Post forgotten buzz bands pt.2

Don't know if it was Spin, Rolling Stone or NME but they were touting these guys as the 'next Nirvana', which pretty much doomed them.

They started out so strong.
Mr.brightside was a monster, it was actually believable they would be something.

they're like the strokes or the libertines in that they have a solid fanbase and can probably keep putting out records and tour and so on

human was a bona fide hit song, moreso than brightside or when you were young

(i wonder what eric roberts charged for his appearance in that video)

I'm not gonna teach your boyfriend how to dance with you is legit a fucking great pop song, perhaps even better than it's counterpart You Me Dancing
But the better twee/indie rock band of the era was hands down Los Campesinos

hot french girls, vintage guitars, fashion AND music world buzz - what more could you want?
these chicks were signed to nylon magazine's record label (!) which, needless to say, probably folded a week after it launched

mostly unmemorable, but loser and barcelona = major choonage

If you want people to be excited for the follow-up to a well received album, there has to be a follow-up.

these sorta count, i think? i got the impression that they were only 'internet big' but i might be wrong

signed to warner bros after this and put out a record that no one liked, apparently. that one's a fun little L.A. rock album though
ooooo
eeeee
feels good to be free

pic related wasn't half bad either. features classic '00s markers such as the bush-bashing mission statement song, the weepy sung-thru-a-telephone elliott smith tribute and the genre-bending IDM collab. deluxe reissue when?

it blows my mind that cosentino is some feminist pseudo-icon now. i mean out of all the fucking people you could pick. the music is so uninspired!! it kinda worked on that album but everything after has been super bland

their newest album california nights (where else) is doing remarkably well on streaming services though. sounds like bon jovi. maybe i just don't get it

solid band tho. internal wrangler was an album i loved and burned in 2000, that copy stayed at a national park bait house for year with my brother who is a decade younger than me. The kids he worked with may have loved some dumb radio in the early 200s but they also knew
