I bought this solely based on everything that I read on this thread.
Having never heard any of the people involved, this has been mind-blowing (three listens today). It's not my usual bag but holy shit, this is sublime. Chris Corsano's drumming alone is worth checking this out. Then there's the dueling guitars. WOW.
Absolutely essential. Thanks everyone.

saw these guys last night, great show
also, as was mentioned somewhere upthread, Chris Corsano is really incredible to watch, was mostly just watching him drum for pretty much the whole set.

thanks! really hoping there's a show in my neck of the woods, but i'm not holding my breath.

I missed the DC show (and still need to check out the album based on the above raves and my prior familiarity with Bishop)

Is there really not an SF or Oakland show? Seems hard to believe.

i'm on the fence about tomorrow's knoxville show, but this thread's convincing me...

go go go go go ... they were great
― Stormy Davis, Monday, 13 September 2010 22:27 (thirteen years ago) link
GO. Especially at a venue like the Pilot Light - you can get up pretty close. They're so good, you want to see the set three times just so you can watch a different dude each time.

ha this is incredibly OTM from when I saw them, also from a few feet away - I kind of alternated between them like five minutes at a time

Oh my god, just heard this tonight and I'm pretty sure this immediately catapulted into my top ten for the year. Holy shit.

I've been trying hard to like this record but somehow it just doesn't click. I'm sure it might be fun to see them perform live tho.

What a fantastic triple bill, so absolutely jealous. I hope the roads stay clean and clear so that I may live the show through you!

theyre in london with borbetomagus next week. pissed emeralds arent playing as well but what the hey
― straightola, Tuesday, 30 November 2010 15:01 (thirteen years ago) link
record is still doing it for me. probably my favorite from 2010? i just want MORE -- they should definitely do a live album. Chasny seems to be putting out a collab with the lady from Magik Markers early next year ...
― tylerw, Tuesday, 30 November 2010 16:01 (thirteen years ago) link
Yes, a live album would be fantastic. Especially since I missed them with Major Stars at the Empty Bottle earlier this fall.

there should be a Rangda/Major Stars/Cave Drag City psych rock revue. and they should play in my backyard, preferably.
― tylerw, Tuesday, 30 November 2010 21:39 (thirteen years ago) link
Your backyard would then be a particularly great place to be! That would be a stellar lineup.
