    I still remember finding this band in 2006, only because the singer of my then favorite band Tool, Maynard James Keenan, thought them to be smth like the most interesting band of that time. Thanks for that, after 20 years their debut is still amazing, and Plantlife & Here Comes Everybody still my absolute favs.

I’m not comparing her to anyone. she suits the band very well. autolux is a very hypnotic and understated band with flourishes of noise and Karla punctuates and accentuates those aspects perfectly. i can name a dozen drummers in the same genre from bigger acts that don’t contribute nearly as much to my enjoyment of their albums.

      @@shugobhastudios i wasn’t comparing before but then i did for clarity. and i said a dozen. to rattle some off the top of my head, i think Ringo Deathstarr, Astrobrite, Drop Nineteens, Chapterhouse, Airiel, Catherine Wheel, Fleeting Joys, LSD and the Search for God, Pale Saints, and even Medicine get less out of their drummers than Autolux does, on their first two albums in particular. a lot of that is stylistic to be sure, but my point stands. Listen to Audience No. 2 and youll hear how much the drums carry that song from a filler track to something memorable.

    @darkd0g3 are you fking kidding me?! that breakdown is one of the best breakdowns ever! the moment that bass kicks in it's pure bliss, you're up in the sky. And then they add the sexy, almost cruel, lyrics "shut your mouth" until it burst down into busting that chord and then the spacey outro. I agree it doesn't come on that well in this performance, but you should check the cd version, I've been spacing out of my mind to this track for years. Bottomline, this song IS perfect

      @mywhychromosome 6 років тому +1

      THIS is why I think the first album has infi itely better production for them than the later 2...on "FP", they used T-Bone Burnett, who talked them out of their intended method of doing everything very methodically, piece by piece, and convinced them to go for capturing their live sound in the room without a lot of artificial layering/punch ins. After the 1st record, he was gone, and so was that philosophy. Still amazing live though

    • @Charlyfromthenuclearcity
      @Charlyfromthenuclearcity 6 років тому +2

      Man, amazing comment. Indeed the production on their first album is totally perfect, as an engineer I often use it as a reference. Also their first record was mixed by Dave Sardy who is quite an amazing mix engineer ! :)
      I don't really enjoy their later releases, maybe the "live" factor is the reason.

      I know this was 5 years ago, so the chance you are still looking for the answer is quite Slim, but that swirling Distortion noise that opens and continues for a while is coming from Eugene's Bass through some sort of noise pedal. If you notice, right as he comes in with the vocals he leans forward and takes his fingers off of the base and the noise Fades out
