I'm a big BRMC fan, learned of them on RP. Recently attended one of their shows and I was really disappointed... crushed, in fact. While it was fun to finally see them and experience their live raw energy, it was maybe the loudest concert I've ever been to. So loud that it was hard to hear the music, much less hear the vocals or even discern the individual  instruments. A lot of people left early, way early.



I had the  exact same experience.
Saw them in Portland, OR many years ago -- they absolutely rocked it.

Long time Call fan here having caught many shows on East Coast and in their prime Santa Cruz stomping grounds. They were loud when they needed to be, but the 1812 Overture episode was a totally unique and historic case. I know that Michael is proud of Robert.
Love the guitar work.

Still reminds me of some of Frank Zappa's guitar licks.

They get that naturally. Worked as a stagehand at a small venue in Louisville when Robert's Dad's Band, The Call came through on the MTV New Music tour when they were promoting Reconciled. They used a somewhat infamous recording of Tchaikovsky's "1812 Overture" by Telarc records (had a warning about how loud it got played as it could damage stereo equipment) to test the PA with. When the cannons kick in there's one blast where you hear a rumbling noise at about 100Hz. That's the crack of the cannon, not the blast itself. The blast was at 6Hz. Obviously didn't hear that blast, just felt a small gust of wind blow through the place. Moments later the University's Physical Plant and Public Safety came screaming in wondering what the hell set off the quick brownout that hit a good part of campus. And yes, they used that PA to nearly those levels most the night.

Seems to be MTV enjoyed making ears bleed in the 80's. Also worked Living Colour's Vivid tour stop and the telarc headphones we used on the spots were absolutely useless for all the noise.

Doesn't this sound like Angel by Massive Attack? Or vice versa.
Good tune! Thanx RP!

Sorry, but for me the Smithereens are not even in the same ballpark as BRMC.  My guess is BRMC would be insulted if someone said that!

Long live rock-n-roll !!
BRMC was one of the loudest live shows I've ever seen.  Very small venue. Great show
Jeez, I rushed over to crank this up - I really dig 'Alice in Chains'.... but it's not. Ha!
Some songs are just best played loud. Like this one.
I'm so glad that one day many years ago, I was searching for Dandy Warhols music and found BRMC. 
Why wasn't this on my radar in 2001?? So good.

RP running in the background. Had to check and see if it was something I didn't know by Love and Rockets

ALWAYS take ear plugs. You can still hear the show, just without the pain.
I would have been deaf by the age of 18 if I didn't.

This song rocks hard. It's musically sensuous. A real sizzling live-wire of perfection here! This righteous jam made me a fan. Thanks, RP!

I have grown to love BMRC. While I can't get enough of Pink Floyd, Old Alice Cooper, Genesis, P-tree and the like, BMRC has that raw, not overly produced almost garage band sound that is simply awesome! Once again RP has cost me more money.
Had to bump to an 8 love that guitar! {#Bananajam}

I find nothing redeeming in this cut.

yes and how man! this fuckka rocks, 10
Man, when the guitar first kicks in, WOW! and then when the other one comes in and they jam together, WHOAH!  I fell in love with this when it first came out and I have to admit it STILL rocks me mighty well every time I hear it...  Sonic bliss!

I agree...I had to look to see who this was. Most times BRMC is sort of ho-hum (to me at least).
Nice!!

Red eyes and tears no more for you my love I kill
No more kill, no more kill, I'm in love

The frontman for BRMC (Robert Levon Been) is the son of Michael Been.  He tours with them as their sound engineer, 

You may remember him from the group "The Call".  They had hits in the 80's such as - Everywhere I Go, I Still Believe, & Let the Day Begin.


I like this.  Reminds me of Love & Rockets. {#Motor}
Wish I had remembered my iPod on this trip I'm on to the East Coast (bonehead). And wish I had this on my iPod for my impending workout. Very catchy, right to the end.

The show is awesome. I just saw them in Atlanta last week. I have been to 7 of their shows and this was the best one yet.

They remind me of The Cult. Only in so much as I generally don't like the type of music (whatever you call it), but I do like The Cult and BRMC, or at least the two BRMC songs I've heard so far on RP.
Oh yeah! Gotta crank this one!~

This is the first BRMC cut I ever heard; introduced me to them years ago - been a hard core fan ever since. . .
Same thing for me.

I love it...these guys keep on where the Love & Rockets/Peter Murphy/Bauhaus/Tones On Tail/Dalis Car left off!

Wow, HHHHOOOTTT!! RP never ceases to amaze me, I swear I learn about five new bands everyday. This is my favorite today . Great tune! 8/10
Oooooh!
I just picked up their new CD 2 days ago, it's a blast, and now I find out that they have recorded other music.This is super-cool!
Before the Killers there is Black Rebel Moto Club. Love this Band Jeff
"Love is Spooky" like ahhh, hmmmm... "Witchy Woman"? Not bad... in the right environment & mood.
Ear perker song.

Yup...good..really good...really really goood I guess I like it Huh?
this band is cool. I really expected them to blow up by now. Selfishly, I am glad they haven't.
The layered guitars always remind me of The Stone Roses. These guys definitely hold their own though. This is one of the rare albums that I can listen to from beginning to end and really love every song. Too bad nobody cares, other than the fact WE can still see these guys in tiny little clubs.

HUH ?? Rather Bauhaus/Love and Rockets.
Yeah, Bauhaus...that's the first thing that came to my mind.
I almost feel compelled to give this a 10 just for the kick-ass name of this band.
Yeah, these guys are good, I like their other album better, tho, a lot more rockin' and melodic, not quite so dark and heavy.

Yep. This is why I like it. Good rockin' groove with an "alternative" touch.

Good stuff. Earns the segue from Zep.
