Well, they were LOUD. Forget the falling asleep thing, no way you could pass out at a show that noisy.
Lots of cool sampling, VERY cool movies, and they sounded incredible. They played Moya, Alberta, Static, a track from Yanqui U.X.O. (not sure which one), Storm, and then East Hastings. 2.5 hour set. Definitely going to remember this one for a long time.
Oh yeah, got a poster and a weird shirt. The shirt doesn't even say Godspeed on it anywhere, it has a long-ass cryptic message on the front and then an eagle carrying a banner on the back. Cool sh*t.

Very nice.

What It Is Impossible Not to Know and What It Is No Longer Permissible To Believe in the United States is kind of a pretentious name.

Arguing whether something is a genre or not is pretentious.

We're on a prog forum, doesn't that pretty much mean we're already pretentious and/or hipster?

Out of convenience, I would probably throw them in post metal too.

Why must you tempt me to even talk about it Matthias? fffuuuuuuu They have more post qualities than anything else....but also have a good black metal influence. Sooooooooo I hear u gaiz leik magma? It's just lava that hasn't escaped the earth yet? What's the big hoopla?
