Hit the Heartbreaks by. Black Kids

[@fetalfirefight]

The best EP of the blog/buzz band/pitchfork hype days. Lost most of it's magic when they rerecorded for the LP but this version still transports me back to that wistful freshman year of college

[@Thomas-px2lh]

Nice thoughts and agreed. The album was the shits.

[@kingoflowendpaintball1040]

Couldn't agree more!

[@CaptainOats74]

me too. When I first heard "not gonna teach..." I was instantly reminded of The Cure.

[@langstonr2805]

I guess I'm the only one listening to this in 2020🤷‍♂️

[@yaxxee]

I totally forgot about this band, just found it looking back on my Favourites. Music like this reminds me of the simpler times when I was young!

[@effie1349]

I'm here too

[@alanmartinez4231]

La mejor versión de esta canción !

[@jaxxey]

Going to see them in June, can't wait. There was amazing as Kate Nash's support band.

[@JamesPCroad]

This is so good... all that needs to be said.

[@therealDannyVasquez]

This sounds a lot better than they did on jools holland. They were quite shocking. this however is quite decent. good sound, I like the ambient guitars, very haunting. Nice3 :)

[@herzeliedstein573]

I always wondered why this EP sounds ten times better than the album they put out

[@KoopaBOOEY]

I was having a drought of good music to listen to until I heard Black Kids a few days ago. Fucking awesome band! If I like an album a lot, I buy their album. And I bought the last one at Best Buy today,

[@asterkist]

It's very rare that I listen to new music, have to say that these guys are very cool though!

[@Thomas-px2lh]

One of the best EPs ever. Fucking iconic.

[@marokokisetter]

wizard of ahhs version is the best. they should have kept this lo-fi aesthetic, it sounded great. sigh, i remember in '07 being hyped on this ep. good memories.

[@stard00]

man ... the guy who produced this song made a miracle, hear this version vs the one in partie traumatic

[@TransylvaniaTapes]

yes - this one is 100x better.

[@RaizaSharpe]

Such a good song

[@icebear002]

nice song !! great band

[@Xerolinder]

Love this tune!

[@goldengoodness44]

awesome! i love this band :D

[@KoopaBOOEY]

@TheDollyTube I believe this is their last album they released, and their first. If you check out their Wikipedia page, it states that they are working on a new album.

[@yettysmack]

nice song first time i heard it on Tripple J :-)

[@MolitorCa]

@Gaaralover680 Wikipedia is the second most unreliable source on the internet to youtube comment sections. But the bands website has the lyrics and the title is "Heartbrakes"

[@itsnotsunnyanymo]

great song!

[@Elrick09]

I lost this EP, someone can upload?

[@tiadoran]

You mean the secondary percussion or just the fact that there's a bridge? Something strange does seem to happen to the secondary percussion at the beginning but it may be other instruments drowning part of the rhythm out. Sounds fine once the bridge kicks in. Great song though. My favorite BK song so far.

[@conor7205]

omg i just seen them on jools hooland and i love them!! i love the lead singers hair too! has the free download been taken down because it is n't free anymore??

[@atowncalledmalice944]

@marokokisetter I totally agree, I remember being so disappointed when the album came out

[@joshpriest5301]

Greg Stevenson I know it has been years you posted this comment, but can you tell me why were you disappointed

[@fetalfirefight]

They rerecorded the songs from the EP and they just had the soul sucked of them

[@rmelgar]

At first I tought they were some silly band for children. But they're actually good, even souding a bit like the Cure

[@rossturcotte419]

can you please upload this full ep?

[@luminator1234]

sick song

[@afrokid53]

i second that, im not gunna teach your boyfriend was changed to suit a wider audience, wrecked it for me.

[@KoopaBOOEY]

@ThreeSecondsago I was talking about the Best Buy I was at, not all Best Buys nationwide.

[@yhababy01]

very 70s like it!

[@tony0966]

Me too

[@lowcorrelation]

lol thank god? thank your counselor! :)

[@dumbstuffed]

Sorry that I was late on Black Kids,but "Boyfriend" didn't slay me...it was "I'm making eyes at you" I am in the US and someone made me listen to it,and I became a fan. I am happy that you were there WAY before me,but I jumped on before "boyfriend" I get why you feel that way. Having been a Death Cab fan from 1999,I can see it.

[@binstig]

i think it sounds good. music isnt about perfection and im pretty sure its supposed to be like that anyway

[@amandaharris2885]

Heartbreak bridge

[@ChocolatePoop1301]

How did they get their name?

[@WyattDstevens12]

it is i got the full ep i swear

[@IsabellaLomax]

I'm sorry but Wikipedia says it's spelled "Heartbrakes" soooo who's lying?

[@kikk210]

[@fahrunsnachhause1942]

[@danhoppusdelonge]

[@novan08]

[@tony0966]

Similar sound to The Cure

[@zapatosdeduende]

[@mikefat6773]

こっちの方がいいな

[@afrokid53]

[@CoolBlokeAndABit]

[@goldengoodness44]

just heard the new ablum version...not even close to this one

[@namraj]

good song, bad production on this recording

[@ChildOfTheSettingSun]

What the fuck is that??

[@inglesidecatamaran]

A message to this band, if they can hear it: YOU ARE NOT BLOC PARTY. YOU ARE NOT BRITISH. PLEASE STOP MAKING MUSIC. Bernard Butler, I've lost all respect for you for agreeing to produce this abomination.

[@betamaxreal]

Fucking based
