[Blewitup1]

Great sound! An amazing way of jammin.

[ledestroyer]

these are the kind of bands why I got into prog/math rock

[rajtherat]

what a shitty crowd

[pixiesmachine]

Reminds me of Rush. Great instrumental skill, great ideas, and the singer is.... meh, an acquired taste

[dotytanner]

@pixiesmachine exactly the way to put it!

[chamboz69]

these guys sound like a mixture between battles and piglet. tasty sound

[braedonizzle1]

it's in 4/4 bros

[euphoricxd]

pretty sure the whole song's in 4/4. the syncopation is playing tricks on yo mind.

[zenlikethat]

i love the bell sounds, i love this song. this band is pretty much my favorite.

[8tr33s420]

man this is one of the best songs off this album! does anyone know the lyrics for it?

[3thskabeats]

@8tr33s420 re-assembling artichokes la dada dahhh

you have already

you have already

ohoh

[alexdewaaaaal]

ah.. amazing

[peteTHH]

man that drummer is so good

[ARDrumr]

yea he is, the time signature changes r tough.

[rajtherat]

its all 4/4 in this song dude

[ARDrumr]

no its not, the solos go in and out in to 3/4 and 5/4

[rajtherat]

oh yea ur right my mistake... :P

[TheLiesette]

@ARDrumr which when you add together you get 8/4, which is two bars of four in a compound time signature, but the phrasing does sound like 3 and 5.

[joemaddock]

It is... just really syncopated.

[dontdropthatshit]

great band, they are amazing live. i cant wait for a full length cd. the other two blow my mind

[Xcokedav096]

grrrrrreat song

[salisindie]

[insertlamejokehere]

Does anyone know if there's any live footage of Ted Zancha out there? I keep searching for it without any results.

[ailbubble]

there is if you look up Ted Zancha, but it's crappy quality...

[DrmTilDie]

went to see portugal and rx bandits in philly and these guys just so happened to be opening as well, never even heard of them. now i love them

[RunandPlayMusic]

I have decided that these men are not real.

They're too good.

[djchandler]

I love the vocalist.

[therampanthamster]

stunningly good.

[s3rino]

i get to see them and foals on the 24th!!!!

[LittleEvjr]

They're all such amazing musicians.

[JoeThePsycoRobot]

there is a huge neutral milk hotel influence in this. i dont know if other people see that.

[AbasketOfOpinions]

HENRY

of course

[MarquisInSpadez]

Nah. Hipsters would like to think that as to try to validate why Neutral Milk hotel is even a band, but no, Maps and Atlases are just far too good for that.

[Larryr424]

they so cool seeing them live.

[Uboofs]

What are you trying to say?

[Uboofs]

The intro riff he is tapping is realy cool! Especialy because he is singing at the same time!

[AtrumAethra]

I FIGURED IT OUT!!!!!

YAY!!!

[ande8537]

i have a video up from this same show and i thought it had good quality, but this is a great video. do you record a lot of mpls shows?

[px19]

ok. i gotta comment this video again. because its practically studio quality.  and david is sharp on vocals unlike the subterranean show i went to. guess that means i gotta follow there asses to cali !

[AtrumAethra]

yeah

they're fucking amazing every time they come to frisco [san fran]

[musical9musician]

Don't ever call it "frisco" again. Ever.

[px19]

i cant wait for the studio version on this. this set must've been priceless

[Dedbigfed]

Fucking finally!
