If you haven’t heard the songs in a long time (or ever), consider checking them out before voting.
Cheerios4u98 Posted March 29, 2022 Posted March 29, 2022 two bands I don’t like lol. I’ll come back later after I can actually listen to these 1
Jan Mortensen Posted March 29, 2022 Posted March 29, 2022 Both major hits. Both same equalities of emo to me. Have gotten into Modern Baseball a lot more this year so like them a lot right now but At Your Funeral is an all time classic. Chris Conley is one of the most underappreciated writers of our gen too. Ignoring the creepy stalking thing for now.
Elisa Posted March 29, 2022 Posted March 29, 2022 At Your Funeral, but Your Graduation is such a great song. 2
Champ182 Posted March 29, 2022 Posted March 29, 2022 Fuuuuuck I love both of these so much.... but At Your Funeral may deserve to win the whole damn thing.
thongrider Posted March 29, 2022 Posted March 29, 2022 At your funeral, but that other song was surprisingly good. 1
Rickay Posted March 29, 2022 Posted March 29, 2022 Horrible match up for the first round. Modern Baseball still have almost 900k monthly listeners on Spotify which is crazy. 1

Scott. Posted March 30, 2022 Posted March 30, 2022 How anyone can vote that baseball shite over at your funeral is beyond me. I don’t even like saves the day but that song is amazing 2
Rickay Posted March 30, 2022 Posted March 30, 2022 The first 7 songs on Sports are pretty much emo perfection

Haha I don't think there's much you have to try to get, they were just super solid mix of indie/pop punk/emo with great melodies and clever lyrics and the type of camaraderie and "best friends having fun" vibes that are always super endearing. I thought their albums had a great trajectory too - "Sports" was the warmup, kinda hit or miss while they found their sound but very promising, I think they recorded it at their college's music building or something. "You're Gonna Miss It All" was a super fun huge leap forward in songwriting/production and would've had hit after hit in a fair and just music industry haha. And then "Holy Ghost" was a more experimental confessional album written about going through grief and severe depression. Not many bands evolve like that in a 4 year run, and I thought they were going to be around for a long long time. 16 hours ago, Rickay said: Yep, definitely left everyone wanting more.

Jan Mortensen Posted March 30, 2022 Posted March 30, 2022 It took me a while to get into Modern Baseball. It comes off initially as really mid-tier knock off blink stuff or whatever you want to call all those bands that came out after Blink. But as I dug into their stuff more by recommendation, they really do grow on you as their own thing. 'Fine, Great' started my dive..love that song..and now songs like Graduation are better to me after finding their banger. 1
Nasa Posted March 30, 2022 Posted March 30, 2022 I saw Slaughter Beach Dog live a few months ago, they were great. 1
