Bell X1 on WXPN

In all honesty i haven't given 'Bloodless Coup' the time it probably deserves. I respect Bell X1, i respect them for trying to advance their sound, taking their music on a journey from an origin that seems to be afraid to get stuck in the static environment of acoustic instrument and voice. However after listening to their show with WXPN I sometimes wish they would strip the music back alot more. The first song 'Velcro' sounds incredible, twice as incredible as its studio shadow. Take a listen to the first five minutes of this, its awesome.
