I'd totally forgotten how amazing this is till a friend of mine mentioned he was going to The Earl. I looked for this video for half an hour. Still amazing!
This is quite funny. I just wish there were more videos like this exposing the enormous number of pretentious bands in the world.
Also, was there anyone in the audience? Oh right, they were appreciating the art.
I have to feel for the bass player because he seems to want to play only to be bullied by the stripped prick in the guitar. Why doesn't he electrocute himself on stage as a true artistic statement. I would appreciate that.
You guys don't get it. It was actually written in the style of Beckett's films, minimal concert performances. John Cage for a new, hip generation. What they are doing here is a statement on the music of today, it says nothing; well these guys DO nothing AND say nothing. Genius, purest genius.
This might be the most brilliant video I've seen on youtube in ages. However, I don't think any of the brilliance has anything to do with the band and has more to do with Curt's commentary which I've found endlessly entertaining. Keep it up, buddy!

Curt, this is Dave from Snowden. I haven't laughed so hard at a youtube clip in a while. Pure genius!

I should toss my guitar away and give up all together, NO way I could ever match their level of intensity.

They've taken things to a whole new level. I await part II squirming and twitching.
