Part Chimp | Live APW Session

Taking a bit of a rest after 2009's "Thriller", Part Chimp returned to our earholes in 2017 with "Iv", and it was like they'd never been away. Amps were in the room for this session instead of isolation cabinets so It got loud, it was glorious, and here it is! Five tracks!
00:0 - Part Chimp "Mapoleon" Live at The APW
03:17 - Part Chimp "Solid Gone" Live at The APW
07:47 - Part Chimp "Namekuji" Live at The APW
11:56 - Part Chimp "Bad Boon" Live at The APW
16:39 - Part Chimp "Bring Back The Sound" Live at The APW

Huge thanks to silver-rocket.org for sharing this video!! 😃

[@glettyguitars]

This band should be so big.. totally underrated.

[@itsMrNoble]

I saw Part Chimp in London in about 2001 and my ears are still ringing.

[@TheAPW]

We were worried that we'd get complaints while recording (it was a bit loud for that time of the morning) but we got away with it. They drove those amps hard, even in the studio!

[@itsMrNoble]

The APW Yeah they might be the loudest band I’ve ever seen. Having said that I had seen Tim’s previous band Ligament a couple of times too beforehand so I was sort of prepared.

[@thovex]

saw them with mogwai in 2003 in brooklyn and my ears are still ringing too lol

[@Hifidelics]

This recording sounds way better than the album!

[@spasmband]

WOW!!!! WHAT A BAND, WHAT A SOUND!!!!

The sound on this is fantastic.

[@mitchdavies9171]

hey Tim. Love it the big sound.

[@hellion7514]

How am I only just discovering these dudes?! 🤘

[@andrewmcdonnell826]

There was an episode of The Late Junction (2003?) with Tim Cedar playing with Quickspace. It sounded otherworldly. Wish it would appear again.

[@Geert355]

This is how good music sounds like!!!!!!

[@muheburrahmanshaha37]

Fuck me, that opening riff!

[@mattjammy9884]

[@jimbojagv8541]

Wow...
Awesome

[@GrognakTheBarbarian]

good sound that one. it´s the bass man. fucking heavy.

[@alexkerrblack]

whoever edited this....fuck yeah

[@djefferson5669]

Mark Arm slays on the drums!

[@damanlidison]

😄
There's some resemblance!

[@geeeeeeeezzzzzzzzzz]

Nodding off to sleep last night with the radio playing I heard a new band to me that I thought interesting. These guys. It's like orchestral metal or something.

[@burningdreamer13]

Intense ! Come to Bordeaux !!

[@jinglebells4253]

This band makes me want to ride a dinosaur

[@Shelbsterina]

Amazing ❤️

[@badgerag]

Oh YEAH!!!

[@GnomeOfficial]

🤘

[@smellyou]

Wow and they got Mark Arm on drums!

[@akillen77]

So fucking sick!

[@418a5150]

love them

[@EYEBALLband]

ROCKS!

[@deinemuttiband]

💯

[@geofflee6038]

amazinggggg

[@BenedictFarse]

In the same way no man could ever emulate Enya, no woman could ever do a Part Chimp. Totally Masculine. The sort of band that makes you want to ride a T-Rex naked.

[@barriobarranco]

Looks like April 13th Preston is gonna be a sonic attack....!!

[@stevencowie7151]

GODS. ❤

[@nathandavidzipf]

Rocknroll!

[@fried_out]

I didnt know Gabe Newell is in a band.

[@TheAPW]

So that's what happened to Half Life 3!

[@JamesRMcHenry]

#heroes

[@TheAPW]

Totally ❤

[@georgeatack9031]

sickk

[@JL-mu9sl]

Who's the grandpa on lead guitar? Leslie West?

[@aboriteko]

I putted the other dislike because to balance the stupid first one, I really like it! love em

[@kipkasper1796]

Is it drop B tuning they play in?

[@TheAPW]

Iain is in drop B, however Tim has all his strings tuned to B at different octaves. Just B and nothing but B :-)

[@kipkasper1796]

Ah right. That's a very strange way to have it tuned, never would have guessed that. Thank you!

[@mescaliiiiine]

@@TheAPW WHAT ??

[@TheAPW]

Absolutely true! You can hear it in full effect in the opening licks of Mapoleon and Solid Gone.

[@SixteenJacobsCreams]

@@TheAPW Fuck I assumed it was some weird octaver but that makes way more sense. Nice!
