Paik (the band, not Nam June)
 
After a little search on the forum, I noticed that the only boarders (not counting me) that ever mentioned them are:
Toilet & Bowels (he put them on a list of recommendations)
Phlegmascope (he put them on a "Things that have raised my interest" list)
Savage Clone, who said "The main guy in Paik is one of the coolest looking rock dudes I have seen in recent years." and "
Paik should change their name to Fucking Rock Power." among other things
charlie (mentioned them in the terrastock lineup)
darthblav (mentioned them in a sort of "metal" list)
trance feedback (mentioned them in a "band with non standard tuned guitars and asked how was their set at terrastock)
I probably missed some others, but not many.

Nobody else listens/likes them on this board?

www.beyonderrecords.com
http://www.myspace.com/paikspace
to check some samples and stuff.

I have never heard of them.

what do they SOUND like?

nicfit 06.01.2007 04:25 PM

Like a sandpaper heaven. (?) To me this makes some sense.

Edit : this link (kinda silly) is quite good to get an idea: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KqRIWyLi1L4

they're a sort of "space rock", "post rock", droney thing, each record is quite different from the others.

nicfit 06.05.2007 02:30 PM

Noooouh... :( I don't even know if they ever toured italy... Well, we'll hire them for our wedding, 'kay? But I bought their dvd, so at least I have an idea of their live performances.

Can I offer my services as best man? Or an usher?

nicfit 06.05.2007 02:58 PM

23$ , international shipping included!
Get it while the £ $ exchange rate is so good ;)
Beware, the video quality is kinda bad, but the sound is good/really good (in my opinion), I was kinda disappointed in the beginning, but when the music kicks in you won't even care about the video, to an extent.

Good good. What song(s) did you listen to? Remember?

nicfit 06.12.2007 08:47 AM

This band makes my mind drift in a really peculiar way. I think that's the reason why I like them so much. They're not a "groundbreaking" band, but still--- oh, no need to promise, I suggest you to listen to something from "corridors" and then something from "satin black" to get the "full spectrum" of their music. Hope you'll enjoy them.

So, when will we get married, exactly?
