The bass hits like a sucker punch

Can’t wait to spin this album on a summer day and get absolutely hammered with my friends.

Some sites have the line "We're stuck and it's after dark, on Megaton Mile". I'm 99% sure the line is "It's darkest after dawn, on Megaton Mile". You can actually clearly hear "It's darkest after dawn" on the final chorus section at the end of the song. The song seems to be heavily inspired by the film "Miracle Mile", which is about a group of people trying to flee LA with premature knowledge about an imminent massive nuclear attack on the United States. Obvious spoilers, but the film takes place before dawn, and the film ends directly at dawn with the sun rising and the missiles streaking over the sky, proving the main character correct as multiple "flashing lights" start erupting, signaling the detonation of the warheads. "It's darkest after dawn" fits with the ending of the film and the song. The world is ending, the narrator of the song is close enough to see the "flashing lights" of nuclear warheads in the distance. The film ends during the dawning of a new day, but the world literally ends on it for those on "Miracle Mile", and the world will forever be dark after this dawn.

Outer Banks brought me here...nice summer groove... nice job. Got a modest Motown early 70s feel

nothing quite like your ears undergoing a new local natives song, mucho gracias fellas

thank you outer banks

How is this not at 10 million views right now? Watch, they're going to feature this song in the end credits of some popular TV show and thousands of people are gonna come flooding to this video.

This bassline is TASTY 😋

Every single song released so far has been fantastic. I think this will be your best album.

This song makes me want to get my life back together lol man is this great!❤

Climbing up through the window Up to the rooftop (Up to the rooftop) The seagulls swarm on the railroad All we could do is watch (All we could do is watch) Hit like a sucker punch And let your new work come Tell me what I could've done Holding me close in the ending In a flashing light We're stuck and it's after dark On Megaton Mile No alarms or pill riders No, teary-eyed anchors (No, teary-eyed anchors) It took so long for it all To change with just a word (To change with just a word) Abandoned cars on the freeway A terracotta rush hour You heard me calling out your name Holding me close in the ending In a flashing light We're stuck and it's after dark On Megaton Mile January came and went early In a flashing light We're stuck and it's after dark On Megaton Mile You said it was beautiful As much as it was terrifying Holding me close in the ending In a flashing light We're stuck and it's after dark On Megaton Mile January came and went early In a flashing light We're stuck and it's after dark On Megaton Mile

Okay so I have watched outer banks 3 times now and I always liked this song when ever it was season 1 episode 5 midsummers and I fell in love with this song and it took me no joke 40 minutes to find it it’s been a great day

Have you tried not releasing a straight banger lately??

this album is it for them... i can feel it. everyone's going to know who they are now!!!

Crush recommended this to me. Now I can't stop thinking about me and her going on a road trip when I play this song

this song makes the end of the world sound beautiful

Retro sound but feels so fresh. Nice job boys.

Hey, this was playing in the car wash last night

Just wow. I just closed my eyes and the song just ..... 👌

Powerful! I'm hallucinating!! Come back to Mexico! 🙏🏼

Great sound!! Never can get over there boys!!!

After listening thru the album a couple times, this song stands out. Fucking soulful and melodic. That bass sound kills!

Their most underrated song imo, and thanks to 'new music friday' from Spotify to let me accidentally play this song last year.

outer banks brought me here

This song restores hope in living

OBX tune ⛈🤿🏄🏻‍♀️🏄🏻

Their music is art, I love you guys

Piece of art. 🖤

love this track!!

Since the day this album came out, I've been listening to it 2-3 times a night! Might be one of my favorite collections of music ever.

I just randomly ran into this on Spotify, never heard of this outer banks but boy am I glad I found this song

This band just keeps getting better and better year after year. Perfect show..them and City and Colour.

I’d die for this song ❤

So ready to play this on repeat all summer long- the new album I can’t

Love this so much

OBX -- new fave! Thank you!!

outer banks!!! :))

I love this song! ❤

0:39 outer banks people

Great vibe.

Discovered this song a day ago and Ive listened to it over hundreds of times

this song is so good 😭 it needs a music video

Oh my goodness my new fav I can't stop send help

🆕🎧 "Megaton Mile" debuted at #18 on the New Alternative 40 Chart this week!

Ready for the summer baby!!!

I can't even count how many times I've listened to this track since it dropped. See you boys in Atlanta June 11!

Love it! I fell off from Local Natives for a few years, and I'm delighted to see their music is progressing!

I feel like this is gonna be a great record!!

Coolest dressers and awesome musicians

This music makes me so sleepy! 😴

Potential sex music that could block squeaky bed noises, gasps, labored exhalations, and occasional loud moans.

Love that bass way way up front in the mix

I’m into it!!

Heard this on a tv show. Had to check it out. Super dope. Rhythmically and Melodically groovy with a twist of freestyle. That, "Just let it flow" vibe. Nice

Anyone come after "The Outer Banks"

heard this in Outer Banks great show

This album is going to slap.

Got me dancing again...

This album rules

January came and went early...

These guys are incredible - Violet Street is AOTY

muy bueno

outer banks people?

ShAWN Pawped OFF ON THISS ONE

Spotify brought me here before Netflix did.

We stargaze after dawn on Megaton Mile ;)

So much delightful 50's 60's inspiration displayed here. I really could hop out on the rooftop to watch a nuclear disaster to this song.

♥

pov: did you remember obx

That baseline 😮

Wow

💜💜💜💜💜💜

About 1 minute in...JAMMING

👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼

rewatching outer banks brought me here

Wow I'm listening to this song for the first time and DAMN i'm really surprised. Very pop-ish, dunno if this has a mainstream vocation or anything. Anyway, this band is weird and great and i need time to comprehend this song

I’m doing a dance to this for lyrical and it took me so long to find oml hahahaha

Favorite song off the new album so far 😄

Bought me here too-obx

Can't be loyal ta the dream

Got here from AK🙏

Do any of their other songs sound like this...?

Midsummers :))

Outer banks gang where you at

Heard this in a Starbucks I was working at last year

Kelcey! Killing it! I have a feeling the bois were at least partially inspired by Cold War Kids' Miracle Mile :)

why does this track sound like it's cut off in the middle?

Idk what the fuck outer banks is, David Dean Burkhart brought me here.

This was in outerbanks and I didn't even remember it 😭😭😭😭

Not gonna lie... they kinda had me at 4:10

Underrated as fuck tho

COME TO BRAZIL 💚💛

I'm literally secons in and I already love it

Shout out fyf2010. Memories

Come back to México 🇲🇽

Me thinking it was Taylors vocals this whole time but it was Kelceys

Is Kelcey using autotune or any vocoder/vocal effects?

So I'm sitting here listening to the Earthbound OST and the song Megaton Walk is p much the exact drum beat in this song. Coincidence? I think not.

I'm getting Tillian from Dance Gavin Dance vibes

hurry up and make the video, plz! @=`^{
