are these any use?

I love the stuff I'm hearing from their new album, but some of the old stuff I heard before sounds kind of boring.

they play whelans on wednesday.

I might go.

 

[Lili Marlene]

I saw them that time when I saw them.

They were boring.

i have shivering king and others. it's pretty good but i've never had the urge to buy anything else. they could go either way live. i'd say there's a lot of noodling

I like their 1st album quite a bit as it happens. Nice clear vinyl. But there's not much by way of variation going on there and I lost my way after the 3rd one.
Never seen them live but I'd definitely give them a look if I had the chance.

Personally cant stand the new material in light of the older stuff. My first exposure to them was Feathers which i enjoyed immensly at the time even if it did sound more like early verve than anything I'd consider sludge. After the first three albums were re-released however I could never go back to the Feathers, feels so clean, polished and sterile in comparison.

I've been really looking forward to catching these for a couple of years now but i'm a little apprehensive seeing as the latest effort is so weak.

 

[Jasper]

Yep, i like some of their stuff (Feathers in particular) but a lot of stuff is very very average. No sure if i'll go - so much good stuff coming up.

 

[HMD]

I'm looking forward to seeing them. I bought a their live album a while ago, if they sound like the do on that i'll be happy.

 

[rettucs]

I reckon I'll definitely go so. Enough food for thought in the posts here. And if their new stuff is their worst stuff, I reckon I'll not be disappointed.

cheers folks.

oh, fuck.

If anyone gets stage times please post them. Thanks.

this was great. Went from meh to 100 in about 6 seconds. They were rockin by the end. Great sound. Kinda reminded me of some of the Avatar stuff by Comets on Fire, which is no bad thing.

 

[HMD]

*in a very lazy way

nah, not really. They used to be Mainline. They stop by occasionally and it ain't pretty when they do!
