I absolutely love everything about this band. They have the lyrics I would never think of and the type of lyrics people have to sing along too and never get tired of hearing. They have sad music, happy music, meaningful music and the feeling of struggle in their lyrics. In the album Sweater Weather the lyrics, “And all I am is a man, I want the world in my hands” representing the desire or power and connection of everyone surrounding the singer or wanting something that the aritst wants and cannot have.
