the way they lost their entire personality and unique sound with dreamland and only continue to push themselves deeper into making boring selfless pop music will forever be the most upsetting thing that ever happened to any of my fav bands. you're kidding this is not the glass animals who dropped zaba

yikes! dunno where the “selfless” comment comes from since dreamland is literally autobiographical but go off i guess! plus the only things we’ve heard of new music are snippets so maybe dont judge a song/album that hasn’t even been released yet?? its shouts like these that make me wish lastfm had a dislike button fr

the snippet was enough to hear he even left his vocal style and started trying to lean into the same style as every radio-friendly pop artist does these days. i really hope i am wrong and that the album itself will have more than just this, but this snippet really made my heart sink once again

What the fuck are you talking about? Glass Animals is an experimental band that changes their style with each album. Dreamland was their most recent album and the only one with this mainstream sound. Now all we've heard is just tiny snippets of less than a minute from an album that's most likely around 45 minutes long and for which we don't even know a full song. You shouldn't judge an album when it was announced very recently by things as superficial as this. And if you still want to get so judgmental, just listen to this band's old material and that's it.

imo good attempt on a style change is when an artist is able to fit their songwriting style in the different genres and still sound like themselves. worked really well in zaba to htbahb change, the lyrics still had their unique interesting moments, dave's vocal style also worked really well, and of course their multi-layered instrumentals never went away. it didn't work with dreamland at all

You people act like you're so elite and special, when you shit on their newer songs. Sure, Dreamland is not as good as ZABA or How to Be a Human Being, but it's still a good fucking album with some great songs. It is a shame their previous albums didint get as much recognition as Heat Waves did, but Heat Waves got popular for a reason. You are allowed to dislike their newer work and style, but don't be a whiny baby because of it. God forbit artists grow and evolve through out the years, and experiment with different styles and genres.

Man fuck the haters, they don't have any gold records on the wall. They don't have the BILLIONS of spotify plays. Dreamland is a great album. This was always a pop band. Check out the first couple of EP's for reference. They always have the other albums to listen to. Or albiet, another fucking artist to listen to. I have had a few artists, that change their sound to something I'm not a fan of, but like an adult, I find something else to listen to...

heatwaves blew up because your taste isn’t the end all say all for music. people relate to and enjoy the song, not to mention it’s easily digestable and catchy. i’m not a huge fan of the dreamland album either, but why do other people need to enjoy their older stuff for YOU to be content? nonetheless, it’s glass animals, so let them enjoy what they want to.

9k listeners is pretty good. Something as large as 46k is only reserved for extreme pop/tiktok hits

im gonna be totally real here, if a fandom ruined a band for you, you never truly liked them in the first place. i found glass animals through youtube recs and it was one of the best discoveries ever, so i don’t come from the discovered-from-dsmp crowd. however, as long as they’re getting listens, does it matter?

Actually all the other songs by them that I listened until now are way more boring. Heat waves is a cool song and the chorus is awesome. Face it!

Billboard is not in charge of what gets played on the radio dumbass. They're a trade publication that compiles data from multiple sources into a single chart.

billboard charting is mainly based on radio plays though? like any person who follows the charts knows this. how else could it stay on the charts for 2 years..

The charts themselves basically half radio half streaming at this point in time. Yes, I follow charts very closely. Check this cool twitter page called CedricCharts for weekly percentage breakdowns of each song. Looks like as of his latest update, Heat Waves has 56% of its power from streams and 43% from radio. That's impressively stream-heavy for a song in its 85th week.

Anyway, Heat Waves has tons of streams and radio play because it's genuinely loved by the public. Not like one of those times when an artist will get a few thousand fans together to generate a bunch of fake purchases to force their song to #1.

heat waves is a good song, that being said i dont think it needs to be the top song.
