playbynumbers Posted October 29, 2007 Report Share Posted October 29, 2007 i realize i'm like seven years late here, but wtf, this guy is incredible ... i heard 'up in flames' once four years ago and thought it was boring, but no the comparison only became obvious to me in hindsight, but he's really very BoC-ish, in a completely non-copying way; especially the last two albums, they sound like kevin shields and brian wilson producing a BoC album in 2021, or something Thanks Haha Confused Sad Facepalm Burger Farnsworth Big Brain Like × Quote Hide playbynumbers's signature Hide all signatures vinyl for sale photography!

Atop Posted October 29, 2007 Report Share Posted October 29, 2007 just saw Caribou live and it made me not want to listen to Andorra ever again......... BORING! everything sounded just like the tracks on the albums but not as good because he does a great job in the recording studio, so good in fact that he could not translate it to the stage....... and he (they) played for like 30 minutes.........

Guest FDR Posted October 29, 2007 Report Share Posted October 29, 2007 Man I love Manitoba/Caribou The only live I heard he never played Hendrix With Ko, so I was a little bummed, hopefully I'l catch him next time hes around Boston Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/27677-manitobacaribou/#findComment-584802 Share on other sites More sharing options...

BobDobalina Posted October 30, 2007 Report Share Posted October 30, 2007 I quite like his newer stuff, but Start Breaking My Heart remains the favorite! The bonus disc on the re-release is a nice treat too (particularly T&A: The Great Canadian Weekend).

Guest ChilP Posted October 30, 2007 Report Share Posted October 30, 2007 if you look on youtube for live videos, you can clearly see that Caribou sucks live. which is a shame, because yes, the studio recordings are fantastic.

Guest ~ism Posted October 30, 2007 Report Share Posted October 30, 2007 saw snaith and his 2 compadres live in Glasgow's Mono about 2 yrs ago. Was amazing. Exceptional. Went out an bought Milk of Human Kindness as a result. Love it. Then got promo of Andorra - utter tripe. Real garbage. Up In Flames was great too. Crayon is my fone ringtone...

Andorra is pretty damn good too and the milk of human kindness has some great tracks too . I still regret not going to his live show when he came to Edmonton. The fact that he has two drummers would have just been enough for me to go. I hadnt listened to Andorra when he was touring. I am happy he won the Polaris prize($20,000) , he deserves it Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/27677-manitobacaribou/#findComment-945704 Share on other sites More sharing options...
springymajig Posted February 8, 2009 Report Share Posted February 8, 2009 I heard The Milk of Human Kindness and thought it was ok, 3 or 4 awesome tracks and a whole lot of boring ones. Up in Flames on the other hand, is excellent! Very nice album! Crayon and Jacknuggeted are two of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard.
