Hey friends, I’ve been listening to Who’s In Charge from SR a lot and loving it. Since this is a biscuits board, can you all help me out and share some darker and/or untzy Biscuits jams for me to explore? Doesn’t necessarily have to be similar to this WIC jam, but I do really dig that one.
Fall 2007 was the darkest tour for the Biscuits. Here are some of my favorites. There is some attendance biases with some of these. I wouldnt listen to any of these while driving a car. Legit.
10/19/07 - Triumph → Astronaut
10/23/07 - Munchkin Invasion → Abraxas
10/26/07 - Bazaar Escape → Spaga (ending)
11/03/07 - spacebirdmatingcall → Abraxas
03/03/08 - Rock Candy
01/31/09 - Pygmy Twilight → Abraxas
02/15/09 - Iman → And the Ladies Were the Rest of the Night
One key thing to keep in mind when dipping your tip in the Biscuits is that most recommendations you get will be segments, as opposed to a single song like with UM. This is primarily because they are more known for jamming in-and-out of songs.
Dont get too caught up in inverted or dyslexic stuff just yet. All of that will make more sense once your ears get more familiar with picking out various sections of their compositions.
It can be a lot to get into, so take little baby sips.
Welcome to the dark side. Congats, your life is ruined.
Depends who you ask. Fall '07 is my favorite tour for 2.0 Biscuits, but i also saw pretty much all my favorite shows during that stretch, so there is some bias. 2009 better start to finish.
1999 and 2009 are objectively considered their gold standards.
That said, September '01 and Fall '07 are the bands peaks, IMO.
