Cults - Full Performance (Live on KEXP)

[@liamjones8224]

Probably my favourite KEXP set ever. Not only did I find a new dope band, but also watched a wonderful interview. Good work Troy Nelson and KEXP:)

Cults always makes me feel so good, I love them so much that no mather what I listen to them every year, even if it is once but I truly do.

[@kayshawn.]

my favorite band.

[@phant0mdummy]

Love this band.

[@alexanderstewart3265]

Great interview! For the record, The Offering is probably one of my favorite albums, and I immediately was hooked on Gilded Lilly. I'm glad it blew up. It is such a great song.

[@Damla-d2y]

I love Cults' music. It's my favorite band.

[@timothyo718]

Always remember first being introduced to them by the song “Never Saw The Point.” It was a music video of the Last Picture show film made by David Dean Burkhart.

[@zonedereve]

Oh man haven't listened to Cults since Go Outside came out. They still sound great, I can't wait to check out their new stuff!

[@seanboyy]

Also been a big fan of these two for years KEXP! Great session!

[@abraber]

Saw this band in Paris and they were amazing!

[@ksaas9]

Offering is one of my favorites! It’s clear from far away!

[@chuquiii]

The chemistry of the interview is insane!

[@Rod-1982]

I've followed them since their beginnings ❤

[@cultsssfan]

[@Schmetterling_Honey]

[@-Deena.]

Love this! 🧡🧡🧡🧡

[@sarahjim1]

Once I heard the same bells as in the Futurama intro, I was into it.

[@kenschestok9515]

I had that same ministry t-shirt

[@OfficialCelticNative]

Cults covering Tool would be amazing.

[@rrodolfocruz]

Please come back to Mexico City 😢🇲🇽 Desde Host no han venido 😥

[@Horrorbabe4]

she's a TOOL fan? she's just like me forreal

[@BrandonAllison-s9j]

Singer reminds me of the Scottish actress Kelly Macdonald.

[@jaredneff]

I can't tell if they're overlaying anrecorded track with live singing or if it's straight up lip synching. Bummer

[@robotubetwob]

How are they getting that effect on her vocals?

[@tony-u5f]

Not live vocals unfortunately

[@MrBearfaced]

I'm guessing it's a mix of live vocals with either pre-recorded backing/effects track(s) or perhaps a vocal effects unit like the TC-Helicon Live

[@photonfartsqueeze6694]

The mic is probably ran into a reverb and echo effect.

[@realjordanbelfort]

😮

[@metaldetectorists76]

What took them so long???

[@CurbBlurbs]

Wow, the women of music these days…. Are on fire…. Missy from Manequin pussy, amyl , and this dime…

[@dsholt]

These are some great songs, but it sounds so over-processed. There is very little sense of this as a live performance. Might as well just dial up the song on KZbin.

[@XXjg_]

Bingo. Especially all those pre-recorded backing vocals and the over-compressed, over-sweetened lead vocal. Computers can be a valid instrument in the hands of a creative musician. But when they only serve to play something pre-recorded, to be a digital boom-box/karaoke machine/metronome, the artistic value of a live performance disappears.

[@willowufgood261]

They can do it however they want. Thank you Phil Spector for your insightful critique

[@dsholt]

@@willowufgood261 they certainly can. And since there is a comment section I can express my opinion. And you are welcome to ignore that opinion and listen as you wish. Welcome to the Internet.

[@willowufgood261]

@@dsholtthanks again. I appreciate your breakdown of how the comment section works. You are quite the expert

[@XXjg_]

@ Yep, they can do it how they want, AND people can critique it like they want. Your defensive interjection is petty and pointless. And your sarcasm is shallow, because it implies that only a handful of big-named producers have the perspective, or right, from which to critique music production and value.

[@tony-u5f]

Love you kexp.and this band sound good.but I've noticed alot of pre recorded vocals being used in recent sessions.if it's a backing vocal maybe not so bad.but not acceptable in a lead vocal.

[@dsholt]

I wasn't sure if it was pre-recorded or just that they put all the same effects on her voice as they would when recording. Either way this performance sounds sterile and over-processed.

[@tony-u5f]

@dsholt I realise you can use many effects on a microphone.but her mouth seems out of since with the words at times.i could be wrong,but I doubt it .I would rather hear imperfect vocals,live should be live.songs were good though.

[@calderarecords]

It would appear that they pre-recorded her vocal lines and applied effects prior to this to save her any embarrassment of singing anything less than perfect! Great band though. Not judging in this era of superficiality.

[@alkey21]

They have always been eclectic white women’s wine music… 😂

[@franzicosmos5966]

Bad performances 😢

[@gernot-reininger]

At least the Singer is not live

[@desidesigning]

Cannot fit this into any band 😟

[@XXjg_]

So overproduced. Especially all those pre-recorded backing vocals and the over-compressed, over-sweetened lead vocal. Computers can be a valid instrument in the hands of a creative musician. But when they only serve to play something pre-recorded, to be a digital boom-box/karaoke machine/metronome, and become the foundation of the performance, the artistic value of a live performance disappears.

[@Rod-1982]

Relax a little!

[@XXjg_]

@ So funny how people like you assume critique is a tense exercise. Is it beyond you to realize that some people enjoy debate and critique of the arts and its elements, and can do it in an enjoyable and relaxing fashion? Since you’re giving out suggestions, if not barking orders, here’s a suggestion for you: maybe don’t tell people how to respond to posts on youtube. What’s beyond me is how someone would actually take the time to comment just to tell someone how to feel, instead of sharing how THEY feel. But, whatevs.

[@Rod-1982]

@@XXjg_ It seems that my comment made you uncomfortable.

[@XXjg_]

@ Not at all. I love debate. How could you make me uncomfortable when you’re the offspring of the woman that made me so comfortable last night? Silly.

[@Rod-1982]

@@XXjg_ You don't even know how to debate and your criticisms are just complaints. You think you're very intelligent but you're just a poor bastard.

[@agnidas5816]

24:40 oh so you just invited personal friends on the show Hmm. Nepotism. Nepotism - is that why the past several years were lacking good music ?

Красивая музыка.
