Earth - Full Performance (Live on KEXP)

I met Dylan outside a venue. I was drunk out of my mind and star struck, but knew I'd regret not talking to him. I didn't say I loved his music or anything like that, I just asked him what the biggest animal he could take in a fight was. He entertained me enough, saying "Maybe two raccoons, because I'm not very tough." Anyways, they killed it that night.

Adrienne is one of the most underrated drummers. This kind of feeling is something that many drummers of heavy music lack!

When mom and dad steal my special gummy stash.

I listen to mostly hip-hop but tbh I love this band and listen to them all the time

this band is fucking phenomenal and the drummer is a monster. the control and restraint she maintains is unrivaled

Love their album the bees made honey in the lion’s skull, seeing them on kexp feels like something they deserve

The coolest thing about this band is the constant exploration within their chosen aesthetic. There's a universe of difference between this and Extra Capsular Extraction and, honestly, had Carlson hung it up after Earth 2, he'd still get free dinners. When Sunno))) came along and picked up where that LP left off, Carlson was already moving into other corners of the amber colored slo-mo. And it never stopped. I'm particularly big on the raw, guitar / drum config they've been doing in recent years

You really don't realize how extremely difficult it is to play slow. Any tiny little mistake will just hang there in the open undisguised.

it's incredibly hard to play at these tempos while sounding coherent and steady and groovy. great drummer

that guitar tone is so goood

Nowadays everything is faster and brighter, having someone as Earth doing slow stuff is great

Had the absolute pleasure to see Earth live in D.C. at the 9:30 Club, opening for Boris. My mom and I met one of the members of the band outside the venue and because I was a little less well-versed in individual musicians I didn't realize at first and she chatted with him and then all of a sudden we're in the place and the dude walks on-stage and my brain does a fuckin skip and I had to process that we just met one of the members of Earth completely out of the blue without me realizing it. Utterly amazing band to hear live. Swear to god that when they played it was like a pressure wave pushing everyone in the audience back a little, and when they stopped playing it was like everyone shifted forward because that pressure was GONE. Brilliant. Great opener for Boris, too, they were on their Pink tour and it was a good way to get acclimated to the heaviness before Boris brought the fucking speed with the eponymous track off Pink. I was a wiry little teenager with a pair of thick frame glasses and earplugs and was afraid of the mosh pit so I left the front of the stage but god what a killer performance.

Me encanta esta banda, desde que la escuché por primera vez hace unos diez años atrás. Su música es muy profunda e introspectiva. Vivo en la ciudad de Copiapó, Chile, y siento que esta música me conecta aún más con el desierto, aunque la escuche mientras esté trabajando en la oficina. Muchísimas gracias. Abrazos y cariños desde "Copiarock-City"

her drumming is like ballet. she's great

Thank you Earth, for it all, and KEXP for sharing.

I love how the drum hits are just a part of how she is moving; she makes it look like slow motion.

Cheryl said it best. "Thank you for the gift of music that you've given us" ❤

Never tire of watching Adrienne drumming...this is music for the soul.

Cheryl Waters is a national treasure! Earth is a great band! Friday afternoon made. Thanks KEXP!

still the only band that can give me goosebumps after more than twenty years of listening: truly visionary, transcendent music.
