MUNA - MUNA (June 24th, 2022) Album • Page 8

Not weird at all, I know a few people who feel the same

 

I can probably count on one hand how many POC pop punk bands, or more specifically POC pop punk bands with women in them, get to be on high profile tours like MM@TA is, and it really sucks that when it does happen people say shit like they’re being “inauthentic” and “seem contrived”. I rarely hear such complaints about the many white dude bands and artists who open a lot of the pop punk tours happening these days…

 

wtf MM@TA is fucking incredible

 

I’m just curious how the MUNA fandom reacted to them haha, weird pairing but I’m so pumped to have my face melted off two different ways haha

 

I can’t speak for others obviously but I can assure you I have complained plenty about them (the others you speak of)as well. I think both things can be true and I’d agree it is a shame. But Trust me - if I enjoyed one ounce of their performance I’d support them - and that’s all it comes down to for me.

 

Some were def into it and some were talking/yawning in the back. The same for most openers. It was a bit of a jarring mix with the exception of plain fact they were female bands.

 

Never heard of Meet Me @ The Altar before so checked them out and they sound fun! Really like the singers voice.

 

maybe I'm extremely pop-punk pilled from being in the Jason Tate Cinematic Universe for what feels like 2 decades, but I don't see how anyone could dislike them lol

 

Well to be fair I have not listened to the record(s)? This was my first time seeing or hearing them - maybe they are just a good studio band, then.

 

well I guess there's only one way to find out

 

Wait, you’re really out here criticizing a band without even listening to them on record? Come on.

 

Again I say, MM@TA fkin rocks and any slander of them is booty

 

I mean, to be fair - what incentive do I have to try out a new pop punk band that I didn’t enjoy live? Usually openers win me over or entice me. I’m not going to run home and Spotify a band I didn’t enjoy. Like I said, perhaps it’s all studio jazz.

 

Yes

 

If that's a Taylor cover, and it probably is, I'm gonna be SO EXCITED

 

It is.

 

Gaaahhhhhhh

 

Maaaaaan they know their way around a cover

 

the vocal performances on this EP are out of this world

who's singing Phoebe's part on Silk Chiffon? Doesn't super sound like Katie to me.

 

it's naomi

 

they killed it

 

This live take of Anything But Me sounds better than the album version; that guitar tone is punchy

 

they sound so good live
