I can't remember exactly how and when I first fell in love with UME. Some time back in early 2012 I guess. At the time I was lucky enough to see them live a while after in Paris for their first European tour. I've tried to keep up with them since, even if they don't come over here that often. I sadly missed their show at the intimate Espace B, on august 31st, 2012, just after their performance at Rock En Seine but fortunately, Rod and Indiegilles have made up for it sharing online what they could see that night (thanks guys !). So, here are parts of this show with a rough start for the band on the electric " Conductor" which soon turned into an unwanted "unplugged" version ! ;-) Here too, under the name of "Bass Face" and "Slow Pog" (?), what sounds like the in-progress draft of the coming "Too Big World" and "Oh Fate" which would later appear on "Monument" album.
Anyway,
this is a brimful UME dvd, spanning over the
last five years and showing very well how good
they've grown and how big they would truly deserve to be. I sometimes
chose to trim some shows to vary the songs (sadly no "Run Wild" or
"Pendulum" live ! - out of luck ? stage technical reasons ?) or to keep
different versions (see "Black Stone" 2011 / 2014).
When I
heard they were going to play at the British Summer Festival this summer, my
last hum and haw uncertainties were definitely swept away ! I packed up and hit
the road. I've added a few personal footage of this gig at the end of the dvd
(couldn't put more due to lack of space). Sorry for the shaky framing sometimes,
it was hard to hold it back !! :-)
So, can't
wait to see them live round again ! I still have my ticket for the teamed French
tour with Girls Vs Boys and Double Nelson back in may 2013, which eventually
had to be cancelled for the recording of "Monument". But it's been worth
the wait ! Give a listen to it, a true masterpiece !!
In the
meantime, hope you'll enjoy this one ... !!
Cheers !
