Emeralds @ No Fun Fest 2008

[britefite]

yeah they sound great but look pretty fucking awkward.

[Madvillain100]

nice mark

-lake road market.

[DerekMcA]

How come every band that's somewhat spacey is related to fucking Pink Floyd?

[liedowninthelight]

@DerekMcA cus they brought spacy into mainstream

[earinsound]

sounds great...sounds just like tangerine dream, popol vuh, and fripp/eno...nothin' new....young'ins playing their (expensive) record collections....

[liedowninthelight]

@earinsound only without a turntable on stage

[stavx]

Haha,they are playing this kind of New Age set,which I like,yet, the kid on the left is acting like he is playing with the fuckin' Wolf Eyes!

[lyricallobster]

Excellent video - thanks.

[jimrita]

this is great

[whitecalx]

they are simply wonderful... the official new pink floyd

[NigerianSeafood]

well that's a bit insulting to emeralds don't you think?

[reemtron]

@NigerianSeafood haha obv you've never met them

[Midnightpitbull2]

@whitecalx are you serious? the new Pink Floyd, this music is pathetic, these people have no musical talent and the funny thing is that they think they do. That guy Mark Mcguire sucks at guitar, so they turn up the synth to make up for it. I saw them live and i wanted to shoot myself .

[threeoneg77]

@Midnightpitbull2 Seriously. Finally someone who knows whats up.

The guy on the left is such a douche...he keeps shaking his head in disbelief at how awesome his tones are "I CAN'T BELIEVE I'M THIS COOL".

You kids ever heard Fripp/Eno? Tangerine Dream? Anything before 2006? This shit is biting classic ambient so hard it's nauseating. This dude is so blown away by his filter sweeps like no one's ever pulled off one of those before. Looks like surfer boy's mom bought him his first Korg.

[loljksmiles]

@threeoneg77

is seriously the basis of your opinion the fact that the guy is comfortable with his work? really?

To say they are valueless because the music came before them would have the same logic as if we are all worthless shit because inevitably some ancestor had to be a badass who fucked and killed. don't think that nostalgia and cynicism can fool people with the illusion of intelligence.

[paranormalpatrol]

@threeoneg77

Although I do prefer the aforementioned artists when it comes to live performances (no debate there), I have to agree with loljksmiles; it was about time someone started filter sweeping like the old guys did!

(But it still needs more cowbell.)

[NigerianSeafood]

@threeoneg77 woah stop the fucking presses, somebody out there is enjoying themselves and giving a passionate performance? not on my watch! oh yeah tangerine dream pioneered this shit? what do you plan on telling us next? that you can't breathe underwater?

[kraxsmoker]

reminds me of the robert fripp and brian eno stuff..i like it

[AnonXenu12]

come on, you have to show steve just for the jumper he was wearing that night

[mradamcooley]

Two guys holding down one key on a synth and guitar feedback. Genius! ........ Just kidding, I love this band.

[AnonXenu12]

FUCK ITS THE GUY FROM SCISSOR SHOCK

[mradamcooley]

Hahaha. People know who I am? The fuck...

[AnonXenu12]

unfortunately, yes

[mradamcooley]

Haha. Fair enough. I'm not a bad guy, though. Well, I don't try to be.

[AnonXenu12]

infamous.

[mradamcooley]

Better than nothin'.

[phallicmic]

man.. hyper psych sounds.. fukkin hevvyyy

u no these are sum tru soldiers

[BarriersXpassageS]

I saw these guys lastnight in Cleaveland, with Skin graft (spelling?) and fucking Wolf Eyes. was quite a show def wotrth the 4 hour drive...

lol they took like 30 mins to get high before they played it was getting lame

[indianbatking]

high on what I wonder??

...I don't blame them, though...

I would however start getting high 30 minutes before I had to go on, though, so I'd be ready by the time I played....

[jimbrim5]

so good

[podycheck]

cryptic n glistening cosmic ritual tunes

[eSyringe]

If anybody can do it, Do it! I´m waiting...

[peacebby420]

[listentocolour]

[aholeistrue]

[teacuprach]

[charlesfosterkane]

god i wish i could go back in time and see this set again up close

[abitterrevival]

i was so high when i saw this I thought it wasn't real. My mind seriously blew chunks and I came all over my pants.

[gnarlsbukowski]

so jealous

[HoldOnTightxx]

@abitterrevival i saw them last night and the same exact thing happened to me. i was way too incredibly high, the highest ive ever been and saw them, nite jewel and caribou. i died

[Riddelfediddle]

@abitterrevival Hahaha I did the same, my body just disolved and became something the music was transmitted through due to it being so loud, one of the best musical experiences I have ever had!

[3meangreen]

Emeralds Kick Ass! Great guy that guitarist.... :)

[charlesfosterkane]

this set was honestly fucking incredible in pretty much every way possible.

[skaters11]

Emeralds are the best band in the world. Simple
