Ehhhhhhhhh not really digging their stuff after just listening to a few random songs.

 

[Doctor_Thomas]

Awesome. Few of my favorite albums. Why do people in gamergate hate them?

"A woman in a band? Fucking disgusting. Music is only for men and women are ruining the music industry."

That's why.

Because Lauren is outspoken against the things they stand for and the way they treat women. She handles it like a champ though, it's great.

isn't that obvious?

Amazing choice though, been to a concert a few days ago and if they go with the same stage setup GA visitors are in for a real treat. My absolutely favorite band atm.

The lead singer of Chvrches dared to stand up all the misogynistic messages she received back in 2013. She's been enemy #1 since.

But ya know, ethics in journalism tho

 

[Courage]

Chvrches suck, should have had Grimes.

 

[RoKKeR]

If you haven't heard of Chvrches...

[K.Sabot]

I'm not too into their work, but it's a great grab for TGA.

Though I wish TGA didn't have musical guests to be honest... unless they were playing game music ala that year they did the Red Dead Redemption music.

 

[Massive Duck. C.M.]

Because they try to troll the lead singer and she rips them apart

How did she get targeted?

I know nothing of this band

ED: never mind, I see many answers

 

[SplitYourInfinities]

Yep.

I had no idea about any of this.

I really want to and should like this, but I just can't get into them at all. I don't think they're bad, but I just can't get into them at all.

 

[LouisaFerre]

Also, are people talking about gamergate or /mu/, because all of the "I want to marry Lauren Mayberry" shitposting seems to happen in the latter.

did you not see last year's with Imagine Dragons and Koji Kondo? It was fantastic.

 

[RedAssedApe]

I feel old. I don't know who these people are.

What about Donna Burke?!

can she be one of the jury? apparently we are missing more women in the jury panel.

I hope this doesn't preclude Donna Burke

 

[Hasphat'sAnts]

Every Open Eye is an awesome record.

Hoping they play Clearest Blue and Leave a Trace.

 

[PfantzyPantz]

Awesome! Love me some Chvrches

 

[Ikuu]

Seems like a perfect choice for an event like this.

 

[NeatoKuni]

Awesome! Chvrches doesn't get nearly as much attention as they deserve. Every Open Eye was kinda disappointing, but it's still a great album.

edit: surprised people are bringing up grimes. it was my first thought as well, but I didn't think she was popular enough to be worth mentioning lol.

 

[Sheriff_Battlesnake]

chVrches has come to

 

[Acquiescence]

Never derived much pleasure from listening to these guys. Kinda irritating. One of them was in Aereogramme though, which was an alright band, but inevitably had to breakup in the end because they were getting absolutely nowhere commercially.

 

[Mushroomer25]

Very cool. The Imagine Dragons thing was a pleasant surprise last year, looking foward to what Chvrches & Deadmau5 have on deck to top it.

Wonder when we'll start getting the teases about game announcements...

 

[Majine]

I like Deadmau5, but I feel he isn't suited to very tight time slots like these events. His music is very slow to build up. It's kinda impressive that he's become so huge in the EDM sphere where everything else is so fast and "all about the drops".

So, in the end, the entire industry went form "Let's make something fun, something entertaining, something innovative" to "Let's expend money on banal crap, we can recover by releasing remasters, charge for fake in-game money and costume dlc!"

People are talking about the "I want to rape Lauren Mayberry" shitposting. Which came from, surprise, our favorite expert group in game jurnalism (sic)

 

[Familienoberhauptvogel]

That title confused me. Sounds like some religious band.

Chvrches ain't even a remaster, it's a straight port of 80s synthpop.

trying to guess which thread this was supposed to be in. so many possibilities

 

[AHA-Lambda]

AWESOME!!

 

[K.Sabot]

and now the thread is done, distracted by a single shitpost rip

 

[Meier]

Very excited -- been one of my favorite active artists since first hearing them in late 2012.

Took a slow-mo of them playing Under the Tide 11 days ago and it kinda sounded totally wild, haha. https://www.instagram.com/p/9xiXuVKoKl/?taken-by=abellwillring. Martin is such a nutty dancer.

 

[MrHoot]

So how do you pronounce it ?

Churches.

It's like Churches.

ahaha, when i first listened to them I would say it like that until a friend pointed it out and made me feel like an idiot.

 

[Prompto]

Awesome news. Big step up from Imagine Dragons, at least to me.

 

[K.Sabot]

I called them Chaverches at first until I realized I was an idiot.

True that my man, some day people will talk about Chvrches like they do about the ET Atari game.

So how do you pronounce it ?

...shvrshz ?

Like Jvdas Priest but awful.

 

[charpunk]

This news really helped turn around this terrible day.

They are such an amazing band to see live.

 

[Hoo-doo]

They are no Purity Ring, but i'll take it.

 

[Warxard]

Tame Impala wold've been better

 

[antitrop]

I like Churches, they could have done so much worse.
