[@hijacker4577]

Exactly what I was thinking

[@Randallsixx13]

Yes.

[@sympathyforthedevil1553]

"Family", released on the 7th of July, 2021, was the first song written for the album "This Is How The World Ends". According to Josh Katz of Badflower, the song was written in real time. "The feelings and realizations I had were brought on while the song was being written," he explained, "I wasn't really telling a story, I was kind of finding the story and learning about myself." He also added, "I hope the song helps someone else with similar issues on either end, as a way to start the conversation or even just inspire people to be a little more mindful of the people we love and who love us, especially now in these insanely divided times, we could all use a reminder. Families and friendships are so important."

[@justinatkins1668]

Josh is a prime example of a far too common occurrence. a sensitive and kind soul who has been through far too much. The idea that we're only given what we can handle is an absolute joke. So many people are broken inside yet smiling on the outside. But, we're in this world together. We CAN heal together. Thank you Badflower for always portraying such meaningful and honest lyrics. I'll always respect your music.

[@bburt21]

Hardest part of self-care for individuals with photographic memories is family. 36.5years 40+ concussions still hearing the same old stories, of what happened to this family. Even for me this song as me tripping. Bad flower is this generations Pink Floyd and this video is The Wall all in one song.

Lyrics: Taste bitter on a guilty tongue It's hard to see I'm the chosen one Fake friends with a camera phone Ugly, drunk, cold and missin' home This home of mine, I see it in my dreams But everyone looks happy, and everyone still likes me This home of mine, I miss it all the time What happened to this family? What happened to this family? I let you down Texts, calls, hugs, birthday cards Being thoughtful can be so hard First 15 years I'm the favourite son Last 15 years I'm the hated one This heart of mine gets blacker all the time Affection makes me nauseous Believe me, I don't want this I hurt my blood tonight, I made my sisters cry I never say 'I love you' even though I want to I'm just my father's son, my mother's kid A shitty brother, I'm nobody's friend And this is all my fault, I only make you cry I don't deserve this family, you're better off without me 'Cause I let you down and I lost my fucking mind And everything got messy and everyone got angry I cursed my blood tonight, it happens all the time Is everyone against me? Has everyone goddamned me? What happened to this family? What happened to this family? What happened to this family? What happened to this family? Don't hate me, don't hate me Don't let me drown I hate goodbyes, so cringy I could die We only say 'I love you' 'cause that's what we're supposed to And most families lie, but I meant it every time And treat you like you're worthless, I never said I'm perfect

[@danyloveretennikov7861]

I can't put in words what Badflower and grandson mean to me and the way they shaped my future. What an absolutely amazing sources of inspiration! I want to thank both of you for your very high quality, well-thought and deep, emotional music. Listening to Badflower made me go "fuck it" and start writing my own, extremely personal stuff just few days back. Even though i'm currently not playing any melodic instrument (only been drumming for almost a year). Surprisingly, my first songs weren't as shit as I thought they would be - got positive feedback from my bandmates, so I'm super excited to work on it with them and bounce of ideas. Right now we're just amateur jam cover group, but i want to take step and start shaping up who we want to be. Thanks to Badflower i realized that my dream is to be in this darker-style rock band where priority is not just showing off, but instead, putting out those raw emotions out, creating an experience which would connect with other people. Even if it would mean playing small dirty club with little to no audience in future. As an amateur who started to delve into music just a year ago and currently, a bandleader, i'm super excited about the future, even though it will be thorny and we will most likely fail a lot and be shit for some time. For grandson, I stumbled upon him when I've read that he's very good friends with guys from Badflowers and it even further strenghten my resolve. Stuff like "thoughts and prayers" just cuts right into the heart. I want my music to have at least some of that impact and resonance. For Badflower, see you guys on 2 concerts in Prague, Czech republic! I'm so glad i got to know you thanks to Palaye Royale. Can't wait to see your amazing craft in person!

This is a amazing song. I heard it on XM Octane today while driving home from work. I drove around an extra 40 minutes hitting replay over and over. So true and emotional, gave me a lump in my throat each time I listened. I went to prison in my early 20s, got out when I was almost 40. My family wants nothing to do with me. Luckily I got out and got a good job but all I have is a lot of money and a nice car, I have no family and the only friends I have are the superficial ones at work. I can't even talk about a big part of my life as it would likely cost me my job. Ghost was great but this is a masterpiece.

Hello me, is this you? I went to prison in late teens and again in mid twenties. Gave everything to my family, when I told them I had cancer, they bailed. Said I was too angry all the time. Once I finish treatment, I'll be starting my life again just like when I was 17 (moved out and hit the streets running). Lots of good people left in the world, as cliché as it sounds, like diamonds in the rough. Head up, move forward.

This song also spoke to me, I'm gonna be 18 and I was put into foster care for no reason, my bio dad and bitch stepmom just said "they're not welcome home" and my and my twin at 15 were thrown into a new house where we didn't know anyone, and for the past 3 years I've been reliving basically what this song describes and looking back at it, I sometimes miss it but it was so so toxic, I'm going to therapy for the 4th time, I'm getting medicated for the second time. I was physically abused, emotionally/psychologically abused (like munchausen syndrome by proxy at some point) and I was sexually assulted multiple times. I tried to commit when I was 13 and almost did it again over quarantine. I have complex ptsd, anxiety, depression, and my therapist now is trying to diagnose me with other things like ADHD and mania. I got adopted in 2020, though, by my loving family, which is great.

If you haven’t listened to this with good headphones, you absolutely must. Every second is full of sonic Easter eggs. Every note is crystal clear and played with purpose.

This is a song I will probably listen to for the rest of my life. It’s an emotional masterpiece. Touches you in the darkest places. “This is all my fault. I only make you cry. I don’t deserve this family. You’re better off without me.” Bring me to tears every time. This song is POWERFUL.

[@JasonLee-df8hx]

Agreed

[@Dustin5bmth]

I heard the tail end of this song today in the car. I found the song. Listened to the whole thing. And it hit me like a ton of bricks. I thought I put my past behind me but I was wrong. I found happiness in this life but this song brought up some dark emotions that I thought I boxed up and threw away. I got home, put the AirPods in and just listened to it on repeat holding my 1 year old son and sang to him. Of course little man just smiled. And it made me feel better. Never knew of this band til today so I’m gonna look up some more of their stuff and listen to it. Great song!

[@lisa-km4ck]

Captjack91, nice comment. All I can say is grab a large glass of wine or what ever you enjoy, a box of tissues and prepare to get some deep feels. This band is truly one of a kind. Like all of us, you found a little jewel. The band, Badflower, released two albums "OK I'M SICK" and THIS IS HOW THE WORLD ENDS". Both are, in my option, masterpieces musically and lyrically. If I were your waitress at a music bar I would suggest, for starters, "Promise Me", "Ghost" "Move Me" and "Daddy" . I found that the more I dug into this band the better they got. Enjoy. . Lisa

But somehow this song resonate to me. I don't know if that is Josh's raw emotion, the lyrycism, the drumbeat,the visual or whatnot but this song is one hell of a masterpiece. Thank you Badflower for continuing the rock genre.

[@brickmate4802]

Sometimes it’s not what a parent did. It’s what they didn’t do. You may need to step outside of your life and look back in. You can’t find what was missing if you are recalling it emotionally through your eyes that told you that your childhood was what a childhood is. Even if we get upset we do not look at the parent in the end of missing out something important or desired by us, but always recorded as a young age of not getting something emotionally wise because we didn’t deserve it. support is great but some parents are supporting their own agenda. For the look to the outside world and to keep tabs on kids life to influence them. You can have this and all the latest clothes but if you didn’t feel that you as you is enough or acceptable then your not in a good mindset. Traumas in childhood are results of both deliberate and accidental occurrences. Emotionally neglected is a hard thing too grab when you can’t compare what’s not there or should be. Even seeing your neighbors getting it and you not, will always be filed in you that you weren’t worthy to get them things obviously if your friend Bobby’s parents are saying it to him. So there must be a reason why you don’t get it.

[@tylerbulloch5889]

Last year was one of the shittiest years of my life. I watched my family get torn apart in front of me night after night. I watched my parents get divorced, my sister move out, my mom moved to Florida. I felt like I lost everything. My dad, the one person I look up to and thought was one of the strongest people ever mentally, was going through some stuff. Covid continued to divide my family. I went another year without seeing my extended family during the holidays. At the end of the day, I just wanted my family to be there for me and most of them weren’t. I just wanted to see certain people and give them a hug and tell them how much they truly mean to me. When I first heard this song, I cried. This is the first song to ever have that impact on me. I played it on repeat. Music has always been there for me when no one else was. A few weeks ago I got to see Badflower live for the first time. When they played Family I screamed it at the top of my lungs and cried. Thank you for this song Josh.

[@dyinghikari1740]

Thank you Badflower. Between this song and "Everyone's an ass hole" has been occasionally stuck in a loop since last month. Occasionally I listen to these songs to remind myself I'm not the only one whose going through tough times. The weight of the world, the weight of my family, and the weight of my job- it feels like it's not meant to be. Being this insightful as well- learning my family's downfalls- I intend to reflect and progress without making the same mistakes. All I want to do is make a decent living, be honest, be humble, and live with integrity. But sometimes peers make this incredibly difficult as I witness their dishonest ways. The way they earn wealth, the way they treat other people, showing me 'right way of doing it' although it benefits nobody at the end of the day and lastly taking the easy way out of situations. The blame game is incredibly outrageous and everyone is a doosh to other people. People can be mean for no reason it feels like. It sometimes amazes me really, how humanity treats itself. Meanwhile, I am having this dilemma where everything feels like a dream. My mind feels numb and I feel sudden confusion. When people talk to me, I feel like I'm not the one whose speaking. I'm also extremely forgetful; I'll do an action and turn right around and already forget what I just did a few minutes ago. Sometimes, this heightens to the point where I internally freak out because of the confusion feelings. Feeling alone, afraid, confused, extremely frustrated with this experience whilst trying to tell people who don't understand and don't know how to properly treat me. It wears off most of the time I sleep but typically I have to be awake. This feeling hits when it shouldn't, and to get rid of it is to rest. I also keep getting hit by random thoughts of wanting to see my family. I haven't seen them in years. We've had a rough start with each other and lately it seems like they've been falling apart with court and just non-stop mishaps. But ultimately who I wanna see, is my siblings. I miss them so much. I regret not hanging out with them as the big brother. I always drowned myself in my video games as my coping mechanism (and is still today, which has began to be problematic to some degrees... longevity wise, I think it hurt me). I recently saw pictures of them, and that's why it sparked; my siblings look completely different from what I last seen them. I was so- god damn shook after seeing them on messenger. After the random call my little sister gave me- I cried. I couldn't believe it. I don't know what I expected... but... I just know I need to see them. This lifestyle of solidarity has been killing me ever since.

I turned 30 last year right around the time they released the song 30... I was already a huge fan of Ghost and now they did it again and dropped a song that strikes me to my core. My name is also Josh and I have failed at gaining my parents approval... not that I care anymore. But of course I'm lying and do miss my mom, dad, and sister sometimes. But it's too late to dwell over. Sometimes you have to distance yourself from people you loved for your own good. I've got a son of my own now and I know exactly who I do not want to be like.

[@wowautumn1000]

I can’t stop listening to this. I haven’t found a song that’s resonated so much with me since I was a teenager. I had a pretty rough childhood living with my dad until I was 14 years old, when he became homeless and I moved in with my mom (who is a freakin’ rock for me), but nonetheless my dad has remarried and my stepmom and step siblings have really alienated me from their family because they don’t know or understand the issues I’ve had with my dad over the years. I try so hard to be civil with everyone at this point in my life, but it’s really hard to watch my dad provide more than I ever had for a family I’m not a part of. I think they’ll forever think of me as the angry high school drop out I was when they met me, instead of who I am now.
