aka poor people doing everyday things to them as that's all they know and want to do but to those that haven't lived that life, they'll say people escaping reality, their ticket out.
We used to only do this on the weekends. But now it’s almost every single night. I hear you down the hallway back there puking. I hear your pompous college friends; they’re puking outside. So, I pull your drawers and fill up your sink, make everything exactly how you hate it all to be (because I’m not trying to hold your hair). No, love won’t pass through me because I’m far too cynical for faith and make believe. There’s no such thing as love. We just felt vulnerable without a God, without a crutch or anything else to lean on. There’s nowhere else, nobody else, nothing.
fuck why are their music so deep dude I need to email them and tell them to take it easy or tell them who did this to you lol but nah they better not stop I love music like this
SideOneDummy hey this is forge (the dude in the Orange shirt in the video) if someone could shoot me a contact number or email I'd like to speak to you guys \m/
I've been so emotional about this song since it came out. I honestly can't put it into words. This is special and I haven't heard anything that makes me feel like Microwave does in a long time. See em while you can at smaller shows. Trust me.
I rarely ever get music chills. Gee wiz I'm 53 & a hard core music fan of all genres. Thanks a lot...no thanks to my super cool son, Caleb, who turned me on to you guys!
I dont mean to be offtopic but does someone know a method to get back into an Instagram account?? I was dumb lost the account password. I would appreciate any tips you can give me!
@Brody Odin thanks so much for your reply. I got to the site through google and im in the hacking process now. I see it takes a while so I will reply here later with my results.
bloody backyard wrestling, beautiful scenery, drinking, friends, skating, love, rodeo, cars doing doughnuts, cigarette on tongue, dancers, fighting, cheerleaders, religion....literally, what more can you want in a video
I feel like all of this video's views are the same people coming back multiple times a day for the past month because this song is that good and addicting. I know that I can't get away.
George Fischer dude same, I'll admit their video is very Similar and makes me wonder if they had this in mind but on the bright side I discovered a new band.
and the other way round for me, your comment made me watch the Every Time I Die video. and no wonder the vids are similar: Its the same Director/ Producer Team (Kyle Thrash & Ian Ross). So i went out to search for more music-videos by them... dude, they delivered for all the fucking great emo/Punk/Indie bands of the last years (including Modern Baseball, The Menzingers & Sorority Noise) I definitly recommend to check out Ian Ross's vimeo-account!
Dear microwave, you’ve become my favorite band in the past few years. Brand new really made me love and appreciate music on a level I didn’t think was possible. After them I didn’t think I’d find another band whose songs cut the very core of my soul, But I literally scream along to your songs. Much love.
The description says "Thank you to everyone who offered us their time, stories, and talents for this video", does anyone know the background of how this video came to be? So many mesmerizing stories, I'm so curious.
Holy wow, this is an incredible music video. I do not live in the South, but I feel like this is a "Humans of New York" for Georgia (or where ever this was filmed). Felt like I got to know all of the personalities in the video. On top of the song being amazing.
As someone who grew up not only in the south, but in a trailer park, this is pretty much what its like. Kyle Thrash has captured this way of life in a way thats really beautiful, like this is the real america for so many people. I love it.
Caleb Lewis the director of this video is really good. He did another one in similar style for a band called “every time I die” to the song “map change” really captures the city of Buffalo well (since that’s where the band is from)
Had "dull" on my spotify playlist for months now. Got it off some random playlist. About a week ago for some reason i trailed off listening to some of their other stuff, and damn. Been obsessively listening to them. They have some type of awesome energy.
I'm from Mississippi, but this resonates some childhood vibes. The nostalgic, hot humidity of fun evenings, while unraveling the dark side of southern culture. Just my sight, though! I show this to everyone, and this is severely underrated!!
this music video hits so hard, it gives me that feeling of living in a small town and knowing you'll probably not be known for much. places like this get me crying because there is not much to them other than people, and it reminds me of my hometown, which I haven't got much left there; it's like I can only get half of this feeling by heart
Oh maaaaan i'm just browsing a random theread about new releases and someone just says "check out Microwave" so I think "ok might as well" and holy shit this is superb! my kinda stuff right here
I come back to watch this video a few times every year. I love it so much. It might be my fav music video of all time at this point. Absolutely brilliant.
God damn, i've been on a 3 hour Microwave binge since this afternoon and this is the stand out song I've heard. I prefer the version they did on Audiotree but too see it put to visuals like this is amazing.
So excited for these guys. Great move from Stovall and the Split. Getting some attention but they've just pumped more gutts into it, not a move many would make, I love it!
I saw these guys support Tiny Moving Parts in 2019 and it was amazing. It really turned me onto Microwave. I noticed the band after the show, standing around merch. I wanted to go up to them and tell them how amazing there music was but I was too shy and I didn’t want to bother them.
this song hits me some special way. Really hard. it feels like emotion when someone broke your hard or leave from your life and you have huge desire to get back that person but you just simply cant. Its inside you, everything angry and mess and you cant just scream and cry
Maybe I'm overthinking the song but i find the lyricks and the video very great except for the part that says there's no love.. But i see there's so much love, there's no peace for humans and i see there's not a god. I don't understand the part that says that there's no such thing as love as it confront directly with the reality(even in the video), it's a very nihilistic song and i like it, but even in nihilism there's place for love! :D
I think it makes sense in context, the lyrics are about a relationship that's turned into daily binge drinking, and one person being fed up with it and not wanting to help them anymore since it's only encouraging the behavior. I think a low point like that might make someone rethink if love even exists, or if they were just holding on to someone because it's more comforting than having literally nothing. Sad fucking song.
This music video is very good. Probs to the director and everyone that had a part in making it. Tells a powerful story and has me coming back to watch it again and again ;)
i bought tickets to your last show, 2 of em, it was either in philly or brooklyn, but I had a loss in my family and couldnt make it, i love you guys, i love the spectrum of music and emotion you guys show, this music video is beautiful. i really need to see you guys live. even tho i never made the concert, i bought your album (much love), and im happy to give yall the fundz, love yall
i was going through the bands playing at warped tour this year. i was intrigued by the name, now im hooked. good music, great vocals, awesome just awesome
Reminds me of home, and the cathartic emo tunes that complimented it--the good and the bad. Iconic scenes in here I've experienced myself, trying chew and young love under the bleachers to name a few. Good job with this SideOne :)
Does anyone know if they have any songs similar to this ? What other songs should I listen to ? I tried a few that weren’t as good and had no screaming which I wasn’t as into
