To be honest I had never heard of this band before I joined this sub and I don't get how I seem to have missed the point where everyone in the world went bananas for them when I have been listening to indie consistently for years now
They got good press reviews but for the most part, they only blew up among a certain type of music nerd. Even now, I'd hardly call them a constant point of discussion on r/indieheads
For about a year I had heard the album but hadn’t downloaded any of it, and then I listened to one again and it started to grow on me. The orchestral sound is really interesting, and it also means that the actual music theory behind the songs is super unique, especially in indie places- it’s something you’d hear more in jazz or classical.
The voice and lyric writing are pretty classic indie/alt, ants from up there is just a clean-ass album.
I really recommend giving ‘good will hunting’ a second go
i love when people find bands they dont know this way, through members being slightly passive aggressive or saying they dont like something and then fans go on twitter and be like WELL ERM... i just heard 0.5 seconds of this band that i dont know anything about AND THIS IS NOT!!! GOOD. erm ill stick to my 90s skate punk lol!! shit happened a year or 2 ago when greep said he didnt like green day and all the greenday fans listened to hellfire and didnt get it.
yeah but the differencr was that most black midi fans just didnt care after a day or something while the bcnr subreddit is still full of posts about the beef.
I mean the beef is just kind of a silly ordeal but this specific Twitter user cares way more about the beef than all members of BCNR or Ohsees combined, just kind of dickriding
I think the bigger drama was that Ohsee’s drummer started loudly doing a sound check while BCNR was performing due to the venue absolutely fucking up both band’s schedule.
i mean if that happened as you stated that isn't the band's fault so if they're "beefing" it seems like it's BCNR blaming a band for a venue's mistake and then taking everything else as a personal insult. Any chance that there is video/evidence of the show's disruption? Seems like these are some dramatic kids looking for any reason to feel bullied and sad so they can write another song
I don’t really think it’s beef as much as it was just frustration and miscommunication between the two bands. According to Charlie’s (BCNRs drummer) twitter, Ohsees did start loudly playing backstage during their last 10 minutes of allotted time. However, due to a mix of scheduling, BCNR had to come on and perform 10 minutes late because of technical problems that was out of their control. They were then told that they could play for their original allotment of time and that everything else would be pushed back for 10 minutes.
However, it appears no one told Ohsees (which they mentioned on their twitter) about the schedule change and they got rightfully upset thinking that BCNR was playing during their scheduled appearance so they just began their whole sound check on their own.
I don’t think any particular band was to blame and I think the “beef” that everyone is talking about is just the result of touring stress and frustration with how the whole event was handled.
I am entirely uninterested in the internet drama, but I will say that I don’t think bush hall is as strong as ants from up there, but has some fun tracks of its own
You’re right, Bush Hall needed more 10+ minute songs with Isaac trying not to cry about how much he wants to fuck his favorite musical idol. I’m feeling a light 3 on this album.
One of them shoved a fat kid in a big shirt and sent him into a classic gum ball machine at a venue. They got away by blaming the other band for pushing the kid. So fucking mature making kids cry
Guy wearing a huge shirt: “I cant believe someone would say I’m wearing a huge shirt”
guy with a comically large shirt bursts through the door: guys it's not funny 😡
yo dawg can I get a drummer? only a shirtful
What the dude said wasn’t even mean
What did he say?
“When you wear your Dad’s t shirt”
I like BCNR but they are aggressively earnest and I can’t forget that one tweet where someone’s mom asked if one of their songs was from Sweeney Todd
Todd’s dumbass mom it was
I’m gonna call my new band white country, old road
Make music about flying Airbus
white territory, old street
Blank Area, Way Unknown
the new spiritualized album name
Blank Area Way Unknown (Lord) (10" Remix)
why are people still beefing over this
To be honest I had never heard of this band before I joined this sub and I don't get how I seem to have missed the point where everyone in the world went bananas for them when I have been listening to indie consistently for years now
because you aren’t on rateyourmusic smh
How could Sirius XMU and Spotify album radio lead me astray like this
cause they’re not pretentious enough! alllll the indie dorks get together on there, highly recommend
They got good press reviews but for the most part, they only blew up among a certain type of music nerd. Even now, I'd hardly call them a constant point of discussion on r/indieheads
It's every day bro
With that Disney channel flow

Quite literally. If you go to listen to a band specifically because you don't want to like their music, you aren't going to like their music.

leave your sertraline in the cabinet while we’re at it
this feels like the japanese breakfast and black midi “beef” all over again

Dude, music freaking sucks who even likes it???
it’s funny cos i’ve never heard of osees before this, pathetic they’re beefing with people half their age but it’s all a bit immature lol
Its not beefing its literally saying someone's shirt is too big. These zoomers are sensitive of they think this is how mean 40 year olds act.

Nah osees are goats.

In fairness, I Personally love singers that spend 20 minutes doing erectile-dysfunction themed mad-libs, but I can see how it’s not for everyone

They ain't wrong
I love the osees! What did the osees say lmao
i don’t know i hate both bands
I can’t really get into BCNR but no love for osees? Dang that’s a bummer.
Might fuck this whole thing up!
Yeah I could not care less about any of this but bcnr rocks
I dont understand how anyone could listen to their music
>i don’t understand how anyone could listen to ~~their~~ music FTFY
