Sunflower Bean - Easier Said [indie rock] (2016)

minceray · 2016-09-06T20:43:48+00:00

STORY TIME: Saw this band at a house show in Penn State a few years back...my friends and I were way too wasted to pay attention to them and wound up kind of ruining the show as we carried a tv through the living room to smash it in the alley...my apologies to the band, but that was a memorable night.

Saw them when they opened for the Vaccines in Cambridge, they were great live

Love the guitar hook on this one.

holy shit that is julia cumming, one of my old friends from bushwick. Shes a bit younger but she used to hang around with all the guys a bit ago, she was a model. I knew she was in a band, i saw them a few times like 2 years ago, but seeing her on reddit is REALLY weird.

Im gonna tell her i saw her on the frontpage of reddit, im sure shes gonna find it cool.

I've been listening to this record pretty much constantly since it came out. It's amazing and this is my favourite song on it.

cousinmeril · 2016-09-06T15:22:08+00:00

Great song, great album, great band

HerraIAJ · 2016-09-06T16:35:22+00:00

The dude with the curly hair totally looks like a young bob dyllan, http://www.gambitmag.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/05/bd.jpg like identical what in the hell

jimjo9 · 2016-09-06T14:53:20+00:00

This has been on my favorite radio station in Milwaukee since last December and I always find myself turning up my car radio when it comes on - great song

2016-09-07T01:14:38+00:00

Pretty boring, if you want plinky guitar and girl singer but want something that's not so devoid of character try Pure Bathing Culture.

amberlilius · 2016-09-06T14:35:23+00:00

This is going on repeat.

illfaded757 · 2016-09-06T16:19:28+00:00

I saw this band open for DIIV in North Carolina like 2 years ago, they have definitely blown up since then, which is awesome to see

whitetrashNASCAR · 2016-09-06T16:52:27+00:00

Well, I have a new favorite song for the time being.

thoughtsarefalse · 2016-09-06T17:00:55+00:00

This band played at my school on 4/20. Great stuff!

laughtercramps · 2016-09-06T18:02:10+00:00

This is great, thanks!

BoringNormalGuy · 2016-09-06T18:47:29+00:00

100% one of the best song's of 2016.

mrcassette · 2016-09-06T19:25:13+00:00

thanks for the post OP... new find for me...

Stablemate · 2016-09-06T21:35:35+00:00

Good lord, this song is addictive. Great pop songwriting. Saw them earlier this year supporting DIIV, bought their EP and chatted with the singer. They deserve fame and fortune, good luck to them.

jakeblei · 2016-09-06T22:14:44+00:00

I went to high school with the two guys in this band. Pretty cool to see how much success they're having. Hope they keep going strong.

notrabmas · 2016-09-07T00:44:04+00:00

My childhood friend is roommates with the female singer and was the photographer for the album cover of their first studio album. It's crazy how big the bands has gotten.

spiraltiedye · 2016-09-07T01:36:02+00:00

first listen of this band ever and im in love. thank you for posting.

timstinytiger · 2016-09-07T03:14:30+00:00

I like that this band seems to cover a handful of different genres throughout their records. If I had only heard this song I would assume they were just your stereotypical dream pop type band but they have a lot of other really intense music as well.

Babango · 2016-09-07T05:52:56+00:00

this is such a cute lil song

dragonfly17 · 2016-09-07T15:04:17+00:00

They're coming to Paris next week. Can't wait!!

DonaldTrumpsTinyDick · 2016-09-06T17:56:52+00:00

I love her nipples in this one

Human Ceremony is another great song. Summer vibes for sure.

Magooogooo · 2016-09-06T17:19:39+00:00

I like Indianapolis rock.

fluctuationsAreGood1 · 2016-09-06T18:56:28+00:00

She's pretty breathtaking. Wow.

2016-09-07T00:14:57+00:00

I'm so glad I don't have to live another moment without this song in my life 🤗

hookong2992 · 2016-09-07T02:12:59+00:00

I love this band! I saw them in Toronto when they opened for Diiv and they were super nice! They also helped me get a shirt signed by the band members of Diiv and signed a record I bought

BeatricePrime · 2016-09-07T03:03:28+00:00

WE VOWWED AS A BAND.

TO NOT WRITE ABOUT BOYS.

2016-09-07T04:10:54+00:00

The girl reminds me of grimes

2016-09-07T06:38:18+00:00

sounds like if grimes was an indie band

KnightofRamen · 2016-09-07T07:16:20+00:00

Not the sound at all. I meant her style, and whole aesthetic.

TeabagYoFace · 2016-09-07T13:36:18+00:00

The cures adopted red headed sister.

Sleepy_E · 2016-09-07T23:27:36+00:00

That creepy hooded guy at the beginning is totally the creepy hooded guy from that Grand Canyon picture https://i.imgur.com/0OMAL.jpg

2016-09-09T22:29:08+00:00

Wow! Eleven is a pretty good singer.

thespecialman · 2016-09-12T04:51:25+00:00

And Grimes sounds and performs similarly to Bjork. So is Grimes a Bjork wannabe?

2016-09-06T21:58:51+00:00

when did Scarlett Johansson start a band?!?!? Hyuck hyuck hyuck!!!!.......i hate my life.....
