MIGGS

My favorite band, I found back in 2009, thanks to going to see another artist. I listened to their album “Unraveled”, on repeat for a 4 hour drive.  I was hooked at first listen. I shed a few tears having had many of the songs touch me like no others ever had. They weren’t just emotional songs they were songs that spoke my pain.
Of course everyone may feel a song differently than what it was originally written to evoke, and yes I know the story behind a few of these songs, but I still feel them for the original meaning I may have gotten from them. It really expressed a lot of what I was/am dealing with in my life, marriage, and still at 30-something discovering myself after having gotten married too young to have really known who I was, and in most respects lost who I was.

“I Believe” – Reflects my marriage. That sometimes feeling of despair, that feeling of stumbling through the motions, but still having hope that things will change.
“To Be Wrong” – Probably one of my favorites from them. “She swims when she just wants to sink, remembers how to think, She’s been deciding things like who she is and what that means, she’s been down long enough till finally enough’s enough. She got tired of the lie, she wants to feel alive, and she knows what she’s doing, she just wants to be wrong” 
“Nothing” – “I’m left holding nothing while you’re walking away with me”    “I’m an open book that you haven’t read”  Really speaks where I was at the time of finding these guys. Probably still am.
“Everything is Fine” – isn’t that something we all say even though it’s not? When deep down maybe we are really hurting? The lyrics perfectly reflect how, I know personally, how someone will say  I’m fine but under the surface I’m really not.

I’m still in awe of the way he has captured (having felt these emotions himself or not) the feelings so fucking perfectly.

They have an album that came after “Unraveled” called “Wide Awake” which has some excellent songs and some of those touch me just the same. There are some songs on it that for the life of me I haven’t figured out why it hasn’t gotten more notice. “Let the games begin” & “Girls and Boys” come on is everyone’s head stuck in the damn sand?
I will say at first listen “Enemy” was probably my least favorite on the album, still haven’t put my finger on why, I love the shit out of it now. Lol
“Fire” - has got to be my favorite on that album.    “you never knew me like you should, it’s never the endings that are good”  “there’s a windshield staring at my face and there’s a rear view saving my mistakes and I made a few… I’ve made a few.”
For a long time I couldn’t listen to the song “Damage” without crying. Not gonna share why, that would be opening an entire new can of worms. But I am always open to discuss… tweet, email or comment. Lol

Obviously I might be a little biased, but I’m beyond excited to see what these guys have cooked up with their upcoming album. Still no release date, as of yet, but I’m antsy as all hell. I’m confident that with the talent involved it’s gonna be better than the last. They have a free download of one of the new songs called "Pretty"on mp3.com here's the link

I’m kinda surprised this isn’t longer than it is… talking about my favorite band and all. HA.
Give them a listen, I really don’t think you’ll be disappointed. They are on a million different social media sites. Sorry not gonna name them all, but for the most part they are listed under “MiggsMusic”
