The Wonder Years Band • Page 124

and it's a super fucking cool way of connecting those two eras of the band

 

Dumb question but the US bundle isn't up right?

 

There was a MerchNow link to a vinyl boxset pre-order and I know people in TWY Collective who've purchased it using that link but it's been taken down for now.

 

Cracking up at all of them playing in the Hank suit.

 

Pre-video commercial was hilarious

 

soupy with big stir crazy energy here

 

Watched the video, am almost positive I see 16 year old me in one of the 2010 clips lol

 

new song is such a tune. it's like all the lessons about dynamics and progression they've learned over the years applied to a Suburbia track

 

This is better than Brakeless, but those screams. Ooooffff

 

New track is good. I also love Dan's cover of "All Too Well", especially because he replaces "till you tore it all up" with "till you fucked it all up" which adds an extra bit of frustration to the whole thing

 

The choruses of both of these songs are everything I love about this band.

 

Got the signed pressing for being a top listener on Spotify, I am very happy.

 

Just missed the Spotify exclusive by seconds...

 

THE UPSIDES / SUBURBIA 10 YEAR ANNIVERSARY

Everything is up on the band’s site. Waiting on the Hopeless variant because I think it looks better.

Hopeless store: The Wonder Years

 

Got the signed Spotify one. So excited

 

Got the galaxy from the band's site

 

damn, I was hoping for just a stand alone suburbia vinyl option

 

Man I want the neon sign or one of the pennants so badly. Fucks sake.

 

Damnnnn I get paid tomorrow. How quickly do we think they’ll sell out?

 

"07. Don’t Let Me Cave In/Woke Up Older (Voice Note God’s Butt Demo, 8-23-10, 8:44 am)"

This was a "venue" (some dude's basement) in Birmingham AL where I saw The Menzingers before OTIP came out. Also if memory serves me correctly, this lines up with the Fireworks/MDAM tour where there was a professionally shot picture of me singing along and pointing and accidentally sticking my finger in Soupy's mouth. Good times.

EDIT: Nevermind, that was a year later. This was the night before I saw them for the first time open for NFG. Still really cool.

 

already gone on their website

 

Damn had the galaxy variant in my cart but was hesitating to pull the trigger because I wasn't sure if there were other options, and then tried to check out and it said sold out, so I just ordered the Hopeless one. A little more than I should've spent but I don't have either of these and know I would've been upset if I didn't get it.

 

Would’ve hopped all over this if I didn’t already own the upsides. Some pretty cool merch items here though!

 

I would’ve loved to get it. Sucks it’s so limited.

Hopefully the demos will be available later at least.

 

Welp. I guess I didn’t need to spend more money
