Roy Orbison and the Smiths. But they have managed to create their own style. This song is an earworm. I listened to other of their songs and they are also great. But I keep playing this one over and over. Once I get a bit tired I'll move on to the rest. Great band.
You're right. I'm 74 and still listening to indie music. Luckily I have a Chicago radio station that plays the new stuff. WXRT. I've never heard a Taylor Swift song ever. Rock music by definition is young people , new ideas.Love the old stuff but indie rock must always be going forward.
The next huge Indie band. They don’t have a single bad song. Every song they do is its own masterpiece. I love the different decades of Styles they’re mixing in the songs. Hints of Rockabilly and really elaborate “Smiths” style arrangements with a bit of the Strokes and the Fratellis mixed in. Also a singer who is a unique combination of Roy Orbison and Elvis. I can’t wait to see what they do next!
@mikedavis8008 lol did you try to start some retro band that went nowhere, then discovered these guys and saw that they were everything you hoped for yourself only way better which shattered your hopes and dreams, straight ether to your soul, weeping into the glow of your computer screen, your bruised ego in barely hanging on as it set in just how much better these guys are than you ever were or could be. Wounded and in a fit of despair, you couldn't help but lash out by spending all afternoon here weeping about how they are thieves and a terrible band. Adding "lol" to the end of all 20 of your comments was a nice touch, I'm sure I speak for everyone when I say I found the "lol" signoff very convincing.. you seem like you're having a blast and aren't remotely petty or salty about anything. haha! Very cool, I bet this band is gonna be soooooo mad at your epic truth bombs ahahahaha man plus u called them posers lol bro u ENDED this band today with your comments. They cant EVER come back from that, it's game over for these lamer posers hahahaha!!!
@mikedavis8008 you left something like 20 tearful comments on this video today, each one ending with "lol" as though you're having a blast and not remotely upset. You also liked your own comments. Based on these factors, you seem like a very cool and self assured person who has done well in life and isn't remotely insecure, envious or petty. Inspiring. It's rare to see someone so confidently walk their own path. You're the real deal, it's clear as day. lol.
...this is the birth of a new standard in "queer love songs"...this is definitely one song many queer artists will be covering in the generations to come... 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I saw them opening for LoveJoy this last Wednesday and I can say for a Fact now one of my favorite bands! Love them and hopefully will be seeing them March 2 in Chicago again !!
@mikedavis8008 I bet as soon as the vocalist went into the first verse on this song you realized you had a half chub that was quickly gaining momentum.... embarrassed and livid that your lil guy was swooning hard for this singer and his gorgeous voice (and head of hair), you were left with no choice but to exact revenge and bombard this comment section, leaving comment after comment venting spleen and dishing very cool insults like "poser" in a non-ironic way. It's clear you're a very authentic and unique person. You're not blind like the rest of the sheeple. No... you're a deep thinker, you see the world differently. I didn't even know people like you actually existed, I thought it was just in big Hollywood movies that such fearless trailblazers like you even existed. In a world of fakers and posers, you're the real deal. I can't even imagine the depths of your courage as you endure the agony and despair of existing alongside so many losers and nerds. Your fierce bravery to speak truth to power here in the comment section is proof of your individuality. On behalf of all us lame posers, I apologize that the singer for this band got you all salty and moist, but nevertheless there's no denying the obvious truth - you're mad at yourself, not this band.
So glad the algorithm led me to this band. They're the real deal - a hybrid of atmospheric post punk and mid century rock n roll, top shelf songwriting chops from start to finish on every single song, endless hooks, dreamlike melodies, immersive songs unafraid to take risks, switch tempos, you name it. And all of it tied together by an incredibly dynamic and enigmatic frontman with an impeccable style and stage presence and a voice that really helps push these songs to perfection. I was immediately floored by his voice, shades of a modern day Roy Orbison, this voice is total perfection and live he has the mannerisms and stage presence of a true rock frontman, something that's been strangely absent from the genre for decades. Everything about this group seems dialed in just right. Apologies if I'm coming across as overhyping, I just can't get over how good these songs are! It's so rare that I discover a band who absolutely hits on all cylinders for me. Hope I can see this band live in a smaller intimate venue soon, before they blow up and are doing stadium tours alongside Interpol.
I’ve loved them since I saw them live October 2022… I can’t explain how much I adore their sound and style, such a breath of fresh air in today’s music scene!! Absolutely LOVE this song and I can’t wait to see the boys live again in December!! ❤️
I LOVE this song!!😍💃🏻🎙🎶🎵🎼 I heard it last year for the first time and had to play it 20 more times immediately!This guy is a natural shining ⭐ star- his voice is epically graceful, and the power when he belts looks effortless. One of my favorite lifelong hobbies has been to discover bands and artists long before they have huge followings. I am excited to say that these guys - along with one other band -are my new favorites and I look forward to seeing a live show at an intimate venue ASAP, because this band is destined for stadiums....if that's what they want of course 🌠(bc not all musicians do).
@mikedavis8008 lmao you left over a dozen weepy comments on this video, and you liked every single one of your own comments. What a tool lol I'm guessing the singer for this band stole your gf, blew your mom's back out, or both. Thoughts & prayers for your recovery.
This song reminds me of the scene from Animal House, where the guy is in the frat house, sitting on the stairs, playing an acoustic guitar and singing “I gave my love a cherry that had no stone…”
this is so unoriginal i'm kind of offended. the whole 50's revival sound has been done to death, and the morrissey impersonator doesn't really add anything.
Just saw the band on CBS and I love them. I'm 75 and he reminds me of Elvis and Roy Orbison !!! 2 of my favorite from my ten years !!
Roy Orbison and the Smiths. But they have managed to create their own style. This song is an earworm. I listened to other of their songs and they are also great. But I keep playing this one over and over. Once I get a bit tired I'll move on to the rest. Great band.
I'm 66. And Morrissey. Amazing. I hope they make it
John Hughes would have been using their music 👍
This band needs to play the Roadhouse on Twin Peaks
Morrissey....re-born. Love it!
I heard this for the first time today on the radio. It totally blew me away and made fall in love instantly.
What a voice.
Man sounds like Elvis and Roy Orbison. Kickass
Anyone who says new music is crap needs to listen to these guys.
And then I came to find what I was looking for haha!
It's not new. An old song performed by an Elvis impersonator wanna-be.
@@davet1081AA It's a different song with a similar name.
You're right. I'm 74 and still listening to indie music. Luckily I have a Chicago radio station that plays the new stuff. WXRT. I've never heard a Taylor Swift song ever. Rock music by definition is young people , new ideas.Love the old stuff but indie rock must always be going forward.
I love this so much, I can't even!!! He's like if Morrissey and Roy Orbison had a baby
I thought it was Elvis’ grandson!
OMG, I just discovered this band 2/24/ 2024 I have a new favorite band . AMAZING!!!!!!
I know! What's happening?? Something is happening!
They were amazing when I saw them open for the Last Dinner Party! I'm so happy I had a chance to see something so unique. Beautiful music
What a show that must've been with two brilliant acts!
sensational!
I'm obsessed with this band ❤❤❤❤❤
Obsessed with these guys right now - come to Seattle!
Amazing voice. Amazing song. Great band. Already in my playlist on Spotify.
Huge support from a Frenchman living in Italy.
The next huge Indie band. They don’t have a single bad song. Every song they do is its own masterpiece. I love the different decades of Styles they’re mixing in the songs.

He is more Morrissey than anyone else.
So agree!
Mamma i wanna be Morrisey
Yep, I'm really diggin it.

Wes Leavins is the best singer to coming along since Robert Plant - yet still a pop singer and totally unique - rain in the desert
Just learned of this band about 2 weeks ago as they are getting played on our local radio station. Quite impressive.
Oh my. It's like Morrissey meets Roy Orbison. I just heard this in wxpn Philly. Blew my mind.
Yeah, true!
These guys will still be around in 20 years...if not 50!

SAME BRO !!!
That's what I thought, but the gimmick gets old pretty quick.
Awesome song, awesome sound!!!
Also love those unique floor tom flourishes the drummer serves up across their songs.. really creative drummer they got behind the kit, a perfect fit!
The Saturday morning show on CBS brought me here and ill never leave this Band with hints of Smiths/elvis/chris Issac influences .
@mikedavis8008 ya plagiarizing too 😂
@mikedavis8008 You're mad at yourself, not this band. No shame in finding out you're bicurious, but don't project onto others, respectfully.
Pumped for this
My man, when is your album coming out?
@@andyreaver1962 Singles starting to drop in early 2024 :) Just a couple more months 🫶
Great Sound.
Thursday night Bottom Lounge in Chicago is going to be GREAT. CAN. NOT. WAIT!
This brought me back to the eighties in a very Jazz Butcher Conspiracy kind of way and I am LOVING it!
Exactly! Where's my creepers? I'm going out!
How does this band only have 2k subscribers??? I feel like I'm back in the 80's watching Duran Duran on MTV for the first time!

@mikedavis8008 *vocalist for Mommy Calls Me Her Little Helper has entered the chat*
Shine on boiz.✨
Oh my godddddd! This band is incredible!
Maybe this song is for that cute “Eddie” in the movie “Eddie and the Cruisers”. Michael Pare was gorgeous!
everything about this song is perfect!! love it :)

Simply beautiful!
I hope you guys make it down to Austin, Texas. I'm loving what I hear and see.
Just gets better every time I listen.
Moz and Roy with a touch of Elvis.
at 1'15'' I can hear Morissey 🙂 That's crazy!
True but a much more powerful voice with tremendous range.
@@vivalaletaI don't know about that. It's pretty good but Morrissey has all the same power and range, especially these days.
@@sweetnuthin Apparently other people agree with me. I'll also add that Morrissey is an asexual narcissist.
Yayyyy❤
wow a song from 1967 but in 2024
passadooo , i love it guys !
Can never get over 2:39
Seems like a sly Nat King Cole reference 😏
This kills. I needed this
Great song!
Love this band, hints of The Smith's here
Amazing as usual
They might sound like The Killers and The Smiths but the sound is very original retro. Great stuff.
@mikedavis8008 lmao you left over a dozen weepy comments on this video, and you liked every single one of your own comments. What a tool lol I'm guessing the singer for this band stole your gf, blew your mom's back out, or both. Thoughts & prayers for your recovery.
良い。好き。
来日したときはライブ行きたい！
This song reminds me of the scene from Animal House, where the guy is in the frat house, sitting on the stairs, playing an acoustic guitar and singing “I gave my love a cherry that had no stone…”
Damn, it's almost like Elvis has come back to us!
@mikedavis8008good job upvoting your own comment
KOOL 1!
Cannot wait for the EP later this month!
A Star
Woah. Cleanup aisle… my pants!!! Amazing!
Come to Canada.
良すぎる
Love it. I only wish I could find on iTunes. Wouldn’t be great if this group collaborated with Stephen Sanchez?
Makes me cry
A mix of Elvis and Morrissey.
Tulee The Smits mieleen, mutta hyvässä mielessä 😊. Tykkään kovasti, ja erittäin hyvä bändi hänellä, joten iso käsi heille👌❣️
Were you all influenced by The Smiths?
kind of reminds me of Elvis.
buttertones × Orville peck × moz
If roy orbison and Morrissey had a baby lol
Morresy?
I thought he was impersonating Morrissey, but he sings much better.
Doesn’t he look a little like Conan O’Brien?
Morrissey wanna-be. The hair, the voice, the t-shirt, the way he moves. C'mon man!!!
this is so unoriginal i'm kind of offended. the whole 50's revival sound has been done to death, and the morrissey impersonator doesn't really add anything.
That's a real Roy Orbison influence you are hearing. Morrissey is a poor imitation of Orbison.
@mikedavis8008 lol you forgot to like one of your comments.
Lyrically, musically and vocally derivstive. Awful.
Mainstream next year for sure, great band
Orville Peck, anyone??
mixed w buttertones
