and they're already mixing after releasing an album less than a year ago? (looks in pearl jam's direction)
Yeah. I love this band. The clip sounds good and so different. Every SR album sounds different.

They're silly.
There’s quite a bit of good info in there, on the upcoming tour, on some issues that maybe needed a bit of explanation, on a new album this year, on future tour plans. All in all, a pretty interesting session. I’ve seen much worse.

So I saw them yesterday.
They are great. The new band is great. The rearrangements for a couple of old songs are great. I thought I heard a new song which was great.
They could play a total fuck-up of a show, end it with a manic, 13 minute Popplagið and still make it the greatest show of the year for me.
What a band!

I was blown away by these guys when I saw them last year, the shit they have going on on the screens is fucking amazing. I saw them at a festival and just sat back on the lawn watching the screens and listening.

Denver show coming up in a few weeks. never seen them live and am not super familiar with their collection. What should I definitely have a handle on? I feel as though their albums are musical pieces and works of art that need to be played in their entirety. So i should just get a hold on the most recent album?
