STS9
    #4786710 -

interesting band. they range from amazing, inspiring, ane emotional body moving grooves to absolute garbage and totally flat uninspired music. Why is this? How can a band that can do it so well, sit there and do it sooooo badly?

I've seen them 4 times and their live shows are the shit. Every time i go away thinking "wow that was awesome" and then i get the live recording and i can't even listen to most of it because it's just so annoying, boring, and down right BAD. Sure, theres parts of the recordings where i think, yeah this is what i remember. it's the really groovin jams with that bass...but theres an equal amount of lame shit i dont remember. I guess i was in the bathroom ro something.

I think part of it may be their superb light show. It probably accounts for a good 30-40% of their live experience. It distracts you from when they are playing something that just sucks. Without the light show i don't think people would put out that energy that is so characteristic of a STS9 crowd.

yeah...I really wanted to check them out when they came through town.

they do have a pretty ecclectic and fluid sound.

they're definetly worth the 10-15 bucks it usually costs. they have fun entertaining shows and a killer atmospheric light show. Also, there are usually alot of hot women dancing at the shows.

i've easily had some of the best times of my life at an sts9 show, they just take me to that place that a lot of other bands don't

you wanna talk about repetitive and un-inspired, check out particle

can you expand on exactly what part "sucks" please. my only gripe with them now is that all their shows are extremely polished and they play a lot of the same songs the exact same ways, whereas a few years ago they were still experimenting and improvising a lot more than you see now

either way, rock on

they blew my fuckin' mind!
i downloaded some of their songs
and it just doesnt feel the same as their live-shows.
