High Pulp - Full Performance (Live on KEXP)

[@waynedexter]

Not only are High Pulp keeping Jazz alive but they’re also doing it well and keeping it fresh in the process.

I love the beautiful cover of the excellent Mere song (what a great album is Solanin!), but the Cortex cover is THE BOMB! LOVE, love, love the sax performances--and the effects engineering employed on them! You own me!

[@ZekeBriarcliff]

Excellent! I caught the tail end of this live on the streams and immediately jumped on bandcamp to PURCHASE their album.

[@ZekeBriarcliff]

@@maniswolftoman True dat. I really want to encourage people to buy their mp3s. I mean when that Silicon Valley bank collapsed, it nearly took out a whole chunk of "app" companies, perhaps even Spotify, etc. If we hadn't bailed them out, so many people would have instantly lost their entire music "collection."

[@jeremyallenglover6831]

Incredible! Groovy and experimental. Love those effects on the horns

[@crystal-pupa]

i love you guys from the bottom of my heart!!!!

[@jbrwe]

Really really good...all of it...every beat, note, just...nailed it. Super cool.

[@mariabrandao5559]

Everyone's tone was very on point, great experience overall. And Victory's Machine Girl T-Shirt has not gone unnoticed!

[@Lifesizemortal]

a lot of this reminded me of bands like Zu and T.R.A.M. which is a rare sound to find. Love how hard this went!!!!

[@enzo275]

Bobby is such a talented drummer! Love this band.

[@Merlincat007]

Any time the drummer is the lead, the band will be great 😊

[@xos]

So many 'pulp' bands these days! Glad I clicked into this one though, this set was amazing. Definitely will be picking up their new album

[@brosephlyle]

there they go!

[@MaxStephens77]

Holy shit this is SO good

[@swlbarely]

I didn't know bands like this existed any more. So original and not bound by boundaries. What a great sound! Also the bass player appears to not have the highest string on her 6 string bass...just an interesting observation.

[@metaldetectorists76]

About 5 mins into this live set I thought I was hearing a very early Ozric Tentacles bit of tuneage... Very mellow... 😊

[@HighPulpMusic]

Amazing that you noticed this!! Kaeli's string broke last minute at the THING festival set and we had to bounce straight over to this -- she adapted like a champ!

[@Merlincat007]

​@@HighPulpMusic Just found y'all and you're incredible! And you seem humble and really chill too :) I'm a drummer and I've used that same ION 22" crash (actually as my main crash-ride) for a while now. Nothing comes close for my taste lol I've tried a lot

[@joaogutierre9668]

These guys are lit!!!🔥🔥

[@elemkay5104]

Seriously though, these folks are fantastic.

[@ArturJday]

from first second i knew, that drummer is a main actor

[@Merlincat007]

Hell yeah bro! Drummer-led bands ftw

[@droj43]

great cortex cover

[@TimMedvedev]

Get these guys for the next Cyberpunkgame soundtrack please 💯💯💯💯

[@aussiejo5764]

Forget about Cyberpunk, we need them to do the soundtrack for a Jazzpunk sequel

[@AustinGbikes]

Groovy stuff, reminds me of a millenial mahavishnu orchestra

[@crystal-pupa]

umm Victorys solo at 11:30 ?? 🤯

[@elemkay5104]

Clicked to see Jarvis Cocker performing with red eyes and a slur. 0/10 would not recommend

[@Lifesizemortal]

Jokes aside, I can't take that 0/10 seriously

[@trevor_corey8037]

It’s weird how people can make such unpleasant sounds in the form of music and people will praise it just because it’s ‘original.’ What emotion does this envoke? What reminiscences does it bring? Which accomplishments or failures does it highlight?

[@iceman992992]

it does succeed in evoking ultra bad takes like yours. so that’s one thing we can say about it.

[@kiereluurs1243]

Yeah well, the usual problem of instrumental music getting boring after a while. No singing, being soul-less, going from nothing to nowhere. Cut.
