US AND CANADA!! We can’t believe it but April 3 has finally arrived. Our album My Head Is An Animal is available HERE AND NOW!
They are a very talented group of Icelandic awesomeness.
I’m beyond excited to go out and buy this album NOW!
I bet you five dollars they are playing “The Big Three Killed My Baby.”
Totally guessing, but of their very very early songs, that one was pretty popular and was one of the only that a barred G5 chord is primarily used (which Jack is playing in the picture). And he yells a lot in that song.
That song is so fun and easy to play (only 2 chords!) that they are actually performing it with their eyes closed haha!

We did a daytrotter session a year or two ago and it has made the light of day. I was a bit apprehensive about releasing something from so long ago, as we have been evolving a bunch with this new record, but I really love these takes. I also love the mixing that was done. So please enjoy and we look forward to letting the world here our new record. Its ever so close.
Guys, I love the “Light of the World” track…

This game is nationally televised, do we really want the rest of the US to associate Detroit with Nickelback? Detroit is home to so many great musicians and they chose Nickelback?!?!?! Does anyone even like Nickelback? Is this some sort of ploy to get people to leave their seats during halftime to spend money on alcoholic beverages and concessions? This is completely unfair to those of us who purchased tickets to the game. At least the people watching at home can mute their TVs. The Lions ought to think about their fans before choosing such an awful band to play at halftime.
Here’s some rockin’ math nerds talkin’ about it:
Andrew seems to be singing a bar of 14, then a bar of 16
Then the rest seems to be going in 10
Correct me if I’m wrong about that, but I thought this was fucking awesome and found a new love for PiM
Also, elaborating on my last comment, you’re technically right about 14/8 and 16/8. However, the feel is certainly right on the bass drum, so I think the proper interpretation would be quarter note getting the beat, or 7/4 and 8/4 instead of 14/8 and 16/8. This also simplifies it a lot, and simplification is a lot about what music theory works towards. =]
LiveByFoma 4 months agoYou’re essentially mostly right, but you’re WAY over complicating it and kind of confusing how time signatures work. The 14 and 16 bits you mentioned are just alternating measures of 7/4 and 8/4, with the quarter note on the bass drum. If you keep the pulse constant on the break sections, it just continues in 8/4.
Time signatures work on a measure-by-measure basis if they change. You wouldn’t combine all the time signatures in the song like you did to get the 30/8 number.
LiveByFoma 4 months agoi love this version!!
tototing 1 year agoHow does this only have 214 views? This song is amazing.
Muse - Supermassive Black Hole
