You guys are great. I’m working on it, and will keep you posted. But look, in the meantime, seriously, do check out other shows and videos on my channel, loads of great bands, with more to come out of storage. Also, my band, Lorde Awesome; totally worth checking out. Cheers from Toronto!
Even just at my house w/ headphones on I can feel how crushingly loud this performance is. Swans must require the ear plugs of death to stomach in concert. Can't wait to see them when they eventually return
Swans give you the sensation that the sound is inside your skull, emanating from your brain. That's how loud they are - at least, that's how it was for me. Earplugs are a must, though they feel useless when the band are really going for it.
I met Michael Gira a few minutes after they came off stage and as he signed a CD he kinda nodded and smiled at me and said “I can’t hear a fucking thing.”
Yeah, sound in the red, how it should be. Most recordings are a bit too clean to bring across the loudness and the fucking dark unsettling frequencies Swans conjure up.
I'm also available for weddings and bar mitzvahs. Btw Sammy, here's the whole show. Just uploaded. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-TyMMvmuDYZo.html
Thanks very much, man. The link is above, where it says "click here for the full show", but also here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-TyMMvmuDYZo.htmlsi=LvObbf7kXUmwTt4R
Norman's part follows the bass part. They play the same exact rhythm. You can hear him come in right at 30 seconds. I've just never heard a guitar make those noises before lol
@@EvilLadderGaming hmmm well I know he uses a vintage MXR blue box and a Boss DS-1. he plays a vintage Fender telecaster with a humbucker bridge pickup in it
I’m not sure who I want to cover this version more: Tool or Devin Townsend. Because of how awesome this recording is, it doesn’t need a cover, but I’m still curious.
