Philadelphia-bred punk band emerges from the basement scene with melodic and emotional songs capturing youthful sentiment with mature execution. Nick Morrison, Ian Amidon, Scott Stitzer and Sean Reilly play music "because they fall short in almost everything else." - Milkboy

Nick (vocals & guitar) is the original “mumblr”. While demoing the songs to the rest of the band, he would mumble melodies over the music because he hadn't yet written lyrics. He says he has a really bad problem with mumbling in his day-to-day life and liked the idea of a person who softly talks to themselves, either because they have no one to listen or they think nobody cares.

In the fall of 2013, they wrote, recorded and released 4 pieces (Corner Store EP, White Jesus/Black God, Sorry Daddy, Bang Bang EP) solidifying their unique, self-branded sound, "fuzz punk."

Their full-length debut Full of Snakes was released by Fleeting Youth Records on September 16, 2014.

Got It
Mumblr Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Born strange, I think I'm really honest
but I won't change unless I think I need it
so I won't change, been finding where I fit
I think I'm post-race, unless I'm just an idiot

I'll invite you to my room all the time

Cuz I got it if you want it

Okay, I think I'm all about it
and I won't stay and be the one without it

and I'm Full of Snakes but what the hell is that
it means I won't take it unless I think I need it

Overall Meaning

The opening line in Mumblr's song "Got It" is a powerful assertion of self-awareness. The singer acknowledges that they are different, even "born strange," yet also deeply honest. This honesty is a defining trait of the singer and they will not change unless they feel that it's necessary. This self-assuredness is reflected in the next line when the singer confidently states that they won't change. The singer then goes on to talk about discovering their place in the world, an endeavor in which they feel they've made progress. However, there's a hint of self-doubt when they wonder if perhaps they're just an "idiot" who doesn't really understand how post-race they are.

The refrain of the song, "I got it if you want it," is an invitation that is repeated multiple times throughout the song. It's unclear what "it" is exactly, which lends a sense of mystery to the lyrics. The invitation can be interpreted in different ways depending on the listener's perspective. It could be a sexual invitation, an offer of emotional support, or even a statement of artistic prowess. The singer seems confident that they have something to offer, something that others may want or need.

The middle section of the song highlights the singer's willingness to take risks in pursuit of what they want. They won't stay on the sidelines and be "the one without it," indicating a fear of missing out. However, the singer is also cautious and discerning. They won't accept just anything and are "Full of Snakes" when it comes to something they don't truly believe in. This could be interpreted as a metaphor for the singer's guardedness, or as a warning to others that attempting to deceive or manipulate them will not be successful.
