Bands I tried to like while growing up because I thought it would make me cool but I ultimately found to be weirdly joyless:

- Arcade Fire
- The xx
- Radiohead
- Sigur Rós
- Animal Collective
- Neutral Milk Hotel

@kyle I tried so hard with Animal Collective, listening over and over again but just couldn’t connect
@nancywisser these are all psyops
