Beak - 'Iron Acton'

[pel56ab]

I will have this song played at my funerals just to annoy the hell out of an excessively conservative aunt of mine.

[grinderman77]

I'm so amazingly hooked on this song. My wife really doesn't get it at all and I tell her you have to be a real music fan to enjoy this kind of material.

[fi3082]

Geoff Barrow Rules!

[Rockmeallnightlong79]

This is how it's done. power trio all three on the one. This is raw and full of witchcraft.

[WeLiveToDanceAlone]

maybe they should have spent the conventional time to make an album instead of putting these tracks together so quickly, good songs need time to transform and evolve.

[deloreanized]

@WeLiveToDanceAlone Hahahahahahaha!!!

[jparsonsscott]

so poor. this is nothing compared with portishead.

[commonberus1]

@jparsonsscott Portishead appear to disagree. <Beak are appearing in a Portishead curated event on the 23rd July.

[819OMEGA3]

@jparsonsscott It's just NOT the SAME thing!!!

[SuperiFox]

@jparsonsscott I'm sorry you disagree, but decide to put other people's opinions down :/

[12eyesofdervinperp]

Would an simple yet amazing bassline.

[ar1972]

NEU avait déjà tout dit en 1972, alors WHY????

[9999999999eee]

ur unbelievable...!!!! GREAT..



[LesJokerKing]

sounds the same as 'the horrors - sea within a sea' ?

[cgarciar]

@LesJokerKing and they both sound like Can - Mother Sky

[FUCKINGY]

...only 12 days for the album....is remarkable, extraordinary....is music in the blood!!!!

[iwantemout]

Beak> are awesome... I want to be in a band like this - anyone up for it?

[alquimiaazul]

@iwantemout i am up for it

[Trembomb]

no offence. sounds like 12 year olds messin around jammin on cough syrup

[salro99]

@Trembomb but that's why we lieb it so....

[WOMP2007]

@Trembomb that is fucking hilarious, it just goes to show you, that if your surrounded by instruments and your parents did drugs, you too could make this shit. doesn't mean its bad, it's more like someone saying verisimilitude rather than veneer.

[deloreanized]

UberKrautrock. Totally.

[Dolce1924]

brilliant x

[WarpLover]

I saw Beak supporting Chris Cunningham - They were fkin great!

[ninameise]

silver apples...

[redshaftedflicker]

i'd like a little horseradish on my horseshit por favor.

[MssCucamonga]

NICE TUNE!

[andyharvestedwards]

CAN "mother sky" pt 2....love it !

[Billbo5x5]

Iron Acton? Thts where i live lol

[folk728]

I AM DAMO SUZUKI !!!

[Generalp28]

Very "neu" indeed but excellent tune!

[kuglepen64]

wack drumming

[lollohose]

it seems a cover for Mother Sky but with Ian Curtis singing. def. not so original.

[litlgrey]

Everything about this performance screams CAN. And that is perfectly proper!

[TheLestat422]

Project from the instrumentalist of the Portishead album "third" for the ones who care Lol

[marDiibum66]

OMG! Ö

[puggo]

hallogallo ;)

[jackpott0169]

Simple but good

[Caligula138]

simply put... fucking great!

[entrokid]

Live yeah....Studio no......Great show at colston hall this year tho Geoff.

[lodown200]

cool.

[Dereck89]

sounds a lot like Neu! I like :)

[tonausstrom86]

i dunno, i think that synth noise is fuckin cheap...

[zinxderobo]

get it? chickens have a beak, chicklets, cheep cheep?

[Chicomalosd]

damn good

[antiload]

Like it. Very Can-esque

[poisonousParagraph]

CAN / Silverapples. sounds like

like sound

[rhabarberkompott]

great excerise in motorik düsseldorfer schule. even the vocals are krauty!

only thing i miss is somewhat michael rotherish wah ornaments. short: you need a guitarist.

[peteypete1984]

@rhabarberkompott a guitar wouldve been a nice not totally washing the track out with guitar but just a little bit here n there would be beautiful

[fonaktamas]

@rhabarberkompott - yeah just like a song from NEU!

[kotppp]

świetne !!!!!

[rubensalceda]

bubububububububleeeeeeee!!!!!!­!!!

[VonKerosene]

I was like - WTF?

[innerorgan]

vv good

[DichteBauten]

remembers me of CAN ...

[Chisuz]

lame

[vervoerplaats]

remembers me of NEU! the good old days..

[gnpolec]

it sucks

[loquat2008]

Great video. I'm not sure how much ground is being broken, but this is a treat.

[KGridMod]

I loves it!

[statelyeye]

Things to do in Bristol when it's wet. Love it... There's nothing better than sitting around with your mates playing motorik riffs. try it...

[LeMasseBattenti]

So F-----G Awful!

[HoneyWhite]

checK u out, beak>!

reminds me of a sound having to do w/the love child of modern queens of the stone age & kid A.

makes me wish i've not been in rehab these past 3 yrs *sigh*

[JoeVolkMusic]

I think it's fucking ace.

[EEEEELAD]

Sorry dont like lt too much like Kraftwerk for my taste

[djmofoTX]

I thought of NEU! too, also early Cabaret Voltaire with the garage electronics.  Dig it.

[Zbejo452]

This is absolute crap| Playing the way krauts did more than 35 years ago is totally pointless, please have a listen to Can, Tangerine, Amon Dull, Guru Guru, A.R.T instead of this. Reminds me the weak parts of Third, bleah! :-P

[Batchainpullers]

Ah come on it's pretty fun playing that stuff...

[Caligula138]

@Zbejo452 your comment is pointless... how can reviving a genre that is as brilliant as Krautrock be pointless?

[Zbejo452]

This is just a poor copycut way of playing. This is crap, ready for the garbage can, lads save your money! ;-) WINK

[strupinskas]

i really like geoff, but this is crap

[tomagoot]

Magnifique !

[argelgore]

thats good , waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa sounds like 80s wow congratulation BEAK

[awakingvista]

Just sounds like NEU! to me...

[furtherinfusion]

yeah !!!!!!!!

[ma6teria]

Excellent . Love it . Bravo from Marseille !!!!

[michalkooz33]

what's the effect that keyboard player uses to make those weird sounds?

awesome thing, cant wait for the album! :)

[ryandaddi]

Yeah, awesome. Love you all. Good luck!

[nbeck003]

well i love it. and the bass is great. and it reminds me of Goblin. and i'm into that.

[threadpusher]

wow what a happy bunch of commentators. The songs ok. It's experimental with out depending on the portishead sound. I'm not mad at it. it's just one track...i'll give them a shot.

[dellausi]

excellentisimo . . . respect for the people in the project as well __wish more people would enjoy this so more music like this would come out ____and live ! ! ! plus edit [ i love that ]

as soon as i have more money ordering the box set __i checked a link to 6 songs on the project - great ! ! !

peace

[grillecap]

sounds like can soundtracks album beat and joy division lyrics.

good combo i guess. if yer not trying to get a new sound.

mhe

[bluntlaser]

CAN't

[beat76]

yawn is right

[justsay33]

So how does your latest tune sound then?

[77mare369777]

the synth was the only thing i dug in this song

sorry but *Yawn*

[massfusion22]

the synth reminds me of old josh wink.

[w7nter]

So, NEU! with considerably less detail. That synth playing did absolutely nothing for me.

[VictorArayaT]

yawn.

[cheochivista]

so the song starts at 1:30? boringgg.

[machinedream09]

Organic Groove

[3transmit]

For True Krautrock Check out

Eat lights; Become lights

[fog189]

Sounds like Neu!, or others 70's german rock bands

[broflow008]

yawn.

[narcoTOURIST]

AMAZIN>

[classicwomb]

Dope.
