Agree w many bands already listed. I’d add:
Bonny Doon - sublime slacker rock, 2 lead vocalists who put their own twists on their lead songs. Can get heavier when they want.
Hot Chip - finally saw them live May 2022 after listening to them for a decade+, and it was one of my favorite shows of all time. The fact that they aren’t as big as LCD is mind boggling to me...
Phenomenal band that deserves more love. Just saw them in Pomona opening for Fontaines D.C. and they were fantastic.
You can also check out the bands recs on this very platform. Highly recommend.
any release by them but particularly their latest drop
saw them open for indigo de souza a week ago and here i am 50 scrobbles and counting later. obsessed with the gritty, sludgy stuff juxtaposed with the vulnerable, intricate stuff.
Get a haircut, get rid of some clothes you haven’t worn in years, get a new houseplant, get in touch with the changing season, get grounded, get stoned, get in touch with some old friends, get some ice cream, get going
Friends you met out in the neighborhood at a bar or park or cafe or wherever a couple times and struck up a rapport with.
You don’t have eachother’s phone numbers, no social media info.
I have a couple friends like this and it’s been such a nice social change up. Always a pleasant surprise to bump into them out and about.
