Those who never had the opportunity to see this band perform live will never truly understand. On several occasions over the years, I have attempted to explain to others, what Brainiac was like, playing live. Always digging for adjectives that were close to the description, but never finding the perfect description, I usually end up at, "I don't know man, it was like nothing else before, and nothing else after. It was something else, something really, really special....really special."
thewhippetbeans Hi. Where/When in the UK did you see Brainiac? I am an fan/archivist and am trying to collect any information/material from live shows. Love Brainiac.
he supported beck on his odelay tour around 97? I saw him at the mayfair in Newcastle, was an incredible performance which I had recorded on a dictaphone, but its long lost :(
My boyfriend and I were at this show. I was 21 years old. When we left the show, we knew we witnessed something so magical. Thanks for the memories and thanks for the upload! 🖤
Such an amazing band, way ahead of their time. Heard of them from a BBC show Trent Reznor hosted where he acted as the disc jockey. He stated he borrowed a lot of from Brainiac as far production on With Teeth and referenced them the whole recording process.
@@NuevaRomay from a production standpoint especially mic placement techniques, textured and overall influence it is there. Does it sound like it songwriting wise? No And yes after year zero/with teeth NIN was over. Atticus Ross ruined that group.

Man, I loved these guys and was really holding my breath for what was coming next - "Electro Shock for President" was such a huge leap forward while not sacrificing... ANYTHING, really - a major shame that Timmy died.
My last time seeing them, Hey Shannon, Jimmer , Ian and Eric and the cute girl who bought me drinks from city beat. We will always have these memories, so happy for them.Your bands favorite band..RIP
Thank you for posting this. Great to see a show in Ohio. One of Touch and Go's best bands...a personal favorite of mine. This version of Fresh New Eyes is haunting. Used to play them on my college radio show in the late 90's.
Saw them several times at Canal Street Tavern. Dayton was blessed with many really talented bands. There were none like Brainiac, yes, but we also had dEMENTIA pRECOX, The Breeders, The Obvious, The Pure Plastic Tree, and so many others. There needs to be a Dayton scene documentary.
UA-cam is best thing about technology. Watching cars in background drive by. 23 years ago. I want to just teleport into the time/vid/place. I saw alot cool/great bands fr 91-97. But wouldve made sure to of seen twice as much if I could go back.
Thank you so much, I am obsessed with Brainiac. When new (unseen by me) footage surfaces, I can't help but jizz my pants. Especially with Electro-Shock material.
Hopefully this doesn't offend but what is being looped at the end? It sounds like he's saying "I'm dead already" which is crazy considering what happened.
Shot in the dark but if anyone that was at this show reads this, please let me know if you remember the “rapper” that opened this show. He just kind of mumbled and would ask random strangers to play with him; he even went to the Subway next door and grabbed some guy to join him on stage. Hilarious!
I was outside the building, sort of listening to the show and I thought they sounded like experimental jazz fusion occasionally interrupted by Pop songs.
I was at their show at the Garage, London, in May/June 1997, possibly one of their last shows. Perhaps the tracklist was very similar to this one. I think they started the same way. Unique band.

Saw them several times at Sudsys , man they were special no denying it
They're sexy
Saw them in London earlier this year. Man. Fucking FANTASTIC. Obviously, no Timmy Taylor, but even still, they were just earth shattering.
I was lucky enough to see brainiac in the uk, feel honoured, influenced so many bands since, rip Timmy

Brainiac did indeed support Beck for a half dozen UK shows in May 1997. I'd love to get my hands on any audio/video.
@@griffinhamill761 I saw them on that tour at the Garage (London).
i was 14 when i first listened to brainiac in 1997 but i never got to see them live, thank you for posting this!

yes sir! btw, you know where we can find that BBC program?
sadly With Teeth sounds nothing like Brainiac, and it was the record that made me stop lstening to NIN for quite a few years

check out the demos on the Attic Tapes album. A few are from the six demos that leaked from pre production on the final album
@@adderon Thank you!
@@adderon I desperately need to hear a proper recording of Forget Everything!!
God bless this angle. Sincerely, a drummer
ON THE TOP OF THE UNDERATED WORLD
hurts me endlessly that i never had a chance to see them live. these guys were on another level.
best band in the fucking universe.

Oh!
Hanging with these guys in 1993 ....we had no clue how big these guys would be. R.I.P. Timmy.
Like The Fall from early 80's. Absolute f'ing genius. Just amazing
tim taylor the king
saw them in 96 and was so hoping to see them again thebest
Incredible....sigh.
thanks for uploading This!
Such a great band.... Inspiring stuff
The unreleased track is called Crash, or it was on the set list when I saw them.
I loved seeing these guys at the Union in Athens, Ohio.
I wanna live in the dimension that Timmy lived to be 150. 😢
16:57 was called "Give Me a Myth"
Wow
Hopefully this doesn't offend but what is being looped at the end? It sounds like he's saying "I'm dead already" which is crazy considering what happened.
That sounds exactly like what he's saying. Super depressing.
Timmy was the best example of a frontman. They're better live
Shot in the dark but if anyone that was at this show reads this, please let me know if you remember the “rapper” that opened this show.
He just kind of mumbled and would ask random strangers to play with him; he even went to the Subway next door and grabbed some guy to join him on stage. Hilarious!
Did you find him??
@@davidlopez-rs1hpUnfortunately, no
16:57 is also known as 'Crash'
RIP TT
best.
i was there
I was outside the building, sort of listening to the show and I thought they sounded like experimental jazz fusion occasionally interrupted by Pop songs.
Tim's dad was a jazz musician.
I was at their show at the Garage, London, in May/June 1997, possibly one of their last shows. Perhaps the tracklist was very similar to this one. I think they started the same way. Unique band.
Good, but not so unique. Nation of Ullysses was here first.
They should've been across the street at Bogarts playing to a sold out crowd :)
No way. I saw them at Sudsy's. It was perfect - possibly the greatest show I've ever seen... It would have been completely different at Bogart's
Bogarts is terrible venue with bad sound.
Tyler bashin like Drozd
or vice versa...
Amazing and crazy rare! Its not even on the brainiac archive site. I can only hope more video surfaces from them.
