Stop Motion Dinosaurs

“So it’s true, when all is said and done, grief is the price we pay for love”

Universal experiences like grief, sadness, loss, feeling melancholy are exceptional experiences for art/music. It inspires creatives to put an emotional vulnerability into their work. This emotional vulnerability is key to engaging with others. This allows people to see a mirrored humanity in the art and work. When someone recognizes themselves in art it becomes a shared experience rather than a exhibition about a singular experience.

The music from Stop Motion Dinosaurs are littered with names that instantly draw you in. Track names like A Job You Hate, That’s What I Get, Not Good Enough, and I’m Not Not Sad. They are all something that maybe not everyone can share in personal experience and emotion but at least many people can see these track names and understand that the people who wrote them are real and they have life experiences that aren’t alien but genuine and common.

The track I’m Not Not Sad by them is catchy, melodic, pop punk mixed with some folk elements. It feels like youth, it feels like angst without the deeply morose elements of many other angsty bands. It feels like pleasant disagreeable emotion that is fun to listen to and an experience that is known. It feels like music that strikes a chord and we must say that we enjoy it and feel like you will too! Check it out here along with the rest of their catalog and make sure to support indie artists as it may not mean the world to you that they make music but it means the world to them that we listen to it!
