Autolux - Blanket

[ethericloopz]

Proper usage of a Gibson guitar.

Yeah, and badass also :]

[TheJohdu]

freshest album of the last fuggin decade

[phantomkitty1234]

i heard this on kexp and liked it :) glad i wrote it down

[meowlmoon]

badass is right (x3)

[darkpulse462]

All three members sing on the albums.  They are terrific as far as I'm concerned.

[seasonedass]

If you like these guys, you should check out The Swirlies.

[granola4thahighrolla]

these guys could've been the best band in the world if they just had a different singer.

[orlandm999]

what?????? the singer is subliminal outstanding!!!!

[granola4thahighrolla]

@orlandm999 nah man - hyperliminally annoying

[orlandm999]

@granola4thahighrolla sure?i think hes a good singer for indy rock and roll music

[tyrannized]

anyone know how old is Greg Edwards

[penandwhiteout]

@tyrannized hes probably in his fourties

[ThisIsBadEducation]

this is such a great live version of this song. eugene's bass sounds particularly good.

[Dattutsoweh]

@ThisIsBadEducation:

Thats not Eugene it's Timmy

[Anjiruu]

I'm not sure if they are still using this but try tuning standard a half step down. Since it's was standard tuning back in greg's former band Failure.

[minusmatt]

She's a great drummer. They all play really great together

[digitaldown]

i love them. i just wish they'd get that next album out already. it's been over 5 years

[jam09ism]

She is one of the only creative drummers around. And she is hot

[haisevaewok]

@jam09ism

Hot.. low standards for sure.

[jam09ism]

@haisevaewok

What, is Greg more your type? You little gimp?

[homfencing]

@jam09ism You should've seen her when she was 20 and in the snare line of the Blue Devils Drum & Bugle Corps (I was in the horn line that year)...cute girl (who could drum the lugs off a snare), 80s, and Dolphin shorts....all I'm sayin'!

[schoonmakerge]

just saw these guys in omaha and they absolutely ripped the place apart...easily one of the best shows I had been to in recent months.... all three of them in unison...I really can say karla is one of the sweetest drummers to watch live... she and the guys have so much intensity its phenomenal....

[DFSrlz]

1:57 is friggin amazing!! I love it when bands just create noise and it sounds great!!

[codyfsw]

Damn straight this is some good shit... best band by far ive stumbled across in a while!

[grannynappster]

damn....this is good shit

[ChaoteMagick]

Aright I love autolux but how the hell do you play those chords? someone HELP ME. what are the chords they play for the chorus?? I think the first chord he rides on is 79x10xx, but I cant figure out what the next chord is (he plays it for a split second before the high-pitched noise). then he goes back to the 79x10 chord, and then hits an E powerchord. but goddamn if I cant figure out that one chord.

[chadwickthezulu]

Autolux does almost all their songs in E-flat tuning. During the chorus the guitarist plays an E the first measure (with a B-flat in the bass) then in the second a D-flat ane F (with an E-flat in the bass) and then the high pitched noise is bending between a high F and G-flat.

[charlesweiselberg]

My friend knows how to play it. I forget right now but he moves to a dim. 5th which is probably what is tripping you up.

[panther1234598765]

umm... no energy they SUCK

[iloveferminA]

such an underrated band

[whokilledoisinwoods1]

such an underrated band

[ericambrosecoon]

[punk91]

[mdeboard1]

Words... words... words.

[Teskus]

I'm in the same boat as LakeOFire777... Just 5 months down the road it seems.

[sunkistandsudafed]

Sonic Youth blows.

[Spookster]

You blow.

[razorbladethorax]

How awesome is Carla??? Freaking traditional grip and all!

[renatatemis]

[Zaknrfamaa]

[LakeOFire777]

i love the drumming in their songs, i literally just discovered them about a minute and a half ago and am already very intrigued

[shami333]

Love this band! Such a unique sound. Amazing song.

[gracebundy]

They really rock but you must check Sonic Youth and My Bloody Valentine, for example, because their sound is not "unique".

[numchucksteve]

so? like those bands weren't also influenced by bands before them, like the velvet underground and others?

[dbrigs]

Release that record! Quality clip right here...

[GreatRussianHellfire]

:] they sound the same live as they do on their recordings.

xD woo! check out their myspace page, and look at the Sounds Like section... i recorded that!

[actsnoblemartin]

Greg is awesome, and my musical hero :), he is the paul mccartney or 90's alternative rock and rock in general.

[merrygoroundmind7]

carla azar is a god

[RobertofNazareth]

Im a NIN fan and I didnt see them. But just hearing of them caused me to look them up. Theyre awesome.

[senselessnonsense]

the guitar work is effing ill!! sweet friggin song!

[NikkaStacia]

This is an amazing performance, Carla Azar - you are my hero!

[KnoaWyls]

These are great. Love them lots! Seen 'em like 4 times so far.

[parabol]

I love greg's guitar sound.

reminds me of failure . . . sorta.

[KidA0001]

one of those guys were actually in Failure

[cusical]

Greg Edwards was in Failure. He played bass. However, he wrote plenty of guitar and bass for Failure.

[pinkllama19]

hes my cousin

[fiftynineviolets]

Sounds like Elliott Smith with a more Grungier sound. Cool, I think...

[omniculex]

Yeah, he and Eugene have the same wispy vocal style.

[parabol]

I saw these guys open for NIN and Qotsa, they rocked and became one my favorite bands, I can't say that other nin fans digged them so much. . . .

[high5enmfer]

I saw that show when they came to St. Louis and they blew me away. They went nuts and were making some insane noises for about 2 min straight in the middle of one of their songs.

[xfilesweirdo]

Cool.  Thanx man
