Modern Baseball - The Thrash Particle (Live Acoustic)

[mgmcgregorross]

Bren. I hope you’re doing well. I miss your voice. I come back every so often to remind myself of a simpler time in my life. Thank you and modern baseball for being there for me in my time of need.

[DavidSedano]

This is what every breakup song ever written wanted to sound like

[trekruger]

This guy remembers why he wrote the song every time he sings one

[keanucarmean]

“When I’m too drunk to lie and too drugged to be alone” one of the best lyrics created

[bunkbeds]

Fuck, Lukens, I hope you found peace man. You saved so many people from feeling alone in their emotions, captured such a powerful feeling of community among so many lost souls, and probably pulled some people back from the brink of giving up entirely.

Yes, every member of MOBO is special, they're extremely talented and wonderful individuals. But all of us, and this seems to be bizarrely true across most fans, see something special in Lukens. He isn't one of us, he's all of us, and I hope he knows how it feels to have somebody speak to a part of your soul that you didn't know existed.

I fucking love this man, and I hope with every fiber of my being that he is on the path to recovery. Good luck man ❤️

[TheFitchBuckHQ]

I think this is one of the best songs if not the best that they have ever recorded.

[meowmeow]

2023 and Modern Baseball is still one of my favorite bands

[squidskid]

If you think you’re the only one watching this everyday, join the club.

[garrettadamo]

have you ever been so distracted by what's going around you that you couldn't appreciate what resonates with you

[illneas]

I'm late for the party but it's ok

[TwinkieCraft]

yeah, its currently 4:18 AM and just maybe you're also staying up late listening to all the acoustic sessions of MOBO. It's hard to explain to people how much this band means to me, and maybe its just me but ever since they split, every song just hits harder and harder. There is no other band that has ever impacted me the way these guys did. They will forever be my all time favorite band. Something that hits me even harder is that the last line from Holy Ghost, their last album, is "even if you cant see it now, we're proud of what's to come, and you" We miss you MOBO

[percinnawok]

this is the most beautiful song modern baseball has ever made

[jamesrush]

Does anyone know if Brendan is doing any better these days? Hope he's beating his demons he sure helped me fight mine

[pleasedontknowmeirl]

how the hell y'all gonna give me nostalgia for something that never happened to me

[sverkho]

i was singing this song when i met my best friend on a game called dayz. he said he didn't shoot me specifically because i was singing my heart out in game chat. we started a group that accumulated 15-20 people. those were some of the best days of my life. thanks mobo

[AngelGonzalez-qnpr]

Didn't watch your ex’s set. I just left and thought about you;
like when your teeth graze those lips, when you begin to smile.
Later, you took my hand. You lead us to the doorway,
but you let go of me once you saw all your friends.

And I've known you forever. At least that's what I tell Jake,
when I'm too drunk to walk home, when your brother's away.
You suggested I write a song about the first time we met,
but I can't seem to remember where or when.

Couldn't watch your ex's set. Instead I wrote this song about you.
Thought, "would you show your kids, if you found the time was right?"
You'd tell them where and when. You never thought I'd leave the east coast.
We were young and full of sin. And I too dumb to understand.

Yet I've loved you forever. At least that's what I tell Holt,
when I'm too drunk to lie, too drugged to be alone.
You suggested I write a song about the first time we met,
well I don't wanna remember there or then.

So, is this the hook you wanted?
Is it stuck inside your head?
Can you sing it with your friends, or alone?
So, am I what you needed?
Say you love me to my face,
grin and gossip, walk away and then go...

"So is this the hook you wanted?
To sing about me to my friends?
Well you're just stuck inside your head, all alone.
Oh, you were all I needed.
Said I loved you to your face,
but you just laughed and walked away."

[Spitooth]

I cry at the nostalgia I feel when listening to Modern Baseball.

[Oaksoh]

Am I the only one wondering who was lucky enough to have MoBo sing in their kitchen?

[danmcnamara]

So much emotion in this song, Bren genuinely looks and sounds like he’s about to cry in this song. One of the best songs ever written.

[Oppozision]

It’s 5am on a Thursday morning and I haven’t slept. I’m struggling again. I hope anyone who reads this finds peace and finds hope. Modern baseball has always been that hope for me. They’re tattooed on my left thigh and will forever be a reminder to think deeper than what is on the surface. To remember life is bigger than what’s on the surface. I will watch this video for the thousandth time knowing I can find peace with myself.
