The opening track to my favouritealbum of all time 'Calenture'. Go buy it. It's traly wonderous and beautiful.
Dave - R.I.P. -Burried Very Deeply in Love and Admiration for all the outstanding songs. Also for the kindeness shown to Martina and i, when you brought two Irish travelling fansbackstage with you for a few beers, after a 'Red Ponies' show in Sydney, during 97. Never Forgotten.
A great live version of a great song---I remember this show--you think Marty looked young here---check out Andrew Denton. The Triffids were a very good band that don't always get the respect that they are due. Thanks for putting this one on you tube---really enjoyed it.
Jesus, Marty looks young - has he ever owned any other bass?! Great clip, a reminder of what David could do in a live situation. One of the most underrated front-men of all time, fronting one of the tightest bands ever.
I love David's voice. Calenture is an excellent album. Come to think of it..... Does anyone else think that Tom Verlaine and David McComb sound very similar?

Wow what a voice, what a band they could do no wrong. Not many bands incorporate the styles the used which is a shame

This is my latest funeral song (pardon the pun) It was going to be 'A Short Note' Matt Finish but I have just re-discovered this piece of genius.

Maybe you watched too much...Television.(kidding!)
Never made a comparison between Tom and David. People influence each other, that' s for sure. Calenture is a master peace, so was "Marquee Moon".

I do love both of 'em... but comparing yelping non-singer Verlaine to divine voice McComb? No fair...

Buffsfilms, that's kind of how I see it too. In very different ways they both scratch at the soul.

Fantastic! Thanks. God obviously kept The Triffids in one pocket and The Go-Betweens in the other!
