Personal Opinion:

 So I found this band because a friend of mine in Facebook said that and I quote "Modern Baseball has the single most relatable lyrics ever" and i was like, i want to see if that applies to me, why not. Saying that i checked them out and yeah some songs are infact relatable in some aspects, especially if you are post or about to graduate or in the beginning of college, though the things you relate about are mostly the down parts of things when you go to a bad party or some one stood you up etc it does have it's ups in the songs, it is quite the depressing band but not in a bad way. Because if you aren't here for the lyrics it has a nice tone to it and it is really catchy even if the lyrics don't apply. 
If you find this band interesting and want to see more check them

If you think I've missed something, disagree, agree or wanna add anything, comment!

I am fairly new to Undertale having passed it around April of this year but that doesn't mean in any way how much this game impacted me and how much I overall enjoyed the experience (mostly the pacifist route) but overall everything. I figured since the game recently got released for Nintendo Switch what better time to talk about this game and its wonderful music which by no one's surprise is by far my favorite aspect of this game. To think I almost passed the chance to play this game considering I still hold it as one of my favorite games that I have played this year. Thanks to a friend of mine who pushed me into playing it basically and actually buying it and not even play it until 2 to 3 months later but what eventually got me to play it was that this same friend brought his ps4 over one time and he had the Undertale Ruins Dynamic Theme which has a very melodic calm tune playing, this song ultimately made me want to play the game, because this song had something specia
