Lightning Bolt.

Shannon Wright and Sleater Kinney @ the Highlands in Hollywood Sept 02

that shit was FUCKING LOUD. I could not hear for days, it was like living at the bottom of a pool, me and my girlfriend were straight screaming at each other on Hollywood Blvd just to have conversation..

loud loud loud..

and I have been to some exceptionally loud shows, but that shit was painfully ridiculous..

The Earl Of Slander · 04.20.2009, 04:34 AM

Boris a few years back were seriously fucking loud, but then again it was in a small club and my first "proper" loud gig experience, so....

Keiji Haino and Merzbow playing together in a church definitely crushed some eyes.

and the fall last year

add to that list melt banana and my bloody valentine, not throughout the gig, they slowly intensified the volume during the gig and by the end of it it was deafening....

after that
lightning bolt
!!! and the fall

I was a bit surprised when Dälek (both times I've seen em) or Boris didn't blow my soul off as they've both been touted as wonderfully loud. Boris were loud but didn't exceed the ridiculous level.

this might sound lame but when i saw MEN play a few months ago at the 9:30 club i almost threw up from the noise level. the sound guys had pumped the bass up way too loud for silly electro pop.

SuperCreep · 11.25.2009, 02:59 AM

i saw melt-banana the other night. they were pretty damn loud. i'm still sure boadrum 9 was louder and maybe boris were too, but melt-banana are definitely up there.

Florya · 11.25.2009, 04:13 AM

LOOP were pretty loud - especially in a small venue, but the loudest gig by a long way was SWANS at the ZAP in Brighton. First gig of their UK Holy Money tour.
The PA was the same as they used for the rest of the tour, playing big venues like the Astoria and National Ballroom, but the ZAP in those days was about the size of a double garage. When the bass and drums hit together, it drove all the air from my lungs and I could feel my guts churning. Took about 3 days for my hearing to recover - I was deaf on the train home.
