Is all their music like this? I'm looking at a show in a week that will be at least 1 hour-1.5 hours. I don't see how I could, how anyone could, enjoy this for the whole show. I mean, I could understand if this was a study of some kind to be appreciated & contemplated, but enjoyed? Any suggestions, please?
This is their cover of a King Crimson song. Pat Mastelotto has been one of King Crimson’s drummers for many years. I enjoyed their Crimson covers most during the show. Their own originals were also very enjoyable (to me). But I would say they are of a comparable genre (if that helps in your assessment).
Also check out David Rathje’s channel for another one of their songs from the show, as well as Stick Men, and both Mastoletto and Markus Reuter are also 2/3 of Stick Men.
I checked out a show by Stickmen not long ago, which is a simal band with 2 of the 3 members of this one. The music may be a bit of an aquired taste, but since I was listening to King Crimson as kid, I must have aquired it early on. I think their compsotions, angular as the may be do follow a certain logic, which is more than what I get from a lot of left of center rock music. Listen to some King Crimson (maybe start with Discipline), then go to the show, and maybe you too will have acquired the taste...
Yes, people do enjoy music like this. "Level Five" is from the King Crimson album The Power to Believe. You should give it a listen. It's very unconventional and it can be a challenge to digest, but those are just a couple of things that fans appreciate about it.
I attended this show! Thanks for the video
Thanks. Now I know what drugs to take for the free show Thursday.
