The Front Bottoms - Flying Model Rockets 

all his songs sound similar, but in a good way

i love how his voice has this tinge of sass

I’ve only known this band for a few days and they already mean a whole lot to me. I love finding music with genuine emotion like this.

Heard them first when I was 16 I turned 22 today and still bumping

I've been trying to figure out what this song means for a while now It starts out as kids in their home neighborhood, doing something innocent like flying model planes. His brother's (seemingly older) friend tells him that it's okay for love to hurt and he just doesn't understand yet. It sounds like this friend is being abused by someone they love. The singer grows up and learns that the world is a lot more complicated and painful than flying model planes. Someone else tries to escape their dysfunctional upbringing by moving to out west, but the singer is jaded and thinks their problems will just follow them to California because it's not something wrong with the east coast but with the person. But he can't provide a better solution and wonders if he could have stopped things from turning out so badly or if that's just how life is. I'm not sure about the phone call, but I think it might represent the brother's friend or someone like them trying to reach out for help because part of them knows love isn't supposed to hurt them like this, but they can't find the words. This character might be the same one who runs to California when they are older. By the end of the song, the singer has experienced destructive love and misses when things were simpler.

this band is so amazing. i can listen to their album all day

The first time I listened to TFB was when I brought "Rose" from a record shop because I recalled the name, I have no regrets and am so glad I did, i love this band so much. I no longer have that CD I gave it to my friend and miss it but it made her happy so it works out

been listening since i was 12, now i’m 17 n honestly still a mood

God I love The Front Bottoms so much

Please fall asleep so i can take pictures of you and hang them in my room so when i wake i'll feel like yeah everythings alright. I love you guysss so much

There's nothing in California that you could not learn to hate here.

I love the part when it goes like "Flying model rockets own the sky in the backyard next to mine. I get these strange phone calls at night with no one on the other side. My brothers' friend explains to me with breathless words, bloody knees. It's a black-eyed trust. Respect with pain. a love that I'll learn when I've been through the same. When I've been through the same. When I've been through the same. And there's nothing in California that you could not learn to hate here. Questions will all still be waiting for you. Answers will only be less clear. It's hard to say what I would do if I was back a year or two. Look at our plans try to understand what could've happened to all of them. To all of them. Oh, to all of them. Flying model rockets own the sky in the backyard next to mine I get these strange phone calls at night with no one on the other side. My brothers' friend explains to me, with breathless words, bloody knees. It's a black-eyed trust. Respect my pain. A love that I'll learn when I've been through the same. When I've been through the same. When I have been through the same. Ohhhhhh, ohhhhhh, ohhhh. Ohhhhhh, ohhhhhh, ohhhhhhh. Ohhh-Ohhh aoohhhhhh."

This song means an awful lot to me, heard it early 2015 and it's stuck with me ever since. Reminds me of what I've lost but also makes me grateful for where I am now.

Don't let this song die.

the rose ep is honestly still my favorite to this day. years after discovering tfb and i still love every track on here. theyre just so comforting to me in a weird way

I dont know if theres a better song that this written in the past 5 years.

there's something soo soothing about this song, it starts off sweet and slow, makes me feel like im just chilling in my bedroom alone, maybe smoking, while my led room lights are on, color purple. Been listening to The front bottoms for like 3 years more or less, they never fail to calm me down and make me feel at home

it’s been years and i still have no idea what this song is about but i still love it

Idk why TFB don't have more followers. They deserve more recognition.

This song puts all of the horrible memories i have to a sounftrack and i love that.

i dont like having a "favorite song" because i feel like 1 isn't enough, but if i had to choose, i think it'd certainly be this one.

#bestband can't defeat it

this band helps me get through so much. they let me know that life is fucked up for everyone and we're all just trying to get through it.
