Bloc Party - Hunting for witches (live jools holland)

[SonGoku544]

their best song

[BadGameIsBad]

I'm sure I could make some clever remark about the drummer being Asian and there being a Pikachu on the stage, but I won't.

[hbrt1324]

i love that riff ! <3

[nicoflamel1]

now it's not the time for liberal thoughts

[juicyjohnbox]

@nicoflamel1

could you explain what kele means by that?

[kaweichan]

The drummer is so ninja the hi hat can barely keep up with him..

[RoryAstenBell]

1:48 Thumbs up for the Pikachu

[dannylaine1096]

this song made me love bloc party <3

[MonkeySwoop]

2:37 kele's eyes....... *___*

[SerratedWings]

minnie mouse 0_0

[raiga1324]

Pikachu! bloc party chooses you!

[AyalMorann]

Star of David on the lighting??? 0:48 why???

[Rmusik100]

Christ Matt Tongs a machine how much faster than the album hes playing while singing.

[Yoooern]

Hate that the lead guitar isnt THIS loud in the album version, I LOVE this version.

[pwndrumn00b]

I love this song and this performance, but I only added it to my favorites because of the "BLOC PARTY ROCKS" Pikachu at 1:55

[seanSHRED87]

...still clever and awesome!

[TheCmworld]

I just love how Gordon looks cool everytime he plays!

[bassmajor]

@jjenkins134

Whammy and short delay for the intro and the main riff

[godpol]

Matt Tong is my hero in drums

[ShubieChris]

There is no drummer as fast and yet precise as Matt Tong!

[GenTVR]

@ShubieChris

try Jack Bevan from Foals

[ShubieChris]

@GenTVR

He is good (in This Orient). His chops doesn't sound as crisp and clean Matt Tong's, just my opinion. Like Foals too.

[GenTVR]

@ShubieChris

yeah, just my personal opinion. Bevan has intense stamina

[angelsfromthesky]

I can't think of any other band where all the band members are so outstanding individually. And they're even better together. Bloc Party is amazing.

[molovesrhcp1]

What is Matt listening to in those headphones?

[Davidjamespinnock]

@molovesrhcp1 The intro tape to start the song in sync

[Davidjamespinnock]

Respond to this video... sorry, I am a Buffoon. The band has "in ear monitoring" he is also listening to the intro, but, with his "in ear monitoring"

[molovesrhcp1]

@jjenkins134 No idea but they fucking rule!!!

[SinkDifferent]

thumbs up for the pikachu =D <3

[videotape22]

pog

[jeakmunt]

Amazing Guitar Sound,I Like It

[Keumii56]

Whammy, reverb (gate effect), compressor & an overdrive (I think) cause I covered this song with my band.

[SurvivalGuitar]

eL BATERIA ES LA POLLA!

[jimyjamyninjas]

yellow.

[steinhoffski]

Matt is a friggin drummer beast!

[deathtrack15]

LOL kele's evil stare @ 2:37

[deathtrack15]

I let my lady gaga fan friend hear this. She got hooked onto bloc party after a week

[z0elk]

2:07 See how he drools

[grungifiedtwo]

Russell you are one of my favourite guitarists. =)

[salimiful]

@jjenkins134

i think he use a digitech whammy for the pitch effect and a boss dd3 for the delays

[Browncoat1138]

@salimiful I believe he also uses an octave pedal of some kind, and either an overdrive pedal or a really dry-sounding distortion pedal.

[youpagans]

LASERZZZZ AT 1:39

[Thefrozencoconut]

@jjenkins134 A pitchshifter effect, DS-1 distortion and a boss d-3 delay i think.

[antialiasing38]

awesome lyrics!!!

[TheYounitsTube]

@jjenkins134

He also has a Octave Pedal for sure so he can play it on the first 3 strings and starting on the 11th fred.

[ragnatoad]

@jjenkins134 I'd say some overdrive or distortion + some reverb or delay pedal.

[FrancoAC]

@jjenkins134 Delay with a short repeat.

[StickManga]

@FrancoAC rusell is the lead guitarist?

[Digggyyyyy]

@StickManga yes and he is possibly the best for decades

[JohnnyDarkoKelly]

They look nervous

[DoubleYellowLinesUzu]

@jjenkins134 I actually think he is using a coin at the start with light delay, then with the riff same delay and distortion! :) Just observation guess!

[zhou112]

@jjenkins134

[AbdiXL]

i love those laser sounds. pew pew pew!

[farouqlah]

kele sprayed something haha

[TheSoldierofPeace]

Bloc Party deserves alot more yelling and applauding from the audience in my opinion!

[devilshaircutnessity]

@jjenkins134 yapp,russell uses slapback-delay, distortion and for the intro an octave-pedal..

[drunkonmilk87]

@jjenkins134 whammy pedal and slap back delay i think.

[OliverEdwardV]

look at hi-hat shine haha

[RyanRossBrendonUrie]

Holy shiet they go from normal tempo to like 350 beat per minute!

[kensevenfold]

russel rule

[DasMe86]

sick!

[ctmo1234]

just some delay.

[lovablecreeper]

@jjenkins134 there's a few different tutorials around the net for that. as far as i can remember he's using a delay (i don't which one, he has a few digitech ones and one or two electro harmonix ones in his rig) and an octave generator (I believe the electro harmonix POG).

And that's just for the intro, haha

[kibbey111]

if you pause it at 1:21 kele looks like a fish

[samlee123456]

one of the best songs of all time.

that guy below me is a dick
