suzukieh. they were one of my favorite bands as a teen. but i realized its like.
their first 2 albums they were like millenials parents played a lot of graceland, graceland is a great and enjoyable album that people across generations love, so they did indie pop graceland and it was good. then they decided to wholesale rip off buddy holly for their third album, which was one of my favorite albums at the time. these days i'm deeply familiar with holly's work and a few of those songs come off as pale imitations, but its still a good record.
their 4th album i didn't like at all. they couldn't sell that laid back california rock, the combination of laurel canyon, the dead, sublime etc. that they went for, it just didn't feel believable to me at all. Ezra didn't sell it and they are far too east coast and preppy for that sound to work for them IMO. that 4th album was pretty disappointing and kinda recontextualized their whole discography for me, made me feel like they were buttoned up posers. idk i think they are pretty overated nowadays.
Ezra has since made Neo Yokio and has a baby with Rashida Jones. If that's being a poser then sign me up

To this day I don't get VW's hype. Like don't get me wrong they got some songs that are great but most of their music sounds like some s*** you'd hear on a cruise
it might be bc (apart from growing up without money and not being white) I have some similarities to them as far as education, so I can relate to the preppy east coast s***. "you wanted good schools, friends with pools" ... "the kids don't stand a chance" basically being about how people go to top schools and want to change the world then all come out and work for McKinsey and end up being Pete Buttigieg (altho he might actually change the world)
also their lyrics and melodies are really good. there just isn't really anything else like them. but it might be the same way I liked the TV show GIRLS cuz I knew annoying rich white girls just like Lena Dunham / Hannah Horvath. If I didn't have that cultural context then maybe I wouldn't have appreciated it
Jun 22, 2021Never listened to em
Jun 22, 2021yup

please put me on to any song that you think is the most impressionable if not Beatles-tier bc ive tried too many times to get into VW but don't get the hype
Hannah Hunt might be the greatest song of the past decade. Or maybe Step is. Obvious Bicycle is also good. Diplomat's Son and I Think Ur a Contra are also really good. Harmony Hall and This Life
But I'd just listen chronologically or listen to Contra.
I didn't even really listen to guitar music before them. I mostly listened to rap / r&b. there is also a chance that they are just one of those things like Bon Iver where you either get it or you don't. or you have to live it, like to go a fancy school and have a painful breakup or live on the east coast to really get it
same way u have to have "a certain level" of intelligence to like J. Cole
