Don't get me wrong, I freakin' LOVE this song, but isn't the band getting a little TOO into it for this particular song? The guy on the right looks like an epileptic.
This song is incredible. It doesn't soudn quite as good this time as in the recorded verson, but Spencer's voice is incredible in this one!! I saw them last night and his voice wasn't as good as in this one, the instruments were too loud. I also think they play it too quickly in this one, but it's still amazing.
they're one of my favorite bands. and this song is completely amazing. but in my opinion, hearing this live totally sucks! they do have plenty of energy though.
Is it me or do the band members seem a bit tame? Maybe it's the shitty crowd... They are coming to Los Angeles in july... YOU CROWD BETTER BE AWESOME!!! None of this faggity leaning and head bobbing!
no, it's definitely not a Gretsch. Gretsch's always have the master volume knob just south of the neck when that guitar has all 4 volume/tone knobs in the standard spot, also it doesn't have the pickup selector on top that exists on all Gretsch hollowbodys. Finally his has covered humbuckers instead of the filtertron style that's on Gretsch's. (yes, i have no life, no need to point that out). Anybody know what type it is?
i read in an online interview that wolf parade's favorite music right now is from a local chicago band called "tin tin can". i listened to some of their stuff and it's pretty good.
Check out Sunset Rubdown's album - Random Spirit Lover if you want to explore the influence. It's also on SR's latest - Enemy Mine, and on Wolf Parade's Mount Zoomer. You aren't imagining it!
I like his songs the best. This and Dear sons and daughters are my two favorite on the album. Prolly has something to do with how they flow into each other
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Spencer Krug is really the only talented member of this band. everything sorta materializes around the fact that he is an incredible player and writer. That's probably why Sunset Rubdown and Swan Lake are WAYYY better.
I get to see them in 16 days in Austin! (6/24). I sure hope they fit this song into their Mt Zoomerful setlist. Or id would be really cool if they did it as an encore like they did at the end of 07 not too long ago. I would pay the 23 dollar ticket price just to see them perform this song! And for the jackass that says they suck live... PLEASE ATTEMPT TO COMPOSE THAT. Please. Just try, I dare you. Then post your results so we can all point and laugh at you. Dork
Yup, went last night 7/25 in Austin and they played most of their song. It was a packed house. I think they really enjoyed all of the fans. They smiled and thanked us a lot. They encored with this song, and it was one of the best versions I've heard. It was amazing. Their guest opener, Wintersleep was also very good.
