Still perhaps the best British live band. They just got even better.

diminishing returns
Good - really good, but...
... I prefer Youthmovies for that whole bombastic intelligent quasi-post rock thing. No offence like.
A friend of mine once sucked off one of oceansize
And, yes, I logged in just to tell you that.
...
which one?
The singer I think.
but i know literally nothing of this band.
I wish they didnt make so much
mongin' post-rock stuff nowadays.
great band!
i hate their name though. :(
fantastic band
Commemorative 9/11 Shirt is fucking great
really?
I think it's entirely suiting of their music...
Commemorative 9/11 Shirt is fuckin superb!
Disagree with the post-rock line too, they're way more varied than you're average 'quiet-loud' vibe.
The new LP is a beast.
i just don't like the name... :/
completely subjective on my part though, i don't expect everyone to agree.
Oceansize
One of my favourite bands of all time. I remember when I first heard Effloresce and I didnt like it at all. Then I heard Everyone Into Position and found it a lot easier to get into. Then I went back to Effloresce and LOVED it, and it made Everyone Into Position sound 10x worse. The new album Frames is ace too.

Fucking brilliant band, as good live as they are on record.
I opened for them in my band on the stoke date of their last tour, It was on my birthday aswell.... I couldn't have really asked for a better birthday present
I was at that gig!
I didn't go early though, what band were/are you in?
theyre amazing true
and one of the best live bands i've ever seen.
but i always find myself having spells where theyre all i listen to and then i find myself not being able to even say their name without wincing cause it all gets a bit much sometimes. that said, when i can listen to them, i listen to little else. they are super
Frames
Is SO fucking good.
Going to see them in Leeds tonight
eeeeeeeeee!
I love Effloresce, that's all I have so far.
I will purchase the other albums in due course though.
my favourite band
seen em about 10 times live and they never disappoint. My last two gigs were at the Melkweg in Amsterdam and then last week at the Patronaat in Haarlem.
please note, go and see them in europe, the sound, venues and lights are infinitely better than any of the gigs I saw in the UK.
