Patrick Watson @ union chapel was obscenely good. Couldn't think straight afterwards, forgot how to use the underground, missed my train, and my girlfriend lost her ticket. That's the power of good music in the right hands!!
that was pretty solid, very unique. but i must say, the last minute of the song was terrible at best. i know live performances usually include solos, but that was no where near "music" even. just end the song the way it's supposed to be played and dont go try to be a hero
it's not their botching the ending, they're intentionally beating the shit out of it. Music doesn't always have to be melodic or even sound good to do the trick
i can definatly respect your opinoin and can't help but partly agree -but- its not supposed to sound good, obviously, they're just having fun and being unique it sets them apart which is more important than ending like any other band would
its called deconstruction....think of 21st century schizoid ma, etc. king crimson used that technique a lot. patrick watson are great because they have so many diverse elements...classic rock piano ballads (floyd, supertramp,etc.) , prog, jazz, soul, indie rock, ambient, chopin and satie, etc....they are very talented musicians.
pas assez ambitieux.

i love it. it manages to turn the song into something entirely different while not simply descending into noise. good word, patrick et al.

i actually agree with the modest mouse thing. not his voice, but the song in general. 1:06 is so modest mouse.

every artists is their own artist stop trying to compare him to what he sounds like. tbh i think he is unique in his own ways and i like that.

a year ago i met this charming man in a concert in Cannes.I was really impressed by his voice,his performance
and his charisma.He had this low profile modesty that only true stars have,but all the while i was thinking about your question,chris or jeff??
I made up my mind but the show was over,it's a shame that he was right there
in front of me and i didn't pay the proper attention to his art cause i was so busy trying to categorized so stop thinking and start listening..
