Y'all made one of the best albums to ever come out of Alabama, probably one of the preeminent punk/emo albums of the period, and an album that is popular years after it was released. We're still listening to this in 2020. This is a classic. I'd embrace it instead of treating it as some ironic teenage heartbreak project. Please Be Nice is genius. Keep making music but don't be ashamed of this.
I know right, i dont usually seek out emo music, mostly into old school hardcore and punk. My buddies played this album at a kick back about a year ago. Hooked ever since.
I say this on so much music. Mostly because most bands I like are older and have broke since I’m kinda young. As I’m only 13 some bands I find started when I was like 5 or younger and a lot of broken up not long later.
Nothing beats Summer Death for me. I was part of one of the many places they recorded the album. The lengths those guys went through to put the album out was something else. There was a lot of work to be done and places to be for them but everything just kind of fell into place and the album came out without many roadblocks, just a lot of focus and commitment.
@@joshuaflodter9146 they are sure, but come from that point where it became mainstream and albums had bigger budgets and production. They have scene cred though because they were in the trenches in those early days like a lot of the rest. Jimmy Eat World kinda busted the door down for complete mainstream acceptance and the rest followed suit.
I know the band hates this record, but this is genuinely one of the greatest emo albums I’ve ever heard. Every track is perfect and the raw emotion of the vocalist combined with the cool ass guitar playing and powerful drumming makes this record a masterpiece. I am so glad this exists.
I abosultey love this album. It's actually one of my favorite albums, probably in the top seven. It's raw and very emotional. Love everything about it.
Yes and this is just the people talking about it ...this album has jamed so much uve been thru addiction and recovery and hearing this album sober and it slaps just as hard ^_^
@@ChaosForevah But that's the whole point and why I fuckin love the genre. Wish I could go back to the times where small things meant the whole world and writing screamy songs about it.
I never felt this way, in all honesty. Even when I was skating alone, I never truly felt alone, to me the board carried all the good times and all the bad times with it. Sometimes its best to stick on a good album and just chill with the memories and the sound of the wheels rolling over the ground.
My job often sends me out on 2.5 hour drives to work remotely for an entire day. I remember one winter's day going out at 5 am and driving back home in the dark at 7 pm and being so exhausted I let youtube autoplay decide what I listened to...eventually this album started and I listened to the whole thing, rocking out, wondering why I never heard of this band before. One of the best nights of my life.
my boyfriend of five years admitted to cheating on me yesterday, which just so happened to be my 22nd birthday. This album has been the only thing that's brought me peace, as cringey as that sounds. Im not even looking for attention or sympathy, but I just want to get everything off my chest because I have literally no one to talk to. He was never an asshole to me, always respectful, never raised his voice or insulted me in any way that wasn't very obviously a joke, recognized my boundaries and helped me come out of my shell when my social anxiety would skyrocket. He didn't isolate me, and he genuinely was my best friend on top of being my boyfriend. I wanted to marry him someday. But he had major issues with self worth, which led him to breaking my trust. He cheated on me when we were in college back in 2017, but I forgave him because I wanted to believe he'd change. I guess I was an idiot for trusting him, but I really thought things would be different. He was my everything, and now I'm completely alone with no job, no car because a fucking squirrel chewed over a hundred different wires in the engine and no one can fix it, no friends cause I stopped talking to everyone I knew from high school, and a college degree in animation that I completely regret getting with over $20,000 in student debt. I know I'm pretty young and I have my whole life ahead of me, it's dumb to plan your whole life around someone, but he was my prince charming and he made me feel happy just being in the same room with him, even if we weren't talking and just doing our own stuff. Listening to this album on repeat has been the only thing that makes me feel like someone out in this vast, scary world gets me, even if the songs are more about unrequited love as opposed to a broken relationship. I just don't feel like a human being anymore, but this music makes me feel not so alone in that sentiment.
that sucks. this is my comfort album too. its got me through some nasty stuff as well, but no singular event as traumatic. stay positive and drink plenty of milk (its good for bones).
music comforts me a lot. i don't talk to most of my friends anymore either, i think i only talk to 2 of them and that's it. in my free time, i spend it all listening to music. it's much better than thinking about all the problems and insecurities i have
I just met a friend who moved across country a few years ago. Felt great catching up with him, had a few beers and just enjoyed the evening. It's almost fightening to see how everyone around you grows up, everyone making their way through life, people moving and starting their families. I kinda wish i'd still be hanging around with these people like back in the days, when life was just a big playground. Stay safe people and always cherish your memories.
I often think that emo/punk music is about the struggles of growing up. Not a perfect thought, but from my personal experience, i think its at least relatively true. That being said, the fact that the band who wrote this (frankly fantastic) record now hates it, viewing it as immature, really speaks to me. To grow is to view your past actions and words as cringe or immature. We look back at these moments and despise them. This song is a product of our younger more immature selves. That is why we come back to listen to it with joy as it speaks to us and reminds us of simpler times when we were immature and carefree. This is my favorite album of all time. This album makes me cry, something i didnt even do when my father died. im 25 now, and those times growing up are now behind me, but music like this lets me peer through the window again and ultimately propels me forward with a smile.
prime example of how you dont have to be popular or get super big to be one of the greatest band ever I bet the 11k people that liked this video will remember this album for all their lives and beyond, even if you were never on billboard. You guys made those 11k people's day, maybe even life, and I was fuckin one of them. Thank you wholeheartedly for the absolute goddamn masterpiece that is please be nice.
This is one of the defining albums of the Midwest emo genre. It's so good. The guitar and bass tones are so good and the production value is insanely high for a group of high schoolers. One of my favorite albums of all time.
The first song (Insight) is heavy in double base. Those triplet snaps into the anchor of the snare is fucking tasty. It sounds like the drummer had his heart set in metalcore as he learned drums, but ended up seamlessly tethering the style into a melodic emopunk thrasher tune, like this. It's one of the most peculiar flavors my ears have tasted.
That's an incredible catch, I chatted with Steven Whaley who was bassist/guitarist/not sure from Flora and he apparently is/was also on this band, he told me that Jacob Stewart, the drummer from Camping, is also in Flora, Silver Fern, Obed Edom, Glimpse (Steve's band) AND that Jacob also has a black metal band called Evelyna, which is probably why you sensed that heavier style in his drummer.
Please Be Nice is an emotional rollercoaster. It drags you down with lyrics like "I want to die!" and then brings you back up with "I'm going to work hard and do my best!" I listen to this album on repeat. I love the instrumentation. Each song is unique. The artist show who they are through their music. Each song displays their technical abilities and understanding of their instruments. It is all around solid.
This is one of those records that represents a part of my life that’s long gone, but such a building block for what I am today. Such a crazy nostalgia trip.

Oh my god. The allmighty UA-cam alogrithm recommended me these mid-western emo mixtapes and one of their songs was on them. And here I am, it's 2020 and I am binge-listening to this album for several days now. The music somehow makes me reminiscent of easier times. I hope the band still enjoys making music together.

I remember dragon ball z budokai tenkaichi 4 coming up in my recommendations and i listened to it, didn't like it and moved on. Now here i am, listening to this whole album and its beautiful. Long live Please Be Nice, great fucking album.
Might be late to the party but this showed up on my recommended a few months ago and I haven’t been able to go a week without listening to it since, great album!
Man this is growing on me. I went through a time where music wasn't important to me anymore, and I'm not saying this fixed me or anything close but man it's really good, and c u in the ballpit really tapped into something to me.
Jammed this during teenage heartache years... went to college, got a job, fell in love, fell out of love, fell in love again. And still I'm here. This album's done a lot for my life and I can't help but tear up every time I'm here again. Thank you guys.
if anyone's confused as to why "there's no "brain" in team" doesn't exist, it's because it doesn't. it's suppose to be "there's no "brian" in team", it's typed incorrectly in the description. i suppose it's probably worth fixing the typo in the description to "brian" to avoid future confusion. took a while for me to figure out why this song apparently doesn't exist. lol.
I've listen to this album so many times it's hard to count, it's truly stop my depression and I thank you for making this cia you are awesome and perform soon
This is by far my most played album. It's so good. I always crawl back to it periodically each and every year. And it never grows old. It grows more with you.
Wtf, this just got recommended to me on UA-cam. I’ve never heard of this band but goddamn this album is rad. I don’t know why I even clicked on it but I’m so glad I did!!!
Dude, front to back bangers, right! I found them like that almost a year ago and kept putting it off and randomly decided to check it out. Been on atleast semi regular rotation since
Здесь есть и украинцы. Я считаю это лучший эмо-альбом периода 2010-2019. Песни перетекают одна в одну и всё звучит отлизано. Но из-за умелых рук композитора, звучание имеет примесь трушной панкухи. Мне понравилось окончание альбома и его начало. В начале коротенькая песня, которая даёт понимание о том, что будет дальше. А конец, это приятная на слух акустическая песенка. Она спокойная, но передаёт те эмоции, что нужны. Для США этот альбом должен стать классикой, ибо тут передаются эмоции и переживания именно этой страны. Я их понять не смог. Но мне кажется, музыка-это именно совокупность эмоций, идеологии и звучания. Если все эти пункты сделаны хорошо, получится альбом Please be nice.
i'm really glad to have found this, but i understand the artist not liking it. When i look at things i drew a long time ago I feel the same kind of "ugh". But if it means anything, this is still loved by many, even if it doesn't represent the present.
Saw on Bandcamp that these dudes are from Huntsville, AL. There's a state park out there with a humongous cave called Cathedral Caverns, about 30 miles east of Huntsville, pretty much in the middle of nowhere. Cool to know there's some good music coming out of rural America :) Keep it up fellas
Best find of the 21st century, im so glad i discovered them, i would've loved this even more if i found it in my teenage years. This album was the soundtrack of 2020 for me, i discovered so much of myself and about growing up. For a happy new year, and more teen angst in young adulthood!
Found out about this album during the very beginning of covid lockdown. Helped me a great deal. Algorithm obviously knew I had enough midwest emo in my mixes to suggest it. Listen to it at least a few times a week. Anyway, moral of the story, if UA-cam thinks you'd like something based on how many different never meant covers you listen to, give the suggestions a chance
This is one of those albums I found and just had on my phone for like 2 years but never listened too except for like 1 song. Then all of a sudden at work I was bored and just threw the album on to see what everything else was like, And god damn, Not just being hyperbolic, This was one of my favorite emo albums of all time, Seriously hit home and brought up some emotions I didn't expect.
Going through a breakup after a five-year relationship and this has been the album I’ve leaned on the most. Every song strikes a chord in me. Thank you for this music, CIA, it really helps.
I can't stop listening to this album this past week. More people need to hear this. I don't know what more to say, but Please share with friends, because this Emo album is one of the best I have heard in a long time.
i listen to this band since 2013 austin answered me once on facebook and gave me the lyrics of a song that I didn't understand because I'm brazilian strange to say but this band is part of my life and I think it helped me not to kill myself
@@saassas5879 i always try to!!! Seeing yalls support gives me the will to keep writing and playing, and recording this new 13 song full length we're almost done with!
@@campinginalaska Don't lose the inspiration. i can only imagine how hard it is to work a normal job then get home and put work into your passion and then find space to live inbetween. And its so easy to feel like your music isn't being heard or why people won't shell out the money so you all can have more time to focus on just the music. But its like the orginal comment "it helped me to not kill myself" your music effects people on a emotional level, something money and normal jobs often fail to do. I can't even put into words how amazing listen to this album makes me feel. It's memories, it is hope, it is feeling like you aren't the only one who feels that way. It makes me feel alive in a world that often feels lifeless. Don't lose the faith guys, the striking it rich as a band thing maybe a thing of the past but there is no doubt that your music has made, and will continue to make a positive impact on peoples lives cherish That shit, clearly you do responding to the comments but i justed wanted to say that.
Yesterday was one the most awful days I ever had, I did something wrong and now I have to go to the psychologist, I'm scared but it's been almost half month of hearing this album and for some reason it makes feel like everything is gonna be fine. Thanks for everything. (Sorry for the bad English)
@@nipsmcgee2996 some stuff regarding my depression and panic attacks, let just say i endend hitting my sister... but i been wornking on it. I mean i can now talk to my family and even hug my mother without feeling like is something artificial.
man this band has had an impact on me that i cant express enough. i cant say thank you for enough for all they've done as a band. everytime i revisit this band it still hits me as hard as the first time i listened to it, still makes me smile from ear to fucking EAR . even though i dont relate to emo music anymore i still fucking adore this album even years later. to add onto it, it was introduced to me years ago by my now boyfriend of offically 2 years this week :3. he played such a massive roll in my life and i cant help but smile and think of him when i hear this bands name.

I really enjoyed that part from 00:00-28:07
Hands down one of the best alums, ever.
This is one of the defining albums of the Midwest emo genre. It's so good. The guitar and bass tones are so good and the production value is insanely high for a group of high schoolers. One of my favorite albums of all time.
The first song (Insight) is heavy in double base. Those triplet snaps into the anchor of the snare is fucking tasty. It sounds like the drummer had his heart set in metalcore as he learned drums, but ended up seamlessly tethering the style into a melodic emopunk thrasher tune, like this. It's one of the most peculiar flavors my ears have tasted.
And it somehow works. :] what a great album.
I heard that, it's an interesting combo and as the other guy says it works here
That's an incredible catch, I chatted with Steven Whaley who was bassist/guitarist/not sure from Flora and he apparently is/was also on this band, he told me that Jacob Stewart, the drummer from Camping, is also in Flora, Silver Fern, Obed Edom, Glimpse (Steve's band) AND that Jacob also has a black metal band called Evelyna, which is probably why you sensed that heavier style in his drummer.
@@mynamefrank6567 That's actually really awesome, I didn't know that. Thank you for that information! It makes a lot of sense now for sure.
@@mynamefrank6567 thats awesome. As a big fan of black metal but used to listen to this all the time 7 years ago im excited to check out Evelyna
Please Be Nice is an emotional rollercoaster. It drags you down with lyrics like "I want to die!" and then brings you back up with "I'm going to work hard and do my best!" I listen to this album on repeat. I love the instrumentation. Each song is unique. The artist show who they are through their music. Each song displays their technical abilities and understanding of their instruments. It is all around solid.
brooooooooooooooooooooo
This is one of those records that represents a part of my life that’s long gone, but such a building block for what I am today. Such a crazy nostalgia trip.
YES. YOU TOOK THE WORDS OUT OF MY MOUTH
it's not cozy. it hurts :( and I can't stop caus I wanna escape from now to this place... back in time... when everything was much simpler
@@siegpasta damn I feel you bro I know how you feel cuz I feel the same the memories the nostalgia how things were back then even i feel/remember the smell in the air back in the day we just have to hold on to it and never forget it...
This album is ten today :D
One of the tightest emo albums back to front I've ever heard. take that for what it's worth!
this album is so teenage and nostalgic to me. i don’t even remember how i came across it but god damn i still know every word
I come back to these songs like a lost friend
Literally can’t stay away

As an Alaskan I approve of this album.
Is this what Alaska is like?

Oh there are other Alaskans here
People live in Alaska?!?! 😉
@@coltonc8562 shoutouts from Kodiak
Oh my god. The allmighty UA-cam alogrithm recommended me these mid-western emo mixtapes and one of their songs was on them. And here I am, it's 2020 and I am binge-listening to this album for several days now. The music somehow makes me reminiscent of easier times. I hope the band still enjoys making music together.
SAME. NOW I CANT STOP LISTENING
I think the mixtape you mean is called "I'm tired of begging you to stay"...😉
@@J.U.N.K.official legendary mixtape xD it has almost a history of it's own :)
Why do I always run away
Why do I always take the easy way
I won't go and do that again
I'm gonna work hard and do my best
Ive got to tell you the truth
The time spent with you I
Is a waste of time
Ive had the biggest crush
On you
Ever since we first met
And if you think I'm a monster
Youre probably right
I'm just a monster
So run and hide
Cus I'm a disfunctional mess
And I cannot address the truth
Yeah I was weak when you needed strong
And I can't see where I belong
Were tryna make things better
I'm tryna make things better for her
I was wrong about you
I was wrong all along
Yeah I was wrong about you
I was wrong all along
And I just want you to know I'm gonna fuck up
And I realize that
You already know that I'm a fuck up
And I realize that
But I can't change
I can't change
I can't change
I can't change
i LOVE THE CAP'N JAZZ REFERENCE IN "I WANT TO KICKFLIP" AND IT MAKES ME WANT THE SUNSET OF EMO TO LAST FOREVER.
Im glad you didnt think i was just blatantly plagiarizing
@@campinginalaska I mean I'd say you're well within fair-use haha
Heck yeah. My "senior quote" or something I stole for a school project anyways.
@@marth_6126 cool! I’m a few years away from choosing a senior quote but I know it’s either gonna be from these guys or The Front Bottoms prolly...I need to get more into these guys
When I'm depressed I listen to this. Turns out I'm never not depressed.

School was no fun
Satisfaction
Now I'm done
My songs go unsung
My lyrics ring out and heard by no one
And I
I'm tired
Of you

Of you

And I won't sleep tonight
Been itching for a fight

*why can't i be snowing*
I listened to Pump Fake 3000 times
And thought about my friends for generations
Sitting home alone
After a fucking shitty show
Where no one showed up like they said they would
And now we're grown ups
Fucking grown ups
Where the bummed out swan songs are wasted on closed ears
And now we're grown ups
Fucking grown ups
Where the bummed out swan songs are wasted on deaf ears
2 ,3, 4
Fuck this
Fuck everything
No one even cares
Oh how I wish that they would care
I hope that I die
So some people might
Listen to the songs I write or wrote
I hope that I die
I hope that I die
The best lines I ever wrote
I'm not worthy to
Pronounce your
Syllables

Now we're awake 'n' staring at the ceiling
I know it's hard
When you're young and feel as if the world is closing in around you
Now we're awake in different buildings
And on different sides of town
You know I think about you much more than you think about me
About me
About me
Why can't I be Snowing
Why can't you fucking love me
Why can't I be Snowing
Why won't you fucking love me
Cause I love you
But I guess I'm a shitty person
I love you, yes, I love you
But you don't wanna know
No, you don't wanna know

*there's no "brian" in team*
Why do I always run away?
Why do I always take the easy way?
I won't go and do that again
Gonna work hard, do my best

The time spent with you
Is a waste of life
Cause' I've had, the biggest crush
On you
Ever since we first met
If you think I'm a monster
You're probably right

[Intro]
We'll all be alright
(We'll all be alright!)
We'll all be alright
(We'll all be alright!)
[Verse 1]
Sometimes it's hard for me to see
What a shitty person I can be
It's unexplainable
I'm unforgivable and inexplicable
[Chorus]
And I want
What I want
I don't want you
And I don't want this
I'm so sick of all this
Fucking stressful shit
[Refrain]
And I want out
[Chorus]
And I want
What I want

[Intro: Dialogue from The Office (S03E19)]
Michael: Everything is wrong! The stress of my modern office has caused me to go into a depression
Dwight: Depression? Isn't that just a fancy word for feeling "bummed out"?
Michael: Dwight, you ignorant slut!
[Verse 1]
I've been rushing, running, talking
Fucking ticket for jaywalking
I've been haunting this hotel for too long
You've been crushing cigarettes
And fucking holding my sweaty hands
I don't know what to say but I'm happy
[Verse 2]
So hey, let's chill in the parking lot
And say "Puddle Splashers changed my life"
And if we stand still long enough
The sun will move around us
And if I feel like this again, I swear if I feel like this again
I'll fucking explode
[Outro]
And everyone in my town has found and used the easy way out
Not me
I'm not you
Not me
I'm not you
Not me
I'm not you
Not me
I'm not you
Not me
I'm not you

*c u in da ballpit*
[Verse 1]
Hey I've been starin' at you
And I thought you were starin' at me too
I thought I caught you
But I know it's too good to be true
But I been meaning to ask you
How's your life
What are you doing Friday night
'Cuz I'm off work
And I'm going crazy
'Cuz your face is burned in the back of my fucking eyelids
[Chorus]
And sometimes
When I can't sleep
I'll drive my car to the top of Monte Sano
And I'll watch the cars pass by (the pretty city lights)
And I'll feel alright
[Verse 2]
Hey I've been lookin' for you
Been searchin' high and low
Where did you go
'Cuz I'm alone
And this feeling's burning in the pit of my fucking stomach
And this fire is lit all up and down my spine
But you waver
And say
We all live so we all die
[Chorus]
And sometimes
When I can't sleep
I'll drive my car to the top of Monte Sano
And I'll watch the cars pass by (the pretty city lights)
And I'll feel alright

*dragon ball z budokai tenkaichi 4*
[Verse 1]
And I know things get the best of you sometimes
They do me too
And I know life's hard to figure out sometimes
But we'll make it through
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Please don't change
[Chorus]
I feel so guilty
And I feel so dumb
And I feel so stupid
But yet our hearts are young
[Verse 2]
Hey I know people are full of shit sometimes
But hey we are too
And I know it's hard to fucking deal sometimes
And I can't at all
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Too late to change
[Chorus 2]
Do you feel guilty
'Cause I sure feel dumb
And I know it's sort of stupid
But hey our hearts are young
[Outro]
And I don't wanna know
I don't wanna know
I don't wanna know
I don't wanna know
GUYS THEY'RE BACK ON SPOTIFY
FINALLY
LETS GOOOO
🎉
GUYS IT'S ON SPOTIFY
I haven't listened to this in forever, very stoked
I remember dragon ball z budokai tenkaichi 4 coming up in my recommendations and i listened to it, didn't like it and moved on. Now here i am, listening to this whole album and its beautiful. Long live Please Be Nice, great fucking album.
the same for me but c u in da ballpit
@@ranrancrabgrabber recommended songs have been nice to me for years
What? I liked dragon ball z. :( I honestly taught it was a nice song
@@TuhLok14oh No I came back to the album because I had a change of heart for the song! Sorry for the confusion
Probably listened to c u in da ball pit about 100 times in the last 2 days. Some damn good shit
3 years later, I’ve been nonstop listening to this for two weeks straight.
25 and this album still gets the best of me. Something special about this one
"I hope that I die
So some people might
Listen to the songs I write or wrote"
I felt that :/
Austin if you are here, we are interested in pressing this on vinyl. Let me know what you think.
Would killllll for this on vinyl
Considering Austin hates this record, I don’t think it’ll happen sadly
I had reached out on Bandcamp and Austin said he was taking preorders for vinyl for $35. I PayPal'd him $35 and he has ghosted me ever since. 😂
Ian Thomas good album and band but Austin is a serious fucking loser lmao
@@ianthomas2911 This is the funniest thing I've ever read in a youtube comments section rip
This shit leaves me speechless. It's 2021 and I'm still listening to this. God, It's so fucking good!
Might be late to the party but this showed up on my recommended a few months ago and I haven’t been able to go a week without listening to it since, great album!
Ill find myself humming the chorus to C u in da ballpit at work and its honestly the best thing ever
this album is our secret corner in youtube
Listen party April 1st 8pm EST. Come hangout and enjoy this gem
is anyone gonna talk about how good the drums are lmao?
I was JUST saying how crucial this drummer is.
the drums carry hard
Man this is growing on me. I went through a time where music wasn't important to me anymore, and I'm not saying this fixed me or anything close but man it's really good, and c u in the ballpit really tapped into something to me.
Jammed this during teenage heartache years... went to college, got a job, fell in love, fell out of love, fell in love again. And still I'm here. This album's done a lot for my life and I can't help but tear up every time I'm here again. Thank you guys.
all the dislikes are probably austin on his 31 accounts
You dont know how true this is
@@campinginalaska i know how much you totally adore this album(;
@@givingabutterflyaskeleton ive learned to appreciate the fact that it put us on the map cuz
campinginalaska completely unrelated, but do you have an @ on any social media like insta or whatever?
@@givingabutterflyaskeleton naw but you can add me on facebook, cruzdin dabol
Guys?!.. ITS ON SPOTIFY!?!? 🥳
the WOO after "I hope that I die" is so relatable for some reason
if anyone's confused as to why "there's no "brain" in team"
doesn't exist, it's because it doesn't. it's suppose to be "there's no "brian" in team", it's typed incorrectly in the description. i suppose it's probably worth fixing the typo in the description to "brian" to avoid future confusion. took a while for me to figure out why this song apparently doesn't exist. lol.
It’s crazy how I can sit back & enjoy this album from start to end , couple of beers & have the nostalgic feel of the good times
Marvelous album, the kind of midwest emo i like to listen during those sleepless nights
I've listen to this album so many times it's hard to count, it's truly stop my depression and I thank you for making this cia you are awesome and perform soon
oak 2k yay cod nerd btw they ended like four years ago :(((
mason lmao they just got back together actually
mason lmao yeah we still here bitch
campinginalaska answer my Facebook message you bitch
Saturn5ive oh shit
I just found this album, and I want to tell you the first listen was magical. Thanks for sharing this with me.
The first listen hits different on this album. I greatly thank the one who shared it with you, and with me.
GUYS THEY RELEASED ON SPOTIFY!!! Listening to it right now!
The best midwest Emo album
This is by far my most played album. It's so good. I always crawl back to it periodically each and every year. And it never grows old. It grows more with you.
I found this album 2/3 years ago and its easily the 2nd most played album ive ever listened to (front to back). Coheeds first record being #1
Wtf, this just got recommended to me on UA-cam. I’ve never heard of this band but goddamn this album is rad. I don’t know why I even clicked on it but I’m so glad I did!!!
Dude, front to back bangers, right!
I found them like that almost a year ago and kept putting it off and randomly decided to check it out. Been on atleast semi regular rotation since
Same, this is so good
Certified hood classic
Listen party April 1st 8pm EST. Come hangout and enjoy this gem
I know your not a thing anymore but know you have been alive in my life still. such beautiful music in such the worst way. I won't sleep tonight.
We still a thing new album next few months
band mati dah ini
campinginalaska bring it.
campinginalaska ❤️❤️
still one of the best albums. we love you here in tokyo
Здесь есть и украинцы. Я считаю это лучший эмо-альбом периода 2010-2019. Песни перетекают одна в одну и всё звучит отлизано. Но из-за умелых рук композитора, звучание имеет примесь трушной панкухи. Мне понравилось окончание альбома и его начало. В начале коротенькая песня, которая даёт понимание о том, что будет дальше. А конец, это приятная на слух акустическая песенка. Она спокойная, но передаёт те эмоции, что нужны.
Для США этот альбом должен стать классикой, ибо тут передаются эмоции и переживания именно этой страны. Я их понять не смог. Но мне кажется, музыка-это именно совокупность эмоций, идеологии и звучания. Если все эти пункты сделаны хорошо, получится альбом Please be nice.
cool comment
It makes me feel good and positive.
the lyrics are sad af tho
i'm really glad to have found this, but i understand the artist not liking it. When i look at things i drew a long time ago I feel the same kind of "ugh". But if it means anything, this is still loved by many, even if it doesn't represent the present.
I fucking love this album. Listened to it like 10 times in the past few days.
You need to go out more.
@@stephenroche5107 I refuse
Saw on Bandcamp that these dudes are from Huntsville, AL. There's a state park out there with a humongous cave called Cathedral Caverns, about 30 miles east of Huntsville, pretty much in the middle of nowhere. Cool to know there's some good music coming out of rural America :) Keep it up fellas
Paul Hawkins I love cathedral caverns!! it's so beautiful!
Triple dog dare you guys to do a concert in the cave. Cheers from FL!
Paul Hawkins hey I live in Huntsville
Different genre of music, but the band Northstar was from Huntsville too i believe

Midwest emo punk rock changed my life

Truth

Best find of the 21st century, im so glad i discovered them, i would've loved this even more if i found it in my teenage years. This album was the soundtrack of 2020 for me, i discovered so much of myself and about growing up.
For a happy new year, and more teen angst in young adulthood!
10 year anniversary of this classic. Can't wait to see them in September.
Oh shit we got a vinyl release of this now yeah buddy!
I always come back to this album. Everything about it just works.
This album goes so hard. Ive been listening to it all the time for the last 4 years.
I'm getting that cover tattooed. love you guys, thank you so much. release on spotify!
Found out about this album during the very beginning of covid lockdown. Helped me a great deal. Algorithm obviously knew I had enough midwest emo in my mixes to suggest it. Listen to it at least a few times a week. Anyway, moral of the story, if UA-cam thinks you'd like something based on how many different never meant covers you listen to, give the suggestions a chance
We'll all be alright
I sure hope so
Damn I remember when this had like 10k views. I'm glad they blew up.
This is one of those albums I found and just had on my phone for like 2 years but never listened too except for like 1 song.
Then all of a sudden at work I was bored and just threw the album on to see what everything else was like, And god damn, Not just being hyperbolic, This was one of my favorite emo albums of all time, Seriously hit home and brought up some emotions I didn't expect.
Emotions like disgust, cringe, and disappointment?
campinginalaska to name a few yeah
good use of hyperbolic
Going through a breakup after a five-year relationship and this has been the album I’ve leaned on the most. Every song strikes a chord in me. Thank you for this music, CIA, it really helps.
I can't stop listening to this album this past week. More people need to hear this. I don't know what more to say, but Please share with friends, because this Emo album is one of the best I have heard in a long time.
Truly one of my favorite albums across all genres. Absolute brilliance.
Finally on spotify!
I cant believe I've discovered this band today, this is great
came back to listen after a while. it had about 50k views back then but almost 500k now! im glad. i hope it gets millions.
I work in one of the biggest cannabis cultivation facilities here in Canada. We blast this album all the time ✌️✌️🍄
Austin if you ever see this, God bless you 🙏
I'm so late to this party but wooooow what have I been missing
it seems like a lot of people are late so maybe the others were just early
i listen to this band since 2013
austin
answered me once on facebook and gave me the lyrics of a song that I didn't understand because I'm brazilian
strange to say but this band is part of my life and I think it helped me not to kill myself
Love you buddy hope youre doing well!
@@campinginalaska it's pretty fucking cool that you're still responding to comments on here lol
@@saassas5879 i always try to!!! Seeing yalls support gives me the will to keep writing and playing, and recording this new 13 song full length we're almost done with!
@@campinginalaska bro plz upload this on spotify
@@campinginalaska Don't lose the inspiration. i can only imagine how hard it is to work a normal job then get home and put work into your passion and then find space to live inbetween. And its so easy to feel like your music isn't being heard or why people won't shell out the money so you all can have more time to focus on just the music. But its like the orginal comment "it helped me to not kill myself" your music effects people on a emotional level, something money and normal jobs often fail to do. I can't even put into words how amazing listen to this album makes me feel. It's memories, it is hope, it is feeling like you aren't the only one who feels that way. It makes me feel alive in a world that often feels lifeless. Don't lose the faith guys, the striking it rich as a band thing maybe a thing of the past but there is no doubt that your music has made, and will continue to make a positive impact on peoples lives cherish That shit, clearly you do responding to the comments but i justed wanted to say that.
Man when I heard this in 2018 it only had 100k views now almost a million what a great album love the first 2 songs
SO MUCH EMOTION IN THIS
this is slept on fr, but it kind og makes it our little secret.
PLEASE GO ON SPOTIFY OH MY GOD
Man this UA-cam algorithm really knows what I like sometimes. Copped this on Bandcamp and been having it on repeat ever since.
Yesterday was one the most awful days I ever had, I did something wrong and now I have to go to the psychologist, I'm scared but it's been almost half month of hearing this album and for some reason it makes feel like everything is gonna be fine.
Thanks for everything.
(Sorry for the bad English)
everything is going to be okay. things get better, thats the nature of things. just hang in there, im proud of u
hope youre hangin in there? what happened
@@nipsmcgee2996 some stuff regarding my depression and panic attacks, let just say i endend hitting my sister... but i been wornking on it. I mean i can now talk to my family and even hug my mother without feeling like is something artificial.
you’re loved man.
Go to sleep little babies.
Every thing will be allred.
This album helped me get through the last 2 summers. Thanks guys.
man this band has had an impact on me that i cant express enough. i cant say thank you for enough for all they've done as a band. everytime i revisit this band it still hits me as hard as the first time i listened to it, still makes me smile from ear to fucking EAR . even though i dont relate to emo music anymore i still fucking adore this album even years later. to add onto it, it was introduced to me years ago by my now boyfriend of offically 2 years this week :3. he played such a massive roll in my life and i cant help but smile and think of him when i hear this bands name.
❤
I was about to come here to comment that people liked this album just because of the last song. But then I realized this whole album is a gem
Listen party April 1st 8pm EST. Come hangout and enjoy this gem
Omg searching on Bandcamp and just discovered that they still playing, they have a new ep.. 😮
Ah man 15 or 16 year old me would have loved this album way too much haha. I was 27 when it came out.
This captures a certain feeling so well, I can't explain it. Everything down to the man with the long-hair in the background.
i would do unspeakable things to get this on vinyl
same
They did a cassette run a few months ago so there's a chance of a vinyl release
Not sure how I stumbled across Camping in Alaska but I'm glad I did. This album is a true gem, and should get so much more attention 😔
we'll all be alright
