chilli Posted June 6, 2005 Author Report Share Posted June 6, 2005 Astonishing show. Have seen AMT a bunch of times and this one must be the fiercest I've ever seen them. The twin drum assault is overwhelming...the lame support Shit & Shine had 5 drummers and couldn't get close to the sound Shimura & Okano produced. My jaw is still on the floor." "Wow, that was amazing stuff!! My ears are still ringing Despite equipment troubles, despite being pushed to the end of the night by too many crappy amateur support bands (why does this always happen in London????) --- the Cosmic Inferno was hotter than hell! Earsplitting psychedelic groove rock! Hats off to the drummers especially, what demons!!! If you get a chance to catch this tour, take it take it take it!"A repeat of the 1st night of the tour, if you want see & heat astonishing drummingsupporting cosmic guitar............. this is the once in a lifetime opportunity to see this happening in Aberdeen David Keenan The Wire Magazine & The Sunday Herald jazz columnistthis is the best AMT line up (he should know he 's brought them to Scotland a few times)Guardian Newspaper NO 1 Gig of the Weekget on down Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I must start heading to more gigs.Fuck, I really should have bought some merch.Damn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim Stax Posted June 7, 2005 Report Share Posted June 7, 2005 ErmTwo plus years of monstrous noise at Drakes and nothing came close... It was, I will say rather uncomfortable and for the first time ever! I had to take my leave early... No I'm not getting too old! Well done for having this gig happen and my apologies Mr Mike and Mr Graeme for sneaking away with most of my hearing still intact... No lasting damage... But my internal organs have been moved around! o_O Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graeme Posted June 7, 2005 Report Share Posted June 7, 2005 Your sneaking away was noted. You missed Scotland The Brave as an encore!! Not kidding. I need to track down the guy who was recording it to hear that again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I needed a full suit of body armour last night - I swear my body is still vibrating even now. I think the hearing is back to normal - getting the buzzing light above my desk fixed has removed most of the humming I've been hearing all day.

I need to track down the guy who was recording it to hear that again.So you think there's any chance that the recording has come out as remotely listenable? I'd be terrified to put it on my stereo in case my hearing really does go! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Zeenat Aman Posted June 7, 2005 Report Share Posted June 7, 2005 As I was saying to Alan, it was strange musically. Just when you thought they were perhaps noodling a bit too much, a sudden energy would appear from within the music. I dont know to describe it properly, anyone else feel it, get what I mean?I loved the double drumming. Well done to Jenny for handling such an onslaught of sound so well!!!

Jyes there were two, your eyes must have been shut as well..........That was a most fantastic experience, totally without precedent as far as i am concerned. I did take earplugs, but kept taking them out from time to time.Well done to the tunnels etc for putting this on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ragudave Posted June 7, 2005 Report Share Posted June 7, 2005 Twas quite loud but not as piercing as Opaque or as ear shattering as Wire or Pan Sonic, whose volume affected my balance mildly for a couple of daysGreat gig - amazing to see band member asleep a few minutes before they went on stage. Not that keen on the singing but overall a lovely psych / noise / krautrock onslaught.Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
