Extreme - Cynical (Live)

[Painkiller1157]

This song is so much better live

[Do21or12Die]

one of the many asounding qualities about extreme (speaking about stuff later than Extreme III) is that they never recorded anything that they wouldnt be able to perfectly reproduce live. my god, Nuno can chew up van halen and spit him out. His melody, his style, his poly-rythms. hes so fucking good.

[Chochili7]

@Tusk548 Mike Mangini joined the band for this album for the drums. Dude you can't misplace Nuno's tone

[bottazzo77]

pure legendary band..

[Tusk548]

I stand corrected

[Tusk548]

I believe this is Tribe of Judah, No Nuno and Different Drummer. Pat Badger was in that band and he is on the Bass

[zzerovisibility]

@Tusk548 No the band that you are watching is Extreme Nuno dyed his hair blonde at one point...besides listen to the riffing. It has Nuno written all over It.

[zzerovisibility]

@Tusk548 This was at the Beacon Theater. I believe in Baltimore.

[Tusk548]

Sound A Cameraman F for Fail

[lp6599]

the guitar player is really good. he knows whats up

[bottazzo77]

@lp6599 the guitar player????? HE'S NUNO FUCKING BETTENCOURT, you better look up who we re talking about.. probably the most talented rock guitar player alive

[myautomobilefunk]

@bottazzo77 c'mon stop with the bullshitting, he was a great guitar player but not the most talented, you exaggerate .

[5catani5]

Coolest, baddest most amazing intro into this song!! Love, love love it!

[dbvideoinc]

looks like this was a private party or something. You can see the backstage.

[danteyoutu]

what amp is nuno using? I see the marshall cabinet but not sure about the amp or the pedal he is using

[Ratabulous]

DAMN, this sounds just like the record. Awesome.

[RobertBorden121]

The CD starts with them demonstrating that they are playing "live" in the studio. That is what makes this raw record so brilliant.

[pooritech]

i always feel smthing is lacking in gary's voice when they're live! Sublime performences in studio but live...

[alidumanpak]

Sick guitar riff

[foobuddies]

I remember this show..Baltimore....I was right up front...good times! :)

[mikajax]

Amazing!

[crazy4nuno]

Yeah, I don't understand why so many Extreme fans hate this CD. I love it. It's so raw and so in your face.

[luvisacigarette8]

it was raw and amazing. Pornagraffiti wasn't raw, but still amazing. i thought this was there strongest album especially because of mike mangini.

[tnrc75]

This band is so, so, so underrated.

[VHistheshiz]

Extreme is my favorite band of all time. I got to meet them after a show on the last tour. It was the greatest moment of my life.

[drypotatoes87]

this song rips my anus slightly wider every time i hear it

[krockatnik]

@drypotatoes87

well put :D

[ivi13]

loved these tunes with mangini nuno rules!

[pmuiana]

What? this is extreme baby no cover or wannabe . it's a litlle bit grungie but the funk is there

[nave890]

are they tryin to be pearl jam or alice in chains with this song or something, if so, they fail

[4fizzygnut]

Pearl Jam, Alice and Extreme have very seperate distinct flavors(I am a fan of all3). Even Eddie Veddar and Layne Staley had musicians and genres that influenced them-what's so wrong with being open minded? Any way, being a huge Extreme fan, the whole punchline album was remniscent of 3 sides. They definetly had a new sound that was changing with the era. Sorry to hear you did not like it. NUNO RULES!

[nave890]

i've actually grown to like this song now, Yea Nuno rocks

[kjanosiban]

masterpiece from extreme....(the whole album!!!)

[fanculoate]

wtf? nuno's blond hair? XD

[blitzkrieg414]

All I can say is Wow! This is my favorite track from their album Waiting for the Punchline, Thanks for the post & Nuno is a guitar monster!

[reverend07]

NUNO is legendary!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!

[mlmr11]

There is something incredibly mediocre about this band

I understand that nuno is fast . I understand that mangini is a monster .

I understand all of that

Yet their music seems to be a surreptitious mutilation/blending of mediocre 80's rock pumped up with distorted power chords and unimaginative vocal melodies.

Nono changed his sound to accommodate the times?

Yeah he bought a classic rig and played on the neck pickup ...same nuno out of a Fender Tweed ....

[heavydecky]

well thank god they are back eh? Latest album is great. This track is spectacular!

[vgzgvgnr]

Nuno is amazing, but i like his extreme stuff much more than the solo stuff. It's a shame that he broke up the band in 1996. Well, what can you do?

[Eclectic1970]

Phenomenal Performance! BTW does anyone else notice how every member except for the drummers take turns being the blonde? HAHA

[BajsIBrallanBengt]

Mangini's ambidextrous!

[Maglorz]

When was this?

[joshheisel]

Pat Badger is such a beast on bass.

[Toolshed76]

I agree, very underrated.

[Andras75]

woh, yesss! masterpiece!! this lineup rocked a lot as well!

[watarandomdude]

Can't wait for their new album :P

[BlindRevolutionMan]

imagine waiting for the punchline with chris cornell in vocals..

[VictorBettencourt]

Awful

[AKseventyfour]

Actually, that could sound pretty cool imo. Badmotorfinger meets Punchline. Particularly on this song, it could rock. Maybe Nuno and Chris should collaborate in teh future.

[adonis2121]

I cant think he'd be much better. I wasnt that impressed with his post soundgarden stuff. He seems to have lost his voice.

[VictorBettencourt]

FUCKING AMAZING

[Toolshed76]

Nuno is a rare talent. His leads are as good as his solos and solos are amazing!

[simonsayz42069]

mike mangini yup... much better than paul geary... even tho mr geary is or was godsmacks manager or producer im not sure

[SeanHart213]

mike mangini?!

[darthrus]

grate riff

[d4nnyladd]

awesome song

[kenjikitahara]

Love it!!
