Narwhal Someone Probably

@skyllie The Beach Boys were ahead of their time. They revolutionized music, and music production, as we know it today. All those indie pop bands you love might as well be writing Brian Wilson royalty checks every damn month because he flipped the industry on it's freakin' head. They bridged the gap between artful pop music experimentation and commercial appeal, and wrote some of the most important music of their era. They, especially later in their career, defied genre and consistently challenged their fans with innovative yet idiosyncratic ideas. Without the Beach Boys music would most definitely NOT be the same.
