can we talk about this video (Hot Fruit's "Falling off the Grid")

Get in on the ground floor with this outfit and ride their coat tails to infamy.

The description on their facebook page says "Musician/Band
it's like::MASTURBATING SO HARD YOU GET YOUR PERIOD FOR THE FIRST TIME"

oh my god

Are there any links to more of their music? There's nothing on their myspace and their website is down.

what the hell

xp thanks

itt hot truth

I am in love.

The synth on the cover of 'That's Weird' is an Elka OMB5 btw.

The lyrics of 'Motel 6' are just brutal, incidentally.

ha i love these guys. they're also releasing a cassette soon(?) through this label/art project run by a guy i vaguely know: http://fakemusic.org/projects/hotfruit/

theyre from olympia, surprise

this reminds me of avenue d

in a good way

I love this

lmao at a girl's comment on my fb link to this video: "i went from being mildly interested to fast-forwarding to see if it got better to eye rolling to i wish good music could exist again to i need to start a country band to never mind, i think i hate all music, including my own."

mission accomplished, at least she wont start a terrible country band

I should have been clearing out these cupboards, but I've been listening to all these tracks instead. I love how there's absolutely no compromise made to the listener at all, no attempt to make the music. Some might label the music as incompetent, but it reminds me of Trout Mask Replica - this is is music that's deliberately been made this way.

otm

my computer at work is v slow but i can't wait to get home so i can watch this in glorious 1080p

no attempt to make the music palatable.
(is what I meant damn this kepboard)

yes yes give them a show yes YES

no attempt to make the music

this is actually a p good descriptor imo

this video is awesome

file me under "confused but generally supportive"

<3

File me under "I'm into shit and blood this".

their youtube views and comments have gone thru the roof

"im gonna make the sky cum"

they just linked this thread on their fb HI LADIES!!!

what? yes! that's so great.

I like it. Reminds me of the Inflatable Boy Clams but also different.

i was sold the moment the chain hit pink ectoplasm

I have watched this
So
Many
Times

It keeps getting better, doesn't it?

AmazinG.

it went from 1,000 to 11,000 views over the last couple days

Yeah I think Everett True talking about it has helped it break bigger.

Hey, if you're still reading this thread, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE come to the UK. There are at least a few good promoters who are either already loving you or are into similar stuff. We can make this happen, plz plz plz.

Ha, that's indirectly my fault (my friend passed it on to him). Love the review, though, actually.

First watch of this I was all
"Urrrgh what is this shit!"
Ten watches later
Friend "What are you up to?"
Me "I wanna make the sky cum, I wanna make the sky cum."
Fantastic song. Love the rest of the tunes.

I knew as soon as I heard there was a reddit thread that I didn't want to read the reddit thread

Sometimes I think that reddit is just an idiot magnet.
I'm listening to this on repeat. It's a 9 minute song, but it doesn't feel anything like as long as 9 minutes. It's not like 'Bohemian Rhapsody', which feels like a real chore to listen to even once.

im scared it was a "friend" of mine who posted it on reddit after seeing it on my fb
the person who started the thread is from east tn :/

this is pretty badass

it is fantastic

this is great, thanking you roxy

you absolutely have to give them a show, you will regret it forever if not.

ok that 1st verse is amazing

also they are all in this video. u just gotta stay tuned til minute 6

these are amazing.

I believe in the HAM-burger
I believe in a coffee pot

i unfortunately have "mini mini mini mini mini mini mini mini fridge" stuck in my head

this thread should be renamed so people can find it. Just bought the album on Bandcamp - looking forward to checking it out in a moment.

yeah rename it plz @mods

find it awesome how many ppl this still pisses off

i believe in the hamburger. i believe in the coffee pot.

mini mini mini mini mini mini

this isn't necessarily good but i don't feel any particular urge to take a stand against it

trying to imagine an EOY traxpoll where this didn't crop up to throw everyone awhack is unpleasant indeed. thank u based fruit.

Four consecutive listens is probably enough for now. This is amazing.

this. so fucking hooky.

the most mindblowing music i've heard in a long time. thank you ilx thank you roxy. thank you HOT FRUIT.

The melody of this song is sort of creepy to me. I think the lyrics and visuals are fun but theres an eerie undercurrent too.., anyone else get this?

Totally

doi!

this still rules

yep!

I have made the claim that this is my favourite song of the '10s. Think it is probably true.

I was thinking about this last week.

I managed to catch their live show. It lived up to the promise of the video but was way too short! stupid DIY aesthetic where the shitty bands get as long on stage as the good ones.

it's obviously a work of genius

RULES!

It is fantastic.

use your motherfucking inside voice

try it just try it out! try it try it try it!

Still awesome.

I mean I like making food so we can make food but like, you have to... you better help me

just rewatched the other day!

was my first thought when the idea of a music video ballot poll was floated

I still think about this song fairly frequently.

I still listen to this song fairly frequently!

I just searched for "Hot Fruit" on Apple Music to see if this song was on there, but all the results were about Gaz Coombes.
