So, so not crap. Refreshing to discover as a Hollywood resident awash in a sea of major-label pandering douchebags.

Missed them live a while back. So disappointed. NOT CRAP.

I listened o their bullshit on myspace...
CRAP I haven't seen them live

their myspace page doesn't do them justice. there are far better tracks on the record.

wait...which myspace? health or health disco. don't listen to health disco. go listen to "crimewave" or "zoothorns" or "triceratops" or something. those are good songs.

the worst part about this band is the same worst part about any band...the people at the show.

Chiming in with another "live show kills the recordings." I downloaded a track or two and thought nothing special, but went and saw them anyway once because I liked the other bands. HOLY SHIT AMAZING. The power to the amps went off and the drummer kept going with an extremely simple repeated snare hit that fit with what they were doing. Power back on, back to amazing.

I saw them again recently though. This time it sounded like listening to the record, except while watching some guys jump around. I'm not really sure what to think anymore. Because again, live show was great, record was meh. I left two songs in that time.

I like this band a lot, but I'm biased - my band toured with them for a small bit. They are the hardest working band I know at the moment - check out their Black-Flag-like touring schedule. They are humble guys with good taste, and I can easily see them putting out consistently good records for years to come. And BJ is an ace gorilla drummer who knows how to tune his tunes well.

Some people here won't like the Health Disco stuff (dance remixes, basically) so, OK, ignore that then.

I just realized i'm gonna get to see these guys three times this weekend: Tonight at the Borg Ward in Milwaukee, tomorrow at the Hideout in Chicago, and Sunday at PFork.

Excellent.
