What's with all these pop punk bands turning into shoegaze/post-punk bands?
>>55458840why are these shitty genres getting such a bland revival?
>shoegaze/post-punk2010s indie acts need to stop aping these two genres, all they end up doing is watering down both
>>55458893People influenced by a specific genre are never as good as the artists who originally created it. Most "revivals" are thus a shallow imitation and/or a deviation from what the music was about. This is true at least of most I've seen, from nugaze to post-punk revival to retro thrash.
>>55458840which bands that began as pop-punk turned to shoegaze/post-punk? genuinely curious.
>>55458840what the band used to makehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wexPv5olEEwhat they make nowhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TkASFXeAafU
>>55458963Turnover, Title Fight, Seahaven, Citizen
>>55458840I honest don't see the problem with bands such as these trying to expand their sound, the problem though most of them end up sounding like shit. Example title fight
>>55458970first link was brokenhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d34G0ZkJsqw
>>55458999I've honestly never heard of them. I'm fan of post-punk you see, that's why I wanted to know.
>>55458970>>55459079So they played pop before, and now they play pop with more reverb? What's the big deal? I guess they discovered their dad's U2 records.
another examplefrom screamohttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eGXMZQvgNakto thishttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qctKVrTE7jMi like both btw
>>55459115yeah i don't see what the big deal is either. they all influence each other too. also this new turnover isn't too far off from magnolia either
all these bands probably would've been metalcore bands 7ish years ago
>>55459214yeah in my city all the kids who used to be in metalcore bands during high school are now in folk bands because that's the trend here now
>>55459273yeah the kids near me are all still in the pop punk phase but I'm sure that whole indie folk thing is coming soon
BMTH kinda chilled out, but I think that's just because Oli can't scream anymore.
>>55458999for the record seahaven were never pop-punkghost sounds like TDAGARIM
>>55459160what in hell. i moved on from scramz for a while now>>55460019he's not qt anymore either
