Well, this (combined with coffee) has been getting me through the morning.. Between The Buried And Me..
For a live recording, its pretty unbelievable.. Classically trained dudes, their sound and how tight they are is just ridiculous.. (Although I realise its probably recorded over several takes..)
Also, the Sunn 300T and Spector that the bassist is rocking, are fvcking sexy..

The keyboard player is terrible - he looks like someone that took four lessons in primary school and said **** it - I'll be a singer instead. He's a great singer though.Quote:

When people hear me play guitar they always say " at least you can play keyboards".

Trump was USFL.
Bon... 29 days :brrr:
I've gone back to the beginning, crank through each previous album in a week... throwing in a few listens to Show Yourself and Sultan's Curse.
Yeah man! I was cranking a lot of them, but have put them on hold until after the weekend, as I've been revisiting Killswitch Engage in prep for tomorrow nights show at the Enmore.. You heading down?Quote:

Nah. Devy is my next gig. I had so many years off metal that I haven't listened to any new KSE for a few years... same with Gojira, still haven't listened to last years album.Quote:

This stuff looks like lot of fun to play with some very kewl riffs buried in amongst that wall of sound. Would hate to be the drummer though.Quote:

What is it about it that you can't get in to, hawk?
BTW the show was amazing.. So good live, and a funny bunch of dudes too - you can really tell they enjoy what they do and it shows in their music and stage presence..
My gateway into KSE was even more mainstream sounding... in parts.Quote:

Yeah!!!!! I saw it on Sat.. Looks and sounds awesome, but I was a little freaked out with how much they are pushing the idea of "less is more" with his fills..
It makes sense, but I don't want them dumbing him down either.. haha
For some it is probably a testosterone thing but I would think they would be the vast minority. For most I think it is the depth of lyric, community and sense of belonging that happens in that world (maybe less so for more mainstream bands like Killswitch).Quote:

Grim, time to start rubbing up a chubs.. Mastodon just released the full version of Andromeda..

Awwww yissss.
oh and in a perfect piece of casting John Butler trio is supporting Midnight Oil.
Make sure you take your pens and paper to jot down the lecture you're gonna get.
Clowns.
When the politics became bigger than the music is when I lost all interest in Midnight Oil - anything from and including 10to1 doesn't float my boat at all.Quote:

With respect to John Butler it's probably more of the same only he never made 3 good albums before it all went to shit.

HAHAHA That was awesome..
I'm heading to Sydney on Sunday night to see Meshuggah play..
Made me feel the urge to dig up an awesome clip of some Russian "gang" dancing, put to Meshuggah's music.. (I'm sure we have posted it on here somewhere before)
Every time I watch it, I lose my sh!t..

Yeah defo those 3 things make sense. I dont really get into lyrics that often which is probs sacrilege in the highest. Thats why I still like a Benny Hill chase theme. Probs also why I liked that 90's stuff.Quote:

Great film clip.
Next week!

Pretty awesome clip.. A lot less polished than most of their previous ones, but a sweet concept.. haha..Quote:

Would go see again, pretty damn awesome live show full of their usual pyrotechnics and phallic imagery.. Mixed with some CGI stuff just to keep you going "wtf?" - especially when viewing it not-low..
(On a hilarious note, there was some sort of film festival going on - the lobby was packed out - and a few old nannas definitely found themselves in the wrong theatre, taking in the meaty riffs and massive cock cannons spraying foam in the movie)
It was only just then that I realised it was Arsene Wenger on the keyboards.. haha
