The Ocean full live set @ NY's St. Vitus!!!



Now this is the way I wish to see The Ocean! I totally agree with metalsucks' Vince Neilstein (whose article on the same you should link to from the above and read) that the twenty-five minutes on Summer Slaughter was just. Not. Enough.

This footage, which I'm just now sitting down to watch this now but I'm assuming it's Pelagial live in its entirety, the way it was meant to be played. Only a few seconds in and I can already tell that the sound is better here than it was both at HOB last month and at the Glass House when I saw them in 2010. Little clubs are always the best.

And apparently that's what this was - a surprise show at NY's Saint Vitus where they were billed under the name Pelagial (not a surprise to anyone familiar with them).

1 Minute Teaser from New Jesu Song

CBGB's Trailer



Okay, Alan Rickman and Bradley Whitford in the same movie? And Stana Katic? And all this great music? And Alan Rickman?

The last shot of this trailer completely blew me away.
