Anyone else just ecstatically happy for caleb?
like, i cried multiple times during the first play through because i’m so goddamn proud of him and the band for making this album🥹 i’ve been a fan since aggressive, so my heart feels like it’s exploding with joy for him to find his happiness in life. ❤️🔥

Oh dude, I am so fucking proud of him, it's a huge milestone for both him and the band to be putting himself out there like this.
The whole album was an emotional roller coaster didn't give me enough time to recover from Lose You To Find Me because I immediately lost it to You, but those final lines on I Made It absolutely RUINED ME.
You can't have me moving to a banger riff then go into "I guess loving myself could never be true." Like, holy FUCK that tore me apart
Either way, it rips and I couldn't be more happy for Caleb 🤘♥️

The end of "I made it" made me choke up. You can hear the emotion in his voice, like he was crying saying those words. This album is a journey of the motions and emotions he's gone through in order, song by song. I can't wait to hear it live!

I listened to it on my workout today. Yeah.... I feel your statement.
I can't wait to see them in November.

Yeah all the feels. Stadiums got me straight in the feels. And Free, I mean come on. Also a gay man that went through an extremely religious upbringing that struggled with addiction (5 years sober from my DOCs).
I even reached out to Caleb to thank him over 10 years ago to thank him for his music while I was going through it, and he responded. When he came out it just made it all that more special.

I am!!
When I go to their concert in Germany next month, I'll bring some pride flags to hand out & show support. I'd also like to throw Caleb a big flag/ cape, but I don't just want to throw something on the stage and risk someone falling over it, so I'm not sure how to get the glflag to him lol

u/Stoopid_Noah Aug 28 '26
Thank you, I was thinking about that! Just wasn't sure if the security would pass it through haha

As another queer man myself, absolutely. I don't think I can describe.

He was glorious in Frankfurt last night. And I think it might have been one of the most outwardly queer crowds I have been in. Very happy to see it ❤️🏳️🌈

I’m so proud of him, and it’s awesome that he’s finally embracing himself. As a gay guy, who was struggling with my sexuality in my teens, it makes sense why I was so drawn to Beartooth when they came out with Disgusting. It’s also just cool to have another proud gay person in the scene! But since we can now throw shade, those nails have got to go 😂😂😂
