    Holy shit man, listened to em all heavy in the early-mid 2000s. Atreyu, Hawthorne Heights, Funeral for a friend, Underoath, The Used, Brand New, Armor for sleep, Scary Kids Scaring Kids and so many others. But somehow I just found this band in 2020! Like a gem buried in the ground. They remind me of Alkaline Trio a lot.

    This is "True Emo". Not the emo ruined by greedy corporations trying to milk off every dollar from you by over saturating it with generic chord progressions and non original lyrical themes.
    Bayside knows how to play emo the right way. I feel that they play more of a tougher emo with more originality in their lyrics.

    @firstnamelastname5950 2 роки тому +6

    Trying to create something that's not there.
    A spark I saw as a bomb is just a means to an end.
    And I was just so happy to be out of my shell again,
    Don't think that I really cared for who or what.
    So for now I'll just have to keep it shut.
    If you're not ready, you're not ready.
    Please stop acting like you are.
    How could I know
    That everything you say are lies about devotion and desire?
    And I know the spark inside your eyes
    Was just the match I used to set myself on fire.
    My mouth's shooting blanks.
    Situation's unbearable,
    I've gotten vulnerable.
    Now anyone is free to waltz right in.
    My temple's been invaded
    And there's nobody guarding it.
    All over this lonely life,
    But what's so wrong with being all alone?
    Alone's the only way I've ever known.
    If you're not ready, you're not ready.
    Please stop acting like you are.
    How could I know
    That everything you say are lies about devotion and desire?
    And I know the spark inside your eyes
    Was just the match I used to set myself on fire.
    I'm pleading cause this kills and it's still bleeding.
    My darling I'm taking my life back to start healing.
    How could I know
    That everything you say are lies about devotion and desire?
    And I know the spark inside your eyes
    Was just the match I used to set myself on fire

    I feel the lyrics of the song so deeply after a heartbreak from a girl who used to tell me she loved me.

    This album came out the summer I graduated high school and I loved it to death. I'm pretty sure I burned a hole in that cd listening to this song and Montauk relentlessly day after day. The whole album made such an impression on me that I COULDN'T AVOID LISTENING TO IT CONSTANTLY. 2yrs later they put out Walking Wounded and forget it, I destroyed 3 of those cd's from over-listening. THen I grew up a bit and stopped listening to Bayside obsessively. But the other day, I threw this album and Walking Wounded on for old times-sake. I quickly realized how these songs hit me the same way as back then but they've taken on a whole new meaning because now I'm 28, not 18. Regardless, the songs are just as relevant. What makes this album so great (#1) is the honestly genuine lyrics. I think Anthony Raneri approaches his craft in a way that he will be deep inside my head whether I'm 18, 28, 38, 48 etc. What else makes this album great (#2) is the guitar freakouts that come at a relentless pace. This album and Walking Wounded have songs that have 2 or 3 guitar solos apiece. And mind you, those albums came out at a time when guitar solos weren't particularly cool. I'm pretty sure that their guitar styles were another reason I latched on to those albums so hard. If you were a scene kiddo circa 2005-2007, you know what I'm saying. Bayside was the coolest band of that time. They broke trends in a way that made them so much cooler than other bands of that time/genre.. If you weren't a scene kiddo in the golden age, you probably think my post sounds stupid and overly long and you are fully entitled to your opinion, so go enjoy yourself!!!!
