And So I Watch You From Afar - "Set Guitars to Kill" - SXSW 2010 Showcasing Artist

[MrHobbitindenial]

I don't think I would get bored of this song if it was stuck in my head for the rest of my life. I might get a broken neck from the headbanging though....

[JazzmastersFTW]

Saw them today at RDS. Fucking epic! No good mosh pit gets stopped by security.

[TheRaveNRolla]

awesome song, but this isn't live, it's their studio recording.

[Persian1609]

@TheRaveNRolla ok captain obvious :D

[wearecorsairs]

@efcdk92 you have absolutely no idea what SXSW is do you lol. cu@SXSW 2012 dudes!

[bluflashinglights]

This song is fucking INSANE!

[Stuartyk18]

Saw these guys 2 years ago in Belfast

Best 8 quid i ever spent!

[sXe79]

EPIC!!!

[johnlederp]

fucking eargasm!

[Laineydn]

haven't actually used the audio from the live performance....lame...

[MythicShot]

This never gets old.....just gold

[TheDarkyouth28]

Yeah, I totally agree, these guys are KICK ASS!!!

They have an original sound and attitude and they really seem to connect with the crowd. A mate of mine was banging on about ASIWYFAF, He gave me there letters EP and I was instantly hooked. These guys ROCK. The Darkness are my number one band but these guys come at a close second or third.FUCK YEAH!!!

[INUTERO2010]

te vuela la peluca!!!! yeahh!!!!!!!

[Technorgasm]

this sets my soul on fire!!!

[clintsmoker]

that's a great performance. lame ass crowd. They deserve to have been around 20 years ago when people actually appreciated this and showed it. great stuff lads

[SilentBombr]

This is like the band MGMT wish they were lol

[lurycio]

@SilentBombr

Way better than MGMT could ever be, these guys shit on them

[SilentBombr]

@lurycio well I'm not going to lie they are better than many many bands I have heard, fucking incredible lol

[MissPAPILLON56]

♥ (:

[Michaelslash09]

what a show to have seen im proud to be able to say ive seen this band live

[criodain77]

ummmm, @patrickinurface, the Irish govt doesn't really affect ASIWYFA as they are from Belfast........

[hochitim]

It's good but it's basically "Can't Stop" by the Chilli Peppers.

[Michaelslash09]

@hochitim

not really no

[bladiblu123]

@hochitim i think some1 has to listen to cant stop again :)

[theavenuehouse]

going to see them right now in Bristol!

[NatureOfTheLabyrinth]

is it wrong that i actually feel guilty because the crowd are shit?

[efcdk92]

@NatureOfTheLabyrinth I have found while trailing through the youtube music universe that the american crowds seem to be the worst. Just an observation

[th3d3adp0et]

@efcdk92 I have to agree, in general they're very dead. Why this is I just dont know - and I dont mean to annoy anyone but jesus its just so blatantly true. Again, just in general...I've seen some insane American crowds too but you know its not all about flailing about like a fucking idiot either, its about appreciation.

[efcdk92]

@th3d3adp0et you look at a dead crowd and you look back at the band performing and they look abit gutted. And it's cringeworthy to watch. Just means that the band will be hesitent to sign up to that area/festival again due to the poor reception. Sad, really.

[MythicShot]

@efcdk92 I doubt that mate. SWXW is one of the biggest music industry showcase festivals out there. Most bands would kill to play it

[xylaf]

Enorme !

[THINLIZZYFANno1]

I drank with these guyss outsde the Olympia in Dublin before a Gogol Bordello gig last week :) then went in and Got fucking Blown away by them!

[TheFenderstrat77]

@THINLIZZYFANno1 gogol bordello fing rocks!!!!!!!!!!

[Leeko23Arsenal]

All evidence would point towards me disliking this band... but I love them!

[w0755359]

yah now kill me

[themanfromconnemara]

WOW!

[patrickinurface]

TELECASTER RAGE ! yeah. this is what we can do with a bullshit gov. disfunctional society, a police system of bullies and a bad reputation worldwide. im quite proud to be irish

[ARAGORN41]

ASIWYFA and Adebisi Shank are the best Irish band going atm.

[goobsterface]

fuckin awesome!

[TheNeonBlues]

Wish I didn't have a poor ear, would love to learn this. Can't find a tab anywhere.

[seanmarm]

@TheNeonBlues they tune to Drop C. the intro is just 3 hits on the 2nd fret. ;)

[gezrick]

Ha ha, why has no one realised how stupid men look in skinny jeans? watch them dance. they look like fools

[lurycio]

@gezrick

because they arent skinny jeans?

[lahbl]

Lmfao, look at all the mobiles at the start recording.

[BrainPie42]

It's be going to be a long time before the rocket juice in their instruments ever dry up. And there definitely is nt stun setting on those guitars.

Do you know the one thing they that few if any other math or post-rock bands have? FUCKING FUN!

[tatwspumunud]

this is the bollocks!!!!!!!!!

[lurycio]

@tatwspumunud

you crazy fool

[tatwspumunud]

@lurycio why thank you young pup x

[9376790]

If I could make love to this music I would!

[fleemandearhole]

hahaha!! @3:10.... WOOOOOH!

[miekjerules]

Saw them yesterday, really awesome live. Took a picture together with the guitar player:)

[emsixteen87]

@miekjerules .. that one guitar player they have? heh

[illistas]

This is insane live. Saw them last week.

[stephenouve]

PUT YOUR PHONES AWAY FOR GODS SAKES

[himrawkz]

[MrBeekzz]

Now this is eargasmic..... Damn

[deracki]

@MrBeekzz absolutely right!

[raspberryoverload]

W-O-W

[Dervthings]

[inimicalODDITY]

Very interesting...

[odingr]

does anybody know the effects the guitarist used? i play guitar and im in a band so i want to know. thnx

[JMcG92]

@odingr I can definitely hear lots of Digitech Whammy and fuzz.

[WhammyDown]

@odingr Whammy Pedal, delay pedal, ebow for the intro.

[d0manat0r]

I Saw them live at Heiniken Music Hall in The Netherlands and in Ireland at indiependence festival and Realy looking forward to see them meny times more!!!!!!!

GO YOU ASIWYFA !

[lucyyfinal]

wow i need to see these live

[lawlesssoul]

The one person that didn't like this needs their head checked!

[Betermin]

This music is fantastic. I swear, the only bands that are still together and worth following are in the UK.

[Uzzie101]

@Betermin Bollocks! Haven't you heard of Fingersmith or Violent Soho? Great bands.

[Hodenhannes]

They deserve a less apathetic audience. This song is among the best music ever written IMO.

[sandhopper]

@Hodenhannes true, though this is like texas right? Back here in Belfast its a full scale riot, things get appropriately overly brutal at an asiwyfa gig! :)

[0MattOnBass0]

this is fucking brilliant

[eimead]

this gives my ears a hard-on

[xsangrexrazax]

It's amazing how these guys can be so energetic with that kind of crowd.

[delanorocks]

@xsangrexrazax fuckin knobs arent they

[robzombie676]

epic.

[Doglike85]

They peformed a while back at the place I'm a bartender at. Merleyn in Nijmegen, Holland. Really cool guys and an AWESOME performance! I do have to say that this track is my favourite, but the rest are cool as well. I forgot to serve drinks because I was so hypnotized by their songs ;)

[vodski]

Christ on a bike!!

[atreju80]

just saw them some hours ago, awesome live performance they did

[Fyreoxamnya]

egy jó rokk

[jam09ism]

its good being Irish......

[dannyeighteen]

@jam09ism there from belfast rite?

[InnerCities]

@dannyeighteen Kind of. They're all from Portrush originally and then moved to Belfast to play gigs and work etc.

[Alkalinetime]

@itsDeadst4r . no... they are from Portstweart and Portrush mate. Not Derry

[Seagerash]

the video becomes hard to watch at times and de-rails listening to the song. epic band with an epic sound and an epic attitude to their live act!

[Emberland]

Saw them last night at Train in Århus. Fucking mega.

[caleb9999999]

true to that.

but gotta see them again somewhere else - train has rather shitty acoustics.

[Calalum9292]

This band are fucking special.

[panquedantalion]

[MichaelTheSilageMan]

[SocksInPanic]

I really like their style. Great Songwriting.

[machinehead2324]

Seeing them tonight in newcastle!

[Rushers1]

Best band of 2009. Awesome

[carlosardinio1990]

Seeing them on Friday in Andrew's Lane, Dublin

[CityOfDoors]

ASIWYFA are going to destroy SXSW, wish I could be there!

[FinlandsThunder]

I think the opening is really cool. the shot with all the cellphones.

these guys are so active on stage! love it!

[Educalifa]

Fantastic.

[RMJSpacker]

wow.

[cooltigue]

If you could bottle this stuff i would be an alcoholic...
