Amplified: Best Coast

[shewolf418]

why is his shirt unbuttoned for the interview? perhaps he looks cooler that way

[Grimdopple]

if she was hanna montana, hanna would of been cool.

[headdbangaa]

what was that song she was playing!

[L0veepanicc]

@headdbangaa "so gone"

[FuturisticRetroRobot]

How can you possibly dislike living New York City ?

[greendaykicksbut1231]

She's dating the Wavves kid. They make a great couple.

[Chodechinian]

i wish i could get signed by writing shitty music

[RyanTheWest]

New Yorkers love New York. Film at Eleven.

[jolsonator]

so you're just a huge surf rock poser! hahaha that was funny

[andrehendrik]

of course a corporate page like ABCNews has to moderate its comments

[artistsandbox]

wonder if she's related to chris cosentino

[starmanspr]

i think what really makes best coast such an attractive band is the sound is fuzzy like being played out of a 60s radio. it sounds like something that's already coming out of a boombox on the beach and it puts you there so effectively. bethany definitely nailed the sound.

[Metalfanmusicfan]

I love this band. I so badly want to see them live next month.

[BasedCamu]

whhatt... how come they didnt mention Pocahaunted? :(

[PorroFirst]

Looks reeal tired

[twcsaved777]

i love best coast but hate cali. well just L.A. Mostly the people

[RadioWar1212]

the worst tattoos ever

[7leftside]

California is the BEST place to be from live in and die in... I'm from Los Angeles born and raised and i couldn't imagine living somewhere else.. there everythig in la, san Fran is my 2nd fab city in the world.. you just can't beat the beauty and culture of California... it's has soul, something ny will never have

CALIFORNIA represent!!!!

[jellohead122000]

@7leftside I'm with you on all that was said, brother. Best state hands down!

San Gabriel Valley representing!!!

[andrehendrik]

@7leftside

LA is the most soulless place on the planet

[crypttonite]

@andrehendrik is Los Angeles this way? things that are industries, music products, insiders like Bethany...I know bands who've made way way better albums, everyone's never heard of them, they aren't magically appearing on Letterman or ABC-Bethany is connected it's no accident, a shit ton of bands in the same LA scene make music and never get notice.

there are cool kids in LA making music, there are real people in Los Angeles

[andrehendrik]

@crypttonite yea sorry I shouldn't generalize like that. i mean it really does seem pretty soulless but i also know that talented people (outside the corp entertainment world) go there and make shit happen. dj harvey lives in santa monica i think so it can't be all bad

[yorunokurai]

They didn't even mention Pocahaunted!

[BlingVision]

could bethany cosentino be related to alison mosshart? hmm...

[LIVVify]

i like her, she seems real. i like that she likes that people think her lyrics sound like they were written by a 16-year-old because it shows how aware she is of the industry and the fact that she's referencing 50s/60s music is sweet ;)

[ozmonsta]

She's so cool :D

[blueskiesbeforeyou]

I love Bethany.

[urmyplaygroundluv]

@twostepsteezy Well said. I was born and raised in San Francisco. I don't think I could live anywhere else in the world. California is the most diverse state in all of America. The people, diversity, culture, landscape, beaches, forests, cities, artistry, music --it's what makes California. I'm proud to be Californian, and even prouder to be a born and raised San Franciscan. BTW, GOOOOO GIANTS!!! =)

[IzzyIsRad]

It's funny how someone said "the lyrics sound like they've been pulled out from a sixteen year olds diary" because honestly I'm 15 and nearly every song has had a connection with me. Even if Bethany said not all the songs were about things in her life.. These songs are the anthems to a teenagers life. I first cried when I listened to When I'm with you. It's just so true

[ChachiTelevision1979]

I remember that Little Caesars commercial! We used to love that one!

[fistyeah21]

It's called "Best Coast" for a reason. Not an East Coast band.

[Jasonmyways]

I'm from England and i get homesick in hot climates. I don't feel at home in nice weather! I'm not taking the piss either... There's something comforting about wrapping up warm

[TheJSource]

she has a soul........

[blueclothondesk]

I like amplified, actually good bands

[spartan2600]

I love her music, but I don't understand the whole california fetish. I've been to San Diego, but I prefer Wisconsin. There is no variation in conditions in California, and thats boring.

[sandwichsteen]

@spartan2600 If you're from somewhere sunny like california, living up North can make you really miserable. Trust me, I'm from Arizona and I moved to Connecticut - I know exactly what she means. Now I live in MN and with Fall coming, I'm ready to either move or kill myself.

[mamothmanX]

@sandwichsteen I understand disliking winter but people come from warm climate areas to northern states for fall to see the leaves change.

[jacobtheebruce]

indie celeb yall

[NawticJ]

She look hella old!

[smallcretzuli]

@NawticJ Try again when you're old enough to have pubes.

[Carrots1919]

I'm glad she turned them down.

[bolebruchs]

I like this music but now that I know that it was spawned out of her dislike of NY, Im not so sure, as Im a native NY'er. Plus, the interview also revealed how pretentious this girl really is. I mean in the end they joke about her being a poser, but its really kind of true.

[jellyface]

@bolebruchs Your dumb.

[MrMarco2012]

@bolebruchs oooh COME ON, it's just music, sound good,pretty song, you don't need to judge her

[alotofcheese76]

@bolebruchs truetrue

[seachristie]

I knew she didn't just come out of the woodwork.

[Kravis63]

I'm in love! Hi Bethany!

[tom316100]

nice :-)

[daydreaming92]

She looks like this old friend i use to have.

best coast rule

[lackluster75]

she gives me chills..

[bearingsunrise]

This guy probably forgot that the surf rock sound wasn't created on the beach. It is widely known that all of the Beach Boys, except Dennis Wilson, actually rode the waves. Does this make Brian Wilson a "poseur"?

[modernwaytodance]

aw shes so cute but omg ew kinda rude @ the end haha

[cooljammer00]

Child actor to indie sensation...

So...Jenny Lewis?

[GuitarGod7878]

thank the lord she didnt turn into a "hannah montana"...

best coast forevaa<3

[DietSodaSon]

miserable in new york? must have been an nyu student.

[cmatthews926]

@DietSodaSon lol, ouch. Yeah, why is it that so many students hurl themselves from that libary?

[SilentEcho33]

@DietSodaSon lmao so true

[johnnybgood12345]

@DietSodaSon more like new school student ;)

[dwayneb9584]

@DietSodaSon HAHAHAHAHHAHHAHAHHAHAHAH Second that hahahahahaha. This comment made me grab a cold beer.

[ScubaRobNJ]

@DietSodaSon haha thank you for making my night

[tortillamobster]

Bethany... *drools*

[MrCb0t]

[TipsFromMike]

Seriously, perfect.

[TheMischleys]

We love Bethany Cosentino and Best Coast!!
