LickGoldenSky: Rumors and Stereotypes[views:2718][posts:8]_________________________________________________ [Sep 14,2004 2:07pm - the_taste_of_cigarettes ""] 1) this band played a fest, got bumped from a 6pm slot to a 1pm slot, so the guitarist set there letting feedback ring out for 20 mins while the drummer ate a bag of potato chips as big FUCK YOU. 2) this band played CT with us and were so peaved at the crowd enthusiasm/output that they played one song for 15 minutes which I detailed in another post. Incredible. 3) the band is known for being very tricky. I heard they broke up recently, but it would be much like them to be just kidding. Anyone know more? honestly, like their music or not, this is true expression. I usually don't like convention when it comes to music, and for what I DO like of convention, I like to see it challenged. that's the stuff i liked about Nirvana...what I like about Sonic Youth. It's what I liked about Converge in the 90s, and some other bands. |
______________________________________ [Sep 14,2004 2:25pm - the_reverend ""] they once did a show where they played the same song over and over again like 10x. they also did a show where they played one songs and then let an ear splitting feedback loop for 25 minutes. |
_________________________________________________ [Sep 14,2004 2:27pm - the_taste_of_cigarettes ""] god they are quickly becoming my favorite band, and I've only heard 2 actual note-filled songs by them ever. |
______________________________ [Sep 14,2004 3:03pm - blue ""] theyre cool, but a wee bit too much converge worship for me. |
______________________________ [Sep 14,2004 3:12pm - nick ""] one time i said the singer sounded like a pteradactyl in thier first cd and he was genuinly offended. thier older stuff reminds me of advocate. who actually sound like converge. so never mind. |
_________________________________________________ [Sep 14,2004 4:33pm - the_taste_of_cigarettes ""] i wish converge would do crazy shit on stage again, instead of standing around and jake talking like Rick Ta Life between songs. |
___________________________________________________ [Sep 14,2004 6:30pm - attendmyrequiem in maine ""] they once got booted from hellfest because their vocalist was putting the mic down his pants. |
____________________________________________________ [Sep 14,2004 6:31pm - attendmyrequiem at school ""] and it's real cool that while trying to type at school i wrote in maine. |
______________________________________ [Sep 14,2004 10:25pm - RustedAngel ""] i don't like them at all, i've seen them a couple of times... and i was bored each time. |
