The Human Abstract Live In Miami

[IlikeGOODguitarists]

lol when I saw him he was legitly perfect at singing... They gave me a 5$ discount so I could by a shirt since I didn't have enough money. Nice guys, especially the guitarist with the dreadlocks. He is a friendly dude.

[frosty125845]

personally, i never really cared for his vocals.

[MysteryShadow17]

the person below be must of meant to say their vocals are fucking amazing!

[fuckgardengnomes]

vocalist sucks big donkey dick

[lollerskates101LOL]

The Vocalist is the worst singer ive ever heard. Im willing to guess 90% of people are better then him he sounds like a piece of shit. I would rather watch a piece of shit then him perform

[Ibanezkid84]

I'll agree he does really suck here but everytime I have seen them he nails it. I have seen them 3 times, so I would call this one of his off nights. It sucks being a singer because if ur off ur off! A guitar player can always tune up but if ur vocal chords are damaged or you're sick u are fucked. So cut the guy some slack and watch some other live videos and you'll see how great Nathan really is!!!!!!!!

[darkstar5555]

vocalist is awsome, u suck

[rawr121]

i like their vocalist. idk

[MrDerp117]

This band would be fucking amazing if they got a new singer and they got out of that formulaic CHUG CHUG SWEEP CHUG song writing style. It gets kind of stale after a while.

[jjoel90]

how do they see what they're playing lol?

[sliceyourface]

the camera makes the place look darker

[TheHowardShow]

Whoa!! Not what I expected this to be (judging by the title I imagined this as more of a science-museum show in florida), but this turned out to be a really good expose on motorcyle-rockers. Have you turned this in to the authorities? Were there any arrests!? Later.

Your pal and subscriber, Howard Tuttleman

[sliceyourface]

lol

[teknoguitar]

Anyone retarted enough to defend this bullshit?...total shit. Since when did this form of musical masturbation find it's audience of idiots?

[sociocide]

man this guys CANNOT sing live

[LufthansaHeist]

Not just his singing, it's the video itself. Everything sounds really flat, it doesn't have that live 'vibe'

[toonday14]

the singin on the cd is better sounding, but he prolly gave it all he got, respect.

[G4DUB]

well you have to consider that on the cd they were able to add effects and overlays to the vocals haha

[fezthecat1]

SUCH RAW ENERGY! I love these guys. They give their all during their shows. Rock on Human Abstract, rock on.

[SMK626]

excuse my typos, just assholes like that piss me off

i hate having to follow a 'layout' in order to fit in with the music i love. it's originality, fuckers.

[slvrstnthb]

dont you idiots who say his singing sucks realize that live moving around and the energy and touring to different states and singing everyday might make your voice tired? And not only that when you are recording of course it sounds better because your concentrated not moving alot and recording everything separately, along with coming into recording with the clearest and rested voice as you can with good equipment. so of course it is going to sound better on record dumbasses.

[SMK626]

nicely said

yet i must agree his voice does need a little verb

[Kezia04]

it's weird because at most of their shows you can barely hear the vocals but in this video that's pretty much all you can hear

[kliffster]

i agree the vox sound dry they need some verb

[hellashes]

yes. this video makes him sound bad.

[Arav7eeX]

DeathByGravityBlast, you need to be shot. Seriously. I'm suprised you didnt say that you were also astounded by the fact that they didnt slit your dogs throat and sacrifice it to satan since it's the "metal" thing to do. I wish I had known about it. Damn, metal in miami. I wish that happened alot more often than. But isntead we have all these crappy hardcore bands that actually think they sound good. I've only ever heard a few local ones that are pretty good.

[voodooxchild]

dam the vocals need a little reverb no?

[thrasher123]

another band in this new genre of Protest The Hero, etc... its pretty good. i remember back in the 90's this style of technical metal was not popular. i really loved bands like Red Tide, Cynic, Atheist, Death and the likes that did different things. But the vocals on this bootleg aren't the best.

[thevirulentaversion]

I'm more for the music than the performance. Their Music Kicks Ass! They dont have to rock out or drink to be metal. Most people do coz they want to be cool or fit in. I guess THA cant be bothered.

[DeathByGravityBlast]

they stayed at my guitar players house last week..they are least metal dudes ive ever met..no joking around, no drinking..instead came home and played more guitar..nothing original either..just more sweeping in major scales..stuff they had just done in their set like 2 hours prior. squares.

[guitrwhor7]

since when do you have to fuck around and drink to be "metal"?

[wrthlssartz205]

drinking makes you metal?...lmao.

[jillybooty]

the rythm guitarist here doesn't drink

[SMK626]

this is what i hate, the steriotypical u gotta do this to be metal. Im against rap because of it's repeatitive 'fuck, drink, be hard' lyrics in most the songs. i came to metal because it's a original and has limitless subgenre's. anything from dimmu, to abstract, to chimaira, to bodom, to pantera get me off. yet i hate that steriotypical shit about it. that u gotta drink, they ur "satanic". why can't i just fucking be me? assholes like u ruin this genre and make it into another steriotype.

[fezthecat1]

in fact, one of the guitarists is in fact CHRISTIAN.

[sliceyourface]

that would be the guy who writes their music. don't be afraid to like them if you like them !! they aren't a christian band.

[fezthecat1]

dude i know. I love the human abstract. I was just commenting on what smk626 said. People associate metal with drugs, alcohol, and satan. But that is complete bullshit. So i was pointing out the irony, that's all. I myself am a christian, but i love to listen to Manson and rob zombie and shit like that.

[Smakuzu]

lawl.

i am a christian,

and you sweared twice in that comment?

lawl.

:D

[fezthecat1]

in the words of dee snider "i don't see what profanity has to do with christianity"

[jillybooty]

they thanked god on the CD

[washburn7x]

i agree but ppl like that ruin every genre

[G4DUB]

wow

[guitarFrEEk45912]

the singer is awesome on their mastered versions but he seems kinda weak live, atleast on this song live. I love his voice off the album.

But the band is insane, Nocturne (this song) is one of my fav. songs by them

[sabrefang0]

Hehe funny I was the guy in back photographing during that song you they had some of the photos on theyre myspace but i reorganized folders so theyre gone but the blog post is still there. Hehe that was still a great show

[AllenEason]

all the people who said nathan ells the singer sucks can go suck one, cause i play in another band with nathan and he is awesome, not to mention that singing to that kind of music is extremely hard and the fact thet they do it every night .

[darkinertia2]

the singer owns and so does THA

[sliceyourface]

just show me one 'singer' in a metal/hardcore band, excluding mike patton, who has any talent at all and i'll show you an idiot.

[sliceyourface]

lead guitarist is a real fuckn pro.. wow. singer isn't at all bad, but he likely rathers singing over screaming and his band isn't easy to match.

[Buried3030]

I don't care about the singing.....but i do like to hear sicc screaming vocals for metal.....it makes it......and most of the bands i've seen live that i like have a cooler scream than this guy.

don't get me wrong it sounds good on the recording, doesnt seem like he can cut it live

[bubbabond22]

what about rody from protest the hero?

[sliceyourface]

this is down to personal opinions. i'm not a fan of protest the hero, i actually think they're incredibly stupid. all this music sucks imo and it's total pussy "metal."

[june32nd]

so technical guitar riffs and well thought out lyrics that actually give a meaning. is "pussy metal"... kid i'd hate to see what your listening to

[sliceyourface]

"...well thought out lyrics that actually give a meaning..."

right

;[

[jjoel90]

your a fucking retard!! this isnt pussy music u fagget there music is so awesome and this band has something most dont dont and thats actual musical skill!

[sliceyourface]

you are a child

[Buried3030]

yeah the singer is a poop stain.....but the music sounds sicccc

[Rerrbachh]

their music is great, but the siger live his awful...

[Flamewolf2009]

Well I assume he was tired. I can't post the first recording I got of them playing Crossing The Rubicon because it's too big. x_X

[shreddemon77]

He's awful in general.

[sliceyourface]

probably can't hear himself too well. let's hear your fuckin band..

[Jerryrocks]

yeah saw then last night and that just what i said.

[himsakills123]

amazing
