This album I discovered alongside a friend of mine. We listen to it constantly. Luckily, this isn't a sappy story or anything, cause he's still alive and well. It's just amazing how this album started a really great thing we do, where about once a month, we spend an entire day just showing one another all the great new music we've discovered. Good Kid just has a special place in my heart as one of the albums that started all of this. Music is such an important part of my life, and this album is an important part of music.
I know I'm late, but I just gotta say this - I'm so used to super sad stories that this was just awesome. Like, no sad stuff, just "yeah we do this and its cool". Love that

Me and my friend have been fans ever since we first heard Nomu, and I'm so happy you guys made this. Ive never been disappointed with anything you've put out and I'm not with this. Its fucking awesome.
The thing with Good Kid is that just of their songs sound fun, making it easy to write them off as not serious. Yet the upbeat sound of the music belies a level of depth and sophistication just below the surface that is rarely seen in such young musicians. Faster brought me to tears today as I reflected on the meaning of the words. Of course, I could be totally off, but I understand it as a beautifully tragic song about growing older. The first part of both verses are similar, reflecting the cyclical and repetitive nature of time- days, weeks, months, and-in this case- years. The words of the second verse are a little confused, reflecting the deterioration of mind and memory as years pass. Finally, the chorus is a promise, perhaps futile: "I won't forget." Wherever we are going, we will go together. I promise that I won't forget you. I won't forget us. My grandfather passed away this year. He had dementia. He would forget what we were talking about and he would forget what he had for breakfast, but I'm eternally grateful that he never forgot me. It reminds me to savor every moment together with those I love and to make memories worth treasuring. We're not promised anything in this world- even those memories can be taken from us.
I actually recently purchased the bands lyric book and the song is actually about the fast and furious franchise, but I can defiately see where this interpretation comes from. Quite profound UwU
@@skyhighflying1525 yo bro if u have the lyric book can u please explain to me wtf pox and atlas are talking about??? like the lyrics and general message of the song just dont make sense to me at all. most of their other songs u can understand what it's about, like tell me you know and nomu are about bad break ups, aloe lite seems to be about a toxic relationship, down with the king is about kirby, etc.
Lol I just assumed y’all would make music in year long intervals since that’s how long it took between witches and atlas but hoo boy am I glad to be wrong
@@alexgaffikin1641 I was referring to the date of the comment, although admittedly i might have misunderstood what his reply meant, i just thought it meant "it's been a year since i commented this" so i replied with "it's been 3 years since you commented it" but i guess i was wrong lol
"Tell me You Know" feels like a song that I would listen during Summer while I see my crush with another guy and I already accepted that she's actually happy with him..oof..
I couldn't tell ya how many times I've listened to this album.. I keep it on loop while doing homework or playing games, these songs just never get old
A friend of mine showed me Alchemist, and I loved it. I went and looked up the EP, and every song is just great! I just love how energetic each song is, and their lyrics are so catchy! The guitars and bass and the drums are amazing, and the vocals are great! This has become one of my favorite EP’s and I’m really glad my friend showed me this band.
I was in class and decided to open youtube because my class was bored so this came up in my recommendations and it was THE BEST SHIT I FOUND now it's one of my favorite albums. I don't know why they waited so long to recommend it. Now this will make my days happy.
This kept getting recommended to me and I kept putting off watching it. I'm really glad I finally did, Nomu is one of my favorite songs I've ever heard. And even the ones that don't speak to me personally really give me a lot of nostalgia for the kind of music I grew up listening to.
Found Nomu so very long ago and each single that has come out has been so great. I'm so stoked on getting a full album, keep up the good stuff, not a single bad song in the bunch!
I'm a guy from Brazil, I discovered this album because of the youtube recommendations, usually I don't click and I'm still in my bubble, but this time I thought why not? And bro, what a good decision, I'm in love with this band's songs. Even I don't understand almost any word of the lyrics (I don't speak English) I can see the affection they had when they made them. At the moment this is my favorite band (I know a few bands hahah) But seriously, you guys have a lot to grow, it's just a matter of time before you guys gain a huge community. Then when that happens, I can say that I'm here before I get famous lol Edit: I don't know why, but every time I try to answer people here, something happens and the bot deletes my comment, I'm not saying anything wrong. But answering the guys right here, I'm very happy to see that I'm not the only Brazilian who likes this band.
Que coincidência, the same here Bem aleatório. Tipo, 3 anos dps do vídeo ser lançado, o RUclips recomenda pra (provavelmente mais que) dois caras no Brasil. (that's random. Like, three years after the video was released, youtube recommends it to (probably more than) two people in Brazil.)
@@bendingmarlin5461 Dois não amigo, três. Do nada o RUclips recomendou essa obra de arte ao público brasileiro... E eu posso dizer que adorei ter descoberto essa banda.
Honestly all the songs are hella jams. Like a lot of the time there’s a few songs in albums I don’t like but good kid always is hitting me with the quality bops.
This band feels like the best summer you had with your friends,it reminds you your best times,but you knowing them those are just memories that fades away gives you a bitter sweet taste in your mouth,this is exactly what this group is about, this is why I love them
High school for me was shit, those memories made it better though. Still like to hold on to the thoughts of campfires and tomfuckery we used to get up to before everyone went to college.
Btw these are the best 2 albums I've ever heard. No joke. I started working at tesla as a temp, and these ep's always energized me, and now I've been a regular employee for a year. All songs are bangers. No other artist has done this since early falling in reverse. I know you probably will never see this, but thank you! I'll keep listening to these classics as I venture into tattoos. (Of course, your music will be blasting on my future shop. :)
I'm very glad I found this band. I became a rock fan this year and out of all bands I know, this is my favourite for sure. There's no doubt this music makes many people happy, I hope you'll keep working on this. Can't wait to hear more!
this band has become my favorite so quickly that I feel like I got whiplash. Both this and good kid two are my top two eps/albums, are just so amazingly produced, written, and delivered to just create a listening experience that is so insanely surreal. I have been isolated for even more time this summer due to living far away from people and not having many friends even before that, and these two albums are what got me through that. Thank you.
Dont get me wrong, everything in this ep is incredible, but no song in this ep will live up to witches, the instrumentals are great, your voice blends so perfectly with it, and rythm is so easy to follow. Keep up the good work man, love your songs.
I love the energy of this band. It's really changed up my streak of down and depressing music. This stuff just makes me want to dance. Also every song is an absolute banger.
Listening to this bring me back to the good Times when i and my cousin were going outside to skate and just chill together. Thanks guys, keep it going!
I'm not gonna lie, I'd literally do anything for C-19 to be over AND if given the time and place, go to a Good Kid concert. UGH! So damn good! I've never actually loved all the songs of a single album before. Also, I really love the cover art ❤ I draw nothing but abstract. Never stop guys!
I honestly wasn’t sure what I was expecting when I saw the cover but somehow I feel like every one of my expectations have been met and then some. Absolute banger man
Please someone help me, it's been 6 months since i discovered this EP and Good Kid, since then this always plays when i put a random playlist, i like the songs but it's like the EP it's been chasing me, please i need help, am scared, this is not a joke
I only discovered you guys 4 days ago yet this music has helped me get through months worth of troubles. I finally feel content for once. Thank you so much. I wish you all luck on whatever journey you decide to take.
I had no idea bpth the boys like Good Kid but im not surprised in the slightest theyd like them too. Wilburs always had great music taste. Hes how i found Radiator Hospital
Had Nomu show up on my recommended, listened to it and loved it, and now you guys are my goto morning music to just get myself feeling good. Tell me you know was fucking fire. So glad for that recommended. You guys are spectacular!
Seems the algorithm has blessed this. Last time I heard the full album was a year ago and thought that this band is extremely underrated and deserved more views. Glad to see you guys on tour and getting millions of views.
youtube really has gotten bad at timing the recommendations and waiting way too long to show me bangers >:( amazing album dude I will now binge it for the next week or 2
Man... i discovered your music when i was starting college back then, and it was one of my hype music everytime i have a bad day from the commute, thanks for yalls music 🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲
I found good kid a while back on Spotify, I was making a playlist and alchemist came up, I gave it a listen and was instantly hooked, a bit later I looked up the rest of your music and honestly all the songs are bangers, the energetic guitar rifts and chords, the 180 tempo is perfect for my runs, where 180 tempo is super important, you’re definitely my favorite band and I’m so glad Spotify recommended you guys to me!
Damn somebody tell me why this took 2 years to get recommended to me, this fucking bangs
it was 3 years for me

00:00 Nomu
Four eyes entwined draw four separate lines
And none of them point to you
A tangled mess of knots, I confess
But the intent was there
I swear we set out sights on something that we thought was true
So now we sit and stare across a surface spanning the whole state
Two feet between, and miles apart
No words to speak, been here a week and still we haven't got a clue
It falls apart, there's not a heart to beat there
It falls apart if there's not a heart to have
It falls apart, there's not a heart to beat there
It falls apart if there's not a heart to have
Each word a world all of its own
Each thought rendered only in groans
The syntax skips, semantics slip
And what was left a growing cleft of language lost, tokens unknown
Then I guess we slipped right through
And lost all meaning on the way
We ended up a tiny piece
Of every part of every heart of every stone of every grave
It falls apart, there's not a heart to beat there
It falls apart if there's not a heart to have
It falls apart, there's not a heart to beat there
It falls apart if there's not a heart to have
A tangled mess of knots, I confess
But the intent was there
I swear we set out sights on something that we thought was true
It falls apart, there's not a heart to beat there
It falls apart if there's not a heart to have
It falls apart, there's not a heart to beat there
It falls apart if there's not a heart to have
If there's not a heart to have

It falls apart if there's not a heart to have
It falls apart, there's not a heart to beat there
It falls apart if there's not a heart to have
02:46 Tell Me You Know
Well I lost my phone maybe three years back
And I don't have an address, it's a matter of fact
But I guess you tried to drop me a line
Yeah I signed out and I unsubscribed
Then I cut the cord, now I'm not online
But I'll be fine, yeah I guess that I'll get by
I shaved my head and I grew out a beard
Now I only wear plaid, I always look austere
I'm moving to LA, I'm writing a screenplay
But it's not about you or what we were
It's about a new girl, you've never met her
She's just got your name
And she looks exactly the same
Tell tell tell tell tell tell me you know
Tell me it's okay
That I dropped right off the map
And I'm falling every day
Tell tell tell tell tell tell me you know
Tell me it's okay
'Cause you'll find me anyway
Yeah if you see me walking by
Well I guarantee it's some other guy
'Cause I'm not there
I'm always elsewhere
I changed my name, I had it approved
They wrote it down, you won't see it soon
I guess you'll see there's not much to me
I guess of me there's not much to see
Tell tell tell tell tell tell me you know
Tell me it's okay
That I dropped right off the map
And I'm falling every day
Tell tell tell tell tell tell me you know
Tell me it's okay
'Cause you'll find me anyway
And know you'll see
That there's not much left of me
Well once a year I'll cross your path
I'll hurry away, you'll stifle a laugh
It's not that I'm scared, you just caught me unaware
Well I know it's been a couple of years
But still, I'm surprised we ended up here
We'll talk a bit to see what we've lost
You'll stop when you see you're a bit better off
Tell tell tell tell tell tell me you know
Tell me it's okay
That I dropped right off the map
And I'm falling every day
Tell tell tell tell tell tell me you know
Tell me it's okay
'Cause you'll find me anyway

Give it up
Give it up
Give it away
While you were barely alive as you learnt that day
Cut us so much
Hardly remained
Well you knew that there was still a way
Cry and cave in, try anyway
Well you got you got him back, but then you had to pay
Stand up
Push us
Still to this day
You knew that there was still a way
This is your only plan, oh now
This is your only... plan
This is your only plan, oh now
This is yours
And that's fine
It's all you've ever known
A single state of mind
But you won't ever let it go
When you had the answer
And you were there alone
You left the door unopened
When you knew that you weren't one more
Give it up
Give it up
Give it away
Well you were barely aware you learned that day
Cut so much
Hardly remained
Well you knew that there was still a way
This is your only plan, oh now
This is your only... plan
This is your only plan, oh now
This is yours
And you're right
You force it to yield
You'll forge it to the lines
You let your callous be your shield
And everyone will say
That it all was finished years ago
But you will stay
And you won't ever let it go
When you had the answer
And you were there alone
You left the door unopened
When you knew that weren't one more
Then again you found the answer
Then you were there alone
You left the door unopened
When you knew that you weren't one more
When you had the answer
And you were there alone
You left the door unopened
When you knew that weren't one more
Then again you found the answer

A narrative waste of patches and light
We grew up in the suburbs then we cut all our ties
Now just take a look at this through Gwyllion eyes
You're wrong my friend, the road, it bends a bit to the right
A couple more miles and I know we'll arrive
These rolling hills and valleys, well they'll eat you alive
Now the peat will grab our feet to halt the incline
A little bit more lest we waste our whole lives
We got here in the dark
We took the long way down
Just to find an inn somewhere inside this ancient town
We talked, we talked about it all night
We thought, we thought we'd make it alive
We talked, we talked about it all night
We thought, we thought we'd make it alive
We talked, we talked about it all night
Just to throw the plan out at the first light
We thought, we thought we'd make it alive
Or at least we'd give it an honest try
A narrative waste of patches and light
We grew up in the suburbs then we cut all our ties
Now just take a look at this through Gwyllion eyes
You're wrong my friend, the road, it bends a bit to the right
These stones were left here at the beginning of days
And each step that was taken wore a little away
That in of itself, well it was something to say
A conversation that could last the end of the day
We got here in the dark
We took the long way down
Just to find an inn somewhere inside this ancient town
We talked, we talked about it all night

The road evened out by the snow
Evened out by-
I can feel
I know you feel it too
A little flicker on the path
We steer
A set of flashing lights
We'll go faster and faster
This time, my mind
It won't forget
This time, my mind
We're not there yet
This time
It goes faster and faster
This time, my mind
It won't forget
This time, my mind
We're not there yet
This time
It goes faster and faster
Faster and faster, dear
The road's still moving backwards
Now it looks so clear
The snow evened out by the road
Evened out by-
I can still call the twists and turns
But it feels so straight
Head little farther till the end
We'll go faster and faster
This time, my mind
It won't forget
This time, my mind
We're not there yet
This time
It goes faster and faster
This time, my mind
It won't forget
This time, my mind
We're not there yet
This time
It goes faster and faster
This time, my mind
It won't forget
This time, my mind
We're not there yet
This time, my mind
It won't forget
This time
It goes faster
This time, my mind
It won't forget
This time, my mind
We're not there yet
This time, my mind
It won't forget
This time
It goes faster and faster

Baby if you don't stand for something
How can you ever stand at all
Baby if you’re built on sand
You'll be swept back by the fall
Baby if you don't stand for something
How could you ever hope to
Hold the weight of everything you hold
Maybe if you built your house on sand
You could burrow the deeper
Or maybe it would cave on you alone
I swear I did I tried
I swear I did
A thousand times to let it lie
A thousand times to let it lie
I swear I did I tried
I swear I did
A thousand times to let it lie
A thousand times to let it lie
Baby if you don't stand for something
How could you ever hope to
Hold the weight of everything you hold
Maybe if you show them all your hand
You could hide in the creases
Or maybe you could take it back and fold
You said it was all in the aether
Each thought that you said you could feed her
She said she was nothing but eager
Then you said
She said that you couldn't believe her
Each thought that you said you could feed her
She said it was all just to lead her then
You said you said you said you said you said-
I swear I did, I tried
I swear I did
A thousand times to let it lie
A thousand times to let it lie
I swear I did, I tried
I swear I did
A thousand times to let it lie
A thousand times to let it lie
I heard that you weren't sure
Then I called it off again
I heard that you weren't sure
Then I called it off again

You're a hero, brother
Just commenting so that I can find this again.
Thanks
I can't believe stuff like this can be swept under the radar only to come back years later.
This is great music. I love it and so do my friends.
I really wish that this was recommended to me earlier, nomu is amazing.
oh hell no, not you again
Not you again...
I'm glad I'm not the only one that keeps getting surprised when they are in the comments
OMG THIS IS HOW IVE BEEN FEELING
I love you
Me and my friend have been fans ever since we first heard Nomu, and I'm so happy you guys made this. Ive never been disappointed with anything you've put out and I'm not with this. Its fucking awesome.
Hope you like the new sttuff :)
@@GoodKidband :)
@@arstotzka6520 Glory to Arstotzka.
this ep is so creamy
I’d personally describe it as carbonated
DEADMAN!?
ok?
Woah, it’s THE deadman
Ayyy
Found them yesterday. Nomu and Alchemist are hands down my favourite songs ever made and this is my new favourite band
The thing with Good Kid is that just of their songs sound fun, making it easy to write them off as not serious. Yet the upbeat sound of the music belies a level of depth and sophistication just below the surface that is rarely seen in such young musicians.
Faster brought me to tears today as I reflected on the meaning of the words. Of course, I could be totally off, but I understand it as a beautifully tragic song about growing older. The first part of both verses are similar, reflecting the cyclical and repetitive nature of time- days, weeks, months, and-in this case- years. The words of the second verse are a little confused, reflecting the deterioration of mind and memory as years pass. Finally, the chorus is a promise, perhaps futile: "I won't forget." Wherever we are going, we will go together. I promise that I won't forget you. I won't forget us.
My grandfather passed away this year. He had dementia. He would forget what we were talking about and he would forget what he had for breakfast, but I'm eternally grateful that he never forgot me. It reminds me to savor every moment together with those I love and to make memories worth treasuring. We're not promised anything in this world- even those memories can be taken from us.
coulda just say that you like the songs mate
@@Binguswing1 dude - no
please never comment again
Agreed
I actually recently purchased the bands lyric book and the song is actually about the fast and furious franchise, but I can defiately see where this interpretation comes from. Quite profound UwU
@@skyhighflying1525 yo bro if u have the lyric book can u please explain to me wtf pox and atlas are talking about??? like the lyrics and general message of the song just dont make sense to me at all. most of their other songs u can understand what it's about, like tell me you know and nomu are about bad break ups, aloe lite seems to be about a toxic relationship, down with the king is about kirby, etc.
Omfg this ep is fucking immaculate. Just discovered you guys, a rabbit hole i do not regret falling into. I love your whole sound. Never ever quit. o7
Lol I just assumed y’all would make music in year long intervals since that’s how long it took between witches and atlas but hoo boy am I glad to be wrong
Oh shit lol it’s been a year damn then
@@BigRedProductions11 it's been 3 years now
@@rudymulyar ep 2 was out last year lol
@@alexgaffikin1641 I was referring to the date of the comment, although admittedly i might have misunderstood what his reply meant, i just thought it meant "it's been a year since i commented this" so i replied with "it's been 3 years since you commented it" but i guess i was wrong lol
"Tell me You Know" feels like a song that I would listen during Summer while I see my crush with another guy and I already accepted that she's actually happy with him..oof..
can relate
how did it take me 3 years to find these bangers?
Winning at the RUclips Algorithm is the true end-game grind.
same
these types of songs gives you the vibes of being proud about your accomplishments and the feelings of pure joy and journeys in your life ❤
I couldn't tell ya how many times I've listened to this album.. I keep it on loop while doing homework or playing games, these songs just never get old
A must have in any playlist
A friend of mine showed me Alchemist, and I loved it. I went and looked up the EP, and every song is just great! I just love how energetic each song is, and their lyrics are so catchy! The guitars and bass and the drums are amazing, and the vocals are great! This has become one of my favorite EP’s and I’m really glad my friend showed me this band.
That's awesome to hear! Glad your friend showed you us too!
Alchemist is also the first song I heard from him. It's my favourite
@@harambe8302 it’s really good!
i found the album while listening to one of the prodigy's songs.. glad i did. personally i prefer tell me you know
Instant. Nut.
I've been waiting, THIRSTING for this. And it does not disappoint
i got the notification from youtube about this and literally shot out of my seat thank you so much
I was in class and decided to open youtube because my class was bored so this came up in my recommendations and it was THE BEST SHIT I FOUND now it's one of my favorite albums. I don't know why they waited so long to recommend it. Now this will make my days happy.
This kept getting recommended to me and I kept putting off watching it. I'm really glad I finally did, Nomu is one of my favorite songs I've ever heard. And even the ones that don't speak to me personally really give me a lot of nostalgia for the kind of music I grew up listening to.
Found Nomu so very long ago and each single that has come out has been so great. I'm so stoked on getting a full album, keep up the good stuff, not a single bad song in the bunch!
I'm a guy from Brazil, I discovered this album because of the youtube recommendations, usually I don't click and I'm still in my bubble, but this time I thought why not? And bro, what a good decision, I'm in love with this band's songs. Even I don't understand almost any word of the lyrics (I don't speak English) I can see the affection they had when they made them. At the moment this is my favorite band (I know a few bands hahah) But seriously, you guys have a lot to grow, it's just a matter of time before you guys gain a huge community. Then when that happens, I can say that I'm here before I get famous lol
Edit: I don't know why, but every time I try to answer people here, something happens and the bot deletes my comment, I'm not saying anything wrong. But answering the guys right here, I'm very happy to see that I'm not the only Brazilian who likes this band.
Que coincidência, the same here
Bem aleatório. Tipo, 3 anos dps do vídeo ser lançado, o RUclips recomenda pra (provavelmente mais que) dois caras no Brasil.
(that's random. Like, three years after the video was released, youtube recommends it to (probably more than) two people in Brazil.)
@@bendingmarlin5461 Dois não amigo, três. Do nada o RUclips recomendou essa obra de arte ao público brasileiro... E eu posso dizer que adorei ter descoberto essa banda.
@@bendingmarlin5461 tive mais sorte, recebi a recomendação em 2020 (lá para o fim)
tava procurando um br q tbm curtiu essa banda 😳
Sameeee. I did click because of the EP cover, like why not? Then I stayed for the good music.
Honestly all the songs are hella jams. Like a lot of the time there’s a few songs in albums I don’t like but good kid always is hitting me with the quality bops.
went and looked thru my old playlists and found the ep there, havent listened to this in AGES, im glad i found it again.
this has been on my recommended for a while, I regret not clicking earlier.
This is so good
Found it through someone using this as a background music for their chill stream and damn this is so good! Literally, every song is a vibe
Are you a tommyinnit fan?
@@cherrycola7712 yeah '^^
@@marjoram5833 Nice :D
yayy me too! i swear streamers know the best music
I cant wait to see Good Kid blow up. Love the sound of this band so much.
This band feels like the best summer you had with your friends,it reminds you your best times,but you knowing them those are just memories that fades away gives you a bitter sweet taste in your mouth,this is exactly what this group is about, this is why I love them
High school for me was shit, those memories made it better though. Still like to hold on to the thoughts of campfires and tomfuckery we used to get up to before everyone went to college.
Btw these are the best 2 albums I've ever heard. No joke. I started working at tesla as a temp, and these ep's always energized me, and now I've been a regular employee for a year. All songs are bangers. No other artist has done this since early falling in reverse. I know you probably will never see this, but thank you! I'll keep listening to these classics as I venture into tattoos. (Of course, your music will be blasting on my future shop. :)
im ngl but this is by far the best indie band out there, i feel bad for anyone who haven't found these people
I'm very glad I found this band.
I became a rock fan this year and out of all bands I know, this is my favourite for sure.
There's no doubt this music makes many people happy, I hope you'll keep working on this. Can't wait to hear more!
That makes us so happy :) thank you!
I became a rock fan this year too! I only know two bands (including this one), hbu?
You guys really made something special here. I can't praise this enough, it's just really excellent music.
this band has become my favorite so quickly that I feel like I got whiplash. Both this and good kid two are my top two eps/albums, are just so amazingly produced, written, and delivered to just create a listening experience that is so insanely surreal. I have been isolated for even more time this summer due to living far away from people and not having many friends even before that, and these two albums are what got me through that. Thank you.
This feels like the sountrack of a fine "coming of age"/"teenager" movie. I love it tho
I clicked because the art looks so interesting and then HOLY COW the music is so freaking gooood!!!!
Dont get me wrong, everything in this ep is incredible, but no song in this ep will live up to witches, the instrumentals are great, your voice blends so perfectly with it, and rythm is so easy to follow. Keep up the good work man, love your songs.
im inclined to agree.
Yes !
I love the energy of this band. It's really changed up my streak of down and depressing music. This stuff just makes me want to dance. Also every song is an absolute banger.
Listening to this bring me back to the good Times when i and my cousin were going outside to skate and just chill together. Thanks guys, keep it going!
RUclips just decided to recommend this to me, this is crazy good
Congratulations on 1 million views
This is one of those EP or album videos that years after getting posted will have several million views.
Called it.
I'm not gonna lie, I'd literally do anything for C-19 to be over AND if given the time and place, go to a Good Kid concert. UGH! So damn good! I've never actually loved all the songs of a single album before. Also, I really love the cover art ❤ I draw nothing but abstract. Never stop guys!
I honestly wasn’t sure what I was expecting when I saw the cover but somehow I feel like every one of my expectations have been met and then some. Absolute banger man
just stumbled upon this during the longest new-music drought I've ever experienced. brb gonna go listen to every song this dude has ever made
Please someone help me, it's been 6 months since i discovered this EP and Good Kid, since then this always plays when i put a random playlist, i like the songs but it's like the EP it's been chasing me, please i need help, am scared, this is not a joke
I only discovered you guys 4 days ago yet this music has helped me get through months worth of troubles. I finally feel content for once. Thank you so much. I wish you all luck on whatever journey you decide to take.
i have no idea why this was recommended to me, but this fucking slaps holy
I agree with the second part. The first part was grimm not the ep tho.
The like to dislike ratio is so good. Good fanbase, you guys need to blow up soon
So happy Wilbur recommended this to Philza, now I have been introduced to this beauty of an ep
I had no idea bpth the boys like Good Kid but im not surprised in the slightest theyd like them too. Wilburs always had great music taste. Hes how i found Radiator Hospital
God this is so good I have listened to the album more than three times and also the second, this is perfection :D
EVERY SONG IS A ABSOLOUTE BANGER! GOOD MUSIC FROM GOOD KID
Yo I've been listening to this for only 2 years? I feel I've been jamming to you guys for so much longer already
I just can’t stop coming back it’s such a good album
Brazil here. I love it this. This give me a litle of nostalgia about my childhood
this is unironically the best study music idk why but yes
Tell Me You Know sounds like a song you’d hear in an early 2000’s 3D animated movie about anthropomorphic animals
I can't imagine what that would look like but the song's a banger
LMAOOOOO
wasn't really sure about clicking on this but 30 seconds in and I'm glad I did, too bad it took 3 years for me to see it
This band makes me incredibly happy
Had Nomu show up on my recommended, listened to it and loved it, and now you guys are my goto morning music to just get myself feeling good. Tell me you know was fucking fire. So glad for that recommended. You guys are spectacular!
Seems the algorithm has blessed this. Last time I heard the full album was a year ago and thought that this band is extremely underrated and deserved more views. Glad to see you guys on tour and getting millions of views.
I was so lucky to find this band while by accident, this is the best band i meet this year!
Nomu 0:00
Tell Me You Know 2:47

Your range and vocals are incredible. I also really love the design of the album, keep it up!
i'm glad i discover you guys, rn i'm listening to this daily
Just found this and I am in love. Such an underrated band!!
While I feel slightly cheated that this EP has no otamatone solo, I still appreciate the great music!
We were promised otamatone!
Have fun riding the recommended hype!! This album SLAPS
And people say rock hasn't evolved in the 21st century. Heresy!
man, its great seeing all the new comments about people finding good kid, they really are build different
I hate how this band isn't more popular, it's seriously awesome
A lots of these songs are perfect to play while the movie credit rolls down, Amazing album!
youtube really has gotten bad at timing the recommendations and waiting way too long to show me bangers >:( amazing album dude I will now binge it for the next week or 2
Well now you won't have to wait as long for the next stuff! So maybe they timed it perfectly!
@@GoodKidband we still waiting boi
God, the 2000s vibes from this EP are just TOO STRONG
Man... i discovered your music when i was starting college back then, and it was one of my hype music everytime i have a bad day from the commute, thanks for yalls music 🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲
I love this EP, so many great songs. My favorite is either Nomu or Alchemist.
Same
my friend showed me you guys and i love you guys's music :o
you guys deserve more recognition wtf
Literally the best music out there...
this is such a underrated album it needs more views and likes
Trying to leave a comment on all of your music telling you how amazing you are! All your music is awesome!
just had this in my recommendations. i cant believe i havent heard of you earlier. its amazing i love your music
These guys write their songs like if Eminem made punk rock. The lyrics and annunciations are on point!
Yo wtf where did this gold come from
a true collection of bangers, will play it next time at the beach. 10/10.
Few and far between have I had a musical experience like this. Outstanding. Cover to cover a certified classic. Hats off gentleman.
OKAY THIS IS BOMB, I CANT BELIEVE I ONLY DISCOVERED U GUYS TODAY, LY
How tf did I not know of this band for so long cause this shit is amazing
so real
this has been my favorite song for pretty much 1 year
which one?! this is an ep!
@@GoodKidband oh whoops should of been more specific, definitely slingshot
one of the EP's of all time.
I found good kid a while back on Spotify, I was making a playlist and alchemist came up, I gave it a listen and was instantly hooked, a bit later I looked up the rest of your music and honestly all the songs are bangers, the energetic guitar rifts and chords, the 180 tempo is perfect for my runs, where 180 tempo is super important, you’re definitely my favorite band and I’m so glad Spotify recommended you guys to me!
Holy shit, i liked this album even though i didn't pay attention to the lyrics but damn, Tell Me You Know is really sad
