this was a good show. i'm a pussy so i liked the more melodic stuff better, especially that very pavement-y sounding one that the singer thanked the audience for "indulging our pansy" side or something afterward. the heavier stuff is so jesus lizard-y, which can be a good thing or a bad thing, but at this point, in 2004, it's sort of nice to have that kind of thing around. also, the band was very funny, at least from what i could understand. quick on their feet.
 
 army of me was one of the worst bands i've seen in years. it was like i was back in 1996 and they were one of those 4,000 over-stylized completely deriviative "alternative" bands that got major label deals and effectively killed "good alternative" and led us into the woodstock '99 generation. or something like that. in any case, just a terrible band.

First of all, Army of Me was indeed torture. Their lyrics grow more tedious every time I see them. I will go to great lengths to avoid them in the future.
 
 I liked Oceansize a lot. They did some interesting things with the three guitar interplay. I will have to pick up their album. And McLusky was terrific as always. The new stuff is superb live. Falkous reminded me a lot of Frank Black in his delivery this time around. Ferocious and intense. Great show!
