All new pop-punk bands should sound like ABANDONED BY BEARS

This might be the nicest lyric video I’ve seen in forever– big ups to whoever animated it!

If you are like me, you wrote off all Swedish music as either weak, ghey melodeath or weak, ghey indiepop. And you would have been right to do so, at least until now. Meet Gothenberg, Sweden’s ABANDONED BY BEARS, who as far as I’m concerned are the template for what new pop-punk/easycore bands should sound like. Along with bands like LAKEVIEW, they are the leaders of the new school of pop-punk that serves as the counterpoint to the troowave/vhscore trend sweeping through the scene– and I for one welcome our new POPPY CRABCORE overlords with open arms!

No idea what these guys are up to as far as future releases, touring or whatever but I am definitely stoked to hear more. Stay tuned!

Hit them up on Facebook and tell them SYWH sent you!!

perswade you

    i basically consider these guys to be at the forefront of what im now calling “easycore 2.0″

    basically the same old easycore but with heavier breakdowns, more “hardcore” vox, lots of catchy keyboard/synth, and most importantly.. DAT CRABCORE PRODUCTION

    UGH such a good track

  2. Dave says:

    Mmmmm dat outro breakdown

    ohh catchy poppy crabcore/ easycore 2.0!!

    wood bro down with these swedes just for the chance to hook up with one of the band member’s kewt/hotasfuk blonde hermana…

    dat outro bleh breakdown is yummy as fuck…

  4. I Can't Remember My Handle says:

    It’s ADTR with minimal Nintendo-core thrown in (dat Super Mario coin @ 1:14) which isn’t a bad thing. I just think easycore needs to add another dimension if it wants to survive (more breakdowns?! more slamming riffs?! who knows!?).

  5. Sebastian delin says:

    I effing agree. I happen to know the gentledudes and they are all super nice to hang with. And the music. Damn!!! Big ups!!!

    If this is the future of easycore then I’m on board. This is like what I expected Lakeview to sound like before i listened to them (though lakeview are this shit too and got signed!). This band is tight as shit tho I’m already excited to hear more from them.
