Softcult’s “music for mall goths” is the feminist grunge we need | Live Performance

[@asnierkishcowboy]

Its rare that the live version of songs sounds so much different and better at the same time, despite the original already being a great song. Especially Gaslight is insanely good.

[@YaBoyMacD]

Love that one..and all of them

[@rodocornejo]

I'm so glad I discovered this band, they are seriously good 🖤

[@BlakJanuary]

Feels like a band that would have played at the bronze in buffy

[@CoURTN3Y23]

yes

[@MrCatch2two]

This is amazing and absolutely true.

[@sebastienleroux4872]

Best comment ever ❤️

[@mikekelly5422]

Gen X here. I love hearing the 90's alt sound and how new generations are interpreting it and making it even more sonically impactful. Softcult is def one of the most talented bands in this genre and the vox harmonies are other-worldly!

[@nimhard]

Same here :)

[@misteral1083]

Same on all points

[@rafaelzambrano4253]

absolutelly an amazing live performance! so proud of being a fan of these girls

[@hollyely1882]

I’m so excited to see them live tomorrow and supporting them. I am so glad I randomly find them!!!

[@Aspiret620]

Wow their live performance is absolutely spot on.

[@nimhard]

I grew up in the 90's and I'm a huge fan of them.

[@leonardogustavo9582]

It is the essence of the 90s transported to these times... Amazing!!!

[@room1271]

3…2….1….commence launch. Had a great feeling from this band the first time I heard them. Canada needs a talented group like this who does it all. This band actually ticks off all the boxes that define the word “artist”. Today we’re bombarded with label hyped performers who just don’t cut it artistically. Get ready Canada and the rest of the world. Let’s hope they’re recognized and supported by the right people. Kick a$$ and make us proud. Much love from your neighbors in Guelph, Room 12 👍🏻🍻🤟🏻❤️

[@superandychannel6250]

WOW! 9.03-9.04 great addition, or something I haven't heard of before.

[@MarcioCosta0]

Phoenix harmonies are so beautiful

[@garygellin]

[@biajade2524]

I love them🗣️

[@kdcndw1]

Me thinks The Cloud's Penny Century has to be a touchstone as far as the vocal harmonies go. But this duo is one to watch. Some great songs.

[@SB-yl1ng]

Softcult my type of girls stay True North Strong .

[@parttimecomix]

Saw them in Chicago last week! They rock 🤘🏻🤘🏻

[@WarofThoughts]

How was the turnout to that show?

[@parttimecomix]

@@WarofThoughts good! It was at Cobra Lounge which isn’t huge but they packed em in

[@WarofThoughts]

@@parttimecomix Thanks for the quick reply. I only discovered them a couple days ago on KZbin. I regret not hearing them sooner and having missed multiple chances this year to see them. I hope they will return to the Midwest in 2024 because they are the best new band I have heard in a very long time.

[@nikokamada]

I love them, best band!

[@unelias2592]

just amazing

[@p25h76l]

Dudes like your music, too. 🤘

Какие кайфовые!❤

[@WarofThoughts]

Cults enforce rigid conformity and it is actually those who are endorsing a new view of gender that are instituting a cult on college campuses, in the workplace, in entertainment and other pillars of culture. We always made allowances for so-called tomboys, or sensitive males, although there was always a level of toxicity which should have been pushed back against. But that does not mean that the walls of gender must be totally brought down and new walls constructed.

[@triphopbeatsbyrolendoja6934]

[@ssgolding64]

Otima banda👏

[@johnsummers9660]

That Fender Jaguar is sexy af!

[@Retr0ver4]

Are they a grunge band??

[@laclochard]

the title craked me up 😂 please girls realize being a woman is no joke and no costume, I say this because I read they are from Canada and heard them talk. I am in Spain and those women like me who have been serious feminist activists for years have been going through a hell that people can not even imagine trying to avoid ending up like Canada in relation to women's rights.

[@chronexl_]

Kurt Cobain would be proud hahaha

[@ars4455]

I swear I try to find grunge traces in their songs, but I can't... it's a wonderful shoegaze/dreampop duo, but not grunge

[@Himizu2023]

Why the hell are they tagged as Grunge here?

[@davetelekom443]

If you were in the 90s, you will understand

[@taintofgreatness]

Because they make grunge music?

[@dougmccoll6126]

As a fan of Neil Young's Grunge Stuff, yes they are Grungy as Hell and I mean they Do it Well!! Shoegaze is a special reverb-laden, species of grunge that they nail!!

[@jamisonmoore3492]

Awesome
