Mastodon - The Czar (Live at Roskilde Festival, July 1st, 2011)

[meket112]

people keep saying that Mastodon have poor vocals. I strongly dissagree with that statement. The vocals have to enhance and carry on the concept of the music/song and the general mood of the band, which in my opinion in mastodon's case is done excellently.

[fringelo]

@meket112 totally. most people who say that have also never seen them live..

[jedimastersupercat]

Excellent song.

[wedonttastetheair]

the vocals work with the music mastodon creates. \m/

[EmilAhlback]

Looks like Brent's really blown his voice here. See the Live at Aragon DVD and he doesn't sing this bad here (although he doesn't sing very good live, but who can when playing awesome riffs like that?!). Is it just me or is Troy signaling "I got this" at @03:55?

[JerkItWithJergens99]

vocals suck try signing and playing at the same time and see how good you really are that shits fucking hard as fuck.....ps and FUCK NICKELBACK

[jgribhamnz]

love this song. Mastodon have such a cool sound for a metal band.. I don't even notice the apparently poor vocals. im just in amazement at the killer riffs

[jingsken]

impressive

[Ryu12543]

I'm tied between this and The Last Baron as their greatest song. Calling Crack the Skye a masterpiece is an insult.

03:50 Troy: "Thanks for giving me back the spotlight dude"

[tasikas75]

love these guys, but the are not natural voclists and it shows in their live performances

[ThePunkbebe]

@tasikas75 they have struggled, but they have also improved greatly. And it also sounds worse in videos. If you see them live, the vocals fit in perfectly because their performance is so freakin powerful, ive seen them twice already and both have been the best concerts. now i got them again this november

[TheOpethOfMastodon]

@tasikas75 you got to remember that touring for months at a time can really blow your voice

[jkjl234]

@tasikas75 they've gotten much better live. brent still lags on certain songs, but watch vids from the current "The Hunter" tour and i guarentee your opinion on there live vocals will change.

[willingtotry]

what camera do you have dude, for real.

[danutd94]

Fuck....

[GyratorMusic]

Brent's motion at 7:36 gave me chills

[mexmurder13]

Thats right there better be no dislikes!!!!!

[NoobDante]

and how many strings that fucking guitar has? jesus

[ohkilla]

@NoobDante Well... It's a twelve string. So... Twelve. It has twelve strings.

[NoobDante]

@ohkilla hahaaahaha thats what i think to now that i see well thanks man

[666lucky13]

@ohkilla 9 string. Matt pike (High on Fire), Bill, and Brent all have the same guitar. It's got the bottom 3 strings doubled and the top three are standard. They're made by First Act.

[666lucky13]

Ok, this version is a 12 string. Thought it was the 9 string.

[DryBoneValley]

@666lucky13 Bill uses the 9-string. Hinds the 12-string. Both is First Act guitars (:

[NoobDante]

since that fucking comercial, i only think of brent saying THANKS ELMYR, fuck why

[king7299]

LOL at brent snagging a pick with his mouth at 00:14

[megalod1991]

[HeebieJeebies11]

We were so there!

[4vengedsevenfold]

incredible riffs... what a band... and, just like tool, nobody knows them, at least in Italy but I think in Europe aswell

[sleepwalker658]

@4vengedsevenfold they're pretty huge in the united states.

[3SkatingLibras]

@sleepwalker658 well, they are big here in europe to, but seriously, they should be HUGE.

[jkjl234]

@3SkatingLibras they should be metallica in the early 90s huge

[NattenOfficial]

00:11 "om nom nom"

[LordOfChaosPT]
