New music in 2025?

Looks like BSS will release new music in 2025 🤞 There've been a couple of references over the past few months. The latest being on Justin's Instagram Stories, where he has a post about a "lil book project for 2025" 🤞🤞🤞

The opening 30 seconds of Superconnected are pure heaven

Probably my favorite BSS track. I adore the intro, so atmospheric and contemplative. I could listen to it all day lol. If someone made a loop of it…

"Anthems for a 27 year old boy"

https://preview.redd.it/aonfof9vhntd1.jpg?width=1197&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=6d364bfb990d0f17ee11ad92ff56f4f8e00d679c

I checked the booklet of the self-titled album today and noticed this original title for Swimmers. It's also written by Emily. So is there a link between this song and 17 Year Old Girl? And also who's the boy Emily refers to?

Kevin Drew’s use of the f-slur

Howdy yall. Big BSS fan here. Was talking to my friend about the band recently and he is also a fan but said he was rubbed the wrong way by the song I’m still your *** from you forgot it in people. He said Kevin Drew is straight and his use of that word feels wrong for that reason. Does anyone have any thoughts on this? I just assumed he was queer because of his use of the word

Forgiveness Rock Record no longer on spotify

Just wondering if anyone can shed insight on what's happening with the availability of this album on Spotify, if it's coming back and maybe also why these guys seem to have trouble with Spotify? Feel good lost isn't on there either.

Neat callback to One Evening (Feist) in the Hotel ending riff

Was listening through S/T one day and at the ending of hotel I noticed some pretty strong similarities to the main guitar riff in One Evening by Feist. She's obviously a member of broken social scene so I thought it was just a really neat little callback to a solo song of hers by the bandmates that I've never really heard anyone on the internet talk about (:

Wonder Ballroom, Portland OR 8/18/24 performance

Sitting in the bar underneath the venue after an amazing BSS show. I feel so incredibly lucky to have seen them perform after years of loving them, and at a night separate from any tour or new material.

They absolutely killed it, such a passionate performance and you could tell from the banter in between songs that they really loved being there. A great setlist that spanned their whole career, and a great group of attendees that seemed to really enjoy seeing them. Their music has brought me so much solace and peace in my most tumultuous times, and seeing those people live made me feel apart of something greater than myself.

Thankful I got to witness that, and I hope to see them again soon! What an incredible night.

Ariel left?

I see on Wikipedia she is listed as having left the band in 2020? I saw her perform Dec 2022 and 2023 and she was at both shows but didn't play with them recently in Burlington, where Jill Harris was the only female vocalist, is this the new lineup?

Tattoo Ideas?

I'm thinking of getting a BSS/Kevin Drew tattoo but I'm not sure of what just yet. Preferably something related to YFIIP and Spirit If...

Any ideas or help?

BSS Plans?

Hi everyone, new to this group. Recently got into BSS and hoping to see them live in 2024/25. Does anyone know what their touring plans are? They've got a couple of festivals planned in September, is anyone aware of any plans beyond that, now that the 20th anniversary tour is wrapped up?

Wrote about "Superconnected" for my new music newsletter

"Was my go-to happy song actually about crushing despair? An inconclusive investigation, conducted back and forth across the sea of time."

Who was on the Largo Line up? Feist is in town for Jimmy Kimmel

Who were the special guest? Was at Joanna Newsom so had to miss this. So pissed that Emily & Jimmy were part of this (prob did more songs together)

And saw Feist announced a Jimmy Kimmel taping for today so I feel she was in town.

Gonna cry if it was feist and the entire og line up. Wish they did that the festival or longer set.
