are FIDLAR the best new rock band?

wolf alice probably don't fit that description, but i love their songs. they are vibrant and ambitious and smart anyway. there is an underdog element to their songs too which kinda fits the nerd thing but has more to do with youth angst and sexual identity. but they aren't really rough at all.

and they aren't pop punk. more grunge pop.

but they are young and have pep and their videos are funny! and they sound nothing like the new radiohead album.

i only just heard them in the last week, yeah they are good! i had vaguely heard of them but probably never woulda checked them out 'cause their name sounds dumm.

i hadn't thought about this band in years, and then tonight i went to a show and saw a guy in a FIDLAR shirt and i thought, "huh ... right ... that FIDLAR band" (who i liked). and then i came home and this thread was revived. weird.

I hadn't thought about this band in years, and then last night I saw someone tweeting "Is there a band out there that fell off harder than FIDLAR? Second album was crap and it was a downward spiral from there." I loved their first album but I haven't heard a note since, so I don't know. Then I saw this thread revived.
