The Gault - Oakland (12/31/2001)

[swarmorocean]

Have been a fan of this for years. As far as I'm concerned, "Even As As All Before Us" is the only goth record ever made.

@nevermafia, this song doesn't exist in recorded form, unfortunately. The band broke up before we could record it.

@lorrainerath

thats a shame, great stuff tho,

was the lead vocalist in any other projects?

[lorrainerath]

This song is called "Skinwalker." It was the only finished new song we ever performed post-album, pre-breakup. And John Gossard was right, no one really "got it" then, but 10 years later it's a cult hit among certain circles. Go figure. Just proves how important it is to make the music you want to make regardless of what others may think. -Lorraine

@lorrainerath Thanks for the info ! It's cult here, but the cult forms more a point than a circle...

[nevermafia]

this is a really rad song, is there anywhere i can get it?

Unreal! This band is incredible, don't front. It's sooooo good!

" John Gossard: No... With The Gault, I’m pretty much sure that everybody hated The Gault. Personally, with The Gault, I don’t think that technically we could ever pull off anything like Weakling, but as far as emotionally, and some of the weird grooves we got into, we did some shit that definitely that good. But nobody likes it. Maybe some people will like it in 10 years... "

its a shame that no one really digs it. its one of my most listened to vinyls. i think more ppl would appreciate it if more ppl would hear them, ive never talked to anyone who knew who they were.

@MrBouzeux I played one of my bands last shows with The Gault in Olympia as a result, partially, of a non-responsive scene there as well. I guess it was kind of pussy to bow out like that but if that isnt goth i dont know what is. Either way, thanks for the fucking amazing band. Hail sadness!

[nevermafia]

which song is this? its not on even as all before us.

[MrBouzeux]

@nevermafia Well, I guess it's an unreleased song without name... let's hope there is others like that out there !

[sloughcorpse]

This band's one and only album, "Even As All Before Us" is phenomenal.

[nevermafia]
