they covered "Keep On Loving You" recently which I imagine might earn them a new heap of scorn

They've been doing it for a while now and it's amazing.

i think cigarettes after sex are better than sex after smoking...

I should hate’em since my soon to be ex’ crush absolutely adores this band. Unaware of said crush and her love for this band, he used to rave about’em. Then I discovered why he listened to’em. Hilarious. I checked’em out. Bland. So no love nor hate.

Cigarettes After Sex are a slowcore/dream pop band on an indie label and they have crazy high streaming numbers - it feels like a lot of people don't notice they're this big? their top song is no one's idea of commercial but it's closing in on a billion streams on Spotify pic.twitter.com/Oa4vSpcUai— Matthew Perpetua (@perpetua) July 13, 2023

i know, perpetua, but i had no idea
I mean a lot of the reason they're crushing it is because it's sex playlist music, but why does this not come up often as an example of wildly popular legit indie rock band?— Matthew Perpetua (@perpetua) July 13, 2023
also this came up because I was checking to see if they'd sold out Forest Hills Stadium and the answer is like 92% right now, and the cheap seats at this show are $147 each— Matthew Perpetua (@perpetua) July 13, 2023

beneath our watch has arisen a supercell of the culturally benighted, and cigarettes after sex are their schlager

Always liked them (well, hence starting the thread) but I was surprised just how much ILX didn’t fancy them much at all.
I still like them. Very XX/Interpol influenced, but then I think that about most woozy rock of the last decade or so.
