Black Dice>Yellow Swans>Hair Police>Wolf Eyes>Lightning Bolt

Onani Nic · 05.01.2006, 08:54 AM

From what i've heard Black Dice were more rad when they sounded like Void.

Wolf Eyes rule
Yellow Swans rule but in a different way
Hair Police don't do it for me.

I get to see Wolf Eyes three times in under two months!!!!!!!!!!!!

I saw Yellow Swans last year and they were amazing. Pick up Psychic Secession, reissued on Load records if you have the chance.

so i'm not the only one who thinks that?

i just got back into wolf eyes, i burned burned mind for a friend how has heard zero noise and heard it again, and remembered it's the first noise album i got into (not counting lightning bolt because lightning bolt are a phenomenon on their own). aaron dilloway solo is fantastic, also.

yellow swans are great, but on their records, like bringing the neon war home. their stuff like their split with gang wizard is crap.

hair police are pretty awesome, i love them, they can do noise in so many different ways, from short and harsh to long and drony. i love them

i saw the wolf eyes live. that was cool. i was really glad i brought ear plugs. they put on a good show considering how much they acted like they didn't want to be there:

this is a picture:

they did some burned mind fist-pumpers and some cool jams involving amplified chains in metal pipes and beating the shit out of their gongs. i was bummed my band didn't end up getting to play, but i got in for free anyway...

oh, and it was the first show they played after dilloway's mace accident...

whorefrost · 05.01.2006, 06:15 PM

as much as i also dig black dice from beaches and canyons onwards, i have to agree their early shit is completely gnarly/hard to beat...

Toilet & Bowels · 05.04.2006, 04:14 PM

yellow swans are one of the boringest live bands you'll ever see. wolf eyes are one of the best.

wolf eyes will play here in helsinki in april, COOL!!!!!!!!!!111

Glice · 02.20.2007, 05:05 PM

I feel very old when people talk about Wolf Eyes. I really do not hear what there is to get excited about. I thought their set at ATP was the least interesting (but amusingly so, thanks to the incredibly angry barstaff) thing I saw all weekend. It's not like in my day, I tell you.

jon boy · 02.20.2007, 05:08 PM

they were great at atp i really liked them. glices comments and the security guards faces where fun also.

& who leaked Burned Mind?...oh yeah, that was (old board) me tee hee.

CHOUT · 02.21.2007, 05:57 AM

Played a show tonight...

Iain · 02.21.2007, 08:26 AM

Their pre Beaches stuff is basically really noisy hardcore type stuff from what I remember. Maybe it was just a 7" or two they did. Was Cold Hands quite noisy, I think I heard it but I can't remember.

As for Wolf Eyes, it's hard to get super, super excited about them but I like some of the stuff that has a real sense of creeping dread which I doubt they'll play when I see them. I wasn't especially excited by their ATP set, it was quite good. Looking forward to seeing them in a smaller venue in April but not looking forward to having to see Consumer Electronics again. (actually, I'm sort of keen to see if he's as shit as I remember)

whorefrost · 02.21.2007, 09:05 AM

The Black Dice Troubleman EP is some of the best atonal hardcore I've ever heard. Beaches and Canyons is cool as well but on a completely other vibe. Black Dice have become progressively less interesting to me since then.

Consumer Electronics seems to pop up quite often as support. I've seen him be utter shite, and seen him be good. As is often the case with noise, it's difficult to know if it's down to my mood or how good the people making the noise are.

Iain · 02.21.2007, 04:50 PM

True, but I'm finding it hard to imagine a situation or or mood where his stuff wouldn't fuck me off quite a lot. It was the thinnest, most tedious harsh digital noise with his incoherent shouting over the top. It just seemed so...silly, and not in an entertaining way. I know those power electronics dudes aren't supposed to be taken seriously but everything they do is so po-faced and earnest...yeah, yeah it's supposed to be 'transgressive' I know, but it all seems so... shit to me.

Glice · 02.21.2007, 05:03 PM

I like the way you're arguing with a fictional staunch industrialist puritan in your above post. Personally, rather than follow those 'trangressive' lines, I tend to just ignore most noise. If it happens in front of me, fine, but if it doesn't, also fine. Zen apathy and noise is the title of my new book.

Iain · 02.21.2007, 06:05 PM

Well, I know you're not the fictional staunch industrialist puritan that I started the imaginary argument with...I just had some things floating around in my mind...the sort of things people say to defend Power Electronics. Something about the whole thing turns me off....totally willing to listen to stuff and judge on a band by band/song by song basis but Consumer Electronics were shit.
