Bob Balch is just an absolute monster on this song, incorporating all kinds of effects and atmosphere in addition to laying down an incredible groove filled with filthy solos. The guitar tone is among my favorite of all time. The bass goes hard too!

Ripe is an amazing band I have had the pleasure of listening to and admiring since starting my guitar journey. It only seemed appropriate I spread the wealth into this amazing community I have been able to watch grow for the same amount of time.
Holy smokes! Right from the first sight of this dude with the cigarette hanging from his lip I new this would be a real one. I think you might dig it too. It's one of those songs that offers a brief peak through a window into somebody's life. It's definitely on my list.
I know you have reacted to videos with Cory Wong before, but I can't resist. Cory, Mark, Joe, and Nate are at the top of their game with this new album. It is astounding! If you end up reacting to this, please go for the third song (Patrouille de France). I promise you will not be disappointed!
Marla Cannon Goodman said this is one of, if not the, saddest songs she's written. Beautiful simplicity pulls you in. I can't find a recording of it anywhere but she said that Alison Krauss is supposed to cut it.
