Meet Bigblast; ANOTHER French band with undecipherable lyrics who bring the jams

Srsly, what's going on in France? 2 of my favourite bands are already from there and now I've stumbled across Bigblast who combine lots of good elements like

  • Melodic hardcore
  • Female vox <3
  • A name that is just terrible
  • Undecipherable lyrics
  • Silly accents
  • A 'fun on tour' video 
They've just released a video for 'Tonight we own this place', which I'm guessing is about living for that moment you step on stage and all the travel is worth it. Maaan.

  • Nice to see the chick singer helps with the gear, that's equality in hardcore. Srs.
  • Nooo idea what the lyrics are, really.
  • I really love the back and forth vocals, especially when the girl sings a line by herself with no music.
  • 00.38 ZANY TOUR ANTICS
  • The singer has the right mix of keeping it real and keeping it cute.
  • 01.04 ZANY TOUR GUY STRIKES AGAIN. Also, 1.73 per litre? Oof.
  • Hmm..these guys have defo been on tour
  • If you want to know what gigs are like most of the time on tour with a DIY band pay attention to 2.34 - band rocking out, giving it their all. 5 ppl standing around at the front, half watching :(
  • Alriiight they drink shots, maybe we should hang!
I've actually found a video with their lyrics..think it was better not knowing..

  • 'keep direction, don't turn off'
  • Loving all the lingo 'bros', 'sick' etc
  • 'Nothing in stomach' lolololol
  • 'we ain't no fan' lolwat?
I probably shouldn't be so harsh seeing as I was pretty bad at French but hey, what's the internet for if not making fun of things you like?

They're on the internet here -> Bigblast

Courage My Love have a new video, it's not as much fun as their other ones (But I still have a new music crush)


Every so often I become slightly obsessed with some new band I've just heard, repeatedly listening to their music, watching their videos and generally consuming anything they've done, like an Asian kid at a hot dog eating contest. And usually what happens is simillar to said kid, I overdose after a short but glorious time and can't look at a hot dog again for quite a while, before enjoying them again like a regular person.

Enter Courage My Love, a Canadian pop punk band who combine many of the things I (not so secretly) love/make fun of;

  • Upbeat, catchy pop punk that could probably get on the radio
  • Female vox
  • Female harmonies on the vox
  • EXTRA BONUS POINTS: TWINS WHO SING HARMONIES
  • Silly lyrics
  • Super posi outlook, all of the fun
  •  Breakdowns!
  • A ginger guy with glasses doing well for himself
 My twitter feed was fuller than an Asian kid at a... ok I'll stop, there was a lot of hype on twitter about their new video, which has PREMIERED today and I gotta say I'm kinda like totally stoked aswell brah.

  • It looks srs, oh noes!
  • 00.25 - vox in, still no band footage, wut?
  • DAT DIALOGUE.
  • The code is on a piece of paper, LOL. mega spies.
  • Twin fight!
  • Nevar trust a ginger
All in all, not what I was hoping for so here's their other (fun) videos


I'll still be front row at their gigs if I get to Canada like I hope to this summer. Singing like a tween girl and moshing training bras off. Still <3 u guise!

They're on bookface --> Courage My Love
