Car Seat Headrest - Full Performance (Live on KEXP) 

This crowd doesn't look like they realize they're seeing one of the greatest bands in the world.

Ethan was one hell of a bass player before Seth joined

This crowd was blessed by this set, and, maybe it's just the Classic KEXP Mixing guarantee, this performance. Ethan on bass has such energy and Will poured out some of those lyrics.

This version of Times to Die is to die for.

"I get signs from the audience" 😂😂

Love to see Cheryl grooving out on the sidelines haha what a hero

Fill In the Blank: 0:00 Vincent: 4:57 Times to Die: 10:59 1937 State Park: 18:13 Unforgiving Girl (She's Not An): 22:30

the bass player is goin fuckin hard

CSH as a 3pc is so raw and driving. Captures the feel of some of the early recordings.

Blimey. I've bought (and loved) the last two albums and this is the time I've seen him. Not since Beck I have got the voice-to-the-face thing so wrong.

wish the bass was louder

will toledo is the greatest lyricist who ever lived

rip will's distortion pedal

Sounding great on the new stuff. Enjoying the new album so much.

For the first five minutes, I was like this crowd is standing completely still.. wth

*"It feels like it's been out forever, but... not yet!"*

I didnt know mclovin had is own solo project

I love how he's wearing a bbc radio 6 shirt on a completely different radio station

I forgot about this band I used to listen to them so much

it seems like they gave Will a bunch of sleeping pills and just dragged him on stage

Absolutely addicted to Car Seat Headrest, but definitely needs that second guitar to get that fuller sound, or at least a louder Bass to balance Will's much high-end sounding distortion, Not a lot of thickness in the instruments for Wills scratchy vocals

There is hope for the future - the best I've heard in a long time !!

Bassist is going ham with those downstrokes

I think I may have gone gay for Will. :o

Fucking hell, that was great! Smart, funny, passionate, and monsterously tight. Had I been there I'd have kicked Mr. Hands-in-pockets-pat-pat-applause in the back of the knees and danced over his prostrate, apathetic ass. Mind you, I turn fifty day after tomorrow so I'd end up spraining something, still, it'd be totally worth it. This is the sort of music that reminds me that my soul isn't yet entirely made of cinder and ash. Thanks KEXP and thanks Car Seat Headrest.

Kind of a Velvet Underground vibe actually. I can appreciate this music. It definitely has a stripped-down, indie vibe to it, which is in the tradition of Sonic Youth, Pavement, maybe even this little band called Possum Dixon that some of you may remember. Not bad.

follow the bass player on twitter @OhNoEthanIves he deserves more

I wish the bass was louder :(

I know a fantastic local band here in Illinois who played on VH1's Make a Band Famous called the spectators, if KEXP could get them in for a performance I think the viewers would really enjoy their sound

this sounds so much better than the album version.

What an awful audience.

i wish they’d have played vincent noisier but still an awesome show!

He kinda looks like a male Bob's Burgers Tina.

If you don't think the sound quality is good enough you don't have your volume up high enough

who knew Mclovin would go on to front a band - and a FUCKING great band no less!

Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I've been waiting for this.

Powerful bass 👍🏻

Holy shit! I like a lot this band.

Amazing even with the omissions and censoring.

Sounds a bit flat. The studio session would have worked better, I guess.

I fucking love this band 🙌🏼

Ethan nearly swallowed the mike at the end omfg

1937 state park isn't the same without the keyboard part :C

they should of played destroyed by hippie powers or connect the dots

somebody wake up the singer, i can't understand wtf he's mumbling

It's great seeing Ethan on bass duties lol

BA BOP

joy division and sonic youth had a kid

Id love to know what that bass player is actually playing but it cant hear him

27:41 hahaha!! Oh dear.

This is pretty good

You have no right to be depressed But I do Because I am old And I know who Jonathan Richman is.

how did the crowd not yell "stay the fuck down" at the appropriate time? disappointed.

Scott Pilgrim right here

Rockin my cubicle

it's so cooooooool

These guys have a lot of buzz, but I really feel like there are other bands that deserve it more than this

Sebasour Sr 2016

f l i p i n g h e c k

Sounds muffled.

i do hate these timber of voices

mc lovin :D

Sounds thin :/

man whoever did sound for this show should get fired though.

No bueno!

Wth with the crowd

Asian kung fu generation

Great band. Great record. Sound no good

That crowd is weak

Sound isn't great. They sound like a 3rd rate Guided by Voices to me. Some interesting guitar lines but there is too much going on in the songs for my taste. The vocals are miles out of key at times. Too much hype from the internet trying to tout them as saviours of indie rock.

the bassist is great. the drummer is good. the guitar and vocals are boring as fucking hell. which is funny cause he's the bandleader

Kinda reminds me of Ramones.

q wea mas mala xd

Listening to this dude try to sing is like listening to Lil Wayne trying to play guitar. I've listened to a ridiculous amount of music that contains questionable vocal ability throughout the years, but this has got to be one the worst live vocals that I've ever heard from a band that's getting buzz. What the fuck is that noise that he makes around 1:38

Pretty meh for a band that is getting so much buzz to be honest. Perfectly passable, middle of the road indie band (with quirky name, glasses, etc.) with songs you've all but forgotten about before you make it home from the show.

Very mediocre. The bassist is the best part of this.

Another vapid band..pounding out over-used riffs with forgettable vocals and zero innovation. Keep trying..and wait until you have it right. TODAY..ANYONE can form a band -practice for 6 months and go "public". Everything is RELATIVE and why would anyone listen to this over authentic/talented/innovative music from prior years??? Answer-just because its not from prior years....
