Lou Smith Late to the party with time stamps, yes. Trust me when I say I’ve been watching your bcnr videos for months. Kendall Jenner is tied with Sunglasses for my favorite song and I was going to timestamp it so I didn’t forget its place in the video, but just winded up timestamping the set as a whole.
Haha. I was just having a little joke with you referencing some lyrics. Thanks for that and I'm glad my vids have been a source of perennial pleasure for you. I hope I can get to see and film them again, though they're signed now which often causes copyright strikes on my uploads. I get quite a bit of leeway, as many bands have had some great exposure from appearing on my channel, but not always.
Lou Smith Yeah man, thanks for introducing me to some of my favorite bands. One of the main reasons I wish I lived in the UK is to be able to be present for the south London scene that YOUR videos have exposed me to. Also, they signed??? Where to? How do you find out about this stuff? I don’t see anything on their socials.
@@Evanmnm lol holy shit I forgot about this comment. I love 'em both! The BC,NR debut is great and there's already a new LP on the horizon... very, very pumped. Then of course there's black midi with Schlagenheim and Cavalcade and then LP3 soon too! Fuckin awesome shit all the way around. It seems like it was only yesterday we were all dying to finally hear their debuts, but now it feels like they're putting out quality tracks and projects left and right.
Completely addicted to this, hope they will play somewhere in Europe soon. Also am I the only one who thinks this sounds like Slint + Bruford-Wetton-Cross era King Crimson?
Yeah! They get a lot of Slint ref, as do Black Midi. Very similar meter on Nosferatu as you observed. I must say Slint went largely under my radar back in the day.
Shaun keaveny played their new single this afternoon. I really like them. There's something original and yet familiar with their sound. Reminds me of Nick Cave and a British post punk band, And Also the Trees. The fiddle and sax really add an extra dimension.
Yeah! I was listening to that. I idly thought that there'd be a few extra people passing this way, as there really isn't much of their stuff online. They're playing tomorrow night, so I am hoping to grab a chunk more of their set. They've been topping my most watched list for three or four months now, dislodging Black Midi from the top three places, and with some radio play, they could go ballistic, as their parent band was poised to. Come back in a few days to check out some more.
I love their "Kendall Jenner" song. If you hear the drumming and riff of the beginning of the song it's almost exactly the same as "Exercise One" by Joy Division!
Finally got the chance to see them last night at MOTH Club, been meaning to since I heard they were all ex-Nervous Conditions. Super impressed, very excited to hear more. Very tight band, and considering the other band on the bill were Duds, that's saying something.
They're getting a lot of love on here! I saw Nervous Dispositions, who I thought were poised to be the next big thing. Glad to see these guys rising from the ashes. I'll get more footage when I can.
@@syaoranoni54326 I don't know them Must be good though. The singer from BCNR played at the acoustic night I go to every Wednesday. Here is their version of Sister Ray with Rosy from Goat Girl and Angus from NoFriendz. th-cam.com/video/i0hir2N-ctA/w-d-xo.html

@@LouSmith interesting. since you were so helpful with that response, i'll push my luck. any insight into why the original commenter applied this term to Isaac Wood?
Haha! All of the musicians here have probably had relatively privileged upbringings with access to a good education, including music. There’s always a class element to British society and often an inverse snobbery that goes with it when it comes to pop culture. I guess the op was saying that it’s unusual for people from that background to have the intensity of experience to draw on to write and perform great songs that are relevant across class lines.
Location is the same for all of them. Sometimes I have an audio back up plan field recorder. The PA is positioned differently in some nights. If it's too close to the stage it can get a bit hot. I'm not sure now what set up I used for each though.
Kristopher the only song title I know it's Athens, France as it's their single release. There's not really a huge amount of info about them, and my two videos have been the only visuals to date, this one having been doing the industry rounds in a frenzy to sign them. A lot of love coming their way.
@@LouSmith me too, really in love with that single, missed out on the 7" unfortunately. I saw them as NC once and was really impressed, this is even better imo.
@@TheMglan Yeah. I saw them too at the Moth Club I think. Tune in to Mary Anne Hobbs on Radio Six tomorrow at noon for a live in session 12 march. Views for these couple of vids are going to rocket!
You may be right. Thus was a pretty early gig after all. The guitar amps are all stage right in the Windmill, so he'd be behind Isaac as usual if he were there.
where it all started.
Farewell Isaac! Thank you for everything.
crazy seeing how much theyve changed since this live set
Yeah. This was pretty early on. I love to watch the evolution of songs.
Darkly enough, TH-cam’s algorithms brought me here, and now I’m a fan. Whoops.
Yay! If it brought you here from Black Midi, that would be understandable. Pretty relevant though eh?
Kendall Jenner is such an insane song
When he said "I pass through Southeast Asia for enlightened GAP years, each interchangeable with the last, american sneakers on vietnam soil" I felt that
They speak of now. That's why they're so exciting.
@@LouSmith never heard a band that sums up the state of mind of someone my age (18) anything close to how these guys do
Maybe too much so? They changed a few lyrics because they were too raw and revealing.
@@LouSmith yeh i can understand that. I think the songs they chose for the record find that right balance
That performance of opus😲😲 gets me every time
The clue is in the title😜
After he messed up for a second you can see Lewis shaking his head at the camera with such an anxious look around 16:38, hahaha
Absolutely love the recording of Opus on the record, but the raw aggressiveness of this performance is hard to top
Yeah. The early outings were pretty spesh.
Have you seen the 2021 Paris one? Great in a different way too, imo. And potentially the LAST, now that I think of it.
0:00 Algorithm
5:36 Instrumental

Dyou know which label they've been signed to? Heard rumours it was ninjatune?
This is fucking amazing. I am so, so excited for the futures of both Black Country, New Road and black midi.
How you feeling about each now?
Larry David said it best.

@@tashmitkhan2853 what you thinking now
@@tashmitkhan2853And now? :)
I love this band. I'll listen to this set and realize that I'm not breathing. Kendal Jenner brings a tear to my eye.
I just keep coming back for more and more, it’s so good I wanna cry bro…
Let it all out bro.
thank you isaac
Damn. This is the most exciting band I've seen in a long time.
that first verse / poem was the perfect amount of afraid and intense
cunii yeah! He does the angst pretty well does Isaac.
Completely addicted to this, hope they will play somewhere in Europe soon. Also am I the only one who thinks this sounds like Slint + Bruford-Wetton-Cross era King Crimson?
I absolutely hear Slint from the first guitar. The wordplay from the vocalist reminds me a lot of Captain Beefheart in a way as well
immensely late reply, but I always thought that the heavy section of Algorithm sounded just like something off of Red
oh my god i need them to drop these songs as isngles or an album already im so in love with this shit
They've released two of them as singles already. Sunglasses and Athen's , France Not sure if they sold out already though.
Lou Smith do you know what the first song is called?
@@sciencecharity Maybe Algorithm? not quite sure.
:(
@@sputnikradovan :( indeed
for real tho hope you're ok Isaac, we all love you !!!!
Some Nosferatu Man Slint vibes at the 12 minute mark.
Incredible stuff

@@LouSmith Hi Lou - who's topping your list these days, if you don't mind my asking? You were certainly on target three years ago. Fantastic channel
I love their "Kendall Jenner" song. If you hear the drumming and riff of the beginning of the song it's almost exactly the same as "Exercise One" by Joy Division!
I do not know why but this put me in tears. so intense. thank you.
🙌 Seth. That's because you're a sensitive soul. Music is very powerful.
@@LouSmith thank you Lou. Love what you do!
@@Seth-hc2bj Thanks, Seth. Appreciate it.
Thank you so much for getting a recording of this. These tracks are incredible, bless 🙏🙏
You're welcome. I enjoyed every second.
Saw BCNR at The Lexington on Friday and I think it’s safe to say that I have a new favourite band!
I think you're not alone. ;)
Black Mirror but a band
You'll get more of a chance to reflect on that later when I upload last night's gig!
Black mirror, new road
Finally got the chance to see them last night at MOTH Club, been meaning to since I heard they were all ex-Nervous Conditions. Super impressed, very excited to hear more. Very tight band, and considering the other band on the bill were Duds, that's saying something.
Nice venue too. Yeah! I'll definitely be keeping an eye open for future filming opportunities. They make for compelling watching/ listening.
Ahhh I was also at the duds moth club show , really liked these guys , will go see them again for sure
They're getting a lot of love on here! I saw Nervous Dispositions, who I thought were poised to be the next big thing. Glad to see these guys rising from the ashes. I'll get more footage when I can.
@@LouSmith love this band.. are they really all ex-nervous conditions? too bad that band got derailed, let's hope for good things for this one!
Putting this as a backing track to Black Country, New Road
Huh?
that first song oh my god wow
Okay this HITS
These guys are good
Algorithm is still probably one of their best songs.
phenomenal
ba ba badada, Phenomenal ba ba ba ba ...Yay!
Avantgarde theatrical spoken word post-rock
I feel like a disconnected fan by not being able to go to these shows.
Gonna get to plug in again in the not too far distant future.
17:04 Never thought I'd see the day when Klezmer music became cool but here we are!
I hear shellac, Tortoise, Rodan and a bit of Slint in this... great band
They're gonna get snapped up that's for sure.
Rachel's as well.
2:43 they know its good
this is insane, this squid and Viagra boys, so much amazing music using brass.
Those other two bands are definitely on my wish-list for capturing soon. Even FWF have gone Sax and Strings!
No brass lol
this is pretty cool and they're in my country :D
great stuff... writhing. arrangement reminds me a bit of guildhall military orchestra
There's some kind of Turkish or Middle-Eastern vibe going on as well.
Same sax player
@@jackyoung2879 oh that's interesting! seeing gmo in cambridge this week so had em on the mind

Yeah, it's golden alright.
RIP Algorithm and Kendall Jenner
Long may they live on here.
This is fuckin incredible
Incredible
Next level
scary good
Don't be scared.
the only cute posho ive ever related to... asbconded me and every fellow bcnr fan listening from a caravan. Gutted is an understatement ;(
I guess it's possible he'd take comfort from that.
What is posho

Majestic.
Roxy Music from dimension 7. Pretty cool.
As from 11:50 the girl on the violin proves to be a huuuuuge fan of Slint, right? :-)
They need to release a live album
Using a time machine ...
boy do I have the album for you
They already did it.
this aged well!
Goddamn that jam was a-bappin'
One of the first times that jam bapped! But a favourite of many.
what a real fucking hype man
best new act of 2019?/1//!?!???!!?
maphix they've done pretty well in their short life.
maphix black midi
@@vicvinegar5709 i like BC,NR more
I need a full length now oh my god
Faaaarrrkk! This is ace
Oh Yes! Check the other one too if you haven't already. ;) th-cam.com/video/bIP62_0htow/w-d-xo.html
found this on my suggestions bar
You couldn't make it up. Life imitating art. 😉
is this audio quality better than the 2019 one because of their setup, or your own setup/location filming?
Location is the same for all of them. Sometimes I have an audio back up plan field recorder. The PA is positioned differently in some nights. If it's too close to the stage it can get a bit hot. I'm not sure now what set up I used for each though.
Looking forward hearing more from them. Isn’t Karl Hyde’s daughter in the band?
Now you know more than me. I know the sax player from a couple of other bands, and Isaac, the singer, I know from around the South London Scene.
I could be wrong....
Haha.
Underworld have done some collaborations with members of the band. That would explain it. Those collabs are why I looked up BCNR.
yes i believe she‘s the bassist
first song is like something out of taxi driver
Just some gentle rain and defocused droplets required.
Singer kinda looks like cillian Murphy
any songtitles / setlists around? thank you for the recordings, wanna cut those up and make a little live album out of it for the go.

LP when
One day, no doubt. Early next year maybe?
Swag babey
Definitely maybe😀
the replacements
Oh my god, this is so old that Tyler still had blonde hair
Indeed. I feel she looks better with it dark.
did theyy get the name black country from the tonstartssbandht song
Who knows? Could be. I think they're mostly from Cambridge, so not really their home patch.
Pretty sure they are named after a road called ‘Black Country new road’ which is just outside of Birmingham
When are they dropping an album
No idea.
does this guy like kendall jenner dude?
That would have to be a question for him I guess.
singer a smack head? just wanna know cause i wanna pick up whatever he's got
Not that I'm aware of.
KENDAL JENNER'S BLEEDING ALL OVER THIS COUCH
Who could blame them?
is this pre-Luke? or is he just hiding out of frame?
You may be right. Thus was a pretty early gig after all. The guitar amps are all stage right in the Windmill, so he'd be behind Isaac as usual if he were there.
Pre-Luke. He joined in mid-2019.
Kendall Jenners waitingggggggg
wtf, are brits cool again?
When were they not?
