Atheist - Mother Man (Wacken 2006'

They just dont sound the same without the third guitar (sarcasm)

Yeah, but give them credit, I think this was their fourth show as a reunited band, they've gotten better since 06

I think they're either bored or so focused on playing that they can't make much of a stage show. It's a VERY hard song to play after all. Also, they (especially Tony) seem to be more of jazz musicians than metalheads and you don't see jazz players headbanging very often :)

As for the vocals, dude's getting old and so are his vocal cords. Not much he can do about it.

@DangerSheep yeah well, I respect the fact that they most likely never were a live band (like SLAYER is for example). They are more what one can call "MUSICIANS" and really damn good ones! Nevertheless, although they are Jazz musicians, they are actually playing "jazzy death metal". In such a genre, your fans expect more from you, livewise... I guess it's because I am more into the death metal philosophy rather than the clear jazz way of thinking... Look at Chuck and Death for example ;)

chuck didn't headband much actually. like he did but he wouldn't go insane. haha

I dont think they r bored mate ^^ they r just rly concentrated... This stuff's hard to play as you say after all ;)

@DangerSheep "which is what really messes my voice up. I could sing all day but talking all day is not good, and that's why my voice was so strange on the Wacken show in 2006, I was doing interviews for hours just before playing that afternoon, and well...my voice suffered." Is what he said in an interview about his singing.

whoever stillborn01 is THANK YOU!! this is some great old school shit! i used to love these guys!
