If you're able to, go see them on this tour. It was my first time seeing them last night and they absolutely blew me away. I had no idea how intricate Yoni's involvement was in the instrumentation. All the guys sounded incredible and the set list was dope: Easy This Ole King These Few Presidents These Hands Gemini (Birthday Song) One Mississippi Proactivate Evolution Song of the Sad Assassin The Vowels Pt. 2 White English George Washington The Barely Blur Acoustic Encore: Hoofs The Hollows Simeon's Dilemma
sounds awesome, i can't wait to see them next week. your comment reminds me of this video of josiah playing the xylophone or whatever and the drums at the same time. i've wanted to see them live ever since
I didn't see a xylophone next to Josiah, but Yoni had a keyboard and a couple drums around him, as well as some electronic pad he would hit for sound effects and samples. Dude was singing, hitting the drums/pads, and would flip the stick around in the air in the middle of it all like it was nothing. So good.
Out of every woman on earth, who will I mate with? Or will I spit empty threats until all that's left is a million zeros printed on a roll of ticker-tape? And one last echo of the final tiny wave in my wake? Will all my unused seed collect like mercury In some kind of afterlife for halves? Should I offer up my lats and pecs as stakes in death?
Finally got to see these guys live tonight and they absolutely killed it, even better that they played one of my favorite albums ever front to back. 10 years later and Alopecia has still never gotten old.
7 minutes in heaven is better than 1 minute in heaven on first listen i really like the first two. second one feels like old school why i'm gonna guess the "I." at the start of the name is meant to be a roman numeral one, suggesting there will be more. it's listed as "I:" on youtube. they announced a full tour too TOUR DATES: 08/14 Indianapolis, IN @ Hi-Fi * 08/15 Grand Rapids, MI @ Pyramid Scheme * 08/16 Detroit, MI @ Magic Stick * 08/17 Toronto, ON @ Lee’s Palace ^ 08/18 Montreal, QC @ Le Ministère ^ 08/20 Holyoke, MA @ Gateway City Arts ^ 08/21 Boston, MA @ The Sinclair ^ 08/23 Brooklyn, NY @ Warsaw 08/24 Philadelphia, PA @ Union Transfer ^ 08/25 Washington DC @ U Street Music Hall ^ 08/26 Carrboro, NC @ Cat’s Cradle ^ 08/28 Atlanta, GA @ Terminal West ^ 08/29 Orlando, FL @ The Abbey ^ 08/30 Pensacola, FL @ Vinyl Music Hall ^ 08/31 Houston, TX @ White Oak Music Hall ^ 09/01 Dallas, TX @ Trees ^ 09/03 Austin, TX @ Mohawk ^ 09/04 Norman, OK @ The Opolis ^ 09/05 Santa Fe, NM @ Meow Wolf ^ 09/06 Phoenix, AZ @ Crescent Ballroom ^ 09/07 Los Angeles, CA @ Teragram Ballroom ^ 09/08 Santa Ana, CA @ Constellation Room ^ 09/10 Fresno, CA @ Strummer’s ^ 09/11 San Francisco, CA @ August Hall ^ 09/13 Portland, OR @ Revolution Hall ^ 09/14 Vancouver BC @ The Imperial ^ 09/15 Seattle, WA @ Neumos ^ 09/17 Boise, ID @ Visual Arts Collective ^ 09/18 Salt Lake City, UT @ Urban Lounge ^ 09/19 Denver, CO @ Bluebird Theater ^ 09/20 Omaha, NE @ The Waiting Room ^ 09/21 Minneapolis, MN @ Fine Line ^ 09/22 Chicago, IL @ Thalia Hall ^ * w/ Anna Burch ^ w/ Barrie
