.
they played yesterday night at the Bang Bang Club. one of the best shows this year in town.
55 minutes of grace and energy.
Alden and Brendan (and of course the other three musicians involved) are musicians. doing music.
until you haven't seen them playing live, you won't be able to really get it.
this song reminds me a lot of the original Arcade Fire (until Brendan, Myles, Dane and all the other musicians left; at that time, they were closer, in their spirit, from Neutral Milk Hotel than from U2).
a dynamic born out of uncramped concentration, seemingly boundless in its scope.
there would be so much to say about this band.
there will be. soon.
this song appears in a rawer version on the b-side:
it's Brendan who sings on that one, of course.
he should do this more often. (listen to his vocal appearence on Think About Life's first album's Bastian and the boar - it's devastating, really.)
listen.
