Omg they are absoluetely AMAZING live!!!!!!! Saw them at Club Nokia and omg!!!! Paul held onto my hand for the greatets 30 secs of my life! Best Bday and CONCERT OF MY LIFE!!!<3 MUTEMATH FOREVER
Great singer, Guitar shredder, Funky bass, Insane Dums. Checkout Spotlight . That song has so many twist and turns I like it more every time I listen.
Happened to see them on the Paladia channel the other night.And i was like ,wow!,these guys are super good!Who are they?Just so happens they are gonna be playing in NYC on my birthday in March,i'm there for sure!
@xalanx309 i think he uses some kind of vintage ludwig kit but his snare is definitely ancient. its seriously the fattest tallest snare ive ever seen a modern drummer use, its bigger than some rack toms. ive looked it up before but im sure google can answer this more clearly for you
@beabercj hahahah you clearly havent seen them live. he has WAY more energy at an actual concert than he did in this minor tv performance. the whole band is insane live. believe it or not the drummer was actually kicked out for having too much energy way early in mutemath history. your comment made me lul. u obviously havent seen them live with the way youre talking
@BlueShadow463 he changes his cymbals a lot. Im using a 22 inch zildjian K crash ride that he used to have. but sometimes he uses paiste. whatever mood he is in i guess...
@MrPaulus8040 hahahaha you fucker man i was looking at 25sec for about 2 min trying to see what it was you were talking about then i saw this comment but yeah that was pretty wild haha
i just HATE it that they treat their instruments like that... all for a half-assed "experimental" performance.. other than that, the song's really good..
@ArexRosauce - Mutemath, Radiohead, Muse, Minus The Bear, and Nine Inch Nails are the best live shows I've ever seen... Mutemath was probably the best. PROPS!
It's amazing how Paul still manages to stay in key doing handstands and slamming on the keyboard. And everybody in Mutemath is a multi-instrumentalist. They're all drummers, everybody's good at programming and sampling, and everyone (except Darren, I think...) can play guitar, Meany sings so amazingly and creamy-smooth, and they've got one of the best bass players out there today (Roy--go listen to the Armistice live video and see what I'm talking about)! I love Mutemath!
@whiterichboy What's with all the comparisons? Dude, just enjoy what you came here to watch. Don't you know you rob yourself of enjoyment with relative opinions being tossed around all the time?
@thecomfortisnow You HAVE to see them live. I've seen them twice already, and out of the almost 50 concerts I've been to in my life, they put on a better show than anyone except maybe Green Day and some other older bands who have been at it for decades.
Amazing play by Darren (as always, one of the best drummers/percussionist out there), Paul hasn't sung as usual, Roy rocked it out but that's no news, he's awesome.
@jamesisapain To be fair (Sorta. Kinda. Maybe-ish lol.), apparently the whole band buys secondhand/used instruments when they tour. I think it's pretty beastly that they can produce such awesome live music from what the vast majority of industry recording artists wouldn't even touch to autograph, much less play a gig with.
@jamesisapain Dude, if there's one thing that these guys aren't, it's pretentious. I met them briefly before a show, and they were extremely kind and humble.
@jamesisapain Wait, when does anyone smash anything? Are you talking about the drums? There's not much pretentious about buying piece of crap used drums and fixing them up to sound good but take a beating.
Dude they throw their instruments around and like at 2:36 he jumps on the keyboard. I guarantee that keyboard is not a cheap crappy one. It's show pony bullshit
@jamesisapain if you say so. the guitarist and bassist are both taking plenty good care of their stuff. The drums are assuredly old pawn shop drums, because darren has talked about buying them in interviews. The keyboard is a fender rhodes, not cheap on its own, but it's in a big fat custom road case that they build and repair themselves, and is built like a tank. nothing they are doing to it is harming anything or being wasteful.
I'm entitled to my opinion. I never said I didn't like it. I was purely saying I hated one aspect of their performance.
And guess what? You're the fucking idiot who is hating on someone just because they have a different view to you. You're getting a little bit defensive over a fucking video. Seriously dude, time to turn off that computer of yours and go outside.
omg! my new favorite band i have 2 albums, bought them cause when i heard spotlight loved paul 's voice. cant stop listening, on my ipod but i need lyrics.
