At the Drive-In: 198d

[vosose]

ATDI is back!

[peetahp3]

This dance is out of rhythm, we trip on excess steps. 

[budo1]

Omar was clearly stoned here.

[lowendtheorystudios]

I really hope they play this song. I might cry if they do.

[mrpelon1000]

dammmmm got chills

[madamimadamk1]

REUNION AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

[Bailouts]

So excited for this reunion!

[Redeemedsinner17]

can't... stop.. listening.. to.. .it

[ClorinasWish]

This song literally makes me rry, this performance makes me bawl.

[thecomfortisnow]

NEver got to experience this awesome ness. :(

[Rmossburg]

ha it's sweet that omar is playing a squire. lol so sick.

[alexsweeley]

@Rmossburg nah, it was before squires were made in china with shit parts and build quality. Pretty much the equivalent to the fenders made in Mexico, only better.

[nembutals]

I love how much soul there is in this performance.

[marsvolta001]

I can't even express how amazing this live version is... The greatest tragedy of my life is that this band broke up when I was in the 5th grade...

[AhhTheyreInCahoots]

@marsvolta001 Baby they're back!

[lumix1640]

Something alike Morrison

[DeezyDoesIt420]

And this is me leaving another comment 15 hours later. EPIC VID

[DeezyDoesIt420]

Amazing

[greatgregmurf]

this version is dope

[asadastronaut]

16 people have no souls

[canesrule96]

This dance is out of rhythm, we trip on excess steps, postponed at the first showing.

God they're such eccentric song writers and cedric is such a profound lyricist!

[BMXorHOMICIDE]

BORN IN HEARRTS!! ETCHED IN COLD!!.. wtf?.. can you say genius?

[5stringfretless]

Seems like one of their only solid performances, probably because they weren't flipping around all over the stage.

[lolYOULOSTTHEGAMElol]

@5stringfretless Well yeah, that was kinda the point. They took so much flak from people who thought they couldn't play that they did a short, reserved gig on Channel V.

[mtp234]

I wish the ATDI reunion wasn't postPWNED so hard D:

[linkoovi]

Cant get enough of this! Where is the repeat button?

[TravuhsWree]

Omar's playing a Squire in this video bahahaha so bad ass

[dubingster]

GREAT :)

[Thominiho10]

tremors that hold us

tremors that warn us

nothing bleeds like

[Dogtopian]

15 people postponed at the first showing

[KingOfSchmucks]

What the heck is this garbage? Another bunch of talentless art student types who make a cacophony and call it music. AND PEOPLE FUCKING BUY THIS SHIT!!!!!

[filburt47]

@KingOfSchmucks this garbage is one of the best bands ever, the best garbage EVER

[ChaostheClown]

@KingOfSchmucks Less art students, more drop out opium junkies.

People buy way worse shit, so I'm not so sure why you're so concerned, or how you even ended up here......

There's many layers of what is actually considered 'music' here, if you cared to open up your mind along with your ears a bit to hear the composition. But ehh, I'm not gonna try n sway your opinion. Different people like different shit, so it's all good, mannn.

[johanna717]

@KingOfSchmucks thnxkbaitroll

[tanvo93]

@KingOfSchmucks i dont get where u get ur logic from..these dudes have great way of breaking rules and bieng creative while making it come all together and have it working in a straight path..i wonder if u think king crimson is shit too

[MrMagnolia8]

@KingOfSchmucks

Trolling hard or hardly trolling?

[autorelocater]

the fact that they called these geniuses the "next Nirvana" just puzzles me. Nirvana, at the most, was decent but compared to At the Drive-In they were just garbage.

[GirlieWithACamera]

Nostalgia... 

[haigaiz19]

This song is so great.

[boygalak]

@haigaiz19 yo momma sing better at night

[haigaiz19]

@boygalak Zing!

[0010sandy]

lookin at omar back then and now it feels like a totally different person

[Thominiho10]

@0010sandy More older: more mature.

[bbeaup]

this band broke up and it's always really bothered me, but i've learned not to be such a pussy and move on with my life lol

[Delawah]

So beautiful!

[bravo11x]

pause at 2:11..what the fucks omar doing with a squier?

[cptskod]

@bravo11x The Super-Sonic was like the only guitar Omar used in ATDI. They were built in Japan in the mid-90's and are great guitars IMHO.

[lefthandedguitarguy]

watch my videos. my band being human. is making dope ass music trying to bring back the old school sound. leaving all the new crap behind.

[TheWadalarap]

esta rola esta poca madre

[samlunchbox17]

15 people missed the like button

[Pretsal]

Amazing.

[manistin]

Holy fuck, easily one of their greatest live performances. Just seeing the raw energy and love for the music is enough. The passion in Cedric's eyes as he sings this is breathtaking.

[Badman2123]

@manistin

I think he's just tripping haha.

[thecomfortisnow]

wow.i had never heard a good version of this song.until now.ATDI POR VIDA.

[tanvo93]

i love the quiete just beofre the maelstrom part..it really hits u and makes the part so amazing and full of feeling..its the beauty and art of music its one of the greatest things and feelings in the world

[tanvo93]

i just thought of something like midway throu this vid..doesnt it sound like parkway drive kinda got inspired by at the drive-in for their name..p.s. i fucken hate parkway drive and all the trendy hardcore bs generic shit thats been comin out lately

[nembutals]

This was their last performance? Wow! I didnt know that.

I love the little fingerstyle guitar flourishes at the beginning, this is a great version but you can hear them better on the album track.

[Georgelogan]

what a sad song and sad video, this was at the drive ins last performance, and im so glad it got recorded

[Ehiguy102]

just plain wonderful!

[freymaroto]

AMazing band... They sold out their soul when they made TMV..this was the shit!

[kahleox]

omar and jim were perfect!! one was really clean and flowy. the other was rough but very experimental.

[natiigallagher]

i love tatto of cedrix ;)

[AngelZGR]

15 fuckers miss the LIKE button???

They must've been in drugs or some

[noscirenamra]

"Walk! Away!" ...Just stings were the part is soo... sensitive

[JamarkusDeburkishaw]

Jim is so underrated. It's his interplay with Omar, his backup vocals and his keyboards that make ATDi that much better.

[shibby892]

@JamarkusDeburkishaw And such an underrated guitarist! His line on Pickpocket blows my mind every time I listen to it.

[afab232]

what kind of guitar is omar playing? it says squier(?) something on the close up at 2:13

[owenface1]

@afab232  its a Squier super sonic, by fender

[jamereut]

@afab232 It's an upside down squier supersonic. From the vista series, which were very well made guitars. Doesn't matter what it says on the headstock.

[den220]

so thats the dude who screams "walk awaaaaaaayyyyyyy"

[wilorowsky]

@den220 vocalist of "Sparta"

[den220]

@wilorowsky- Right on

[bridgadellic]

when your singing cedric.. it always feels like its snowing **CHILLS**

[andee060]

this song will forever have a special place in my heart as will ATDI

[canthinkverywell]

im actually starting to like at the drive-in more than the mars volta. i think there might be something wrong with me...

[freshskweezer]

This might be a decent song if they could turn off the guitar players amps. His sloppy ass playing distracts me from the song and the rest of the band. I almost thought this was shred video.

[RHCPh4x]

@freshskweezer

lol

[adamsrober]

insane... I want to see a new band with this much live energy. If anyone has any ideas let me know.

[josephborderline]

@adamsrober you can't compare them but billy talent has a lot of live energy

[Chingeesoraus]

this song is still amazing.

[joshingledew]

3:26 the engergy is fucking intense, gives me the chills

i love ATDI they were amazing but if they came back now they would never

have the same feel as they used to, if they released a new album after the last one it would be shit cause none of them got along and it would be forced

[may301985]

ATDI R BEST FUCK MARS VOLTA FUCK SPARTA

[willystylee]

lol... idiot

[joydivisionthecure]

you can hear them breaking up when they sing back and fourth from (walk away )"born in hearts"....they trade off like its over

[willystylee]

huh, i couldn't really hear that...

[varethika]

they started it

[igotnospit]

Fuck, that was so beautiful, so so fucking beautiful...and I'll never see them live :'(

[joydivisionthecure]

mad me cry so beautiful

[DannyEbdale]

we trip on excess steps

[pmd1220]

I need to find the hot tub machine to go back in time to see these guys live really fuckin bad

[oridniv]

Oh the Memories...so bitter sweet it hurts

[TheTrancereligious5]

I feel you bro

[oridniv]

@TheTrancereligious5 ha...I'm a girl but thanks :)

[TheTrancereligious5]

@oridniv oh I feel you anyway. Madamme ;)

[pinkpop91764]

@oridniv what! ur a gurl atdi fan! woooo! ididnt even kno that gurl atdi fans even exist!

[ieroscarpet]

@pinkpop91764 skjngja they do!! girls can have good taste music too

[rizosfella]

This is music, coño... I'd give anything to go back in time to see these guys live!!!

[may301985]

ATDI IS THE BEST FUCK MARS VOLTA FUCK SPARTA ATDI Is the MEAT&PATATUHS

[TGlel]

neg

[electricshoe12]

This is truly original.

[dudeinthesuperunkown]

Simply Amazing, Favorite song from these guys :)

[wurstgulaschpfanne]

unbelievable sound... and for them personaly the album they most liked!

[cArLoSgArCiA31594]

gives me the chills

[beatnugs]

finally someone who knows your shit, the only thing you left out was that it was form the Vista series but good enough

[speedstrx7]

I'm in the middle of ordering a gravestone for my mom. Its a very deep thing to go through. Born in hearts and etched in cold.

[spartanlemur]

Aww man this gives me the chills

[dragonpie88]

Pretty sure most at the drive in songs are in standard tuning, check out their tabs and you'll see that.

[Starky998]

nice!!1 i like them!

[wassereischmeckt]

love this song...miss at the drive-in...but thats the past man (in my opinion the band divided into 2 individual parts which are actually really amazing...the mars volta are sometimes kinda chaotic but really epic and they got the balls to try things out...and on the other hand there is sparta with its dreamy and harmonic atmosphere...so no point in making one of them down...just 2 different bands which have one awesome root) ....damn typing too much again ~.~

xD

[TheTrancereligious5]

@wassereischmeckt ja übelst, außerdem sind tmv live der wahnsinn :o - aber atdi sind einfach wuaaaah!

[twoplustwoisnotfour]

ionly badn ever that got away with playing with an out of tune guitar

[slippage10]

great quality, amazing band

[FxC123]

lol omar is using a squir

[nodejealniniogritar]

temazzzzzo!

[may301985]

AT THE DRIVE IN this is where its at the PRIME PURITY OF SPARTA AND MARS VOLTA ITS HERE WITH AT THE DRIVE IN THEY WERE THE BEST ALL TOGETHER SPARTA MARS VOLTA SUCK BALLS

[Genobawt]

Where I agree that they were the best together... I wouldn't discredit their separate projects.

[SconJaquar]

douche

[XguitarrockerX]

Have you ever visited a mars volta concert? If so, how can you say that TMV sucks balls...

[drea6666]

Volta is an evolution of this band...sparta is a digression

[ColinGWood]

disagree. Jim can write a mean song, he just doesnt have the sporadic skill and ability, or vision, or whatever it is that guitarists have that Omar has

[ILUVMETALNSTUFF]

well-put. I agree completely.

The creative half of At the Drive-in formed TMV.

[ebelein]

@ILUVMETALNSTUFF

i dont think that tmv voltas songs are THAT creative

[ILUVMETALNSTUFF]

Oh, i agree. Wholeheartedly. They've become pretty pretentious since the At the Drive-in days and TMV isn't nearly as good as ATDI. Then again, look at Sparta. Comparitively speaking, TMV is a lot more creative.

[ebelein]

@ILUVMETALNSTUFF

hmm yeah true

[TGlel]

alternate time sigs, key changes, progressive, use of multiple effects. in fact there isn't a band to date that do it quite like volta....but you are right.....not that creative...

[Lattekohletor]

It's just amazing what fantastic and different sound they are able to produce with their guitars, sinthys and keyboards. I'd give everything for a reunite and to see them live performing .

[80XY]

Well i read somewhere Cedric saying that everyone in the band is on talking terms again and the only thing really stopping them is some sort of financial issue.. but i duno when to take him or omar seriously lol so i dont know if its true, but we can hope!

[lpapii92]

just amazing all the raw emotion in this performance ..go ATDI

[mark1800]

intense keyboard part.

[Alienoverload]

i like tool and atdi

[MrMellow45]

Who gives a fuck about tool... Why would you look up At the drive in if you wanted to hear tool you piece of shit. I love tool by the way. But this band kicks ass too, Learn to play an instrument younob gobbler

[manataku8]

you guys are Fools to try too compare these two bands, there in totally diffrent genres, Then though they both may have these ambiant Sounds, and lyrics that dont seem to make sense inless you want them to.

[theaethertree]

If you think Tool plays basic rhythms you obviously haven't listened to them...and if you have you have no idea what you're talking. that being said, this song kicks ass : D

[385052]

omar sounds so awsome in this performance

[domination90237]

yeah, especially considering his guitar was out of tune. it totally adds to the dissonence.

[lifeisshortpartynakd]

man,wish they were still together... ost talented american band since the doors,with the exception of beck.

[spartanlemur]

Gorgeous and epic

[JonasBridgous]

Isn't this song about an event in which some vandals defaced Paul Hijonos' late mother's tomb stone?

[sideshowatyourplace]

its about the drummers mom who was mass burried in lebanon i believe

[slashakat]

no its WALK AWAY! BORN IN HEARTS ETCHED IN COLD AT THE FIRST SHOWING get it right goddddddddd

[B3D5X]

Lmao. It doesn't even sound like what that guy wrote :P

[storture]

fucking epic live performance. definitely my favorite song.

[2glassbottle2]

sounds so awesome live too

i love Cedric!

[1fpm]

the best shite anyone can ever touch.

[ganstamannirvana93]

Wow Jim's voice is so good here.

[jessykkk666]

ohhhhhh i remember when i was 15 and i played this with my bad....

bad remains

[vladan891]

this is god.

[Ibanezalk3]

hellyes..this is godlike

[patrickmustdie]

I wish I had a time machine so I could go back and watch them perform live.

[passinghorses]

same here. please let's force world governments to invest more money in time travel research.

i really really wish i could have seen them live..

[while they're at it make them search teletransport too, just for cool's sake]

[Calviano360]

damn 3:27 simply amazing.

[JOKERH4H4]

Can anyone tell me if I can get the full Channel V performance? I think, and do tell me if I'm incorrect, that there were many different songs played during the same performance that is this one. If that is correct, is there a way to download either audio or video of the full performance? :) Thank you.

[azzurri418]

man, vaya-era at the drive-in was fucking tops.

[ibette]

Ugh, I get sexually frustrated every time I see cedric singing with so much heart and soul :(. COME MAKE LOVE TO ME BABY BIX!

[twoplustwoisnotfour]

this song can be on repeat

how good is the drummer...

this is up there with tool

[samuelhake301]

dude 3x better

[clipcalhoon]

kinda..but TOOL is on another plane of existence

[clipcalhoon]

i hope you fucking joking...

[domination90237]

apparently, you know little of the technicalities and intricacies of music, but just go on the feel you get from certain pieces. there's nothing wrong with that, but you won't get much further than where you are if if that's all you go on.

[sebastianonfire]

why is tool in caps?

[iamsicsic6]

id love to get whatever channel this was on. to sit around and smoke bowls to live music...that would be great

[benstill1]

When this song begins the sound you hear is me scratching my pubes when i awake in the morning. ATDI is my favorite so scratch your crabs and be merry!

[Adam080]

VAYA!!!

[yotemba]

so really miss them... this song just get straight to the feeling dude. AT THE DRIVE-IN!!!

and it feels like it's snowing....

[defiant4life]

mars volta and sparta will never come close to what they should have been had they stayed together

[Byrnie1989]

sparta perhaps. The music scene would have been a very dark and sterile place if volta hadnt formed.

[irotinmyskin]

i agree....both bands r great...but at the drive in was superb
