Buy The Ascension and Lesson #1. They are great. I've never seen him live, but I definitely would if I had the chance.

Zev for life!!!

I seen him. It was good. It was a trio. He did play the world's ugliest guitar though.

 
this one, in fact.

It is actually a cool concept. Making a guitar like that gives you a very odd sound ring mod like effect. I'm a little confused as to how you tune it though.

I saw him at THIS. Fucking brilliant evening.

I love avant-garde and experimental music, and to be honest I quite like Glenn Branca, but his music really isn't that interesting to me. I'd love to see him live and I always check to see if the record stores have anything of his, but I really don't like his music all that much (from the very little I've heard, that is). It's more of an intrest and appreciation for me than a real liking.

i'm a guitar 05.26.2006 10:56 AM

that guitar, the double tiesco,,,,where does he tune the strings?!?!?! observing, the guitar that should be the "hand" usually, is a entire guitar with no 'hand' upsidedown,,,,conected with the body of another guitar with no arm.
it's upsidedown,,,the lowest notes are close of the body of glenn, an the highers, away from his body,,,,,,,well i think he can turn it and play in the other side...

woah shit!

acousticrock87 05.26.2006 06:22 PM

Awesome video. Haha I like how at 0:45 he just looks up with a dead expression on his face and then goes back to thrashing.

Sheriff Rhys Chatham 05.26.2006 06:25 PM

fantastic guy.
big influence on music and style.
you should join the brance forum i created, its on his main page.

SpectralJulianIsNotDead 05.26.2006 07:46 PM

You made that Rhy? Nice work, I was just looking at that today.

kingcoffee 05.26.2006 08:30 PM

 


This is the coolest thing I have ever seen in my life.

acousticrock87 05.26.2006 08:49 PM

I think Steve Vai has some of the coolest guitars. Except for the heart one. That's kinda odd. His Ultrazone, Euphoria, and Jems are some of the best looking guitars I've ever seen.

Well i didnt really "make" it, but i designed it. Im changing the color soon because some sections are hard to read.
