If you are or were ever a fan of Good Charlotte and you didn't know they released a new album titled "Youth Authority," then you've likely been living under a rock. Not only did they just release a new album after about a four year hiatus, but they also joined the ranks of the notorious "punk rock summer camp," The Vans Warped Tour, for the first time in 12 years alongside 80+ other punk rock bands. (Hopefully you were able to attend.)

I don't know about you but the musical growth throughout the years of one of my favorite bands growing up has been an interesting process, and I still love them.

1. "Little Things" was incredibly easy to relate to while you were in Middle/High School because "this song is dedicated to every kid who ever got picked last in gym class, to every kid who never had a date to no school dance, to everyone who's ever been called a freak, this is for you."

2. While you loved their Self-Titled album "Good Charlotte", "The Young and The Hopeless" was where it was at.

3. The original "Hold On" video was so heart wrenching and in one way or another you were able to relate to one of the stories they shared.

4. "The Anthem" was your anthem.

5. "Girls don't like boys girls like cars and money, boys will laugh at girls when they're not funny." #Truth

6. You still know all of the words to every song off "The Young and The Hopeless" album.

7. You bought both "The Chronicles of Life and Death - Life" and "The Chronicles of Life and Death - Death."

8. The "I Just Wanna Live" music video featuring The Food Group was arguably one of the weirdest Good Charlotte music videos ever.

9. "The River" was likely your favorite song off of "Good Morning Revival," especially if you were also an "Avenged Sevenfold" fan.

10. You watched GC TV regularly, especially when the band was on tour.

11. You were super excited that one time they were featured in the Donkey Konga 2 commercial.

12. They convinced you that 1979 was a good, good year, even if you weren't born yet.

13. No matter how old you get you'll always remember that it's GC Forever.

Also, if you haven't listened to "Youth Authority" yet and you're hesitant, I highly suggest giving it a listen. You just might be pleasantly surprised.
