It's like nightmare surfing music. It's like if you were floating in the bathtub high on acid and could hear The Beach Boys playing from the next room over.
i first heard these guys my sophomore year of high school. i just graduated from college a few weeks ago, and this band has been with me the entire time. thank you palm for everything!!
This is crazy. I just discovered these guys a few days ago and they sound like my favorite band, Women, with the vocals of Animal Collective, another one of my favorite bands.
for those who say that this is disorganized, the rhythms are wrong or are random, the voices are wrong, need to know that is not so, every sound is planned to check that can listen to the album "trading basics" with all songs in, and played in a very similar way, (only here put more juice!) is only this band does not use resources / licks that most bands use, they explore other resources, elements, so it is well, at least creative, and one of my favorite bands.
just saw these guys two days ago!! best and most friendly band ever. they're incrediblyyy amazing live. through all the different time signatures, they're all with each other. I don't know how they do it.
We've got plenty of months left, but this live session is my current pick for favorite release of 2016. So much to break down that I don't even know where to begin. Still listening to this all the time weeks later. Thanks to Palm for this awesome batch of songs. Can't wait for the next.
you think this is a badna of math rock? why do you say that? I think it is not, the melodies and chords are not on the commonplaces of math style Math rock / pop rock as This Town Needs Guns, chon or covet, (perhaps it is more like bands like Tera Melos or Don Caballero) yet so would not call Palm one band Math rock, maybe Rock experimental, progressive. Is important to say at least that the guitars do not touch virtuous riffs, or perform any difficult procedure, except for changes in the metric / meter structure, that's all that will allow me to say that has a bit of math rock, harmony and counterpoint is super-creative, and timbre from these search is very interesting, this band has a lot to give.
It blows me away that they're self taught. I thought for sure they had gone to music school. They're so complex and play such precisely crazy time signatures. Beautiful sounds. I'd love to see them open for Tame Impala.
EJ's Home for Wayward Music they did go to music school, they might have majored in it. But they went to bard in upstate NY, which is an arts and music school. They got exposed to it all.
Spankasaurus Rex Nah man odd time doesn't mean it's influenced by trout mask. That's a very cliche sentiment I think. Could it just be they like odd time?
Gretchen, Telstar Drugs, Omni, Freak Heat Waves, Each Other, and The Hecks all sound a bit like Women in some way. There's more but they're not as good IMO
I found it humerous that this is like the textbook definition of experimental math rock, and yet these guys claim they never consider themselves "math". I respect their humble response though.
Tommy Scott eh, if they don't consider themselves to be math rock it would make sense for them to want to distance themselves from that label. especially with all of these comparisons to Women that everyone seems to make
Wow, finally found a band that gets it. Getting lost in the nuance and textures. Actively listening. As much as I respect and appreciate traditional music education, The only way you get a sound like this is if you do your own thing and follow your own impulses. Make your own rules. Fresh ears. Esp interesting that they all learned together, as noobs.
I can't stop listening, once you get in tune with their melody's it becomes quite enjoyable, I don't like the phaser on the vocals though. the guitar tone on "untitled" is very unique, it sounds like they're playing chords really high on the fretboard and then pitch shifting down. Really interesting band.
this is what Palm would sound like if you were listening to them in audiotree's live studio
Correct.
accurate
True
Not untrue
Anti-incorrect
It's like nightmare surfing music. It's like if you were floating in the bathtub high on acid and could hear The Beach Boys playing from the next room over.
I loved your analogy.
Great description
just saw them a few days ago, one of the other openers said that their music makes you feel like youre swimming and fighting at the same time
like spongebob interludes on acid
but yeah they're great, my favourite band, saw them live this summer
So accurate
i first heard these guys my sophomore year of high school. i just graduated from college a few weeks ago, and this band has been with me the entire time. thank you palm for everything!!
Can't believe this was 2016, time flies. I've probably watched the full session 25 times since it came out
same, brother
same, but from chile wtf
Still flyin' on by
ha, keeps on keeping on.
The most valuable and finite resource. Don't give it up. fuck money.
w04h I was not expecting them to sync back up after they started doing random stuff at the end of the first song like that. That was class
Such amazing abstract guitar tones and notes, drummer and bassist sound like they share the same mind. Legendary band!!! Super band!!!
This is crazy. I just discovered these guys a few days ago and they sound like my favorite band, Women, with the vocals of Animal Collective, another one of my favorite bands.
this band deserves to be huge
Just like my channel, subscribe to my channel
If only they made it HUGE. today they announced their breakup. Im here to mourn.
It started out sounding like random assorted noise and over time my brain made the connections and it started sounding really good.

Man, one of the most creative bands iv'e ever witnessed.
Been following these guys since their first ep. This is a very special band.
This is my new favorite band. Thank you Audiotree. You've been killing it lately, especially with those Night Idea and Donovan Wolfington episodes.
this rendition of composite is really good
Got to find them just yesterday. Sound phenomenal
This is actually really fucking good
Watched this live when it was initially streaming. I've been anxiously anticipating this upload ever since :D
the best band of the last decade, without question
We've got plenty of months left, but this live session is my current pick for favorite release of 2016. So much to break down that I don't even know where to begin. Still listening to this all the time weeks later. Thanks to Palm for this awesome batch of songs. Can't wait for the next.
These musicians listen to each other and it mushrooms from there. Nicely, crazily creative. Well worth the listen. Thanks.
Happy to see this! I got to see them open for Mothers in Chicago and I fell in love. Great music
Brilliant! A very refreshing band, I'm glad I found this.
palm is one of our favorite bands
Palm was incredible in Cambridge and I hope they come back one day
well RIP to that dream, sad Palm is done.
@@aeueeaia yeah it is what it is
This might be the best audiotree
why is this like the shortest audiotree session when its by far the best band to be featured?
Malcolm Ekman youre a fucking douche
they hated jesus because he told them the truth
incredible band, thanks for this session!!
so bummed theyre breaking up
The 3rd song has so many layers, fucking amazing band. Super impressed.
COOL! Thanks audiotree for the mathrocking.

Changes to the meter and structure is what makes math rock for me, so sure, but it's a very wide term.
this most certainly can be called math rock, but prefer to call it art rock because it is more avant-garde.
yes!
sounds like math rock to me
did you expect that when you clicked the button?
I expected some shitty pop punk band from Cali. This is crazy good and unique.
no and i'm glad i did it
not at all
Jason Ritchey yes
I can't believe this is 4 years old now.
I would strongly advise anybody who doesn't like the first songs to skip into this video. Some of these live versions are so good.
greatest band of all time
God damn their interviews are awkward but their music is fascinating. Love the jangly guitar uniqueness. I wonder what their creative process is like
NickB33 Angular jangle, is what I call it.
They listen to what burns never returns on repeat
Wow what an original band. Very talented and creative
the way the host asked if eve wanted to change a string was so wholesome
I was searching Lamp and then I find this... I love mistakes.
fuck me too
Lamp as in the Japanese band?
most favorite band ever. best band.
R.I.P. Leonard cohen
Hugo really holds it together
It blows me away that they're self taught. I thought for sure they had gone to music school. They're so complex and play such precisely crazy time signatures. Beautiful sounds. I'd love to see them open for Tame Impala.

sounds like Trout Mask trying to cover Person Pitch
Holt Evans yes my man I was waiting for someone else to mention captain beefheart there are heavy influences of trout mask here
Spankasaurus Rex Nah man odd time doesn't mean it's influenced by trout mask. That's a very cliche sentiment I think. Could it just be they like odd time?
Trout Mask is not odd times, it's insanity. Not comparable at all.
heavily influenced by Don Caballero
@@larrydigger461The tuneful but discordant guitar parts and lurching, staggering rhythms said parts follow are definitely a little Beefheart.
they're the best
Favorite band eveerrrr!!
I do love playing tele but sometimes bands like them makes me want have strato😂I love them!!!
if aliens came to earth and tried to play a beach boys song it would sound like palm
Respect! Thats not easy to compose let alone play
This is my new favorite band
Definitely prefer this version over the newer studio session
i like any band that sounds like Women
if you no more plz tell me
Gretchen, Telstar Drugs, Omni, Freak Heat Waves, Each Other, and The Hecks all sound a bit like Women in some way. There's more but they're not as good IMO
I love Omni and The Hecks! Check out Faux Fur if you've never heard them!
Thinking Fellers!
Dories!
LOVE THEM!

Besides singing, does Kasra ever say anything?
she's a good host
this is what happens when you run stereolab through a granulizer. jk lol sounds fantastic.
I want to see a Rig Rundown with these guys.
Holy ring mod Batman! I think there’s an EHX ring thing in there.. what do you think?
you don't mind if the rundown will be umm.. quick?
You can get the same experience watching SpongeBob in G minor videos.
This is calculus rock
Reminds me of a stripped down animal collective, I love this shit
Maximumcapacity if they smoked crystal and binged on beefhart and crimson. Maybe haha.
YIKES. So goooood!
pinback like vocals... pretty dope
This is like metal without the distortion and screaming
19:57 yessssss!!
CORRECT IAN
awesome band, the best
Geeeeeeze. How could a band be so fucking good?!
daringly different.. shades of Gentle Giant from 40 years ago
Second song: When Tera Melos go to Lavender town
Ricardo Rodríguez I loled
I loled again
@@charizardoystersauce still lolling?

this is so sick
this shit is wild asf when youre trippin balls
Primus vibes. Love these guys.
reminds me of the swirlies. so happy to have stumbled upon this :D
These guys must be praying to the Women's song Shaking Hand every day. Stil very very very good
I like her voice.
this is insane
you are doing the right choices it seams .... Nandor Stockholm Sweden
damn this band is dope
Barely music, best thing I've heard in years, 10/10, very Kanye. god bless yr souls. love, david.
You are so right, great sound for nasty autumn rainy, cold weather in Germany. So warm music, fool of love.
The Autism is strong in the Ankles. I lub it.
hard to find bands that sound like women. so far palm, faux fur and red sea. this is probably the best out of them
might be two years late, but you should check out Ought, its one of my favoritd bands. a friend recommended me women and palm based on them
I can't stop listening, once you get in tune with their melody's it becomes quite enjoyable, I don't like the phaser on the vocals though. the guitar tone on "untitled" is very unique, it sounds like they're playing chords really high on the fretboard and then pitch shifting down.

innovation!
the best band
Yes!
Love this, if they would have easier songs, we would put them in FRETX, though they are just awesome as such!!!
Perfect bedtime music!
I am getting heavy Shellac vibes. If Shellac were on shrooms.
Would appreciate any valuable answer
jawny
Jesus this session is heaven, really liked this host too.
Me encanta la Palma
In the first few minutes I was like wtfff then I was ;D
whoa!
Very good
tera melos worship is cool
with splashes of The Dirty Projectors
Awesome!
Wtf who the fuck are these guys
This is serious shit
