you make a good point rskva. definitely true, was just frustrated with the current crappy set of bands and I suppose in due time the tides will change.

ye but i’m not the most visitt ed music journalism site around…also there’s nothing wrong with someone dictating what music is good i’m just saying it’s a scary time in the industry when its controlled by the same few people who have the same obscure taste

I agree they dont sound alike but its all the same scene, the stereogum pitchfork brooklynvegan scene. To reinforce how silly it is, stereogum JUST posted a video by a band called SUMMER Camp. they may not sound alike but they are all listening to eachother, it just shows that its more about being cool then the actual content of the music. The same crowd going to Market Hotel to see Surfer Blood is buying The Drums EP and rating Beach House best new music on pitchfork etc etc …. also when soo many bands come out of the woodworks within just ONE year with surf reference it shows a lack of creativity. it’s not like im saying every band mentioning surf isnt good. In fact Surfer Bloods new albums really good. It’s just too sceney and the trouble with the Blog-Age where one holier then thou hipster picks the bands to put on his site and creates these 6 month fades where Shit-Gaze Two piece bands Japandroids, No Age, Waves all sell out 1,000 seat venues . with all the good quality music out there there is no need for all three of those bands to be written about on these sites all the time, only one of these bands (No Age) is actually deserving

Emo Kids from Florida doing Joy Division Pop. they are not from brooklyn and neither are 100% of the brooklyn bands. Isn’t it a tad weird that The Drums come out with “lets go SURFING” and buzz band of moment is SURFER Blood, MGMT new album cover is cats SURFING, surfer blood played with another buzz band BEACH fossils. this scene is so overplayed and repetitive and all these blogs eat it up
