video of Rockets Red Glare, a Canadian band from the late 90's, was always very hard to find. let me clarify; was impossible to find until Gus the drummer started uploading to youtube.

these guys came through indy three times in four years on tour. two of those times they played at 25th and Broadway. the first time i was going out with someone, was in mid conversation with her on the porch, and went inside to see how loud noises from the other side of the glass looked. i was pretty blown away. the second time i saw them i had recently been broken up with, so knowing a few of the songs and knowing where to stand for premium volume levels turned into one of the most cathartic experiences of my early 20's.

they only put out a handful of recordings. a 7" and two full lengths. the first full length was one of those 'theyve been playing the same songs for two or three years so theyre perfect.' the second album was indeed rushed and not as powerful, but still rocks the shit out of 80% of what any three piece band anywhere can do.

Rockets Red Glare. you should like them.
