That last image of the band together is a heartbreaker. They made some great music together.

[@LostRams]

they really did

[@to_bad_to_die]

real

[@joshs5135]

Seeing “5 years ago” on this video hurts. Still feels like yesterday when this came out. Hope Bren is doing okay these days

[@andrew71888]

On Twitter he keeps us updated. Last he said he was still in rehab, and he hasn't been able to pick up his guitar. He's not doing too well.

The ending where he sings like he has tears in his eyes, that shaky voice...damn, feels overload.

[@xDPx-zh7vr]

"You are the ember of my ❤️ Whether you like that or not" Being in love with someone who no longer loves you back. We've all been there. And yes you hear every bit of it in Jake's voice.

[@pouringrainxo]

The fossils of my footsteps will be unearthed At a far off date unknown Impressed in concrete from walking home alone After walking you home And the mops of greasy hair Will romanticize my despair But they won't know That I didn't care I like the silence I like the empty streets Crawl down 'em on hands and knees in a heartbeat If I had to I owe 'em that at the very least The map had faded out, but I could have sworn I noted every stride I guess the rain hit Before the ink could dry And where I thought I'd be Was not what I perceived Assessing the progress From beneath your sheets That's why I need the silence I need the empty streets Just as bad as they don't need me It's a sick, sad sham of a marriage But it's all there is It's all I need I can be everything you need If you make me I can be every crack in your concrete If you let me off easy I can be easily deceived If you want that But you are the ember of my heart Whether you like that or not

[@ericcantsk8]

I love the guitar screeches, they make this song so much better

[@jim122]

Makes it raw and real, like he’s just picked it up and started playing

[@zeroeleven6551]

The best way to experience this song is walking home from spending time with someone you love but will never know you love them.

[@GoodfellasX21]

I did that in the 2000s, listening to Boxcar Racer on my iPod. This gives me a similar vibe.

[@patmckman]

I feel sorry for people who don't listen to music like this.

[@THRASH3RZz]

easily one of my favorite comments of all time! Hell yeah dude!

[@patmckman]

Sean Echnat It's so true man...lol

[@coles467]

It's sad how disgusting the music on the radio is. This is music.

[@patmckman]

If only I could meet people that like this music where I live :(

If you can't, share it. don't be afraid about what people think about your music.

'But you are the ember of my heart Whether you like that or not' One of my favorite Modern Baseball lines ever. It's powerful, and the music video showed it well. Fantastic as always

[@MayaTheBeeeeee]

I asked my friends -what musical genre is this? -teenage suffering -oh... ok then, it fits with our situation I wish I had discovered this band when I was 16, now I'm too old for teenage suffering

[@MayaTheBeeeeee]

Angst comes in all ages and sizes

[@boba3597]

4 months till my 20th birthday. 4 months until I'm to old for Teenage Suffering.

[@joemode843]

I'm almost 17, the perfect age to be listening to this music

[@davidmitchell-baker1701]

I'm 21 and Modern Baseball are the most important band in my life.

[@dustinbrown8985]

Also 21 and need modern baseball daily. Bt i also need sorority noise and scowl brow. especially scowl brow

[@dumpstercub2902]

This song reminds me of those days where you have to go home alone from work or school. The sun is setting but it’s raining so it just looks like night, you sit on the train and bus watching hg raindrops race each other and thinking about that person in your last class who you want to talk to so badly about everything but can’t. On the walk home you don’t just walk, you take breaks to spin or look at things, maybe run for a bit. I love those days.

[@madeleinep.828]

That’s such a perfect description! You’re a great writer.

[@dumpstercub2902]

- madeleine - big thank

[@madeleinep.828]

Big welcome 👍

[@sinatragaming3342]

this made me cry knowing how that feels

[@austyn7883]

Ik this is 2 years ago but..dude if you don't pick up a guitar and get your ass in a studio

[@ImTrxppy]

It gets me every time when he says "but it's all there is, it's all i need" and I have no idea why.

[@con1056]

I love this song and video because it shows that you can be sad even if your life is a blast and have everything going for you. You can still be sad without having any reason to be.

[@jesmens]

this song will always remind me of the cold weather at 3am. It also makes me very emo lol fuck i miss them so much

[@CynicalDuty]

I never appreciated this song until I listened to it with the music video

[@vojtechmartinek]

exactly!

[@octaviogonzalez8794]

Ool koo l

[@user-oy1eq3bc3n]

Every time I hear that closing verse, that final guitar part, a part of me shatters and I start thinking about how MOBO is probably never coming back. They were far too perfect in all ways possible.

[@xScreamToRisex]

Damn, right into the feels

[@bulb1259]

Damn, this song is like a cold night. I dig it.

[@gracesoldesi958]

This is probably the most beautiful song i've ever heard. I don't know why but this made me cry happily and that's strange for me.

[@tgilliss1]

Jake and Brendan sound wicked similar tbh

[@tonguepunchsr]

+Tristan Gilliss They really do. When I first started listening to them I thought Brendan sang everything.

i always thought brendan was a lot more nasally if that makes sense

One of my favourite modern baseball songs

[@janderson9313]

I really like the video, really captures the feeling of the song

[@simonfreak5]

These guys are like the only band I've ever heard that doesn't use aftereffects on their voice. Hats off guys, this is what real music sounds like...

[@coryhurlock9302]

Um jake def has reverb on his voice dude.

[@dog8438]

simonfreak5 they still used editing. But they still sound legit and a little imperfect and I love it

[@armandhani958]

Hei guys, i still miss you. Take your time, be happy, be good, and be kind to yourself.

[@jimihendboy]

I've honestly never felt a more personal song. Just pure emotion.

[@MSAZgreen]

this song makes me so sad. the lyrics wound me, the guitar, the strings, his voice. I'm on the verge of crying right now. I'm grateful for this song.

[@ohhellfire2728]

this is the best song they've written thus far. that's pretty huge. my favorite song on this album was fine, great for a while. then i realized how perfect this song is.

[@TheKickback21]

These guys should do a split with The Front Bottoms.

[@ohhellfire2728]

yes pls. i need more brian.

***** Bought my tickets around 12 yesterday haha

[@spencersundstrom2658]

I remember being 15 when I first heard this song. I didn’t realize how special it was then, but this is definitely one of the most impactful songs I’ve ever heard

[@racnoonracnoon]

coming back to this after the demo. still love the demo to death but this just hits that chord in me

[@megaklok]

Soilwork at the end. Most on point song ever written and I played the ending of the song to the girl of my dreams. Hopefully that works out for the best.

[@-thesignpainter9486]

Im 16 rn, I’ll be sure to come back in a few years

[@Stevers8D]

I agree, this song really hits the heart, it creates those "feels" vibe and makes you think about the complexities of emotions and relationships among different people. I discovered them at 22-23 and now getting back into them at 30 and all my other old go to bands damn i'm starting to get old. LOL I love their whole dynamic as a band tho, they seem down to earth, a goofy group of friends who enjoy making music together because its their passion.

[@isabelharris769]

I love you

[@madeleinep.828]

Everything about this song and music video is beautiful.

Agreed, neighbor
