These guys are great. There's so much more going on than you realize at first blush.
The full-on analog, non-programmed, real-life performances of their music is really cool, and fun to watch.

I like these guys, and obviously know some of their songs from the radio.
I think I’ve heard the first one of this batch, but not sure of the other two. I dig em And they should get some airplay.
They are really tight live!

Yes, I was happy to see that the quality of the Austin City Limits live performance was great, because visually it's an awesome spectacle to see. That one synthesizer looked like, well

In 2018, Parquet Courts released Wide Awake!, giving us more straight-ahead garage rock tunes. Aside from the title track, there's Mardi Gras Beads, Freebird II, and this great two-parter
Parquet Courts – Almost Had to Start a Fight/In and Out of Patience
They have some new stuff coming out now, for a release later this year.

Sherbert is NOT and NEVER WILL BE ice cream.
No, I liked the song. I figured a comment saying "I liked the song" would be redundant so I just hit the like button. Thanx for costing me all these letters of typing.

In 2018, a talented young British singer-songwriter named Jade Bird started getting airplay on American AC radio. At the time, it was just one song, a powerhouse ballad. I became interested, and looked further into her career. As it turns out, at an even younger age, she was recording cover songs that were available on YouTube, such as Johnny Cash's I've Been Everywhere, and this Pixies tune
Jade Bird – Where Is My Mind (Pixies cover) (live acoustic)
The following year she released an EP named Something American, which had mostly folky, country ballads. The song Cathedral got airplay in some markets. Then, in a move that parallels Alanis Morissette, she releases a song with a punch, and evocative lyrics, and it puts her on the map
Jade Bird – Lottery (live)
While she still had no album out, more songs were making their way to the radio. And as she starts touring, we get to hear her talent for performing live, as in this foot-stompin' tune
Jade Bird – Uh Huh (live)
In 2019, her eponymous album was released, with all the singles on it, including this one
Jade Bird – I Get No Joy (live)
I haven't heard anything else from her since then, although I see she's got an album coming out now.

What if it was Rock Lobster or Horse With No Name?I dig it.
I probably wouldn't have changes the station to listen to it if I hadn't read your review.
Unless the Smiths were on. Then I would have changed to the whatever station I could click on first.

For many, especially among reviewers, Greta Van Fleet was a joke. Pitchfork called them stiff, hackneyed, overly precious retro-fetishism. Yet due to the style of the music - a shameless throwback to Led Zeppelin - they rose to the top of the popular rock band heap. They were nominated for 4 Grammys, and won 1. And their name got mentioned as often as the Black Keys, with the perception they were the only rock bands left.
Personally, while I don't take them seriously, I do remember liking the first song I heard from them in 2017. Here it is, complete with the poorly-lip-synced video
Greta Van Fleet – Highway Tune
But it was a year later that they came out with a song, which I felt was more their own. And performed live, they actually show talent, even the elfin little singer.
