Wet Leg: Tiny Desk (Home) Concert

[@nprmusic]

How do you love rap when rap doesn’t love you back? From Rico Nasty’s harassment from toxic Carti fans, to Saucy Santana's unapologetically femme aesthetics in a queerphobic industry, to the assault case that put Megan Thee Stallion’s entire image on trial, each episode of Louder Than A Riot - the second season of our investigative hip-hop podcast - unpacks the unspoken rules of rap that hold the entire culture back. Tap in to our first episode at n.pr/louder-season-2.

Just heard them first time 3 days ago. I’m closer to 60 lol

[@alanogy]

I'm closer to 70, and haven't found someone I liked this much in a few years. And nobody this fun in 5 years. This is someone who spent his pre-pandemic life becoming the middle-aged and then old guy at the back of a club hearing live music and looking for new sounds. The singer's voice reminds me of cool from every decade. Lou Reed, the Waitresses, Kim Deal. The silliness takes me back to seeing the B-52's or Go-Go's in the early 80's, or to Pixies songs. When rock is mostly dead and something this fun comes along, I'm interested. I found them on TikTok, where they get mocked and trolled by the young, and I don't understand why. I just heard them today and am sad to find they played a few miles away week before last. I'd have made this group my first "I'm fed up with the pandemic and going back out" concert.

I'm UK too, I think they have so much of a sound as Sonic Youth

I'm 69 yo & absolutely love Wet Leg. I think I've been a fan from their beginning. They bring a unique style & energy w/ lyrics you can sing, dance or whatever to! A new wave mix of the Stones & Joy Division that happily pumps the heart w/ a sound all their own!

so effin good - reminds me of the fun days of the Undertones (showing my age ) - why has music got so corporate and serious . This band deserves all the success that comes their way - such a delight .

I listen to a live version of Get Over You on KZbin once a day it's that good. Baby Feargal in all his chainsmoking glory.

Their music makes me so everything, you know? I can't even understand it..... Just flawless music. The ey have got the balance right, the drummer is super awesome, he's got that Topper Headon kind of magic in his playing, the chemistry between these musicians is in the music..and those lyrics! I I feel relieved every time I play the album....

Love this. Heard it on Radio X the other day and had to Shazam it. Brings back a feeling of Brit Pop Elastica with a nice dash of Verruca Salt.

I can't help that I love how much fun they still seem to be having.

Chaise Longue was playing like 5x a day on The Current in minneapolis all 2021, got song of the year, made it here, not bad for a debut!

Just discovered this group and am obsessed! Love this music! Just KNEW the Tiny Desk would be (at least) one step ahead of me. THANKS, NPR!
