Indie bands?

I’ve fallen off the indie band thing for a while now but here are my reccs from 2018: - For Tracey Hyde (pretty big name but nevertheless) - Silica Gel (also not sure if they are indie anymore…) - Night Off - THORNAPPLE - Bye Bye Badman - SURL - ADOY (as the other person recommended fr) - Se So Neon (I’m pretty sure they’re a big name now) - Shadow Community (not sure if their a band actually) - Mid-air thief - Parannoul (Also another big name I think) - Woes (because I’m from Singapore so I have to mention them) - Bakers in Space (Singapore again) - Subsonic Eye (Singapore again!) Lastly a special mention, this band is still active but they’ve changed members completely and deleted their old YouTube videos… I loved their initial songs: KangKang/Kang “I think, it’s weird pose.”: https://open.spotify.com/album/2v7FnKXBtvTT6YtlsusywF?si=mxlJWou9R_KpjFzmW0Ld5A

Shoegaze Anti-Hits of Today

I can't stand music discourse—particularly of the "rock is dead" or "rock is back" variety—because I find that nobody has decent taste, and often they're not even aware of the best bands making music now. I feel like most adults have a period of their life when they discover a lot of music and then they give up searching. I'm relentless when it comes to discovering new favorite bands. I don't think there has ever been a time with as much incredible and timeless guitar-driven music as right now. Nothing, Teenage Wrist, Soft Kill, Ruby Haunt, Ski Lodge, cursetheknife, Jorge Elbrecht, Narrow Head, Sports Coach, Gold Star, Choir Boy, Better Person, Private World, Peel Dream Magazine, Salem, Heavenward, Broken Head, Sweet Trip, Valleyheart, Sculpture Club, Winter, Deafheaven, No Joy, Sheer Mag, Day Wave, Roseville, Kitten, Glare, Amusement Parks On Fire, Soft Blue Shimmer, Black Marble, Provoker, Anonymous Club, Holiday Sidewinder, House of Harm, Superbloom, Softcult, Tigers Jaw, Second Skin, Totally Enormous Extinct Dinosaurs, NewDad, Failure, Beachy Head, The Chain Gang of 1974, Cindy, Seer Believer, Fearing, and VR Sex are the names of some current bands you should probably be listening to that come to mind. And Drab Majesty's The Demonstration, a melodramatic tragedy pageant in honor of the Heaven's Gate suicides, remains the best album of the last decade. If you want something more electro, go for Real Lies, these two Islington dudes who make the most tasteful club pop since the Pet Shop Boys. Their recent single "Late Arcades" was written as an ode to their old schoolmate, Richard Spencer, who vanished years ago. That shit makes me cry.  (Especially in the car.)

This app

Dunno how Tyler cracked the code but somehow I’m looking at a feed of gratitude lists instead of doom scrolling passive agressive buckshot that wants me to kill myself. This is the best thing on the internet since tumblr.
