LB is fucking awesome. I got to hang with them for an hour or so when they came here about 2 or 3 years ago. Really fun show, I look up to them as musicians.
This new track doesn't sound like they're doing much different structurally, but that's okay I suppose.

I'm liking the production on this new album. I was wondering if they'd reel back their crazyness and balls-to-the-wall style, but no, they did not. They just made the drums sound bigger and the bass more precise instead of a wash. I dig it a lot!
Bummed I'm gonna have to miss their Denver gig though. They're on the 24th, but Sleep is on the 19th and I already bought tickets for that. Plus I have my college recital to play the 28th. I can't lose all my hearing before that haha...

Metz is definitely fun live, both times I've seen them have been great.

Buy ear plugs! The swimimg ear plugs they sell at drug stores for $4 work and there's not much of a reason not to get them.

I work with live sound doing lighting and rigging as a job, so these were recommended to me when sitting front of house. They've been great so far!

I had those and they never made a tight seal on my right ear for more than 20 minutes it was so annoying.

Same for me.
My moulded ear plugs confirm that I have weird ear canals. Had to get them remoulded to stop them falling out after a while.
Bought some dubs and they actually keep a good seal, even in my right ear. Give them a crack - they're pretty cheap.

Yeah I saw you post those and the design caught my eye. I'll have to give then a shot. Any comparison in sound between the Dubs and the Etymotics? Or do they both sufficiently make things quiet?
