Two awesome bands from San Diego we saw together this weekend, at a free event sponsored by a new upcoming car company(?!), not sure how widespread their appeal will be on this board, but here goes:

Astra
2012/11/10 Roxy Theater, Hollywood, CA
http://wtrns.fr/q_wgQwXQ1fWjWHZ

These guys are one of the leading lights in the nouveau prog scene. Often-but-not-always-heavy, psychedelic prog rock of the highest order, vocals with long instrumental passages. Two albums with Roger Dean-evoking cover art by Arik Roper. Several members are multi-instrumentalists; on stage they have a (digital) mellotron, two moogs, some other keyboard, & double neck guitar, in addition to guitar, drum and bass. No floor length sequin capes, yet. This one is four long songs stretched over a fourty minute set. Jim O'Rourke would probably dig them based on his publicly acknowledged affection for Yes, if you need an excuse. Band site with vids to sample: http://www.astratheband.com/fr_news.cfm

Earthless
2012/11/10 Roxy Theater, Hollywood, CA
http://wtrns.fr/YgpHl3K21oaY1zT

Heavy psychedelic instrumental power-trio acid rock shredding into infinity. This set is one continuous jam, a loose medley of a few of their themes strung together with high-octane face-melting high-gain guitar madness for fourty minutes. Here's a nice live promo vid: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v0zdIvUYpn0 Earthless is kind of the equal and opposite band of Earth, in nomenclature and musical style. If they ever played a show together, the universe would explode.

White Hills also played, but we were unimpressed, and I had to leave to fulfill some lab protocols while my wife stayed for Enslaved, whom she reports were good but I did not have a chance to record them.

When we saw these two play together in San Diego a while ago they had a liquid light show with 5 overhead projectors going by Operation Mindblow (http://www.youtube.com/user/operationmindblow), not this time though. It's West Coast Psychedelic Rock, you're goddamn right there should be a liquid light show! Some of the vids in the links reflect that, I havn't watched them all the way through, I think we were at some of those shows so these may or may not contain footage of our faces melting off...

As always, I can't get torrents to work, so upload this to dimeadozen for me if you feel enthusiastic.

Thanks for the Earthless show, I love those guys. I was at the Roadburn concert that they released on LP and it was mindblowing. I'll up the shows you've uploaded on DaD and give you full credit of course.

Thanks for the reshare of D3, I'll upload it to Dime in a couple of days
Once I've grown tired of listening to my gy!be recordings which is NEVER :D
Check out BBF3 of 5/11/2012 if you're even remotely interested in this band. And play loud!

You are both welcome. If I have made just one stoner rock fan (and one instrumental post rock fan) happy, then I have done my job.

Notes:

Astounding show from the Canadian saxaphone player Colin Stetson. Probably more well known for being a back up musician for the likes of Arcade Fire or Bon Iver, his solo record contains music that was previously unimaginale through a saxaphone. One of only a few recordings I've listed to almost as soon as I was outside the door of the venure, it was that good. The sound in the Twisted Pepper is up to its usual high standards and I think this might be one of the best sounding tapes I've done with the Edirol.

Can't get more of a fresher upload than that. Thanks for the other Stetsons as well duclo!

damn! that bari is as tall as he his!

It's actually a bass sax, they're bigger (and rarer) than a baritone.
