    I'm really happy you liked this. They are a seriously underrated band. I think the genre they fall into is synth pop. I can recommend their song Clearest Blue as the next one of their songs to check out.

      I would not say they are _seriously underrated._ They belong to a smaller genre perhaps. Other genre are so immensely big and commercialized.

    As an old man and a Blue Nile fan most of my life, great to see younger Scottish talent continuing to create great songs.

      On the Screen Violence album track Better If You Don't they mentioned Tinsel Town In The Rain.

    Live videos are one thing, but actually seeing this band live in person is an amazing experience, something I've done twice this year. The atmosphere and energy you feel while your just feet away from the stage is incredible. I'm a bit addicted to Chvrches right now, definitely one of my favorite bands of all time at this point.

    I hope you will listen to more of their songs. Maybe "How not to drown", "Clearest Blue", or "Dead Air".

  • @jazoon7249

    Love Chvrches. Suggest "Clearest Blue" Lauren does not ever need auto tune, so when it is added it is for effect only.

    Ah glad to see you're onto Chvrches. They did a song called Death Stranding for the Hideo Kojima videogame of the same name. You might want to give that a listen too as it's fabulous.

  • @jericoba
    @jericoba 2 роки тому +1

    Fantastic band! So nice to see you watch a more _specialized_ band. They have found their audience for being a new-ish band so heavily invested in synthesizers. Right up my alley.

  • @FlowNeffets
    @FlowNeffets Рік тому +1

    Judged on your expressions, you went through the same stages of "wow!" as me when I discovered them. They exist already for 10 years, this one's from their 4th album. And: They are an absolute blast live, their concerts are more dancing venues! :) Plus: That was a live rendition. That's how on point Lauren's singing is. And they fall somewhere between synth pop and electronic goth rock.

    Lauren is one of my favourite Scottish female singers up there Shirley Manson and Elisabeth Fraser. I saw Chvrches at Osheaga 2014 great show and reminded me of Cocteau Twins. She had me at hello with that Glaswegian accent.

    • @pixelfascination
      @pixelfascination 2 роки тому +1

      Hey Rob. If you like the Cocteau Twins may I recommend (If you haven't heard them already), a band called Seasurfer. The tune Dragon Song is rather splendid. :)

    No comprendo porque tienen menos de 4,5 millones de escvchas al mes en Spotify. Claramente es un grupo minusvalorado. Para mi uno de los mejores desde hace años y por supuesto mi favorito. Son excelentes. Estoy de acuerdo en que Clearest Blue es para mi la mejor. La escucho varias veces al dia y no me canso.😊

    I would like to suggest 'Never Say Die' because I absolutely love her vocals and the synth reverb in that song.

    These guys are self-produced and they really know their stuff. Check out Violent Delights from the same KEXP performance. You will notice that Martin and Iain are producing a majority of the music with Guitar and Bass. They know their pedals as well!

    I always find it pleasing to find a group with a female lead. She just reaches in and gently plucks those heartstrings. Her voice sounds delicate with the potential for mayhem.

    Just getting into Chvrches myself, love this song. Should watch this song in one of the live shows with the blood...
    It is a Vocoder effect, not auto-tune. Imogen Heap Hide and Seek is an extreme example of its use.

    I'm not sure that is auto-tune. To me, from my experience, it sounds more like a ring modulator. Great review nevertheless. Just discovered Chvrches, they are sooo good! :)

  • @mucklemoo9496
    @mucklemoo9496 2 роки тому +2

    Chvrches are a fantastic band, being from Scotland I've been lucky to see them live three times now. They've stated that they have been heavily influenced by 80's synth including Depeache Mode and they are massive fans of Prince.
    They've released four albums up to now, Three of which have been fantastic. The third album, Love is Dead, is arguably there weakest. Screen Violence, there fourth and from which this track is taking from, is imo there best.
    Other tracks to check out would include
    Lies
    The Mother We Share
    Recover
    Clearest Blue
    Bury It
    Never Ending Circles
    Leave A Trace
    Miracle
    How Not To Drown
    Violent Delights.
    These are the ones off the top of my head but there will be others. Loved the reaction and subscribed 👍

    Finally beautiful and super talented LaurenMyberry and crew, fab Chvrches, being reacted to.......this is a great band, and more attention should be like mandatory.....but you two guys, my beloved Beautiful Redhead Lady and her charismatic Bearded Gent keeping it together,, as always. I would suggest you check their last album filled to the rim with awesome songs delivering a very feminist message and I am a 69 year old musician painter and proud granpa....trust me I know what I'm talking about. Now, this is "How Not To Drown" live, featuring The Cure's RobertSmith, just do yourselves a favor and check it out ua-cam.com/video/LfNesY6MR4k/v-deo.html Have a good one!!!!!!
    You should also do some more Wolf Alice, and look up Nothing But Thieves and awesome Biffy Clyro, great Brit bands.......ooops I just saw my suggestion being reacted to WOW!!!
    Luv u guys!!
