Phoebe Bridgers, Julien Baker and Lucy Dacus are boygenius. Although only in their late twenties, all three of them can already look back on highly successful solo careers.

There are ups and downs in every band's career but the latter ones are way harder when your start was a furious one. And it looks like many groups from the glorious 00s indie movement are in an ongoing creative crisis.
