yeah they were cool. jimmy lavelle was the main guy, he's currently in the album leaf who i think are back in ireland at the start of next month.
he also plays/played in the locust. you can decide if that's a good thing or not.

Re: Tristeza

Jeez, it looks like this June may possibly by my busiest month for gigs ever! The last gig in Whelans was beautiful. Hopefully he'll be playing there again.

Re: Tristeza

Was checking the Album Leaf website, Ireland doesn't seem to be included on their European tour, your right, pity that.

Saw them in a Squat in Amsterdam 3 years ago!!!
Myself and 2 mates, 2 locals and the rest were memebers of Shalabi Effect(who supported).
Had a big suck off a doobie before they started...from they`re on in it was all just...heavenly!!!Tristeza and Shalabi effect jammed together at the end for a half an hour - was one of the most mindblowing performaces i`ve seen.
I then proceeded to beg them (& Shalabi Effect) to come to Ireland - but Shalabi Effect went for it(i then had to beg Nessy in Dublin, who rightly went for 'ok!' and put them on!, cause i was afraid to do gigs back then, too complicated).

I`ve been the coolest motherfucker on the block ever since i went to Tristeza....the coolest moffo on the friggin'block!!ninjaaaa

ahem.

Re: Tristeza

rednecks played two gigs with tristeza, in rotterdam and belgium about three years ago. they were nice dudes, but didn't seem to be talking to each other very much. really good live, lots of space and locked grooves. the second album, the one on tigerstyle is the one i like best, tracks one and five rock. totally under-rated band, nice one for bringing them up.

Re: Tristeza

Yeah, "dream signals in full circles" is on tigerstyle. The first track is one of my favorites too along with 7 chiaroscuro. Picked up and e.p called "Espuma" on gravity in tower last week, pretty sweet also.

Re: Tristeza

Oh and just received their first album "Spine and Sensory" in the post this morning. It's expanded and remastered with three extra bonus tracks and bloody great (for anyone who was slow like me in purchasing it)!!!!

"Spine and Sensory is a soaring, hypnotic, and dreamy journey beyond traditional rock territory that delves into the realms of jazz, electronic music, and psychedelia" - Epitonic

that was a great gig..the sound was sweet that night. Wheelans is a deadly venue when there are only around 50 people there.
