Archers of Loaf 10-22-98 LIVE Iowa City 12/13

[veganshits]

can't wait to see this live.

[Capburger]

This is simply the best American rock band of the last 15 years.

[cowboyupinblue]

holy fucking shit i wish more music was like this

[donniebobb]

OMG...I WAS THERE!!! Had no idea this would come up, was looking for the stereolab show I saw there @ Gabe's Oasis

[tigercub888]

i know. go back and listen to something like "let the loser melt." the drums and guitar play off each other personally. plus, the drummer was such a cutie.

[VimmyxSDxNothing]

Listen to the way the percussion meshes so perfectly with the guitar, as if they're the same instrument.

[TehZombie]

I think if I could have attended any show in the history of music, it would have been this one.

[ceeelow]

What kind of guitar is Bachmann playing?

Looks like a Fender neck with a Gibson L6 Body. (?)

[ShabadooWilkins]

Antics? That's baby stuff. Be glad you weren't standing next to me in the crowd at the shows back then. Those "antics" would have granted you a restructured nasal cavity.

[nolanpotter1]

They're incredible but the bassists antics bother me so much.

[bigman1225]

I don't think this video brings out the true beauty of archers of loaf. Wheres their melodic stuff?

[WordsAmpersand]

Despite the fact that you can barely hear it, "Audiowhore" and "Lowest Part Is Free!" are two of the band's most hummable tracks.

[twoifbysearec]

This is one of the worst sounding but never the less beautiful videos I've ever seen! Thank you for posting this.

[cinnamonkejaro]

was just telling hubby how bady I wish we could see them again live.

[sinta12lo]

nice

[buzzkill77]

nostalgic.

[jimmivelvet]

What more can one say about them. Geez. Rocks ass.

[dustrabbit]

Supremely excellent. Thank you for capturing this.

[johnny8ball]

I had forgotten how the hair on the back of my neck stands up right when "Audiowhore" kicks into the rocking part when they do this live. These guys ruled.

[Kepler1234]

been watching straight through, still hoping for ............ 'i lost my shewing gum'

This has to be one of the best sets I've ever seen on youtube.

This band was so incredible.

[ceeelow]

Brilliant

[yardang]

best. encore. ever.

[jpietron]

Gotta love the commitment of these guys to the songs - even ones from way back in their catalog - just a month before they called it quits for good. I think they ended it for the right reasons - it's as if they felt if they couldn't give this much to their continuing efforts, they didn't want to do it at all. But I'm a very biased, rabid fan...

[archerofloaf]

this song slays

[trentacid008]

bad-ass.
