what a mad band! they sound pretty cool to me. i only heard of them this evening from a guy down my local musician's pub (THE RAILWAY HOTEL, SOUTHEND, ESSEX, ENGLAND). could easily be put into the same catagory as THE FALL. nice weirdness, keep it up
Hell, when you think about it, Thee Oh Sees would't even be a tough sale. Black Keys got famous doing the garage rock thing. I mean Thee Oh Sees are many times better, but still, they're out there enough to be interesting but not so out there that they're inaccessible.
this live version is twice the speed of the one on the album. amazing vocal effects, surf guitars, thrashing drums, retro futuristic rock n roll sound. doesnt really get any better than this as far as lively human expression. hot shit.
To answer my own problem: how did you call? from behind the water wall did you get full behind the wet wall? a ghost in the trees. a breeze temporarily i can see, i can see. ghosts shaking the leaves i can feel the pull
Ya know what'd be cool? if we got a bunch of people to request Oh Sees songs and other decent music consistently at whatever lame, corporate "Alternative" station is in their town and got 'em worked into regular rotation. Then maybe we could slowly make a dent in the generally shit taste of people who still only get new music through the radio and itunes charts.
This was technically the beginning of the thee oh sees sound and John Dwyer was already 34 at this time. Just imagine if John wasn't an ex speed addict and started this type of music 15 years earlier. it would prob be so unlimited and even more phenomenal than it already is.
theres no way you can say that with a straight face. and youre obviously not a musician. Ideas arent picked up like vegtables in a garden. They are developed consciously and subconcsiously. Every single thing in John's past has made him exactly who he is today. An artist's sound and aesthetic are developed over years and years. If John hadn't been smoking drugs and playing with Coachwhips. or Hospitals, Yikes!, etc etc.. we wouldnt have Thee Oh Sees as we know them now. It took him 10+ years to "start" Thee Oh See's sound. 10 years of hard work. and yes, drugs. But hard work nonetheless.
@@itsgonnbeok7249 I heard John say himself in an interview their sound before this that evolved into this, came about as a reason to due drugs "honestly" I don't think this guy said anything salacious, I think you read it and transposed your own pretensions and responded from something personnel defending someone you've never met
I’m aware of Johns drug history and the whole idea of taking drugs to make music to take drugs to. I don’t really know what that has to do with what the commenter said It is a moot point to suggest an artist would be better if they hadn’t done X drug or whatever. It just is. That’s all i’m pointing out. If John hadn’t done all the shit he did, Thee Oh sees wouldn’t exist. So to suggest they’d be better if John hadn’t been an ex speed addict is just silly to me.
does anyone know the blue pedal Johns using I know the other is the DD-7 but is the other a echo or a distortion? also is he using a fuzz? because the round thing next to the DD-7 looks like a fuzz face or something. an answer would be much appreciated.
RETRO FUTURISTIC?!?!?gotta luv it.when they come back to orstraylia they really should get a moody {or goldentone,vadis,diason,maton]up'em!!!and that's no word of a lie, 'ken oath mate!!!!!

Thee Oh Sees - Ghost In The Trees SXSW. 1.12.24. did the band play in some Australians backyard or am I thinking this footage is that faux recollection....?
garage rock. literally
This is probably the greatest live band I have ever seen
Same thing here, almost 10 years after!
@@TerreurAbyssale Same thing here, almost 10 months after!
@@the_dudeguy that energy is precious !
Tis my bucket list to go see them live, unrated band
What Austin was all about when I left in 97'
Thanks for making Gibby an so many other proud a decade earlier!
oh my, this is a historical artifact already
it's crazy how many genres/vibes this project has gone through
Awesome. It's great how such a unique sounding record (The Master's Bedroom...) is identical to the way they sound live. What you see is what you get.
The spark is already there
seen them at the well for the first time and they have caused a musical epiphany in my life. i forever owe you gratitude thee oh sees
Amazing recording for the setting.
what a mad band! they sound pretty cool to me. i only heard of them this evening from a guy down my local musician's pub (THE RAILWAY HOTEL, SOUTHEND, ESSEX, ENGLAND). could easily be put into the same catagory as THE FALL.
nice weirdness, keep it up
Just saw this at Oh Sees myspace, it'll be great to see this vid on the DVD!
myspace
@@Veraty I think you'll find it's MY space bruh.
Relic
When i saw them with Ty Segall and Sic Alps the drummer was on shrooms haha!
WOW. I found this jewel by accident.
Your sound/style is awesome.
Keep them coming !
You still listen to these guys?
I'd be seeing this in Olympia if I hadn't moved to the desert. Mother F. Miss you rainy town.
10 years later and my tizaint still gets nipped listening to this... js
makes me smile!
this is so garage love it
Hell yeah
Awesome! please, post the entire gig
WHOA! 1:55
He ate the microphone! :O
Nice song
great sound,
GREAT
A Boss Digital Delay DD-3 and a Dead by Audio Fuzz War.
the only reason to go in that shed instead of paying more attention to the band is the joint they're smokin in there. that frickin rules.
Damn this is soooooo SXSW, playing in the fuckin dirt man
Just weird enough. Good stuff!

tell that to face stabber - with its 20 minute final track and all...
This sounds EXACTLY like the track from the album. : o
the real influence of king gizz, same effects, voice style etc
Dwyer is the godfather of a modern garage rock
nice!
raddddd...
this live version is twice the speed of the one on the album.
amazing vocal effects, surf guitars, thrashing drums, retro futuristic rock n roll sound. doesnt really get any better than this as far as lively human expression.
hot shit.
There is a space echo next to the amp. It mostly sounds like a fuzz / overdrive with some reverb and/or some slapback delay.
Voodoo surf punk righteous rawk...
Digitech Digi delay and a mxr blue box.
Simple but catchy song. Wish I knew wtf they were saying.
To answer my own problem:
how did you call? from behind the water wall
did you get full behind the wet wall?
a ghost in the trees. a breeze temporarily
i can see, i can see. ghosts shaking the leaves
i can feel the pull
neat

twentymooseman good luck dreamer
fuck this sounds fantastic...
anyone know what they use for the voice effects?

No drugs = No garage-psy rock
"If only this guy didn't do drugs, he'd be better at psychedelic rock" are you for real
