I'm 55 and if I had listened to this in my early 20s my head would have exploded.
found these guys last year in my early 20s, can confirm, head exploded
Lol, 55 too!
I'm only 41 and think they're the coolest 'new' band in the last 15 years.
My Head is Explored indeed i'm 24 and listen to them everyday going to work
I'm 56yo agree with your words,i love this fantastic band❤
I still watch this like once a month since it was uploaded.
I found Drab Majesty through your channel!
Drab Majesty is my favorite modern band.
Mine too.
And mine too!
same
I have never been so fascinated by a band ...
This is like discovering for the first time Cocteau Twins again!
OOOOOOH ! :')
So true, that's exactly what I thought when i first heard them.
@@maskof me too XD
With slowdive
oh my gosh I said the same thing.. that wall of sound 🎸wow amazing..
This is the pure essence of this band in their form. Please watch. You really get a feel for their personalities in this as well as their live performance. They are such a great band and influence for many bands to come. They are one of a kind.
lookin forward to seein them next month live with Slowdive. I'm freakin outta my mind excited as is my daughter.
@ONIGMADOSHI That's right... The 80s are still here 👍🇦🇷
This is so beautiful I feel like I could re-watch it every night before I sleep.
Drab Majesty makes me feel like I'm not in this world and this is amazing
I feel like I just left the universe while listening to this. I feel like I'm dreaming
I had a similar feeling when I saw you ;)
Correct!
@@terminalbeach4973 this man has wisdom
Drab Majesty opened for Clan of Xymox and were absolutely incredible. They put a lot of thought and work into their aesthetic and live performances.
Yeah, definitely. They are the first band we've had in for a session that brought set decorations, extra lights, gels, and more. They care a lot and are very specific about their presentation. Cool band.
Amoeba I really admire and appreciate that. I'd love their live set even more if they had a drummer too.
@@Glass_Caskets It would take a certain kind of drummer and also to reproduce these specific sonorities would require a lot of processing in a live situation. It would definitely take a 4AD, post new wave, proto industrial aesthetic. Above all would have to be very nuanced to fit this awesome sound.
@@frankalfar
you're right. very right. sign me up.
@@Glass_Caskets Don't, drummers are for bands. This is a more intimate project. Stick to drum machines forever!
ive listened to this probably a million times...
Mark K. Likewise mate, I can’t get cold souls out of my head lol
Same....
Ditto!
Its a fucking brilliant song
This is as close to living back in the 80s as you can get. They take you there with their sound
Pretty sure Drab Majesty have been lost in the Upside Down only to find they're way back into our world 33 years later. So glad they made it!
I made sweet love to this comment
This is the absolute best description of this band.
Pretty sure Deb Demure could be Will
lol
The upside down Cocteau Twins
"Can I get more statue in the monitors?"
Hahahaha so good!
LOL!!! and less candle on the low end...
Yes, More statue close ups, and more Cowbell!
"yes, absolutely, right away, sir"
Omfg dying over here, this is the best!
I've always been a sucker for that layered shimiring guitar sound.
Was lucky enough to see them headline the Dais anniversary and it was just amazing. Love this band.
What they're doing to my head is simply inhuman.
Sad lovers and giants, Cocteau Twins, The Chamaleons, Asylum Party, Clan of Xymox, Killing Joke, Tears for Fears. High references here but they have found their personal sound. Love so much 🖤
They definitely got this Sound from Asylum Party....
@@philiparcher2868 agreed
Some nuance of Gary Numan also present here.
Sad lovers ⚡️⚡️⚡️
Love them so much, i cry iridescent tears of celestial joy 💜
Princess P is love to taste those....not in a creepy way...ha
Beer, bud and Drab...aaahhh I can breathe.
The Newest Wave
The Past is the Present and the Present is the Future.
Yes good description....
Is it future or is it past?
I'm past all this
true
Cold Souls makes me feel some what nostalgic of a moment I never had ..weird. Love it
Good music makes me feel this a lot too!
Same over here ✊
This genre teleport me to the 80's ....swimming in such mellow dark gothic waves makes me feel levitated, cheers to Drab Majesty !!! :D :)
Stunning ! When cold souls kicks in after the build up @ 7:42..... absolutely fantastic 😊👌
I'm dressing like this for my next job interview.
Wow! There is hope for music.
Always there's good stuff, I'm sick of people saying x0's was the best decade or whatever. You keep digging you find gold now and again, that's just how it is.
@@syrus3k exactly! If it weren’t for pandora and the occasional recommendations from RUclips, I don’t think I would have tripled my library the way that I did for the last 10 years. There’s unknown gems from all decades.
@@syrus3k Absolutely!
Drab Majesty checks every box when it comes to music, aesthetic and live performance -- without being pretentious. They're a marvellous love letter to all the 80s songs I adore. What an incredible band. They deserve all of the successes that come their way. 🤍
I'm in love with Deb
This version of Unknown to the I is so badass
Completely atmospheric, I can listen this track 100 times and never stop it
Unique🔥✨
Saw these guys open for AFI in Nov 2022. I feel bad for a lot of unknown opening bands, but these guys were easily the best opening band I have seen. The crowd received them quite well too. Been regularly listening to them in my music rotation since that night.
I may have been at that show if you're talking about Chicago. The Riviera? Sometime around Nov 16 22. I thought it was cool of AFI to host them but I was only there to see DM. We left to get ramen after their set
@elysianfields84 - Same tour but Salt Lake City. Saw DM again last year (2023) when they opened for Slow Dive. Same thing as you, went for DM and left during Slow Dive.
Very legit. You've got a guitar savant with the dopest tone, excellent mystical vibe, and a spinning bust of Apollo. Great scene.
the admiration for this group is infinite! 🎭🌌
I had the privilege of watching Drab Majesty open up for The Black Queen back in 2016. Bought the album “Careless” at the show after listening to their bandcamp page for over a month waiting for the show. Lol. Blew the entire audience away. Kinda felt like a double headliner show, tbh. It was TBQ’s first show and their album release. Insane sound and ethereal feeling. Drab slayed it.
what a phenomenal mystic atmosphere!
I can't explain how much I LOVE this.!!
The statue reminds of an old new Order record ... this music is so fascinating and reminds me of old Times of the Chameleons "strange Times" ... this band is so extraordinary to be in 2017 ....wow !
New Order's "Technique" album.
indeed Chameleons UK were/are awesome band I confirm
Yes, that‘s absolutely true. They sound very much like the Chameleons on their Strange Times album from 1986.
@@dissident4117 similar vibe, but wayyy more fuckin ethereal
I know at this point they don't want any more members, but I can sooo imagine an 80's era Simon Gallup or Peter Hook playing bass beside them.
This is one of the best bands of this era.
Damn, this gives me goosebumps. This music is absolutely amazing.
awesome they remember me of deadsy those guys were my favorite band, now this , I love it, amoeba turned me on to youth code, and these guys! I grew up in the 80s so that is why I love this sound.
Christopher Martinez id love to see Deadsy make a comeback. I was lucky enough to see them twice
But better than Deadsy!
Skeletal33 sorry been awhile, but yes, I was infatuated with them when I was younger in my early twenties , bought every single first demo, and the old red chain shirt before they decided to make it blue. Finally got the blessing to see them open up for the deftones wrist tour in 2006 when they dropped phantasmagor, I got cool with the Texas legion manager and he gave me and my girlfriend at the time VIP passes all access , and it was a dream come true, I would dream about hanging out with deadsy before, and it finally happened, those guys where nothing but the most sweetest people a person could meet, Elijah was so cool to me! We had a small conversation about our cats! Alec pure asked if I had vicodin , which I did lol , cuz I was mentioning the problem with heroin , since Elijah was on a treatment, but was absolutely cool with me giving Alec a vike , his shoulder was sore from the past few shows he said, so it was legit, I had a ingrown toenail removed the day before, and we even talked about that! Such a down to earth band , I miss the f#$%K out of them.
Christopher Martinez Yeah man they remind of Deadsy alot and that's not a bad thing at all!
A band I‘ve been waiting for since 35 years. Awesome.
Love how ethereal it sounds. These guys should be in Siouxsie and the Banshees. 😁
This is the best thing i've heard in a long, long time. Keyword-HEAR. So sweet. And the imagery is beautiful as well. Drab Majesty-yes!!
This is my favorite episode of Star Trek TOS.
Mine too, i love when drab majesty tells the captain that the boy is special and must be encouraged.
Fav band as of yet for 2017
I really dig this band, very original and just plain cool
Not really original, but cool for sure.
This is very 4AD ish, love it.
What is 4aD?
@@gustavoleguizamon6270 ummm the label which was home to such bands as the cocteau twins, dead can dance, pixies, throwing muses red house painters, swallow, this mortal coil, modern english, Lush, etc etc etc. was the gold standard for dreamy artsy music in the 80s.
@@fadedSF thx a lot for the answer! 💜
Tamaryn is great too
@@gustavoleguizamon6270 Check out the Lonely Is An Eyesore compilation of 4AD bands, which includes several of the amazing bands on that label. Sounds like they put that recording under their pillow, as they should.
I got to see them live last night and it was such an incredible experience. I'd love to see them again!
That guitar tone :O
Robin Guthrie
@@TheBlzbug242 ALL DAY LONG! Glad someone else heard the obvious yet never mentioned Cocteau Twins influence....
@@darrenayles5905 we are aware that Cocteau Twins already done all this even better. They are the masters. But this band is awesome too.
@@lovecraftmusic8717 Drab Majesty significantly better than CT
@@andreyandreyovich5454 You can't compare them because CT ended up making very different music later into their carreer, and did it amazingly
The world belongs to the silent ones
No. The world belongs to the violent, careerist ones has power.
this just totally blew me away
Thought you were only just a shadow
But you were all light
favorite band. incredible
Im drooling over that ethereal sound
"Drab Majesty" absolut Incredible !!! Amazing Stuff !!
Incredible band! I'm a new fan! Thanks for posting!
Li ho scoperti solo tre giorni fa, fantastici.
Saw Drab Majesty live at the Echoplex a couple months ago, and I think Mona D adds a lot to the act. I hope he's on hand for future live performances.
crashmancer he's a full time member
Skeletal33 Glad to hear it! "Deb" toured solo for quite a while and said in an interview that it would probably stay that way, so I thought maybe Mona's participation was just for LA shows where they both live.
So early, Deb didn't have a right-side up lefty guitar yet. Our celestial visitors have come a long way since.
I watch this over and over
Amazing how two people can create such an incredible sound!
Hypnotic
What an incredible performance.
Discovered completely by chance. Drab Majrsty are AWESOME.
They were doung a "Whats in my Bag" epusode and i believe it was Deafhaven that siggested it. Brilliant buy. No one mentions the Sisters of Mercy vibe with the drummer machine.
And I keep coming back, fantastic performance.
Start to finish, this is perfect.
Oh lord this is amazing
This is pure magic!
Hello from Toronto - come by!
hallow its just so powerful, so intense like... i dont have words to describe the feeling
The last couple days I’ve been listening to DM and I’m blown away. Seriously. I love the sound and I love the voice! I’ve been waiting so long for a music with a vision like these two 🖤
best version of hallow. that guitar addition in the verse along with the building synth is so good.
Absolutely AMAZING 🖤
elkiecat it is 🖤🖤🖤
I’m definitely going to see these guys if they tour in the UK, this took me way back to my goth days on London 😊👍
Amazing sound, amazing band
actually incredible performance!! I thought it wasn't live until I checked out the video lol, and I like it better than studio version
Same here...I don't think I have ever done that....that's how clean their music sounds live.
Visually they do great work in these backdrops. That Museum of Science and Medicine show in Chicago was great too.
Cocteau Twins nephews , genius band !
God I love them
So minimalistic yet so dense.
I love these guys SO much 🖤🖤🖤🖤
They're always my favorite to watch, absolutely mesmerizing af
I absolutely love their sound. ❤️
Одна из лучших моих любимых групп. Спасибо ДРАБ!
Amazing!! ...es un respiro en esta época q retrotrae a los '80...I'M IN LOVE AGAIN!
Es un respiro y un breve escape a la rutina.
Absolutely the voice and synth makes me return to 80s
Tal cual! Hasta revive cosas de la primer hora de Gary Numan... Genial.
Happy to see 3 of my favorites songs of them in this apresentation!
What a stunning performance!
These guys are so GREAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
beautiful as always
Gracias Drab Majesty!!
Mona D is like Trent 2.0. *SWOON*
Three back to back to back bright comets.
Awesome - saw them in Montreal recently and it was just brilliant - old/new huge ambient and gorgeous
I miss this style they looked so cool
Spotify understands me. Love this band.
🥰🥰 génial ! J'adore ! 😍😍😍😍💋💋
Cure-ish. I accidentally found this band recently. Luv the vibe.
A true work of art visually and sonically
reminds me a bit of the Chameleons from the 1980's
My Boss shared me this link as he finds the first song as gorgeous, and he is absolutely correct.... I finished the whole video, and I found them awesome.... Love it..
Imposible dejar de escucharlo! Eterna adicción!
Beautiful!
Glorious it is.
Awesome. Wow
