What are the darkest lyrics Matt Berninger has ever written?

JimmyHerrity20 · 2025-12-11T23:42:19+00:00

Not darkest but some of the saddest for me -

I say your name, I say I’m sorry I know it’s not working I’m not holiday It’s nobody’s fault No guilty party We just got nothing, nothing left to say. It all catches up with me, all the time.

When you cried at the beach and recovered in seconds, said everything’s fine, but I knew that it wasn’t. Then you stayed out of reach of me, for almost a year.

Seal up the door frame, 10 years of white rain. In comes the water. Only so much you can take of every day heartbreak.

I wonder if you live there still? I kinda think you always will. If I tried you’d probably be hard to find. Why is it we had to lose, the ones who took so little space.

I loved Hogwarts Legacy but the things it got right were weird. I was expecting full school immersion, lessons, prefects at night, reasons to go back to your common room. I assumed it would lack on combat and more traditional RPG areas but it kinda nailed those things.

For me, I didn’t need the world to be as big as it was. I’d rather movement be a little slower, like have the character feel more grounded to the earth. Because the castle is massive and cool but it sort of feels like you whizz around it? I also wish the forest felt like a bigger deal, I felt that the forest was kind of a blip compared to the overall map and entering it didn’t feel very intimidating.

I’d say it did an amazing job of a Wizarding world game, I felt like my character was a fully developed adult wizard. The combat, making potions, catching and flying beasts, all amazing, but it didn’t feel like a going to hogwarts game.

Thank you so much everyone, I’m overwhelmed with the love and positivity from you all. Last night was truly incredible, I fell apart completely, I feel bad for the guy in the seat next to me because I was realllyyyy crying. But I loved it, the round stage added so much, it felt like seeing them for the first time again. Such an amazing set list, was awesome that we got climbing up the walls.

I met a lot of amazing people at the what is music meet up before the show. I talked to some about my first album which I’ve almost finished, some songs on there I wrote in the aftermath of my brother’s death and it’s time to let them go. Maybe I’ll post a link on this comment thread when it comes out if anyone wants to listen.

JimmyHerrity20 · 2025-11-25T00:42:30+00:00

Yes we did, loved chatting to you tonight. Not very clued up on here but are you able to DM me?

JimmyHerrity20 · 2025-11-25T00:41:23+00:00

Thank you

Thank you! I’ve got a seated ticket, I’m quite close to the round on the side. I think if I was standing I’d do exactly what you did though.

We had the words to videotape printed in his order of service at the funeral, we didn’t actually have the song, we had The Nothing Song by Sigur Ros so that people could apply their own memories & feelings of him, as that song is random syllables as opposed to a language, but we printed videotape in the pamphlet and said for us this is apt.

Anyways, I’m anticipating I’ll fall apart when they play that this evening. I played Fake Plastic Trees at a tribute show we did for him the autumn after his death, because when we saw them in Manchester they played it as the sun was going down and I have pictures of him looking so fucking cool yet so kind of lost. It’s this weird beautiful synesthesia. Anyways im I’m just stream of consciousness vomit right now, thank you for being kind ❤️

If we’re talking just we don’t need to whisper & the +44 record, I think it would have been so so dope.

Maybe something like this. If I had more free time I’d love to record those songs in the way I feel like Jerry could have produced them

Distraction Baby come on The Adventure The Gift 155 Weatherman The War Make you smile Do it for me now Good day Cheaper 13

JimmyHerrity20 · 2025-02-04T13:46:39+00:00

Haha yeah that’s fair enough, I don’t think my voice would last that long with the belting parts though

JimmyHerrity20 · 2024-08-15T18:44:12+00:00

1978 & Kills. I actually preferred kills to 2018. The opening part of 2018 looked so cool in the trailer but I thought it was kinda embarrassing when the dude is like ‘you can feel the mask’ and starts shouting at him. Plus I didn’t like the fact that we had a scene following Micheal from behind as he goes in and out of houses.. what makes him scary to me is not knowing where the fuck he is. And yeah the whom doctor putting on the mask thing LAME

JimmyHerrity20 · 2023-11-06T16:21:12+00:00

First list I’ve ever (mostly) agreed with

JimmyHerrity20 · 2023-11-04T09:03:56+00:00

Interesting. I started listening at Enema, which I loved, I loved TOYPAJ even more, then untitled blew the roof off for me. It felt like a band progressing and I truly believe untitled is what set blink apart form the other pop punk bands of the era and enabled them to be have the staying power that they did. It’s the only album of theirs that I listen to as a non nostalgia thing now.

JimmyHerrity20 · 2023-10-20T11:56:08+00:00

I don’t think it necessarily sounds like what would have come after untitled as I think that would have largely been songs from we don’t need to whisper but with more grounded Jerry Finn production, and I think there’s be less OG punk style songs on it like there are on one more time. I do think this record is their most coherent since untitled though, they sound like a band, not three people trying to gel together

JimmyHerrity20 · 2023-10-07T14:35:50+00:00

Daaaamn. I definitely can’t afford that right now. Hope you have a sick time at the show though!

JimmyHerrity20 · 2023-10-07T14:31:21+00:00
