Thank you I tried to do this but KZbin has changed the timestamps from backwards to forwards so people like you and I who do this have to subtract the time from the beginning which is ridiculous!

KEXP features so many Jazzmasters they should reach out to Fender to get some sort of sponsorship going

[@dariocaporuscio8701]

Most underrated fender

[@MajicFreeman]

haha, but what? most underrated? i uhhh, yah, i dunno maybe it is. I don't even know how to look at it tho, cuz lots of badasses use them, but do kids buy them at the store? i guess i feel ya. I want one of those performer jazzes, with the strat bridge tbh

[@TheUnknownReject]

@@MajicFreeman Most underrated has got to be the marauder or the tornado

[@DeadWhiteButterflies]

I wish sponsorships were that easy. I'd shill with my band for a Jazzmaster, if that was the case!

[@guitaristssuck8979]

Maybe they already sponsor them secretly

[@pjbeardsley]

When I listen to the records I assume its multitracked. But no, this guy can actually get that full a sound out of a single guitar live. Amazing.

[@Aurichu]

It is multitracked on the latest record. The live rendition are just good good !

[@rossamundbrennan7248]

Trick is to have open strings droning.

[@stella-vu8vh]

dirt before a fuzz pedal gives u MASSIVE sound if ur pickups are good and u don't have a tone knob that works

[@JimmyStrummer]

That’s the power of a Turbo Rat into a Twin Reverb - nothing like it. 😙👌

[@jadeone]

i mean the massive, distorted bass is part of that sound

[@cronaon317]

first of can we acknowledge the sound engineer for capturing Metz, a toast to you fine sir. The bassist and drummer so tight and the free flow of the guitar...just thank you for the upload

Looks like it was recorded at palace sound in Toronto they are great dudes there.

a boat to drown in on repeat 100000x times during my 12k run

So glad they played A boat to drown in. Its their best song for sure and i hope they are going to write more melodic stuff like this, because they're just so damn good at it.

[@hotwater4941]

This performance of A Boat To Drown In is my new religion

[@Tang526]

I played one of their records and I couldn’t tell any of the guitars and tones apart. Then I had to see a live vid. I didn’t know it was a 3 piece. There’s so much frantic tones and irregular melodies it’s hard to know what’s going on or where the songs going. Then when you here the relief and you start to hear all the components apart from each other. The drumbeat is frantic and drives song forward never giving a break and you realize how much power in simplicity is. The sound of everything from the bass being subtlety sweet compared to harshness of the guitar tones. These have a unique sound

[@DeadWhiteButterflies]

If there's one band I'm gonna miss seeing live it's Metz. Always a consistenly amazing show. Still remember a kid back flipping by accident as he crowdsurfed when everyone dropped him then picked him back up just before he hit the floor. Never seen anything like it. Then Idles' drummer (they were the support) handed me rest of his beer and dived in.

[@Aurichu]

Sounds like a great night, I've sure missed seing these guys last year.

[@Agothygoth]

Woah what a night!

[@MajicFreeman]

jesus christ metz and idles yesss

[@DeadWhiteButterflies]

@@MajicFreeman Yeah, it in was 2015 when Idles were still just a local band. I live in the same town, so sometimes I'll see them as I walk past. Had no idea they would get this big. They played "Well Done" that night and that got me thinking, "Oh, these guys are pretty good". Funny how those things happen.

[@sethmoore8484]

@@DeadWhiteButterflies That is super sick. Makes me wish I had a killer local scene to partake in. Maybe one day I'll move out somewhere and catch some good shows.

[@nerigarcia7116]

I love Chris' bass tone. It's got some growl.

[@jakegeeslin9731]

Atlas Vending is a fantastic evolution of an already fantastic band. Everything they’ve done is top notch but Comets Tail and Boat To Drown In are hypnotic as hell and I’m very here for it.

[@tadsiskiyou4213]

Every once in a while, you will stumble across something on youtube that just blows you away (musically.) This band is just explosive and raw and real. At the moment when you think all is chaos, a melody will come through that relieves all of the tension. These guys play with their hearts in it. Awesomeness. I hear a bit of Steelpole bathtub in it and drumming like it was from a dream that Dave Grohl had. The bass is heavy and crushing and kinetic as hell.

[@Qwoap]

If you ever get the chance to see them live. Do it. They are amazing live. I saw them live at Laneway in Brisbane QLD in 2016. One of the most high energy performance I have ever seen.

[@benjaminstearns7104]

A boat to drown in is a gut punch after riding on an emotional roller coaster

The band name confused me for a moment. I'm in the intermodal shipping industry and deal with TRAC chassis all day and one of their prefixes is METZ. When you see a container on the road look at the side of the chassis under it, it might just say METZ advertising for the band.
