Since I was introduced to their second album Take them on, on your own back in the early noughties, I have been a fan of Black Rebel Motorcycle Club. Singer bassist Rob Been is a riffmeister with a very rhythmical style. The fact that he plays his Epi EB2 with flats and a thumb pick through an SVT with 2 Ampeg fridges and knows how to get a beautiful balanced natural sounding distortion from his setup is just a bonus to the overall sound of this band.
They played at one of the smaller medium sized venues (about 600 ppl) here in Adelaide last night and my day after impression is one of feeling like I hadn't seen a great straight genuine rock and roll show like that in quite a while.

I took a wad of pics and will post them tomorrow if anyone is interested.
