Years and Years 

A British/Australian electronica trio founded in London consisting of members Olly Alexander (Frontman singer voice of an angel), Emre Turkmen (Synth player) and Mikey Goldsworthy (Bassist).
Their music has been described as electropop, mixing R&B and '90s house elements, with Flying Lotus, Diplo, Radiohead and Jai Paul being their core influences. Each and every song is appealing in a different way and have I mentioned how incredible Olly Alexander's voice is? Its pretty incredible.
Person one- Have you heard Years and Years' new song 'King'? Its amazing!
Person two- Yes! my favourite is 'Real'! I have it playing all the time!
Person one- Their music is so majestic!

Surf Dracula Syndrome 

A phenomenon in film/television series, most notably streaming series, where the main premise is drawn out to such a point that it takes an entire season or more to get the parts of the series the audience is actually interested in seeing.

For example, if a series is titled "Surf Dracula," a majority of viewers would tune in expecting to see Dracula surfing by the first or second episode. However, the entire first season would instead be tedious padding and backstory before finally ending with Dracula surfing in the last five minutes of the season finale.
I watched "Smallville" on Netflix the other day. Dude, it was ten seasons of filler before he finally flew! Major Surf Dracula Syndrome!
