Late 2015, Modern Baseball released an EP titled "MOBO Presents: The Perfect Cast EP featuring Modern Baseball". And over time, it's become my favorite Modern Baseball release, and from what I can tell, it seems like others are beginning to feel that way as well.
In this video I talk about how Modern Baseball wrote their best album or technically EP but that's not as catchy. I discuss EP itself, where the band was at when it came out, the lyrics, and even the album artwork.
I'm interested to see in 5 years if the Perfect Cast is still my favorite MOBO album. All I know is, I'll still be missing them. I hope your day is well.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sup my mates, hope you've all been well. If you're reading all the way down here, I have a secret. I recorded a podcast with Eric from Heart Attack Man and it'll be going up late this week. It'll be the kickoff for the Matesclub Podcast. I can't wait to show you all. Thank you all so much. -Nate
fav song off The Perfect Cast?
The only correct answer is the thrash particle.
the waterboy returns 100%
And beyond is such a quirky little fun song
Alpha Kappa always slaps
Alpha Kappa The Fall of Troy the Movie Part Deux
The thrash particle is such a special song
One of the best songs of the 2010’s imo
It hits different dude, so so different
th-cam.com/video/qCjqhPfZ9Fg/w-d-xo.html
"SOOOOOO IS THIS THE HOOK YOU WANTED!!!!"
The best part of "The Thrash Particle" is imagining Brens partner getting dug out by someone else and Bren crying while wrong "HERWZ THAT HOOK YOU WANTED" like the biggest baby while using their emo tears to wank.
I still can’t believe “how do I tell a girl I want to kiss her” was one of Brendans first songs it’s so simple it’s great
I miss Jake asking the crowd what they had for breakfast at every show
asking the kids what they are for breakfast
@@SCBLGamingFilm nice
Here I am Valero bathroom
@@NateTheMateForever who’s paid to keep these things cliche?
@@bradenhargus9847 Bury me in New York state
I got into the band after they broke up and I'm so sad I'll never see them live.
Just to be clear I don't want them to continue the band if they don't want to I just wish I could have seen them while they were still preforming.
You seem cool Quinn. Hope you have an awesome one
Dude same, its such a painful thing, especially cause they're from my hometown
Dude me too!!! ;(
The water boy returns stopped me from killing myself this EP is so close to my heart
3 years later and this comment resonates with me.
the same goes for me❤
Never clicked so fast, Modern Baseball is my favorite band ever
Same though 😭
appreciate you my mate
MOBO is the only band that'll ever bring me to tears at the thought of never hearing a new song from them. MOBO was/is such an important band to me and I am forever grateful to them.
And Beyond is actually one of my fave MOBO songs of all time. that “Are you hearaaaa keep going” in the beginning gets me
You and I have come such a long way
@@NateTheMateForever 10/10 it also just kinda feels bigger compared to a lot of their other stuff. like i feel it could be the outro song to a rom com
The lyrics "Saw you, went home
drank myself silly in the basement alone" from Alpha Kappa hit me so hard every time.
I never close onlyfans so fast .
You subscribed to my OF?
@@NateTheMateForever Yes. Nate feet pics
@@NateTheMateForever nate the 'bate
Bren’s little chuckle at the beginning of …And Beyond is one of the best Mobo moments of all time
100% their laugh gets me every time
So lucky I caught the Holy Ghost tour with Joyce Manor and Thin Lips.
that tour lineup was so fire.
There’s never such thing as too much MoBo content
I kinda wanna make a video about this MoBo song they never released. The song is called “scared”
@@NateTheMateForever Oh I’m really looking forward to that man
@@NateTheMateForever looking forward!!
@@NateTheMateForever where can I find that song?
@@jaydig3288 you cant unfortunately
thrash particle still gives me goosebumps
it still hurts
Absolutely. If you’ve been alive long enough anyone can identify with the content
Love these videos so much
Love your videos too dude. Thank you for commenting and watching
Cool seeing you here. I recently found your channel and really enjoy your content.
Damn..started following both of you a while ago but was not expecting this crossover
i listened to this ep and then heard the context of it later, and it really is very special. some of the lyrics sting a bit more knowing that this was kind of when things started to fall apart for bren, and u can really hear it in his voice, especially on thrash particle. while holy ghost will still always be my favorite, perfect cast is a very close runner up. and honestly, as much it hurts to know that there won’t be any more from them, i think just another face was the perfect way to lay modern baseball to rest. will always love these dorks
i’m great at getting into bands years after they have broken up. got into this entire scene in the last year & i miss mobo like i was there from the beginning, i can’t imagine what it’s like to have actually seen them grow. i was in middle school/early high school when mobo was around so i never would have thought to give them a second thought even if i knew who they were. bummer but maybe one day they can pull a surprise reunion like MCR. we can hope
I still believe that they'll maybe pull an American Football and come back after like ten years lol
I was and I guess still am upset that I missed the Brand New/Front Bottom/Modern Baseball concert, that’s just the best lien up I’ve ever seen 😭
saw them in corpus cristi!
Was supposed to see them a second time right before they broke up... was so sad it literally hits hard to this day. Their music defined a huge part of my senior year in high school and listening to them or thinking about them gives me this crashing wave of nostalgia. Makes me want to relive those days so badly. Here’s to MoBo.
I'd do anything to see them live @ chain reaction again. Jake was sooo funny between songs haha
Only other person I've seen giving this ep the recognition it deserves
this EP was pretty much flawless, thank you for this! missing this band :(
have a good friday connor. thank you!
Nothing angers me more than knowing this won’t end up on trending when it deserves it
Why isn’t there an emo trending page on TH-cam?
@Ryan H then how come Spotify so popular 🧐 checkmateeeee baby
The thrash particle is like Bren tried to write a song in a way that Jake would have wrote it, but with that Bren extra sincerity. It just hurts
I really appreciate how you drew the connection between the EP and Holy Ghost. My favorite song from the album Hiding makes me reflect on this time where Brendan was feeling alone.
“Are you hiding or have I abandoned you?”
The song is sung by Jake, and it’s the last one he sings on the record. And how much the band was doing at the time I wonder if he feels a little guilt about how hard the band was going during that time. Connecting it to with Nameless Ranger I completely agree it’s a reflection on how Brendan was just starting to feel like he was growing out of MOBO.
Thrash Particle is my favorite song on the EP.
Nate this is one of your best videos for me, and this is my favorite Mobo release as well.
Fell in love with this band because of the thrash particle. It’s so overwhelming and emotional in such a cathartic wayway.
i never really got into the band history, i just listened to their most popular songs and found lyrics very relatable, now with all this info i’m definitely going to give this ep a good listen, great video!!
you're in for a treat and i envy you
makes me so happy. wish i could listen to it again for the first time to see what it's like
7 years now and theres somehow a glimmer of hope with the new demos and 10 year anniversary of Youre Gonna Miss It All
The thrash particle is one of the most beautiful songs I have ever heard
How Modern Baseball modernized baseball
Never end the Mobo content please, helps the rest of us get through the breakup too
I been waiting on this one, wild coincidence I watched your original Mobo trilogy videos just last night and listened to Sports this morning because of it
crying as I’m watching this god i miss them i hope brens okay
This is the only channel I have notifications turned on for
I literally just listened to The Perfect Cast for the first time yesterday and have been obsessing over it ever since, thank you so much for your amazing content!
I don’t listen to their music at all. But the documentary was very moving and has always stuck with me. I honestly have never met anyone who has liked modern baseball. Seeing all of these comments of them having a huge fan base is news to me. Kudos to them. The doc was so sad. I hope nothing but the best for them. And all humans. ☮️❤️
Honestly this is by far my favorite collection of songs they've released. Every single song is so good
Never clicked on a video fast after reading MOBO in the title
i miss them sm but videos like this make me feel a little better :,)
Dude i love everything you make.
I love you!!
a truly phenomenal collection of songs.
off the charts good
I’ve had this album on repeat lately, I’m glad you covered it :) you always make the best content
feel so lucky to have seen them live in early 2017 on their uk tour, must have been weeks before the breakup. I agree thrash particle has to be on of their best tracks, up there with mass and its cold out here for me! another quality video man, long live mobo
"you're gonna miss it all" is pretty much the soundtrack of my late secondary school years. Feels weird listening back every now and then. Love these videos
Been looking forward to this video for a long time
Aw that makes me really happy. I hope you have a great day!
God I love this EP. I’ve listened to it so many times.
We miss them so much
Crying to this.
this is my FAVORITE album from them. The Perfect Cast is perfection.
peak MOBO
I am so thankful for MoBo, especially for Holy Ghost and this EP. I am struggling a lot lately and MoBos music showed me that it‘s okay to not have it all figured out at 20.
i''m so glad you are still making mobo videos
this point mobo is not a band its a concept. its the perfect rendition of lyrics and instruments to perfectly describe growing up, teenage insecurity, growing up, and being content on not knowing what you are doing. they will always be my favourite band. and sure i may not listen to them every day like i use to but their music is everything to me and always will be
The Thrash Particle was my first Modern Baseball song, such a good good tune
What a good first song to hear by them
@@NateTheMateForever the subtle lyric changes in the song are what get me. Like "didnt watch your ex's set" to "couldnt watch your ex's set" and "i cant seem to remember where or when" to "i dont wanna remember there or then"
I'm a simple man. I see Nate the mate I click.
Thank you for your simplicity. Appreciate you
@5 minute mark what is being discussed is spot on by the narrator. As someone who got stuck in one of those alleys personally - the worst part is once that everything has been sorted out - the friends that you are supposed to be able to count on are the first to distance themselves. I get that there are scenarios where that's just fin and makes sense - a lot of the times people just do what's easiest and smooth selfishly. I had so so many friends - during Covid - somebody please keep an eye on Bryn....right now is when he needs people the MOST
Just wanted to say this video was phenomenal. I saw MoBo on tour with Brand New in El Paso and I remember being in the crowd at that show thinking about how much it meant to me seeing TFB and MoBo at the same time. Seeing the tour poster in the video gave me a wave of nostalgia and I wanted to thank you for that.
Do a pinegrove episode
Nate loves pinegrove
Yes, please!
Oh I will. Katie’s my real life friend and she’s right. I love that band. I play them a lot when I go to drew and Katie’s house
@@NateTheMateForever Sweet! I saw Brendans Pinegrove sweatshirt in this video and made me think of it.
Will you do videos on The Nameless Ranger EP, some of their singles and their shared albums with Marietta and The Hundred Acre Wood? That’d be a great way to complete the set imo
possibly! if people would want that
1000% with 19:48, if they were making music but Bren or any other member was internally hating it, I wouldn't want them to forcefully continue. Thank you for another amazing video Nate!
thanks kyle. appreciate the constant support
great video! also props for respecting bren’s preferred pronouns
Of course! Just glad I was aware before I made this.
They were bigger than music... they hit the souls of many lost people... goodbye mobo
Man, your content is so so good. Please never stop
i’ve seen them live four times, craziest shows were the brand new show (crazy seeing them in a huge venue - i queued in line for these tickets for hours) and their last show in philly (i went to school where they dropped out) & so glad i was around for the perfect cast during my late teens
Every mobo vid you make is perfection love u Nate
NOTHING makes me happier these days than a new video on ur channel I stg
awww i appreciate Ellie
I was hoping for some music theory/production info since thats what the title insinuates the video is about. Still a good video though
Apologize if you felt misled. Glad you still liked it though
The best are never gone...
legends never die
@@NateTheMateForever you do these documentary style videos bro...how do u do them??? I have some many different bands I want to talk about and how much they mean to me. You've inspired me to start up my own channel . But I don't know how to start . I want to talk about the band Beach Bunny. Know them???? They are amazing and very talented .
Recently grabbed this EP on vinyl and I’m so happy to hold it with me forever. Without a doubt MoBo’s best work
Was lucky to see this band multiple times. All with killer lineups.
Front Bottoms, Modern Baseball, Brand New.
Hurry, Marietta, Spraynard, Modern Baseball.
Pity Sex, Mobo, TWIABP
Fake Cult, Porches, Mobo
I am very stubborn and I'm not giving up hope. American Football came back after 13 years and I really hope after a while Modern Baseball will have some sort of revival
dang.. that's true...
Hey I genuinely enjoy what you do. Your videos go really in depth and elaborate deeply on whatever the subject matter is. To be honest, I never really listened to this ep, but after watching I queued it up and really loved it.
If you ever decide to make a Patreon, I'd be happy to support.
im glad i was able to watch these guys play; but so unlucky that i didn't know who they were or their music that much when i saw them. Glad i started listening after that show, but so bittersweet.
Very cool you got to see them live before they called it quits
It was always my favourite modern baseball release. It makes me cry every time i hear it
What’s your fav song off it?
@@NateTheMateForever probably the thrash particle, but yet again they're all great
Been waiting for this, love your vids so much. You’ve shown me so many other good bands.
I’m so glad you spoke about the art! Amazing video
Have a good one Julia. Thank you!
Dude. You’re absolutely right, this album is so fucking good. And this video was awesome, pat yourself on the back and make some more!
I appreciate it! More vids coming soon
Really excited for the podcast! Hope you’re keeping well! 🧡
thank you Sian!
The Goofy Movie appreciation alone is enough to make this a great EP but it helps that the music is good - I was lucky enough to see them live once right before they split. Great video !
Right? Ugh goofy movie will always pull at my heart strings man
Goofy tries so hard to be a good dad to max
love this ep with all my heart, and it's still crazy to me that I got meet Jakes parents(they were super sweet) before him at a slaughter beach show
So glad I saw them as many times as I could (4 times).
MoBo shows are something I will tell my kids about. Just everyone having so much fun and singing in unison ❤️
Not my favorite release by them but it's up there, the thrash particle helped me so much
Fav MoBo release?
@@NateTheMateForever Holy ghost is the one I usually go to as it helped me the most with my mental health and coping but Sports is my favorite musically
@@NateTheMateForever also thanks for replying your videos are amazing and they've introduced me to alot of new bands, keep up the good work
Talking about The Strength and Weakness collab would be a great video, mobo and Marietta + some others, would love to see it
that was a cool collab
This was always my favorite.
I knew it wasn´t a hiatus when they came over to The Netherlands for they´re EU tour and Brandon wasn´t there. But i could say i was one of the last humans on earth to see this band live in a verry weird line up. People from the crowd where sining the songs on stage, the touring bands where singing theyre songs. It was amezing!
This made me sad but happy at the same time! Hope you take care
I'm so glad somebody is FINALLY singing this EP's praises - absolutely the best MOBO album
highest tier
Love your content so much! Been subbed sense your hobo johnson vid and you've introduced me to so many new sounds that I love today, couldn't thank you enough
Been collaborating with my favorite lyricist Cam for The Waterboy Returns was a true gift to me as a depressed high schooler.
I know im late, but i just discovered this band back in April of 2020. I stopped listening to rock for a while but recently that's all i have been listening to.
Do you listen to rap more than rock?
@@NateTheMateForever for a while yeah,, plus where i was living at the time every bar/club was only playing rap. the past two years i mostly been listing to Old rap/rock that i grew up on and a lot of comedy podcast. ......COVID/TIKTOK made me want to branch out and try new music
I got to see them live before their break up. They opened up with a killers cover, then an awesome set.
sounds wild
I miss this band so so so so so so so so so much!!!!!!!!!!!
wish they still had fun doing it
The thrash particle.
Hey Nate, I just wanted to say I really enjoy what videos of yours I’ve seen, and I completely agree on your views of Mobo and this EP in particular. I was going through a difficult time when this EP, Tripping in the Dark and Holy Ghost were coming out so I have a lot of strong emotional connections to them. I just subscribed to you and I’m looking forward to watching some of your past videos as well as any future ones.
thanks my friend, i really appreciate the kind words. hope you enjoy my back catalog, lmk what you think
I never really got into their later stuff. Sports is one of my favorite albums of all time. Not sure what made me fall off them. Guess I fell out of emo a little bit when I went away to college back at the end of 2014. Looking forward to listening to this and their last record today. Stay good king 👑
Thank you Eric. Hope you enjoy this ep and have a nice day
Speaking of Cam from Sorority Noise, I think that might be the one band that I miss more than Modern Baseball
Sorority Noise never should have ended
Amazing work as always man :D
I love you Nate
I ignored my class for this and I don't think I regret it
love you Karl
@@NateTheMateForever you too, mate, keep doing what you do
Man, I missed them so much
this video made me so fucking happy
