The Ataris - Not Capable of Love

"Not Capable of Love" is the first single from the long-awaited new Ataris album "Welcome the Night," in stores February 20th!

The older I get, the more true this song is.

[@david6201]

2024 here ! This song is unbelievable ❤ And the album is special. Good times... 🥲

[@brittbritt833]

It makes me sad to see that so many people disliked Welcome the Night. In my opinion, it's the best album I ever bought. And then So Long, Astoria. :]

[@Pxrdunk]

Right ?!? For me this and so long Astoria (sorry I can’t chose between them ) are the best ever are really great and I don’t understand neither why people seemed to dislike this album even some critic (rolling stones magazine) disliked it so much for me it’s super deep, great lyrics and more more mature.

[@Giovannirockinsolid]

such a great album! lots of great memories with this one....hangin' at the beach with my buds!

[@LifehouseRust]

this reminds me of somebody i know, he's always there for people, but in return they always seem to forget him. even though he's such a good guy, i bet he feels like this all the time. anywayz, great song :)

[@uselessidguy331]

For those who love to hate Welcome the Night, when (before) did Kris Roe ever write a more profound, complete song than this? Never---although the entire album is full of songs just like this one. It's easily his best work, and probably one of the top five albums of this decade. Everyone apparently "missed the point" of this album; it's not intended to confirm values---it's a gloomy, introspective work which brilliantly illustrates life in all of its ecstasies and agonies. So genuine.

[@postkassa]

So long astoria gave me some of the best music-moments I've ever had!

[@bgeez112]

"whatever lies will help you rest" is, to me, the best song on the album. but this one is good too!

[@kenzieTKD]

I've listened to the ataris since they were signed with Kung Fu Records and i persoanlly think this was a great turn for this band. i love this entire record.

[@christopherkimber7679]

I got into the ataris around “blue skies” and loved everything they did. When this came out, I admit I hated it at first. Then about 2 or 3 weeks after listening to it a few more times, this song absolutely broke me. While I love early ataris, this song is by far my favorite thing written by kris.I visit this album more now than any of his other works. So damn underrated.

[@IronyIsGod]

The Ataris have finally released an album that's consistently excellent from start to finish and I for one salute them for it. Anybody who doesn't get just hasn't grown with the band and is no loss anyway. Genuinely think it's one of the best albums I've heard this side of the millenium and their besy yet and I say that as somebody who's been following them from the beginning.

[@MrsRiku]

i love the ataris! i like this song a lot XD

[@Pianoism023]

I LOVE THEM, this song had a little weird something to it, but i still love it!!!

[@cab00se64]

Blue skies!!

[@uselessidguy331]

Unbelievable song coming off of what will be by far Kris Roe's greatest work. Nothing else he ever has done even compares to Welcome The Night; landmark album.

[@monawarahbilongan4889]

Whos in 2020

[@ianraguse6455]

Me

[@UnitedSpotlight]

end is forever is my fav album easyly but its nice to see them back id of been gutted if they split properly they need to get to the uk sometime soon

[@happypeople40]

i just love the funking band!!! =)

[@bgeez112]

they said on their myspace that the next album will be a lot like their old stuff yay! =D

[@rulospankracio]

I like it, its way different to the old stuff, but the ataris sound still there, also I think that kriss is now more mature...obviusly I mean in a musical way...well he always have been an awesome writer and composer...

[@vivaargentina3181]

Lastima que no esté en mejor calidad The ataris is a great band ❤️

[@jgdparasite]

Well, I miss the Ataris old songs but this album is good too. Different but good.

[@chryslerdriver]

let's hope that the album that's coming this summer will be better than So Long,Astoria. keep your fingers crossed and hope and pray

[@Krieg3]

if you dont like their new album then don't post. Great song! :)

[@Imatictac]

This is not the same band I have loved for so long. RIP Ataris

[@АртёмХрупин-м1м]

Damn fantastic video. It`s real disaster that exists here only in low quality

[@cab00se64]

so long astoris is when it started to go downhill - blue skies!!

[@meandmia]

I think welcome the night is genius and really shows off how Kris Roe & the band have really evolved as a song writers. I love the old stuff too but this really lets the world know that they're more then just "pop-punk/emo" or whatever. That being said, so long astoria and this album rule.

[@TokenChineseGuy]

This is their best fucking album. End of story.

[@billypopali]

its a whole new band, they wanted to change the name from the ataris, but were advised not to, so its not fair to compare it to so long astoria's sound

[@astoriasky]

i followed them since "anywhere but here", and i like how they sound now!if you guys are still 14 year olds crying about your girlfreinds then just listen to another band...jeez! this song is awsome.

[@TimHerbert509]

Yeah dude I miss the days or Teenage Riot! Don't Conform guys keep it real!

[@englishmuffin1114]

Duuuude. Blue Skies FTW.

[@cab00se64]

blue skies all the way, best song is Broken promise ring however I do love the EP look forward to failure, between you and me is a great song

[@uselessidguy331]

It IS their best album by a long shot...and that says a lot, because everything Kris Roe has ever recorded is excellent. I cannot conceive how it wasn't received well critically---if any other band releases this exact same record (for example, The Killers), it's a four-and-a-half star album. Unfair bias against bands derived from the old-school pop punk scene.

[@kickflipindy78]

this song sounds like something HIM would make

[@natuzenteno3101]

2006

[@sparco006]

Am I not capable of love?

[@rocco031]

sounds weird.. the voice its like the guy from "The cure" i miss So long astoria, one of my favourites albums, mejor en español jaja prefiero el disco anterior todas las canciones tenian un sentido pero mi preferida era Looking back on today, me gustaba su mensaje de recordar un viejo amor... I hope the next album will be as a good as So long... y mas aun deseo escucharlos live algun dia, bye people

[@Hornet85]

I do agree that this new album isn't as good as So Long Astoria, which to me, is the best album I've ever had. Nothing beats So Long Astoria. But anyway, not as good doesn't mean that this new one is bad, only because So Long Astoria was phenomenal. I think Kris should had just kept his original voice. Other than that, there are good songs in this new albums too. My favourite is Begin at the Begining.

[@CaeserOct]

They don't sound like the Ataris pre-Astoria, really. It's still a pretty good song.

[@cab00se64]

This is a sad day. One of the bands I grew up with changed to a crappy emo band with black hair and stupid fringes. Blue skies and broken hearts is how I will remember them. RIP Ataris...

[@paisano0]

damn did they record this in a tin can

[@hotkonda]

It's not the same as their old stuff, but it does not mean its not good. Variation is something that everyone must adapt to. Good musicians are not suppose to play the same shit and same sound over and over. If he's being true to who he really is and how he feels, who the fuck cares.

[@chiptune_]

Amazing song, but the sound quality here is poor.

[@Razoroath]

so long astoria is the best album, even though blue skies could be better O.o

[@chryslerdriver]

older albums are better... hope they release a album that looks like so long astoria or end is forever on myspace they say there will be a new album

[@weakweek85]

uh...i think you've got it backwards, buddy. this is actually pretty unique. before they were just another pop punk band. and how was so long astoria so unique? their biggest single was a don henly cover.

[@wreckless83]

Whoever said that this was the best album they ever made is on crack. End Is Forever, Blue Skies..., and So Long, Astoria were way better

[@IceBirdy1]

too bad the old band members couldn't stick around a little longer. Thank god kris is still making music though, got to respect that

[@Jameswade2k]

Don't worry he's shaved it now lol. Looks like he's going bald too! But it's the music that matters, and I personally love this track (shame its the best on the new cd.)

[@alocer1]

Better than so Long Astoria, not as good as blue skies, anywhere but here, and end is forever. Ataris where punk rock they where never pop punk. Kris a legend, best song writer ever to walk this earth, but I know hes grown up from his punk days. Just try not to forget your old school fans when you play your gigs. Anyone wanna enlighten me on why kris is playing a left guitar the correct way instead of a righty the wrong way?

[@Astronaut890]

his voice used to be so good, now he synthed it all up and changed to an emo tone. In my opinion they sold out to mainstream style with the emo-craze. This is a sad perversion of kris roe's previous genius. long live so long, astoria

[@curuzu]

jaj maTo el cambio d idioma

[@misfitglory182]

I like this song....but I do have to say that End is Forever is always one of my favorite albums of theres and in comparison...well it just doesnt match up. I have only heard this one song so far but the music just doesnt match Kris Roes lyrical abilities ): eMiLy

[@clei41]

I have absolutely nothing against they changing their style... but at least they could keep roe's voice... he's... singing in a different way... his voice just sounds different and his voice was the second thing I liked the most about ataris, the first one is theyr lirics I saw them live playing the new album and they sound great... but here I hear so many effects over his voice... I simply didn't like it after edited

[@jediron169]

You mean teenage girls who shop at hot topic and will dump the Ataris like a bad habbit when the next big thing comes out? Its good for bands to change up their sound or to grow and mature, but to totally change your sound and alienate your core fans is a bad place you don't want to go.

[@stinger434]

what i loved about the Ataris so much was the catchiness of their music. this just doesn't do it for me. sorry Kris.

[@Likefood267]

wow...this sounds nothing like their "so long astoria" album....=[

[@IceBirdy1]

man... what's going on here? I'm trying to like it but... shit dude! this is not the kris i remember. Listen to 1*15*96.. one of my favorites of their earlier music, classic.

[@natecorning]

ok well im not saying the ataris are bad but this song comes no where close to anyhting on there last cd, that was pure genius. they sound alot different and in my opinon they sound alot worse.

[@Alsax1985]

Change is not good.

[@onedayhero]

wtf so long Astoria was a fucking suck pop album. blue skies broken hearts next 12 exists. Now that was an album!

[@eagle1337]

I don't like the effect they put on his voice.. other that it's a good song.

[@Imatictac]

So Long Astoria was not their best album... and neither is this one. It's all about Blue Skies Broken Hearts... Next 12 Exits, but that's arguable. The fact is that they have grown far from their roots: now they are pop.

[@kautot090]

Kris Roe is my hero, But this album definitely sucks. i want the old ataris back!!!!!

[@towerguarder]

he looks wierd here.. but the song is'nt bad..

[@uzipinkyring]

why guys why did you have ruin the ataris i used to know!!!! :(

[@dhxlive]

He is so freaking talented, but this new album is awful. Really, the sound is grabage, and he is so creative, confusing, hope he puts out another great album soon, he has produced a lot of great stuff... but this....man I miss the 90's for music

[@SourGrasshopper]

yeah i agree this isnt cool

[@iFraseri]

not their finest moment? this song sucks compared to the amazing 'so long, astoria' It was an incredible album, every track, this is not a very solid comeback. If it is a comeback at all. I'm disappointed

[@kautot090]

yo buttmonkey will Kris Roe make another album like his old songs??not this crap songs he plays in his new album, it's just i'm really disappointed in his new album...thanks dude

[@GSkillz098]

i didn't care for this album to be honest. wasn't that great. So Long, Astoria was my favorite

[@PunkPixxie]

This song is, OK. Definetley not as good as the past songs though.

[@tiredghosts]

Shittiest use of computer effects I've ever seen. That being said, the song isn't super terrible, just, The Ataris have become a regular emo band. This isn't stand out music. And personally, I was never fond of the old stuff. Blue Skies was decent. The only album I really liked was So Long, Astoria. Because it was beautiful. I have a feeling this CD won't be great. What happened to the extra members?

[@storyofreyesyear]

Welcome the night was a terrible cd

[@Imatictac]

This is not the same band I have loved for so long. RIP Ataris

[@onedayhero]

wtf so long Astoria was a fucking suck pop album. blue skies broken hearts next 12 exists. Now that was an album!
