Live Concerts

[CosmoSix5]

Live and STP in Cuyahoga Falls(Cleveland) with friends. Live was my lovely wifes and my first show a loong time ago!

The KGLW run was amazing wire to wire. No one else is like them. Individual talent is off the charts and the egos mesh perfectly for a sum greater than the incredible parts.

They started playing the riff from Hell during Hot Water. It starts about 2:48:

This riff was picked off of a Herbie Mann tune called Uskudar from his album Impressions of the Middle East:

That’s the kind of stuff you get with them. Just crazy influences.

Man, I love these little flourishes.. hearing the baseline to Bitter Boogie during Daily Blues at the Red Rocks show really put a smile on my face, Paper Mache Dream Balloon was the record that got me hooked.

Never heard of KGLW. Thank you all for sharing. Always looking for a new listening experience.

First Listen:

[Mizmazzle]

@TinMan that’s a great album. It’s such a deep dive into their catalogue.

[Mizmazzle]

Last night I Went to see another band I’ve loved for a long time but hadn’t seen before…

They absolutely delivered!!!

Osees!!

[Tago Mago]

The Ocean absolutely killed it last night. Jurassic/Cretaceous as final encore, what a song. Not from yesterday, but you get the picture:

[TENDREL]

Oh heck yeah, we going deep down the Gizz hole. Also seriously love the Osees which have a similar vibe in some ways to Gizz. John Dwyer is a machine, he's put out so much music.

My personal Gizz road map was getting into the microtonal stuff on Flying Microtonal Banana, then their thrash album Into the Rats Nest totally blew me away and got me obsessed. Right now my favorites are the metal album PDA, and the new album Flight b741. Been listening to Float Along Fill Your Lungs lately too. It's almost like you can pick your favorite genre and they probably have an album in that style, then go from there.

@Mizmazzle that's awesome, hoping I get some of the techno table at the shows we go to. The Silver Cord songs live are great.

[Mizmazzle]

@TENDREL yeah man. Osees must have read my mind because they played all my favorite songs. Dwyer, as you mentioned, is so freaking prolific…I was so stoked to hear so many from the Orc album and Smote Reverser, Mutilator Defeated at Last…juts so many incredible songs. My ears have never rang in quite the way they did leaving that show. Haha. Like crickets going off in my brain.

Infest the Rats Nest is my fave Gizz album by far. They nail thrash so perfectly.

[Matt]

Gizz hole, huh? Were sticking with that?

[Matt]

PJ Harvey was incredible last night. I stopped taking pics at shows because I have an old ass iPhone and they’re always terrible.

[TENDREL]

@Mizmazzle damn that sounds awesome, need to see them. Still been listening to Intercepted Message a lot.

@Matt its a weird band/fanbase so it works

[GraemeE]

@Matt yes.
yes we are

[T4920]

Thanks to a heads up from @Mizmazzle just grabbed tickets for 3 nights of Gizz at an Ancient Amphitheatre in Bulgaria next June!

Plovdiv and the surrounding area looks so beautiful, I love spontaneous bookings like this haha ...

[Mizmazzle]

@T4920 sure hope we can make it happen too. Be so rad to catch up out there!

[alexxedge]

@CosmoSix5 dang. I didn’t know Live was still at it. I saw them back in ‘98 or ‘99 with Silverchair and The Offspring. Sick they are still playing.

[alexxedge]

@T4920 what an absolutely incredible venue.

[CosmoSix5]

@alexxedge only Ed K remains from the original line up. Rest of the band pulled an oasis and split. With him being the vocals they still sounded great as usual.

Ha, I did the same. Just for the 8th. You‘re doing all three shows?

[T4920]

@endo yes sir, I'd do seven if they played 'em..

Have you been to Bulgaria before? I'm flying into Sofia on the 7th and heading straight to Plovdiv. Will go back to Sofia for two nights after the shows!
