If they ever tour together I’m gonna move with such a purpose, like I mean it this time
Edit: It is time.
On your marks ...
this ^^was an act of god
Get ready
I just saw them last Wednesday omg. The best concert I’ve ever been too I met Charlie the drummer while we were waiting line he offered us water bc we were the first ones there what a nice lad. But literally the the best moment in my life I literally cried during bcnr’s set
So they haven’t lost the power to move since Isaac moved on. Charlie is a sweetheart.
It’s ok Geordie I thought the Nokia lick was funny 👺
Bless
Shoot me a timestamp
Max Van Westerop 4:14
@@totalgarbage2053 big mood. also, fishies
Cyboogie
am i insane or does geordie play the nokia ringtone at 4:13, look around the room to see if anyone noticed, and then his smirk slowly fades in disappointment
ha nice spot
lmao love him
the 'nokia ringtone' is just a fragment from the classical guitar piece 'Gran Vals'
@@LfunkeyA Cool
@@LfunkeyA yes, and
The world’s best and second-best Slint tribute acts finally together.
Not dissing this, tight shit
Every time
Every member left the stage with their dignity in tact this time, however.
I don't get that comparison rlly
@@doomsdaydanceparty7646 I think the main comparisons came from the fact that their first album had a lot of unconventional song structure mixed with spoken word/screaming. Didn't help that it was six tracks long and only one minute longer than Spiderland lol, but yeah they're a LOT more than just a Slint inspired rock band as the meme would imply
this is just straight up free jazz
now you must acquire a taste for _f r e e f o r m j a z z_
Jack Lawlor Zappa would be proud
Total Garbage nice pfp bud
kevin williams thanks
Yeah couldn't agree more !
Really love how they all get low and Lewis is in the middle standing like the god of sax that he is
ik it’s symbolic in a weird and sensible way 😮
6:48 Geordie tweaking and May’s side eye😭😭
Love how much scrutiny these early films get.
you guys realize how lucky we are to have these guys. this is how it mustve felt in the times of king crimson and shit
Exactly! This must be what it felt like to see them live in 74, especially with the improv
@@bwebb90 disliked 😢
Robert Fripp needs to see this
Seriously that part at around 6 minutes sounds like a 70s King Crimson live jam with that Mellotron
@@autismatic Dude 100%. I'm convinced at least two of these members are massive King Crimson fans. I mean that would explain why they're the most interesting band currently!
the bassist of BCNR is the daughter of Karl Hyde so Fripp may very well be in the know, through the chain of connection anyway.
@@mattdrummond3552 Hearing "John L" reminds me so much to Larks Tongue
I mean, Geordie did say that Larks Tongues is his favorite KC album
Originally I was a bit disappointed the drummer from Black Midi (Morgan) wasn't the one playing, but then I realized while watching this that Charlie is also a fucking god (Also, Morgan came on later anyway, so it didn't matter, lol). The future of rock is in good hands.
Best of both worlds! They're collectively a pool of awesome talent.
rock hit a slow point for a while this decade, but this new sound these guys are pushing and pioneering is giving me a lot of hope and especially excitement.
@@steadyrhythms9571 it’s more like experimental jazz at this point.
@@steadyrhythms9571 Rock hit such a slow point that King Gizzard had to release 5 albums just to carry 2017
@@jdg5209 This is an underrated comment
shoutout to timothee chalamet ripping that sax
Better looking by far.
@@LouSmith thimothee chalamet is a wimpy kid while lewis is a beast
Hahahaha
this is what would happen if you had good quality home recording gear in the no wave era
except these lads/lasses can actually play their instruments
@@sameccleston8673 i mean anyne can play an instrument anyway they wanna, if it means loud scratchy noise so be it, if it means technical mathy noise thats cool too
@@saladmancer5662 don't get me wrong, no wave is one of my favourite genres, but evidently only James Chance and his confusions knew their instruments; the whole point for the rest of the scene was to play instruments that you had never before. ill give you that both now and then are both extremely noisy lol
@@sameccleston8673 i think it was more a way to create an alternative to the new wave scene by taking the punk ideals into a less pop more diy direction simular to its roots, but with that more widely experimental edge
@@saladmancer5662 u watched Blank City? if not u should
Something new is starting here, i'm not sure what it is, but it might be what we were all looking for.
Keep listening to these bands.
Jeferson Ramos I think we will.
If you need to listen to something similar, bitches brew by miles davis is a good start
@@N0-0n3 Love this album, funny that you mention it!
This sounds fast and bulbous.
This is definitely post-trap
The sax player can drink a pint after improvising, as a treat
He's multitalented.
All the members of BCNR and Black Midi should get together and start a little league football team.
No! Just no!
*"W-wait, that's the same guys who were just dissed Ed Sheeran right!!?"*
The same
7:00 how tf did Lewis just learn that riff in o.3 seconds
He’s a sax god. Everyone knows that.
THE ANIME CROSSOVER WE NEEDED
But never knew we needed.
It's crazy to think how similar this sounds to some jazz classics and how fresh that sound still is nowadays...
it’s because nobody makes glorious material like this
14:50 man, I'm gonna miss Isaac's presence in the band
rare footage of morgan simpson wearing a shirt
No shirt can contain him when properly unleashed.
doing stuff like this with friends is the most fun I've ever had with music.
If you were doing stuff like this, is there anywhere we could hear it?
Channeling James Chance and the Contortions with that sax.
10:24 is just raw, unfiltered kickassery, god bless the windmill scene
fuuuck the riff on the greeps guitar and lewis sax at 7:15 is so cool
the girl on the keyboard is lowkey a queen
High key
To top off this ensemble collab: Mr Archie Marshall the man himself, King Krule
Yeah! Would love to see that.
Actually got an upload waiting with a guest appearance by Archy. Keep watching ...

captain beefheart’s spirit lives on
That Tim Henson without tattoos looks like a fun person to be around. always smiling
Thank you for capturing for all of us who couldn't see this live!
Thanks for the thanks. You know I love to deliver.
This just makes me more excited to see bcnr in a couple of months, this is incredible
Such a sick night. Cheers for uploading this!
Edward Pulleyn you're welcome.
Absolutely beautiful
I was waiting this day for so long
Thanks man you are a hero
I wonder how big the intersection of Black Country, New Road, black midi, and Hylics fans is. Based off of these two comments, I guess it’s 100%
My pleasure. Sorry it took a while. Had to leave before the end, but it's a good chunk.
@@punkbandOnline I've been meaning to play hylics for a while now. How good is it?
19:58 Geordie playing drums
damn he rips
24:48 Isaac on drums tho
havent you watched Geordie on Drums
dude definitely has talent
this is such a vibe
phenomenal!
never seen matt smile this much, amazing video
Yeah! no pressure. just fun jammz.
good pfp
@@greyscalewoods711 thank you comrade
this is beautiful
damn i need some people to meet up with and jam like this holy shit
When do they stop tuning their instruments?
Never!
Yas, thanks!!
ohoho my god this is what i neeeded
5:23 lewis is fr the stuff of legends
🎷🎷🎷
22:24 Tyson Fury, Anthony Joshua
Reminds me of Henry Cow or other RIO bands. This is great.
YESSS WE NEED THIS SHIT EVERYWHERE
07:00 Sax Player: Ok, we finally playing something 08:13 then his face when he tried to play a solo, haa priceless, the guitar players where good but I think they dont quite understand the silence of their instrument so they can leave space for others, at least till that moment
Very cool very nice
I'm giving birth to JAZZ BEEROOROOBEEROROROOROP BADABUP BIROOP
It was a messy delivery. Nothing that a few months in ICU wouldn't fix
Issac is definetly so often my favourite thing about theis band, but watching this illuminates how much of an outlier he is amongst those musicians. The rest could improv their way to way to jazz infinity, whilst Issac just strums his acoustic and sings milleninal-Dylan-esque verses. It works. Very well. But he mhst have known he didnt really fit with the other members?
Maybe that had something to do with it. Can't be easy surrounded by virtuoso musicians. But then as you say, he brings a whole lot to the party. (just a little late)
Think its slightly unfair to single him out like that. He was the guitarist, sure, but you'd be a fool to disregard the fact his lyrical ability is more or less unparalleled in the current scene. Clearly we can see he lacked the level of musicianship the rest of the band have, but he made up for it and then some with his writing. As good as the musicians are, Isaac was the defining member.
@@quitspogo9027 not sure my pon t was unfair. as mentioned, he is/was my favourite thing about the band. Think you're missing my point though - I'm not doubting him a lyricist, in fact, that's why I like him so much. I still think he must have realised he had different talents when the rest of the band started to jam and improv like we have here... Was only pointing out the contrasting dynamic, not critiquing him at all. Couldn't have been too easy on him and could have been a potential source of internal conflict...
14:50 damn
Cam is not getting enough love in these comments. Guy is a straight killer.
omg bless you
Hell yeah, this is fcking amazing!
Yeah. Shame I couldn't stick around for the rest of it.
we're seeing history being made
That's always true!
@@LouSmith it is, but you know what I mean: seeing this brand new scene evolve around a single venue is great. that's the kind of stuff that gets turned into books!
@@hksards Funny you should say that, and yes I was being a bit flippant. Strangely I knew the first time I saw FWF that this was the seed of something that would swell as it became the zeitgeist. I am starting slowly to compile some of my best images and will be calling on the artists and music lovers who have built this amazing community into what it is to contribute their stories. It's a slow bur, but It's gathering momentum. I will probably run a crowd-funder to get it printed. I have been at it a decade now and The Windmill hits 50 next year, so the timing is right.
What a hero, was an amazing gig
VIBESTREAM EVERYDAY
The sax solo at 3:40 OMGGGGG
biggest crossover event of all time
Until the next time.
bmnr friends forever
Bffbmnr!
Me and Mikey have been waiting for this. Waiting patiently. We were content with hank midi and now me and Mikey have it. And it tastes so good.
Asian Boi I'm happy for you both. :)
Thanks Lou. Great channel.
Good article written about this show in issue 2 of the free quarterly NEWSOUNDS for you UK fans
Yep. I think I even get a mention in it innit.
Can we get Black Midi, New Squid Road?
Black squidi new road
Black Midi, New Squid
As mentioned elsewhere - John Lurie would approve ...
Maybe he does actually approve
Fude they are killing it
Yeah fude for fought
my fucking mind blown away
oh yes
Sounds like an Omar Rodriguez Lopez project. Good stuff!!!
🙏 I'll take your word for it. Not heard anything by him.
you're missing out if you haven't heard the mars volta
@@LouSmith relationship of command is one the greatest albums ever
@@fowlae4414 I must give it a listen.
This is what a stroke would sound like if it were on DMT and within Machu Picchu.
No, if you're inside machu picchu you can only hear flute noises, birds, and los jaivas
A fair bit longer too
Multiple TIAs on DMT maybe.
so weird but i love it
Jazzy. Lots of love for it though
16:35 does the guitar riff here remind anybody else of The Race
🎸🏇🏇
Hi, is there going to be a part 2 with the Christmas songs? Did you record them too? Thanks
Sorry, no. I had to leave before the second set.
@@LouSmith fam cmon
totally remindss me of sivad, miles davis
Me on acid walking through the crowd like O . O
my man geordie with the male pattern baldness
based
really gets me in the feels
All that head wiping
His hair will be dead at 27
Man there just isn't a match for simpson's drumming
Simpson is obviously the frontrunner for this generation's best drummer but Charlie killed it too
The student halls jam from hell
😈👹👿
Ye boi
ive come to realize that this is hectic noise rock version of bitches brew
The absolute pinnacle of British engineering
He said it.
This is jazz
J-a-zed zed.
Everyone @ 5:20: *playing reasonably intensely*
Lewis @ 5:23: *head about to explode*
Any additional joint works from this performance ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Please post LOU
Not from this one. I had to rush home to look after my daughter so I was only there for this section. I'm uploading some more of the covers set they did at Christmas for the Windmill fundraiser.
important
man im tripping balls
Very psychedelic I dig
This is very psychedelic! ruclips.net/video/0frG0x-QztI/видео.html&ab_channel=LouSmith
at 6.10 geordie plays a bit of the solo from slow lol
my most favorite musicians rn all together 🥲 i need more
There's a fair bit of it now.
can't believe that both Matt and Isaac are gone now...
Neither are gone, gone. They may yet surprise/delight us.
14:55
lol :D
Christmas Extravaganza! by black midi, new road (as far as i'm aware)
Part. 1 00:00
Part. 2 19:29
Part. 3 21:38
i was wondering if you had any footage of the show where they played all those christmas songs
or the "black midi, new road christmas extravaganza"
Nah. Had to leave after the first jam. It would've been subject to copyright strikes probably anyway. Getting hard to post stuff.
anyone know the guitar geordie is using?
fret-king.com/elise-593.html
He's using reverend guitars
It's a fret king Elise I do believe
Music equivalent of a full cod lobby
I'm not sure I'm getting that vibe.
@@LouSmith oh just cuz there's a lot of stuff going on at the same time
@@thepansyman2247 I see. Well I agree there is that!
Would never guess that sax player has heard Shabaka
jass
