The Concourse

Well, I'm going to be introduced to 'the concourse' for my first show there. new venue, and altho my friend JoJo says it has bad sound, i'm still pretty fired up.
While i was surfing around for info, i stumbled on this, this, and this, I must be the last person on earth to have heard them.

Knights of Cydonia has just so much political hooha running through it. Don't let that Mars exploration reference get past ya (reference to the Dub, or am i reading in? "And how can we win, when fools can be kings?). Also, make sure you listen for that QOTSA riff throughout...

City of Delusion is interesting. The mixing is so weird on this track with the vocals and guitars so up front, with the bass n drums all way in the back...and the fiddles/violins (I don't know enough to know the difference, if any. Uncle Anus, can you tell me?) bringing the middle eastern flair. wack. Don' forget the horns and Spanish guitar right through the middle. Excellent mixing.

And about SupermassiveBH, man, i just don't know what to think about this weird Beck/Prince sounding thingie....

Excited to hear the rest of it. I'll be surfing for leaks until it's released.

The Origin of Symmetry stuff sounds best on the live Hullabaloo disc. Looking forward to the show...
