the hold blue rev still has on me even almost a year later is impressive. such an incredible album

We are witnessing a band at it’s peak. I marvel with awe on what this band has become, all of them are performing in perfect sync

Belinda Says is an instant all-time classic.

Molly's voice is impeccable.

ALBUM OF THE YEAR. Tom Verlaine is so moving

tom verlaine giving one goosebumps when least expected

This new album is surreal! What a band!!

Are you kidding me i just got done listening to their kexp set from 4 yrs ago thinking about how much im falling in love with this band and this video came up next, AND it posted just 45 mins ago!! Freakin awesome. I feel so lucky 😊

Blue Rev is an achievement. They’re very good live too. Absolutely love it

Love that shoegazey glide guitar sound- as a longtime fan of theirs it joys me to see an indie band of their stature giving that style a fresh update

Named my dog Archie because of this band ❤️🥺

After I finished watching this, I thought to myself, "wow, they play all the great songs in the album." But then I realized they missed 4 of my favorites. That's what 10/10 album do to you all.

Stopping in to mention the job the audio crew did on this. Outstanding

Blue Rev is superb! One of the best albums of 2022, if not THE best! 🖤🖤

00:34 Easy On Your Own? 03:37 Many Mirrors 07:08 Tom Verlaine 11:14 Belinda Says

they couldn't possibly sound any better live

I’m a 70 yr young artist & aspiring electric guitarist & I love this band! “Granny Guitar”🎸

Seeing Molly's face at 18 seconds in alone makes this performance worth the wait 🤣

The way it sounds just as full as the studio version is so sick

How she inflects 'sunrise' in Easy On Your Own - I can't stand how beautiful it is.

Noticing just how intricate some of those vocals harmonies are. It adds an extra layer of atmosphere and mood onto all of these songs.

One of the best bands in the world right now in my opinion... They haven't released a disappointing album and are incredible live

Bassist and drummer are so good.

Would really love to see Pharmacist, Pomeranian Spinster, and Pressed live! Hopefully, soon. Love from the Philippines, Alvvays! 💚

I don’t normally listen to this style of music but this band are out there in a class all of their own. The quality of the songs is just insane, and listen to the vocal harmonies in this session. They are a very tight unit musically, Sheridan on drums and the new bassist are excellent additions.

00:18 that face you make when you find out it's the first in studio session Marco Collins has hosted in seven years

Blue Rev Album of the year, great melodies.

The previous two Alvvays KEXP sessions were a huge part of my discovery of this band, I replayed them endlessly! So it made me smile to see this in my feed this morning. Blue Rev has been a bit of a grower for me, and I realize now that as much as I enjoy the album versions, it's the live versions that I fall in love with.

This band is superb, they get better with every release.

this must be my 50th time watching this set, such a tight performance by extremely talented artists

Love that you can hear the harmonies in this more clearly than the album

3:06 i love alec's guitarist-joy-face after he pulled off that cool guitar noise

I just found this band. The songwriting is so masterful and her voice is just so beautiful, it's making my eyes water. I'm so happy I found them.

Love the throwback Kevin Shields guitar technique ❤❤❤

I'm smilin' a thousand and one smiles....

What an amazing performance! I hope they'll eventually play Tile By Tile live.

I love the outro to Tom Verlaine, I wish that was actually in the record

Blue Rev is incredible, to hear what happened with the theft and flooding you can tell they came back swinging. I love the introspective memoir-esque side to alvvays and I wish them nothing but joy and love for as long as they're together. Thanks KEXP, for the awesome audio engineering and videography, and thank you Marco Collins, you did great for the 7 year hiatus. :)

As I experienced the toughest and saddest break-up of my career, Easy On Your Own is what all I needed to heal.

funny enough KEXP decides to upload this set the same day I'm watching them live in Chile 00:37 Easy On Your Own? 03:37 Many Mirrors 07:10 Tom Verlaine 11:15 Belinda Says 14:04 Interview

Gobsmacked at how good they and the engineering are here. Incredible sound living up to a brilliant album.

Also the interviewer seems like such a nice man. He had some fun questions and let the band talk as they pleased, he seemed to really enjoy it.

Amazing. My Album Of The Year! Dying for them to play Tile by Tile live

ALVVAYSを生で見たい！Come to Japan！

The key change in Belinda Says is one of my favourite moments in music this year. This and the final chorus of BC,NR's Bread Song are just next level

Kerri MacLellan.... I'm in love with you and your art. I travel from South America just to see you and the band in Boston and it was the happiest moment of this year. How I'd love to meet you one day...

A definite Top 10 Album of the year. Great session !

This band fills me with nostalgia for the time when guitar was still cool and relavant. I hear shoegaze, britpop, grunge and many other good old musics from them. So beautiful.

Tom Verlaine is unreal. Alvvays only gets better with each record. AOTY!

Belinda Says es el mejor tema del disco!! 11:14 Molly Rankin es tan linda!! Ojalá vengan en un Tour a Latinoamérica.

They are, without a doubt, the best band making the best music currently. And that's just it!

One of the best 2022 albums. I love this band ❤

Belinda says is one of the best songs I’ve heard in a while. This entire performance is incredible. Thank you for everything!!!

I love the discussion about replacing the national anthems at hockey games with Heaven is a Place on Earth. That is the most amazing idea I've ever heard and I fully support it!

they’ve been my favorite band since middle school and this album has been my favorite i’ve heard from anyone in a long time.

AOTY. Alvvays has always been criminally underrated. This last album has been spectacular. They just keep getting better and better.

best band - best studio mix

the phrase 'crawling in monochromatic hallways' has been stuck in my head for weeks. I can't get enough of this album or this band!

I'm having a moment here. Marco Collins broke Nirvana and Pearl Jam and I vividly remember staying up late at night to listen to his show from across the water in BC. This dude is a legend. Alvvays are doing Canadian surf rock and Marco is playing it and things are gonna be OK.

It's the best thing I've heard in years.. I'm in love vvith this band.

No one loves Alvvays more than Sheridan. 🥁

It’s been a long time I didn’t get so excited with a new band as I got with Alvvays. Their sound is so rich, unique, well composed, amazingly arranged & performed, it was love at first listen. And seeing them live in this performance is only a confirmation of how great this band is.

so happy they played Tom Verlaine. Best track on the album!!!!

Im completely in love with this album, it has so many landscapes, layers and emotions, Its hypnotic. Everyone's performance is solid AF, but I specially highlight Mollys writing and vocals, Alec's guitar and Sheridan / Kelly´s choirs. Molly sounds like a mourning angel, Its such a beautiful sound!!, and combined with those heartfelt and wisely written lyrics, she directly touches my soul. Alec's masterful control of noise, effects, melody and distortion is such a beautiful and colorful controlled chaos. And Sheridan / Kelly´s backing vocals and choirs also sound like angels, they give solemnity and grandiosity to the overall sound, almost like an opera. I love popstars, but sometimes an introverted people band is much more intense.

Been listening to the album heavily since its release. So many good songs. Watching them perform live adds so much texture. Thanks for the upload, one of my favorite vods of the year. 🥰

One of my fave bands ever, fantastic live band

Her voice and melody is amazing. It’s hypnotizing.

The host is what makes this video really shine.

At 2:38, that breakdown is devastating. Perfection. Brings tears to my eyes.

There are SO many bands doing this sort of thing (female-fronted 90s-ish indie rock) these days, but I tend to like most of them. This band is great!

this live intro for Easy On Your Own gets me every time, what a brilliant band

KEXP sound has been, is always, and will forever be impeccable. Blue Rev is such an easy quick and fun listen. An outstanding album!

Tom Verlaine is my favorite track of 2022. Such amazing composition and the vocal outtro is fantastic.

Los veo el sábado en Buenos Aires 🙌Gracias kexp por alimentar mi manijaaaa

the whole band is just Perfect, Her voice is art! I am very high right now and its just perfect

I love this band so much ❤ them and Men I Trust need more recognition

Love them since their first album 🇲🇽

About as good as it gets. One of the best live performances I've seen. I hope their star keeps rising.

molly rankin is an amazing singer, like holy shit

That grin by the host after Tom Verlaine would be me. Guy absolutely loves his job and I don't blame him

Wow. This sounds fucking incredible. Can’t wait to see them live.

Being a soul from the late 80s who grew up with My Bloody Valentine on non stop, this band has so many great tones.

OMG! I have discovered Alvvays like 2 months ago. I have listened to two previous KEXP live perforemances so many times that I remember every dialouge! Now i see new video posted 1 hour ago

so deeply in love with this band. thank u for releasing blue rev at this time. i know it'll be the sound of my early 20s when i look back from the future. much love from the Philippines!!

They have a old school rock sound love this stuff

Everyone go buy or stream Blue Rev at your soonest convenience. And play it loud, at shoegaze level so the waves of sound crash at the shores of your feet and you can smell the ocean from home.

great melodic tunes and performances.

Amo este grupo ❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥

This sounds insanely good. And they really seemed to enjoying themselves! Thank you KEXP.

It's such a spiritual relief to know that there is still music of realll substance coming out. I'm a big fan of lots of types of music but this stuff is just perfect.

Superb record, Blue Rev is a perfect album from start to finish.

Record's on repeat. Reminds me of the good old days of LP's for some reason. There's nothing groundbreaking or revolutionary about their new album and I can't even really tell what she's singing but it has been. on. repeat. Magic as whole not just a collection of good songs.

Amazing sound! KEXP does the best live recordings and what a wonderful performance. ❤

man i love this band. this was mixed so well. molly sounds so good as always. saw them live in atl n it was such a special show

Blue Rev is such a fantastic album. Alvvays sound even better live.

I love the atmosphere of the songs. From the first time I heard it, I was hooked on their timeless sound. (Molly 💋 🥰🥰🥰🇧🇷)
