Sleep: They Don’t Sleep Anymore On The Beach

I went with my son to see these guys last night, these guys being Godspeed You! Black Emperor. It was loud and wonderful. This is the beginning of a 23 minute epic which I have always loved. For those with an interest, from the album Lift Your Skinny Fists Like Antennas To Heaven.

    And — they’re Canadian.

    So who was the God Speed You! discoverer — you, Phil, or Richie? Or was it mutual?

    Phil, would you mind if I live this experience with you, vicariously?

    I was hoping for iPhone shots. But we can imagine. It sounds wonderful. It sounds a happy night.

    Hey guys, I think you would like another band called Explosions In The Sky. They’ve got a reputation for amazing live performances in the vein of post-rock. Other recommendations I can think of are Talk Talk, Add N to (X), Slint, Ui, and Jessamine.

    Is that Richard Feynman in the beginning?
