- The Church Live @ Emo's. SXSW 2015.
The Church is a unique band that finds itself cherished as a bona fide legend in the ARIA Hall of Fame while remaining a virtual enigma to the world that knows its name. But maybe that's no more remarkable than the mystery that continues to unfold within its own ranks.
the church's accidental signature tune, Under The Milky Way, is like a lighthouse on the brink of a continent forever to be discovered: 25 albums over 35 years and countless diversions that have almost destroyed them a dozen times, yet always reaffirm a mutual commitment to an uncompromising and unparalleled act of creation.
At this stage of the journey, FURTHER/ DEEPER seems both unimaginable and the only option on their endless quest from chaos to resolution. It's an album of breathtaking new vistas and intense emotions, of sinister black caskets and gorgeous caverns of light, a work born of immense struggle and effortless expression.

I have been a Church fan since "The Blurred Crusade" which is one of the most under rated albums of all time....They have not lost anything over all these years......Just wish that the whole world could appreciate how good they are....
There is just something timeless and ethereal about this band. The real deal. 35 years and no looking back. Long may they reign.
+Moo01100 YES! YES! and YES!!!!!!!!!!!!
So timeless...
Wow! So cool! Steve Kilbey sexy as
THE CHURCH WILL TAKE YOU TO YOUR OWN PERSONAL SPACE .
'You took a piece of my heart
And I don't know why
No I don't know why'
Some of the simplest yet profane and insanely complex lyrics from one of the most under rate bands on the face of the earth; Australian artist The Church.
Laurel Canyon. This song is a masterpiece.
The only band that continues to put out consistently great albums. Their catalog is unparalleled in terms of diversity. I would say The Church have actually put out better and better records with age. They're a different kind of band, and I'm glad I've been listening to them since '84 when a friend gave me one of their albums to listen too. Huge Fan, ever since. MWLDI is, IMO, their Best Album. Hope to they continue to carry on for at least another 20 years. :)
That's 'Man Woman Life Death Infinity' for the old timers who haven't caught back up with the more recent stuff yet. ;-)

Arthur Miller
correction: "Is This Where You Live" is actually from the debut album, Of Skins and Heart. (I must have been thinking of that other early-Church epic, "Life Speeds Up".) I still love this band as much as when I first discovered them in 1988., their music just never gets old for me.
Art Miller thank you for posting this listing / links
bless your little heart
@@artmiller1022 Thanks.
One of the best bands on the planet- love it!!
As an Aussie approaching 60 I can truly vouch for how great this band was (& still are) in those heady days of the 80s. Saw them a number of times in Adelaide & they were amazing live. Never forget seeing them out at The Bridgeway Hotel on the tour after the release of TBC. They were & still are "all class"
Ahh.. Memories. Caught these guys in Portland, Oregon 1990. The venue had the first row etc. seats back about about 20 feet from the stage for standing/dancing. I was 32years old amongst a much younger audience. Danced the entire show. Awesome time and music✌️🤍🕊️.. 🎶Is this where you live?" 🎶
Favorite band of all time. Incredible to be able to see this from my chair.
I was at this show. What a night. Great songs and performance, with superb sound. The Church never disappoint.
Wow!! The Church is such an awesome band, but they are so underrated...
The Church are an amazing band. Their great catalog of songs tell stories and create a sonic atmospheres of places and images. One of my favorite bands of all time. SO GLAD...Steve, Peter, Tim and now Ian are still creating and playing live. Tremendous music that lasts and lives. Keep it up guys.
Couldn't agree more!
+Eric de Forest Unquestionably Eric! They are masters!
+Eric de Forest ...What's great, is I am finally getting to go see them live and doing the meet & greet in April on the 14th at The Birchmere in Alexandria, VA. I missed them 3 times since the Starfish tour in '88 and so looking forward to talking with, Steve and...well, really all of them. They are supposed to be playing the Blurred Crusade and some of Further Deeper & a few selected classics...very similar to this above concert at SXSW. I am pretty stoked.
+Eric de Forest Glad to see you there last night Eric -
'twas a stellar show!
Jim G. (the guy in the black velvet jacket)
Yes...It was awesome. Nice to meet a bunch the other "VIPS" as Steve said. : ) Now that I have finally seen them after so long...I can't wait to see them again. Great guitar prowess and interplay between Peter and Ian on so many of the songs.
Like Ian, miss Marty but " you took " showcases ( for lack of better word ) how GOOD Peter is on guitar, a talent personified. Humble and Brilliant.
i love knowing, through these kinds of gigs, the Church finds new YOUNG fans to keep it going... thank God!!!
I heard this band live in Chicago at House of Blues. I honestly did not know a live band could sound that good. The sound quality was shimmering perfection. Indeed, the live soundboard guy was to be praised, but the band rose to the occasion. Kilbey is a pro through and through.
+Chad Cooper He usually is but not here.
I saw the Church live in the 90's at Curtin University. They sounded amazing. It really changed my opinion of the band.
Always have love this band. hypnotic melodies and pure vocals layered over the canvas of their creative imaginations.
Reptile, Im Almost With You, and Unguarded Moment are the best CHURCH tunes
THIS YEAR WAS THE BEST SXSW EVER..I SAW MEW AND I SAW THE CHURCH IN BETWEEN I HAD A BLAST.
LEGENDS, True fucking legends.
truth
This cajun girl has ALWAYS been a huge fan! I've been in 💘 with S.G. since I was 17.
My god what a band. Unreal.
amazing band. amazing definitive set. peter koppes is one of my favorite guitarists.
Wow. Church fan since Early 80's. Seen them many times. Just keep getting better.
Hello all, been a church fan for years I miss Marty for he is the one who held the band together threw steves little problem for 20 years where he missed a show in the city nyc and was in lock up thanks to Marty the show went on without steve and it was very good not the mysterious church but enlighting love ya Steve look good latelybest regards,the vez
why aren't these guys aren't a bigger deal? w/ the immense influence post-punk has had on countless post-2000 bands, the fact that they're still around and making good new music ought to mean more, i think. read their lyrics sometime. their songs weren't as obvious and in your face as the cure or u2, but the songs are beautiful, truly poetic, and original. what else do you want?
My favourite Australian band. I brought my first vinyl at 14, it was 'Of Skins and Hearts' & saw them live numerous times in my teens & twenties. Total poetry.
brandonedgecovers they weren't as in your face because they weren't as big as u2 or the cure In the 80s. but under the milky way should have done better than it. that was the song that should have been in peoples faces but the band weren't big enough
They are regarded as a sort of Gothish 80s pop band. People have no idea.
Why aren't they a "bigger deal"? Because some bands like The Church don't want to play that "popularity" game, which the mainstream music industry orchestrates in order to control bands and to siphon endless $$$ from if they get "big". Cause some bands focus more on the music rather than spreading themselves thin in order to attract a bigger and bigger audience. Other bands that should've/would've/could've been "big" but weren't cause they didn't play "The Game"?:
The Chameleons
Asylum Party
The Fixx
The Sound
Kitchens Of Distinction
Clan Of Xymox
...and many more aside from these examples...
Loved The Church the first time I heard them back in the 80's and they're still just as amazing and sound exactly the same! :)
thx for all Steve, Marty & Peter - you made my youth
GOTTA LOVE AUSTRALIAN BANDS DURING THE 80s . A TOTAL MTSTERIOUS SOUND.
I first saw this band in 1983 at the Mean Fiddler in NW London. Blurred Crusade tour.
Love watching them Live after all these years listening to their tracks
What a beautiful and pure performance. My day feels brighter now.
I saw them play a little hole in the wall back alley place called The Baschkapp outside Frankfurt, Germany in '91 or so. Little small joint maybe 250 people capacity place. The aura of The Church filled the place with sounds of Reptile and almost like you could see past the Milky Way that night!!
@@thomasfunk4853 I was there, too! It was such a great atmosphere. Marty, after the concert, having a beer and a talk with some of us at a round bar table.
Genius from the heart, mind and body. The Church evoke all your inner mysteries. The Church are a gift in this life. I feel blessed to have livedI inn this sphere of experience with the guys and their expression. I appreciate this moment.
Love the Church! Very talented band I am so stupid for missing this show.
The big guy on the left taught my two nephews guitar in Noosa . He was nice . He was also 6feet 5 .
Drew Baby Drew Peter Koppes, cool dude
Thanks ,he was living in coolum i think in qld
Steve is an underrated bassist. One of my favorite elements of the band.
What a blistering opener with Is This Where You Live
With all respect to Ian huang i still miss mwp great show great band
As a musician and a guitar player in bands all my life and still performing mind you, I am humbled by there music and there killer prowess … Love you guys!!!!
I just discovered this band about three months ago, wow, they are great! I am enjoying them greatly!
Super! Oh, where my 25 years ((Classics, time does not dominate over eternal values
Still on a Church high...saw them last Saturday. They sounded great. Steve's voice so much better and mysterious this time around. Maybe it was the venue but the sound quality was excellent.
Such an unbelievable band - and the song "Miami" - after all these years they write my new favorite song. Thank you Steve, please never stop.
I saw them play in Petaluma, CA on this tour and it was a brilliant show!!! Awesome band!!! Thanks guys for kicking ass all of these years!!!
One of the best band ever.
I also caught them on their Starfish tour, remember Safari being played to an empty stage and then the boys appearing to just simply blow our minds , damn what a night.Still love em, but as commented below miss the Rickenbacker master...peace from the state of mind that's Texas
This was freakin great - wow!
This was freakin great - wow!
Everything about this band is amazing. Each individual is a iron clad link in the whole of this group. What a hard working legendary group. I’m bummed I haven’t seen them live. Thanks for this upload !!!
Peter's solo at the end of "Reptile"= mind blowing! 1:03:19 (Very Slithery)
Into my Top 5 bands list !
This is so cool, I just love it, they have aged some, but, that makes them better.
Laurel Canyon brought me to tears...I want to be wherever that is...
one of a kind the church !!!!
MIAMI WHAT A GEAT SONG LOVE IT
A band without peer.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
This band ....This band .... This band offers .... what does it offer to you?

NOTHING COMES CLOSE KEEP IT REAL STEVE LOVE YA GREAT GUY AND ALSOPETER SUCH A NICE GUY MET HIM AT THE CITY WINERY IN N.Y.C. IN 2010BEST TO YOU ALL THE VEZ
Totally amazed by this band’s creativity. Unlike so many of their peers The Church is not a nostalgic act.
Perfect song choices; all in such a good mood. Increases the beauty.......
What a standout performance of The Disillusionist!
I've seen the church 12 times
Great love for The Church ❤
I love it how; they got a Michael Stipe doppelganger to play drums, the unabashed Kilbey sentiment, "...this is the best album ever and no one will ever top that.", MPW is awol & that these guys reformed in spite of all of the travails. Glad I caught them for a tenner in North London (the Garage?) about 10 years ago & SK & MWP show at the Borderline just off TCR.
Loveliness from The Church as usual
Wow, haven’t seen them for years. Still brilliant and now with Ian Haug ( not recent I know ) great guitarist!
Nice camera work. Thanks for this.
You lucky guys I have never heard them play this live
Muy buen recital! gran banda!! espero vengan a Buenos Aires algun dia! gracias por compartir!
Great show..really miss MWP though.
o my....never knew they still together , have all their albums
Listen to Further/Deeper. It's fantastic and the band is rejuvenated with Ian.

+Hayden Wittig and the church knob !!!!!!!
THE SAINTS! Hoodoo Gurus! the Atlantics!
Is This Where You Live from the album their first album "Of Skins and Heart" from 1981. Happy churching! Yeah really love the band, followed them since the 80s..
Man! You sound fantastic!
Great band.
Love it!
the church was a great wonderful vessel. She traveled many miles. but she has run aground an apathetic island. evidenced by this live recording. sad but true.
The presentation had some good moments but I really miss the Rickenbacker Master.
Marty Wilson Piper. I wish they could have stayed together just a little while longer.
I saw them for the Starfish tour and it was phenomenal. Then again either for the post Ploog Gold Afternoon Fix or Preist=Aura tour. The shows were really good except for the posers just wanting to hear Under the Milky Way and Metropolis.
Would love to see the SXSW panel interview with David Fricke posted. I just caught the tail end of it when it was being live streamed and it was excellent!

Good night, i love you !
Love 26:25 Steve smiles when he hears drrrn neeh nrr dorhh nerrrr.
This is brilliant! I do have to disagree with Steve about the covers of milky way on youtube. The kids Choir ps22 version of Milky way is gorgeous!
I agree, love that they did that.
you were playing to the future :)
I Love It
Love this band and I agree with many of the comments. I am a completest when it comes to their material. That being said, Steve's voice is so rough in this performance it is hard for me to listen. He may not be the most gifted vocalist but he sounds downright sick here.
I remember when "Block" performed live was memorable; Steve seems to run down as the concert goes on.
Fenomeni
The Churcha band as a Cathedral.
is this the set list for the european tour? is this where you live is still my favourite album track 25 albums on.got a 300 mile round trip to see them in brighton so hope they dont comer on too soon if that is the first track. further/deeper has been on my car stereo continuously for 7 months now. forever growing - cant wait for album#26. shame they had to play under the milky way- not their best single or album but if gets people interested then all to the good
They sound pretty good, but I sure hope they play more songs from "The Blurred Crusade" and "Starfish". I don't know if they play different songs at different places?
The Church | Soon In Portugal
Marty's absence is so huge. I really want to "get over it" but man he's such a big part of this band's sound and personality. I especially hear him being missed on this song. I hate to say it but where's the spark? Tim, Peter & Steve sound great. Ian's a great player. His style is like when Kenny Jones replaced Keith Moon in The Who. Very similar. Still the Greatest Band of all time!!!!
Too dangerous to keep. Too feeble to let go.
Leo Fender would be proud
Would be cooler without all the stupid corporate sponsor logos behind them, but that's what SXSW has become - a place for corporations to try and be cool and "rock n' roll."
Ok, I had to sign in to comment. Who really cares. If I have to look at a Pepsi or McDonald's logo, I'd rather be listening to The Church while doing it than any other band. It's also a paycheck for these guys, who really deserve it.

que paso con marty wilson piper????que lastima ,que pena,son mis heroes
Is this where you live?
Nah, I'm just housesitting for a friend.
I think I preferred The Church when Peter Garrett was their singer!
LOL!
No way!! I know it's important to have a talented dancer on stage to work the crowd, but Iva Davies not only had a prettier voice, he had better hair as well! Once he left it was all downhill from there. Steve Kilbey should have definitely stuck to playing bass.
Is that some of kind of infinite sustain pickup type thing that Peter holds up to his guitar?
It's a Heet Sound Ebow
