Grizzly Bear is insipid crap for lame douchebags who go to RISD

Why does this band get so much hate? I don't understand.

They're trendy. My 15 year old brother is the only legit fan I can think of and even he afmits that they aren't all that great past yellow house

Mainstream indie is an easy target and it doesn't take much effort to insult the music or its listeners.

I don't know if Grizzly Bear suck or not, though.

Grizzly bear are so strange in that sense. They're quite popular yet no one talks about them. They're not quite modest mouse popularility, not even halfway but even that considered barely anyone talks about them despite them being huge around MPP era

I think they're in that first awkward phase of being out of style, before you can accept that times have changed and appreciate it in its own context. Like, looking at OP's image makes me want to go back to Portland in 2009 and beat the shit out of my roommate. The wounds of the era are too new, we all need more time.

I kind of get what you mean... I think?

When I think of GB I feel a sort of, embarrassed nostalgia. Like I miss the times when I was into them but I know they are not as good as I once thought.

Are they the my chemical romance of the new generation or something

Fleet Foxes dropped; while still not a great band, they were definitely more than pretty voices on less than compelling hooks.

I can't listen to their music at all, and i don't know how anyone can

>>64171456
because it's insanely beige music for "indie rocker" jackasses

>>64171838
yeah embarrassed nostalgia, I like that.

Trust me, I'm not trying to defend Indie folk, its one of the worst things ever created, but this grizzly bear vs fleet foxes rivalry is so one sided. Fleet foxes have like 1 good song and did the whole stupid nu male romanticizing muh country side with pretty standard everything. GB was very accurate at "" postmodern"" and whilst not always engaging tried new shit and dipped into freak folk. What the hell did fleet foxes do besides strum g chords over beach boys vocals

BC its inoffensive or the other way around? Mix of both?

>>64173619
FF have two great albums, GB has like half of one.

>>64170453
Didn't this whole band die in a car accident or something?

>>64174841
that was other unbearably white 2009core buzzband called women

>this indie pop shit

i dont know where the fuck you got your ideas about RISD kids but you would be banished in art school for listening to this low-brow shit. they are incredibly elitist and would never listen to a consumerist band like this. everyone at RISD listens to harsh noise, eai, and art music.
