Women - "Eyesore"

[@danielleonardosantos7089]

This world would be different if songs like this got more recognition. Underrated is a tiny word for this.

[@RegularDude00]

Couldnt agree more. This band had such a influence on so many great bands that are out today. And preoccupations continued this path.

to me.. women are like a band from 60s that shortly had the opportunity to take a look in the future.. and tried to change their music then. haha Love them.

[@Rhizzome]

100%! I’ve long thought this! Beautiful to see others catching that vibe ❤

[@OwenAllRound]

good take. i can imagine them trying to imitate haha

[@Rsurect]

Oh my god the outro to this song, I could listen to it for hours

[@Gouldius]

Is there a collective term for being utterly invested in this band and Preoccupations/Cindy Lee universe?! Cause I'm in.

[@jayb1543]

Best album of this decade so far there I said it. Some of the only truly real shit I've heard that wanted to push guitar music forward in terms of songwriting, performance and emotion. Incredible band.

[@tree2040]

Three years later and you're still right about that album of the decade thing

[@philll68]

End of the decade and you're still right. I gave up on indie rock after these guys broke up.

[@cowdumdum]

This album was a masterpiece in every way

[@juanvitor6833]

You guys gotta be joking, such a boring music. I can name a lot of things that are better in so many ways. Ana Frango Elétrico with her new album, Little Electric Chicken Heart, is an example.

[@philll68]

@@juanvitor6833 This is a conversation is about rock music.

[@ericswanger1634]

They burned brightly and too shortly. This song and "Locust Valley" are faves.

[@WhiskeyPieSometimes]

Yeah I dunno why they broke up but they had at least 2 more albums worth of ideas and sounds to work with.

[@aviationcompilation455]

They broke up because one of the member passed away. And even before the two brothers in the band were getting into a lot of arguments and even fought once on stage and had to cancel a tour that had like 20 shows left... sucks, one of my favorite bands of all time.

[@quillynx499]

They have a new band called preocupations. Sounds almost just like this.

[@aviationcompilation455]

it sounds similar but its def not as noisey imo, which I liked. But preoccupations is awesome forsure. women was just way more raw I think. just imo. hopefully flegel sees this.

[@oOShutts97]

Ramon check out Cindy lee, it's pat flegels solo project it's more noisy and lo fi

Sorry to be offtopic but does someone know of a tool to get back into an instagram account..? I was stupid lost my password. I would love any assistance you can give me!

[@racializedkanadian]

i went thru a period where i'd just play this over and over and over and over. i did that earlier with 'oxygen feed' ... before i even knew about 'women' ....

[@jquill6]

only discovered this song recently and i literally have it on a loop everywhere I go.

[@JuanKallot]

A truly great song. Fucking so gutted I was late to the party on these and so I never saw them live. RIP Chris

[@blitzkrieg6963]

Their instrumentation is absolutely second to none.

[@lindbergandfamily]

@SCARSANDGRIPES Which two chords?

[@ChrissV234]

Crazy that this is faster than the album version, the guitar lines are killers to play and they are playing them faster here!

[@RegularDude00]

This is still so magical to me.

[@PeterByker]

This is a treat, but prepare yourself for the torrent of emotion attached to this band and their music.

[@geoffnorwai3110]

Women's lyrics are so interesting and vivid, I don't know why they didn't post them anywhere! They can be so hard to make out

[@ZodiacEntertainment2]

Vivid how? I always thought the appeal was that they are haze-y and the meanings unclear.

[@syaoranoni54326]

i first heard this song in the winter of two years ago. I remember sitting in a playground with a friend, freezing to death. I felt so happy I could cry, in a time where I felt nothing but bored for years, this song summed up that feeling. thanks

[@WhiskeyPieSometimes]

This is my favorite song of their's. I've never been able to describe why, but I feel like your comment somehow comes closer than I ever could.

[@feverray8307]

[@DillrodProductions]

[@buddhull]

Tom's Box Tom's Box so what clears the years-long boredom, anyway? Besides the dreams I mean, and the sings you say? Does a finger snap when you hear Eyesore? Or are these needs to know another score? I am bored.

[@michaelhopek2286]

One of the best bands. R.I.P.

[@literallyap0tat0-q7q]

This song might honestly be the best album closer I've ever heard. It somehow makes the rest of the album better. It's like crying for the first time in a long time after a deep depression.

[@Rhizzome]

Beautiful description there! This song always kills me 😭

Connor Dennehy Well, you could be right, although there are some other opinions which are considering that the band had split up a few weeks later. A debatable matter. Anyhow it was released in 02.11.

[@NadaCero]

they sound like the Strokes

[@fryewerk]

I think you're generalizing way too much, though I understand the desire to categorize and compartmentalize music- all too common.There is a 60's garage nostalgia, but the atonalities and creativity are not part of The Strokes arsenal. Women had a much more unique sound.

[@Sooperhans3636]

I'm a massive fan of both bands. I can see where you're coming from but Women lack the pop sensibilities of early Strokes music and I love them for it. You have no idea what to expect from one Women's song to the next.

Reminds me a bit more of Brian Wilson.
