They're one of the best bands of the past 15 years. Musically I don't think there's anyone like them. When it comes to production and guitar tones, they're in a league of their own. Just a super unique band, and they put on an awesome live show too.

UMO is good af and I love Rubans overall guitar playing style and influences he brings into the music, it’s a great example to show that there are really talented people out there even if they start out not having much money at all or anyone to sponsor them

Fun fact: the drums on Bicycle were sampled from Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band (Reprise) and some of the songs were from samples as well Also there was a funny story of his brother Kody making him listen to Ffunny Ffrends and Ruban revealing that it was him lol eventually Kody played the drums on II and onwards. check his music out as well! Opossum and Silicon plus he has a few albums too under his name.

I really love the classical influences UMO as someone who grew up in ballet (ie being forced to listen to classical constantly)

My favorite band ! ❤

When you get older it becomes harder and harder to find music that sounds truly unique to you but they are special

Glad to have found this video you summed up things nicely. Keep it up man. Also my favorite album would probably be Sex and food but all of them are great.

Thanks for watching mate!! I also like Sex & Food quite a lot

seeing them in april for the first time. unbelievably excited

UMO continues to be one of my favorite bands, bringing something unique but true to his form with each successive album. I appreciate each album, front to back, which is not something I can say about the other artists I follow.

amaznig video, I would love for you to take on the rest of their albums, theyre all just so different from one another

Hey mate! Thanks for watching and subscribing!! 😁

This is a great vid! I didn't know the context of the building on the cover, that was really interesting to learn. My favourite UMO album is Multi-Love. Obviously the backstory is really interesting, but I love its unique mixing, it's so warm and close, almost a bit claustrophobic. The album takes a lot of turns genre-wise, but it never feels jarring, and I just love every song!

Easily one of my favorite groups, loved this breakdown of his style, would love to see more, keep it up

Thank you my bro

I worked two months with an broken phone with only one album in it: Unknown Mortal Orchestra first album, listened to it a million times in that period. Great band and great guy, he always responded to my DM's in instagram.

If you like listening to UMO you might like a band called The Doublejumps

Would just say that you are incorrect about the drums - they are actually sampled (most of them anyway) you can look it up through google. I too thought he recorded them!

❤️😍

II is great, I cannot deny, but over Multi Love?! Idk about that my friend lol
