    I can’t believe we are actually getting a remaster of YotR. The guitar tones and songwriting on that album was so influential to me at that part of my life.

    Rabbit hole, strange eyes, what's coming - frighteningly good tunes!
    The bass work in particular, the way you work power chords into the bass parts, such a signature sound, no one else pulls it off like that. Heavier than the heaviest metallers. Thank you

    So sad I missed your last tour, hopefully next time you go I'll get to see you guys again, always a great to see you guys. Luckily, I could snag that disk to hold me over.
    Also, Rabbit defined my days in high school, cannot wait for that vinyl.

    Man I’m so excited to hear year of the rabbit remastered, it’s one of my favorite albums. And I can’t wait to see the documentary. If it’s possible ever, remastering the Golden album on vinyl would be amazing, or even just copy pasting it on vinyl. I’d buy it in a heartbeat. Mange is my favorite song of yours and if that album was on vinyl or released as an actual cd I’d be all over it.

    Wow Ken, great to hear from you. I Love Failure, please keep making music, I love the classic old albums, but I love the new albums. I placed my order for this Blu Ray, I actually ordered two, one for me, one for my brother, they arrived, I have watched/ listened to it daily. the 5.1 mix is amazing!!!!! I remember back in December 2022 watching the show online, ordered it through veeps and really enjoying the livestream. Many of us during the stream in chat, said please Failure put this out as an official release. Thank you Ken, Greg, and Kellii for playing an amazing set last year on the tour, and you guys sounded perfect. Your really amazing. Thank you for officially releasing this, you should be proud of it and it will stand the test of time. Your music is smart, honest, timeless, and it sounds amazing. Any chance you will also release We Are Hallucinations on CD? I will be buying the vinyl, but the 80's born kid that I am still loves CD. Year Of The Rabbit, I still listen to that album a lot in my rotation, the vinyl release sounds interesting, I thought the CD version had a great sound to it. Hope to see Failure on tour again soon!!!!!!

    If you gave me 100 guesses what you were working on I would not have pick YotR, a live Failure album, and a Documentary.

  • @pureblackeagle
    @pureblackeagle Рік тому +6

    I loved Year of the Rabbit, I sat up in my seat when you mentioned it. I would totally buy it if I was into vinyl.
    Also the YOTR cover of I Wanna Be Adored is incredible.

  • @Ofecks
    @Ofecks Рік тому +7

    5:27 any plans for official releases of these early demos? I've had a number of them in my digital library for a long, long time (downloaded from an old fansite that no longer exists AFAIK), but they're low-bitrate MP3s so they don't sound very good. Presumably the ones on YT came from the same files. The fretless bass really makes those compositions shine. Thank you for the update!

  • @theniteowl7777
    @theniteowl7777 Рік тому

    thank you at least for "Wild Type Droid" and the following tour, which i saw the first show (i beleive) in San Diego at the Music Box. been a lifelong fan since 95. the reunion albums are like you guys never broke up. even saw Autolux and Year of the Rabbit (Casbah, and 4th and B respectively). was so thankful to see Failure live, at least once in my life. even saw you at an On show, think it was Canes. anyway, thank you for keeping it going Ken.
    p.s.: oh yeah, i did catch a YOTR show at the Casbah, just remembered haha

    Ken you guys are a big inspiration to me and I connected so much to the music and lyrics. You’re great. I’m so stoked I found your channel. I’m Jimi, I play guitar and write songs. I have over 200 songs easy. Haaaa seriously bro, if you’re still reading this, Fantastic Planet helped get my ex off drugs. I made her listen to it and it changed her life as it did mine. Thanks for what you do. Peace! HMU Haa late

    I was psyched to see a new video on your channel. I've missed these. I was fortunate enough to see you guys play in Cambridge, MA last summer and it was an incredible show supporting an amazing album. It was great to finally see you guys play live after not getting a chance in the 90s and the shows we had tickets to in NY getting cancelled due to covid.

    Wow, YotR update! this was unexpected, thanks!. While I like YotR a lot, I remember Jeff Gaber's ephemeral band called The Joy Circuit. They reminded me of Failure, they were also great. I always loved you two guys. Don't know where is he now, apparently making music for films. I'd love to see him again, though it will be easier to see Failure during the next tour. Love!

    Hi Ken. Somehow I found your channel a while back. I was a fan of your band "On." Back in 2000 I heard Soluble Words on 91x and thought it was a really cool track. Me and my sister were such music fanatics back then that when we heard a cool new song on the radio one of us would buy the album. So we went to down to Tower Records and each bought a copy of Shifting Skin. We also saw you live at Canes in San Diego, it was a great show, I think she even met you off stage. It was Sat. June 10 2000, still have the ticket stub. I haven't heard your other bands but definitely want to check them out. Take care man!

    What an incredible show that was in Baltimore last year in June. Best concert I’ve ever been to. Glad to see you’re back on UA-cam Ken!
    PS: So fucking cool you’re planning to re-release some Year of The Rabbit stuff, in my opinion it’s some of your most underrated work.
