  • una copia mala y careta de days of the new

  • A little too much flanger you think?

  • This performance was great. I love it.

  • Fake ass creed wannabe

  • Love them. Love this.

  • Miss them <3

  • Nice music and full vocal!

  • I can't swim. So you know what? I stay the fuck out of the water. You don't like Tantric, don't watch their videos.

  • epic XD

  • Awesome song from awesome band!

  • Na żywo brzmi tak samo świetnie!

  • Todd Whitener has a new band Recourse To Reason on facebook! They just put up their sample today. Please go to the page and like it to help spread the word!!!

    -Matt M

  • if the guitar player took half the time to tune his 3000 dollar parker than he did to make his hair look like that they might still be together

  • this performance rocked. idk what these faggots complaining about the key expect from a live rock performance...

  • I don't care that these dudes were heavily influenced by AIC, etc., they wrote some great tunes in their own write.

  • this is freakin tight we need influences like that now...musically lil tired of elctro still love but damn everyones doing it

  • I love the lead singer's unique voice. You ALWAYS know when it's a Tantric song, just wait for the voice!

  • yeah thats right wwe2dragon.....i agree

  • Most of you guys are idiots. Like the dude before said, Todd is using a flanger, guitar effect, his guitar isn't fucking outta tune

  • @wwe2dragon nope, he's right, the two guitars playing together are out of tune...

  • @wwe2dragon This is a flangered out of tune guitar.

  • Dude's playing in the wrong key.

  • i saw these guys live at the 95.5 BRU Birthday Bash in Providence RI at Lupos back on 28 Nov 2001. I still got my ticket stub right here. They played with 311, Adema, and Lit.

  • @RiffRock51 Adema and 311? Sounds like the shit. I saw them with Burn Halo here in Texas.

  • @megabeast102 Yeah man, the show rocked, great bill. I took a bus all the way from Amherst MA to Boston and then drove down to Providence to go to the show. Worth it.

  • The effect he has on is guitar is a flanger. It detunes the guitar as a simulation of the old technique of pressing your finger on the flange of the reel to reel tape recorders. Its easy to overdoo it though as this is an example. The delay is also in his mix and being turned on at some points is not the same. Maybe his tech was the one who overdid it since I don't see any pedals on the floor.

  • he must be stoned out of his mind to call himself a musician and still think that is in tune! haha

  • vioshock website

  • vioshock

  • nice song

  • Can Todd not hear that his guitar sounds like crap?

  • They should send Travis Meeks there checks. He made all of them except hugo and he was made in a douchse bag factory.

  • @sawdoff1100 yeah, and Travis Meeks should send his checks to Alice in Chains

  • these guys owe their career at Travis Meeks.

  • @27419917 No they don't . They all have talent thats how they got there careers . 1 person isn't going to make a whole band famous

  • @JJordan1012 Travis meeks is the best

  • this band has bad ass music, but they look like shit. and i agree that the guitarist is out of tune

  • way to much delay imo

  • And he kisses good too!!

  • Damn, lead singer looks like Scott Stapp...glad it ain't tho...lol.

  • AHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!! Nickelback guy!!!

  • Hugo did pretty well with staying on key. Todd was way off.

  • they sound untuned

  • damn i love this song, but here sound horrible

  • Ahaha, our guitarist just got the same hair a few ago! Its sick.

  • This song is really great, but wtf with the guitar?? Even Todd Whitener chorus are so out of tune, and Hugo is like i´m not in the mood for singing tonite. Tantric can do much better than this.

  • heroin? yes please

  • No!! Alot of times these "Shows" don't have good people on the boards...

  • great song..........right. the guitar is out of tune............which is hard to do with a Parker Fly

  • holy shit! the guitar is actually out of tune!

  • It's actually the intonation of that guitar. Parkers are highly over priced and really don't play that great. My guess would be the only reason he's playing it at all is because of an endorsement.

  • @mustar8 no dude, its called delay...

  • @mustar8 Yeah it sounds a little off.

  • @mustar8 no shit and it makes the singer sound ridiculous

  • @mustar8 very

  • @mustar8 thats what key they have it tuned to DUMB SHIT

  • sounds like shit. LOL Great song, but there is a lot of stuff wrong with the sound here

  • it's not the delay, it's out of tune.

  • they look and sound like a F8ckin boy band - days of the new is so much better

  • hugo's live voice since this has declined SOOO much

  • buen grupo.....

  • i heart tantric

    todd's hair was the shit then

  • OMG. He does not have his delay synced right..

  • So I'm not the only one that noticed it.

  • I loved Tantric back in the day. It's not what it used to be....but it's still alright.

  • would be so much better with Travis Meeks singing

  • Yeah. Travis is a musical prodigy

  • i still think this sounds crappy on electric, acoustic is perfect for the main riff.

  • when was this aired?!

  • well because there playing Breakdown, and he was holding the first album.... I'm guessing around 2002.

  • why did you put under more info: this is a song by a great band who now only have 1 original member. There are tons of bands with only 1 original member. Killswitch engage, all that remains, iron maiden, countless bands

  • First of all, there are three remaining original members from KSE, Adam D & Mike & Joel, so that comment immediately fails!

    Second of all, the examples you gave, didn't lose all of their members but 1 in one go. Members left one by one...

  • Scott Stapp + Travis Meeks + a touch of Sully from Godsmack and you have this lead singer, haha. Good song, a little poppy compared to Days of the New but still a hit single none the less.

  • lead singers name is HUGO FERREIRA.. and yes they were formed from DAYS OF THE NEW... very deep band that did not last long enough...

  • ok i dont give a fuck how or who they sound like*although i though it was scot stapp at first lol * this band kicks ass and some just plz tell me wat the hell the lead singers name iz?

  • ok...tantric...lead singer is hugo ferreira...the lead guitarist is todd whitener (hes my cousin) drums...matt taul the other guitarist is kevin McCreery....

  • Someone please tell me if im wrong but i think the band is all the guys that were in days of the new with a different singer so i think they sound like days of the new, this album was great

  • sounds like scott stapp and pearl jam i like both. this guys too very cool!! Tantric is there name huh so well are they guys from the 90's or two thousands?

  • 2000's

  • HEY FUCKHEADZ!!! why are you keep saying that they look like this,,, they sound like this... blah blah blah!!! so what's the big deal bout having the same image.. the same sounds??? are they going to die? areyou going to die? of course all people to have a lot of similarities.. so just shut up.. watch and listen to their music.. not on the fucking childish comments!!!

  • spoken like a true fan

  • didnt say he sounded like him... DUMBASS!!!

  • what dumb faggot motherfucker said this bnd was trying to sound like alice in chains? and to all those dumb fannys, i said scott stapp anyone? not creed. if you r not seeing that the singer kinda looks like stapp, made need your eyes checked.

  • Hahaha It's the faggot Down bellow named Jwall707 that said they are trying to be like Alice in chains. LMAO and that he doesnt look like scott stapp. And he does, The hair, the stance, everything is a mirror image of scott stapp. hahahahaha what a joke

  • Okay that makes sense, so if I look like a singer than I sound like him dumbass. It doesn't matter what you look like go listen to down and out and the one, The songs are not even close.

  • Actually Todd is a huge fan of Alice in chains.

  • damnn now that u said the g string is flat i can totally hear it ... hahaha

    great song though

  • It was hard to enjoy it with that guitar out of tune

  • i would have felt like beating my guitar tech if i had to muck thru a performance like this because the guitar is clearly flat on the g string.having said that good song and a good band.

  • nah. Not at all.

  • dude he totally is. its soo fucking obvious lol fuck all these people, I give you a thumbs up

  • These guys try to be more like alice in chains dumbass. Creed is not even close. Creed sucks.

  • Haha wtf do you know about music? Not a god damn thing. you have nothing but sports bullshit on your page. Even the look, and stance, and how he moves is exact to the creed frontman

  • Just because I like sports doesn't mean I don't know about music dumbass. How he moves? lol I don't really give a shit how he looks or moves moron, I just listen to the music and it doesn't sound like creed. Why dont you go listen to any of his other songs, the melody and the fast pace of the songs don't sound even close dumbass. Just because you have bands on your page doesn't mean you know anything about good music. Meshuggah? they suck ball sack, learn how to sing and not yell.

  • Hahaha you really don't know a god damn thing about music. I've been playing all instruments since I was 9 and now enrolling to berkley for music douchebag. And if you DID know anything about music you would know that it takes more talent and practice to scream than it does to sing. What a faggot douchebag brainless idiot. You represent the braindead moron sports people. Hahaha. Thats why you like Tantric. LMAO You=FAIL

  • LOL it takes more to scream and yell than to write lyrics and actually sing them? what hash have you been smoking? And just because you have played instruments don't mean you know GOOD music dumbass. Tantric is an alright band not on my top list fool. My favorite bands are Nirvana, Linkin Park, Pearl Jam, AC/DC, Audioslave, Foo Fighters, Smile empty soul, or in other words good bands. You=I don't give a shit what you think because I know what good music is and your a dumb douche.

  • Hahahaha Linkin Park? Hhahahahahaha. You = fail once again. hahahahaha. fucking hilarious.

  • Linkin park-before they went mainstream. If you think that they suck your the dumbass, have you ever heard hybrid theory and Meteora? If you think those albums suck you suck. Everything you say sounds like something coming out my ass.

  • LMFAO Hahahaha, you argue like a fucking 12 year old. Hahaha I know more about music than you could ever even comprehend. You can't even play a single fucking chord on any instrument, yet you think you have the best opinon and knowledge of music. Nope. you fail. horrible. You should just kill urself. You are really making urself look stupid. Go jerk off to some football videos faggot .

  • What you just said sounded like a 12 year old. Lay off the crack pipe for a day or so. My 12 year old brother can spell better than you, lol. You just make me laugh. You think you know so much more than me because you can play an instrument. I'm going to put caps on this next phrase because it's hard for you to comprehend me because of the combination of your crack pipe and your overall dumbass thought of mind, LISTENING TO MUSIC IS DIFFERENT THAN PLAYING AN INSTRUMENT.

  • like I give a shit about how well I spell on youtube. Playing music and studying it gives you much more of an understanding of how it works. Listening to Linkin Park does NOT make you even come close to undestanding. It gives you a completely different view of music than a normal douchbag like yourself when you can actually compose it compared to just fucking listening to it. Now quit trying to out do me because it's not working,just making yourself look like even more of a jackass.

  • "The braindead moron sports people" wow you are just terrible at arguing. First of all, music is different for all people, some people think Cher is the greatest of all time, some people, like you, try to oppress people into your own sheltered view of music. Since you're "studying music at berkley" (which you spelled wrong, genius), appreciate different kinds of music. Go listen to something out of your realm. Country, or even better, wrap your brain around some Motown.

  • Oh yeah I forgot how important it is to spell correctly on youtube. Hahaha, Is that the best you ppl got? Actually, If you knew me you would know My taste in music is very broad, And you don't know me. So shut the fuck up and quit actin like you do. And yes, people that follow sports and brain dead fucks and completely distracted by unimportant shit. Period. Go watch some Foxnews or Foxsports. u know what, Just sit infront of the tv and drool all over yourself.

  • So athletes are lazy fucks who drool over themselves? Hmm.... so lacrosse players at Yale and Harvard are braindead fucks? Makes sense I guess...

  • what are you fucking twelve? You misunderstood what I was saying douchebag, People that watch that shit are zombies. Obviously. Otherwise you would have caught on quicker. haha. what a joke.

  • These guys try to be more like alice in chains dumbass. Creed is not even close. Creed sucks ball sack and don't sound like them.

  • hehe i love the guitarist's little bounce at the beginning X3

  • guitar is out of tune

  • you're right. it's flat.

    can't imagine not tuning before playing on a stage like this.

  • good catch

  • lead singer really does look like scott staff

  • Scott Stapp, Maybe.

    But Definitely Not Scott Staff.

  • Comment removed

  • ha! in the beginning the drummer looks like its hard for him to keep that steady beat lol

  • haha yeah it does, but matt taul was an amazing drummer, listen to their studio stuff

  • scott stapp blows

  • how the fuck did u get on the subject of stapp???

  • who sings this song????

    jk mad good song lol

  • dude....are you ok?

    Can't you read the title?

    T a n t r i c - breakdown.

    Damn man....

  • dude how about this are you ok??

    do u know how to read man

    look at my whole comment

    at the bottom if u can read

    it saya "jk mad good song lol"

    do u know what jk means?

    i was kidding i know what the song is called u retard i was kidding

  • lolhe looks like fuckin scott stapp here

  • Dude so true.

  • OMG tune that G string haha

  • holy shit I know!!! I knew I couldn't be the only one who thought that

  • no shit hey!!!too mch chorus too...this is a great song...but they are never able to produce the groove that they had on the studio version.i realize that not all live performances are perfect...but im yet to hear them tear this song up live.

  • Damn, I love this song

  • when i first heard this band i thought it was the second coming of alice in chains, not saying their as good, but hugo and todd definitely reminded me of layne and jerry.

  • Good version of the song but I thought Hugo did not sound as good as on the studio version. I guess that happens a lot with live performances. Nevertheless, Hugo rocks!!!

  • On TV Chat shows such as this, songs are never performed at the bands normal standard. That's generally a trend with any band. Production and setup just isn't as good.

    Like you said though, this is still a good performance.

  • I agree completely. If you can relate to the song on multiple levels, you can find that live performances are great in other ways. Anyway, thanks for the feedback!

  • Uhmm Stone Temple Pilots, Alice in Chains, and Pearl Jam sound 100% the same on acoustic and electric live shows.

  • Thanks for the comment. You are right and I did not mean to apply my previous comment to all bands. I should have been more clear.

  • he sounds better here than he does now...He sounds like he's choking whenever they play live now

  • Why does it matter that there's only one true member. SO Hugo stuck through thick and thin. Big whoop. At least he kept the band still going.

  • because he kept the name, even though the members and the sound are completely different

  • So they're supposed to change the band name every time someone new gets initiated?

    Wow, a lot of big bands wouldn't have made it that way.

  • no, but when you lose 75% of the core of your band, there's no point in calling themselves tantric anymore you idiot..look at how many people have problems with axl using guns and roses as his bands name.

  • Haha.

    Well. It's not like they changed the singer.

    They still sound the same.

    And I don't appreciate you calling me an idiot.

    We have different opinions that we're entitled to. No point trying to argue through it when it's not going to change anything.

  • but they don't sound the same, thats my point

  • the song's awsome but you know what?, this was suck, alot of noise i heard and not music, the presentation was shit, i think, but i'll keep listening to the amazing song (mp3 of course)...

  • I bet some guitar tech got yelled at after this, you see the look on his face when he switches to the dirty channel?

  • really cool delay, even out of tune

  • guitar outta tune a bit. amazing song. dude his hair is fuckin awesome. the lead singer may look like scott stapp but he has waaay more talent.

  • posers like fukking creed!

  • yea. the guitars are definately out of tune.. someones b string is f-ed up

  • Try the G-string, and its not out of tune. Its just because they have so much fucking delay on it!

  • no, its definitely out of tune.

  • WHOA THEIR BUDDY!

    ADVICE:guitar dude with the crazy hair, either take it out of the damn ponytail or get it cut!

    it looks like shit

    btw good song guys :)

  • Is it just me or does it seem like his guitar is out of tune . I seen them last month and it sounded the same way. when I get a chance I will post it I video taped it.

  • his guitar isnt out of tuned, its detuned to D flat

  • I actually like it better like this. I don't know about you guys, but I like this better than the album version.

  • i know this has nothing to do with the vidio much less your comment but i love chester :)

    and the rest of em :) LP FOR LIFE!

  • Singer look a little like Scott Stapp to everyone else? Hope he doesn't have his attitude :p.

  • I was just thinking that... and then got angry, cause Scott's a DBag. I hope so doesn't have an attitude also.

  • lol, as much kick assness as this band is....pig tails on a dude drummer...its just a little funny......

  • great live performance of Breakdown

  • Trantric and Conan.....can't go wrong. great vid!

  • Just wondering what everyone else thinks... I love Tantric and all, but doesnt the guitarist look like Joe Dirt with that hair lol... the Joe at the end of the movie with the hair transplant haha

  • HAHAHA OUT OF TUNE GUITAR!!!!what a noob guitarist

  • tenia tiempo sin saber de esa banda muy buena, are they coming back?

  • Yes...new album coming out on april 4, 08.

  • thanks man

  • Correction...April 22, 2008.

  • love the intro...orgasmic

  • check out the hair man! awesome

  • Great sOng

  • brutal........great song.......out a tune

  • tantric's dead they broke up in march. R.I.P

  • TANTRIC is dead! Long live TANTRIC! Not one to give up, vocalist and remaining original member Hugo Ferriera pressed on and turned it all around.

  • THE END BEGINS truly closes the door on what TANTRIC used to be and shows rock fans everywhere what can be done with talent, passion and a unique take on what modern Rock & Roll should sound like."Every ending gives birth to a new beginning," says vocalist Hugo Ferreira. "The previous lineup is gone and that enabled me to bring in people with a whole new perspective."

  • Now joining Ferreira is Kevin Miller (ex-FUEL), Joe Pessia,Erik Leonhardt, and a most unusual addition, classically trained violin player, Marcus Ratzenboeck. "We are treating his violin like a guitar," Ferriera says. "Marcus comes from a classical background and he brings that to the rock music we are making... it sounds so fresh and different."

  • The fresh sound permeates THE END BEGINS. Beginning this particular 'end' was the band's deal with Jeff Hanson's (Creed, Paramore) Silent Majority Records. The album was being written and, according to Hugo he "was in limbo, not sure what he was going to do," until the SMG deal breathed life into his process. Giving up was not an option for Ferreira "I had the band name tattooed on me, so there was no going back," he joked.

  • "Everything in my life was invested toward this. Ultimately I'd rather just survive and do what I love rather than do anything else.":Ferreira says.

  • The new lineup wanted to bring back producer and '6th band member,' Toby Wright. "The band has created a new sound that hits you hard and sticks in your head" says Wright. Hanson says "I always loved Hugo's voice but I thought the band may be done. Then I heard the new songs the band had written and I immediately knew there would be another chapter in this book." The story of TANTRIC is far from over. One listen to the band's brand new material and it all begins again!

  • Ive literally just heard this song on a finishing episode of a programme called the shield. Its so powerful with that I've just gone and bought all of their abulms. Could of downloaded it but wanted to buy their music legit. New fan as of last night. Wish pub juke boxes could store this band's music.

  • this band rocks!! the lead singer (who's voice doesn't suck) is incredible..he sounds the same live as he does on the album
