Atreyu - Becoming The Bull (7/27/07 Mansfield, MA)

[ViniciusCPedrosa]

M. Shadows is fucking, is the best, it is very complete

[fabio24amarante]

When you are right in the front of them, you don't give a fuck if they're out of tone. If you want all the music perfectly, just listen to the CDs

You go see them because you like them.

Thumbs up if you agree

[wikedwest90]

damn alex is way outa tune, why isnt brandon the singer ;) 

[Vaziel]

well at least the drummer can sing.......

[MethoDSuX]

He got better through the chorus, but range was an issue for some reason.

[eatshit1111]

oli sykes is a horrible screamer? i think your mental dude.

[yamish181]

is it just me or does alex sound competely out of tune!!

[Wrathofa7x]

actually the way he screams isn't killing his vocal chords, and if they were he would still be singin in tune, great band and all, but he he cant sing any of the new songs live, the drummer is doing amazing and he's drumming, i dont mean to rip on atreyu because ive been with them since suicide notes and butterfly kisses but the singer (not the drummer) has not been doin that great, his screamin isnt affecting his voice because i know his method of it, you can talk and sing totally fine after

[CheifChaz1]

wow hes got an amazing scream, like one of th best in the business but hes no howard joness (killswitch engage) who can sing amazing clean and has an incredible scream also.

Still a great band but this album sucked

[daysofthephoenix1223]

yeah, but howard's no jesse.

[Elvenwraith3]

yes he sucks when he sings live..but u people forget that because his screams are so awesome it takes a toll on voice and therefore his singing

[lilhouck26]

i saw them live. i thought they sucked....i perfer to listen to my cd...just personal preferance though...dont hate on me.

[floppyfl0pster]

lol, I love Atreyu but I hate the fact that they suck live...

at least the the lead singer does

[pioneerXpete]

You know a band is terrible if the drummer can singer better than then singer...while playing drums. what a cunt this guy is.

[bltrnnicole]

Well that "cunt" can fucking RAPE a Microphone when he screams.

his screams are EPIC!

listen to "bleeding Mascara" or "We Stand Up"

Asshole

[pioneerXpete]

Who gives a shit if he can scream? any one can. But I didn't say anything bad about that. He's an awful singer and needs to hang it up or take a few...or a couple hundred vocal lessons.

[bltrnnicole]

Wtf....if anyone can scream cover one of atreyu's old songs..it's not as easy as you think farttart

[Wrathofa7x]

nevermind i thought of a different song, bleeding mascara is alex sorry

[bltrnnicole]

ahah ohh.

i was like...really?

i almost went and googled it untill i saw your other comment haahha

[katiewhooo]

aweful live, i will never see them because of all the live videos i've seen. the drummer is better at keeping in tune than the screamer...weird. and even still, he's not great. very disappointing.

[shortmortal]

well. the live version isn't going on meh ipod.

that's kind of disappointing.

sad face.

[juistise]

these guys are terrible live? wtf is up with this,,,these guys are suppose to be like amazing

[ZJBouch11]

I love how Atreyu has grown into their new sound, and I don't think Alex's singing is terrible at all, but he has an incredible scream that they need to utilize more. The way Alex did his vocals in the songs on their death-grip cd was really cool. It was mostly screaming with a few singing parts mixed in, and that gave his verses more variety and made the screams more intense and exciting. That is the Atreyu i would love to see again, but i'll still appreciate them for whatever they do.

[Crawlingfaint15]

i hope half of you don't consider yourselves true fans because you make the rest of us look like shit

[13374444444444444444]

I vomited and shit my self when the lead singer started singing.

Thank you for posting this, i wont waste my money on seeing them live.

[Dylanownsguitarhero]

shit crowd

[dougy1209]

tough crowd..lol

[TheCarrotCraig]

dead crowd lol

[steve113434]

i think dan almost fell lol

[SeasonsToCycle]

The lead singer cant really sing....but he can scream..thats why their older stuff was better!

[Vital433]

Tottaly agreed

[xxxNightstalker1xxx]

y r u watching this if the only thing u like is the old stuf hmm?

[relinquisher69]

i personally like his singing

[GodAnth]

i love the end when the drummer sings. "become the bull" rlly high. sounds great

[GodAnth]

stupidkid, on the album they have computers that morph the voice to it sounds either a higher pitch, or the singer is under less pressure and more re-takes. thats why the voices always sound better on album covers than live. listen to the drummer and singer struggle to sing in this song. its because its really high pitch

[xxxNightstalker1xxx]

the still sound really good live tho

[Greencheese333]

no....they do use computer but its pretty obvious the lead singer cant sing at all....that is without the help of a computer, cuz he cant hit a note....hes a bad singer. the drummer not olny had to drummer but hit alomst every note just fine....stupid kid.

[Dylanownsguitarhero]

umm...?

the drummer is like singer

lead singer screams

[latinblood4evr]

LOL at 1:51

[stupidkid258]

i hate how he says "decisions have to be made" it sounds retarded like hes trying to do too much for the song he needs to keep it normal like on the album

[megacoolstar]

Alex really isnt doing to good in this performance.

I guess this is what happens when you used to screaming instead of singing.

[freddodaguitar]

tbh tho

they may be shockin on video like this...

but they actually have pretty decent stage presence, nd wen ur singin along it duznt matter to much that the vox are off a bit.

at least thats wot i thort wen i saw em

[MissGuitarHeroIII]

damn he sucks live...but pretty badass on my ipod

[lambeaubooger4]

everyone has to remember this is an outdoor venue on an average camera...the accoustics are shitty there

[Mc2loven]

dude i went to taste of chaos 3 days ago they sounded like they did on the studio recordings ecept it was the alexs real voice it was sick this was proba off day

[LavaughnCharles]

I love atreyu and lets just hope it was an off day.

[Fag3xPl0x]

lol, all their live shows suck balls. he sounds like a retard.

[lildrumadude]

yeah he cant sing, PERIOD, but the drummers good, still ove there music

[suicidaldreams8756]

he's not tone deaf. alex used to smoke, and brandon does. they actually sound really good.

[219hxc]

i saw them at the twisted 14 with coheed and cambria and alex really didn't sound bad live it pretty good

[wtbasmi]

fuck they came to ma i live near mansfeild

[DatsdaLittleguy]

god these guys sound really bad in concert

[IamtheGrynch]

This is actually a better performance for Alex than I've seen before... Still fuckin so shitty, though...

[spamfluid89]

Alex, i love you guys, but seriously SCREAM you sound like SHIT when you TRY to sing

[Tomcat54]

I agree...God I love the studio stuff but I'm disappointed by his live vocals. =/ hopefully he gets better. I want to see this band rock completely.

[newmankicksass]

he's horrible---  but atreyu is awesome.

[a7xmetalhead713]

jesus christ. the singer is fucking tone deaf.

the drummer makes him look like shit.

[ravenmoon456]

yea he's a way better screamer

[cellularman99]

the guy in front of looks like he's getting into the music

[drummer4life92392]

Why is Underoath mentioned here? They fucking suck and are a bunch of cocksucking jesus freaks.

[krnhitokori]

this comment screams dumbass

[FromJen2U]

Alex is soo fucking sexy he can sing anyway he wants to and still be awsome :) but i will admit this isn't his best day...

[Shred0Impact]

he doesnt have a best day when he's singing...

[Ty82000]

Oh snap! Good burn man! I agree though.

[missmurder2008]

I can't agree better with you, Alex doesn't have a good day when he sings.

[codeman7173]

the thing is, he doesnt want to scream as much as he used to...the problem is, he ruin'd his voice for singing, so he's kinda sol... i fell kinda bad for him

[randallcormier]

Alex should stick to screaming cause hes wicked at that and let the drummer sing!

[chuckleshasfaith]

Alex is only good for screaming. And the drummer is only good for the some singing.

[Stuntguy27]

Yea. The singing is terrible. I dont like Atreyu much for the singing anyways. =/

[TheKidInURDreams]

Mabey alex had a bad day!!! ever think about that fuckers!!!!

[bag2289]

1. He's like this every time, look up any other live performance.

2. There's a difference between having a bad day and being completely and totally tone deaf. He's a terrible singer. Period.

[IamtheGrynch]

I don't understand how he could sound that bad live... That's like... Wow...

[DonnaginWestgard]

the singing's one thing, but just so long as he doesn't lose screaming power, like matt from trivium did

[divisiondelux]

alex sounds exelent on the album but live...

he sucks

need to work a lot to song better

sorry for my english XD

[kfizzle441]

personally, i like his screaming a lot better.

[cellularman99]

i think brandon was good at the singing but alex not so much

[renorono]

god that singer is horrible live, the engineers must have tweaked his voice so much in the studio

[maxxzildjian]

they must have to do a lot of fixing up on there voices for the alblum

[Zer0528]

alex and brandon need to work on there tone

[matthoben]

wow alex sucks at singing live it makes me so sad

[yllib1213]

damn, alex sounds bad live.

[red44dragon]

thats an ltd version of an explorer..its actually just called the dj- dan jacobs.

[judgemefucker]

wow. he sounds pretty good on the album but live alex sucks at singing

[tonedeafff0818]

Watch closely...at like 1:51-1:53... The singer is first of all skipping around, but in that segment of time he also slaps the guitar players ass...WTF

[HereticJester]

i do that to my friends off guard to fuck with them, another funny thing to do is walk behind them and say...."your hair smells good"

in a soft voice...lol

[tmon999]

lol that guy has the sickest explorer i have ever seen...

but then he went and taped it with green tape,

now y would he do that

[brendanb1236]

ya it is sweet, but idk y the diamond plate is still the koolest fucking thing to me

[wootacular]

Alex sings like a little kid normally sings live. I normally love Atreyu but he should stick to screams. The new CD sounds good tho.

[YourMomOhBurnage]

Is Alex tone deaf or something?....No offense to him or anyone but he can't sing very well live

[fabman430]

tweeter center sucks ass no one ever go there

[Jon37861]

everyone goes to the tweeter center

[drmcc]

week croud

[Chrisislame911]

y is no one moving!?

[Jon37861]

there are seats there so they cant

[jofus2019]

Cut the lead singer. Priase the drummer.

[VillainDC55]

the singer should stick wit screaming cause hes good at that, singing.....not his thing, the drummer is good though, Atreyu still rocks

[purelh]

dan is awesome but holy shit is he short

[noone2722]

yeah i agree seriosuly i like burst out laughing when i heard alex sing its hilarious but does he always sound like that... does anyone kno??????

[pieisexactly3]

The drummer is good at singing... the other guy should never sing... ever.. he sucks

[xX666childXx]

esp

[ravenmoon456]

does anyone know what brand dans gutair is?????????????

[guitarpunk105]

ESP LTD

[gab4554]

only ESP. his sig is an ESP but in their video Becoming the bull he doesnt even use it. He use a copy. Same for TRavis. They both have ESPs. goto espguitars dot com ;)

[Kontagious411]

I think Atreyu is pretty good and there drummer is good. I also think UnderØath is better and there drummer sings aswell. The only other band that I recall having a singer drummer is nightranger.

[mikeatreyuloser45]

actually i dont think underoath is as good as atreyu, mainly because most of their songs sound the same and the songs are hard to get into, and atreyu's guitar players have more talent than underoath.....

[joecooney23]

seriously, do you know what the fuck you are talking about...these guys suck ass!!!!! At least underoath havent sold out yet, and can stay in key during their songs...these guys are fAgGoTs

[mikeatreyuloser45]

yeah but underoath hasnt progressed their sound at all, atreyu has musically progressed since their suicide notes butterfly kisses album, and thats why underoath stays in key because they keep making the same cd over and over.....

[RemjianDrummer]

mikeatreyuloser45 actually your wrong about underoaths progresion. listen to their beginning songs like when the sun sleeps then compare to writing on the walls or something from their newest album. there is something different in all of their albums.

[gab4554]

agreed.

[cschmit8]

umm how bout the rev in a7x

[EvilBeavil]

dan's guitar owns

[0O7James]

oh, so the drummer is the singer, i always thought the screamer dude sang, now the drummer is my favorite member xD

[BIGJAC2699]

the drummer is so bad ass

his singing omg man o man that shit gave me goosbumps

[Daxter1989]

Where was this at? It looks like it was from West Palm Beach.

[SabufanX]

it says in the name....Mansfield, Massachusetts

[swl]

wow drummer is a better singer than the lead vocalist.lol Music is awsome but lead vocals suck unless he's screaming.

[Hybrid461]

drummer is the lead singer. vocalist just did screaming untill this album

[swl]

oh okay. I've never really listened to these guys till just now. I heard they were good so I figured I'd check em out. So far I think they are okay from what Ive heard.

[UHSftball54]

Brandon uses Truth custom drums. correct. and vader sticks. he switches around with cymbals, i have seen him with Istanbul and Zildjian cymbals before.

[washileru]

mmmm last cd aint that good :(

[DraXXuter222]

new album suxx IMO

[jsrazor215]

I'll admit that it wasn't a great job, but I'd say it's not toooo bad. He definitly needs to learn how to sing a little better. I did, however, cringe in the beginning. Drummer on the hand kicks ass.

[thepoison73377]

are you kidding?

brandon's voice is amazing live.

plus if you dont like it, dont watch it. simple.

[LosingxSight]

thats the worst singing i've heard live. lead sails was fucking shit

[DBGProductionss]

alex sucks balls at singing he can only scream and they even took that away from him

[metalgods13]

wow...they sounded really good on there cd... good thing im not Paying to see this

[CelastialGaze4]

peas**

[CelastialGaze4]

wow they are worse then the black eyed pease live =_=

[RetaliationX]

Wow Alex really sucks live

[ihatetn]

There the new RED JUMP SUIT APARATUS.

BOO.

[pretanga]

the drummer is the only one who is credible i say in this performance

[D34dF4kToR]

yeah i was in the pit during their set that day. they really arent that great live..

[antiochband]

lolz, do these scenefag cocksuckers raid their sisters' closets before every show?

[zenshift]

bad in studio worse live

[MoanaLindsey]

It's sad when a drummer can sing better then the singer while multi-tasking.

[funneverends]

its not sad for the drummer. sad for the vocalist, hanging around to wait for the drummer to finish singing.

[ranger17]

oh well..

:(

[funneverends]

ive been an atreyu fan since curse. i was surprised i liked the cd. but varkatzas's voice is horrible live trying to sing high! he should just scream and do nothing else.

[Slayallica84]

I love Atreyu and all but they have always been a better album band than live...Alex has lost his touch as a vocalist and all in all they as a band have become more trendy which sucks...but I still enjoy their music, just not nearly as much as I did in the days of the curse and suicide notes...

[bigguitargod]

wow i granted im not a atreyu fan by any means, but i happen to find "becoming the bull" how you say nice, its not something id recommened to anyone but its somethign that doesnt bother my ear, with that being said this live version of the song...........sucks hard, its horrible,

[Darkstar0318]

wow this song sucks and so does the new cd for that matter, if you are an old Atreyu fan and you tell me you like their new cd then your a fucking moron, he is so off key and cant sing that is why we had the drummer now the band is just bull shit sell outs, you will see them with fall out boy and hawthorne heights soon

[JENoooOOO]

LOL well, sorry to tell you but....hawthorne heights got dropped by victory records

[Darkstar0318]

good, maybe they will just give up because they suck ass

[JENoooOOO]

well, Their a little good.....

[Darkstar0318]

no that band is awful, not only do their songs suck and they flat out talk about cutting themselves and crying like emo bitches they are even worse live

[robster80]

this shit is badass

[davidrules0706]

the drummer has a better voice than the lead singer

[monkinator]

thats because before the most recent album, the drummer sung what little parts were supposed to be sung, and the "lead" singer screamed pretty much everything else

[rnranp]

lol

[Krimson390]

this shit sucks...wow

[yousuckimnumber1]

it looks like the bassist wears the same shirt every day on this tour what a dirtball . . . haha

[crimsonkiss007]

wow alex singing is just not doin it for me Especially live. If this was the first song that Atreyu ever wrote or if this was the album they released instead of the curse i guarantee we would not be seeing much of Atreyu these days cause this sucks.

[mattgro777]

alex has one of he best screaming voices around and if he did more of that on the new album it would amazing

[oscarstegland]

Alex can't pull the singing shit off live. I really dig the new album it's very different but A Death-Grip was better. Why is there a 3rd guitarrist behind Travis for the first portion of the video? I love how tiny Big Dan is :D

[trainwreckmetal]

Guitar tech

[oscarstegland]

I figured but why's he playing with them? Is there three guitar parts or what? Cuz usually between the two of them Dan and Travis can pull off most stuff.

[trainwreckmetal]

he is probaly playing them to get strings streched and then get it back in tune.

[bigcritic101]

why do you listen to a band if you aer just going to talk shit??...

its called an opinion

[willicicci3]

why do you listen to a band if you aer just going to talk shit??

honestly,the new album is better than a deathgrip on yesterday

that album was a letdown

[sevensoles]

the reason the crowd is that it's a new song and everybody stops trashing to listen to the song!learn your new live songs tips dude!p.s.the singer kinda sucks live(not the drummer cauz he rocks)but man they would be better with a new frontman now that there is way less screams cause if he cant get the job done live they gotta do something to fix it!

[gburgwill2008]

omg thanks sooo much 4 this video, i tried to record it but right before they started to sing, some a-hole told me to put away my cam!! but surprisingly nobody else told me the rest of the day... go fidgure

[feardabrood]

really? thats weird...I had no problem with my camera there, and there was a bunch of Tweeter personel all around where I was sitting. Well anyways, glad you enjoyed the video.

[fishdog11110000]

wow the crowd seems less than exited but this song is pretty bad ass

[bobzero]

wow. it figures that Atreyu would rip off the Inspector Gadget theme song melody, seeing as how theyre signed to a fuckn record label owned by Disney. prob thought that if they had a melody from a cartoon theyd draw in more youngens for a new fan base.

[bigcritic101]

fucking hillarious !

[CalmLikeABomb115]

HAHAHAHAAHA!! I DIDNT EVEN THINK OF THAT! ..the main riff kinda does sound like it LOL

[vickylovesgreenday]

i wish alex screamed more, but yeah this song is good =]

[oddminion]

i think hes makeing a good try at singing in tune but just isnt really manageing. but for someone whos screamed there whole life its no wonder they have a bad voice

[Bear261186]

Notice no1 is moshing, I wonder why, The new album sux

[SuperCheeseGuy]

Its Because , There Are Seats In That Venue ...

[nickgassaway]

The drummer does have a good voice.

[Devon8999]

He gets most of the notes right, his voice just shouldn't go as high as it does in this song...

[MetalMatt01]

That lead singer cuking sucks live but the drummer sings so well it unbelievable
