There's this emo band called Mom Jeans. that a lot of people know about and like.. but also dislike.. but also probably still listen to them haha.
There's a whole lot to talk about with this band and I packed in as much as I could. If there's a facet or area you'd want me to zero in on and make another Mom Jeans video, I'd be down. Just tell me. I really do care about what you all have to think.
Mom Jeans blew up pretty fast after releasing their debut album Best Buds and it's been a steady upward trajectory ever since. Puppy Love felt underwhelming to me, but I'm interested to see what Sweet Tooth will sound like.
But yeah, I talk about a whole lot in the video, such as the recent Bart stuff and how they took a lot of inspiration from that Modern Baseball song haha. Love you all, I'll see you in the video.
Dang, it's almost Friday again already. Hope everyone has a safe, fun upcoming weekend.

Overall thoughts on Mom Jeans?
Hmu on the twitta @camerahat
Nate The Mate good band that ruined their career
I like the sister projects more at this point. I really think diving in on just friends would be a good idea. Their two albums are completely different in some ways. The live performance is unreal. Also prince daddy, natural flavor, loudmouth, snooze, grad life, etc. there’s a lot
I'm just a casual fan, I think they're fun
stop using my shit in your videos
Michael Oppmann they’re truly crafting their own little cult in the emo community haah
As someone not involved in online emo culture whatsoever, I had absolutely no idea people actively disliked this band.
me too
I had no idea anyone hated them. I can't conceive of someone hating such a great band.
it’s like people have differing opinions
for me i just think they're boring
they’re racist so...
@@sixheadedboy it's perfectly fine to have a different opinion but when you have a band putting forth music in a no offense manner it's kind of hard to justify such a visceral reaction to them. Like if your saying they are boring and just another emo band that isn't hatred it's indifference. If your saying they are racists then I can see where your coming from.
Now comes the question of are they putting forth music in a no offensive manner. Idk I don't give enough of a shit to find out but I enjoy the couple songs I've heard from them.
@@dnkmarci do you have Proof ?
As soon as the video hit me with the death cup riff I knew I have to watch
Death Cup will go down as a legendary emo anthem I swear haha
Dude.... You can't just play it's cold out here without warning. That song twinkles my daddies

Gonna be honest, this is the type of “cancelling” that leads to people not taking actually heinous accusations seriously
THANKYOU
Them trying to cancel bart for a thing he did when he was a freshman is just insane. He's a super nice guy now he's changed.
I was such a fart-faced kid my freshman year hahaha.
I can’t think of one person who hasn’t changed and grown since their freshman year
I know for sure everyone would hate me if I was online in my freshman year. I was horrible
Yeah, honestly Bart has helped me with stuff musically before and has always been open to having a conversation and i just find it really really fucked that he got cancelled over shit that happened when he was a kid.
Honestly facts !! I was such a bitch at 14. Who wasn’t a bitch at 14? 6-9 grade is when people are at their absolute worst.
It wasn't the fact that he did something in freshman year exactly it was the fact that he didn't own up to it. He tried to claim all of it was a lie.
Let's just smoke a bowl and talk about this later
I didn’t want it to end..
I just want to watch the office and turn in early
Tommy Bool tomorrow morning is a whole new fucking problem
Love y'all
Chris Steeley have a good day dude
the irony at 6:43 is incredible because that one chord movement makes up more than half of all midwestern-inspired emo music. Basically anything off Sports and most of YGMIA uses the maj9 or maj7 of the IV chord. Most songs from the first American Football album use that. Most songs from DIARY use that chord. Foxing, The World Is a Beautiful Place, Sorority Noise, Marietta, The Hotelier, The Front Bottoms ALL use that chord frequently. If you wanted you could make a compilation of that chord appearing in popular emo songs and it would be several hours long. Its musical characteristics make it fit perfectly with the themes of a lot of emo songs, so much so that it is almost an integral part of emo harmony. It’s so popular that this single chord is increasingly used in surrounding genres like more pop punk style emo, heavier / hardcore stuff like Dogleg etc, and indie rock bands like car seat headrest going for that sound. So to see people attack them “as a musician” for having a common characteristic of the genre is so ridiculous, it’s literally the equivalent of saying “I hate Modern Baseball because all their lyrics are about feelings and relationships and stuff”.
same thing could be said with the rhythms too, where it's like they anticipate the end of the first measure and then complement it with syncopation. it would be cool to see a band use more niche chords and extensions in their music, especially acting as counterpoint to a melody
Yeah I agree. I can understand the frustration with Puppy Love being pretty much more of the same, but Best Buds has quite a bit of variety between all the songs even if they rely heavily on the same cadd9 to open g chord. Also the bass work on the first album is great at filling out the mix as a trio at the time (see the breakdown on Girl Scout Cookies).
Two Bears High Fiving it’s crazy how bass can be such an adored part of so many other rock genres but given so little praise or attention in a lot of guitar driven emo music. best buds does have some great bass AND drums on nearly every track
You get it
Thanks man! Now I have 6 chords to play with!
Several things:
- they’ve addressed their early stuff and admitted that yes it was mobo rip off but they don’t try to profit off of it, just trying to learn how to play together, experimenting with writing lyrics. It’s not available for purchase or streaming that benefits them.
- i’ve never seen them be anything but super supportive of marginalized groups. There are interviews where they speak about their own privilege and how they use that to promote women/lgbt+/poc in the scene.
- the whole bart situation is absolutely fucked I really don’t think that he should have been crucified for acting immaturely as a literal child. The girl who accused him was also exposed for participating in harmful behavior herself recently. I really hope he continues in the music industry because I honestly believe that he is a good person.
- This band has my support and they probably always will they mean a lot to me personally, and other people in my life. Every interaction i’ve had with them and their team has been awesome and genuine.
Preach, especially about the accusations against him. It was all very high school and felt like that individual just had a personal bad experience with him that lead them to take that action.
every band in cirecs consist of some of the nicest ppl ever
yep first show i ever went to in Minneapolis of theirs was an awesome experience. Guys stayed after the show to take pictures and chat. super nice dudes
Amazing take dude
Trannies are not marginalized. They are the most overrepresented group in America today.
Hey about their old songs: Im pretty sure they've addressed this in the past. They wanted to start writing songs but were bad at it so when they first started writing, they just ripped off MOBO and TFB (Basically took riffs and melodies to write their own lyrics over). It was not supposed to be serious and they definitely didn't think people would listen. When MOBO caught wind of it and weren't happy, MJ took the songs down.
if a band wants to profit off the music they make. They'll post it on streaming services and advertise it on their socials. The only way to find these old MJ songs is to search up TH-cam and listen to them on an account unrelated to MJ. They don't want to profit off this music anymore.
What's kinda wierd is why is the album public in the first place, but at the end of the day, musicians get inspired from the music of others. People develop their sounds differently, whether its building one from scratch, using already existing techniques, or morphing the sound of someone else to their liking.
That makes sense to me, music inspires music and you have to start somewhere. I'm sure they didn't even really think a lot of people , let alone Modern Baseball, were going to hear that song.
People try to meme and shout "PLAY JORTS" at shows and Eric usually responds "never gonna happen" they're really trying to bury it
They definitely did the right thing because they don't have any of their old songs on Spotify. If they washed to make money off it, they would (bc my dumbass would listen). + they had to start somewhere. They're not profiting and not claiming originality, I say that's more than most celebrities nowadays would do
Imagine trying to cancel someone for being a bully when they were 14-15, that being 10 years ago. You're just looking for attention and validation at that point, nothing else.
waiting on Nice Family’s highly anticipated “Dinner Table”
Niiice Family*
Album gonna be 🔥🔥🔥 bruh!
same!
That's it. I'm starting a skramz band called Nice Family, first EP will be Dinner table, track list will be "Pass the Salt", "Ride the gravey train", "Corny like my cob," and the big 8 minute post rock inspired epic closer "Cold Turkey"
Edit: I forgot the spoke word interlude between tracks 3 and 4. That'll be a spoken word retrospective on my first stay in the mental ward called "we should've just ordered pizza"
I would totally listen to that.
100% would listen
@ me before that pops off
They're all so good please make this someone lmao
cold turkey sounds like its gonna be a rip-off of cold raviolis
I love how you start every video with fantano
Thank you ahahaah
What's the original clip of?
@@Nauseousrap Fantano‘s first impression of Good News by Mac Miller I’m pretty sure
So he left the band because he "bullied" someone in highschool. People are too sensitive especially in the emo scene, but I guess that's kind of fitting.
yeah, it is emo after all lol
"Too sensitive", you mean too empathetic? I have no empathy for people that have no empathy.
@@jacobwojtowicz9638 You are such a patron saint of altruism and respect towards others, wish we could all be like you. Wowie.
tbfh, what bart was accused of isn't even that bad...y'all act like most teenagers aren't mean...well they are. Teenagers are drama oriented and we all grow out of it and realize how stupid it is and I am fairly certain the people that are super angry at Bart are young adults/teenagers. just my opinion tho
Yeah seriously we’ve all made mistakes, crucifying Bart for being what any teenager would’ve been in their teenage years is a bit overkill. Not justifying his actions, but honestly mom jeans has brought so much life to me in my early college years. Hope we can get through this. Much love - John L.
Happy someone else said it. Its not bad at all. People need to grow the fuck up
Stone Cutter agreed. Shit happens man. Words are just words.
agreed. I’m not for supporting abusers but I don’t think the stuff Bart is accused of doing when he was 15 is worthy of that title
@@rileytanner4476 im not proud of it but i was kind of a little shit when i was younger. born 1995, grew up with Jackass and stupid shit like that. makes me feel old but we just weren't as sensitive back then, but we were also a lot more ignorant. i cringe at some things i did/said as a kid, like everubody else. As long as you want to change with the times i think youre respectable.
Mom jeans helped me through a lot of stuff, and were pretty much the only band I was able to listen to while I was in rehab recovering from addiction, so they'll always have a special place in my heart. And personally I really dig their corny lyrics, like you said it makes them so much more genuine and real. It really bothers me that Bart was kicked out for something he did when he was 15, like c'mon dude we all did crappy stuff when we were young, but nobody deserves to suffer for their whole lives because of it. Sad to see so many people that enjoy watching others suffer, instead of prosper.
Also, such a great video dude. I really enjoy your positive vibes! I still really wish I could sit down with you and just talk about music. No one i know has the same passion for emo music as i do, and its such a bummer.
ngl that first mom jeans album is one of the best and strongest examples of hooky emo music. every song is memorable and catchy like the level of songwriting is beyond most bands from the third wave and is way better than it deserves to be.
This is correct
I'm part of a few emo groups on facebook and they all seem to hate on Mom Jeans cause it's cool or cause they're "problematic". Personally i just don't like the vocals but as for the accusation stuff. He was 14/15 i'm sure he's a completely different person now. Everyone does something shitty at the age. The problem with cancel culture is people instantly believe whatever twitter post with 0 evidance. Then they ruin someone career based on something that might not even be true. Look at Sorority Noise. There was an update on Camerons situations saying the girl who made acusations was pressured into liying to kill his career.
Wait where did you hear the update about the Sorority Noise situation if you remember?
@@eris.mp4 uproxx.com/music/sorority-noise-sexual-assault-allegations/ was also updated on Old Grey's wiki not too long ago but no one reported this. Similar thing happened to Hobo Johnson.
ThatBlindGuy247 ah I see, thank you!
@@eris.mp4 i only heard of them this year and got really into them so i had to look it up and found that. I hope they come back but it doesn't look like it'll be anytime soon
I dont think they'll be coming back anytime soon, but I think Cameron took it maturely. It's not a bad thing If he realized some personal stuff though. Its good to give himself some room for growth & take care of himself. Maybe he realized he should change some things for the betterment of himself and others? Maybe one day he'll be ready to come back.
I saw Mom Jeans last year in April, and Bart looked broken during the show. I know he really struggles a lot with mental health issues, and it's pretty apparent he uses music to cope. When he was accused of some shitty things he said over a decade ago and he took a step away from Mom Jeans, just after Covid cancelled the Grad Life tour, I really have to feel sorry for him. It seems like he lost so much that meant so much to him at a really bad time. I hope he's doing well.
The biggest problem with them is the guitarist wearing a nickelback shirt.
Ironical
Yo what are your thoughts on Prince Daddy?? I got into them around the same time as mom jeans from their split album and now they’re my favorite band next to mobo
Cosmic Thrill Seekers is one of the best albums ever imo
@@blameitonyaboi facts
Pdaddy smacks
I was the BIGGEST Mom Jeans fan for so long (I still love them) but I definitely grew to love Prince Daddy even more. PD is amazing.
haha that's my reddit thread at 6:40, I feel famous
Tbh Mom Jeans is one of my favorite bands, and I’m actually pretty happy that I found out about them lol. That’s just me though, people are allowed to have their own opinions. Anyways, keep up the good content Nate!
The first time I came across Mom Jeans on there live Audiotree sessions. Loved the band ever since.
That first time hearing Poor Boxer Shorts was so damn good qnd the lyrics so damn accurate.
Make a video about snowing!!
Should I do it in the winter? Just for the meme. Bc you know how it snows in the winter? Haha
Nate The Mate NO! We can’t wait that long without you talking about snowing lol
shoot haha okay I gotchu mates then. I’m for the people. And the mates
Snowing would be a good one. There should be a mention of Street Smart Cyclist in there too if he does make the video.
John Galm did a long interview with a lot of info about the band here th-cam.com/video/WEtByPRGno4/w-d-xo.html
@@NateTheMateForever WHAT ABT SURF CURSE AND TEEN SUICIDE I BEG U
i'm glad u somewhat stopped walking on egg shells at least a little bit at the end of the video when talking about people's reaction to the bart allegations
Hey Nate, any chance you’d do a video on Seahaven? Would love hearing your thoughts on them, one of my favorite ever bands
👍🏻👍🏻yessss
👍👍
pls!
YES
That would be baller
Mom jeans came to my state during the hobo Johnson tour, I met them and they were amazing people, really stupid how cancel culture has gotten to mom jeans,
I came to hobo’s concert in ATL to see them. It was an absolute blast
The “Bart stuff” is a non-issue. You’re acting like there is controversy where when frankly it’s teenage level drama.
As a musician, I’ve always loved their work. They have great instrumentation and I love the energy. The drums are sick as hell, and I agree that they are really ultimately a super fun band. And the twinkly riffs are really cool too.
I hope Bart comes back. Seems like they were two people who didn't like eachother when they were in High School. I'm with Bart. We've all made mistakes

could you make a vid on midwest pen pals or merchant ships much love man
Mom Jeans is like comfort food for me.
I know it's not the most complicated music, I know it is simple in several ways, but it came to me in a very uncomfortable time in my life. I remember first hearing them during a cold winter night in my old Focus and just gelling with them like I did when I was a teen in 2006-2009.
Facts
Never even thought anyone hated them i don’t understand this video.
Click bait. He used the name 'mom jeans' to get views
I don’t even think the lyrics are corny. idk wtf this dude is talking about. mom jeans is the shit. everyone I know loves mom jeans. they don’t love/hate them they simply love them as the good band they are.
True that. I've never heard of anyone disliking the band. They either haven't heard, or think they're good
Lmfao idk wtf you guys are talking about, ive met SOOOO many people hate Mom Jeans.
sand 4 brainz lmfao good for you dawg. i was simply just expressing my own subjective personal opinion in the TH-cam comments like everyone else and conversing with another person online who shares the same subjective opinion. Thanks for sharing your experience too though. Although i don’t really care for it.
People religiously hated Mom Jeans before the stuff with Bart, they were just looking for an opportunity to drag them down. What I think happened is that Mom Jeans got big right around the same time that other big Emo bands were dying off. Modern Baseball, Jank, Sorority noise, etc. People wrapped their heads around Mom Jeans being the next big thing and when they didn't live up to that ridiculously high expectation their feelings towards them turned to hate.
lmaoo freddy pee pee sighting at 0:28
lol
Band rules, the dudes seem to rule, every band they're attached to is pretty fun as well.
What other bands are they attached to?
jeffrey Garus just friends, graduating life and just about every band that tours with those bands.
And Prince Daddy and the Heyna, Erik Butler (mom jeans singer) plays trombone for them
Addison Sharp I just left it at the bands they tour with, because if you see them it’s like musical chairs haha. They all pop up in all of the “friend” bands.
You guys hating on Bart are a bunch of nerds, that dudes stage presence was so fun and unreal. Ruined a band man good job fellas
Damn I’m real out of emo band culture. Are they not making music anymore?
Megan Bournes they are . they’re just taking their time on the new album and i think Eric realeased a new solo song a couple days ago.
I dont care for Mom Jeans in the slightest but trying to cancel someone for something minor they did at age 15 is just mega cringe. Cancel culture is just all about attention at this point and just making shit worse
chads love to hate on mom jeans bc they've never felt any of things they are singing about
@Nate The Mate please make vids about prince daddy and the hyena
I’ve seen them live in a concert about a year ago and they were super nice, talked to them after the show and they were really nice and cool. My friend brought his kapo and asked Bart to play with it and he actually did. We saw Eric after the show and he gave us some guitar picks that he uses, he even signed some stuff. I know it doesn’t seem extraordinarily nice, but since they’re as big as they are and probably deal with people all the time, it was every cool that they acted like that to random people. Nothing but love coming from me :)
say what you want about puppy love, but now this is podracing is one of their best songs
I don't get the issue with the song sounding similar. Musicians inspire each other, sometimes you take inspiration consciously, sometimes unconsciously. Also the stuff, with Mom Jeans sounding generic. If you wouldn't want to listen to music, that sounds like it's part of this genre, you wouldn't listen to this genre. Of course, something can sound uninspired or boring, but for me their music doesn't evoke those emotions at all.
The drama stuff is silly imo and I really don't care.
I think, they're a really cool band and I enjoy listening to them.
Mom jeans is my favorite Midwest emo band ever, sweet tooth is album of the year so far
I found mom jeans maybe three or four years. All this time ive been enjoying them, i never knew anyone hated them. Oh well, back to listening to edward 40hands for the 10,000th time.
I've never gone on Twitter to ruin someone but i will say this: i don't care that it was 10+ years ago, i still don't forgive and forget the people that bullied me. Mom Jeans slaps tho
it "doesn't count" cause hes a boy, and she's a girl. could it be any more obvious?
He was a sk8rboi
@@NateTheMateForever She said see you later boy
So uh, you want to do a Tigers Jaw video for me? 🙄
as someone from the bay, and has been to one of their shows in recent years i love their older music, and they still make some bangers but their newer albums arent my favorite. i agree with them being a little overhyped, but i think another reason they got that hype is because theyre a "midwest" emo band from califonia. that sparked lots of talk about if its technically midwest emo if not from the midwest. im like in the middle of this video so idk if this point was already made lol. but that being said the energy at their show in their home town Berkley was amazing and one of my favorite concerts ive been to. the band that sam kless has, just friends, often opens for them or other midwest emo shows when they tour in the area and i will say at first i wasnt fond of just friends music but man do they know how to entertain a crowd! ive now seen just friends open 3-4 times and its always such a fun experience as a local
the drama discussed in this video is probably the dumbest drama i've ever seen
I really like Mom Jeans because they make being lame and cringey feel cool and fun. They arent doing anything particularly technical or groundbreaking, but if thats someone's only metric for measuring what makes a band good, then im probably gonna disagree with them on a lot more
So at the beginning of the video, you were paraphrasing someone about how they dislike Mom Jeans because they are a musician and they claim they use the same chord progression in every song.
So I went and listened to their top 10 songs on Spotify and as some who has been playing guitar for 17 years I can confidently say that who ever said that is just an idiot and trying to seem like they know more than they do about songwriting and music in general.
I really dig this band and I don't understand the hate, it's totally fine for something to not be your jam, just don't make up bogus statements to sound smarter than you are. :D
sometimes when listening to a song you just wish you wrote it
so you write the version you would of done if you came up with it first.
Nothing really matters in the end if you like it you can or should just release it because why not xDD
i think its the emo community that are sensitive and easily butthurt arnt they punk which as a genre is huge in the arienbrotherhood (spelt wrong) has had alot of far rightwing influences cancel culture is the true problem whoever cares so deeply about the accusations are even worse for trying to destroy something beautiful and creative (evenjorts) which i imagine is there lifes
Personally, I don’t like Best Buds because the Instrumentals don’t go with the vocalist voice. BUT I don’t think I like his voice to begin with. I enjoyed Sweet Tooth much more though.
It makes me sick to my stomach that a band I've been trying to find since 2019 ever since HUNNY's album that year, has suffered from narcissistic women following the trend of trying to cancel men for things they didn't do. It makes me sick to think a gender can't be fought against or disagree with, otherwise they'll come back to ruin your entire life. It makes me sick to think even the US court system is geared to always believe women no matter what they say. This is systemic sexism far worse than any systemic racism right now, it's a ticket for a gender to get all the attention they want and have any lie they make up be believed all so they can ruin some male celebrity's life.
I’m not a big emo fan, but when I first heard this band I immediately liked them. Eric’s vocals, melodies, and guitar licks come together to make unforgettably catchy songs. The drums are always solid. Keeping it simple works for them, and I agree that the lyrics and performances are always genuine.

Emo kids winge and complain that the genre is feeling stagnant and then proceed to cancel anyone that wasn’t politically correct since birth and give infinite praise to the same old bands that don’t really bring anything new to the table or haven’t been around in years
I honestly don’t HATE Mom Jeans but I don’t like it either, it’s too corny for me, but at the same time I LOVE Grad Life
But I do feel bad that a bunch of kids who grew up on cancel culture that are seeping in through TikToks are in arms canceling Bart for doing stupid shit in high school.
Emo kids are honestly why I don’t identify with the genre, I still listen to it and care about the culture a lot, seeing how I grew up with it, but cancel culture and the R/Emo mentality is killing it slowly I feel like
I've never listened to Mom Jeans, but I'm absolutely astonished you had to spend 6 mins talking about those accusations. It sounded like made up bullshit. If you actually want to talk about problematic shit go look up Matt from Real Estate or listen to Morrissey talk for like 5 mins.
I used to hate them. Then I liked them ironically. Now, after going through a divorce at 23, I love them.
divorced at 25, best thing ive done for me. hope you get your life straight and come out of this better than you were before. cheers. =)
Pedro Lenhagui Bergamaschi I’m going through a self-destructive/hedonist phase. Pretty epic shit bro 😜 thank you man
Keep good man. It must be tough to have to break from someone you expected to spend the rest of your life with especially at such a young age regardless of what caused the break.
You guys got married before your late 20's?
mom jeans is more authentic then current fall out boy is,
that being said - 'sweet tooth' is the shit.
as many people have partied with eric and bart,
it's funny that people are talking about when they were teens and not anything more recent.
I didn't even know there was hate surrounding mom jeans until now.
Edit: Okay after watching the video, it's kind of sad that Nate has to do a 13 minute video talking about the hate and controversy surrounding a band when in reality there's nothing wrong with them, people just love to hate, and there's so much to their music that i wish got more commentary in this video. I love mom jeans from the music and performances alone; it's simply beautiful, catchy, the lyrics are out there as much as other emo bands, and their basement shows look like a lot of fun.
I think you should make a spotify playlist with your favorite songs!
As much as i love your channel, you should just delete this video for now and their big future
I love/hate the emo community. They have the balls to gate guard the emo community. We're all broken in some ways and Moms Jean's helped me realize that
That first EP will haunt this band forever.
The opening track is a complete re-do of....re-do..
Can anyone suggest similar songs to ones like "Jorts" and other old mom jeans songs pls :)
Just found out about mccafferty and i was like "oh shit, not mom jeans too"
12:32 - 12:36 luckily this isn’t the case and he’s back with the band (this isn’t new news but I don’t know if you know or not)
People hate them? Damn L them they’re one of my favorite bands
Somebody name your band Nice Family and make an album called Dinner Table right now, I will be your biggest fan.
FREE BART
if you aren't involved and don't know the full story, don't pick a side?
Mom Jeans has great riffs, catchy melodies and lyrics, and some stellar drumming and synchronization. I can't help but relate this to Fail Better, Heal Faster, as the same sort of concepts of growth and reinvention are present there. These people may or may not have done deplorable things but it's important to understand why we give these people the power. I feel like all of the music is being drowned out.
wait am I hearing Lord of the Rings chords at 0:58 ??
"all their songs use the same chord progression" that criticism doesn't make any sense if it's coming from a midwest emo fan, because so does almost every song in the genre.
the I-IVmaj9th is like 75% of what distinguishes midwest emo
I just got into this genre of music a few months ago. I like this band!
I was late on this music too! It’s all new if you’ve never heard it!
I honestly like bart’s band “graduating life” more than mom jeans. It makes me so genuinely sad that he might not come back to music because the previews for their new album that was supposed drop this year were really good.
I agree with that. I like the album grad life so much.
Watching there live shows made me like them, they kill live
Hot take here: idgaf about musicians personalities or opinions. If I enjoy their music that's all that matters to me. Im honestly sick of politics and Twitter mobs seeping in to entertainment, especially music. I refuse to join social media because of the amount of zealots that use it.
Felt the same way when I heard death cup that shit could’nt have hit at a more perfect time
Nah bart won't be believed cuz he is a male/popular
Oh boy can't wait to hate my favorite band! JK love the content Nate!
Love you matey hahaha

Dang u beat me to this vid bro...good job

Bart sat at the same table as me at prom in my senior year at highschool, before he was in Mom Jeans. I didn't know him that well on a personal level. He was my girlfriend's friend's boyfriend and they all went to highschool together. I went to a different highschool, but honestly, the few times I met Bart, he was nothing but nice to me. Fuck the haters 👌
I remember distinctly because at the time he was in a local band called Meet Me In Montauk (which I fan girl'd over) and I saw them several times live, before they disbanded and Bart moved on to Mom Jeans
I really enjoyed this week's video, hope you're doing good man
The fact that they’re based af makes me like them more. Punks bands should be “problematic”
Right on.

Tbh if i wanted to listen to something musically technical i would rather listen to dream theater or other prog band lol
Bruh there music is sad and that's beautiful
Just appreciate
Man I keep wanting to get big in the scene but I look back to freshmen me and think “if someone finds out what I did as a freshmen I’m screwed”
I feel man just take a page out of mel gibson's book and never apologize say fuck da critics literally everyone has done something "worth cancelation" in their lives
Cosmic Thrill Seekers is the only good thing to come out of this sparklepunk bullshit!!!
i’m only 19 and believe me i did a lot of stupid, ignorant, and regrettable things when i was 14 and i’ve changed a ton since then. it’s completely unfair to judge someone’s character based on mistakes they made in the distant past
Love them. Was at their first show in Europe, in some middle of nowhere small village in Belgium. All the guys were chill and hung out with the crowd after the show. Had a chance to talk with Eric and was surprised when they showed genuine interest in what we were talking about, seeing they just finished playing a show 5 minutes before. Can't wait until they come back to Europe and hope they come to the Netherlands, which they skipped out on first time around! >:(
So I have to hate another artist I love the music from? Getting real used to separating artist from art
Same 😭
You should make a video about Worst Party Ever, I love that band
So down
YES
I love them so much !!! They got me through the first month or so of quarantine
