It's fascinating to hear the origin story of another person's awakening to the brilliance of Alvvays. I can relate so, so much to what you say here. I've been a fanatical fan of many great artists over 5 adult decades, but THIS band has given me more joy, more pleasure, than any other. I cannot even begin to explain it, because I get bogged down in superlatives and it feels like it would take too long and I'm forever missing the main point. You are absolutely correct when you say their work hasn't received the detailed, analytical appreciation it deserves. I come back to the same simplistic explanation again and again: Alvvays are magical.

Charlie is a vogue model what

what a crazy bunch

TIMESTAMPS IN DESCRIPTION

Is this band back together?

I LOVE THIS BAND. Saw ‘em live in June. They’re great.

this is so niche but the queen riff on chaos space marine is probably a result of the music that's played at duxford in the exhibit/interactive experience inside one of the concordes that are there (where don't stop me now starts playing)

i thought that snow globes was about how objects can hold meanings, and that it is our job to give them meaning or smth like that. this doesnt really explain all of the lyrics but it fits

good!

i love Beat Happening!

Hey, y'all, had a wonderful presentation here. I think setting realistic expectations is this band 's greatest strength, I hope you all had a blast and keep playing music for the rest of your life

Imma touch that bassist 1:47 hes soo cute 🥰

the dude at 12:06 is so brave and based, i wonder who he is

I am so touched Lachlan you are so great

it has been a really fun experience playing with you :)

fantastic video lachlan

Respectfully they sound sooo much like Slint on a number of songs from the For the first time era, especially Kendall Jenner IMO

kinda late but the middle names come from the track credits on spotify

7:19 leave my daddy's job out of this!!!!

where is Our Secret in the first LP bro

I’m from Cambridge, and spoke to May after a gig and she said that her, lewis and charlie went to hills road, while isaac, luke and tyler went to long road, with georgia going to school in cornwall

That clip of one of their new songs at the end was so clear… where did you get it from?

I thought I was obsessed with the band 'till I found you.

7:31 I'm a big BCNR fan, but that saying that might be the best cover of all time is way way way way too far

rest in peace trevor 😔

I'm a big fan of Alvvays and have been since the first album. What hooked me, besides, Archie, Marry Me, was the subversive lyrics especially on one of their best songs you skipped over, Ones Who Love You, which I think is one of the best songs of the 2010s. I find that the production of their albums varies greatly and they seem to want to find a Phil Spector wall of sound type sound which they've never quite obtained. Each of their albums are really really good. I found Blue Rev to be the most consistent and my current favorite (also maybe 2022's best) but the eponymous first album and second one, Antisocialites, each had a more substantial song on them so they haven't quite made an all-time classic album yet they are very close and I'd say each album is excellent. You can also tell by the plethora of live videos, they are a tight band and also very unassuming on stage. I kinda get the feeling they are U2 right before the War (arena rock) album or The Cure before Kiss Me Kiss Me Kiss Me and that something will click which will put them into that category because they have the talent and ability to be big if they want that.

Got to see them live 3 times and loved each show, my favorite being at The Fillmore in SF on October 26, 2022

I didn't like Alvvays the first time i listed to them, it was a matter of time, and now they are my favorite band.

Molly’s belting in easy on your own made me do a whole lap when I first heard it, she never misses with the vocals

⛔️⛔️❌❌❌❌❌👎👎👎🙅‍♂️🙅‍♂️🙅‍♂️🙅‍♂️🙅‍♂️

9:05 i was so sure they mustve taken inspiritation from host by oxbow for one of the athens, france riffs and i was going crazy looking for some kind of link between them and the band and finally...

Wow! That's my iceberg!! Never expected to end up seeing it in a video like this but glad folks are enjoying it xx

The only fact i didnt knew was the last one, pt2 will be wild

Hey hey, huge Alvvays fan here! As a song writer I think it just comes down to placing the perfect chords down with the right tone and harmony in the vocals. It starts with what I call the "jingle aesthetic". Think about songs like "God only Knows" on the Beach Boys masterpiece Pet sounds, or many, many pop songs the Beatles wrote such as "Help from my Friends". Most of their songs, are basic chords. Molly also has a voice that sounds perpetually naïve yet has just enough confidence to get the job done. Like one of my all time favourite groups The Cars they snipe all these wonderful hooks, and keep it all as simple as possible. Alvvays drowns it all in reverb, and effects pedals so they have to qualities of a genuine shoegaze act, but if far too tidy. I hope the next album is as good as Rev. I primarily listen to that one via their KEXP live performance where they really show they can do it all without studio help.

i can’t wait till the Trevor meow entry

Awesome

The snow globes lyrics are most likely about a gay person who can't accept their own sexuality due to their religion. "Your friend the one that you loved, did you keep him on your side? Did you ever get to ask what on earth he meant by "We've got to learn how to use our bodies right, but it's for this that god has gave us both the night"

Lol 绝对纯洁on your topster

8:33 its not just 2 short clips that exist on the internet btw if u go on their twitch channel , clips and go on all time theres quite a couple there

this is soooo good but where do you find the never again eps?

six parts? that is like sungalasses!

BRO imma need the BCNR discord link asaaap

I didn't know about Alvvays before watching this, and just by the passion you poured in the video alone, im looking forward to listening to their music. Good job man

They got a lot of hits on both albums. I can list the songs .

Cool to find someone loved up on Alvvays. Unbelievably good band. They create so many re listenable moments. They're going to be one of the most influential bands to many.

missed out an oppurtunity to say the first line of this video like the first line of sunglasses, sick video tho

what a good video you should make a hundred of them

so cool to see videos like this about them! <3

your video is quite informative🥺could i upload these two bcnr clips to bilibili, the Chinese version of RUclips ? I bet that fans from China would really enjoy your videos😢
