They’re playing the Warfield on Market Street on New Years Eve. Unfortunately, they don’t do very many live shows. Argh. I was planning to make a trip down to San Fran sometime soon, but that’s too soon.
I saw this commercial, thought it was just a local Socal one, but I guess not. They are too hipster for my taste, and the dead, soulless face she constantly makes creeps me out. They are not for me. I remember when they came up on QT3 before, and it’s good for them that they are getting some exposure, but…yeah.
That’s funny because her ‘look’ is what makes their act for me. Otherwise they’d just be another wannabe Youtube music group. Instead, they are immediately identifiable.
Jesus christ, really? People like these clowns? That hyundai commercial makes me crazy. I want Dethklok to bust out of the screen and punch them in their hipster faces. With an axe.
Not saying there was anything wrong with the thread, just pointing out some other places they’ve popped up. (I probably should’ve clarified that, given the local internal-link idiom)
What I mean is, if you go to the main Youtube page and if they have a video there you can spot it immediately.
Contrast that to all the other singers who have nondescript videos(with equally unrecognizable thumbnails). I imagine there must be a lot of hipsters on Youtube, but I can’t think of even one other hipster singer who is as recognizable. So, creepy/awkward/unsettling as that look may be, it serves its purpose remarkably well.
Hi, we’re Pomplamoose! We’re a girl with a pixie haircut and a bad Regina Spector impression and a scrawny spastic guy singing twee songs desperately attempting to sound like an iPod commercial.
My hipster friend LOVES them, and is very negative about the commercials. I am negative about the commercials because they are robbing me of the soothing tones of Jeff Bridges voice.
