These guys have such great taste in music. I discovered liars from this video, I paused the video and went to Apple Music and grabbed their whole discography and listened to the album he picked and I’m so excited to have something new and weird to listen to. I already own everything else they pulled out physical and digital. these videos are always a great way to discover new music. This series alone has opened me up to new music and and led me down a rabbit hole of finding so much diverse, amazing sights and sounds. I watch every episode even when I have no idea who is in the episode, even people I can’t stand I watch it and find something I like from their bag.

[@joeschuh4056]

Just hearing the liars? What a treat. The self titled album and Drums Not Dead are my picks from them.

Omg if I saw them in a music store!? We've only seen them 5 times! ❤ True story: One time my hubby was having a particularly tough day, some setbacks. It was a heavy heavy day, but on this day we had tickets to go see Interpol with Blonde Redhead. The show was amazing! But at the end of the show, Sam walked up to the edge of the stage and handed my hubby his stix. The same stix he used to play their amazing set. It was so awesome! It was like a confirmation that things were going to be ok. Brings tears to my eyes because he really needed something good to happen. I'll never forget that show.
