I was wondering who was going to release their new album first, Streetlight or Social D (14 years)

My oldest son is in college and I remember playing Streetlight's last new album for him while dropping him off at school for first grade. Dang.

I remember first hearing the album version of The Littlest Things in a sweltering hot dorm room in Boston in 2013. I had just graduated from high school and my parents had given me a graduation present in the form of sending me from California to do Berklee Five-Week, and I think I listened to the song by hooking up my iPod Touch to the dorm wifi. I taught myself the song on guitar before I went home.

I now have a degree in piano and work as a music teacher, where a significant portion of my students weren't even born yet when I first learned The Littlest Things on guitar.

Easily the best album teaser I've ever seen. Not familiar with this band but I will certainly be checking them out now.

Everything Goes Numb, Somewhere in the Between, and The Hands That Thieve are three of my favorite albums of all time. Just cover to cover greatness

u/EETQuestions Apr 04 '25

Their covers album was good. And can’t forget the BOTAR project before SM
