This just came up on Recommendations! If there's anything I love as a 90s kid, is this diverse range of genres that came out of the alternative scene, not just grunge & Britpop. We're talking shoegaze, dreampop, ska, swing revival, twee, digital hardcore & industrial. Seeing something as new as hyper-rock both takes me back the 90s & hope for more new, crazy genres by young, new gen of musicians in the future. Hope your video blows up.
satoh shared your video on instagram. i actually just got into satoh a day or two ago because i saw him on my youtube recommendations. i really liked your "analysis" on his music
I was pretty intrigued by the title "Weirdest Song I've Ever Heard", So I checked out So Wet Boys, I will agree that it's pretty dang weird, But at the same time it's pretty much what I'd expect a fusion of Hyperpop and Noise Rock to sound like (Actually, At one point while listening to it, The thought "This is if MBV made Hyperpop" ran through my head lol. If memory serves Cocteau Twins were actually the first band to be dubbed "Hyperpop", So maybe they're not far off?), Which doesn't seem that unreasonable due to how noisy Hyperpop often is anyway. I think Stump still takes the cake for weirdest stuff I've heard, So Wet Boys is great song though. Will listen again.
It isn't japanese, but in the vein of Hyper-rock conceptually I really recommend Bent Knee's Frosting. It's a *trip*, essentially a hyperpop album done by a prog rock band. It massively flew under the radar imo because it was a pretty big departure from their previous stuff, but they're incredible musicians and it resulted in something absolutely fascinating and unique. The whole album is incredibly varied and well worth a listen, from the more true rock influenced Hyperpop like Invest in Breakfast and Casper to some of the more abrasive songs like OMG, Rib Woman, and The Upward Spiral. The whole album is just fantastic though, Set It Off and Not This Time are two of my favourite songs of all time. The Audiotree version of Not this time especially.
I am not really a fan of hyper pop or hyper rock, what I have heard reminded of Bite a Shock's (BiSH successor) Patient which was written by (sic)boy , the sound is more pop punk, would you consider that hyper rock?
A bit lost as to what doesn't make jane 'hyper' anything ngl. article gives a good explanation as to why he would say that and on top of that recognizes that census designated is in fact not 'hyper-rock.'
