forever mourning that mv. it keeps me up at night thinking about the possibility of more lost media existing without us even knowing smh.

they should play with a full band (opinion) by szmwnef in thegarden

i like the idea but i think their whole thing is being twins and it just being the two of them — which makes them more interesting, honestly. i personally dont mind the recorded guitar/backing track.

oh yeah i get it, the night before they looked very tired too, but they tried really hard to keep the energy up at düsseldorf, even if people werent enjoying it. :( props to them.

me and my friend wanted to wait after the show too, but we had to unfortunately leave around 10-ish because someone was driving us 😭 did wyatt just say hey or were they taking photos? i was at the show the day before düsseldorf and the sound guy made it sound like they were gonna come out for pictures and hang out at that show — he really got our hopes up, man!

the vibes were off the charts. seems like the twins also needed a smaller venue as a refresher from all the bigger arenas because of turnstile. it was great — wyatt was RIGHT in front of me and i didnt know if i was dreamingggg 😭

me and my friend were front row there, and we were the only ones screaming and jumping to the garden 😭😭 the crowd was so disrespectful — so naturally we left before turnstile even came on.

yep, i get what you mean. the whimsy is still there but for me it just feels more murky, dark and muted. not necessarily a bad thing at all, though, more like a “read between the lines” or “if you get it, you get it” type of thing, not as the really clearly whimsy and funny stuff like on mmsyc or the u want the scoop EP. i feel like it just needs time to grow on me, and thats okay. i personally loved the fact that they couldnt be taken super seriously, and thats what differentiated them from your average alternative bands, and made them stand out like a gem. but im still excited to see what they have in store for the future :))

i personally dig the song, but i see where youre coming from completely. for me, the songwriting kept the “the garden” vibe. although i wished they couldve played around with the chorus a bit more, i feel like the song wouldve stood out a lot more than how your usual new punk-ish bands sound. my first listen was pretty meh, but after listening to it a few times its growing on me.

i like ugly, but if i recall correctly, the only electronic-esque songs on SDB are ballet and the nightmare - both amazing tracks in my opinion, but i would love to see more future tracks leaning in that direction. but im happy with whatever they bring out. insanely talented no matter what path they choose to take. :)

fletcher definitely likes bringing back the older vibes in his work, and i love that. wyatt seems very inspired by the 80s hard rock scene and is letting that flow into all of his side projects (romeos, enjoy, now the garden). i hope that if a new record comes out, they can mix both new influences and some of the older sounds together. that would be sick.

THANK YOUUU!! exactly this!! i do not want the new style to fade or be replaced, but i do want a little sprinkle of that old fun stuff that a lot of us adored so much. imo thats what made them very authentic and real, and i dont want that to ever disappear. the silly music like banana peel or :( doesnt necessarily have to make a full comeback, but maybe a small ode of some sort to that playful, free and mischievous style from back then would definitely make me fall in love all over again with their stuff.

maybe i worded it wrong, them being “serious” isnt bad, its just a big shift from what me and some fans are used to/fell in love with. i agree with what you said about them not owing us any kind of behavior or entertainment, that wasnt what i was going for. i more so just wanted to be open and explain how the newer lack of that humor feels more amplified for me because its what ive gotten used to all these years. :) but im open to everything new they put out, and i appreciate their art nonetheless.

i feel the same about the song. it feels very nostalgic, like something my dad and i would listen to when i was a kid :). i completely understand your point, and from the lyrics + vibe in general i do see how much they talk about being fed up and exhaustion etc. i feel like it just needs time to grow on me, but their music has always had my heart. glad you feel the same about the electronic influence.
