baby tsar – “Have You Ever Heard the Tragedy of Darth Plagueis the Wise?”

“Have you ever heard the tragedy of Darth Plagueis the Wise?” is somehow a song that I had not heard of until today, by the band baby tsar. For those unfamiliar, it’s a quote nerds like me are familiar with from the Star Wars universe. From what I can tell this has nothing to do with Star Wars (other than the name), but that’s okay because we love a cheeky title.
Hidden behind the name (that I’m not typing out again, even copy and paste) is a well crafted emo pop song in a similar vein as Taking Back Sunday or The Starting Line. Midwest intro, drums, blistering guitar, all perfectly attuned to the vocals. It was really nice hearing this style again, as it caught me unawares; I haven’t jammed out this hard in a long time. It was never a phase MOM!
You can hear “Have You Ever Heard the Tragedy of Darth Plagueis the Wise?” down below from the band’s YouTube Page or you can add it to your cleverly named emo tracks alongside Fall Out Boy and Hot Mulligan.
