aero was raving about how much this band ruled so I thought I'd check them out. He was right. Holy hell I love this.

This is kind of what I thought Interpol was going to sound like, rather than what they actually sounded like.

they were so good live last night that my bassist & I were completely freaking out. like, every song was just hired-assassin hitting-every-spot stick-the-landing great. there's one song where it sounds like the drummer's playing in 6 and the band's playing in 4 and it all works, I asked them later and they said "well, yeah, it's actually in 4 but I know what you mean" and I was like man this band is something.

yeah he is a monster. very unassuming performance style, just doing the work, but watching his focus is genuinely inspirational

the chorus of "restlessness memorialized" just killed me. what a cool band

I tweeted that they should tour with tricot and Algiers; now I'm thinking I should swap out Algiers with Marriages and do a set of Creatures covers with all three drummers.

I know a band who hopes to take these guys out on tour at some point

I don't know how well these guys will play to the Lukas Graham crowd, though

I decided to try the other album since I was so into this one. The first track is a VERY slow build but I'm digging it.

I love the title track. Is that a pun on "tenor madness"?
― jmm, Tuesday, 6 December 2016 22:15 (seven years ago) link
the drummer's style reminds me very much of jason reece from trail of dead fwiw
― Dave Plaintive rapper with classical training (imago), Tuesday, 6 December 2016 22:17 (seven years ago) link
This is great.
― Le Bateau Ivre, Tuesday, 6 December 2016 22:22 (seven years ago) link
