I realize I'm a little late on the scene.. Finally picked this up and listened to it for the first time the other day. It's the best thing I've ever heard Godspeed do and the best thing I've heard all year. Pitchfork truly is a motherfucker - They've got a few prongs poking in the wrong place. |

please look my muscle dancing :D i wonder if you will be able to catch all members of GODSPEED... i have never seen their figure before. |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
i'm too excited about seeing them....first in philly then DC!!! on the next night! woo hoo |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i'm also in the small party of those who think it's the best thing they've done. i blame the production. |
||||||||
|

|
|
Oooooh yeah, Motherfucker-Redeemer is my fave Godspeed track. |
||||||||
|

Be sure to get right up front. I saw them in Bradford earlier in the year, the venue was a theatre and they were totally awesome. They let the crowd get right up to the stage, no barriers, no security. I was literally within touching distance of Efrim (swiped his setlist!) Some of them hang around and talk to you afterwards too :) |

don't like uxo half as much as srfnzk, lvsfcath or f#a#oo.... that pitchfork review was in parts spot on i thought. Perhaps i can't get into it as easy cos it's quite a departure from the previous records... love the last two minutes of the last track though. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah MF-redeemer is quite cool shit. I didn't used to like the record, but i was talking about it with somebody, and i like it lots more now. |
||||||||

I think that's a continuation of their previous work - nothing new ; nothing bad. I just find a little boring the way they build their songs with the same architecture over and over - for me it's quite like straight ambiant music since I only pay attention to random bits of the songs. |

i still don't have it... |

yo danbrusca i saw godspeed at bradford too...cool venue, nice acoustics in ther3 and stuff. was brilliant when they played lysflath track 1 first, love that first 6/7 minutes. remembered them playing rocket falls there as well...fucking amazing the way that builds at first (may fave on yanqui). theyre going to announce some european dates soonish i think..hope they come up north again in the uk. fingers x'd. the shout of 'hotel california' before the encore didn't go down very well did it! that would have been the strangest thing to see though! |

best gig ive been to...not been to too many, being only young an all...even better than super furries and they were well good..the techno thing for 20mins at the end ruled there. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
The setlist was: Gathering Storm Dead Metheny Tazer Floyd (now known as Rocket Falls On Rocket Falls) World Police & Friendly Fire Motherfucker=Redeemer Blaize Bailey Finnegan The Third (BBF3) |

just wondering, how long do they usually play for, and do they use samples (like in bbf3)? im seeing em in march, never seen em before, how big is the crowd usually? i hope theyres not a lot of smoke, cant stand all the smoke in these small venues. |
||||||||
|

|
|
oh and yanqui uxo is excellent, i still like slow riot best though, then its kind of all the other albums tied for a close second. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
didnt godspeed used to only play in churches? they should only do that. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah they used the vocal thing from bbf3 when they played bradford. i think they played chris morris' 'bushwhacked' speech ahem rearrangement at some gigs fairly recently. there were quite a number of people there. it wasn't sold out or anything though. cheers for the setlist dan. enjoy the show machine, i hope they play here nxt year. |
||||||||

yanqui is their most accomplished album to date imo. i met a guy who used to open for them, he said they gave the best shows he's seen. anyone can point me out to some tour dates? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i heard they played some George W Bush speeches live and distorted them out of recognition |
||||||||
|
|

i truly love the new album. '...antennas to heaven' is also just as excellent but yanqui is very different to anything they've ever done. some people complain how the structures are all the same but hey! - they are not! a lot of different moods and atmospheres, i love it. i've also got some memories and images tied up with the record which makes it even more special to me. |

i don't think they're the autographing type.. they're pretty anti-stardom (and definitely anti-materalism), but who knows? |
||||||||

tee hee *watch me* =D |

I've got Norsola's email address :P |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
how'd you do that? i got efrim's 2 email addresses; i emailed him once in the spring and he never responded. i think he just responds to political emails, not anything about his band. what a dork. |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
