THE WONDER YEARS are publishing a coffee table book about themselves (srs)

Will it include a chapter called ‘EASYCORE EXEGESIS’ in which they explain the tr00 meaning behind the zany song titles of their old songs like “Bout To Get Fruit Punched, Homie” and “Keystone State Dude-Core”?

    …holy shit. I actually liek this band but this just reeks of pretentiousness. inb4 they pull a Brand New and turn into boring indie rock

  4. the shape of pink fur coats to come says:

    glad to see Jim Jones supports the SYWH/ Dolan movement. Dipset, bitch.

  6. Robert says:

    Gross, these dudes are such babies. Saw them a few months ago in Austin and they got all asshurt when people tried to stage dive. so they got their morbidly obese crew member to throw people off the side of the stage. SO POSI BRO.

    • ghdana says:

      I’ve seen them a ton of times live, and quite a few times it was at places where the stage was big enough, yet small enough to dive. All of those times they looked like they had fun and liked seeing their fans have fun. You probably saw them at a venue with a stage where kids got into their equipment, or the fuckers wouldn’t get off the stage. Possibly a bad night.

    I’m not sure if they’re feeding into their egos, trying to make a dime, or just doing for some fan insight into their White People Problems. But no matter what it’ll at the least make a great conversation starter for the tr00 girls you’re trying to slam.

  8. Bronson says:

    WTF is up with these easycore bands, anyway? I really like The Wonder Years’ early stuff, but they, like ADTR, Four Year Strong, and surely other bands, at some point board they butthurt banana boat, seemingly never to return. Easycore.net features like, four bands that are keeping it real, and then a bunch of wet-blanket fodder influenced by the type of bullshit I convinced myself to like early on in college when I was ‘trying to figure out who i rly was’. I suppose a coffee table book is simply the next logical step in learning how to crawl as far up your own ass is possible, but seeing this sweet older song get posted just reminds me of how sad it is when bands suffer from DFD (degenerative fun disease) :’(

    • Sergeant D says:

      Its sad but true– the genre really has done a 180 and become a wretched hive of butthurt and faggotry :/ i can only assume its a manifestation of the altbro’s ‘srs artist’ phase that seems to be a requirement at some point in their 20s

      • TLDR says:

        I’m really digging the repeated “wretched hive of (fill in the blank)” homage to mos eisley. (srs)

        Is this a misc thing or r u bein original?

  9. Godeye says:

    Lost it at srs song title that starts with “Suburbia”.

  10. Autodidact says:

    Not to sound like a filth of ghey but I honestly think their first album was their best. I kinda like Suburbia too but for the life of me I can’t stand their lyrics ever since the Upsides and that EP with the Salinger song.

    brb “ppl don’t like my artsy bullshit in college, crying in public bathroom :’(”
    brb “i grew up in a philly suburb, mai lief is soooo hard”
    brb “i lived in my parents basement for a summer, pls give me attention”

  11. Totala Mad says:

    fuckin love that song sooo much! r.i.p captain munch!

  12. Totala Mad says:

    lol guys name is JIM JONES with a dolan pic X’D

  13. Jihodgy Beats says:

    wish I could afford a coffee table:((

  14. demcats says:

    Wood maybe read if coffee table book was about coffee tables…

    The synths in their easycore stuff = amaze. Might have to get that album!

  15. Jonnyfilth says:

    Maybe this is a sign that they’re dying?
    Like a retrospective look back at the band that was The Wonder Years.
    Now that they’re all 23 and about to graduate college and life is going to get WAY fucking harder since their gay rights studies degrees mean they’ll never get a job and they’ll become a regretcore band called The Blunder Tears.

  16. Christopher says:

    I always thought the Hawaiian Punch guy had antlers but it turns out it was a straw hat the whole time.

  17. Walker says:

    I bet that book is 80% black and white photos of the band being “passionate” on stage, 20% essays that are way too long about the usual overly serious punk stuff.

  18. Kory says:

    THIS. TWY make my butth hurt.

  19. Floss says:

    props for “easycore exegesis”.

  20. Anonymous says:

    Further reading from their website regarding the new book – “Help us keep proving that creative, thoughtful and dynamic art will always win over soul-less, cookie-cutter bullshit.” I forgot no other band has ever done a book of photos before…

    also – “the book captures the moments previously only experienced by members of the band. Inside the book you’ll find original lyric book scans, hand-written tour stories, scans of artifacts…”
