Pile

"The Opera House" turned into what I feel was "The Bark and Below It" which turned into sort of this like laughing brawl and though half of absolutely everyone was in this pile of limbs the music kept coming. The energy these dozen of musicians pumped out was absolutely nothing short of deeply inspiring. They played for 4 straight hours, rotating on and off stage seemingly at random, plowing by way of song immediately after song off so many albums by so numerous bands. Amongst the blaring brass, half dozen guitars, dual drum kits, quite a few keyboards, saws, melodicas, clarinets, sousaphones, and a ’50s cathode ray tube that sang a song amplification wasn’t even necessary.
With each and every Elephant 6 recording (at least the ’90s albums) there’s this pervasive fuzz on totally everything. Guitars? Fuzz. Vocals? Fuzz. Singing saw? FUZZ. You see them reside and how intense they play and clearly really like to play and the fuzz tends to make intuitive sense. These songs blast themselves out, suitable levels be damned and that record is going to show it.
Easily 1 of the very best shows of my life.
