nettles Posted October 30, 2007 Share Posted October 30, 2007 what do you fine people think of the new record? I passed it up at the record store but i am curious as Gary Louris produced it and contributes on the record. I think it's quite good, if your into psychedelic folk rock, I'd recommend it, and you can hear some Louris influence on the vocals Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kalle Posted October 30, 2007 Share Posted October 30, 2007 It's alright. I prefer the Sadies as a backing band playing someone elses songs than playing their own... I just think that their own songs are overrated Quote Link to post Share on other sites
LouieB Posted October 31, 2007 Share Posted October 31, 2007 They are a great backing band... What I like about their own stuff is they get in and get out in a hurry...no messin around. LouieB Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Smokestack Joe Posted November 4, 2007 Author Share Posted November 4, 2007 i saw them open for The Jayhawks on their Rainy Day Music tour. out of all the opening bands Ive seen, they blew me away! great stage presence, music hits you in the face. I bought the live record which i believe is one of their best. i think i will check it out. want to see Gary's input on it Quote Link to post Share on other sites
LouieB Posted November 4, 2007 Share Posted November 4, 2007 Favorite Colours is terrific, though I found the live album uneven to be sure. For some great back-up the Neko disk is super as is the one with Jon Langford. I saw them for the first time when they opened for Langford and then backed him up. They had a marimba player with them on that tour which was very fun. As I have said, I love the fact that they get in and out of songs in a big hurry; no fucking around, just play the shit out of it and move on to the next one.

Serak_the_Preparer Posted November 5, 2007 Share Posted November 5, 2007 i saw them open for The Jayhawks on their Rainy Day Music tour. out of all the opening bands Ive seen, they blew me away! great stage presence, music hits you in the face. I bought the live record which i believe is one of their best. i think i will check it out. want to see Gary's input on it I also saw them during that tour and they blew me away too. I love them as a band and as a backing band. Neko Case's The Tigers Have Spoken is a wonderful album. I have yet to get the new one, but I am looking forward to it.
