i dunno. I quite enjoyed them live, but that's partly just cos of watching them perform, and seeing their guitar playing and drumming.

but i really don't know how to compare all these noisy duos based on one listen.. they all sound roughly the same.

lightning bolt:

first album: noisy, scrapy -> second album: more melodic, songy.

hella:

first albums: melodic, tom lehrer tunes innit -> latest album: scabrous noise.

hella want to be (what) lightning bolt (were). lightning bolt want to be hella. I think. roughly.

so they should just meet in the middle, and form one messy 4 piece band.

imagine the noise from those shows..

two of my flatmates and one friend are in them. I'm in this one but only so little of me (bottom right: 3 (?) heads in is half my sweaty head).
