this I hated the beginning, but now months after not seeing it pop up I’m genuinely happy to be hearing it again. Amazing work guys ✌️
Just saw them last night in Portland. Made so many amazing memories and met some rad people.. sadly the night turned rough with harassment from strangers.. but this experience got me through it. And the pup blasting in my earbuds of course. :,)
Before they blew up I had a chance to see them live for 20$...was kinda busy so i figured I'd catch them next time....don't think there will be a next time...my only regret in life.

Aren't we all technically Brits somewhere down the line? @@shaniswriting
@@MrBrody420 I'm no geographer, historian or scientist but yes, I believe you're entirely correct.

PUP are an actual God-tier band, how the hell did it take me so long to discover them??
better late than never!
The important part is that you still discovered them!
I love them, I've had The Dream is Over on repeat for the last month - I'm driving my housemates crazy haha
On some real shit😂😂
I only found out about them through Dream Daddy in 2017. Best thing that's ever come out of torrenting a game
I woke up to this and I'm so happy
Me too
:)
Me three! Good morning guys. I hope you slept well. I had weeeeeeird dreams 😳
Same, made it worth waking up today
same actually. thanks university radio!

Casbah five years ago opening up for dirty nil. Lit show!!
I've seen em twice and both times it was the best gig I've been to
I get to go in one week in Cleveland! So damn excited!
I got to see them live last year, I lose my voice and hearing for 2 days. Don't regret a second of it :)

fuckin love pine point...
Up on Scorpion Hill watching life
Passing me by in the pale moonlight
And I sat there forever, three sheets to the wind
It's not helping my case, the state that I'm in
But it's not how they told you
My intentions were good
I was just bursting apart like the end of the arc
Holding on to whatever I could
A square of light moves its way through the empty room
Across the stained yellow carpet
Like a ghost of myself in the afternoon
Haunting my basement apartment
I looked in to the mirror
Hanging behind my door
The glass was cracked and the man staring back
He don't look like me anymore
And if the world is gonna burn
Everyone should get a turn to light it up
Down and out, I've been on the rocks
I've been having some pretty dark thoughts
Yeah, I like them a lot
Time and time again, well I've tried and failed
To get my act together
And I'll admit lately things really went off the rails
I know that you deserve better
But in the morning, as I was boarding
The commuter train to work
The boss was calling, he said: "There's been cutbacks and
I'm sorry you're the first"
And If I can't support the two of us
How can I support a third?
Down and Out, I've been on the rocks
I've been having some pretty dark thoughts
And I'm on the brink
Fallin' deep into debt
Fallin' deep into drink
I can drown those regrets
I don't have to think
Now I'm working the night shift
Asleep at the wheel
I was bursting apart like a flame from a spark
Thinkin 'Jesus, this can't be for real'
My sweat soaked mattress
Corner of the room
Cigarettes and Matches
In the fading afternoon
And a picture my kid, ya he's smiling
It's the first day of school
She said: I found the gun, it was buried beneath
Piles of clothes in the room where your son sleeps
And I can't pretend, to know how this will end
Thank you, sooo much
Shit. Song that got me going ''These are my thought's exactly and life I'm living right now.'' Kinda funny when that happens. Thanks Pup, seriously.
And the thing is that these are the kind of things that give comfort. I’m not alone with my feelings and problems and just thing that I can relate to the themes of the song give me hope and courage to speak out and get help. Shit I don’t know.

when you finally find a great band, check their tour dates just out of curiosity, and see they were in your city days b4 you discovered them 🤪🙏🏻
ive screamed this song till im crying multiple times. cheers
Hell yeah! Album of the year and it ain't even out yet!

my exact thoughts
This is their best song
This is punk rock. Thanks, Zach from 21842. Can't wait to see wait you guys again
Damn I felt this
Those are some of the best lyrics I've heard in a while. They tell a story and every stanza holds so much weight. Amazing job, y'all!

3:25s in, is one of the best pieces of music ever written imo
