yeah, without phil jordan they wouldn't of been even half the band they were , they are all vital but he allowed them to really explore that sound and intensity they created .. most underrated drummer of the last 20/30 years for me
Love The Music,their music always makes me feel alive,and when I've seen them live its even better and you cant say that about a lot of bands,im 69 and ive seen hundreds of bands so believe me i know,great stuff.❤
I love the bit at 15 seconds where it seems Phil is breathing in the atmosphere. I'd love to know what he was thinking at that moment. (podcast question Adam?)
This band were bloody amazing! I discovered them on TOTP back in the day. Saw them live a couple of times. They really got to the back of my head! I would to see them one last time at a festy somewhere
I absolutely loved this band, saw them a bunch of times, Leicester, Leeds, Birmingham, Nottingham, Reading Festival, and an absolute classic of a gig at The Spa Theatre, Bridlington on 3rd May 2003, supported by Kings Of Leon (yes, really…) ❤
Hi from Latvia :) When I was back in high school I used to save money to buy original CDs. I usually bought local bands (they were 2x cheaper then foreign musicians CDs and I didn't have that much money back then) but there were few exceptions. And it was Strength in number album
So amazing. I know during the live stream Phil commented he put it all out there on this track as this would be the last time he plays drums live, but I really truly hope that isn't the case. Even another one off The Music concert would be great.
I had a dream the other night about meeting y’all! I was sad when I woke up and realized it was just a dream…I haven’t seen you live since ‘03 or ‘04. 😢 That night was incredible.
First time i saw you on MTV back in the getaway, days you touched my soul (first artist i became a fan of) now with the comeback i'm feeling the same way.. so thank you
One of the best live version of "The Walls Get Smaller" I've heard, or any other better version guys? Had the privilege to hear n see them live @Summer Sonic, Osaka back in 2004, mind-blowing!
pretty ballsy to end a set, perhaps the last set you'll ever play with an instrumental that was a b-side and a secret track... but when it's this *fucking* immense I can't think of a better way
Crazy to think how young you guys were when you put this song together. What’s next? Any chance you guys will ever release your b-sides. First I’ve heard some of them recently and they are amazing .
Hi there. That was just a one off reunion show. We haven't reformed or anything, other than for that 1 gig with a warm up too. I've just announced my debut solo album 😍😍🥳🥳
Nah mate. Just standard 10s. Don't need changing in my opinion just to step down to D. Suppose string will be tighter but so what 🤷♂️ I honestly don't see the point
As good as the incredible guitars are, that drummer needs recognition for keeping everything so tight. Unbelievable.

The drumming on this is unreal. Great music.
Love The Music,their music always makes me feel alive,and when I've seen them live its even better and you cant say that about a lot of bands,im 69 and ive seen hundreds of bands so believe me i know,great stuff.❤
One of the greatest bands ever, you can tell it all developed organically from many jam sessions and became something amazing
For the last 18 years this has been one of my go to riffs whenever I pick up a guitar. Pure post-prog-rock gold. I love it
We covered this song with the band I played in as a student 20 years ago, really miss those days!

He's thinking thank f that he's not playing it as fast as big day out. Yes.
Great band, so many memories from life, loves and long roads. The sound is absolutely spot on too 🙂

What a track. What a band!
I saw these guys on the last tour before they broke up. Amazing. I always hoped they'd get back together
So amazing.

I agree wholeheartedly mate
Did he really?? No way
Which livestream??
I had a dream the other night about meeting y’all! I was sad when I woke up and realized it was just a dream…I haven’t seen you live since ‘03 or ‘04. 😢 That night was incredible.
It's amazing what you create when the 4 of you are together. Beautiful
The most underrated band I've ever heard by far.
I would go to the crossroads and sell my soul to live this all over again!
