None. It's like they've never really lived up to the hype and attending live music events has somehow always made me uncomfortable. Same with movie theatres.
The most immersive and impactful musical experiences I've had have been me sitting alone listening.
KC Roberts and the Live Revolution tend to release highly produced tracks, but awesome live too.
ADRV
Cajun and Creole art nerds throw the best parties.
Quite a few:
- Underworld
- Chemical Brothers
- Beastie Boys
- Black Grape
- Puressence
- Songhoy Blues
- Pulp
- Alabama 3
- Jim White
- Portishead
- Beth Gibbons (of Portishead, but solo)
- Kog and the Zongo Brigade
Probably a few others :-)
"A". New-wave metal punk. They supported The Offspring back in 2000 when they were touring and blew them completely out of the water (and The Offspring are GREAT live too) and they have been my favourite band ever since.
I HIGHLY recommend their album "Monkey Kong" with some decent headphones.

Polysics. Great energy.
Dogs in a pile - awesome jam band
True Body. Went to a show to see Pharmakon and True Body opened for them. The stage presence was intense and I can't wait to see them again if the opportunity arises
I saw "No Men" play a tiny show and it's still one of my favorites. They put on a great show and also they were super friendly with everyone in the crowd. I saw them another time after at a bigger venue and they even remembered me and my friend.
