The fact that they not only put so much work into their music, but also touring and making music videos all on their own without a record label really shows you how much Men I Trust cares about their fans and the music they create. They will be in the history books.
"Tree Among Shrubs" by Men I Trust is about introspection and hidden personal pain that others might not see. It uses metaphors like "tree among shrubs" to symbolize the struggle to stand out and be understood despite confusion or surroundings. The song explores how past suffering shapes one’s strength and identity, and how this pain and strength are not always recognized by others.
There’s an interview with Chester from Linkin Park where he mentions his depression, and the interviewer laughs in disbelief. As if someone of his caliber couldn’t have issues. The strongest souls actually deal with the biggest demons
That's the wonderful mystique of Men I Trust. There's an enriching, enlivening, elevating quality to all of their music. Doesn't matter what I listen to in their catalog, I always feel deeply rewarded thereafter!
"the pain to match your strength" it's the admiration you have for people you love once you learn how they've overcome struggle that makes this line so resonant
You make no sound As folks gather 'round Like shadow hounds Eyes seem unsound As folks gather 'round And please you aloud And I now believe that no one asked About your secret past The pain to match your strength And I now believe that no one thought You had a lonely past The pain and strengths so vast From mellow seas To houses on wheels To slabs in West lands Hand in hand From yellow bills To slabs in West lands Like bones in your hands But I see a tree that's standing high among the shrubs So only one hand may rest its palm upon my cheeks The only one that I'll need To know why no one asked About your secret past The pain to match your strength And I now believe that no one thought You had a lonely past And pain to match your vein When it rains
these guys are so underrated. this feels like waking up and taking a walk during dusk in the fall but a day after a big storm passed, with a piping hot cup of coffee in ur hand and it fills u up with sm happiness and comfort. i love this song sm.
Starting a new phase in my life, I can't handle listening to the music I once loved so much. I'm glad I found this after being done with what is now my past, good music for the new days ahead.
I actually feel the same. I used to be into a lot heavier stuff but this does it better for me nowadays. I still listen to heavy music every now and then though. What kind of music were you into if you don't mind us asking?
loved seeing you guys on this tour; the level of happiness on-stage was palpable. they have reached what many artists strive for, few achieve, and fewer still manage to hold on to; being happy with who you are and the content you create.
My husband totally cried with when we saw them live a couples of years back. He’s NOT the crying type. So yeah, it’s an experience! She’s an experience! Both mesmerized.
I wonder if kids my age(16) listens to this type of music, and I highly suggest that they should because there's something about Men I Trust that gives this feeling of inner peace and escape from the cruel reality once you've listened to their songs.

Recently me and this one girl who i had been talking to since last year ended things. It mainly wasnt working out bc we didnt live close but we really loved each other a lot, then like a week after all that my mom wanted to go to some church event and she brought me and it ended up being at where she lived. My heart dropped when i realized where we were and i felt like i would see her at the church bc it was literally in her neighborhood and she would go to church. So then when i entered the church i was super panicky but then realized she wasnt there, i then felt way more calm about it all and after we left the church it was like 11 PM and we went to my moms friends house and while we were driving through the city i was listening to this song while looking outside and thinking of her. So whenever i hear this song i think of that night :) Sorry if this was a lot to read but to whoever read this i hope you have a great day
this song makes me feel sad & happy at the same time, why? IDK!. It makes me feel the hug of a mother, the kiss of a lover, & when the sun is over.....
Best song on the album, I was fortunate enough to see you guys pull this one out live at the el rey theatre, there were so many chills and tears. Love you guys and this cozy song ♥
I saw them at the Fort Worth, Austin, and Brooklyn shows and it is so cool and touching to see how they made videos out of their time on the road. Even brought a tear to my eye. Can't wait to see them again.
I just got to tell you guys that I'm so grateful for your music, it had changed my life since I heard for the first time, love you guy's, one of my favorite bands
I just watched their concert a couple days ago, and trust me it's the best day of my life, MIT is so underrated and pardon me you guys are f*kin amazing!!
this has been my favourite song for two years, ever since the first time i heard it, during a solo trip to europe. it still is. it evokes a kind of emotion i had never felt before in my life... comfort, warmth, loneliness, all at the same time...
This is the reason I love indie. I think little to nobody in this genre is in it for the money, Mac Demarco, Yot Club, Men I Trust, Hers, The Symposium, Alvvays. NOBODY is. “It’s just a bonus if you’re lucky” We’re all just here for the vibes. Practically modern day hippies and I’m all for it.
I happened to find this song cause someone shared it on their Instagram story and wow. I am so happy I checked it out. I've been playing it nonstop for hours now and I love it. Makes me feel so calm and happy.
this song feels like eating and talking with a big group of friends you love, no drama, screens, all love and human connection. so healing and comforting. I feel warmth from this song.
to hear this song is a cathartic moment to me, along that matching lyrics and my subconscious have decided that the span of how much i love this song/band will never cease

Kinda like "I hope to be around". The song encapsulates what it's like to be on the streets but almost invisible to the general public

I agree with y’all
this makes me feel warm cozy and happy, there's something so healing about their music. i love this band so much
Their music is 100% positive vibes
Took the word right out of my mouth
Healing is the word to go!
Yes! Been helping me heal since I found them a year ago
Because of love: The love they've got between each other as friends & the love for the music.
I've listened to this song 50 times now. There is something so special about it.
Everything is special in this song ✨

@@freethinker79 ikr! is so beautiful
This song is Cat Stevens’s “foreigner suite”
same here! Its just beautiful, i cant explain it! cant help but replay it again! plus it almost loops perfectly
This song will be definitely part of the soundtrack of this long, dark and cold winter ahead of us
Jheez guys, sounds like the fear mongering really did a number on you. Maybe switch of your screens once in a while and enjoy life👍
@@crazyadventure7 did something like it happen?
Meow
Summer vibes too ❤
my heart melts when Emma smiles into the camera
my heart melts when jesse cries into the camera
I dont know what to make of this sentence.. lol @@horridstank3330
This music only gives me peace and more reasons to be alive. One of the most valuable bands since the 80s.
Been listening this nonstop on Spotify. I'm obsessed with their album ❤️
Honestly
Can't get enough of it! Going to buy the album ASAP
Literally from start to finish, I don't skip a jam.
Dream pop juga teh
"the pain to match your strength" it's the admiration you have for people you love once you learn how they've overcome struggle that makes this line so resonant
You make no sound
As folks gather 'round
Like shadow hounds
Eyes seem unsound
As folks gather 'round
And please you aloud
And I now believe that no one asked
About your secret past
The pain to match your strength
And I now believe that no one thought
You had a lonely past
The pain and strengths so vast
From mellow seas
To houses on wheels
To slabs in West lands
Hand in hand
From yellow bills
To slabs in West lands
Like bones in your hands
But I see a tree that's standing high among the shrubs
So only one hand may rest its palm upon my cheeks
The only one that I'll need
To know why no one asked
About your secret past
The pain to match your strength
And I now believe that no one thought
You had a lonely past
And pain to match your vein
When it rains
blessing people exist with this depth and creativity, much needed in this weird covid world
Among usss

Okay weirdo
this has been my favourite song ever since it was released. I’m so glad I found and got into this band

But what about all the good music you listened to before?!!!
@@tangyorange6509 It's good, but I'm very sensitive, it makes me feel heartbroken and even cry. Gotta move on.

Very well said. I agree.
I wish people would stop referring to art as “content”. Otherwise I agree.
YES! You can tell they're loving every minute of it. Good for them. :)
@@Special_Agent_NSB true, there’s a clear distinction between any content that exists, and art.
This song is such a gem
I like this band. They have a very unique sound.
its like if windows96 had lyrics

This band is everything.
This song touched that part of my soul that haven't been touched for so long. It's a great feeling.

bro wtf this song is crazy good
This is the best song the world has ever witnessed
Ths band sounds very organic to me
I love you, Men I Trust! From Philippines. 🇵🇭🌷
Oncle zazz 때부터 좋아했는데 계속 꾸준히 곡작업 해줘서 너무 고마운 밴드. 덕분에 힘든 시기에 위로를 많이 받았어요. 노래를 듣고 있으면 뭔가 어린시절의 좋았던 기억들이 떠올라서 묘하게 안정되는 느낌이예요. 코로나 끝나면 꼭 한국에도 와주세요... ㅠ
❤
She has an angelical voice
Man, I must have heard this song three dozen times by now. This is the time it makes me cry out of nowhere. I can't imagine a more soothing sound
It reminds me of how grateful it is to be born in 2003 and grew up with Kodak to capture every sweet moment.
