Don't think I've ever heard the Avett Brothers before, despite them being relatively high profile and a long-lasting enterprise. But boy did this song rub me the wrong way:

The video maybe made things worse? Very taking-the-piss, so not ironic it's ironic? I can't tell.

that's bad but more so earnest it makes me a little uncomfortable.

Holy shit that's bad. My daughter and her friend are obsessed with Darren Criss. I keep conflating his name with Peter Criss and Criss Angel: Mind Freak.

ok, regardless of whether that Avett thing is the worst of the year or not, i'm kinda dying to know if:
a) the Avett Army has broken out in civil war over that song, brother against brother-style, OR
b) if they're all just so blindly loyal and believe the boys can do no wrong and, thus, everyone loves it
it's definitely one of the two.

From what I can tell, Avett fans are kind of mixed on the recorded song, but agree that the song *live* is the best song ever.

oh lol I just heard this song on So You Think You Can Dance but never really registered it as particularly bad since there's a million generic pop songs that sound like it

OK, my daughter's friends asked her if she wanted to see Surfaces, so she asked me if she could. I had never heard of the band before, and between the generic name and the general who-the-fuck? vibe of the act there's just not much of a web presence I could find (unless it's on the dark web, aka Instagram). But I did find their latest video:

This doesn't sound altogether different from much of the pop crap ILX regularly stans for. Maybe if they didn't look like refugees from Degrassi?

The group has been praised for its genre-bending, feel-good music that has been compared to the likes of Sugar Ray and Rex Orange County.The pair began their creative partnership by exchanging iPhone voice memos

Can't find a youtube link for it or anything, but Bootsy Brewski Boogie by Bootsy Collins appeared on my Spotify release radar playlist and it is distinctively awful. It also appears to double as an ad for Bootsy Collins' brewery

"she plays bass" is actually great, will not be upset if all major label indie pop attempts to be the sundays

the lyrics of "She Plays Bass" are awful but her vocal tone and the guitars are lovely enough I'll forgive it

“She Plays Bass” definitely illustrates how terrible lyrics can ruin an otherwise good-sounding song.
