The same here. I'm 60, my wife is a bit younger... we discovered this band yesterday while watching MTV (what we never do)... since than we've watched all their videos on TH-cam. WOW... for the first time in many years I have found a new band in which I am very interested!
you are missing out on a shit ton of awesome bands. i love Wet Leg and Nirvana too but come on. feel free to check my DJ playlist by clicking on my name
They've got that elusive talent of writing seemingly effortlessly super catchy tunes. They're great. Makes me think of The Strokes' debut album. One killer song after another.
It’s one thing to burst onto the scene with some catchy tunes and music videos… it’s another thing to be so good live onstage. It’s hard to believe their writing, look and sound wasn't honed over a few albums. In a performance full of surprises, a big one is "Obvious". Fun, fearless and fully formed right out of the gate, I hope their future work isn't altered by big budgets and bigger expectations.
I believe they recorded the first album way before they became popular and started forming a full band. Next album will probably have a lot more energy from all the bandmembers!
ABSOLUTELY! Part of me wants them to re-record the studio album for that reason. (Not happening, I know, and that'd be sort of odd anyway.) I just want the world to hear them like this (live, in the groove, super-tight).
Wow. Terrific video of a terrific concert by a terrific band. These kids are all right. If their parents loved the Kinks and the Who like I do, they are proud and happy.
Band : Blowing heads off shoulders with their sound. Audience : sorry… we have been inside for 2 years. Ester is cool as 🤬 Drummer is the first I’ve heard that plays similarly Keys and guitar… you are the flavor baby. Lead… gettem girl. Thank you guys for pushing on. I finally picked up my instruments again. Thanks for the insperation. 🕊
I appreciate the truth in the lead singer’s voice, the rest of the band joins in oaccordingly and sympatheticly, I love the feeling and fun nature the band have, very festival vibes like Florence n the machine, you can listen to them all day long ❤ very hip 😎
@@user-gk3kv4fl2m And yet Led Zeppelin did the same thing and people lost their shit because Bonham hit the drums harder than Ringo did. Not everything has to be original, almost nothing is anyway. Time to piss up a rope, "friend".
Oh c'mon, now we know cuz your whole face is lying. Did you know that some of us here are living the eternal life dream? We've aLways been here, and death has no power over our continuity of consciousness continuum. I was called to witness for wet Leg when their father, whom y'all know as "God" gave them each one, their weight in schmaltz, preserved and protected by another band of young brothers you may have heard of...no, not young in age, the brother's name was young, now they're old, crotchety, and probably at a wet Leg concert right now... But if I can give you a gift of gifts,, and hug of hugs, yeah talking about them crazy boys from New Hope Pennsylvania.... Gene & Dean Ween. There's simply too much to tell about their journey from extremely shameless beginnings, to the trainwreck of the last 8 years, culminating in Deaner's message to all Ween fans that he didn't' feel he could muster up enough show for the dough that people were putting down to go see them. Respect that kind of integrity and authenticity, disappointed because the boognish will not be rising from the mist no more...
3 guitars.... 4 if you include bass. Can't go wrong. Of course a great tight tasty drummer helps and they got that. Add pretty girls with quirky unique sound and style. Great recipe. They are going far if they keep this up.
Strange how the 1980's new wave is back....Lead singer reminds me of a female David Byrne. It seems so easy for them to sing....almost taking and playing with the words as if it's very natural. This band must be attracting a lot of older folk. I'm 55. ;)
@@miked4309 unfortunately must disagree. Many bands i love who started out strong, recording & live, lost much over the years & can not bring the energy they once had or have enough heart to even seen to care as much. Still hold all they once did & try not to let to affect good memories.
@@miked4309 some bands sound like sh*t live, some bands are meant to be recorded live... Pearl Jam is one, except for Ten I hate almost all their recordings, but live they sound as they should, Live on Two Legs is how all of their songs should sound like.
Ha! They got better!! How was that possible? It's all tighter, better equipment, nice sound variations and closer harmonies .... and the keyboard man is back too so it's all great if not even better! 👍 ☺
First time I’ve heard them, great sound. Takes me back 30 yrs, not quite pixies yet but not a million miles away. Got a bit of boomtown rats vibe too, but it may just be the Celtic accents.
@@roguealien423 I thought they were from isles of Mann, my bad. But of course the interesting thing about the isle of white is that at the time of first Neolithic settlers the sea levels were about 10 meters lower than they are today.

Best guess at lyrics "Obvious" I'm old, I'm young I burned my tongue But isn't that obvious It's all so obvious

This is my favorite fucking band this year. I was a sound guy before I broke my neck at work. Fucking favorite band in Canada (obtw, maybe I can still do a proper job.) Don't be stranded, if Lockerbies have anything to say today?
I am Irish and Scottish. I am made of bagpipe melodies. I gotta reach into this. Maybe Ireland kicked Scotland in the gonch. I hope we can still help each other after the schoolyard. That's all I can say right now.
Finally good sound and lights! You deserve the best! About time we got some stoner\grunge band on the charts again. Yeah i know its called indie now. Keep Rocking :)
At the age of 68 I've become a fanboy again. I adore everything about this band. They appear incapable of writing a bad tune.,

It's a great feeling to have a favorite band again 😁
mine is the last supper
I died 13 years ago and seeing this new band I feel born again, love them ❤️

I'm 60 and this is the only band since Nirvana that I dig. Keep it Wet!
Are you my lost twin? 😀 60 here too and the last rock band that got me excited was also Nirvana.
I'm only ("only") 50 and I feel the same way!
Ditto. 60 as well. Band is soooo good. I was in a garage band back in the day... We called ourselves The Dead Bugz, LOL. Good times.

Thats a long time to not be digging bands.
Such a throwback to days when it was all about the song and with serious attitude and expression! This band is fantastic!
Possibly the worst band name I've ever heard though

Without serious attitude and expression you wouldn't have had the genius of Siouxsie and the Banshees 🤘🤘

The epitome of - we may not be good, but were great.. Simple, interesting, unique, expressive, honest, refreshing. Nothing sounds like it. Kudos
the music is pop, it's catchy and quirky but the lyrics are edgy, bold and honest.
that's a mix that people really like
Their live act has a f**k load of energy the recorded track doesn't have. LOVE it.
I believe they recorded the first album way before they became popular and started forming a full band. Next album will probably have a lot more energy from all the bandmembers!
This is definitely their best live set
Essence of the 90s indie bands runs deep and it's great.
They get better with each performance. This is the best recording yet of their concerts!
ABSOLUTELY! Part of me wants them to re-record the studio album for that reason. (Not happening, I know, and that'd be sort of odd anyway.) I just want the world to hear them like this (live, in the groove, super-tight).

I’m a Sumerian from 4,000 BC. You might not believe this, but down in Sumer the band is a real big hit with the kids and 60 year old men.

Well done for posting the full version with "Obvious" included.
Yeah Obvious is a great song and a great slow diwn in the middle of their set.
Agree! And what a gorgeous version of it at this show.
Don't know why they cut it.it was included in the net.

I listen to death metal but I love this act 🐊
This band is pretty good 👍
This is a great video of them live! I think Obvious (11:31) might be my new favourite Wet Leg song. So beautiful!

It shows off Rhian's vocal range I think.
