- How Neck Deep Surpassed Pop Punk
-----------------------------------------------------
Neck Deep is a UK band on the verge of releasing their four LP 'All Distortions Are Intentional' via Hopeless Records (July 24th).
Fronted by Ben Barlow, Neck Deep has been active since 2012.
Neck Deep found major popularity with their pop punk masterpiece "Life's Not Out To Get You". However, following the success of that album, they went for an even bigger sound on their following effort "The Peace and the Panic".
The album did phenomenally well and Neck Deep was blowing up faster than ever. The growth never ceased after that album.
Now we're in 2020 and Neck Deep is the biggest they've ever been before releasing an album.
All Distortions Are Intentional is the furthest they've been removed from their initial sound. And they sound amazing.
I can't wait to see what the world thinks of it.

I deeply appreciate your support.

Edit: 4:37-4:53
I had to replace the song due to a claim blocking it partially worldwide. When that happens it tends to kill a video forever.
It was a tough decision to make bc it disrupts the overall flow of the video. But it was a compromise to give it the best change to continue circulating through the algorithm.
I’ll never understand stuff like this. Bc, from the very beginning all of the revenue was being funneled to hopeless bc I used Neck Deep songs. Which is more than fair and I expected + am 100% okay with.
It’s not their fault, they’re awesome. But it just makes no sense to partially block a video worldwide when it’s making your own copyrighted material money. Again, it’s just dumb complicated copyright stuff and not Hopeless’s fault.
Thank all, have a safe Sunday. -Nate
this might get lost in a sea of comments since I'm not going to pin it. But thank you all so much for the support you show. I try not to say it too much and be annoying about it, but it's something I think about often. I may not know each one of you individually, but I genuinely say that I appreciate each and every person's support. Hope you have a great upcoming weekend. -Nate
Keep up the awesome videos Nate! We all appreciate all the time and effort clearly being put into them!
You too my mate. Love you!!
Thank you for all the amazing, high quality, and original videos! Have a great weekend.
This video is a big deal for me as you have shown me so many bands that I fell in love with (hot mulligan etc) and I thought I was a pretty big neck deep fan. Really got into them from the peace and the panic and now I'm listing to LNOTGY and it's actually heavier then I thought it was Gunna be. Love it all and thanks for helping me find more amazing music
Keep it up man, love your videos. They're so well done, catch ya mate
Is it weird making a video about a band that hasn't broken up or committed a horrible crime?
i swore they had some allegations against them? maybe not then
😂
twopercentmilk their old guitarist did. He left the band when the allegations came up. His last album was LNOTGY.
Brent Collins Makes sense. Like NFG, once the pedo leaves the bangers go with them. Neck Deep has been total trash since LNOTGY and NFG has really lacked good lyrics since Steve Klein was booted.
Stephen Dre Lloyd wasn’t a nonce, the police done a full investigation and found that he was innocent, that girl ruined his career for fuck all
Neck Deep and TSSF were the two main bands I listened to during college. They've both grown a lot and I love them for it.
They’ve both come a long way!
Them and wonder years are definitely too 3 of that era of pop punk hardcore (easycore) that brought attention to the style that NFG was already doing but with more aggression. It was a fun time to see shows.
Tssf is good, Neck Deep is not.
Stephen Dre Their styles have been quite different for a while now, so it doesn’t surprise me that some people like one and not the other. At the end of the day though, saying Neck Deep isn’t good is just your opinion. It won’t change the minds of their fan base, or the bands success in the future.
@@eli9404 yep
Neck Deep is a true inspiration, no one ever proved they were good by doing something easy
Couldn't agree more!
smooth seas don't make good sailors ;)
crazy that lnotgy turns five next month
you mean 1? sorry, but I can't accept that it's turning 5
10 in 1 year
@@ches2 really hoping for an anniversary tour
@@thetragedyofcommons Ben said they aren’t but idk
@@ches2 yeah it isn’t really surprising
Neck Deep was my Tumblr band. A Part Of Me was EVERYWHERE
BIG DUMMY FACTS
I found these guys from a CSGO music kit and they’ve stuck since. A great band
Same thing dude
That’s dope haha
same
It’s one of the more expensive ones too. I saw it was in a case and paid $5 for a key and ended up with this $12-$15 kit
Bought the most expensive kit on the community market for the hell of it a few years ago.. $20 CAD and started to look into them after and fell in love with LNOTGY and all of their work prior to and following it. My favourite band right now for sure
I'd say LNOTGY is probably the fifth or fourth best pure pop punk album ever.
It’s my favorite album of any genre of all time
Top 5, no doubt
I think it is the EOTS of this Generation?
Still found TPATP to be better.
Ace Kianno Velasco Oh it absolutely is
I've been with Neck Deep since the LNOTGY era. They've definitely changed quite a bit over the last couple albums, but honestly, they still sound like "Neck Deep" to me. Maybe it's Ben's voice and the way he writes lyrics, but it still feels familiar with this new album.
Honestly I don't think Neck Deep has necessarily gotten worse over the years but I do think all of their music has grown old to me and I honestly just don't care for any of their music the way I used to.
I agree completely. They used to be one of my favorite bands and now I rarely listen to them.
Same dude same
The albums singles give me more of a early 2000’s pop punk vibe compared to the 2015 angry pop punk. Both of which i love tho
Definitely!
@@NateTheMateForever I keep telling people if pop punk would have progressed outside of the Top 40 influenced sound of the late 2000s, this is what it would have sounded like.
Turns out that the "arena sound" played out pretty well since they play arenas sometimes in the UK. Seeing ND at Wembley Arena was probably the coolest shit I'd ever seen.
Harry Phillips At the Don Broco show right? ND were sick that night
@@xXcharliegoonerXx Yep!
“I can’t t name a band that started playing pop punk and has had this intense of a transformation” turnover: *exists*
Haha yeah, that was an ill-conceived statement looking back just a few days later. I was more so meaning in terms of breaking through to the mainstream. Just wasn’t as precise or clear as I should’ve been haha
hahaha i thought this too

Thoughts on All Distortions Are Intentional?
I respect that it doesn't feel like selling out, it feels like this is genuinely what they want to do and what they have been working towards but it's just not for me
have you heard it already?
Maddee hopeless sent it to me a few weeks early
Nate The Mate damn. you’ve definitely got me more optimistic about it so thank you for your overview.
Not the biggest fan op Ben's voice on the record. The production is top notch tho.
imo the songwriting on this album is more mature, it’s catchy as hell, and I have a blast while listening to it. I dgaf what the haters say. Cheers to always evolving and growing!!
This video could've also been made about Enter Shikari and that's why these two bands will always hold a very special place in my heart.
I forgot about enter shikari
I get so excited to watch every single one of your videos, always end up with more playlists to listen to 💕
I've been reviewing Neck Deep all week, and gave the new album a listen (for my review that will be up tonight). And for the new record, I enjoyed it. It's not for everyone, but I enjoyed it.
Oh yes, I feel you! I enjoyed it so much!
What I love about lnotgy album is I always remember the days when I was young, free and its not just about love, its about life.
Beautifully put!
Nate delivers again! Thank you! I find the album excellent and makes me emotional one track after another. It also makes me miss live gigs especially during this weird times of pandemic. Their song writing is ace. I watched this video after listening to the album and this video makes me emotional too. All the feels! ❤
Thank you Camz 💕
I can respect the different sound of this album. It is really good, but I’d be lying if I said I didn’t miss the harder/more pop punk sound.
And if you're not into their new stuff, just listen to WSTR.
they're changing their style to match neck deep again
wstr went awful first
FAX
Wstr>Neck Deep fight me
This really helped me become more open minded to the new sound. Thanks for a fresh perspective and reminding me that Neck Deep doesn't have to stick to LNOTGY energy to have a special place in my heart.
DAMN YOU REALLY PUT INTO WORDS WHAT I HAVE IN MIND ABOUT THEIR LATEST ALBUM! GREAT VIDEO
Loving all the constant uploads
i think their new stuff is more matured and polished so much better than before. they proving their sound in every stuff they made until now looks more effectual.
Been waiting forever for you to make a video about Neck Deep’s new album. How good. Keen for an in depth album review soon enough ❤️🙌🏻
thanks brendan!
I loved the video keep it up man!!
The Rain In July EP means so much to me now. When I listened to that EP over 5 years ago, everything seemed hopeful for the future. Hopeful of growing up, becoming the person I wanted to be, and leaving my hometown in search of a better future. The songs still resonate to me today. Now I am here, 5 years later, the same person living in the same town. Life sucks sometimes, but I still jam that EP, each time remembering the high hopes I had when I first heard it.
My band Everyone and Anyone played show with them last year and from what i can tell the limelight couldn't of been placed in a better direction! Such sound dudes!.
Thank you for speaking my mind, Nate!!! 💜🍊
Excellent video!!
Nate I loved this as always!! I’ve been listening to neck deep since 2016 and I’m finally getting to see them this year I’m so frickin excited!!!!!
thank you my mate!
Nate this is unrelated to anything in the video (great video still) but MAN It's been awesome to see your channel explode!
Mate, you always kill the production on every video. I love it. I loved ADAI as well!
Sick video as always 🖤
Great video man!
great video man! very insightful :)
Love your videos! Great to see you here (:
Love you broski
Neck Deep is great and has diversified their sound a little bit, but to be honest they're still very pop punk to my ears, and everything they do is still pop punk-related, songs like in Bloom are not far from poppy songs done by other pop punks bands before.
They're just really good at their job and know how to keep things fresh in my opinion.
Awesome Nate!
This video is amazing thank you for saying all of this because i've recently seen some hate on ND mainly because "its nothing like LNOTGY" and this video really highlights many issues in the pop punk scene. ND has been a huge inspiration from me and this album solidifies that even more. Very happy with the direction of this album and very happy with this video. Thank you Mr. Nate.
nate my m ate, I'm loving your content, keep up the great work!
thank their old guitarist for LNOTGY being so good
i was so stoked on rain in july when it came out. saw them at the wishful thinking release show in London and smoked a joint with ben in the tour van
crazy to see where they are now, mad props
Great video nate ❤️
feels bad only got into neck deep late 2019, fking love em
legitimately the only reason i’m boutta listen to the new album. thx for the insight i was pretty stuck in my mindset
YES been waiting for this vid! Love the new album and you Nate thanks for being cool dude!💙
Thank you so much Kristian! I always see you commenting on m vids and I appreciate it
They are so good every single new release is good idk how they do it
So proud of these guys and they are from my hometown of Wrexham 🏴🤘🏻
The way that Ive loved this band since 2013 is insane to me. I continue to be impressed with their change and progression and ever since LNOTGY came out, Neck Deep as musicians have made a huge impact on my life and even affected my world views. I think this new album is a ton of fun, while also touching on some melancholy feelings, as well as creating a sort of musical experience of lightheartedness and focusing on embracing various parts of life and individual existence. I’ve listened to it everyday since its release and am constantly finding phrases or lyrics that speak to me in some way. A smashing record from a smashing band, as usual.
Neck Deep, TSSF, and Real Friends were my pop punk favorite bands for so long! I’ve grown out of Neck Deep i guess, but they’re amazing regardless. I love hearing them pop up on my daily mixes
Dude, i have had the same experience with the album growing on me. Fucking getting stuck in my head until I grew to like the song. I Revolve is such a huge song. stoked to listen to the rest of the album
This is so good. I can’t wait for this album to come out tomorrow!
Thank you my mate!!!
Notification gang, where are you?
I always thought Neck Deep was a cover band so I never really paid attention to them. About 3 years ago I gave it all a try. These guys are crazy talented.
I've been listening to Neck Deep since 2014 and I'm glad they made it. I can't lie though, I really miss the pop punk sound... They don't even play a part of me any more.
Fuck yes! Neck deep is one of my five favorite bands, and I'm so proud that they managed to actually merge their sound with a more pop direction.
All Distortions are Intentional is a beautiful record. One of my top 3 releases of 2020 (so far) for sureee
this is the video we need!
I remember a few years ago before peace and the panic a guy made a vlog and he used kali ma and I was like what is this song! He replied with the title and band and since then I've been hooked I finally saw them on the blink tour and it was like one of the best experiences in the pit. So sad I had tickets to see them this year in this really cool club downtown but of course its cancelled.
I LOVE THIS ONE! YOU SHOULD DO ONE LIKE THIS ABOUT SAMMY CLIFFORD AND WSTR!!!
We need a follow up on the new album man
Bro, one of the best punk bands to come out in last few years. Gold Steps changed my life.
This album is where the felt they were trying to go. And I think they did it well! I LOVE when bands evolve and can still do it. Example, I love the album last young renegade by ATL. But most of the fandom hated it. I love when bands push their boundaries. And I believe this is my favorite album. And my favorite go in reverse order. You’re right, I feel like you can tell they put their hearts into this album!
they've grown over 200,000 listeners on spotify since this video im so proud of Neck Deep
I feel like they are missing something. That something is Lloyd. He was that force behind the band, his lyrics, guitar playing... god that is what is needed. There are some good songs since he left, but it hasn’t been the same. I’ll await the next State Champs album.
Well said!
What’s the opening song ? Super details content BTW good stuff!!!
gold steps
Would you every do a video on Neck Deep, The Story So Far, and State Champs talking about how each band has ascended the Pop Punk genre in it's own way since they are all still very relevant in today's terms. Also, considering they were the top tier of the genre in the early 2010's?
The only thing I don't like about their new sound for this latest album is his new vocal tone. It sounds really tame. His peace and panic voice still had attitude imo
I fucking love them i just found out about them 2 years ago, and i love their album covers, their sound,even the people in neck deep are funny as shit, love them
At first I hated All Distortions are Intentional but after I listened to it a bit more I absolutely loved it I don't know how
i feel you
Love this video! But just wanted to give my perspective. I feel that their newer music is also pop punk, as much as their older stuff. It might not be the fast paced skate punk blast beat style pop punk of their early work, but their new stuff still has a feel of a new take on the 2000s radio pop punk like Blink’s Self Titled album. Pop punk is a super diverse genre and their newer stuff is as pop punk as their old stuff.
Thank you! Interesting take, I agree there are many styles of pop punk. I think people who don’t closely inspect the genre wouldn’t recognize that, but there are so many different types
This video is great, I love the way you broke down their career from the viewpoint of every album. I’m a big neck deep fan and am so excited for the album, do I think it will be as good as LNOTGY? No. Will I fucking blast it for months and have it stuck in my head? You bet your ass
It will get really stuck
Nate The Mate update: they have indeed surpassed pop punk with this album.
ADAI night take the cake as their best album for me. I love the writing, I love the progression in their sound. It really feels like they poured their heart into it.
Ill remember the days in CSGO hitting that clutch and the breakdown in LNOTGY comes in before the next match
Nate has a way of making every band seem larger than life
Aw :’)
The peace and the panic is my favorite album and I still consider pop punk
Nate please do a documentary video on the band Beach Bunny. Pretty pretty please!! Thanks man!
this is such a good fucking video bro, nailed it on the head💙
Thank you kind mate
Nate i need to know if u have ever heard Stickup Kid. I know I'm biased but i feel like they deserve a lot more attention because their music is genuine and they are all very nice!
I’m actually friends/acquaintances with them. They played in my hometown so many times haha. Future Fire still holds up for me
I feel like the reasons for surpassing pop/punk here can also be said about Waterparks. I can see it with Neckdeep too, but they seem to keep to the conventions of pop/punk more
Nate do u listen to peach pit? you should make a video on them, they are the only thriving band out rn that I love as much as my old pop punk favs.
I've never really been into Neck Deep but I'll give the new album a listen, I liked Sick Joke.
Just hear me out on this point. I agree with everything you’ve said, but there’s just one more additional point I’d like to add. I think Neck Deep would’ve been a far different band today had Lloyd never left the band. I’m all in for Neck Deep, loved every single release including ADAI, but Lloyd was a creative genius, and had they’d gone this direction with him still in the band, I think the last two release would’ve sound insanely different and massive.
I agree! Would be interesting to see how things would be if he never left
1 have one tattoo, and that a neck deep tattoo.
I have heard the new album and think its their weakest effort in my ears.
But its their best effort progression wise.
I support what they do and I'll always will go out and go their shows when this covid stuff is over.
I'm happy for them
I have one Green Day (American Idiot) tattoo and a BMTH (Sempiternal) inspired one. Both changed, both aren't the same as before and I don't necessarily prefer them now, but a tattoo simbolizes the love for a band and what they meant to you at the time of getting the tattoo, and that stays, even if you end up not liking the band anymore. So I feel you man, and a Neck Deep (LNOTGY) tattoo has been on my list for a couple years now, I'm just trying to figure out where I should do it.
@@ExploreModding The funny thing is, its a happy judgement day tattoo. But it has alot of meaning to it
Its still pop punk. Regardless of anything they still doing it. They are just maturing and developing as artists
I think Brand New starting out as Pop-Punk band changed more than Neck Deep more successfully and with a more die hard fanbase. At least until everything that came out about Jesse Lacey.
neck deep is very good, I loved the new album: ''all distortions are intentional''
I always listening to pop punk since 1996, but I discovered this band 3 years ago. Normally, ''new punk'' band that are not from nostalgia , I wouldn't care much. But this one is really good, and I had to buy their album. Pretty rare , they must be good ;)
I love the new album!
Seb their bassist/Ben's brother mixes for them and is a genius. They also did work on the latest tracks from Maggie Cassidy in songs like Just to Know & S.A.D which I would highly recommend. Seb is a genius.
They're still pop punk. Tbh their sound is just closer to 90s pop punk than the emo era.
ADAI IS AWESOME and i agree with you, the more i listen to it the more i love it.
Simple Plan. Mxpx they are bands that pop punk keeping alive still 💪💪
I liked this video... But I kinda think they still sound pretty "pop punk" to me lol, I'd still call them "Neck Deep - The pop punk band."
Hey man, have you ever thought of doing a video on The Wonder Years?
Yes! By the end of the year is my goal.
@@NateTheMateForever Awesome! Looking forward to it, you never disappoint.
