This is such a great Bayside album, loving it.

this was sweet for their merch guy dom, it happened in chicago, cool someone recorded it!

 

I'm really enjoying this album and had never listened to them before. I love the mildly dramatic vibes along with the catchiness. Where am I best to go to next in their discography?

Tempted for the UK tour but given its a chronological 2 set show I need to familiarise myself some more before I decide.

 

Killing Time and Interrobang are good next steps!

 

this is a cool story about the wolf shirt

For the things you said you liked, you'd want to start with The Walking Wounded (Victory Records years), but you really can't go wrong (I think Interrobang probably sounds the most like this one). Catchiness and mildly dramatic vibes are some of the band's core qualities.

For a general non-chronological listening path, I'd recommend:

The Walking Wounded
Bayside (and then Acoustic)
Killing Time
Vacancy or Interrobang (the latter if you want the heavy version of the band first)
There Are Worse Things Than Being Alive
Cult
Shudder
Sirens & Condolences

 

Any idea when this whole comp comes out?

 

Great song, cool cover. They really Bayside-ified the hell out of that bridge, haha.

 

One of my favorite songs covered by one of my favorite bands. Love this.

 

Anthony's new solo album drops tomorrow. Pretty excited to hear it as it'll likely be a huge departure from Bayside.

Might hit up his solo show next Wednesday as well.

 

I missed that he was putting out new solo music. Excited to check it out!

 

I’m on the fence on that one. I’m seeing Origami Angel the night before and the old man in me is already upset at one weeknight show lol. Would be cool to see him at Grog Shop tho.

 

My issue is I have to coach my son's basketball team that night, which won't end until 7:45...so by the time I get him home and back out to the grog shop, I'd be cutting it super close to 8:45/9 and Anthony has been posting his set times most nights and some nights he has been going on as early as 8:15 p.m. and most nights before 9.

Both my sisters and my brother-in-law already bought tickets but I can't commit to a ticket until i see the set times that day. I can't imagine that would sell out, right?

I also have Cavs tickets that night, but will exchange them for another game.

 

Dang
