      Why there is so fucking many dislikes on a video. Ratio is terrible.

      My first impression, too. I think I'll go spin Remain in Light for the thousandth time.

      LCD is good but too robotic for me, but I like Parquet Courts whole Clashy way of incorporating influences into their sound to make them more then what they started as

      LCD Soundsystem was also heavily inspired by the Heads. All goes back to them lol

    *Intro Plays*
    And you may find yourself
    Living in a shotgun shack
    And you may find yourself
    In another part of the world
    And you may find yourself
    Behind the wheel of a large automobile
    And you may find yourself in a beautiful house
    With a beautiful wife
    And you may ask yourself, well
    How did I get here?

    Preoccupations goes darkwave, Parquet Courts goes new-wave
    2018 is the year of post-punk bands not being post-punk

      With all these great bands within post punk we are living in a golden age and I’m loving it

    • @0412lennon
      @0412lennon Před 6 lety +2

      Xxxx Xxxx imitating something great can’t be a bad thing. But if that’s not ur cup of joe go listen to Ed Sheeran

    • @0412lennon
      @0412lennon Před 6 lety +16

      Xxxx Xxxx but to answer ur question....when the true golden age of post punk was in 1979-late 80s. I wasn’t around or at least old enough to appreciate it. I still remember the post punk revival of the early 2000s and that was a great time. That 2000 era got the limelight while the golden age of post punk was something of an underground thing compared to the new wave sound that was happening. This new era of post punk with bands like Preoccupations, protomartyr, parquet courts, ought, iceage, and others won’t get the heavy limelight the strokes, interpol, etc. did. To me this is the second great golden age of post punk. Not post punk revival.

    • @aveytare2185
      @aveytare2185 Před 6 lety +1

      John Smith it's like their "Who Is It?" repetitive but it's got a killer hook. The go go bell though gives it a speaking in tongues sound. There's a song on that record, I believe the second to last one that uses that typical go go bell pattern

    • @hotdog_taylor
      @hotdog_taylor Před 5 lety

      If you pull up any new wavey post punkish band that has put out any good records in the past ten years you will see a stupid ass comment like this on their page. You do realize there are more bands out there that make you cool other than the talking heads right?

    I'm wide awake
    Mind so woke 'cause my brain never pushed the brakes
    I'm wide awake
    Eyes so open that my vision is as sharp as a blade
    I'm wide awake
    Movin' and groovin' and I ain't ever losin' the pace
    I'm wide awake
    Mind so woke 'cause my brain is as sharp as a blade
    I'm wide awake
    I'm wide awake
    I'm wide awake
    I'm wide awake
    I'm wide awake
    I'm wide awake
    Mind so woke 'cause my brain never pushed the brakes
    I'm wide awake
    Eyes so open that my vision is as sharp as a blade
    I'm wide awake
    Movin' and groovin' and I ain't ever losin' the pace
    I'm wide awake
    Mind so woke 'cause my brain never pushed the brakes
    I'm wide awake
    I'm wide awake
    I'm wide awake
    I'm wide awake
    I'm wide awake
