NoteAnother powerful Undertow show played to a sparse French audience. And another opener for Fishbone. I think these guys are still touring and just put out another live album (2005). Not sure if they have plans for a new studio release though. Good band. Anyway …

Danny’s snare sounds like a gunshot blasting the backbeat here. Adam’s guitar is mixed slightly back, but everything else is balanced. And this is another hell of a recording by Stephane. Rich, smooth and in your face. Much like a good Guinness. Listen to Paul slapping that (b)ass on Sober. That’s the way it’s supposed to be played, and no one will convince me that Justin plays it better. Everyone is playing well here, especially Maynard whose vocals + reverb are inspiring. His screams on Opiate (“to rape you”) and Bottom (“dead INSIDE!”) can’t be missed. These finally get the crowd off their asses to cheer as they walk off stage.
