Spiritualized

ro

I remember hearing about that, Laz!
I’m so glad you got to see it.
I’m still kicking myself for helping a friend move instead of going to a Stooges in-store in 2003.
Well, not really. A friend needs help, you help. But you know what I mean...

ro

Beautiful, thanks suskind!

ro

I know there are a few Dino fans here & many Stooges fans, so maybe they’ll go and enjoy it.

ro

These guys do a terrific show.

ro,

If you need any physical discs burned and mailed, "I'm your man" (so to speak). Let me know what you'd like.

Best,
D.

Wow, yes please and thank you.
Will message you.

I wonder if the words are subject to slight changes from time to time / over time.

Sorry to hear you couldn't make it Ro. Hope you are feeling ok. This might help a little - https://archive.org/details/SpiritualizedLiveInMontreal13april2019 thank you so much xox i've not heard anything from the live shows yet (i'm unable to download big files) so this is a great gift.

Thanks, clewsr!
these are beautiful.

This is the show I’d have gone to if I still had my health. So sad to miss it.

ro

Beautiful, Nick_A
Thank you for that

My favourite is still the mystery of the Candy Crush music and The Prize.

love this description. affectionate, keen & succinct: We played shows without the heavy guns—and the new material, it’s beautiful. It doesn’t suffer. There’s more room for the guitars. It becomes a more visceral and rock-and-roll thing. And in a way, it’s more charming. The voice is bigger. The dyna...

Have fun!

ro

That’s interesting, there are several Spz songs I’ve always imagined as being a conversation with oneself. I don’t know the truth, but I like reading them that way.

ro

well. so nice to hear these new ways of woven sound. i love this new intimacy, in vocals and presentation, like spiritualized has turned itself inside out. i love this magic carpet of The Prize. i love how it bows sideways with us inside of it in it, like slow wavering snow from mars. i love the une...

ro

Funny you should post that today about dreams, FM. Not bizarre, but definitely about Spz: dreamt last night I was waiting for them to play in a local auditorium, they never came on but the whole time the Pure Phase tones/drone was playing in my head. And I hardly listen to music anymore either. Edit...

ro

the tremolo sounds great!

I do love the more emotive lyric delivery of the live versions we were treated to a few years ago. So these 2 songs make more sense to me if I think of them as instrumentals, with the vocals woven in for rhythm, and the whole pieces as lovely immersive things.

ro

nice to hear that, thank you.

ro

NYC folks, this should be really good!

Dusty Springfield / Anyone Who Had A Heart

ro

Always have been drawn to the signature poignant blend of tragic and (what I see as) kinda goofy-sweet. That recipe means a great deal to me, I can relate to it, and it’s partly what makes most of Spz music so powerful for me. If you’re gonna do a dulcimer, make sure you throw in a flugelhorn as wel...

maybe it's an album of two halves and the second half is the noisier half? wishful thinking?

That’d be lovely.

I thought an imminent release was a given, no discussion whatsoever. Although my last thought going to bed last night was that the final code will say "Released March 7 2019"

Hahah!

ro

I was wondering what you guys think will be the best place to sit for the show? The way I see it: [*]1 has the best view I'd say (or maybe 2??) [*]3 or 4 the best sound. [*]1 or 3 the most leg room [*]2 or 4 best spots to stand up and dance Thoughts? All of the above! But I’d go for best sound. Hav...

wow, Jane Birkin and Charlotte Gainsbourg. neat.

It would indeed be great if someone, anyone, in the band could actually be a part this process. But if it’s not happening, it’s not happening. So. How much is the monthly maintenance? That figure roughly divided by how many of us are willing to commit to small monthly chip-ins. And/or commitment to ...

Spzretent,
I thought all the mods were already aware how many of us have said we’d be glad to help?
Please count me in.

ro

… and it breaks my heart. I will most definitely miss SPZ when/if they come around this time to Boston or New York. I was debating whether to post this, it's really so personal, but then BZA made that 20 years ago today post. And I realized it was 22 years last week I had my first spz gig, and now, ...

ro

Holy moly, 20 yrs almost exactly for me, too.
Thanks for posting this, BZA.
Good gosh, or is 21... or 22 ?
Either way, very special gig that has stayed with me always.
Forever glad & grateful.

ro

It's been very satisfying to watch this thread play out!

ro

It really does stink, the way that happens.
That said, I'm really happy for you and I hope you have a super time!

I haven't been out to a gig since April, so really hoping to make it to hear these guys! Sublime Frequencies is thrilled to announce that Group Doueh will be coming for a short tour in the USA.
