@Matan Hah. I saw 'em in 2000 and it was just freakin' incredible. I haven't gotten an album since Lift Yr Skinny Fists... and I'm sure what I've heard has been good (though a little "oh another GY!BE record"). Maybe that sort of post-rock thing reached a saturation point. But I'd pick up more of their stuff if I ran across it in the right mood. And still, live is where they shine the brightest (and hell, the records I have I do like a LOT).

Saw them just once in 2003, felt like a religious experience back then, i've since tired of them a bit, so i'd probably go see your band instead!

@thefamilyghost feel for you mate… I missed a double header gig of JSBX and Beck as the band I'd just joined had a gig. I made the most of it :-)
