Well?

Did anyone like them? I thought they were interesting, but I can't say that I actually enjoyed them.

I thought the band on after them were better.

On the basis of "if you can't say anything nice...." I'm not saying anything.

Although I do remember exchanging WTF?!?! looks with someone next to me at the start of their first song. That was quite funny.

I must say that they weren't my cup of tea. Good to see Jones catching up with her reading during their set..

Oh dear, they went on a bit didn't they?
I did feel sorry for them as it must be very hard to play for such an un-receptive audience.

I'd bought their newest album not too long ago, and I liked it. I've never seen them live so I couldn't say what they're like in that setting, though I can see how they'd be a bit out of place in an arena. File them under "Acquired Tastes", maybe! Laughing

From their website...

BAND TO RELEASE SILENT RECORD
SINCE BANDS CAN NO LONGER SELL AUDIO, FF DECLINE TO PROVIDE IT.
Because file-sharing, or downloading, or whatever, has notoriously, or supposedly, made the production of the conventional ‘with-audio’ record obsolete, the Fiery Furnaces will release a Silent Record.
The Fiery Furnaces’ next album will consist of instruction, conventional music notation, graphic music notation, reports and illustrations.

...it's got to be an improvement!

When I heard they were gonig to be the support I had a listen and wasn't taken by it. I like to be open-minded and thought, well, perhaps I'll get into them live, but I'm afraid I didn't. Wink I actually thought the music was good in places but the incessant angry shouting as vocals was too much.
