Quick! Should I see Vivian Girls tonight?

lol u read the same rapidshare blogs as me

indie pop!

Why'd they dump the cute drummer, a major part of their appeal was that they were all beautiful.

she quit to play in crystal stilts full time.
she was too short to be cute anyhow.

short girls are totally cute!

yes, this is awesome!

will this band be popular longer than Slumber Party? Didn't they kinda sound similar?

The way they kind of slowly reveal the chorus on Where Do You Run To is really really great.

yeah the new record is pretty tight
where do you tun to is a sweet song

a three-girl band with candy-sweet vocals and great bangs

maybe they are great but I share the bell labs ugh factor when I read things like this

this band is dogshit for faggoty loser writers to jizz over

pro-tip giving them a good review wont get u any titty

There are two kickball katy's btw! This confused me too because I dated her friend pre-MOC

whoa!!!!!!!! who is real who is the impostor

The moc one is the one that brought shitty kickball from RIT photo majors to dumbfucks in Boston and LA. The Vivian girls one is just some dumb broad

MOC = Make Out Club?

i always liked to call her kickball cansy

cuz of her deceptively large cans

it never caught on

xpost yes

a henry darger ref in 2008 is bad form

srsly it's so 2005

this band is fine but i don't really get what makes them better than the 4,000 other bands that sound exactly like this playing everywhere all the time

the vivian girls are at my workplace being girly wayyyyyy too much. annoying.

natalie merchant wrote a song about it already. natalie merchant.

xp

dude don't call girls annoying

sunny successor is on to us

oh shit i didn't mean like that i meant being like "uhhh i'm gonna leave my cell phone here in case it rings" and "can i use the computer???"

no, but hating things for the sake of looking cool will? talk about loving yourself, geez. surely going around looking for things to dislike is more female-repelling than trying to find things you do like. grow up, buddy, we're not 17 anymore.

I'm still enjoying their cover of the Wipers' "Telepathic Love" more than any of their own songs. Sort of how I used to feel about Yo La Tengo and "Somebody's Baby." They need a hit single.

They need to stop using the same lame reverb effect on every fucking song live and stop emulating reductively simple bands.

I'm kinda with n/a on this band. But one thing I will say, looking back to times when I consumed lots of C-86y indie racket along these lines, is that sometimes acts like this can seem better the more of them they are, for some reason. (Small-differences comparison helps clarify what's unique about any given one, maybe?) And when listening to Vivian Girls next to something like Cause Co-Motion, I wind up liking them both better. VG have dead-girl harmonies that really suit them, sometimes.

Kevin Keller -- In the tank for Vivian Girls

So far, at least, Cause Co have many more good songs, though they've been doled out parsimoniously, single by single. Maybe the new 7" comp cd will remind people of their charm? People at Cause Co shows are made to twitch and jerk; people at Viv Girls shows seem a little more caught up in their own appreciation of the new it band--perhaps they're too cool to spazz out?

ts: being a faggoty loser writer vs. projecting onto one.

This band isn't even really that good, but whatever, they're fine.

Kenley with reverb

lol!

kudos

listening to vivian girls & cause comotion for the first time one after another, like both but CCM's songs are wayyyy better

also as hypey bands go, VG crap all over the tedious blackblack

like like like like these chix are like morons

oh already posted. still fuck this noise

i met some dude in the portaloo queue at an outside gig the other day in a vivian girls t-shirt. my initial assumption was that it was for the long-gone and obscure aussie band of the same name (it wasn't). dude nearly wet himself with excitement when i explained the aislers set to him

they're pretty young. I did sound for them once - they were nice - but so much of their appeal (besides being young and cute) is the reverb on the vocals.

Oh, they're good. Where Do You Run To has an epic build-up in the chorus. Admittedly, the vocal reverb helps.

man i was tbombin in dis thread

xpost
nsfw pic rip

Such an angsty thread. Those 2nd and 3rd records were pretty solid. Mostly. The world could do with more Vivian Girls songs than we ended up getting.

Wow, I was the last poster on this thread.

Anyway, they're back, and I've not seen any mention of it here. This sounds kinda promising.

Yeah, we have tickets for SF

here for this

yes

The whole album sounds nice and dense. Possibly similar to Everything Goes Wrong in that it may take a few listens to absorb the finer details.

Show the other night was quite great!
