Braveyoung got about 15 minutes in, The Body started to turn on his amps, got to collab for all of about 3 minutes, and then all of the circuits on the stage blew. So they scrambled really quick and got everything (except for the mic) back up and running, so The Body just did a solo thing for about 5-10 minutes with the dude screaming until he was blue over his amps. You could hear him CLEAR over his amps, it was crazy
Yeah, when I saw them play, the PA was PLENTY LOUD, but when you were up front, you could still tell that most of the vocals you were hearing there were coming straight from the stage. Even more crazier was the tone of his vox... it really sounded like a feral animal being strangled in the woods. Possibly the most disturbing vocals I've ever heard.
hahah YES. I would NOT have expected that at all from him. His rig is really interesting too. I was talking to him about it, and before one of his rack units died, he only used an MXR Micro Amp to boost everything into oblivion. He said all of his rack gear was in feedback loops and that it was just a giant landslide once a boost hit it. When I saw them with Braveyoung, it looked like the only pedal he was using was a RAT with bass mods. He also had a Peavey 2x12 combo ontop of his 2 8x10's, I think it was a Mace pushing 120 watts, right next to his ear. Insane

Yeah, when I saw them, he had a couple of PA heads in the mix, too - not sure if they were for the guitars or for the noise loops, but all in all it was quite the bodyslamming experience.
Seriously. Awesome two-bass+drums postpunk/post-rock/post-whatever/riff-rockin' jamz. And their supa-tight 6-song EP is downloadable for whatever you wanna pay. GET IT NOW!!!! NOW I SAY!!!!!
