my parents will be delighted to have an ilxor in their midst
actually by then I really should have a place of my own. but this is moot because for ATP you just rent a cabin at butlins and that is your home

Shit, I was interviewing Efrim recently ahead of the SMZ tour and thought it inappropriate to ask about a Godspeed! reunion. Didn't see this coming at all. Silly me, I could have got a scoop!

They're just OK, I wanted to love F#A#(Infinity symbol) but eventually gave up on it.... crescendo after crescendo after crescendo just doesn't really make a good record to me. And I like Mogwai/Explosions In the Sky....

wow, very exciting. i doubt i'll make it to ATP, but here's hoping they play some other dates.
― borntohula, Friday, 9 April 2010 04:04 (fourteen years ago) link
they are playing "nine american cities" and so far nothing else is even being planned

To me that sounds like the perfect record. And aren't EitS just Godspeed copyists?
Wow, I never saw this coming and am almost as excited about this as I am about Swans. Just hoping one of those European dates is near Vienna, cos I won't make ATP.

There'll be other British and European shows as well, they say.

eh, I like the idea that ATP were so grateful and starstruck by getting Godspeed to play for them that no-one had the chops to tell them that they'd spelled the name of their festival wrong on their cute hand-drawn flyer

I've been meaning to put up a director's cut on my blog. There's not a huge amount more, but Efrim in full flow is pretty interesting.

Gah was hoping Swans would do the December ATP.
Seems pretty wrong that I love Swans/Angels of Light but I struggle with Godspeed. Time for another try..
― Davek (davek_00), Friday, 9 April 2010 13:32 (fourteen years ago) link
that would have been pretty ok too, but gira would prolly make it a little too much "minehead's alright if you like freak-folk"

Doesn't seem wrong to me, in that GYBE are basically very derivative of late period Swans and it's always best to drink from the source. Me I like 'em both.

Probably one of the worst bands ever, only to be "topped" later by Sigur Ros (and probably all of the other horrible sister bands of theirs, like Do May Say Think et al).

Taking boring to whole new levels of teenage dramatism. A lot like their predecessors in militaristic drudgery, Savage Republic--"crescendo after crescendo after crescendo" is pretty accurate, musically, but I guess I was also rubbed the wrong way by how their fans seemed to think what they were doing was 'serious art' and a new high in artistic/emotional expression.
