The world doesn't understand what they've got with these guys! This should be on every radio, tv, platform !

[@Oneiromaster]

This video and song are pure heaven. Takes me to a completely inspiring space of mind.

[@mxp720]

It's amazing how much they nailed the 90s video editing style in the video. The quick cuts, the fast-motion nature/travel/city footage, the shifting color effects, etc. If I didn't know better, you could tell me this was made in 1991 and I'd 100% believe you.

[@hanswan]

How is this band not more popular. It is a crime.

[@chaoswitch1974]

Huh? They're huge in the scene. Look at all the comments in 3 days. If they're not popular enough, I'm not sure who is.

[@wolflover968]

@@chaoswitch1974 Modern radio couldn't handle music like this. Remember, on radio today, it's all about the auto-tune and mumble rap. NONE of that could hope to compete against genuine music like Drab Majesty's. Deb and Mona are artists. Today's top40 (and most of radio, too) is just prefab, auto-tuned-to-death crap.

[@jackgoff2072]

I agree totally! I have seen them live 5 times now.They were the opening act everytime. They are so ready to headline and make it big.

[@chaoswitch1974]

@tonyserrano5644 I can't even count the amount of times I've seen them, beginning in tiny clubs in Los Angeles, before Mona was in the band. I saw Marriages, too, which was Andrew's (Deb's) band with Emma Ruth Rundle prior. I've seen them go from unknown to huge. I think Chelsea Wolfe and Boy Harsher are the only other bands I've seen get as popular as Drab. I just can't see them getting as big as The Cure or Depeche Mode with the way the music industry is these days. Drab Majesty has traveled the world. I think they're pretty big for a scene band.

[@chaoswitch1974]

@wolflover968alphamale8 I haven't listened to the radio since the 90's. Do people still listen to the radio?

[@Quentingnostic]

Great tune but mannn I really hope their darkwave era isn't done forever. As much as they have a unique voice in shoegaze, they really had me with the last couple albums.

[@eKKo66eKKo]

I love the contrasting vocals between Mona D and Deb Demure.. hoping they’ll explore that path further

[@theniteowl7007]

really glad that Mona has been an official member for some time now.

[@fredgarvin4252]

They’re gonna hire a drummer also. That’s what Falcore told me. The lead guitarist (birthday Massacre) who also is friends with Deb & Mona.

[@talkingmudcrab718]

Girl, same.

[@literaticrux8292]

Did they say "the spatial divide of the skin and the glove". I just love lyrical that minutiae! So dope.

[@yrogerthat]

love the spatial divide between their vocal lines

[@pigeonette]

I’M SO HERE FOR MORE SHOEGAZE-Y STUFF. This song changed me life, honestly.

[@oldirtydawson]

Anyone who spent a lot of time watching 120 minutes on MTV as a youth will love this song. It's as if Andrew from Sisters of Mercy joined his old mates The Mission UK and did a collaboration with Lush. The guitar work/noises at the end is incredible. I know guys like Robin Guthrie and Kevin Shields are like "fuck yeah!". Just wow. I'm 43 and can't get enough of Drab Majesty. This song is fantastic. Thank you Deb and Mona! What a time to be alive. Music is life.

[@gregcurlett2054]

44 here and I agree completely. It's like time travelling and being present with something brand new all at once.

[@inconcision]

Everyone's got their own take on it. I thought of it as Simple Minds and Ride made a baby in the past, but it was raised by Lush and Robin Guthrie et. al. and grew up to be this.

[@avince7]

@@inconcision I love the Ride reference!

[@absinthe_enigmafoxglove2896]

Throw in some duran duran.

[@phinehasr]

I’m 46 and digging it.

[@dogdog2098]

They played this live and it was so damn good. Mesmerizing and beautiful

[@pathogensmusick]

I'm getting a lot of Lush, Slowdive, Ride, and Cocteau Twins here. Great stuff. Sweetness and Light from Lush came to mind within 30 seconds of listening.

[@johnelizondo4784]

EXACTLY what i came here to say ......wow. coolness

[@pathogensmusick]

@johnelizondo4784 Well... this is confirmation that we both have great taste in music and that we both know our stuff.🤘

[@lemurdream]

I'm hearing Chapterhouse for sure.

[@pathogensmusick]

@lemurdream Definitely! Chapterhouse is underrated, so I guess it's good that current artists are emulating their sound and keeping the genre alive.

[@lemurdream]

@@pathogensmusick "Whirlpool" is a classic album from that era. This song reminds me of "Love Forever" off of the second Chapterhouse album "Blood Music".

[@slim.g5365]

this song fucks so hard. LONG LIVE DRAB MAJESTY!!!

Seeing this band live with Deafheaven was one of the best shows I've ever seen, it was transcendent

Beautiful. Gives me vibes of Chapterhouse.

[@Katratzi]

It's like going back to the 90's, Madchester vibes. Love it ✨

[@M2Mil7er]

ah yeah, just more or less said the same. The Reni and Mani style rhythm section really sells it!

[@MegaMattreed]

definitely. bass and drums reminds me of Opportunity by The Charlatans

[@jebclang9403]

Experimental flashes of random videoclips with rudimentary transitions in between... i think you mean 80's.

Hints of Curve. And Lush. I can dig it.

[@mxp720]

After hearing the lead vocals on 'Oxytocin' from Modern Mirror, I really hoped we'd get more Mona vocals, so I'm very happy to hear more.

[@sheepygreen2912]

Very reminiscent of Lush in the 90’s. Love it!

[@DRnick2359]

This video even reminds me of Lush's "Superblast!" video....

[@christophermaynard1902]

[@oldirtydawson]

Every Drab Majesty song is. I finally have a reason to stop listening to "Vanity" on repeat.

[@Andrew_SG]

@@oldirtydawson I agree. I have to listen to Modern Mirror, The Demonstration and Completely Careless or at least one of them every day or I go through the day feeling like I'm missing something.

[@mandys5270]

I’m surprised that more people aren’t mentioning the Duran Duran vibes in this song…. Drab Majesty is so different than most bands out there today, really enjoying them right now 😊

[@KrulDaRapper1]

Found this while listening to the song “Dupe - Rutina” 👍👍

[@ElenaArboria]

Welcome to the cult

[@spinglasshydra]

The harmonic contrast between Deb and Mona is an exquisite expression of what true Dream-pop and Shoegaze are all about. Mona's naturally high vocals, contrasted against Deb's low vibrato, reverberates almost as well as their ambient, yet clearly defined textural guitars. This upcoming album will be something extremely special to hear, if this song is any indicator .....!!!!

[@theresam8625]

Well...I'm about to listen to this 50,000 more times tonight. 💜

[@kalenbaker7901]

Love a band that can continue to evolve. This new era of Drab Majesty is so awesome!

[@stevelanemusic4463]

Modern shoegaze. A little Cocteau, a bit of Bloody Valentine, a tad Stone Roses, I’m digging it. The dual vocals make it shine ✨

[@ThomCoe]

Definitely not modern shoegaze. Bands like Chapterhouse already did this.

[@M2Mil7er]

Getting some late '80s baggy, 2nd summer of love era vibes from this. Actual real bass, and moving away from the drum machine. I'll always love the older stuff, but this is a welcome changeup.

[@gregcurlett2054]

I keep hoping they'll incorporate a bass player and drummer. Same look, otherworldly androgyny and shades. That would be awesome live

[@rococolesyeux]

I can't remember how many times I've heard this song. Most wonderful song

[@JohnnyKass17]

Truth be told, I gave up on new music. I stuck to my 80’s favorites and found just a slight hope in shoegaze through DKFM. Through listening regularly, some amazing DJ at DKFM played ellipses from Drab and my world was shook. Finally, some talented musicians out there making an effort to be groundbreaking and unique. Thanks Drab for giving us amazing music in the midst of all the BS pushed these days. I hope to see you live sometime soon.

@@cafarhanOpinions are subjective. After listening to the new album, I prefer the Demonstration and Modern Mirror as well.
