Heart-on-sleeve emo meets stoner charm in Best Buds, the debut album that made Mom Jeans everyone’s favorite cry-laugh rock band.

Originally released in 2016, this record is pure DIY catharsis - messy, funny, and painfully relatable in all the right ways. Now spinning on gorgeous gold vinyl, it sounds even warmer (and just as emotionally devastating).

From the punchy opener “Scott Pilgrim vs. My GPA” to the slow-burn sincerity of “Edward 40hands”, every track feels like a diary entry scribbled between hangouts and heartbreaks. “Danger Can’t” and “Death Cup” deliver those loud-quiet-loud crescendos that defined midwest emo, while “Vape Nation” and “Poor Boxer Shorts” showcase the band’s offbeat humor and self-aware swagger. It’s the soundtrack to sleeping on your friend’s couch, drinking cheap beer, and feeling all your feelings.

This Gold Edition LP pairs shimmering color with rich, full remastering that brings out every jangly guitar and raw vocal crack. Housed in a sturdy sleeve with the album’s iconic flower artwork, it’s a must-have for fans of Modern Baseball, Tiny Moving Parts, and the whole 2010s emo revival wave.

Best Buds proves that sometimes being a little sad and a little silly makes for the best kind of rock record. Honest, loud, and full of heart - just the way Mom Jeans intended.
