This is amazing and absolutely true.
I'm so glad I discovered this band, they are seriously good 🖤
Its rare that the live version of songs sounds so much different and better at the same time, despite the original already being a great song. Especially Gaslight is insanely good.

Love that one..and all of them
absolutelly an amazing live performance! so proud of being a fan of these girls
Wow their live performance is absolutely spot on.
I’m so excited to see them live tomorrow and supporting them. I am so glad I randomly find them!!!
Gen X here. I love hearing the 90's alt sound and how new generations are interpreting it and making it even more sonically impactful. Softcult is def one of the most talented bands in this genre and the vox harmonies are other-worldly!

Same on all points
I grew up in the 90's and I'm a huge fan of them.
It is the essence of the 90s transported to these times... Amazing!!!
Great performance! Also, phenomenal mix, CBC. Great job!
3…2….1….commence launch. Had a great feeling from this band the first time I heard them. Canada needs a talented group like this who does it all. This band actually ticks off all the boxes that define the word “artist”. Today we’re bombarded with label hyped performers who just don’t cut it artistically. Get ready Canada and the rest of the world. Let’s hope they’re recognized and supported by the right people. Kick a$$ and make us proud. Much love from your neighbors in Guelph, Room 12 👍🏻🍻🤟🏻❤️
Phoenix harmonies are so beautiful
It's so amazing to see such a great group doing what u want to do, u inspire me in my musick,thanx
I Love Your Band.... Marc from Germany...Can Not Wait To See You in Munich.....🙏🙏🙏🙏
Bought my tix for the LA show as soon as the tour was announced. They’re def goin places & relatable in so many ways
Great interview and performance. Looking forward to the June 10 show in San Francisco.
❤ their music and their vibe. Please play their songs more! 🙂
Luv U from Thailand 🖤

Wow somebody other than Jay actually said that.
They're playing a gig in my country on May 9th. I'll be there for sure.
what a band!
Me thinks The Cloud's Penny Century has to be a touchstone as far as the vocal harmonies go. But this duo is one to watch. Some great songs.
Here because of Softcult's epic set at Art Hop. KWFamous, w00t!

@@parttimecomix Thanks for the quick reply. I only discovered them a couple days ago on KZread. I regret not hearing them sooner and having missed multiple chances this year to see them. I hope they will return to the Midwest in 2024 because they are the best new band I have heard in a very long time.
Softcult my type of girls stay True North Strong .
Dudes like your music, too. 🤘

That Fender Jaguar is sexy af!
Are they a grunge band??
Cults enforce rigid conformity and it is actually those who are endorsing a new view of gender that are instituting a cult on college campuses, in the workplace, in entertainment and other pillars of culture. We always made allowances for so-called tomboys, or sensitive males, although there was always a level of toxicity which should have been pushed back against. But that does not mean that the walls of gender must be totally brought down and new walls constructed.
the title craked me up 😂 please girls realize being a woman is no joke and no costume, I say this because I read they are from Canada and heard them talk. I am in Spain and those women like me who have been serious feminist activists for years have been going through a hell that people can not even imagine trying to avoid ending up like Canada in relation to women's rights.
Kurt Cobain would be proud hahaha
Why the hell are they tagged as Grunge here?

As a fan of Neil Young's Grunge Stuff, yes they are Grungy as Hell and I mean they Do it Well!! Shoegaze is a special reverb-laden, species of grunge that they nail!!
I swear I try to find grunge traces in their songs, but I can't... it's a wonderful shoegaze/dreampop duo, but not grunge
Awesome
