Disco Biscuits or Sound Tribe Sector 9

^ :clap: Very nice!!! I think I just blew out the speakers on my computer :laughing: :slight_smile:

tribe is where my heart has always been i have seen more tribe shows than any other band…the biscuits are one sound to me the entire time…i dont enjoy seeing them though i have heard a few shows that were pretty ok from the biscuits…but TRIBE!!!

:laughing: :laughing: :laughing: :laughing: :laughing: :laughing:

I love you, man. Seriously.

:laughing:

Seriously though, you know I love some of their old stuff. In fact, even as late as 2007. Hell, 12.31.07 STS9 used to be one of the most played things on my iPod. :open_mouth: I know, hard to believe from a guy who dislikes electronic music in general. I just remember I saw them at Rothbury ‘08 when they released Peaceblaster and how alienated I was when I first heard that stuff. My theory is that that moment is when they took a serious turn for the worse. And from what I’ve heard of Ad Explorata, the old sound is gone, and it ain’t comin’ back.

Yeah I hear ya, its not for everybody… not every aspect of the band is gonna appeal. But I don’t think its an either-or thing; you should hear some of the new songs they’re writing for the acoustic shows! I’ll PM you a link sometime in the next couple days so you can check it out. :sunglasses:

^Can I get a link, Jay?

I don’t understand tDB at all. They almost come off as a joke band for some reason. I can’t take a band seriously who’s drummer plays only one beat (the “disco” beat, the one with the open hihat on the upbeat) over and over and over and over again with only minor variation. I get that people on a bunch of mahldawg want to dance to the same beat over and over again but to the sober ears, it just sounds meh. To me, their peaks only seem to be defined by the volume and amount of moving around they are doing on stage. The guitar player is pretty good, but everyone else in the band is mediocre city. And the vocals are worse than Phish, which is saying something.

STS9 I can sort of dig. Not much to say about them. They have great grooves.

But for me, Lotus beats out both of them.

Sure man. I’m taking longer than expected, though… trying to find a reliable file hosting site now that Megaupload requires registration. I’ll put you on the list, though.

And Adam, good call about Lotus. They put on a killer show and have managed to define their own sound in this so-called “jamtronica” genre. (I agree about Bisco too btw)

if I have my choice, neither!

I’ll take “Neither” for $400, Alex!

well i can now say i have seen both of these bands…at the same show nonetheless…i think my overall attitude towards them is ‘meh’ as many of you have said…let me start by saying i’m not really familiar with any Bisco, I was more familiar with Sound Tribe goin into the show and they were the real reason I got my ticket…I listened to some of The Wind At Four To Fly the day of the show which actually got me a little pumped to be seeing the Biscuits, but I can’t say they really delivered, early in the show I was actually enjoying the jams quite a bit, but after a while i did start to think this is all starting to get repetitive…

As for STS9, I think I’ve decided, yes this will sound weird, I enjoy blasting their music in the car and stuff more than I enjoyed the show itself…I don’t know if their sound is powerful enough for me in an outdoor amphitheater, I wish I had caught them at the Tabernacle cause I think I would’ve enjoyed it much more, also I was at the very back of the lawn, by choice kind of, not because of a sold out crowd or anything…it seems to be true you need to be :crazy: to enjoy it from beginning to end, which isn’t really cool with me…and something that i’ve told Jay is that I don’t understand how exactly they make some of the sounds they are making on stage which means i can’t necessarily fully appreciate the talent involved, so sometimes I would just think how is this really being made? nonetheless, I really enjoy Murph’s sound…so when he laid something good down i was all good…

I am the same way with pretty much all electronic music that I like. Really, that consists of two main artists: STS9 (2007 and older) and Emancipator. I would not go see either of them live, but it can make for really good driving music if I’m in the mood for it.

beams with pride

And yeah Levi, indoors is the way to go for Tribe.

But fwiw, I’ve never been anything more than stoned at a Tribe show and always enjoy them from beginning to end. Like i said, they’re definitely not for everyone, but kudos to you for giving them a shot. :clap:
