Oh, wow. I clicked SO fast. Edit: I remember back when this dropped & how blown away people were. I can recall sitting in a coffeeshop, having a smoke & reading a review of this album in the USA Today & thinking I needed to check the album out (I didn’t get a chance until a couple years later, when a girl I was dating played it for me. I was blown away too. His lyricism is so goddamned good!)
The release of this and Digital Ash on the same day was huge man. He mentioned BE possibly influencing BCNR and it’s possible…BE was a HUGE influence on the music scene back in the 2000s.

I'll never forget being 15 years old hearing this album for the first time and I was like "... what is this masterpiece". and it changed my entire concept of what music could be. 18 years later I still love this album so freaking much.
Yooooo love that you have reacted to a bunch of my favorite music! I was absolutely obsessed with Bright Eyes growing up. Gotta recommend their entire discography but if I had to chose a fav I'd say either "Lifted, or the Story is in the Soil, so Keep Your Ear to the Ground" or "The People's Key"
recs: Modest Mouse - This Is a Long Drive for Someone with Nothing to Think About (Amazing album, very nearly as good as The Lonesome Crowded West) Crystal Castles - Crystal Castles (Insanely badass aura filled production and vocals, extremely unique) Weezer - Pinkerton (Some of the nicest sounding guitar/drums/everything you'll hear in 90s alt rock, with crazy honest lyrics, ended up inspiring some emo bands) The Prodigy - The Fat Of The Land (badass big-beat dance music) Dinosaur Jr. - You're Living All Over Me (amazing ahead of its time 1987 alt/noise rock) Guided By Voices - Bee Thousand (lovely 90's lo-fi) Hella - Hold Your Horse Is (Math Rock with the drummer from Death Grips, before he was in Death Grips) Pavement - Crooked Rain, Crooked Rain (Absolutely perfect 90's indie rock album)
Great list. Crooked rain and slanted are the ones I usually put back on. I also love building nothing out of something and everywhere and his nasty parlor tricks from modest mouse, but never recommend them. I’ve had friends that hate it. Ugly Casanova is a good as well.
The lyrics are always central and important to any Conor Oberst/Bright Eyes song. The dude was recognized very early on as being a rare, special lyricist. Like a modern day Bob Dylan.
man, haven't heard this in so long man. takes me back to sophomore year, like twelve-thirteen years ago at this point, starting my morning to first day of my life, having nowhere near the same understanding of it that i do now, or of any of these songs really. man, sometimes it gets old having to learn and grow all the time. i know im not that old, but man im tired already. i miss when i didn't know as much as i do now and these songs felt like lessons from someone beyond my years
Bright Eyes! So good to see you listening to them! I totally recommend you LIFTED, their 2002 album. It has a similar vibe to this one but the main theme it's identity, with a lot of details spread all across the record. My personal favorite of them. And this one, what to say about I'm Wide Awake, it's Morning, it was my introduction to Bright Eyes when I was 15, and it became a very good friend of mine during those highschool years. It blew my mind how well written it is, like an intimate letter, destined to a close friend. I was lucky enough to see them play in Mexico in 2022, a rainy night and the production sucked, but the show was something I'll always remember. Cheers
Just finished watching the full video on Patreon, wanted to come drop a comment here. First off, Conor Oberst is one of, if not the best, songwriter of my generation. Personally, this is one of my least favorite albums of his so I’m really hoping you check out at least 1 or 2 more of his. Recommend Digital Ash in a Digital Urn and Cassadaga. Cassadaga, in my opinion, is peak Bright Eyes when it comes to musicianship and lyricism. He also did an album with Phoebe Bridgers under the moniker Better Oblivion Community Center that might be worthwhile. Glad you did this one man but really hoping you give some of his other works a shot….he’s in so many different projects and is an extremely versatile musician. Cheers bro (whispers in animal collective)
So interesting that it’s your least favorite while it’s pretty much their only album I like (it’s one of my favorite albums of all time though.) I will say the singles from the upcoming album are very promising
'The Texas-Jerusalem Crossroads - Lift to Experience' The album that quote "don't judge the book by its cover". Definitely feels blessed after hearing the whole album...
I remember me and my best friend and the rest of our friend group were so hyped up on Bright Eyes in 2003 and this album dropped and we went nuts for it and then we saw them headline live in 2006 in Philly in a beautiful venue and they were so uninspired, played for literally one hour with no encores and barely talked to the crowd. We basically never talked about them again. I was still a fan and still am but they had to have lost so many fans that show My Morning Jacket and Feist opened and we're cool
Love the vid as always some recs: Wilco - Summerteeth TV on the Radio - Desperate Youth Bloodthirsty Babes Belle and Sebastian - Tigermilk Bob Dylan - The Times They Are a Changin Wolf Parade - Apologies to Queen Mary Pulp - Different Class
This was dual release with "digital ash in a digital urn". Totally different style of music but it's really good. I think he's one of the best songwriters ever.
had to get the uncut version after recommending this for like 6+ months lmao I'd definitely recommend Conor's project with Phoebe Bridgers "Better Oblivion Community Center". And if you want to check out more of Bright Eyes my personal recommendations would be Digital Ashes (similar vibe but all electronic instrumentals), or Down in The Weeds (latest album, fuller more mature band sound). (alot of ppl probably recommend going backwards in their discog from here but i think it'll be another "id like this more if i was depressed" vibe for you lmao)
I can’t be the only person that thinks the female vocals on this album sound so much like Adrianne Lenker I know it’s not but it drives me crazy how much it sounds like her
I am one in a very small camp of people who think "Lifted, or The Story is in the Soil, Keep Your Ear to the Ground" is the better album. I think that if you liked IWAIM, this one should be your next stop.
You should check out the band Friko, their lead singer is literally your Doppelganger haha and their debut album released this year is kinda similar to this and is depressingly beautiful Other recs: PAINLESS - Nilufer Yanya Songs About Leaving - Carrissa's wierd Reading, writing and arithmetic - The Sundays Everybody else is doing it, so why can't we? - The Cranberries And then nothing turned itself inside out - Yo La Tengo STRUGGLER - Genesis Owusu Below The Heavens - Blu and Exile Fearless Movement - Kamasi Washington Modal Soul - Nujabes Plastic Death - Glass Beach You Forgot it in People - Broken Social Scene
Funny thing, Ive been owning this album for decades, and I only always constantly relistening to Road to Joy, because I love that song. Never listened to the other songs on that album. I think I got the abum when I heard Road to Joy somwhere. Please do Takk by Sigur Ros and/or Before The Dawn Heals Us by M83. ;*
LOVE YOUR VIDEOS MY GUY a few recommendations: Process - Sampha (experimental r&b, great production) Nurture - Porter Robinson (light summer electric with fun production) Koi No Yokan - Deftones (very heavy, sexier and heavier radiohead imo) Hypochondriac - Brakence (very experimental emo rap, glitch pop) Reading Writing And Arithmetic - The Sundays (the smiths ish, with beautiful female vocals)
Lifted is another great album of theirs, and i think you would enjoy the singer Conor Oberst's solo stuff too. I really love his self titled album and his album Ruminations
CO self-titled is so damn good many. Every time Cape Canaveral kicks in, I find myself back in the summer of 2008 and my God what a beautiful summer it was.
Fun fact: Bright Eyes released another album on the same day as this one, Digital Ash Digital Urn, and it's just as good but in a completely different style.
Kinda weird right? I’ve done some searching for Bright Eyes reactions and there just aren’t many. Conor has SO many different albums that are worth reacting to. Hoping Smags gets to a couple more…Cassadaga would be dope but so would something like BOCC or MoF.
hey you should totally do fiona apple’s ‘fetch the bolt cutters!’ imo it’s her best album. so emotional and sonically interesting. it’s a very rewarding listen.
I'm here to contribute to the LIFTED recs, one of the best albums ever imo. If you like black country new road and/or microphones i think you'll defintnly vibe with it
i don't know if the others in the comments would recommend this to you, but i think you'd really like the Lomelda album "Hannah", it was an indie-folk album that released in 2020 that's a personal fav of mine. You might like it if you like this album
some more recs! fevers and mirrors - bright eyes stranger in the alps - phoebe bridgers souvlaki- slowdive caligula - lingua ignota fetch the bolt cutters - fiona apple
Check out Carissa’s weird-songs about leaving. A hauntingly beautiful album that’s similar to works by bright eyes and Elliot smith and also one of my favorite projects
There’s definitely a lot more great music from spiritualized ( sweetheart sweet light/ laser guided Melodies) and sonic youth ( rather ripped/ sonic nurse/ Murray street). Definitely worth exploring.
‘Broken Social Scene - You Forgot it in People’ would go so hard, has that same 00’s indie feeling.
Omg I love cause=time soooooo much!!
Son dont ever mention BSS and trash ass SA Oberst in the same sentence.
Yessssss, I've been recommending this one forever!

Thanks for this comment
it would be so sick to see ur reaction to a Joanna Newsom album!!! i would reccomend starting with Ys. her albums are works of frickin art
Absolutely

My Morning Jacket and Feist opened and we're cool
Please do By The Time I Get To Phoenix by Injury Reserve PLEAAASE🙏🙏🙏
he should start with Floss then work his way up to By The Time I Get To Phoenix so he appreciates the full musical transformation
this album is amazing, yeah
finallyyyyyy this is why smags the goat man
I WANTED THIS FOR A WHILE.....
Such a perfect album, definitely one of my top 10 of all time
Love the vid as always

Aw man right in the nostalgia, love it! I think you’d dig The Ugly Organ by Cursive 🔥
Repeater by fugazi would be a great reaction, quality album
This was dual release with "digital ash in a digital urn". Totally different style of music but it's really good. I think he's one of the best songwriters ever.
hell yes. you should do their next album after this one (and digital ash, released same day as wide awake) anyway it's called cassadaga.
Cassadaga is peak Bright Eyes. Digital Ash is also goated.
For sure gotta check out the 2 bright eyes albums that came before this one, LIFTED as wells as Fevers and Mirrors
BANGER VID MAN ILY
You should check out Ghosts of the Great Highway by Sun Kil Moon or Rollercoaster by Red House Painters, I feel you'll really mess with it
LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
FINALLY IVE BEEN WAITING
FINALLYYYYYYYYYY WOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
i cant be watching this reaction at work this album makes me cry whxbwicnej

I've been recommending Serotonin ii by Yeule and Caligula by Lingua ignota for months, and I won't give up, I love you
Parachutes by Coldplay recently turned 20 years old, honestly really worth checking out, also the new clairo - charm
You nailed the land locked blues lines. The world would be a more peaceful place if we chose to amicably walk away from conflict.
I can’t be the only person that thinks the female vocals on this album sound so much like Adrianne Lenker I know it’s not but it drives me crazy how much it sounds like her
I thought of that while editing

omg bro the comments have been BEGGIN
Lifted has to be your next Bright Eyes album
LOVE YOUR VIDEOS MY GUY
a few recommendations:
Process - Sampha (experimental r&b, great production)
Nurture - Porter Robinson (light summer electric with fun production)
Koi No Yokan - Deftones (very heavy, sexier and heavier radiohead imo)
Hypochondriac - Brakence (very experimental emo rap, glitch pop)
Reading Writing And Arithmetic - The Sundays (the smiths ish, with beautiful female vocals)
ohhhh.finally breaking out some bright eyes! can't wait to watch!

Gonna keep recommending Ben Folds Five- The Unauthorized Biography of Reinhold Messner until it happens
We need that 'Symbolic' by Death reaction man
FINALLY. One of my favorite albums. You should also listen to Cassadega it’s a little more upbeat but still has the same feel
SMAGS DO THE AGE OF ADZ AND MY LIFE IS YOOUUUUUUUUUUUUUURRRRSSSSS (thanks for this doing this album too it's great.)
You have to listen to after the magic by Parannoul, It's maybe evn better than To See the Next Part of the Dream.
its underrated I definitly should listen to it more again, thanks for the reminder

Fevers and Mirrors next please!!!
fantastic
Awesome Video Man, Highly recommend Ram by Paul McCartney and HiLo by Jack Stauber!! Two of my favorite albums of all time!!!
If you want more folk (but less emo and more progressive) I'd HIGHLY recommend the crane wife by the Decemberists
Crossing my fingers for "Lifted..." eventually 😄
hey you should totally do fiona apple’s ‘fetch the bolt cutters!’ imo it’s her best album. so emotional and sonically interesting. it’s a very rewarding listen.

let’s goooo
You gotta do Hejira - Joni Mitchell 🙏
Goated album 👆👆👆

fevers and mirrors - bright eyes
stranger in the alps - phoebe bridgers
souvlaki- slowdive
caligula - lingua ignota
fetch the bolt cutters - fiona apple
I did souvlaki! It’s grown to be one of my favorites ever
@@smags1082 oh shit i’ll have to watch!! adore souvlaki sm
I feel no shame in saying that this album is a masterpiece.
that’s nice that’s real nice that’s beautiful honestly but Nurture by Porter Robinson
Been trying to recommend this one 😭🙏
Great album, Connor’s got a few more good ones. I’m thinking Between the bars playing at the end was an omen, time to listen to Basement on the hill.
I KNOW THATS RIGHT!!! YUPPPPPPP
heres some suggestions :p
vitalic - flashmob
crystal castles - (III)
Justice - Justice
the unicorns - who will cut our hair when we're gone?
blood orange - negro swan
injury reserve - injury reserve
these aren't this genre though, just albums to recommend
this is the first time i’ve ever seen someone mention vitalic
LETS GOOO (day 2 of asking for Uchu Nippon Setagaya by Fishmans)
this album is kinda a grower so u shld def give it a few listens to get used to the sound more
Check out Carissa’s weird-songs about leaving.
A hauntingly beautiful album that’s similar to works by bright eyes and Elliot smith and also one of my favorite projects
you need to hear Corea's Los Peores 7km De Mi Vida at some point, it's my favorite emo/screamo album ever
There’s definitely a lot more great music from spiritualized ( sweetheart sweet light/ laser guided Melodies) and sonic youth ( rather ripped/ sonic nurse/ Murray street). Definitely worth exploring.
Bright Eyes are great!! I'd love to see what you think of Methodrone by the Brian Jonestown Massacre :) thanks so much for the videos!
