[QUOTE="JonnyP, post: 674251, member: 17918"] Interesting graphic with the decibel levels. I have seen some of the loudest bands in the world live (well, according to Guiness records one of them but the other is usually noted as louder) having seen/been pummelled live by Swans (in excess of 140dB at some gigs), and My Bloody Valentine (132dB measured). Swans have been known for making peoples' ears bleed, making them faint, not so MBV although this may be more due to the sheer crush and disorientation caused by the sound levels (I got bounced in front of the stack sideways on at a gig once and it was very disorienting). Interesting to see they reach into jet engine territory! [/QUOTE]
