Can you talk about the album Above, by Mad Season? It's an excellent album and no one seems to really talk too much about it. It has Layne Staley from AIC on vocals and includes Mark Lanegan on a few tracks. It also includes Mike Mccready from Pearl Jam on guitar, Barrett Martin on drums, and John Baker Saunders on bass.
John Dywer is going to go down in the history book. I can't remember the exact comparison, but I remember Ty Segall saying that in "years to come John Dywer will be as legendary..." and I totally agree. His work ethic, his live energy and his guitar playing is seriously influential. He truly is a titan of 21st century rock and roll.
For sure. Definitely a legend in indie and underground rock. It makes me wonder how much more influential he would've been if he'd made the same type of music during the 90s and earlier on when rock was a part of pop culture.
I would not be surprised in the slightest. He really is a visionary musician but seems like the kind of dude you could have a drink with and not be "starry" at all. I mean, he could be the most massive arsehole and his legacy would be assured...let's be honest, he's not the most original or dazzling lyricist but part of me thinks he's more into using words as sound and not really for their meanings but his music speaks for itself.
@@vollsticks I remember some article interviewing on the Internet describing Dywer as the kind of dude to cycle around San Francisco and buys you a taco. Anyway, yeah he seems to take the Kevin Sheilds approach where he creates a wall of atmosphere more reliant on the music and energy rather the lyrics ideas. Although the lyrics to I come from the mountain are pretty damn catchy!
@@richiedagger733 Not more? Thought he'd made close to 500 or so. Not a fan though so i'm probably wrong. When it comes to 3 digit numbers it's easy to get lost
I saw them almost ten years ago for free, didn't know them yet, and before the show started a boomer told me "I saw Motorhead, I saw The Rolling Stones, I saw every big band. Get ready, this is the most rock'n'roll show you'll ever see". Having seen around a hundred shows, mostly punk and metal, at that time I thought "OK grandad, enjoy you rock'n'roll show"... And then they starting playing. And to this day I still haven't seen anything more rock'n'roll. It's pure energy, it melts your face off from start to finish, and the crowd instantly goes insane. One of my best shows ever. Never miss them if they're coming near you.
John Dwyer of The Oh Sees wrestlers that guitar like an alligator He is one of the best guitar players out there, full of energy and vigor compared to the likes of Angus Young. Amazing dude. Excellent choice to cover!
That's a really cool comparison, because I recently heard him in an interview say that ACDC was probably one of the first artists he really had an affinity for. Haven't gotten thru the intro so idk if Lie also says that lol
@@LieLikesMusic Haha it went ty segall into king gizz into thee of sees for me. I went to a ty segall concert 2 years ago but i hadnt heard any of his songs yet, completely drunk and high on shrooms I went into it, probably one of the most fun shows i've ever experienced. The song The Fall was crazy good!
@@LieLikesMusic Psychedelic Porn Crumpets is another band that I learned about thanks to King Gizzard community. Their first album especially is amazing. Dopey's Robe & Ty Segall would be cool too.
Hey mate. I just wanted to talk a bit more on the connection between king gizz and ohsees. Back when gizz were just starting up, ohsees were a pretty big influence in the underground scene around where we are from. The influence definitely bled over into gizzards early work. Even onstage persona was a thing from ohsees. Later though they developed a style all their own, but did end up working with the band.
@@MajicFreeman Well for one, they're both Bay Area bands so there's already a deeper connection. I'm not saying they sound like Primus, but a song like Red Study wouldn't exist without Primus
@@MajicFreeman i noticed a lot of similarities with Primus in the Protean Threat pre-release live video from last year. If nothing else, Dwyers singing sounds almost exactly like Les at a few points just in case theres any doubt, i love it
I suggest you check out Omar Rodriguez Lopez from At The Drive-in. They have quite a few live shows here on YT. They have a similarly wild attitude on stage.
You are right. John its a huge example of how to be persistent, patient, and steady on working on whatever you want to do with your live. We, all emerging artist, must see his work as an inspiration and a guide of how do things to grow from nothing toa very special place in the worlds conciousness
I think most osees stuff is in D standard (apart from maybe smote reverser) with the low string dropped occasionally for songs, this'd make the dream much easier to play than how you did it since you can just move the major chord shape on the 2nd, 3rd and 4th strings about instead of having to change shape
Thanks for doing a video on these guys. I recently got into both Thee Oh Sees and King Gizzard and as of this video release I have a combined 25 albums by them. As for my favorite by Thee Oh Sees I think it would be "Face Stabber". It's the first album I heard by them AND I like theirlo ger jams.
John Dwyer used to listen to metal, he used to like metal. Sure, he liked The Misfits and Black Flag and other hardcore bands, but... to say that metal wasn't cool is disingenuous. I know, I was there. We were listening to Metallica, Flotsam and Jetsam, Voivod, Metal Church.... Danzig (where do you think he got the haircut?). I introduced him to The Can, so you got that right...he was and is a big fan. But he also listened to a lot of Pink Floyd and the early Floyd sound is instantly recognizable in a lot of his songs, especially Syd Barrett era Floyd. An influence many probably don't know about is Thin White Rope, they were in heavy rotation in those late 80's, early 90's days; along with a great deal of Skinny Puppy. John has had a lot of influences, and if you listen... you can hear them. Tell me if you can hear Blue Oyster Cult? :)
Are you the individual responsible for the smoking sentinel incense collab w/ Dwyer? If so, I was fortunate enough to secure a box, wonderful stuff! 😌 Typing of metal, I'll be seeing Mercyful Fate and Kreator tomorrow evening. Later in the week, Osees--always such a pleasure. I definitely hear the Syd Barrett era Pink Floyd influence, which I do admire. His solo material is great too, Madcap Laughs stays in rotation. Also, thanks for introducing John to Can. 😄
Its a little introduction. Doesn't do the giant rabbit whole justice that is thee oh sees though. They are a hit or miss kind of band. If you have to ask why they're great you will never understand.
@@LieLikesMusic you know I'm always trying to stir you into the right direction with class A musicians that will make you just a better guitar player. Rodrigo y Gabriela will blow your mind if you aren't too familiar with them. Gabriela, hands down, is one of the best top 5 female guitar players for the innovative style she has created. Might not be a bad idea to cover them in one of your videos. Have a good day my friend!
@@forthedoggiesguitars2277 I'm listening to them now. I think i've heard their song Tamacun somewhere before. Maybe on Breaking Bad or Better Call Saul. The Holy Wars cover also sounds sick. I love the acoustic style and the muted/percussive style of playing. I appreciate your input :) Have a great day man.
@@LieLikesMusic yep, one of their tunes was on Breaking Bad. Their latest album, 'Mettavoltion' wound up winning the Grammy for best Contemporary instrumental album. If you check out their cover of 'Echoes' by Pink Floyd, you can see why they won. It's cool you took the time to check them; it's worth it. When I make recommendations, I make sure they are not time wasters. I would love you to do a video on them. Have a good day. Todd.
Dude you kinda messed up with that part 'bout Gizz Everybody knows that they took a lot from Osees, especially in their early days I fuckin love both bands btw
Saw them live at SXSW a couple years ago, i was sitting on the stage next to one of the drummers, it felt amazing. i got tinnitus for at least a day afterward XD
the way you said it sounded like he was the one copying Stu Mackenzie, when in fact he invented those tricks and Stu included them to KG songs later on...
Dwyer and the Osees are an absolute monster of a band, I love how he just presents what he wants to do every time, avoiding criticism of his work by turning off comments on all their videos. It’s just a mix of punk, thrash, prof, metal, psych rock it’s great. Protean threat was my favorite album but like face stabber, orc, smote reverser, mutilator defeated at last and the new a foul form are all good they’re all different
I agree, I was excited to see them get some recognition but now I'm disappointed. Do you know of any videos that do a better breakdown/analysis of their music?
@@tylerhowie1304 Honestly not really, I've always wanted to make one because I've been a fan of Osees for almost 3 years now and have heard all their records a few times over. That's part of the reason why they're so cool to check out: their discography is so expansive and layered that you can't just do a surface level look at it, like Lie did here. You really gotta make an almost hour long video, and even then that's not FULLY in depth.
Yeah this guy has good music taste but his videos aren't very insightful. The king gizz microtonal one didn't explain shit, he just said "uhhh yeah they use microtones" and played 2 riffs and somehow dragged it out for a whole video.
@@thisperson6708 Thats so Cool! - didn't know that. I feel like there is also a huge influence from the stooges on their sound as well. It would be really cool to see a video on proto punk / kraut
@@thisperson6708 Nice profile pic, great record! Also I, too, did not know that Can is JPD's fave band! Man, I scored, the cheapest, *cleanest* copy of Limited Edition a few weeks back, record and the sleeve are both NM, plays beautifully. I just love "Gomorrah", "T.V. Spot", "Empress And The Ukraine King" and "Mother Upduff" and the "E.F.S" tracks on there are really cool. For an album consisting of, basically, "bits 'n bobs" it hangs together really well
@@thisperson6708 (Nairobi-Munchen)!!??!! YES! I forgot that one! Stars as a crazy drum/keys-that-may-or-may-not-be-flutes, treated viola (?) and eventually bass and what sounds like "found sound"...then goes really quiet with just a slow guitar motif and bass motif? Hahah I just described most of the album! I got it on now to make sure! What you been thinking to the Mute/Spoon coloured vinyl remasters? I was really pleased with the gold Future Days and pink vinyl Delay, they sound so good, and the fact that Irmin Schmidt is involved in the remastering, well, you know you're getting fidelity as close as they can make it in terms of verisimilitude...fantastic sounding records. Particularly pleased with the bass attack and lack of "drop off" on those remasters, from the green vinyl Ege Bamyasi to the orange Tago-Mago...they've supplanted my earlier reissues of said albums. Just so fucking good.
I stopped the video when he mentioned how their sound is similar to King Gizzard. King Gizzard is similar to Oh Sees. That is like saying the Beatles sound a lot like the Monkeys.
Since the dawn of time, king gizzard and the lizard have be trekking through a harsh wasteland (filled with sentient computers, vultures with human remains attached to they're decrepit bodies, and melting wax the traps unwary travelers in a shell of its own self) just to find the last component to create John Dwyer.
If you think the albums are good, check out the live performances.. the album songs are basically templates for improvisation and they are almost always better live.
Crazy how little research went into this video. Theyve been experimenting with two drummers for over a decade now. Also the tunings they use are much much weirder than he gives them credit for (almost none are drop tunings) and if you watch live videos you'll see hes pretty much completely wrong, the dream especially has some very prominent drone strings he's overlooked. Also no mention at all of the folk era? Even tho he showed multiple clips from it
Lol this guy tried to argue with me like actually have an argument because I said I never seen them call themselves The OC’s meaning Orange County lol I said well I don’t think they’re from Orange County but I’m not going to say they didn’t because it’s too clever for them not to right? But obviously I know about Orange County sound (ocs) but it’s just one of those things ya know lol
I was first introduced to this band while attending a pool party in Mexico. Glad I didn't drink any of that tequila the chicken man brought with him, tho...
Next time you do such a cult band go more in depth man cause this was all based on one interview preety much... everything you said about johns lide he says in a recent interview
Music 🎼 🎶 🎵 question what is runtime in music like Jonathan Miller music told me that runtime starts off at 0:00 and finishes when the music 🎼 or audio is completed can you please do a TH-cam video that focus around runtime on music 🎼 and also can you also please do a TH-cam video on album 💿 single and ep definition because what Jonathan Miller music told me that a album is a collection of audio recordings issued as a single idem and has 7 song 🎵 and has 25 minutes in runtime songs can be more than 7 song 🎵 and be more than 25 minutes in runtime but album has be be more than 30 minutes to be count as a full length album.
Thanks for suggesting Osees! What band or artist should be next? 🎶🎸

Dylan Sizemore is like mini John Dwyer it’s wild how obvious the influence is!

Found em by accident years ago, and I now have quite a few of their albums…..so unique. Damaged Bug is also a fave
Slow and steady for Dwyer is at least an album per year for over two decades and still running. 😂
Nice volta shirt dawg. And great vid

I stopped the video when he mentioned how their sound is similar to King Gizzard. King Gizzard is similar to Oh Sees. That is like saying the Beatles sound a lot like the Monkeys.
Osees, ty segall, king gizzard fans. We must unite and becone stronger then the kpop fans
EXCUSE ME WHAT THE FUCK THIS IS MY FAVOURITE BAND
WHAT THE FUCK THAT'S SO COOL. THANKS FOR WATCHING
Bro, te lo diré en castellano. Thee Oh Sees inspiró a Stu y al mundo de King Gizz.
Since the dawn of time, king gizzard and the lizard have be trekking through a harsh wasteland (filled with sentient computers, vultures with human remains attached to they're decrepit bodies, and melting wax the traps unwary travelers in a shell of its own self) just to find the last component to create John Dwyer.
John Dwyer helped in the creation of KG actually
pretty sure JPD just uses D standard tuning always.
Lie Bro, Smote Reverser and Henchlock have to be the best OC albums haha, I like all their stuff, but them two albums are real gems.
Protean threat is really good too. But I consider those two to be there opuses
Its called a tape echo bruhhhhhhh
Hands down the best band other than the Beatles
They're definitely original. Great live band too from what i see and hear
@@LieLikesMusic yeah man have u heard the live version of encrypted bounce on kexp
@@harrygrubb1656 No not yet. But the recent Levitation sessions are awesome.
This made me laugh my ass off... but then then I thought, shit... maybe he's right! 🤔
Do Lightning Bolt, please!
If you think the albums are good, check out the live performances.. the album songs are basically templates for improvisation and they are almost always better live.
You do realize Oh Sees were a big Gizz influence, right?
After 100 comments of people telling me this… maybe? 😅
which song is at 3:00
Thumb buster
Crazy how little research went into this video. Theyve been experimenting with two drummers for over a decade now. Also the tunings they use are much much weirder than he gives them credit for (almost none are drop tunings) and if you watch live videos you'll see hes pretty much completely wrong, the dream especially has some very prominent drone strings he's overlooked. Also no mention at all of the folk era? Even tho he showed multiple clips from it
Please do multiple Steely Dan videos
Nice video! But bro... you have broken pixel on your camera and you just gave me a heart attack cuz i'm watching that on my new laptop i just bought
Lol this guy tried to argue with me like actually have an argument because I said I never seen them call themselves The OC’s meaning Orange County lol I said well I don’t think they’re from Orange County but I’m not going to say they didn’t because it’s too clever for them not to right? But obviously I know about Orange County sound (ocs) but it’s just one of those things ya know lol
I was first introduced to this band while attending a pool party in Mexico. Glad I didn't drink any of that tequila the chicken man brought with him, tho...
My favorite musician of all time:)
You should do a video on ASIWYFA. They hella underrated
one of the best bands out there today in my opinion. love dwyers guitar work.
Next time you do such a cult band go more in depth man cause this was all based on one interview preety much... everything you said about johns lide he says in a recent interview
I like this new format, much more involved
Mark Linkous, please 😭
Tied for the best live act I’ve ever seen
dig the videos, but man that food scene makes no sense ahah
Sorry boss i think its spelt Oasis
The coachwhips are better.
10:24 Dippety deep dap dop! A video about Be-bop and scatting next?
Be-bop is a little too far away from what i'm already doing. Thanks for the idea though hehe. Be-bop guitar perhaps
t amoo
YEEEEEES THERE ISN’T MUCH VIDEOS ABOUT THEM AROUND. THANK YOU!
No problem. Any band or artist you want me to cover next time?
@@LieLikesMusic PJ Harvey would be an interesting one! Not much video essays about her either :D
hopefully someone can make a good one
What were you eating sir HAHAHAHAH
do avenged sevenfold!!
Duh fuckin CAN man
Music 🎼 🎶 🎵 question what is runtime in music like Jonathan Miller music told me that runtime starts off at 0:00 and finishes when the music 🎼 or audio is completed can you please do a TH-cam video that focus around runtime on music 🎼 and also can you also please do a TH-cam video on album 💿 single and ep definition because what Jonathan Miller music told me that a album is a collection of audio recordings issued as a single idem and has 7 song 🎵 and has 25 minutes in runtime songs can be more than 7 song 🎵 and be more than 25 minutes in runtime but album has be be more than 30 minutes to be count as a full length album.
Fuck yeah 🔥
