Im convinced this dude is James Dean. If this were the 50’s, this guy would have been on the same level. Look at this guy.

[@_m_benjamin]

Vauxhall-like Morrissey, nailing Elvis' vibrato, Killers on coke, almost bordering on some Stephen Morris, with side of Strokes vibes - I mean, wow. The comparisons are gonna fly with you gents, but what you have collectively is just utterly unique!

[@michelelovallo9324]

Yes Morrissey!!

[@mosriteminioncause7741]

You are right on 🎯💯%!!!

[@LordIronfist]

Wow. I had the exact same reaction. Well, almost... The guitar riffs with the Morrissey-esque parts of the vocal made me think the Smiths instead, because that's definitely the style that'd make Johnny Marr smile, haha.... It's almost like an assembly of pieces of old outdated computer parts were recombined with some new pieces to create a brand new machine

[@amyeaton8396]

I love them because they make me want to sing along

[@Djangochief]

Why bring up coke? Drugs aren’t cool you don’t have to do drugs to be a rockstar or be cool

[@yunivursexe7634]

This song healed a little part of my soul

[@kristinkhan8738]

I'm in total awe of this band. This is JUST what we ALL need❤️

[@glennwatkins4491]

I dig these Cats in my late 60's

[@silkyswoman]

I’m in my late 50’s and always looking for amazing new music!

[@GimmeClip]

Holy #1 with a bullet, Batman. I haven't been this excited about a band since the 80's! These guys are incredible.

[@kathyreily4938]

Agreed!!!

[@idkwt2use]

Yeah I get you. But have you never heard of the Killers?

[@chrisirey541]

This song reminds me of “Need you around” by the Smoking Popes. They are opening for Airborne toxic on their tour. Love it!!!!!

[@wsidejack1]

You have a very good ear for music.

[@Scarabeecookies]

That's a fucking great voice !!!

[@michaeltriana8563]

Few bands like this arrive on earth.. I am BLOWN away.. They can probably go on forever. PURE talent and a mix of so much that I love.. Yet absolutely original... This is something else completely..I am stunned!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@jthurman8651]

The best song I've heard this year.

[@santinocorleone1204]

Chicago's own!

[@davidgulbransen5408]

I someone describe them as Roy Orbison meets the Smiths. :) I love that jangle guitar... very Marr, and the vocalist definitely has Morrissey tones. So far I'm loving it...

[@diggerthegroundhog8799]

I just said exactly that. I try to keep up but missed this. It's amazing.

[@ericsilberstein667]

Missing the bass of Rourke and drums of Joyce though.

[@tamador6002003]

Rock is not dead. Thank you.

[@Randomdude1979]

​@mikedavis8008green day lost their touch

[@bananasoupysoup]

The Killers of the 2020s. I will blast this in my car like I used to do with Mr. Brightside.

[@bobbyweiss0888]

Doesn't anyone but me see this as an homage to the over-the-top emotional tunes of the late 50's- early 60's?

[@wsidejack1]

There is a lot of Roy Orbison in this. Although he was not as angsty and vulnerable in his music as Morrissey.

[@dianamatson6002]

What a voice! Great song. Now on my list of great songs to crank up at home and sing loudly! Love it!

[@wsidejack1]

I was at their show last night at The Bottom Lounge in Chicago. They opened for The Last Dinner Party. BCMB knocked it out of the park!! I predict that they, and The Last Dinner Party, will be a LOT bigger one year from now than they are today.

[@djovanovi]

Totally excellent show all the way around .. I hope they post that Careless Whisper cover they do somewhere soon. That was Amazeballs

[@wsidejack1]

I think Annalisa (WXRT dj) is correct. In a few years, we (the 700 who bought tickets) will be bragging that we were there. An amazing chance to see two soon to be renowned bands together early on. And kudos to whoever booked this dream combination. @@djovanovi

[@jessicazimmer8910]

They were awesome! Both bands put on a fantastic show.

[@travgpeters1]

heard this on the way back to work after my lunch break *car radio* . it got stuck in my head .. kept saying the band name till i got back to my desk in case i forgot it before i looked them up haha

[@NS9213]

I was listening to XPN 88.5 College Radio and this comes on! Blown away and what a Voice!!! Love this song and band!

[@zb2363]

Me too on all!!

[@kristinkhan8738]

Me too!!!!

[@GimmeClip]

Me too!!! 91.7 UNT! Then I saw this video and it's like I'm back in 1985 going nuts over a cool band!

[@zukomario]

Heard this on a customer's car and liked it immediately so had to write the title of the song on my hand.

[@carlalay1696]

I feel young again!

[@SamShepard-zm2zj]

I truly hop and do believe that this band has an incredibly bright future

[@ebetsy]

Reminiscent of Depeche Mode performing "Just Can't Get Enough" live on Top of the Pops back in the early '80s - that incredibly lush, smoked velvet voice!!!

[@Fox1nDen]

a rock voice that is powerful without screaming wow and vibratto spot on interesting

[@diggerthegroundhog8799]

Wow. I am mezmerized. Its like Moz and Roy.

[@VK-wu2bt]

Wow, wow, wow. Incredible song. Keep on working hard and release some more albums!

[@user-jg9wz3ui1d]

A new rock band for the masses to get excited about…finally!!!

[@Jusell]

This band is my current musical obsession ❤❤❤❤❤

[@slshusker]

I heard this on college radio while driving and immediately made a note of the band name. What an amazing retro 80's alt sound!

[@ED-cz2bq]

This song is one of the best I heard in ages!!!! It talks to the soul and makes you feel happy, and just want to dance all around the room!!!!!❤❤❤❤

[@flpmedia2312]

His Voice is Crazy 🫡

[@concars1234]

Heard this on The Buzz 99.9. Instant fan. COME TO MONTREAL!!!!!!!!!

[@andyreaver1962]

Like Elvis and the Smiths had a spiritual child. I can’t wait for the album on Spotify. 😎

[@ellencooney5563]

Caught a bit of the Righteous Brothers in there too.

[@SunMiFontaine]

I was hearing Roy Orbison and the fratellis. My husband heard a little Killers. LOVE IT.

[@andyreaver1962]

@@SunMiFontaine yes! I think it’s so great that their first music video is getting them the attention they deserve!

[@Admirallmao]

I hear Elvis and Johnny Cash

[@jdlegojedi2002]

The album is out!

[@nikkib317]

His voice sounds like Roy Orbison's.

[@darkside7802]

I love these Indie sounding bands the most.

[@lynnedanko1813]

WOW. THIS BAND IS GREAT!

[@fjfrancois]

Man awesome song ❤ my kind of rock 😊👍 20 years ago I will program this song on LA indie 103.1 FM, to bad this station is no longer 😢

[@lilybee5607]

Goosebumpin baby

[@SherrysFabFinds]

Omg, sounds like a throwback type of song, absolutely LOVE it!!

[@josefernandez6254]

Saw this band at the Q101 Twisted Xmas concert at Aragon Ballroom. Awesome performance!

[@kjf1988]

They are a great band. Wonderful musicianship! The lead singer isn't imitating anyone. He may have slight tones that are reminiscent, but it's unique in its own way. And I love it!

[@frederickhertzog7004]

Excellent Excellent bravo du Son!!!!!!

[@wsidejack1]

Have you ever heard a song that makes you stop what you are doing and snap to attention? If not almost make your heart stop? "Impressively Average" did that to me. And that happens (to me), given the la-la pop music of today, only every five years or so (Although I do like some more "pop" stuff like The War on Drugs song "I Don't Live Here Anymore," and so on). All I can say about this song is WOW. ABSOLUTELY WOW. ABSOLUTELY F***ING WOW!!! I have seen the references to the Smiths, the Strokes, Elvis, Roy Orbison, and so on, in terms of what people hear in this song. I agree with them all. This song is a little like a fine red wine--everyone who samples it has a slightly different take on the taste. "Tastes of Elderberry and Blueberry," "Wild Berries and a hint of Walnut," "My palate detects Strawberries, Blackberries, and Almonds." 🙂 The great range of the lead singer's voice brings to mind LP, a female equivalent, who recently came on my radar screen. Thank God that great Indie Rock still exists, and that WXRT supplies it to us here in Chicago.

[@Mo-fy1zb]

Bless WXRT for what they still do.

[@MrKarlbarat]

awesome and powerful band

[@daisyluquin7690]

I’m in love 😍

[@nancyshapanka9666]

Loving this band !

[@VPlay247]

You guys are gonna be superstars in no time. Mark my words!

[@susancooper3111]

I dont know where to start about this extraordinary rock band !!! New to me when i heard them on tv and ran to KZbin to get their name its now about 3:30a.m. and i am still amazed to hear the powerful voice of the singer. I am as excited about the drummer as I am about him.!!! When he adds more to his drum kit jt will be like Im listening to drummer Roger Taylor, the .most incredible drummer ever to walk this earth !! THIS BAND COULD CONCEIVABLY SOON BE THE NEXT GREAT ROCK BAND AS WELL AS GOOD AS THE LEGENDARY BRITISH BAND QUEEN OF THE 80's and that is the ultimate rock band ever! The singer has a fantastic but different sound but is potentially as powerful a singer as the once in a generation musical genius Freddie Mercury. And please have the lead guitarist 🎸 listen to the great Brian May both playing with Queen's full band and also his solo's. They have a chance of becoming huge in the music world. Best band ive heard in decades ! !

[@mommom5845]

A little Roy Orbison in his beautiful voice❤

[@Lovelifenow]

88.5 florida ❤that's where i discovered you! I got goose bumps 😮❤

[@false_binary]

FR that was great, soooo many influences.

[@dennisbullis4896]

his range is like jay from jay and the americans from the 60's

[@bonnieholt3135]

His voice is a bit like that too! I hear a bit of Roy Orbison, Johnny Cash and a little bit of Elvis as well.

[@TeenageKicksProduction]

Great song, great singer, great video ! well done guys ....!

[@diggerthegroundhog8799]

I cant believe they're American? I thought British or perhaps some Scandinavian band. So good

I'm hearing you being played on KUTX in Austin, Texas. Super fun and keep it up.

[@danielramsey1418]

I thought for sure these guys had to be from the UK when I first heard this song!😂 No matter, these guys are gonna be big! Love the clean up tempo guitars and of course this Rob Orbison-like voice on lead vocal is gonna be bigger than life!

[@laradiantrr9357]

Your every song📻📀 could sound exactly the same on an album and I would still support your artistry and buy it because I love your specific sound, vibe, danceable melodic sing alongs, and nearly untouchable dramatic epic feeling vocals. It has been a while since the last song release which earned me subscribing to your channel. I couldn't believe you guys weren't huge a year ago...much less now! It has to be coming for ya soon...but until it does, I will enjoy the likely possibility I could attend a live show at a still somewhat humble venue where scalpers and ticket prices aren't monstrous. This is all to say: Your band makes incredibly catchy and intoxicating music - stellar skills!👏🏻🙌🏻💃🏻🎸🎙🎉🎵🎼🎶

[@andylynch44441]

Great song! The Smiths used a time machine (and got a fifth member, which tracks - two guys needed to play Marr's parts)

[@ericsilberstein667]

Sounds nothing like The Smiths. Can’t replace Morrissey, Marr, Rourke, and Joyce. His voice is the only thing similar to Morrissey. Great alt band either way.

[@JasonKale]

Amazing!!!

[@joniallen176]

Groove thang

[@mattg7146]

Very few songs touch me deep down in my soul. I can honestly say this is one of those songs. Absolutely beautiful.
