yes.

I've been listening to them since The Cat and The Cobra and saw them last year at the Intonation festival. I think LSF was the best act of the entire weekend. "The Sweat Descends" remains one of my favorite hatefuck songs of all time.

Yes, you can get a witness. They're a great live band, too. One of my favorite show moments was an encore they did with !!! that devolved into 5+ minutes of making animal sounds and pounding on bongos with the lights off (except for a few flashlights).

I really love some of their stuff, but have never enjoyed a complete album. I'd say they are a better live band.

Yup. Good band, great live band.

I think I may have already told this story here, but when I saw them in March the highlight was watching Tim abseil down a 12ft wall using only the mike cord and some small shrubbery as leverage, landing a metre in front of me.

I love that they bring it live every time

'who rocks the party, that rocks the body?'

:twisted: :rawk: :twisted: :rawk: :twisted: :rawk: :twisted: :rawk:

Les Savy Fav are probably my favorite band right now, and i've found myself appreciating Go Forth and Rome a ton lately. I'm now convinced that Go Forth is actually better than Inches, after repeated heavy listens of both.

I saw them a couple of months ago, and this sums the evening up pretty well:

Could anyone PM me a YSI of The Sweat Descends and Yawn Yawn Yawn off of Inches? I thought I had it in my collection, but I can't find them.
