Dry Cleaning - Magic of Meghan (Green Man Festival | Sessions)

[@SamTheComicMan]

'an instant yes' that's how I felt discovering this band

[@piercings_]

they my favorite band of the last few years... i cannot wait for their new LP

[@taraanndonohue5606]

So you had an instant guess? 🇬🇧 MTHRFCKRS

[@xrockangelx]

I just found them yesterday, and I'm ecstatic. 💜

[@TheKevbe]

This sounds much better than studio version. Shout out to person that recorded and mixed it

[@beatc]

yes, the sound is really tight for a live recording.

[@masonman1]

Its insanely tight .

[@Nonjecko]

I actually thought the same thing to myself

[@CryptoTonight9393]

Only problem I have are the vocal are kind of buried. Drums sound amazing.

[@theNeathBoy]

Vocals are somewhat lost though

[@jessicaky]

love the four-piece aspect of this band. each part is clear and piercing.

[@stourleykracklite7663]

So true!

[@magdalenazwieböck]

Exactly! They're like superheros, each bringing their own unique power to the band

[@mikehughes2183]

Yeah, this live version and the and studio version sound the same. Simple 4 piece and sounds like there is no over dubbing on the record.

[@lilnutty6821]

Would you really call the vocals piercing? I think insipid suits much better

[@kenzodiaze....]

@@lilnutty6821 the flavour is in the subtle diversion from plain spoken word, in the rare times in which she lets emotion pass through and in the lyrics themselves but I get that it's not everybody's cup of tea

[@pauldavies8571]

I just want this band to thrive after the restrictions lift. So Fucking cool. The pace, vocals and energy is a new, refreshing vibe.

[@MothGirl007]

And yet, it has a great, retro thing going on too.

[@massimoravedoni7881]

I've just seen them in Turin: amazing

[@childofthesun32]

It's weird to hear someone describe weird nonsensical poetry read out monotonously over some hipster music as new and refreshing.

[@peter_meyer]

@@childofthesun32 Hipster music? Define "hipster music".....

[@ataqueparoxistico]

@@childofthesun32 since when "nonsensical poetry" is a bad thing? also, should it make sense to you to be valid? the guitars and bass are some of the best commited to record in years. you don't know what you're talking about.

[@gramsci420]

Florence’s nervousness is palpable and she totally crushes it regardless

[@jens2049]

I dont feel that at all

[@aicy5020]

This bloke is the greatest guitarist I have ever heard i hope they don't get too commercialized and change I want them to stay raw they are fantastic The best thing I have heard in many years

[@spikesp666]

Scratchcard Lanyard brought me here. Just discovered this band yesterday and can't stop playing their songs. mesmerizing!

[@lkeeble]

Great song and nice touch having prince harry on drums

[@koreypaul6698]

Lol on a song about Meghan Markel

[@graemekeable8461]

Echoes of joy devision and the fall. I like these.

[@tonylaurent6990]

Absolutely. Joy Division - good to know that my generation's music still resonates ;-)

[@egodeathwish]

the true Southern Mark Smith

[@johnentwistle952]

let's not forget the almighty Su Tissue

[@lesleycooper3088]

Thought the same thing.

[@JamesHunterRoss]

This is my BIG discovery for 2022... such a great band. (I found Sleaford Mods in 2022 also... the year is starting well!)

[@bukowski20]

Two great ones, mate.

[@r3tr0actiongamer24]

I found these guys in 2020 when covid first hit. I'll be seeing them for a third time in July. So talented. I'm going to check out Sleaford Mods.

[@cocoant78]

Im a yr behind u. Been listening pretty much non-stop for 3 days. Im enchanted.

[@floraline7153]

I heard a song not yet shown here on KZbin by Dry Cleaning. Anyway, it was last night on 91.1 WREK in Atlanta (Georgia Tech radio). Damn. It's rare that I pull over while driving to write down an artist so I don't forget their name and then look them up the next day and listen to what little is available over and over again. Thank you for existing.

[@pponcelet]

smart enough to write it down but not smart enough to remember the words dry cleaning

[@MattKeenanMusic]

@@pponcelet but smart enough to pull over. The name is generic enough that it's not super memorable unless you're acquainted with the band

[@pponcelet]

@@MattKeenanMusic So you're saying you're also not smart enough to remember two short words. Thanks for sharing.

[@MattKeenanMusic]

@@pponcelet it's more to do with poor memory than intelligence dude. Remembering everything isn't the only criterion for being smart.

[@gladitsnotme]

@@pponcelet being a dick on the internet isn't as cute as you think it is

[@emdawg2676]

Just discovered! Absolute banger. Relentless riff! Love it

[@Heartandthehead]

Holy fuck these guys are rad. I love their sound. I haven't been this excited about a band in a long time.

[@dag320]

same

[@kirby711]

True dat 🎆

[@ronnygill]

About thirty years for me

[@MothGirl007]

Same.

[@Flyingdutchy33]

@@ronnygill Sounds about right.

[@peter_meyer]

Sonic Youth reloaded. Love it! Kim surely would love it, too.

[@kirby711]

Tight TIGHT band backing up a dynamite vocalist Thanks for the lift. 🎇

[@MisyeDiVre]

"Earrings to empower women" lol :D. That made my day. Cheers!

[@R0NEWIRD]

the great british music is coming back, we miss it!

[@MrPartridge37]

Brilliant. The best band of 2019 by a mile.

[@felipemorenoperdomo9823]

I just watched this. I was never attracted to punk rock. But this has got something special. This sounds great. Like this band. :)

[@LSluaP]

Saw them at the Great Western festival in Glasgow and we bought tickets for the next gigs as we were leaving the venue. This really doesn't do them justice but it's topical I suppose. #megxit

[@ronnygill]

*century

[@thestudentcarduk]

The recording on these GM sessions are so good! Top work sound guys.

[@lastriotgrrl]

So many grown up at the show. I want to go to THIS festival.

[@josejose22]

WOW! 🤯 how is this sounding so better than the recording . Insane!

[@LiamPorterFilms]

yeah it's almost Krautrock

[@beans100]

Wow. Great guitar playing.

[@OIP_1]

i've watched this too many times oh well, time to watch it again

[@alicefrom]

same!

[@frankystarrz]

Saw this band 2 years ago at The Shacklewell Arms in London. Good they are getting some recognition. It all gels so well.

[@kevinoneill8433]

Peace & Love to all at/in Dry Cleaning. You are another individual dimension again. Part of the overall 'mass' that prefers to proffer the truth rather than peddle lies. Thank you. xxx

[@dialemma7703]

Late to the party me. Just cant get enough of this tune.

[@ELECTECHNUT]

Love the energy, love the song writing, love the singing, LOVE IT ALL!

[@ronnygill]

Drone on an ancient tape deck is genius

[@charleshoward1475]

Absolutely Superb. I am crying out for an album to be available from Dry Cleaning. Thank Youi Green Man Festival.

[@pauldavies8571]

Just discovered this band thanks to Radio 6. What a powerhouse. Fantastic. Can't wait to hear more.

[@davidh5500]

Ditto, was instant love the first time I heard them.

[@aicy5020]

[@victorcenteno8048]

Great bassline! Sounds alot like sonic youth though

[@leaedt7614]

Yes!

[@rlloydmason]

and thats.... a bad thing?

[@mariogarcia6692]

Kim Gordon on vocals

[@jonathanmacdonald1946]

That is amazing! I fell in love in Megan, so incredibly pretty, tripped and fell into my life, fell into my life, it's kept the world gripped, it's just a surprised." Ha. Amazing. As a Brit. in America I love this!

[@Ourdavey64]

Not lost that the drummer looks like Harry. This is neo Gang of four glory and I'm here for it.

[@core_language]

Wonderful. Reminds me of my youth, very eighties.

[@andrewjones5801]

Think I'm falling in love. So good to see a band with bollocks; some special stuff happening here.

[@jive499]

just love the guitar on this and other songs by this band

[@guywatkins5590]

Agreed. Wish I could get it minus the vocals

[@jive499]

@@guywatkins5590 haha yes. When I found out the song is about meghan markle being wonderful and us being racist, I somewhat went off them entirely

[@guywatkins5590]

@@jive499 is it? oh god i'll probably steer clear of their other stuff then.. After checking out the rest of guitar stuff haha xD

[@jive499]

@@guywatkins5590 unfortunately yeah.. They even said it in an interview. Had the same after really enjoying the music of the Blinders, then discovering their sixth form leftist politics. Cringe.

Need to see them live

Wet Leg and Dry Cleaning are so refreshing!

you might also like Gut Health and Loose Fit from Australia. Playing a similar No Wave style.

[@fanatp0stpanka]

wet leg wishes they came close to dry cleaning, industry plants they are

[@jrh86]

Most Excellent

[@Kabanchik04]

I CAN FINALLY HEAR THE BASSS

[@Deedee-ee1sg]

Fabulous interview with Dry Cleaning in current ish of Crack magazine!

[@Mrmre]

amazing, nice mix too

[@davedavis7589]

Splendid !

[@botant500]

Great job, everybody. You somehow managed to not be on her every time she yelled "Whoop!" The only time she steps out of her cool, detached persona and you totally missed it. Kudos all around. Great performance by a great band, though. And easily my favorite song of 2019.

[@whisper3978]

Alex Reid haha I came here to say the same thing. So frustrating. I imagine the person behind camera must not have known the song at the time. Or they just prefer drummers.

[@stillben]

i think that is a little harsh. i didn't feel that not seeing her go whoop anyway detracted from the video or song.

[@RobX_SWE]

Hate to spoil it for you but she doesn't really step out of her persona. 🙂

[@literaticrux8292]

Absolutely the bee's knees

[@nicmoloney8056]

This aged well

[@blirbis]

Utterly bananas! Can’t wait for SXSW!

[@robertfrost2157]

:/

[@timchaplin8259]

Brilliant, like all my favourite Post Punk bands like Au Pairs, Delta 5, Kleenex and The Raincoats.

[@stanislasdarjeeling]

Yes, serious Delta 5 vibes! 19 year old me is v excited!!

[@williamallfrey577]

I've just read 'Delta 5' twice in the same thread! I followed Delta 5 back in the day, and saw the other bands you mentioned above. Dry Cleaning were born 40 years too late, but they are really quite good.

[@RealKevM]

Reminds me of Black Box Recorder..great

[@karithatthought2304]

Brilliant! 😎

[@bach730]

I’m not artsy enough to really get the spoken-word thing (I’m old) but the visuals and the outstanding music this band have going on are fantastic! It’ll probably grow on me.

[@nnslg]

Just pretend we're in 35 years ago and it's Kim Gordon from Sonic Youth and her monologues over dissonant rock grooves :)

[@go-vegan-people]

beautiful

[@irel4ever]

I love this. What's going on with the portable...looks like a cassette player she's using...for what ?

[@heimatlose]

it’s playing the drone you hear in the second half
