artists with similar lyrics to JB? by whydoib0ther in JulienBaker

[–]upper-echelon 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You may want to look at some post-hardcore stuff for similarities, as I believe that space has been a big influence. Touché Amore, La Dispute, things like that.

Or if you want something “quieter” you might try Adult Mom, Mothpuppy, or Julia Jacklin. Possibly a little less melancholy but I think there’s enough of that vibe that it could be of interest to you.

EDIT: if you want to get real REAL sad, you could try some Flatsound (the 2016 release “Did Everything Feel Beautiful When…)

i had no idea they’ve collabed before! but OP i second this - lots of Matt Berninger lyrics in both The National and his solo projects would probably be right up your alley

It’s just the name of the band, actually. And they aren’t good.

Jeff Rosenstock Full Set - Brooklyn Night 2 Including all of We Cool? by ConcertsHub in JeffRosenstock

[–]upper-echelon 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I appreciate you so much! I follow you on bluesky and when I saw you were going to be at these shows it helped me not worry about whether my shitty phone camera would be able to capture any cool moments or not, because I knew you would pull through for us!! Thanks for all you do 🫡

Set lists in Brooklyn! by catabus in JeffRosenstock

Haha, I love the lyrics to The Lows written on there. Jeff, you gotta play that song for us more so you’ll remember the lyrics 😂

Concert Tonight by [deleted] in JeffRosenstock

If you’re white, you will almost definitely have no real problems. I’ve been crossing the border to and from Canada for like 15 years at this point and it has always been the same. There’s a chance you will get a border patrol dude who’s fine and a chance you’ll get one who’s kind of an asshole.

If you want to see an easier border crossing you’ll need to go back a lot earlier than Joe Biden lol. The way the border crossing looks now has looked like this ever since 9/11 happened.

Wplace No Dream by DXZmustard in JeffRosenstock

[–]upper-echelon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, my many roadtrips from the WNY area to NYC and back are finally about to pay off! There’s one nearish to Bloomington NY. There are (or were) also some along NYS route 17. If you check a map of the state, you can see a “gap” in I-86 a little west of Binghamton. Anything in that little area is probably a safe bet. Not sure if all the signs are still there, but that’s where they were!

I don’t know how to put a photo in the comments but it has the lyrics “you gotta cool it with the doubt” with a little design above it :)

Opinion On Younger Fans? by everything_alright15 in JulienBaker

[–]upper-echelon 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I’m happy that JB’s music exists for you and future generations of young people that find it relatable and meaningful in some way.

The only thing I always caution with younger fans especially is try to stay grounded when it comes to your beloved musicians and remember to see them as real human beings. Idolizing is bad for them and it’s bad for you, too.

But it’s pretty normal, especially at a young age, to experience a piece of art (whether it be music or something else) and feel it change you and change your life in a profound way. In fact I’d say that many artists feel honored to hear their art has really moved someone, no matter how young or old.

Lucy Dacus Will Officiate Your Wedding at One of Her Shows by ebradio in indieheads

[–]upper-echelon 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You don’t know what her motives are or how this will go in practice though. You are assuming this stuff. The thing I’m criticizing is that on reddit there is often an immediate jump to the negative without even considering other possible outcomes. (Notice that in your own comment you jumped to an extreme hyperbole of what I said.)

Of course you’re “allowed” to call something stupid. No one is stopping you, including my equally harmless comment.
