Nathan Kutzscher

First off this this ep is amazing, made the mistake of listening to fairytale while out Shopping at the mall and felt quite a few feelings I didn't know were still hanging around.

Drednot

If I had a nickel everytime a goth punk sang a sad song about her dad and potatoes, I'd have 2 nickels, which isn't a lot but it's weird that it happened twice.

Jaidyn Groth

Dead and Gone is such a vibe 🎉🎉

Coco

The Devil I know slaps so hard!! Who did the growling bits?

Macy Proctor

Not me ACTUALLY crying to Fairytale. What the hell Bethany 😭💔

Macy Proctor

The Devil I Know goes HAAAARRDD!!! 💀🔥🔥 THE SCREAMING?!?!?

Damon Perron-Laurin

This slaps, you didn't have to go this hard xD

Samantha Mann

This was so cute! I’m glad I listened in order of the track list because that made the last track all the cuter! I have to say, you guys are the best to your patrons! All this new content for the Holidays!

David Keizer

Im so impressed this album is amazing!!! Id love to see this live it would be so hard i can already see the butchin light show and outfits scary would wear!! Amazing work y'all as always.

Finn

i am transcended.

Shallow Rivers

This album slapped my nuts clean off. So FUCKING good, god damn it.

Hanna Wen

FUCK THIS IS SO GOOD BETH!!!

Kayden Pierce

You can be my man If you just picked me I love you Hermie 😭😭 This makes his death and Normals conversations with Scary hit different. They both lost someone they love😔

maude the goblin

Beth May, you are a freaking legend

Nat Jackson

Gonna tell my kids this was Taylor Swift's Reputation era

Xwelldo

This album is like T-Swift meets Psychostick... I LOVE IT!!!

Teagan Turner

Holy shit. This is really really good

Jeremy

Not even a little surprised that every song is at the very least fun, but why the fuck does everything slap so goddamn HARD!?!?! Can we get a sequel? Joyless Juniors? Haha

Kyle Barnes

So I was expecting something like Rocks Rock (great EP) and this blew me away. You can hear all the genres that inspired the album. Kicking off with Dead and Gone that sounds like a bands I would catch at Warped Tour Then we have Fairytale and Secret Admirer giving that Emo mid soundtrack break that just hits you with lyrics and the acoustics. Fucking The Devil I Know (Potato) goes so fucking hard. If we got a Freddie Wong guitar solo after the break down it would have such Ax7 with the Rev vibes. Finally the perfection that is The Worst Thing in a World is Hope. My jaw dropped with how good the entire team and especially Beth’s vocals were on this one. Thinking about where in the timeline this was made too. (before Terry’s death and everything) with the boys ruining what would be an apology song was both funny and made a lot of sense. No shit she didn’t want to apologize for a while after the boys interrupted A WOMEN trying to say something. 🤣 Incredible job to the entire team on this one

chris the mystic

Fairytale made me want to comfort scary.

Isaac A

Unpopular opinion: rocks rock is better

Julia

It's so goooooddd!! Beth really hit it out of the park with the writing and performance! She nailed the vibe completely and you love to see it 😍😍

Zac Childs

I was expecting this to be great after how rocks rock turned out, but this is even better than I hoped it could be

james evelyn

YOOOOOO WTF THIS RIPSSSSSS

Luke Schultz

Damn this fucking rules, just like the rap album I'm blown away. Nailed it

Amanda Kissel

My jaw dropped - seems super out of left field for me... I never got those vibes. Or any vibes for that matter. Am I just oblivious or…?

Amanda Kissel

This shit is too good for Shade Witch. She would be in the ad you have to listen to to get to Scary’s slideshow music video on YouTube.

Andrew J Mendez

suddenly I'm ready to forgive Scary for everything that happened tbh.

Carter

Dead and gone is awesome!

Matcha_mochi

I seriously need Beth's deep dive into the making of this album cuz holy cow what an incredible performance! Loved all the songs, but The Devil I Know (Potato) is SO fucking good - just pure goosebumps 🖤

Phoenix Vizva’i

Damn what a treat 😊 sounds like everyone has their own faves, and mine might’ve been different in a different moment, but today the Hermie song was really hitting me! How much of a chance of that reveal getting addressed in the next 3 (3!!) episodes? Def need a Teen Talk just for this, so much to parse through!! 🤘 personally loved the subversive rhyme schemes Beth kept coming up with too

Izan

This is giving heavy Jonathan Coulton vibes 🔥🔥

Noodyl

I'm two songs in and I already adore this. It's truly so glorious!

flesh_prison

I had no idea this was even happening. Best Xmas gift ever! The Devil I Know (Potato) is such a banger! Such a great job! I’ve got it saved in my cloud player to jam out in my car indefinitely! 😎

mack tucker

this is so amazing omg

Jake Lee

This is arguably one of the best punk albums i’ve ever listened to. There’s goofs from the show but the lyrics are incredible and actually made me feel things. Also in the last song when the boys cut in to wish her a happy birthday, I cried. I love y’all so much! 💕

Marc Wasserman

These creators constantly impress and surprise me with the depth and breadth of their skill sets

Goose Brigader

this is so unironically good, like damn.

Gem Thomas

BETH WE DEMAND A WHOLE BREAKDOWN OF THE ALBUM ON TEENTALK, THIS WAS AMAZING!!

Kylie Martin

Wow, how did Scary get a copy of my high school diary.

Luke Schultz

How the fuck is this so so so good. I've listened to it constantly and it's just so on point.

Piece O' Quiche

I listened to this entire album twice and then regressed to Something Corporate. Felt so right.

midderbork

This is so fucking fire

CyanSorrow

It came up once or twice but never in depth iirc. I think it was mentioned in passing that Scary has a thing for him.

CyanSorrow

Another fantastic album. No surprise

Adrianna Veloz

You didn't have to go so hard on POTATOES but you did. You did that for us.

Mo Reed

I DONT LIKE.. ANY TYPE OF... POOOOTAAATOOO

Richard Sanchez

So when is Butthole Ricochet coming to Dallas TX on tour?

Parker Rowell

Incredible work from fantastic artists. Worth every tear I shed listening to you all 🥲❤️

Beau

This has no right to be as good as it is 😂

BORG

This shit goes hard

Matthew Hough

This rules! Keith Cooper is my buddy that guy is awesome too I love worlds colliding!

Brian Stricklen

The Devil I Know (Potato) is so. fuckin. good. The entire album is well done. Rocks Rock, Butthole Ricochet... love the music coming from this podcast crew!

Nepsa Gniworg

Beth…. BETH??!?? FUCK.

cool guy Julian

still thinking about Secret Admirer y'all. does Beth know shes the funniest person alive

Elias

are there any plans to put this on the patreon-only spotify? I’d love to be able to listen to these songs on loop !!

Hi, I'm Deighve

Wasn't expecting Fairytale to make me ugly cry driving up I-15, but here we are!

Brian Ganninger

This whole EP slaps, holy sh*t Beth! Fairytale made me tear up and think of my mom who passed away. Worst Thing is Hope hit me because my spouse is battling progressive cancer. 😭👏🏻

Brian Ganninger

So much of Scary’s motivations and pathos are woven in, providing a glimpse of her inner teenage world. Really beautiful work.

Walnuts & Chocolate

Really wasn't disappointed by this, fantastic job! Especially blown away by the emotion Beth managed to carry through her voice and the pure rage & angst Freddie & Maxton portrayed through the instrumentals! Really love these little character albums 🙌 Would loooove to hear an Anthony one next, I was so impressed by his singing in the intros

Sara Crabtrey

This album is amazing!! I really hope we get a Teen Talk going into a deep dive about the songs and potentially ideas that were scrapped.

Shawn Bryan

Holy fuck guys! Beth you fucking killed it! Love the lyrics and instrumentals. When is it getting a vinyl release, cause I would buy that in a heartbeat!

Jim Funderburke

If you download the album and put it in you phones music folder you can then access it from spotify

Riley Primus

WOWEE good job y’all

King Richard

Dead and Gone is a banger

Topi Teerikangas

Oh Hell yeah. I love everything music related done by this group !

ToriLP

Am I surprised this is good ? No the music they create is always good! Did I expect to want to listen to these on repeat? No lol 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

lilly

THIS IS AMAZING 🫶🏼🫶🏼🫶🏼

Dustin Rogers

This is amazing I’m jamming out on a 6 hour ride to a Doctor Who museum!!! Whooo

Michael Brannon

Holy shit, all the jokes about being able to be silly and not good but it’s legitimately phenomenal

NotHim

this is not a good file name to have on my computer

Andrew G

Happy Honda Days to us, this is gold

WaxMan

This has the tight character relationship with Terry as rocks rock has with Henry which is fantastic. From a musical perspective I like that Terry isn’t in key all the time and a bit off. I like the rest of the band but I think it be better if it wasn’t perfect like with Terry. This is a bunch of teens you know

WaxMan

Sorry you’re going through all that man. Hope your wife beats that cancer’s ass!

Bryn

The scream vocals?! Is that Beth?! Incredible.

Ryan

Umm just got to fairytale. Wow beautiful sounds y’all threw together there just fantastic

crayonz29

OK, SO BIG PROBLEM, IM RELATING TO THE LYRICS!?, that's not good...

JP Salentine

Dead and Gone has been on repeat in my head since this dropped. Such a banger!!

Asyrius19

I love this, every song rocks! You guys put me in a certain time in music for each song, love the unexpected heaviness on "potato" love how "...hope" makes me think of deathcab for cutie but also some old school 80's synth rock/pop stuff simultaneously. I could go on but this comments too long. Love it and hope you're all doing well!

ToriLP

I would love a behind the scenes of making any of their songs if they ever film the process.

Cristian Reyes

I need help. In Secret Admirer there's a line that sound like "The bitter cold will finally... loss for words" that's what I hear and my reasoning is that she trys to think of something but she can't because she's at a loss for words. Or are they supposed to be different lyrics?

WaxMan

Would’ve been cool if Terry pulled a Glen Close and said that she didn’t have a band. That she just does it all in garage band and she sings and she doesn’t know the guitar cause it makes her fingers hurt.

Lizzie Blue

Wait Beth these lyrics????? wtf I was not expecting you to go so hard w this????? Like why does this actually slap??? Y’all are srsly amazing🤩🫶🏼🫶🏼🫶🏼

Aaron Smith

Omg it’s here!

Zero Guy

SHE ADMITTED SHE LOVED HERMIE AM I LATE TO THIS PARTY?!?

kckerr 1188

When is butthole ricochet getting a tour

andra

Incredible!!!

Eric

I never thought someone could say potato au gratin so HARD!!!

Emma

This is going to be my top album of 2024 I can just feel it

Jon Lee Andrade

This is SOOOO good! Really funny moments in between absolutely breaking my heart! Harmonies are gorgeous! Huge varieties in sound and pace and structure! 10/10 EP great job Also I 100% imagine Glenn playing the solo on the first track

Kael

#2 & #5 hit me in the feels, I loved the reference to rocks rock, and #6 made me genuinely angry at Taylor, Lincoln, & Normal

Kael

You might want to get that checked out, lol

Lucas goodall

I wanna see Freddy do like a tutorial on how to play these songs

FreakyBeeky

1. Absolutely iconic 2. Scary is 1000% in love with holly smith

Digi Anon

I thought there would be a good track or two, but the whole fucking album is amazing. It's so good! Do we get a Glen/Nick/Taylor Trio album next?

El-Rudo22

Rip Holly Smith

tutterstock

Ngl 14 year old me wouldve gone feral over this lmao

Josh J

I felt this way with Rocks Rock. The songs were fun but then Racism Doesn't Rock came on and I couldn't stop listening

Panda_Dork

This spoof album has no business being this good. ❤️😂 fairytale made me cry

Brynnah

Could we please get this in a Spotify audio feed? Like the other paid content?

Logan Paillaman

You can add mp4 files on to spotify, gotta go into settings and turn on local files

Zenabel

This is legitimately awesome. I’ve listened to it a bunch already and just listened to it again

Brynnah

Right? I cried in the car with my dad looking at me like wtf

Brynnah

I did finally figure this out but boy was it painful!

Brynnah

New realization- Scary singing about how the worst thing is Hope and dissing Henry, released right after Scary tells Normal he’s the glue that holds them together- Normal who lives on Hope and positivity in the face of literal eldritch horrors.

Brynnah

“Anyone who thinks that this rock rocks is a big granola dope” - the worst thing in the world is hope

Brynnah

It’s right here and it’s a gotta be a sleepover where we cry

Brynnah

Oh my god YES! I need this in my collection, really confuse people and then blow their minds!

Jess

I thought this was gonna be a one-off joke but this album slaps - awesome job teens!!!

Dana Woodward

Been listening to “the worst thing in the world is hope” on repeat since this was released. I sincerely want to thank you all for gifting us with these beautiful masterpieces

Dana Woodward

I have my local files turned on but it’s not downloading or adding to my Spotify. Is there another step I’m missing?

Brynnah

Okay, step one, plug laptop into computer and use computer Spotify app to add local files. Download to Spotify on computer and then be sure you’re logged into the same Spotify account on both, and change the source it’s playing from, this will allow you to switch from computer to phone, this did not work for me, I got the files but they read you have to download them from your laptop if you have access to these files. So it was playing on my computer Spotify but not my phone. You have to be on the same Wi-Fi, I was on the Wi-Fi extender- yes even if your plugged in. Now- if you have a mac you have to turn off iCloud music library, open Apple Music on Mac, go to preferences- general tab- in library section, uncheck sync library. This won’t erase music it just won’t auto sync, and all your backups are safe. It took me an hour to figure all of this out, so I hope some of it can help you! Mine now thankfully works!

Lu

I felt like I had a legitimate greek catharsis. Truly an incredible work of art

Kayden Pierce

How am I gonna explain to my friends that my favorite band is called Butthole Ricochet 😂😂 Seriously, y’all knocked it outta the park with this. Can we expect another talk with Maxton Waller about the production process?

Diana

This shit absolutely SLAPS. It has legitimately become my go-to album; I can't get over how amazingly talented you guys are xxx

Tommy

Yoooooooo 🔥🔥🔥

Benjamin Getchell

OMG This is actually really good! I would listen to this whole album unironically

Enzo Calvo

I need a band shirt of this album

Topi Teerikangas

Hmmm, IT only downloads dead and gone for me and i dont know what goes Wrong, anyone have a Fox for this

WickedChild95

Reminds me of MCR, I like it.

Nepsa Gniworg

WAIT I JUST FOUND THE SICKEST WORD PLAY. Secret Admirer, “it doesn’t help that everyone knows I’m just a turd” “It doesn’t help that everyone knows I’m just DETERRED (discouraged from doing something due to doubt or fear) holy shit BETHHHHHHH

Mason F.

Genuinely so damn good. Phenomenal performance

Jaden J

Talking butthole when?

Liam Kondelik

On iPhone it’s saving to my files but won’t let me uncompress it :( what am I doing wrong?

Dana Woodward

Thank you so much!! I will probably also spend an hour figuring this out today

hal

Brandon Bicknell

I know this was kinda a joke... but it's like really good

Gandheezy

I wish we had gotten a full recording of Scorpion Slut 🦂

Ryley Henry

Beth and Maxton... bravo, braaaavo! Brought me back to my own high school music scene. Brilliant work 🤙

DankLord420

If Mal Blum was a serial killer teen Seriously though, this EP is absolutely incredible, so well done. Beth, Maxton and Freddy fucking killed it Loved getting the perspective of the creation from the new BONUS

Priscilla

Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark is my everything

MoonMan

Shirokari

Paul Barden

Kevin Renskers

Jenessa drebnisky

This is so incredibly well done; holy moly you guys crushed it

Justin Govas

This is so perfect..... love the cover song the most so far but damn!

Kuko Creations

Jeezus what a phenomenal album! I like how you explored different subgenres of rock and how honest Scary was about her feelings regarding her dad, Hermy, Terry Jr., and herself. Pretty raw stuff! Beth, your vocals were amazing! Like, super fucking amazing! I want to hear more of your music!

Ian Dack

Dead and gone is a fucking tune! Whole album is great!

jomurgel

This is officially the album of 2024. 🥰

Jelly_Wizzard

HOLY BALLS! This is allready my 2024 jam <3

Charlotte Fresia

I want music videos for all of these 😭

Jared Jäbät Scheren Izred Jed

Listening to Dead and Gone on repeat because it genuinely slaps and reminds me of revenge era my chemical romance

Yoka

no joke just listen to them talk about this and then listened to the album got to the song about hermy and legit started crying when she said his name, listening to this after knowing he died it is like you finding a note about someone who had feelings for you and your like you fucking idoit why did you not say or do anything cow noz they are dead damn for a comedy series this was actually so e,emotional: i felt it: well done everyone

Sarah Acosta

I'm so happy you guys, this is LITERALLY so forking great. Pure. Forking. Gold. My friends! I just got caught up and was like, (in Goofy's voice) "I'm gonna give it a try!" And I regret absolutely nothing. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Goose Cous

Ok hear me out…. A vinyl. A side Rocks Rock B side Butthole Ricochet

petra (with an e)

white bread

This is fire and went straight to my daily playlist.

Alex Brown

I love everything about this album. I wish it was on Spotify so i can throw it in the mix there lol

Kuko Creations

So here we are, months later after my first listen, and one of the tracks, "The Devil I Know", slipped into my randomized rock playlist, I did not realize until I heard Beth's vocals, and I literally squealed with delight and laughter! That's how good this album is! It flows perfectly well into everything else I like to listen to!
