    I met Dylan outside a venue. I was drunk out of my mind and star struck, but knew I'd regret not talking to him. I didn't say I loved his music or anything like that, I just asked him what the biggest animal he could take in a fight was. He entertained me enough, saying "Maybe two raccoons, because I'm not very tough."
    Anyways, they killed it that night.

      @@menasouvlaki3595 So 2 piece bands are jam bands? White stripes, daft punk, tenacious d, beatles, Nirvana, and tons more all were 2 piece bands in the beginning.
      Also, Earth is a 3 piece. The bassist just wasn’t there for the gig.
      You’re literally hating on Kurt Cobains closest friend he ever had bro… This band is amazing live. You literally feel every note and lose yourself in the music unlike most shows where you aren’t entertained anough and pull out your phone to record instead of actually being there.
      You need to do some research before shouting out “jam band” my dude. Sleep is another 2 piece band that has a 73 minute song. That’s not jamming. That’s insane skill. To memorize such long songs.
      I used to play 15-20 minute songs in my old band and it was the hardest thing I’ve done musically.

    The coolest thing about this band is the constant exploration within their chosen aesthetic. There's a universe of difference between this and Extra Capsular Extraction and, honestly, had Carlson hung it up after Earth 2, he'd still get free dinners. When Sunno))) came along and picked up where that LP left off, Carlson was already moving into other corners of the amber colored slo-mo. And it never stopped. I'm particularly big on the raw, guitar / drum config they've been doing in recent years

    Had the absolute pleasure to see Earth live in D.C. at the 9:30 Club, opening for Boris. My mom and I met one of the members of the band outside the venue and because I was a little less well-versed in individual musicians I didn't realize at first and she chatted with him and then all of a sudden we're in the place and the dude walks on-stage and my brain does a fuckin skip and I had to process that we just met one of the members of Earth completely out of the blue without me realizing it. Utterly amazing band to hear live. Swear to god that when they played it was like a pressure wave pushing everyone in the audience back a little, and when they stopped playing it was like everyone shifted forward because that pressure was GONE. Brilliant. Great opener for Boris, too, they were on their Pink tour and it was a good way to get acclimated to the heaviness before Boris brought the fucking speed with the eponymous track off Pink. I was a wiry little teenager with a pair of thick frame glasses and earplugs and was afraid of the mosh pit so I left the front of the stage but god what a killer performance.

    I drove 2 states to see them perform in 2013 at this weird club underneath a highway. Smoked with Dylan and got matching tattoos with him because there was a tattoo shop right there.
    He signed all my vinyls and literally walked over to me and my friend to play most of the show right in front of us because we were so excited to be there.
    He’s an awesome guy. No wonder Kurt Cobain loved him. The drummer is really nice too. I’m a drummer myself, so me and her talked for a bit.
    Overall it was one of the best experiences I’ve ever had and definitely worth driving 2 states away for a 1 hour gig! I’d do it again anytime.
    P.S. he even played my favorite song Ouroboros it was siiick
