This. My dad went to their concert in Nashville a couple years ago and they gave him a bowie knife and a bag of hotdog buns. The knife is autographed. He has it hanging on his mantle

Swans

Fushitsusha

Joy Division

>>68198802
they are and were inconsistent as fuck live. there are still times where they're much better live.
>>
Really surprised no one has said the Grateful Dead yet.

Their best albums are the early to early-ish live albums. Live/Dead and Europe '72 are both absolutely phenomenal.

Fucking Ghost.

Ghost is badass live.

Hardcore is live music

Melvins, man. They're okay on record, but live in a good venue with good sound and an appreciative crowd, they fucking slay

>>68199258

Yeah, they seem like a band who can turn up and really half ass it, but when they're on form like that video I posted, they're amazing. The version of Doin the Cockroach about an hour in is phenomenal.

LCD Soundsystem

I prefer The Long Goodbye to most of their actual albums desu

had a bad time watching them in Amsterdam.
The first half of the set was fantastic - felt my teeth shaking from the volume.
I thought the glass costume the vocalist came out in afterwards looked tacky, like it cost about a fiver to put together, the handheld laser was awkwardly shit, just left me cringing.
>>
>>68196738
Pearl Jam, Nirvana, Alice In Chains, Soundgarden, and Stone Temple Pilots. Grunge in gent sounds better live.
>>
>>68199944
so the reason you had a bad time has nothing to do with the sound, but with atillas costume?

priorities, dude
>>
>>68196738
Devin Townsend. Every version of his songs he does live is just as good or so much better than his recordings.

Live at the Royal Albert is his strongest performance I've seen but he never disappoints.

Brand New

they can be amazing but it really depends https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yqQ7tU26Q6E

kek, of course I've seen this infamous vid. I was referring more to their live sets as of late. I think we can all agree that Live at the Ritz does Painting With more justice than the studio album does.
>>
>>68198244
so wrong. AF suck ass live but their records are pretty solid.
>>
>>68202506
you're wrong
>>
Jagwar Ma
>>
>>68201509
off topic, but why live at the ritz? i think i prefer the performances on live at the fonda
>>
>>68202903
haven't really listened to fonda, but I really love the setlist for the ritz, the flow is just super organic.
>>
Jamiroquai are absolutely ridiculous live, tighter than your animaymay waifu's pussy.
