back when jeff was still blogging, he posted about this band bound stems. that night we went to see them at mercury lounge, and i was amazed by their live show. i hadn't felt that way in a while. i can't believe i forgot to write about it here.
after posting this 15 second clip of the apes and androids show, i decided to post live 15 second clips from every (good) live show and call it: 15 seconds of awesome. at the bound stems show i took seven 15 second clips (105 seconds of awesome!). none of which i posted because they are all showing up as weird jpg files even though they aren't jpg's. annoying! so you'll just have to go see them for yourselves at mercury lounge on the 21st of october. and in the meantime, here's an mp3 from their upcoming record -- which comes out tomorrow!:
risking_life_and_limb_for_the_coupon.mp3- bound stems
you'll hear wolf parade, modest mouse, and all those usual suspects in there -- but there's also something new about their sound. which is refreshing. ahhh, new. what a concept.
According to Mercury Lounge's website they are playing October 21st. and with Maritime!
