Holy Fuck vs. The National (festival clash #1)

Which one should I see at T in the Park this year? I like both bands equally musically, so it all depends on which is better live.



  • NATIONAL

  • The National

    x 1000

  • National

    The

  • The National

    No contest

  • The National

    I mean, seriously

  • Seen them both

    National @ ULU

    and Holy Fuck @ John Peel, Glastonbury.

    They are both seriously amazing live. Which is a crap answer I realise. Flip a coin?

  • non

    Aphex Twin followed by Richie Hawtin are playing the Slam tent. Justice is even before that. Why any one would see The National or Holy Fuck above those is beyond me...

    Aphex is a legend and one of the true pinoeres of modern music.

    Hawtin is a true legend also and helped shape techno from pretty much the beggining.

    The National will probibly be forgoten in 10 years time.

    • Oh yeah! Aphex Twin!

      DAMMIT! Now it's a three-way tie! I'm worried Aphex Twin's show will go right over my head though, and I'll end up disappointed.

      • Its not a maths test

        its like a normal dance music set but yuo know rly rly good.

        • actually you have to

          go watch Aphex, i've decided for you. Raving to Vordshobn(?) on my own having lost friends is one of the greatest things i have ever done.

          • I would have to agre

            I would love to see Aphex Twin live what ever he does is bound to be an event. The National are just gona play all the songs from their albums. Aphex will supries ya.

      • Just see what mood your in

        on the day thats maybe the bestist option.

  • I'll be at The National!

  • The National are the most boring live band in the world

  • I went to see both at glasto

    on the same stage. National by a whisker. Also, HF tour a LOT more in the UK so I'm sure you'll get another chance.

  • aren't editors on?

    watch holy fuck and then catch editors later on. same difference

    • I like this man ^

      i would also like to vote for Aphex Twin again. This is like X Factor right? i vote as many times as i want?

  • pleaseeee

    go and see the national. please.

  • clearly aphex

    coz he gets 50k an hour.

    and as we all know
    money rules.

  • Both great live bands

    but it has to be the National.

  • HOLY FUCK

    One of the best live bands I've ever seen.
    So fucking massive. So much energy.
    Amazing!

  • you poor fucker

    both are great live but go see The National

  • saw both at Glastonbury

    National ftw. easy

  • National

    amazing live!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    • but ignore that

      and go see Aphex Twin

      • Do you know that they'll clash

        or are you basing that on the fact their names appear at the same placing in the line up?

        I'm going to have to opt for HF I think, purely cos I have seen The National 3 times already

  • I vote

    for The Fuck (so to speak).

  • Make up your OWN mind!

    they are quite different bands.. just go with the one that you are more in the mood for that day!

  • HOLY FUCK

  • Fuck the National live, rainy day music, go and dance to the propulsive Holy Fuck (and Aphex).

  • I've heard good things about Holy Fuck live.

    Everyone loves the National but I've never heard any glowing comments about them live.
