Speedo Posted May 5, 2017 Report Share Posted May 5, 2017 I like that Boxcar song. They might be the perfect wedding band though .... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Speedo Posted May 5, 2017 Report Share Posted May 5, 2017 Also, I'm listen to Dear You right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elisa Posted May 5, 2017 Report Share Posted May 5, 2017 Always loved Jawbreaker, I got into them when I was younger with Dear You because all the bands I liked were into them or talked about them but I have been able to appreciate them better in my 20s. Blake is one of my favourite singwriters. And I can't wait to see the documentary because I love their music but I don't know much about their history and stuffs like that, it'll be awesome. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
milkmilklemonade Posted May 6, 2017 Report Share Posted May 6, 2017 I love Jawbreaker. They're one of these bands whose music is great (or, at least, better than average) in almost every respect. Got to love the thoughtful and well-written lyrics, unusual song structures and emotional rawness (even though all of it has been said a thousand time before). Also, Blake is a huge Unwound fan, which is all the more reason to like them for me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elisa Posted May 6, 2017 Report Share Posted May 6, 2017 Guys, you should check them out! Dear You is the most accessible album, but I love them all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elisa Posted February 27, 2018 Report Share Posted February 27, 2018 I just casully read a review of a show in Brooklyn last night and at some point it says: Matching Jawbreaker’s gripping songs was some very memorable stage banter from Blake, which is often poetic and often took on the current sad state of political and social affairs. At one point, he apologized for any impact his band may have had on third wave emo (“a terrible, terrible thing”), and wished for a world with “no more Jesse Laceys” (who he referred to as a “Long Island millionaire rapist”) I don't know why it just hit me!

_Kyle_ Posted February 28, 2018 Author Report Share Posted February 28, 2018 Jesse Lacey died that night I imagine. Saw him do Accident Prone live acoustically once. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

_Kyle_ Posted March 1, 2018 Author Report Share Posted March 1, 2018 I mean, Nirvana seemed to love them and got them their major label heat to sign with Geffen. Crazy to think about. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People hate Lucero but their cover of Kiss The Bottle is probably the best rendition of a Jawbreaker song done by anybody other than Jawbreaker.

Elisa Posted March 1, 2018 Report Share Posted March 1, 2018 every time I say that i like them everyone says that they're shit. I really don't know anyone who likes them! I think they're a great band and they have some very good songs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elisa Posted March 1, 2018 Report Share Posted March 1, 2018 and you can see from their lyrics that they are definitely inspired by jawbreaker and jets to brazil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_Kyle_ Posted March 1, 2018 Author Report Share Posted March 1, 2018 I actually haven't listened to them in 10 or so years, but I remember liking them! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
