Balance and Composure - cross to bear (Official Music Video) 

This band will never make a bad song.

I have had neither Balance nor Composure since this dropped

That silhouette shot of Jon with his mouth glowing is crazy.

I think Balance and Composure are the most underrated band in the genre. You guys are simply amazing.

only b&c can make the lyric "I came to fuck around" poetic

Very much the things we think we’re missing mixed with light we made. I’m so ready for this album

All time favorite band, undisputed.

The craziest thing, is just that this band has a sound that resonates with so many people but not other bands. There's not a replacement for this sound, and we all yearn for it. Thanks for rocking, boys.

the boys are back :') ; next Title Fight!!!! for the culture!!! lol

we back we back we back

I'm so unbelievably fucking hype

I lived a sad existence until I got the word they were back. Me and my gf drove to Philly to see them when they came back and then got to see them at riot fest. Love you guys. The music has kept me from ending myself several times and I will never forget what the music means to me

reactivated my tumblr account after this one

This band will forever be one of my favorite bands ever.

The lore in this woman with no face this album I know is crazy

So fkn ready for this, I can't believe we'll actually get a new album after all this time. Nothing but tears of joy

Don't stop writing tunes guys. The vibes on this track are legendary.

This has been helping me cope with the absence of circa. So glad these guys are actually back and not just dropping singles or eps

Came a long way from where they started. It’s pretty incredible how well it’s all come together these days . Looking forward to the album

i think balance and composure has the ethereal sensation that elvish cultures in high fantasy tend to have. They feel akin to a druid playing a lute in a fae forest, something so transient and more in it all.

I like the reference to the album cover Separation.

So happy I can cry!! B&C have been one of my favorite bands for the past 13 years!!

So happy you are back! LETSSSSSS GOOOOOO.

Cant wait for the new album. Last year's EP was such a tease 🤘

The sky is falling down. Somewhere there's a tear If God came running down, it's my cross to bear I am the best around. Test me if you dare I came to fuck around and spoil your affair I want to catch you by surprise I want to see both your bodies in covers I want to cut you down to size I want you looking over your shoulder I came from the stars and ordinary people can't believe it when they see me Tear fashion apart. We are not one and the same, not cut from that cloth We know who you are, ignorant to consequence and vicious at heart Tell me I'm wrong. Honestly haven't been careful at all You're gathering stone to build something tall You know the ending is my favorite part And if God's really showing, where do you go then? Would hate to see you get so anxious and caught off guard Stay where you are I was so ready to tear this whole thing apart Letting you off I want to catch you by surprise I want to see both your bodies in covers I want to cut you down to size I want you looking over your shoulder I want to catch you by surprise I want to see both your bodies in covers I want to cut you down to size I want you looking over your shoulder

Very excited for the new album this song is great

This band doesn’t miss, ever. So thankful to hear new music. I went to both farewell shows in Boston and I was heartbroken 😂

That guitar 🫠 so sickk. what a beautiful song, Jon. Missed yall.

This was probably so fun to record

B&C music has always meant SO MUCH to me. I have loved every album cover to cover. Crying because I'm so excited for this! 😭

I love that this band has grown with me

Amazing lyrics and music. Totally dope. Crazy good

I wish I knew what this song was about already - must have lyricssss.

This song is such a vibe!

i love his reference from the separation album cover. amazing

This band is simply perfect!

I have had this on repeat since it came out. The chorus stays with me even when i'm not listening to it. Thank you for such a beautiful song and for continuing to not ever make a bad song.

so beautiful. i live to hear music that embraces my ears so

This is such an articulate and graceful expression of heartbreak.

I had no words while watching this music video; just tears. Thank you for showing what, to me, grief feels like. It helps remind me that I’m not alone. This album is going to absolutely wreck me emotionally, but I know it will also help me heal. Thank you 🩵

oh huns. you announced something new and I dove. I could never believe b&c was down forever. 2019 didn’t fool me 🩵 I already bought October DC tickets. Thanks for the extra show in Philly back then. It really made m6 life. I was too scared and had no one to go w in 2010, but I’m so happy now. Thank y’all sm

This is straight fire! I was so heartbroken when they disbanded cause I knew we were losing one of the most important bands of our time. So glad they are back

Hands down my favorite band of all time. Beyond grateful for your return. Cannot express my excitement for this album

I can’t believe they are back

This video is unreal. Such a great song love seeing new content from this band

Hell yes boys!!! ❤

Love the song and the video. Welcome back Balance and Composure, for one of your biggest fans.

Jon saw the tv glow.

This makes the years of waiting so worth it!

ugh ..so good

This album is going to be great

Yessssssss !!!!! Thank you 🙏🏻

I have a masterpiece to look forward to and keep my peace of mind in these hard times. Love you b&c, you have my heart forever 🖤

I don't know if ya'all know this, but this is officially the best band to discover while on the most life-changing, ferociously odd yet introspective (psilocybin) trip of your life I can prove it [hencetoforth]

This song is on repeat Jesus this is amazing 🤩🤩🤩

It’s impossible for them to make a bad song. Love all ur stuff Balance and Composure 🫶🏻💕✨

lyrics go so hard

been listening to this everyday. great song. the bass guitar with the ambiance of the guitars is so relaxing.

I discovered you guys one day while listening to audiotree live, after the band went into hiatus/broke up. Thought I would never get to hear any new music from you guys. So happy you guys decided to make new music.

luv how it has today's date on the camera, yall smart.

I'm glad im not the only one who feels this way

I’m 6 seconds in and already in love

This song sounds so fucking cool!

Beautiful song and video. This was one of the most unique and interesting music videos I’ve ever seen. Very fun to watch as well. So thankful we got more B&C music 💚

WE ARE SOOOOOO BACK

Dudes will never not be poetic as hell

By far one of my favorite bands! Let’s go boys!

after all these years, you guys are my favorite ❤️

Soooo gooodd ❤

the trail cam shots are sick nasty

It's good to have B&C back... It's a sign that a new chapter is about to begin in our lives

Best fuckin band in the last 20 years

I love this band more and more every time I listen to them. So unbelievably happy they came back. This is probably my favorite song of this year so far.

Watching the video at 11:45 pm on 5/29/24 had me feeling like I missed this by only a few minutes, even though it came out 13 hours ago. So trippy but really what an amazing band and song

I love Jon just vibing in the woods 🕺💃

It's great to see the gang back together pedal to metal poetry.

I love you guys so much! 😭😭😭 loved this new song and I can’t wait for the new album 🖤

Fantastic. Thank you.

🔥🔥🔥 HEATER 🔥🔥🔥

BaC bringing balance and composure back to today's music.

I fucking love this. Makes me think of “Enemy” a bit from TTWTWM, a different kind of moody tho

Come to South America 🇨🇱 ❤

So beyond stoked they’re back in full swing with banger after banger

I still can’t believe I got to meet Jon at a show in South Carolina last year where he was performing his side stuff

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Song is insanely good. Love the growth in melodies, soundin more and more R&B inspired so freakin smooth!!

Can’t wait for the album. So stoked.

I’m so glad I didn’t kill myself so I lived long enough for a new B&C record!!!
