Facebook is a popular social networking site where humans connect to share their lives' together. In addition, conspiracy theorists say that Facebook is a datamining experiment constructed by the CIA. N e ways... facebook is mainly a place where sweet people share their thoughts, consumer interests, and personal information. A lot of people like to talk about new indie buzzbands on facebook to make their personal brands seem like they are 'fun', 'in-the-know' human beings who are on the bleeding edge of culture.
It seems like a few free spirited entry levs had a kewl convo about a series of indie buzzbands. Have yall heard about any of these bands? Do u want to be a 'hippie' and listen to them at a music festival or what?
At first, some bro is like '<3 Pashy Pit... wanna be a hippie and listen 2 them.'
Then some other alt is like 'yea! let's wear tie dye... Gonna put this on our bucket list!'
Then they vow to listen to Vampire Weekend, MGMT, and some band called 'Neon Trees', which must be some sort of Neon Indian for mtv2 tweens band.
NOTE: Just listened to the Neon Trees, they sound 'hella gay'
N e ways, then 1 alt is like 'check out this band called Natalie Portman's Shaved Head. effing loves it!'
Then the other entry lev is like 'huh? what a weird band name. Cannot be forreal.'
The alt has to be like, 'no, forreal, look it up on wikipedia_space/music.html because they are a real band.'
At the end, every1 seems mad pumped to be alive, sharing buzzbands in the modern indie era. One day, we will all go to a music festival together, drop acid, and listen to synthy, whimsical indie bands while wearing 'hippie' gear.
Do yall talk about buzzbands on facebook?
Have u heard of MGMT/Neon Pit/Passion Weekend/ Vampire Trees / Indian Passionate Weekend?
Do u h8 when entry levelers 'ruin' once-relevant buzzbands, or is it a natural part of the band life-cycle that u have accepted?
R u pissed at 2k10 and the lack of authentic buzzbands?
N e ways, gotta go listen to some Neon Trees. Hope they collab with Passion Pit and write 'the queerest synth pop alt song' in the history of the world.
See yall later,
the neon tree bro's haircut
Comments
ha ha ha wow! cant believe there is a band called 'natalie portmans shaved head' yall! indie music is so quirky but kewl
@brian, very accurate social commentary
@brian, Best. First. Ever.
@brian, You have set the golden standard for firsties. May the sun never set on your waves.
@Broseidon, Wavves, you mean.
@Broseidon, amen brotha amen.
@brian, first
@brian, Ya'll just got infinity alt points for that sick firstty.
@Alex, are you guys serious, is not replying "first" to a post really enough to warrant unlimited praise? @brian that was funny but @hro commenters in general you guys are fucking retarded
@mountain dew green label sound social media brand representative,
clearly as some 'effing suit' you do not get the ironic complexities of the hro comment section.
@brian, r u joking? should i laugh? i'm confused a fuck as to whether this bro is full of irony or shit
h8 u facebook teens
@AltBro, *tweens. teens don't exist n e more
@treeman, H8 tween than, thaks treebro
@AltBro, foreal passion pit sux yall
@steve gheyoki,
kinda liked his ep (when 'they' were still 'he')
@Bro'd Out,
feel hella entry-lvl now, how will I 'authentic' again?
@Bro'd Out,
you were bein ironic with that lil slip up
duh...
@Bro'd Out, yeah bro i respect your humor
@Bro'd Out
<3 y'all, life feels kinda okay again.
Thirdsies?
i give 4.2 facebooks
love neon trees, soo edgy looking.
Fourth!
disgusting.
this is bucket list COMMENT:]
unfortch natalie portmans shaved head changed their name 4 some lame reason ithink
at least i am glad they didn't 'completely ruin' the neion indians 4 me. close call w/ neon trees though.
@glittler, its brite futures or smthn now. Don't really "give a shit" tho
lol @ neon trees re 'hella gay'
@Freon Steez, <3 CRLS
do y'all prefer neon indian or neon trees ?
h8 u facebook.
@brobabe, i prefer max indian
@brobabe, prefer here comes the indian
@steve gheyoki, oic wut u did thur
@steve gheyoki, mad props for
@steve gheyoki, mad props for the ref., album's all noizzz and avey/panda yelling, don't know how anyone can like it...must explain why you like it? [via Being individual]
@brobabe, I prefer dead indians
@Anbro Jackson,
I prefer Here We Go Indians.
@Brost-Nothing, totally prefer Indian in the Cupboard
@brobabe, i prefer Apache Chief, Inuk-Chuk!!!
Erasure is the gheyest of synthpop bands. Franky Goes to Hollywood said to them"damn, I have AIDs and that's the gheyest thing ever.
If anyone could outghey them, it would be Passion Pit and the tubby dudes + chick drummer band up thar.
@mat, you are my hero.
feel like these are just some tweens who listen to jbiebs and are trying to enter alt culture via former buzzbands. feel disappointed that these tweens are becoming their fanbase. feel worried that i'm going to start seeing entry level alts at pandabro shows. worried about how much longer pandabro and the ancos can stay 'relevant'. wanna go back to 2k8, when dressing like an indian was still alt. wanna chill at a vampy weekend show, back when they were just another buzzband[via nostalgia].
@enter my gardens, Why not go back to 2k5, when vampy weekend and mgmt were just a bunch of preppies in college and Animal Collective wasn't yet mainstream via p4k? Everyone listened to fast noisy bands that wore masks and guitars that sounded like lasers!!!!!!
@enter my gardens, there isn't any nostalgia in the altoshpere any longer. being alt is a hard knock life [via the austin powers remix], and to remain alt, we must forge deeper into more and more relevant music, therefore abandoning our past musical influences to discover new grounds, not unlike nomads, until they are forgotten by the mainstream machine that tries to stay 'coolio bro'. this is the end of just being 'alt'. this is the era of the 'nomad alt'.
@this comment is my thesis, Mind blown man!11!
@this comment is my thesis, <3333 you made me feel like a tauren from WoW
@enter my gardens, the sound is getting so cold-sara-keane-wave-anberlini-tegan-casio-weekend-play feel like getting what i expect every time reduces my anxiety.
Neon Tree Bro's formula is wise. Come up with a bunch of different vocal 'treatments' for the same backing track, then just hire some Alts to be in the videos and wait to see which one 'hits'. Also wise to cash in on the popular hippie era of tie-dies and rolling in the flowers [via 1983].
Is there really any difference between 'Animal' and '1983'? At least the girl didn't get regulated to the 'chick keyboardist' role.
might steal carles idea and form a buzzband called Indian Passionate Weekend. feel like that name would make my band 'hella marketable' [via facebook tweens]
@chillwavvin, what bout passionate indian weekend?
Tomas Haake, eat your heart out. The drummer from neon trees has so many layered polyrhythms it sounds like straight 4/4.
feel like that Paolomo bro stole some of the neon treeses' thunder...
just found new hippie alt band, been around for a while but they're gettin big it's called fish i hear there r lots of flowers, acid and neon indians at these shows
@joey, YEA BRO I JUST HURD OF THIS HYPPE BAND CALLED FISH AS WELL THEY SOUND LIKE KEWL.THE LINED BONERROO LAST YR .THERE WAS ANOTHER BAND CALLED PHISH BEFORE THEY BROKE UP IN 04 THE USED TO BLO A KEY OF KOKAINE B4 EACH SHO
did she say it was a "bucket list" status b/c after a comment like that, the only thing left is 2 kill urself?
if that's a correct use of the term, i think i just typed 1.
@wes branderson, <3 u bro
wait...this seems "meta"...like they "get it"
@Altso Frightened, Worried about Crls.
@American Psychbro, no worries bro. it was the robot
@Altso Frightened, i disagree, bro. sound like lil tweens 2 me.
wish i had some kewl alt friends on facebook :-(
@torbro y moi, ME TOO DUDE, SOMEHOW IM FRIENDS WITH MY PARENTS ON FACYB.. MAYBE YOU CAN FRIEND ME AND WE'LL ALT OUT TOGATHEER VIA WALLPOSTS
@lil BRO, yeah parents and/or elementary, highschool and college friends that turned or stayed mainstream. def disappointing. Needs me some alt facebros seriusly bad. :/
Vocalist for Neon Trees totally doing his best to sound like MUSE, most FUCKING ANNOYING faux-wannabe-alt fave band. Idiots at my work love to brag abt listening to Muse and coming off edgy. Fuck.
That videotape effect gets real fucking tired after 15 secs. Fuck you, director of 1983 video. Whatevs they were like 1yr old in 1983.
peterick wentz + jimmy tamBROrello + dan deacon = most epic collab since 7/29/10. will chart @ #1 lolzjkz
'take a bite of my <3 2nite'. sounds like sum twilight bullshit up in here
@brosciutto, hee hee isnt it on the twilight soundtrack or somethin? my lil sister likes 2 rock out to it on 'sirius hits 1' and the only way they could find out such an alt band like neon trees would be via twilight
why is it that anytime someone talks about kewl 'new' bands in 'real' life, they sound like assholes?
check out the beach houses debut album! new arcade fire sounds like springsteen, pitchfork said so! - the entry level office intern.
Treatment for the 1983 music video:
We'll film the band playing the song. Then apply Final Cut's "Bad TV Effect", "Dazzle" effect, and "Line Drawing" effect. It'll be mad legit.
Signed -director-
"A natural part of the band life-cycle that u have accepted?". Yeah, it suprizes me less each time. "That's life" via Sinatra.
As much as I'd like to think these are 15 year olds, they're probably 21+.
if i post stockhausen on my FB, does that make me 'gay'/'tween'/'try-hard fggt'/all of the above?
lol jk i love edward sharpe y'all
How come you always put an apostrophe at the end of the word "lives" Carles?
Oh.. HAHA two people are having a stupid conversation on facebook, and they dont know as much as us about music, they are so behind on whats hip.. hahaha.. great 'report' didnt know anything like this was going on in the world!
meanwhile
'guy wastes life leaving pointless comment'... sick new article!
@theman, hey who let this lil msntrmr in y'all... thats what u get for leaving entry lvlr's on the door
@theman, WELCOME TO HRO BRO
cales these are hella funny yo, keep 'sending em in' bros
dang, they are laughing sooo much in those comments hahahaha
@me, cus they are stoned
@Boohoo, they must <3 (via 'luv') breast coast
Hella gay haircut neon tree bro. Tweens...what are they?!!? (sarcasm)
@CoastalWAVVES, great use of sarcasm, BRO.
wow. sounds like Neon Treez just found out abt a kewl new buzzband called 'The Strokes'
Not sure about this HRO comedy meme. Seems 'worn out' [via low-hanging fruit].
@HereComesTheNativeAmericanApparel, [insert joke about saggy ballsack]
only listen 2 cut chip yall
hippiewave
to "natty pormans shavd hed"
"ya'll were great on fallon"
had to do it
Maybe this is a dumb question yall, but...what is a facebook?
@Bronah Chill, wen u hit a entry lvlr n00b in the head with literature.. lol im so bad
@down to chill koala, way to play it. share: what consists of an entry lvlr?
@Bronah Chill, bless y- fuck you. for being so lucky
Went to the neon trees myspace to see what 'major' they are on..
Guaranteed somebody at Mercury records is freaking out right now that HRO just 'shat' all over their pet band.
This band for some reason reminds me of that shit morningwood. Trying SOOO hard to be edgy.
natie portman's shaved puss
@KEUT AZN, 'you shaved yer head for v for vendetta, did you shave yer v for vagin as well?'
@luvucrls, <3 between 2 ferns [via zach gachpafanakbro]
Who cares about facebook convo's?
Test
I think that's just how it works. ppl make music. if ppl like it, more ppl listen. if too many ppl like it, initial ppl start to dislike it and move on to something new. everyone is entry level at some point. music will last 4ever
first !
huge lol @ mistaking neon trees for neon indian
just want 2 b a hippie or something, and listen 2 cool bands my friends haven't heard of, like that band called Play It Cold or something. The Radio's Haunted Head was recommended 2 me by my real blood-and-DNA bro, sounds like something his friends would listen 2. they r older than my friends. the altest I've ever been is that one time when I bought an album by a band called Panic You! at the Wilco, but although the boys were cute and wore clothes I'd kill 2 own, I didn't really dig their music. the songs were 2 long 4 me.
maybe I should just look 4 alt bands in googel and tell my friends I've gotten 'in to' them. they'll never know I still listen to M&N ft Rihanna - I Love the Way You Lie to Me and Katy Perrie's Florida Girl.
neon ents make me wan2 kill myself/others
Jussa adda da watta beetcheez!
stfu
Neon Trees = Campfire Weekend + Feenix - reverb
This was the best post ever, ya'll
CARLES YOU GOT SOOO FUCKING
CARLES YOU GOT SOOO FUCKING TROLLED ON THIS ONE
