i remember just as little as 2 years ago nobody on here paid the beach boys (aside from pet sounds) no mind and now everybody on here celebrates their discography. i remember getting hated on for reccing sunflower! what happened?
love and mercy came out and they've become more trendy to like
>some trips shilled the beach boys until people liked them
>love and mercy
>brian's new album and autobiography
>50th anniversary of pet sounds
more or less sums it up

Brian is going to die soon
Man I'm so thankful I was able to see the 2011 release of The SMiLE Sessions and the see reunited Beach Boys at Wembley in 2012.

About three years ago, a couple of overzealous fans started posting dedicated threads and the "Brian Wilson appreciation squad" started invading Beatles, GOAT albums and 60s pop threads. It was pretty fun and eventually people started paying attention and stuff like >>69932167
helped give them more exposure.

I still don't like them. Very bland bubblegum bullshit.

Really tho? I'm not even sure I'd be crazy to see them in their prime. I'm sure it'd be incredible but they probs wouldn't even make it into my "top 50 concerts I would time travel to" and SMiLE is my favourite album.
Brian stopped touring with them after Today! which is when they really started taking off and then by the time he came back, his brain was fried and his voice was starting to go.
Noways, Brian's a vege-table, the other Wilsons are dead and Mike Love is an egotistical ass who thinks he owns the band.
