      I knew of them in their early days but I totally missed this release so it goes both ways! On the odd chance you haven't yet, make sure to check out the first album Since I Left You, their initial masterpiece.

    This is certainly one of the most artistic band to have come out over 20 years. Seriously, wonderfully dynamic sound and videos style off the charts. I listen to them quite often just to vibe.

  • @NauticalTiger
    @NauticalTiger 11 років тому +78

    The original is one of my favorite songs. This is a great remix that keeps the spirit of the H & C version and brings out the inherent funkiness of the song. About time the Avalanches came out of retirement.

    It must be my age. Why I am so late in discovering this music? When I was 13 good music just came to me so easily. Nowadays I only hear crap, unless I really search for better, like this. Sorry that is a sad comment but a glad discovery for me.

    I'm getting very strong RAGE at 3am in the 90's vibes. Your brain is a bit mush, and just can't compute what it just witnessed.
    For those not Aussie, RAGE was the main music video show, airing from usually midnight on Friday and Saturday, with the top 40 chart starting at 6am. Practically unrated, broadcast some eclectic stuff. A staple of late night gaming sessions, housepartys, comedown from a night at the club on biccies. A cultural icon.

  • @B3Rbns

    Some of the vocals remind me of David Byrne, and maybe it's the black and white imagery, but, Morrisey.... old school stuff. Oh, I see this was remixed from a video from about that day... And beyond that, this brings me close to the Sun Dance ceremony, and a dozen other spooky things, really old school. I think that because the work is brave, and complete that I like it's hero so much. I've never heard of the Avalanches until today, and I'm glad there's a 2016 album to check out.

      I think the closest you could get would be some Depeche Mode content, some King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizzard stuff, the specific music video for "Secret Enchanted Broccoli Forest", and some of the fan videos which exist for some Boards of Canada music such as Turquoise Hexagon Sun.
