Stumbled upon this band while watching an episode of "The Agency," where a snippet of "Weak in Your Light" was used, and I immediately had to stop the stream and find the artists. It brought me (and my wife) right back to the melancholic synth of 80s bands such as Depeche Mode. I'm glad to experience this timeless music anew.
Heard this from my dad playing it while he was sitting out on our patio reading and it stuck in my head for the rest of the day… searched for 30 minutes and finally found it! This is a banger btw
I grew up in the 80s, still learning more about the familiarity and nuances of that music at 40... you guys are equal parts transporting me back and yet keeping me firmly in place with your fresh modernity. You are a rare unicorn of a band ❤
The 80s are not a time to reminisce about, synthesizers took over and we haven't heard real music since. I'm a similar age to you, but pine over the 1930's music and era in general
Great comment and definitely on point. I'm 50yrs old and this is the best music I've heard in the last 20yrs. Generational band... very few come along in a lifetime....
@@The_SherSher What , Barbershop Quartet not your thing ?! While Hud is thoroughly enjoying early Lawrence Welk episodes… We can bask in this perfect summertime soundtrack. I’m with you, this is hella good and I can’t stop listening to these new cuts. Not a single snoozer !
I heard this song first about a week ago and can’t stop listening to it. It is such a good input of stimulation and hooks me immediately. Safe to say I’m obsessed
I heard it at one of their gigs a few months ago and had exactly the same reaction. Instantly it stood out and I've probably listened to it ever day since. Phenomenal song
Come on in and sit beside me, where the waters collide Bathin' me in the iris of your widening eyes What can you share to keep my hands cuffed? Somethin' so bright and blessed that I'm all but crushed Just a reminder I'm in love Weak in your light And I can't seem to wash it off That's alright Fumblin' friend and foe, we're in rotten light Starin' down the simple somethin' that'll shape my whole life Breathin' and burnin' me, leaguered and overthrown I can feel myself come undone, yet there's more Just a reminder I'm in love Weak in your light And I can't seem to wash it off That's alright Just a reminder I'm in love Weak in your light And I can't seem to wash it off And that's alright It's alright, I'm love Weak in your light And I can't seem to wash it off And I can't seem to wash it off And that's alright And that's alright And that's alright And that's alright
I was a kid during the 80’s, It makes me feel good that new generation of musicians are creating new styles of music pretty similar to the one made in the 80’s… , love it 🫶
Saw them on 3/8/20 right before covid halted concerts and the such…i remember loving their set and the band being very nice people. Excellent song, hope to see you guys again someday
I hear more good stuff every time I play this. This band has come a long way in a short time. Their music touches something deep inside me I can't identify but nonetheless resonates.
One of my favorite songs of all time. I’ve probably listened to it 369 times in the last few months since it’s inception into my brain chemistry. It’s aaaaaalllright
Everyone thinks I'm crazy for having XM radio these days..... I tell them it intrduces me to bands like this... That I would not otherwise know about. Well worth the money.
Why does the Colorado sound make every third song so bad you change stations? I love this song and found it on Sirius xm. I love music 101 but other than that the Colorado sound is just kinda bad.
I have to say it: Well, exactly the same as you, or on the radio, RUclips or spotify. I have followed this group for a few years. I am from Valencia, Spain. I heard them for the first time on the radio. Later I saw them in concert in Madrid. I have your records. Wake up! There is a world beyond the USA!

Just heard this song on the latest episode of The Agency. Absolutely love it
I heard it a few months back but just heard it in agency also and was so happy.
Same here i asked dr google what am i listening 2 hear.. modern day depeche mode
Me too
Same
Just heard this band for the first time on alt radio on xm radio. Thanks madison.
Same, I took a pic of radio to save the name then downloaded it. This was 3 days ago for me 😊
Same...Alt Nation
XMU
Same. Thank you XM! Worth my subscription.
Same story here. Took a pic of the name/song to look it up later.
“Ok, one more time”. -Me
“And maybe one more time after that…..” -me
😂And me..
My people!
It's like Depeche Mode, OMD and Enigma had a baby. Just perfection.
Like if Grizzly Bear binged Ringfinger by NIN before hitting the studio
Definitely a slow Martin Gore song with that OMD flavor
Also Roxy Music. Brian Ferry vibes.
Kept searching “depeche mode the agency ep 5” to no avail 🤦♂️
I'm here bc The Agency sent me
That makes two of us 😂
I'm the 3rd. This song is 👍😎😎🔥🔥
I'm the 4th😊
That scene is damn hot that they use the song in
Im too

I love it. I'm 40, and my taste in music and my fashion has never gotten past the 80s and 90s.
Me too.
New Wave is my favorite Genre/ this sure sounds like it;)
to be honest, you did nothing wrong :D
So you're still cool
@@desmondhardiman-x2w I say I'm still cool. Grunge kid forever.
A perfect mixture of Depeche Mode and Grizzly Bear.....awesome song!
The synth is pure Kraftwerk
I hear a little Ultravox
The Agency, episode 5 brought me here! 😎
For me the same.. Shazam is the best
Me also ❤
The Agency brought me here. ❤
The Agency brought lots of folks here, Lol.... including me😊
Brought all of us here
It’s rare to find a song that you play over and over and don’t let the playlist progress beyond. Repeat only.
Agreed
This is the most awesome music that I dreamed about in my basement in 1988
Gets better with each listen
Oh my. That old time sound never gets old. Thank you. (The Agency sent me, by the way.)
"Bathin' me in the iris of your widening eyes" these words melt my soul every single time I hear them.

my first time hearing this band. this is EXCELLENT music.
Heard this for the 1st time today. Reminds me of Depeche mode. Fkng awesome!
That was my first thought too upon my first listen!
His voice is amazing ❤
I can't get enough of this song. It's hypnotic melody and expertly crafted lyrics echo through my head all day long. Thank you for this absolute gem.
This song is like butter to my ears! Love the mellow aura it gives!❤
Perfect sound guys. Wow. The Agency brought me here
I heard this song on radio doble nueve , Peru
Igualmente por la radio rock en lima!!!
I’m here after I grabbed my phone to Shazam this during episode 5 of The Agency.
i do the same :)
I have been obsessed with this song since the second it was released.
Obsessions and addictions are bad in life as a human… except when they are in the form is music!
Come on in and sit beside me, where the waters collide
Bathin' me in the iris of your widening eyes
What can you share to keep my hands cuffed?
Somethin' so bright and blessed that I'm all but crushed
Just a reminder I'm in love
Weak in your light
And I can't seem to wash it off
That's alright
Fumblin' friend and foe, we're in rotten light
Starin' down the simple somethin' that'll shape my whole life
Breathin' and burnin' me, leaguered and overthrown
I can feel myself come undone, yet there's more
Just a reminder I'm in love
Weak in your light
And I can't seem to wash it off
That's alright
Just a reminder I'm in love
Weak in your light
And I can't seem to wash it off
And that's alright
It's alright, I'm love
Weak in your light
And I can't seem to wash it off
And I can't seem to wash it off
And that's alright
And that's alright
And that's alright
And that's alright
I need to see this live
Awesome lyrics!
I think it's "Be-leaguered" and overthrown
The song hits like an comet! Oh boy, can’t wait for the new LP! 🖤
I’m 33 years old and experiencing love for the first time… I met him the day I first heard this song. I’m so grateful ♥️⛓️💥
Woke up this morning with this song living rent free in my head
Omg, why I am here 🤣
You mean you woke up to a bad ass soundtrack royalty free?😂🎉
A band that keeps on growing and growing. This song is fully to my taste, well done guys
I was a kid during the 80’s, It makes me feel good that new generation of musicians are creating new styles of music pretty similar to the one made in the 80’s… , love it 🫶
What an album opener
Wow!! It's like Roy Orbison and Depeche Mode had a baby, so they slowed it down! Love it!!
The vibe of this song it’s incredible, I hope someday you come to Mexico!
First synth has that Alesis Quadraverb delay on it. Definitely giving me Aphex Twin “ Tha “ vibes. Love it!
It’s almost the exact same synth melody as the OG synthpop song Autobahn by Kraftwerk from 1974.
Saw them on 3/8/20 right before covid halted concerts and the such…i remember loving their set and the band being very nice people. Excellent song, hope to see you guys again someday
The Agency sent me here......Sublime track. Where would we be without a great synth line and a fantastic voice......
I hear more good stuff every time I play this. This band has come a long way in a short time. Their music touches something deep inside me I can't identify but nonetheless resonates.
Same!

It's a great song, but c'mon...the favorite of all time ?! Greetings
best song of 2023
Everyone thinks I'm crazy for having XM radio these days..... I tell them it intrduces me to bands like this... That I would not otherwise know about. Well worth the money.
This is so delicious and loving it in 2024
I don’t know what just happened but this made me cry. A confusing cry of happiness, nostalgia and sadness.
OMG! Love the OMD synth.🙂
I was just introduced to this group for the first time, and I am impressed! They remind me of Q Lazzarus
Ooooof, goosebumps ! This is amazingly awesome. I’m in love with a song ❤❤❤❤
Onírico , me suena a Depeche Mode por un lado, a Talk Talk por otro, incluso podría decir A-HA.... genial. Gran descubrimiento!!!
Sehr schön. Bitte mehr davon.
Heard this song and band for the first time on 105.5 The Colorado Sound. Thought it was Kraftwerk at first. Thanks Margot
Why does the Colorado sound make every third song so bad you change stations? I love this song and found it on Sirius xm. I love music 101 but other than that the Colorado sound is just kinda bad.
@@davidrichardson9174 they gotta play some bad stuff to keep the normies listening too. Normies got that $$$
...from first few notes... perfect !
Excellent!, found ya on The Agency Episode 5 Season 1
Thank you for amazing performance in Poland ❤️✨️

Superb track! Looking forward to seeing you in June. Quickly becoming my favourite band of all time.
❤ Great band
Thank you Indie Pop Rocks on SOMA FM
Best new band. Absolutely flawless.
This is so cool , it’s almost like a mix of Depeche Mode and the Morrisey !
I love this band!!! Makes me feel complete
Heard this on the XM radio today. This is haunting and beautiful. You guys nailed it
Cool Music!
From La Oroya, Perú 👽🇵🇪
I have to ask: how did you hear this song in Peru?

That walking bass and slow build is literally all you need, who needs a big beat drop, this is perfection, even better after some 420 action 😎💨
I found this on the radio
Amazing
Magnético 🧲
Lovely stuff!
PURE LOVE!!! 🧡💙💛💜💚🦋🦋🦋
This song is my language

*Hello The Agency* 😊
A thumbs up isn't enough for this song. I require an "intensely burning love" button, please.
I was literally thinking I want to be able to choose more than just a Like on this. ❤
Love love
