Speed music goes slow!

Holy Shit - PART TWO - live @ the Eagle, San Francisco, 12/27/07


So if you weren't at the Holy Shit show, you totally missed out. Luckily WFISF has a video camera now, so you don't have to miss out completely. So Holy Shit are a band from LA that make this really stubborn psychedelic music. They play V back to I a lot... sort of like David Bowie's Heroes or Modern English's Melt with You. That chord progression always sounds awesome. So check them out if you're not already familiar. The band features Christopher "Crissy Baby" Owens from one of our favorite bands Girls.

Oh I'm glad you think the sound quality is good. The mic attached to the camera is OK. If you know where to put a microphone you can get really good sounds. I just stood front center so as to minimize reflections. I think everyone taping bands with a video camera should do the same - say if they're not getting a the feed from the board. It also helps that they didn't have a drummer.

On a similar note, I recorded Ariel Pink at the Hemlock in 5.1 surround sound for a school project a couple years ago. Talk about live recording overkill.
