I've got a pretty good Casiotone for the Painfully Alone recording which I made in Bristol a couple of months ago which I'll be uploading next I think but for today I present to you Why? live in Denver last year. I thought Alopecia was shit when I first listened to it but Duncan over at Faces in the Sand kept raving about it so I gave it another go and a few listens later I was hooked. Finding out that they supported Silver Jews certainly helped me to learn to love them I think, although they sound nothing alike and the lyrics are very different one can certainly compare their wordplay. Both Yoni Wolf and David Berman have a way with words, it's as though they invented English between them and they have the ability to twist and turn words into shapes you would never think of.
This live recording and YouTube clips is all I have got until Yoni and Co. come back to the UK cause I've not been able to catch them yet. This 16 song set from Hi-Dive in Denver, Colorado features mostly songs from Alopecia and a few older ones, the sound quality is great, enjoy :-)
