Amazing. I can’t help though, but feel that I preferred the originals line-up(s) better. It feels too polished if that is something I can complain about.
As much as i love this album, and the concept of THIS performance… For me… It is undeniably MISSING a true feeling of joy without Jesse Marty Neil or Dave. THAT is the SHINS… I know “James” IS the shins… writer, cornerstone. But so was Pete Townshend. But to watch him play say the ‘my generation’ LP live with like his brother Simon on LEAD guitar 🙄😑 And Zach Starky drumming and such… It isn’t The Who- with out Daltry Entwistle and mostly MOON! I love James. I’m so thankful he came along in time and created such an amazingly beautiful record as well as the rest of his catalog… Thank you for this ~ 👏🏻 Anyway. Anyhow. Anywhere.
hearing Your Algebra live added something to my life I didnt know was missing lol. Jon Sortland with those drums goddamn 👏 👏 Also does anyone have the full lyrics for this version?
That whole performance was electric, but The Past and Pending was especially affecting. Joseph’s backup vocals elevated it to a level I didn’t know existed.
You know, I saw this show with my friend at Radio City last year, and I had to tell the dummies behind me to shut up during that song. I asked if that was out of order, and she said, “no, it’s a quiet song”. It’s a lovely song.
This is a recording instead of a direct download, but after watching the livestream and re-watching this recording multiple times it sounded exactly the same, it seems to be common for live shows to not have as much low end/bass afaik
THANK YOU!!!! incredible! Paramount theatre seems to be a spot where they just kill it. Your Algebra - insane! As well as Weird Divide! Girl on the Wing has been a favorite of mine.::ugh. So good. Wincing the Night Away may be my favorite album- but gotdamn, this is so catchy. Im in love again!
