Well, team, today’s the day that we turn social media black and white in honor of BiS. Why do we do it? Because so much of what we love probably wouldn’t even exist if BiS hadn’t come into the world six years ago, hadn’t run roughshod over idol for three-point-five years and gone out on their own terms.

And they’re back! Only Pour Lui still persists from the original lineups, but it’s still BiS, and goodness knows what happens from here. Their music, their antics, the sheer force of personality involved, it’s all thrilling. We’re living a moment here, people.
