Wait before you meme
This album came about me during a time I was having a hard time accepting there may be nothing after death. I've been raised in a Christian family, so I took the whole 'life after death' thing for granted. Now, for one reason or another I now highly doubt this theory of life and death, and now have the mindset that this is our one lot, and when we die we die.
This album helped me, because kendrick speaks about dying but remaining in memory, and that eventually that will fade. Just hearing other people having the same thoughts as me really helped.
...and the Native Hipsters also helped, just the ridiculousness of their stuff helped me realise how beautiful everything is and that dying is nothing to worry about.

What went wrong?
I realize they're a "meme" band around these parts but the Monitor really touched on a lot of issues I have. Interviews with Stickles sort of confirm a lot of why I feel this way too. I think you can really track the progression of Patrick Stickles across the albums, and I think that plight is relatable to a lot of people in a certain demographic.
He's a smart dude born into a good family with a significant expectation of success. He went to college, did all the stuff he was supposed to (despite his personal/mental issues) and finds himself at the end of this "expected path" Get good grades, fall in line, go to college.
TAOG/The Monitor/Local Business handle these sort of topics through literature/music references that at once paint an image of the writer, appeal to the audience, and set a tone. Intermingling Absurdism, Bruce Springsteen and the Civil War amongst other things could have come across as try hard or trite (and people who feel that way are somewhat justified).
I was a huge bright eyes fan as a kid so the mediocre singing/introspective lyrics thing clearly appeals to me, but I really appreciate how well Titus handle themes of depression despondency and dependence without whining about high school girlfriends.
"depraved and disgusting" I spew like a fountain
"And debased, defaced, disgraced and destroyed
"Most of all disappointed" I say atop this mountain
As I urinate into the void
Fuck I'm frustrated, freaking out something fierce
Would you help me, I'm hungry, I suffer and I starve
Oh I struggle and I stammer 'till I'm up to my ears
In miserable quote unquote art
But however since our forefathers came on this land
We've been coddling those we should be running through
Please don't wait around for them to come and shake hands
They're not gonna be waiting for you
Cause these humans treat humans like humans treat hogs
They get used up, coughed up, and fried in a pan
But I wasn't born to die like a dog
I was born to die just like a man

She was probably fucking him on the side. 5 months after a divorce smells of established relationship.

This album has been with me for almost 10 years now, listen to it at least once a week and I can't remember a time it hasn't emotionally grounded me. It's just so atmospheric and soft
I don't know how people feel about Bomb the Music Industry here but this is by far their most coherent/relatable album. I like some of their rougher stuff more but the end of "Feels Just Vacation" gets me every time:
>In truth, December destroyed me. January crushed me. By February, I was not myself. >March rolled in like beatings and rolled out like a bear hug.
>In April I stared out the window for a fucking month.
>I don't want October. I don't want November.
>I don't want to feel those crippling blows
>that I can't explain to myself, my friends or you so I soften them with hours of Nintendo.
>And it might be 'cause I'm not alone but this vacation feels more like home than refreshing e-mails I won't respond to from people I don't talk to.
