Ummm.... Honestly, if you get the chance to see these guys live... DO IT. They are AMAZING. Everything they do during their concert just blows you away... It's awesome.
Oh my good god... this is unreal. Mutemath, and this song in particular, sounds like a cross between Battles and Clinic. Exit/In's in Nashville right? What an ill set
drums through a looping station.. plus sequencers (kind of like a drum machine, paul is running it through pedals and stuff with delays and echos and distortion
and also the fact that darren is a BEAST of a drummer. :D
I wouldnt be surprised (amazingmato) they are wicked creative.. when i saw them live i didnt even want to blink or miss any of the crazy awsome stuff they did
They took an old Atari console, added a touch pad and did a little electrical tweaking. It's called circuit bending. Many underground electro musicians are into it and if i'm not mistaken, you can even find websites that sell contraptions like that pre-made!
Paul is my hero, I love seeing this band live. They are absolutely crazy on stage. They definitely put any other show to shame after going to a mutemath concert.
I love Mute Math! You should see the live David Letterman performance here on YouTube of "Typical", then "Chaos", and then their newest video, "Spotlight"! I just want to swim in their music, man! And the drummer's name is Darren King, btw! Lead singer: Paul Meany. Guitar: Greg Hill. Bass: Roy Mitchell-Cárdenas.
Love the drummer in this band and the style/ type of keyboard ( Hammond ) like Ray Manzarek used in the Doors. I like the trend now that some Indie bands are using with old instruments and fusing old/new sounds. Very cool!
Oh my gosh their drummer. Such phat beats. Anyone that likes Mute Math (especially this song) should check out STS9. Best live show you will ever see.
setanta, the person who introduced this band to me described them as "trying to be radiohead". which is funny because after hearing these guys, I sort of describe radiohead as "failing to be mutemath"
Dude, I thought they were another Radiohead imitation at first. But this is better. I love the way this guy runs around the stage using all these weird toys.
He's playing a instrument that I invented called the AxeSynth. The band nick named it "The Atari" because when it needed repair I replaced the original chip with the 76477 chip, which was used in the original Atari Space Invader's arcade game back in the late 1970's and early 1980's.
I love that thew crowed is standing still. It's because they're blown away. I was shocked at how amazing they were when I saw them too. I almost shit my pants. They are kings!
