Gotta love The Menzingers! Hello Exile is a fantastic album. Another great band I've been listening to alot lately is Somos. A bit more pop in their sound and quite heavy on the synths. But many songs remind me of The Menzingers when it comes to lyrical themes and such.

I love somos too! especially Prison on a Hill

Great band, great live show. Love them.

What a nice short video-essay! I'm also at a point in my life where the themes presented here really resonate with me - isn't life just full of wonderful coincidences.

Glad you enjoyed it!

Damn I just realized that I’ve been mispronouncing the band’s name for years

[@PopPunkApologist]

I used to always say "Mez-in-jers", like 'messengers' with a 'z'

It was strange going through my KZbin and seeing the After the Party album cover. If anyone likes the nostalgia that The Menzingers give in their lyrics, you'll probably like The Gaslight Anthem too. I love both of those bands and I think they have some of the best lyrics ever.

Sadly I think both of those bands fly well under the radar, especially on youtube.
