love the time when you hear a music to make you better to go out and not the opposite. today you listen music to put a bullet in your head, and if is not so you want to, because music today is shit.
this is one of the songs by these guys that changed a lot for me back in the days. Just to support them I bought some stuff from their store... but i really wish I could've done more for them or even seen them preform... their music is just sensually awesome :) If I could I'd personally thank all the live artists... in my worst moments in the military (although I'm a pacifist now) this music made me feel alive and wanting to do right, so it's a few years late but thanks
Haven't heard this in many many years & it just knocked my head off. Such a powerful album, I was 11 when I bought it after seeing Selling the Drama on Noisy Mothers in 94 & in my teen years sort of forgot about it. Thanks for the upload.
This is probably one of the best albums ever. It hasn't left my CD deck since I purchased it a few weeks ago. It's rare to find a CD where every song is catchy and amazing. Can anyone suggest other great 90's rock/alt rock albums to check out? Preferably something that can match how great Throwing Copper with every track being nothing less of awesome. Thanks!
Soundgarden's 'Superunknown' from 1994, same year as this album has always been considered a masterpiece of the grunge era, you might like especially since Soundgarden tends to mix in heavy metal to their grunge sound. There's a reason why the 'Superunknown' album was rated 5 stars from most all reviews and on the top 500 albums of all time.
Their previous albums are great as well, but maybe not as fitting for everyone unless they're into grunge.
@mixtape86 Its hard to beat this album for 90's rock,but also check out Live's first album ''Mental Jewelry'' and their third album ''Secret Samadhi'' are also good.
@swiminjugernaut He didn't even start his career until 2004. Live was HUGE in the 90's so except for the whole a decade earlier thing, yeah you're totally right. Freakin R-tard.
@swiminjugernaut hey thats just funny, the fact that you can compare the two :( Chris Daughtry has a good voice but not half the soul and heart this band does. pfft, Wannabe.
God forbid you put "Iris Live" while searching for this band. All this crap music comes up. I can't believe it was difficult finding this song. Beautiful song and amazing band.
In my opinion, arguably one of the best 5 albums of the '90's. Talk about picking the shit "up", and laying it right back "down"...gripping, muscular, electric gospel.
@IDCFFSGTFO I just read you comment and checked wikipedia....he was asking for a $100k "singer bonus" and he stold the rights to the songs publishings. What a jerk off, my opinion of him just went from top shelf to file 13.
@IDCFFSGTFO Actually, they're not looking for a new frontman. They started a new band together along with Candlebox singer Kevin Martin and Candlbox guitarist Sean Hennesy called The Gracious Few. They're really good as well.
This album stands as one of the very few that I think eclipses any one single on it. This is a fantastic work, it's too bad it seems they had no creative energy left after.
I think he did have a kid which is life altering experience in a good way of course. I think the band matured and the softer stuff reflects where they are now. Times change things evolve and priority can change and you need to adapt. I met them a few times there all very nice and genuine down to earth.
Live is such an amazing band. I saw them live over 30 times there even more amazing live. The energy and they know how to put on a good show. I could tell they enjoyed what they were doing it was not another pay check. I know some don't like the new stuff too soft. But they been around quite sometime. They will eventually start showing there age. You cant expect hits all the time. I feel there 90s stuff reflects what type of place they were in at the time when recording there albums and there
my dad bought this album and i really liked the album cover, so i had to listen to it to see if the music is better then the album cover, both of them did.
Most have heard of "Live" through a song or 2 on the radio. If you REALLY appreciate what they've done through what you've heard already, you should seek out an obscure album from long ago called "Mental Jewelry". The sound quality sux but the passion is prevalent in spades. Ten Thousand Years, baby!
@RandyOLeary I'm not sure how obscure Mental Jewelry is but I agree that it's the best of Live. A young band on fire, spiritual beauty, way ahead of their time, absolutely brilliant. I listen to it still and it holds up great. I can't tell you how many people I turned on to it after Throwing Copper came out. Ten Thousand Years, baby, for sure!
I had almost forgotten this album too & what a shame. Aside from one of the LOUDEST concerts in my life (opening for Pearl Jam &...almost... blew them away) one of the best. Looks like they're history for now but damn, too bad.
Sh*t...I forgot what a great album this is. Now, years later...a little older, a little wiser...the lyrics that always evaded me on some level have become much clearer. Fantastic.
This is one of the most awesome songs by +live+. I wish they had played it more often live. They dont even have a music video for this song. its sooooo sad. I wish i had seen them perform live.
This is one of the better bands under the label "Post-Grunge". At least everything before The Distance To Here. Throwing Copper is my favorite album that I own, period.
you should find the acoustic version of it. Ed and Chad performed a 6-8 song 2-man acoustic set as a promotional thing for throwing copper. Iris was in the set.
I found it back in the napster days of the internet.
I witnessed Ed Vedder snort something, then chug a rolling rock on the side lines of a concert stage in Knoxville. Being in the audience, looking through binoculars, It was cool. When he said he could have had a better time in the hotel, things went south... The band turned things around. So when you speak of Pearl Jam, go beyond Ed... Thanks...
Musicianship makes me listen to Pearl Jam. I can perfectly understand why some people don't like Eddie Vedder, but Stone Gossard and Mike McCready make one mean guitar tandem.
listen to even flow -_- that was a good song. hell i like megadeth. the singer doesnt have a singing voice, but it just fits the band. and if anyone likes rap (i dont) NONE of them can sing, thats why it is called retards attempting poetry after all, yet people like it
Damn, a lot of hate in these comments. Yeah, this album was definitely their masterpiece. But you only get one masterpiece in your career, and if it happens to come early, then by necessity everything that come after it doesn't compare. I enjoy most of what Live has put out since Throwing Copper, even the roundly-hated V. It's not as good, sure, but it's still decent on its own.
I play guitar and I'm def. a 90's child. I love Alice In Chains- amoung alot of other great bands from that era- I guess when I said best album of the 90's I meant this album holds the best memories FROM the 90's for me. Takes me back to a simpler time. Plus it's a pretty consistant album (unlike all their later work) when it got to the point of "dolphin's cry" I pretty much lost all respect for them lol. I'm def. not putting them in the same catagory as Lane Staley and Jerry Cantrell.
This music was bad ass. The whole album is fucking straight out wicked. Amazing how a band that made such great music turned to shit and started making god awful crap. Too bad, it really is.
I'd almost completely agree. V sucked, then Birds of Pray was decent. I only like a couple of songs off of the newest one, particularly "Sofia." Did they get bad for you after Throwing Copper?
in the 90,s when you didnt have the i pods with 1000,s of songs to choose from (trowing copper} was my fav cd to listen to in my discman the entire cd is very adictive i remember buying it just for one song later that one song became my least favorite among the other songs really one of the bands that made great music in the 90,s
as good as secret samadhi is, it cannot deliver all the songs throwing copper delivered. samadhi has lakini's juice, rattlesnake, and 1 or two others. throwing copper has almost every song as a hit, because it definitely was their best
I agree. I love every song from Throwing Copper. I actually got to see them in around 1995 and they kicked ass. It was one of the earliest concerts I ever attended, and I still remember it perfectly.
Seriously - this song kicks some righteous ass!!!

Live has some cheesy / corny lyrics that make me cringe because they're so awkward on Secret Samahdi

I know exactly what you mean, where was the producer when some of those verses happened

Stamid
they got too commercial - they were in a class of their own at one time. the quality of [alternative] music overall had degraded by then anyways..

The best album of live is secret samadhi
juam37 3 years ago
as good as secret samadhi is, it cannot deliver all the songs throwing copper delivered. samadhi has lakini's juice, rattlesnake, and 1 or two others. throwing copper has almost every song as a hit, because it definitely was their best

Live kicks ass, especially live. It's hard to find their stuff online using the criteria "live" though. Throwing Copper is iconic IMO.

I agree. I love every song from Throwing Copper. I actually got to see them in around 1995 and they kicked ass. It was one of the earliest concerts I ever attended, and I still remember it perfectly.

I love 90s alternative.....it has so much more soul than 'modern music'.

Classic song, from a much better era.
Honestly what the hell happened to these guys, the last decent song I heard from them was off of Secret Samadhi...
