MrBoston - 4-19-2010 at 11:54 AM

Very Nice!

Can't wait for the studio version of Fire Water. Such a cool song. Love it when the trumpet comes it.

neckbeard - 4-19-2010 at 12:01 PM

yeah that song is super sick!
i thought it was a jade song..but maybe it's officially an Edward one.

I have a feeling that the bro-ster who said the above has a lot to experience...

Coachella 2010: Edward Sharpe And The Magnetic Zeros

Monday, April 19, 2010 10:40AM - By Travis Woods






Though their peace and patchouli vibe can sometimes wear a bit thin to those non-hippies amongst us—and the question of authenticity arises when the singer of an indie dance-rock, Ima Robot, grows a beard and leads a band-styled love-in—Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros’ early evening set on the Outdoor Stage at Coachella on Saturday was, I gotta admit, pretty fun, despite the fact that the band’s audience was comprised primarily of adenoidal bro-sters, the unholy union of sun-baked and beer-sloshed frat boys with the skinny-jean’d aesthetic of the common hipster. Further, frontman Alex Ebert persevered despite a host of sound problems, turning in a bouncy, ebullient set.

The opening swoons of “40 Day Dream” got the show’s biggest reaction, with a heavy cloud of pot smoke beginning to envelop the crowd just as the music swelled around us. “Dude,” one man next to me said to his companion, “it’s like, they’re hippies and everything, but they don’t, like, suck, you know? It’s like, my dad would listen to this, but I’m listening to this two. It’s like indie and something else, right? Like it’s classic and shit.” I probably wouldn’t have gone that far and delved into the c-word, but no other band of the week best exemplified the sheer communal party atmosphere/ mindset that takes hold when 75,000 music fans retreat to the desert for one long, boozy weekend than the porch-stomping acoustics and Lonely Hearts Club-styled pop of Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros.

"but i'm listening to this TWO" hahaha god dang it.


i'm fairly certain i don't like most of Edward Sharpe's fan-base...seeing as they are primarily hipster cool kids and what not.

Ya that's what I'm starting to think too. Hopefully we see it released somewhere soon. It's clearly a memorable and compelling record even when hearing it played live for the first time so it might make sense to hold off and keep it for the next album. I just dont know if I can wait that long lol

yeah i NEEd a new album. haha

i remember alex posting on my facebook a while ago about a deluxe version of the album. haha haven't heard about that since then! so i have no idea what's going on with that.

but i'm still looking forward to:
Chickens In Love
David Bowie cover.

is there anything else coming out from these guys?
i have a terrible memory.

Sarbear - 4-19-2010 at 04:03 PM

No, those are the only two I know of.




Ps. Thanks Phobiac for those videos
Thanks Justy for the MP3s

Yeah a deluxe album would be perfect. I think those two songs are it. The Bowie is coming out in Sept and the Chicken deal is still TBA last I checked. They have the lyrics available though and I doubt the song is more than 2 min long lol.

Hopefully its a Om Nashi me-esque rendition. :yes:

This reminds me of the scene from the movie Benny and June with Johnny Depp when Johnny Depp's character is trying to pick up his hat in a playful way.

Sarbear - 4-23-2010 at 04:19 AM

I just noticed, that Aaron Embry played piano for Eddies at Choachella.

Timmy was standing on the side of the stage. at one point Alex played with Tim's lil girl. they showed her on the big screen. it was really sweet.

elblueblazer - 4-24-2010 at 10:03 PM
