Last week Dan and myself got the chance to catch Le Loup live in Crawdaddy and I have to say it was absolutely deadly. There’s a certain rawness and energy that doesn’t come through on the album (The Throne of the Third Heaven of the Nations’ Millennium General Assembly). Live Le Loup really let loose and rockout. It’s a little more guitar based live too and unfortunately for us Tripod sound engineers failed to give the banjo enough volume that its essential melodies required.

Anyway I guess the jist of what I’m saying is that Le Loup are a whole other experience live. If you missed their crawdaddy show last week, fret not for the excellent Seattle based alternative music radio station KEXP recorded a live set of theirs and it’s available as a podcast here. There’s a brilliant song which didn’t make it onto the album called ‘The Sea took me’ that kicks in at about the 25 minute mark.
