The Golden Rule: Music taste is subjective so don't be a gatekeeping asshole. There's no "bad music", only music you like or don't like.

Alvvays - Blue Rev [2022] (www.youtube.com)

I might be late to the party, but I saw this band last week for the first time after hearing almost nothing of theirs before (went mostly for their co-headliner Alex G), and WOW - what a performance. Their latest record has been living rent-free in my head ever since. I haven't been this blown away by an indie pop record in years, maybe since Beach House's Bloom. From start to heartbreaking finish, not a minute wasted. I recommend a listen.

I can't tell you how much I love Alvvays. They are playing my city in December and I can't wait to see them.

Enjoy! I'll definitely see them again if/when they come back my way.
