Abingdon Boys School-Howling LIVE

[KazexHogosha]

I'M FUCKIN SICK OF EVERYONE BAGING ON THE US! YES, IT'S TRUE THESE GUYS ARE GOOD BUT WE ALSO HAVE SOME GOOD PEOPLE TOO. FUCKIN WEEABOO'S!

[TMRHTCT03]

@KazexHogosha damn it, stop judging people, it is just their opinion, it's not like any of them stated it as a fact

[Schizophrenik1]

japan rule ! :D

[katarjin]

any other Japanese bands like these guys? im more into rock but ill give anything a try

[TMRHTCT03]

@katarjin You should try ONE OK ROCK, UVERworld, MUCC (Their earlier music if you want something heavier and newer music if you want something with more variety, like reggae, jazz, hard rock, pop etc, i'm sure there's alot more, but these are the ones that came up first, my personal favorite is MUCC, but feel free to choose what fits your taste

[katarjin]

thanks for posting this so far im liking these guys

[supernaruto24]

now that is how a concert is supposed to be everyone jumping in sequence and symmetry XD

[DrDazzleFTW]

Jesus, we're glad you guys love Jpop and shit, but stop making wild accusations about music in the US because you're weaboos.

[TMRHTCT03]

@DrDazzleFTW isn't that ironic, youre complaining about them making accusations about some US bands when you're doing the same thing to them calling them weabos, it's just their opinion, doesn't mean they're weabos

[tyfeller7]

loving how the whole crowds ins sync ^^

[gameguru36]

am i the only one who noticed that there pit is almost perfectly in sinc o.o

[eras4ever]

Quisiera estar ahiiiii!!!!!!!!

[Mametiganabijem]

He sings really great ^____^

[anikid0392]

HOLY CRAP!!!!!

[zerosquadron1]

It's amazing that in US when most artists go live they sound different from their studio voices, but when asians do live a performance they don't miss a beat.

[TMRHTCT03]

@zerosquadron1 That's just a stereotype, there are probably US bands that perform good, also as there are Japanese bands that are bad live

[zerosquadron1]

@TMRHTCT03 True that you do have a valid point there.



[cheeselady67]

@TMRHTCT03 I agree with the that being asterotype

[cheeselady67]

Respond to this video...  i seriously love the "falling, falling.....hiding in the shadow" part1!1 so amazing

[cheeselady67]

Respond to this video... could do without the screming though i have to say!

[InFamousGamingIG]

@TMRHTCT03 Its just music these days like Rap and Etc they make the fans sing it to avoid the part. xD

[haakonwale]

@zerosquadron1 It's just that the mainstream American "musicians/artists" edit their voices in the studio, so they sound sucky live when they can't do that.

[kwhyland]

@zerosquadron1Good U.S.band live= Red Hot Chili Peppers

[zerored3mption]

@zerosquadron1 I do not know everything about there culture but they might not make a habit out of over editing the work. I see that as the biggest problem with American artists, there is not as much talent as before they all rely on technology as a crutch.

[DrDazzleFTW]

@zerosquadron1 There are many factors that contribute to live sound. This was obviously a huge venue, and they intended to record this, so they'd make sure everything was mic'd up. Many bands are faithful to their recordings, they just don't always get to play in the best venues.

[fReEdoMzHAlo]

THIS IS SO MUCH BETTER THAN THE ACTUAL TRACK!

[killkilllaugh2]

He has nice lips

[BliztCreamBOY]

basist was hiding in the shadows with this song XD camera didnt zoom in at him lol, hard to see his face he was on the left side of the stage behind the guitarist

[TMRHTCT03]

@BliztCreamBOY Ikou and Koji are just support members, they don't have to be in the frong of the stage

[BliztCreamBOY]

@TMRHTCT03 oouuhh ok thx for explaining it for me, i didnt knew they were support members

[tojushiro]

One day he is gonna kill his voice XD

So awesome, I would love to see them live!

[basstax]

@tojushiro He's not screaming hard enough to kill his voice. He'll be fine (he's been doing this for like 15+ years now...)

[corycool]

Is that Sebastian from Black Butler on guitar? lol

[maxbrabus911]

hey after see this linking park socks!!

[artie80234]

Goodness I hate having a 42inch computer monitor. I couldn't see their awesomeness as clear as I wanted to. Oh well...they still rock my socks off :)

[AnimeGirlMai07]

@TMRHTCT03 omg rong one lol my bad ahaha i ws thnkn of sumone else ahaha Takanori Nishikawa<3 der u go ahaha

[TMRHTCT03]

@AnimeGirlMai07 lol what? there's no Daisuke in Abingdon Boys School

[dhoogejurgen]

@TMRHTCT03 probably meant to say "daisuki" >.<

[nightmarehunteryoh]

@AnimeGirlMai07 did you want to say 'daisuki' or did you think daisuke asakura was there? he's only the songwriter & keyborder of t.m.revolution, nishikawa~san's solo-project^^

[AnimeGirlMai07]

@nightmarehunteryoh i acctually ws thnkn bout daisuke asakura while at it so i thot it ws hez name so i confuse hm>.^ bt den i rmbr hez name ws Takanori Nishikawa ^-^ swy aha.

[LLawliettchick297]

I'm in love ♥o♥

[Justin13L]

I can barely tell it's live o.o

[MultiPoppyCock]

Some pretty chunky licks, yeah. \m/ (>_<) \m/

[necromancexiii]

the drum intro is awesome :3 normally the compare most japanese alt rock bands to linkin park. i say the japanese ones are better X3

[TMRHTCT03]

@necromancexiii don't be offended by this but don't compare them to linkin park. Linkin park sucks (no offence to any linkin park fans that's just my opinion

[necromancexiii]

@TMRHTCT03 naah dude i am not i prefer japanese pop and rock even hip-hop over the cras they call chart topping popular music in the west. as for linkin park they WERE so so.

[cjdw1995]

@TMRHTCT03 i only like the first two albums, and the third and fourth albums sucked

[ReyaLi1987]

@necromancexiii

i luv the base guitar though :D

[ReyaLi1987]

Respond to this video... 

ooo maybe i mean electric guitar.. hehe

[8MoneyIzmyMission8]

This is ridiculous the sound of the song live is exactly like the studio version. How in the hell was something like that possible? That's just amazing.

*love Darker Than Black

[theawesomeone551]

@8MoneyIzmyMission8 well, as you know, the japanese are PURE. they dont need nor add special effects to make their voices sound better :) gotta luv them japanese :)

[BBQwatchman]

@8MoneyIzmyMission8 LOL so facking true! When i heard this i thought the exact same damn thing :D

[xXValaressoXx]

HOWLING!!

[yehowceph]

The music video was great but this live performance was way better!!!!!!!

[kasou01]

[MrJohnnyDistortion]

@kasou01 You've never seen Rush?

[ryotakamati528]

岸さんのコーラス神やで〜

[RavEorDiE8160]

[kandayo123]

I thought I was listening to the studio version of this song..

[Xuvial]

This is fucking amazing, I can't believe they sound so good live....this has to be one of the best live-performing bands I've heard in a while....

[TheLoverofhearts]

[PHTufts]

[betsy3107]

[AtaraxiaMedia]

what anime is this one from? :P I found Abingdon Boys through STRENGTH and Soul Eater!

[TMRHTCT03]

@AtaraxiaMedia Howling was the opening theme for the first season of Darker Than Black

[AtaraxiaMedia]

@TMRHTCT03 ah cool, thanks!

[Lo323984]

@TMRHTCT03 Just episode 1-14 in the first season.

[TMRHTCT03]

@Lo323984 You're confusing series with seasons, when the opening changes it's the start of a new season

[Lo323984]

@TMRHTCT03 It is? I didn't know that. Because I've seen other series where the opening changes, but the season does not.

[TMRHTCT03]

@Lo323984 Well an average season lasts for around 25 episodes, in long running animes that's when the openings change, although some animes change the openings mid season, like FMA B or DTB while other animes only change the ending every 12 episodes

[Lo323984]

@TMRHTCT03 That's what I thought. There are 25 season in DTB, which I considered as season 1. The opnening changes at episode 15.

[Foxx249]

@AtaraxiaMedia Also Soul Eater

[josephrockz4]

This looks like so much fun to go to...

[CrazyLeg1987]

Just love that song! THX buddy!

[arountr1]

I love it! I do not speak or understand any Japanese, but I absolutely love this band. It is amazing they sound fantastic live. Wld be a fun to see them live. Of coarse I live in the U.S. so not sure I will get a chance. I have tried to find a way to buy their music, but have failed to no avail. I've tried there website. No way for me to download. If any one can help I would appreciate it. Great vid TMRHTCT03!

[TMRHTCT03]

@arountr1 You can buy their cd's at cdjapan

[rae0vin]

I never desired seeing a band live, mostly because most bands (actually its the band's singer) sounds awful. But these guys sound exactly the same. I wouldn't mind seeing them live.

[UntiedHeartbeat]

@rae0vin

yeah i thought the same i didn't even knew that i sung LIVE o.O

[CuteAkito]

Only great songs come out Japan :/ there's no japanese JBs or anything D: they're made of awesome sauce!!!

896748rhjbasgjjgankl actually at some parts of the song there is difference :] so it's not synced (:

[896748rhjbasgjjgankl]

They are so tight live i thought they were faking it for a while there. If it weren't for an occasional different inflection in the vocals or a timbre change in the guitar i would have been really disappointed cause i would have thought it was all synced.

But as a result im really friggin impressed. Thanks for the upload.

[neckie09]

cool! they are amazing even in live.

[kjih03]

OMG singer's almost 40 years old... I just found that out...

[AzureKiru]

There is nothing live about that.

[nonnatural]

@AzureKiru .....

get yourself an HD monitor dawg. there's crowds. stage lights, plus no lip-synching anywhere. sigh.

[horn1110]

This is so GREAT!!!!

[murmelswe]

Wtf? I didn't know T.M Revolution was the singer for ABS... Well, I guess you learn something new every day.

[KamiNoOokami]

This is totally live and it is totally AMAZING!

Thx for upload

[cyberxspeed]

This live sounds better than the actual song itself.

[soulbrave78]

wahh!!!kawaii!!!!taka-sama!!!

[VeidoX]

Gave me chills.

[kiisukomm]

Doesn't it sound a little too perfect?

[MackerelAssasin]

@kiisukomm compare it with his mv... ull hear differences for sure.

[kiisukomm]

@MackerelAssasin If it really is live... well then I must admit they're insanely good XD

[Amsah]

@kiisukomm

There's no such thing..=]

[redyrnogardash]

[KenSansei]

FUCK that solo is awesome

[Yelahna95]

Thank you sooo much for uploading! They are amazing ^_^

[MrsNellio]
