I genuinely believe this is one of the greatest songs of all time

That's because it is, even a year later.

Wooo

ME AS WELL

you’d be right

[@chadbaker4192]

The guitarist takes you into another world.

[@andyjardine8192]

Hypnotising! Love it 🎸

[@bullwinkle57]

In the Future, people will speak of Music in terms like, "Yes, i remember that song. That was after the Beatles and U2, but before Dry Cleaning." This is a benchmark. Just when you thought that Music had reached a cul-de-sac, you picked up your Dry Cleaning and discovered something new.

I went from: 'this is cool.' To: 'this is brilliant' in a matter of hours.

[@zachjollimore4339]

It took me five seconds into the 'chorus' that riff just slaps.

[@mercmcguirk]

I don't want to rip on the EP version of this song (it's good) but this version is better in every single way. This video is what sold me on this band.

[@clivemortimore8203]

"A kid with Yo Yo eyes"....where did she get that line from? It is something David Bowie would have come up with in his Ziggy Stardust life span. Sher brilliance.

Guitarist is something else

[@isidoravera866]

Such a beautiful song

[@bodyelectric1954]

Indeed very dry.. Love it 👍👌

[@Sergio_Math]

A song inspired by the bassist.

[@victormeas7898]

Right?! I'd wager it's also because there's only one guitar, gives less space for the bassist to hide behind haha! But nevertheless, Dry Cleaning manages to consistently wow with the inclusion of those sick bass lines

Reminds me Sonic Youth

[@jonnystorm9372]

Like if The Smiths and La Dispute got together and had a threesome with Sonic Youth then that birthed Fugazi which inspired what we hear today?

[@Rrodfer]

Spotify recommended this song to me today I was listening to the song on my way back from work, so I started to imagine what the band members would be like (after all, I didn't know her) I thought: oh it must be some tattooed guys with long hair, the vocalist must be a tall blonde with a serious face I got it right

I'm not American, can somebody explain this kind of music to me?

Why would you have to be American?

[@AGVersace100]

@@koreypaul6698 I wonder if I'm losing some aspects because I don't live in America and I miss some aspects of american culture that make bands like this enjoyable and fun.

[@kazman_6899]

@@hottrash7503 This takes a steaming hot dump on the entire grunge movement. It's Eve Libertine hijacking The Fall, or Life Without Buildings violently copulating with that generic '90s crap. Either way, I ejaculated. I hope the impending inoculation imparts some discerning taste; you woefully need it.
