What bands are still active that are touring this summer and worth seeing?

Not counting the We Were Young festival

good band in the studio but absolutely terrible as a live act and I said so 10 years ago on xo-- this is about music performance nothing more about what they do offstage

Weird comment to me; they are one of the best live acts I've ever seen. Their music sounds better recorded in a studio but their stage presence is unreal and the musicianship is on par with the GOATs

2014 Reflecktor tour with Spoon-- worst stage sound I have ever heard-- just a hot mess of blurred notes and lazy musicianship-- u need to be high to enjoy and with no musical background

I saw them at the Shoreline Amphitheater for a private Google concert before they were getting serious radio play

Had no idea who they were and they blew my fucking mind. I was totally mesmerized

I would never deny your listening pleasure-- but it was such a disappointment for me, since I had such high hopes after a masterpiece like Intervention

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZO7ZWfvCjBE&list=RDZO7ZWfvCjBE&start_radio=1

what I got in a live performance is a bunch of art students pretending to play musical instruments, adding nothing besides simple percussion and thick plodding bass notes to accompany screeching vocals

Get with the times, man. Arcade Fire is geezer tier in 2025. Read the Quietus if you want to get into music from this decade.

It's a new book about the Talking Heads, and right next to that story there's an article about the best albums and tracks from this month.

None of these people have a modicum of talent. This is laptop music. It's low effort. These are people trying to be the hypist edgelords in their bizarre little corner of the world.

Hipster scum you have horrible taste in music but think you're a musical genius. Absolute worst type of person to talk to. Even worse than a normie who likes The Eagles because a key piece of what makes art great to people like you is that no one else knows about it. That's what makes you tick. It's Consuela tier like you're amazed by your own hidden knowledge no one else possesses.
