I came across some clipping of Chaise Longue last night while scrolling through youtube shorts and now Wet Leg is an instant hit for me. Praise be to the Algorithm!
when you watch the growd many look like they‘re in a later stage in life and it makes me so very happy that they are out here enjoying life. It‘s also not surprising how on their official music video the comment section is full of people reminicing of their own youth hearing similar music in the 90s etc.
I’m a 59 year old hard rock /heavy metal guy and I like what I just heard. It’s unique , fun, quirky and is a cool song. I will check out this band further.
Way back when Rhian and Hester were just a couple of friends from the Isle of Wight, when they were two not-so-successful singer-songwriters working on silly songs to crack each other up, when Rhian was occasionally kipping on Hester's chaise longue (true story) - would they have ever even imagined the whole of Glastonbury shouting, "WHAT?"
@@dovestones i was bopping to this just now, then they went into the chorus jam for the third time and i was like, "now that i think about it they've just been doing the same thing this whole time. what redeems this song are the lyrics, until you listen to the rest of their ep. to be honest it all just sounds like "hey there i really don't like men here's a bunch of stories about how fucked guys are." It's like every song is about pretty much the same thing. it's pop, with a fuzz pedal, and AN AMAZING DRUMMER.
Saw Wet Leg in San Francisco back in December, just 6 short months ago, at a small club with maybe 200 people. It is astonishing how fast they exploded.
Not too sure, but I saw them a month ago and it was a bit of a let down, beyond the 2 catchy tunes. I hope they can see that and work beyond the flat empty tunes.
@@Insertnameher3 What does that even mean? They're on an Indie label and the label's job is to promote them, no one paid the crowd to be there to make them seem popular.
Would love to see them live someday! Really, they look like they're having so much fun be it on stage on in their videos. Can't help but sing along and smile!
@@Mikee22ification I really appreciate this comment, as I'd forgotten I ever heard the song or made the comment. I must follow the band now. Thank you!
At 72, I never thought that I would be amazed again with another band; seen and heard it all, yada, yada, yada. Such a superb band, stage presence, humour and the reaction from the crowd is awesome.
Rhian Teasdale (aka Rhain) has performed for years as a solo artist. She said she found that stressful whereas for her playing in a guitar band is fun.
Same here,was travelling back home with my daughter and grandkids when she made a offhand remark about it being a bit rude when it played on the radio.so I looked them up and been watching them a lot ever since!
I saw them as an opening act, so a complete coincidence, I didn't even know they were playing but my god I loved them so much, and I'm now going to see them for the third time :)
This is a new band to watch who will go far! Great talents and pure genius… it takes me back to my student years in the early 80s…with the smiths, new order( ex- joy division), souxisie and the banshees, the cure and more… the tune overall, the vocals, the drummer what a set of stars together with all guitar supporters! British music arts are with good safe hands…Punk-rock lives on!
Yeah well when you mention talents and genius I take it you really mean the Banshees and the Cure both of them were on a much higher level than this lot 🤘🤘
You can see it clearly at 0:13 into the song. Rhian is very happy and feeling the moment because there under that big band name banner, she knows this song they are about to play got them to Glastonbury. For both of them, Glastonbury with their own band is a childhood dream come true. This is one of the biggest moments in their life.
In the full gig she fluffed a couple of times and Hester was with her all the way coaxing her and caring, its a beautiful friendship ive never seen two performers so close to each other
@@robgoudie1540 So whats your band? Been signed to a label? Care to point us towards some of your brilliant music. Which has millions of views.. Thought not. And that, boys and girls, is the voice of the total loser who will never ever achieve anything in their small petty and utterly pointless little life. That runt in the corner who always has the "smart" remark. Which is never actually funny. But always has the snide remark against those who actually do something with their lives. In this case make music that other enjoy. And have lots of fun while doing it.
The butter your muffin lyric is what makes this song for me. Finally Mean Girls getting the recognition it deserves in modern pop culture. You go Glen Coco!
The moment I saw their live performances on the internet I thought they could be that rare instance of new acts that should already headline big festivals. They have that really fun and strong stage presence without overdoing it and that the crowd would be into.

😂😂
One for his grandkids…”listen…that’s grandpa!”

By the time they reach the second chorus he gets it right! Lol
Haaaa
Shout out to the lobsters in the crowd. They really added to the joyful vibe.
Rock lobsters
They have been going for years. Props lads 🎉
The lobsters make a lot more sense if you watch the music video for Wet Dream.
And the big golden D lol
Easily amused
I am 55 years old and I love the band, often play the album at home and on my play list when I am out and about. ❤

Watch the tiny desk and porch live performances. They're great and 'Too Late Now' is an absolute banger.

49 and discovering a lot of "new" music on XMU Sirius station. Heard this one today. The kids are all right!!!
I'm 62 and sing this at karaoke!
I'm 68 and me too!
Get back to The Beatles you!!!!
That guitar break is just the bomb.
A punk groove, that makes you want to dance.
Yeah …it’s so punk …
the furthest thing from punk possible lol
right? very simple arrangement but oh so fun to hear
It's more pixies/breeders/sonic youth etc
First time I’ve heard or seen these. Like really vanilla and so current lol? Brainless crap comes to mind. On the chez long lol wtf
Fuck load of attitude with the guitars,catchy tune,two beautiful women,all in all a brilliant band.cant wait to see them live
i'm 59 and i love this band. kids these days are quite awesome
They are even more awesome live! I have been dancing round like a loon for months to this!!!

Saw Wet Leg in San Francisco back in December, just 6 short months ago, at a small club with maybe 200 people. It is astonishing how fast they exploded.
Saw them in Columbus, Ohio in February(?) in a small venue. Big difference. It was a good concert.
Industry plant

At our age it's a joy that we can be excited by 'new' music when life in general can have no surprises any more 👍
That looked like an awesome festival, so many people having a great time. Loving Wet Leg.
Good stuff.
What a delightful new band these guys are. Never heard em before. Their performance was my personal highlight of a great festival👍
Sometimes the best act in a festival is the guys you've never heard of.
I've never seen performers so calm with such a great stage presence.
Clearly not been to many gigs, These cats tear it up but wouldn't say they have the best stage presence out there

Absolutely amazing got me hooked instantly when I heard this
Great drummer. All my drumming mates have been raving about him.
Hey do you like The Doublejumps? it's a bit like Wet Leg styles ✌✌
3 minutes 30 seconds of immense sonic pleasure ✨❤
I’ve listened to this song a thousand times.
I love the eccentric vibes from this quite simple song haha
Saw them at BIG WEEKEND and they really light the crowd up, great festival band, looking forward to see what comes next 🙂
Only recently discovered this band on English radio. OMFG!!! They are epic!!!
I had started playing them on my show in the UK some months back before they blew up, phenomenal band
I remember when it came out
Still listing to it 2024

Never heard of them?! They've just had a number one album in the U.K!
