Yea I saw their show last year. Was great. Seen a lot of shows and theirs was one of the best. Green Day was still better😁

[@randomrun1]

It's weird to refer to Bono's son's band as "indie".

[@ph-fi7qo]

The band being signed to a label from Universal Music is worse for the indie label than being a nepo baby, but the meaning of indie in music is already fucked up for a long time.

[@jamesadcock5235]

As a 51 yr old u2 fan Dublin ecstasy is only stand out tune for me. The other songs sound pretty similar. But they are still learning

[@thenewholistic]

“Indie” band? Hard to be indie when you’re the son of Bono, yea? (Good band though! Really developing well into their sound!)
