the remixes, worth getting.

The albums wicked too


bolds!

wtf im an idiot


gig?

where they playing? i heard the drummer is fucking crazy... was this information acurate?


playing at astoria i think it is, middle of august

supporting No Age! Double Win as no age are even better
But HEALTH still rule obvs


Trust me

After seeing them live, you will be in no doubt that HEALTH absolutel crush No Age.

P.S. Live>HEALTH//DISCO>HEALTH is definetely the order of quality. The debut's still bloody good mind, and the new stuff they played in May bodes extremely well for the second album.


It's at The Scala

not Astoria

And if by 'crazy' you mean 'crazily good at playing drums' then yes, he bloody is.

Dan Deacon is playing with them as well. I think it's the best no festival line-up for a gig I'll have been to this year.


and finally

to answer your question. yes, buy the album, it's immense

perfect skin FTW!


supporting No Age

in london in august


According to the UTR site

Dan Deacon is supporting as well, which is nice.


:D

i saw them twice in the past couple of months and they were stunning both times.

azmckay: yes, the drummer is ridiculous. probably the best ever drummer i've seen live.


HEALTH

are awsome I love all the stuff HEALTH album amazing, HEALTH live an absolute beast, HEALTH//DISCO a good luagh and some ncie mixes. I prefere the original album but nowt wrong with teh remiexs at all.


any links?

links?


forbidden words

thats an unspoken about naughty


myspace?

hehe...

no I don't have any naughty links I bought all thestuff cos its ace.

You can stream

I think I've got one somewhere for the remixes too, I'll have a hunt. I'd also recommend Thank You (on Thrill Jockey) for anyone into HEALTH.


i'm seriously baffled by the love for the remix album

almost all of the remixes are ridiculously dull in terms of electro, and do very little with the original source material. the production values are pretty poor, with a lot of the remixers' synths and drum sounds sounding quite cheap and outdated. the debut's great, but all the reasons for its greatness (the energy, vast spectrum of timbres, rhythmic ingenuity) get sucked out on the remix album. i'd recommend the debut, and seeing them live even more so. maybe download the remix album for curiosity's sake


HEALTH will destroy No Age.

can't wait.

Live they are stunning. In the top 10 of best bands I've ever seen, the album is also great, don't have much interest in the remix album...

The drummer likes ales too. You've got to love any american who likes ales.


the remix album

is pretty yawn


your moustache

is pretty yawn


both albums are great

slightly prefer the original though, and yes live they are amazing. I will be going to that gig at the Scala in a few weeks. One of the best drummers i've ever seen, along with the drummer in my band and the guy from Deerhoof.

You can get the original from Rough Trade, you can't get away from it in there!
