@@NeostormXLMAX there’s a great rig video on TH-cam somewhere where he explains a bit of it. A lot of his sound is just his amps turned all the way up haha
It's mainly just great song writing, but if you watch the rig run down, "sonically" it explains a lot (like using a DI just for for the low end and keeping that clean, keeping the actual amps in the mid range, plus what Ramon W said).
Whoever filmed and edited this video is a damn genius. Probably one of the best live videos I have ever seen. Always coming back to watch it another time.
I could see the wrinkles in my pants changing shape the first time I saw them and I was standing still, sober and indoors. The volume was unbelievable.
sounds like garbage tho lol i saw them live twice and both times the mix was so fucking horrendous i couldn't even make out what song they were playing.
@@michaelbarnett8878 yeah I think any nasty distortion can get close though I played a bass through my guitar pedal board with a pro co rat and it did a good job it’s probably pretty hard to get one of those peaveys he’s got
I see more people commenting about Royal Blood on DFA videos than the contrary. That really shows which people care and who doesn't. Btw, in a time where good rock and roll is rare, we should just enjoy both band existence.
@@romainj4383 yeah I feel like it's totally okay to get inspiration from certain sounds and copy them, as long as you change certain stuff and add your own flair to it. That pretty much how new sounds and new genres get created, right? Royal blood totally bring their own sound to it.
Stop comparing Royal blood to them you blithering bafoon. Literally the only similarity is that they are a two piece(drums and bass) apart from that, they are wildly different. God, how can people even listen to music when they can’t even hear the difference between two of the greatest rock bands of the modern era.. *sigh*
Please have DFA on again, this is so goooood. Btw it sounds cool when there is a room mic bleed, makes it sound big and gives it a sort of effect that makes you feel like your physically there watching the epic monstrosity.
These concerts take me back to being a kid at the little punk shows and just getting my face melted by the decibels and loving every second of watching these bands do their thing. Good times
he said in an interview that he is colorblind and that makes him have a hard time picking a shirt and that he likes the fabrics of that brand(can´t remember brand)
Probably just the usual stage outfit thing, having a certain thing that was deliberately chosen. That's pretty common and even many bands' outfits that don't look like they are actively selected stage outfits totally are.
35:40 and after blows the fucking doors off! Because of DFA some of my neighbours have issues with me. I heard that Paul S. had the same issue when he let them practice in his backyard studio.... personally... I can't get enough of it!
I see in 2004 DFA 1979 in London, small bar, it was best band I ever seen... I'm glad to know is come back to show "what's the rock" many people compare with royal blood but is wrong! The spirits of fda 79 was incredible.
this is funny. I thought that this was strombo's house as I used to walk past it all the time but never knew. The only thing that gave it away was once he was out front trying to start an old CB 750 as I was walking by.
This is so good is spit Molson Ice on my monitor. Great audio mix Strombo. I like how DFA has grown in to a tame, cool, suavely, version of their of their punk rock self. More dance less slam.

By God. The grit on that bass.
Solid State amps!
YESbabeh!!!!!!!
How is he able to get this sound on the bass?
@@NeostormXLMAX there’s a great rig video on TH-cam somewhere where he explains a bit of it. A lot of his sound is just his amps turned all the way up haha

The rig rundown
They've been doing this a decade before Royal Blood so I don't wanna hear any comparisons from you people.
Jacob Daniel Thank you
They have a different vibe anyways
Jacob Daniel they're two different bands with very different sounds. Fuck anyone who says ones a copy of the other
Honestly I see no relation other than the duo aspect of the two bands. I relate RB more with Queens of the Stone Age than anyone else.
Jamie Lawson ikr?? Only similarities are totally superficial which are only 2 members, a drummer and a bassist
I watch this twice a month, minimum, from here til infinity
I’m glad I’m not alone, brother.
I like to listen to study
I accidentally hit like on 69..70. Had to take it back sorry friend
Same same
I average about the same. Crankin' it through some 12s and shakin' the windows right now.
It’s insane that they get such a full sound out of a two piece. This was filmed and edited so well too
Thanks to two very loud amplifiers and a mic'd up kit.
It's mainly just great song writing, but if you watch the rig run down, "sonically" it explains a lot (like using a DI just for for the low end and keeping that clean, keeping the actual amps in the mid range, plus what Ramon W said).
Only the 4 bassist cords and the drums... They give you so much energy with this!
They have the two most crucial instruments in a rock band. The two instruments that make rock music rock HARD
Local H has the same vibe and is a 2 piece. Maybe 2 piece bands are the superior band
1:25 Nomad
6:19 Going Steady
9:46 Little Girl
17:51 White Is Red
24:02 Holy Books
31:54 Helter Skelter
36:30 Romantic Rights
helter skelter at 31:54
The set list is at the description
@@DakotaBusCaptures I seriously hadn't seen the list
36:30 Needs more cowbell. Bah-dum tsshhh! I'll show myself out.
White is red was fire
My soul left my body watching Eliza take the drums. OMG!!! ❤
This helter-skelter cover was fire
The best live video from DFA, so far.
there is a legendary show in amsterdam from 2005, it should still be up on here. But I agree, this is amazing!
And so many more great performances to come :)
@@arrowhead1867 the one at the bronson centre in Ottawa was amazing. Best show I've ever seen. idk if it's on yt tho
I agree. I was really happy to see it
I agree :)
The audio mix on the recording is outstanding, especially for a live show so brazenly loud & noisy.
Whoever filmed and edited this video is a damn genius. Probably one of the best live videos I have ever seen. Always coming back to watch it another time.
"Tina Fey! Tina Fey! Tina Fey!"
Love these guys!
Insane band
His bass tells such a story with that tone
His singing style meshes so perfectly with it.
magic.
12:42 Sebastian's scream was actually super awesome
Dude kills it on bass!
The loudest band I’ve ever seen live. My ears were ringing for days.
I could see the wrinkles in my pants changing shape the first time I saw them and I was standing still, sober and indoors. The volume was unbelievable.
sounds like garbage tho lol i saw them live twice and both times the mix was so fucking horrendous i couldn't even make out what song they were playing.
I know same. Mind was blown for a week
Another band super loud is Big Sugar.
Tinnitus never felt so good
First time listening to DFA
This is amazing
Welcome welcome!!
Death From Above 1979 covering the Beatles is not something I thought would work, but they pulled it off.
That’s one of the heaviest Beatles songs, way ahead of its time, so it makes sense for an alternative rock band to play that classic. Awesome tune
that snare drum sounds like a cartoon smack in the face.
I'd like to get something similar from mine
@@rams81rule Go get the "Big Fat Snare Drum" topper. Tune the bottom head medium and the top head super tight, then put the topper on. Bingo.
The combination of the timing and camera work @ 13:53 is insane and sooo good
The t-shirt co-ordination, too... Uncanny.
True art.
and the girl is amazing
I've just discovered this live set three days ago. This is probably my 20th listen.
Fuck. DFA, man. So good.
Bandooon
I'll never forgive myself for missing this show.
DFA1979 was high school 04-08 for me. Great memories
That was brutally good.
this is the grooviest band of all time, change my mind
Funkadelic? Dfa’s my favourite
Primus
The floozies.
The bassist looks like an emo kratos.
This is the weirdest comparison I've ever seen and what's weirder is I kinda see it lmao
Eliza did such an awesome job in the last song
Such a signature sound, unmistakably DFA. Drum and bass at it's BEST!
That Dan Armstrong bass really helps it
You can definitely hear this band's influence on Royal Blood records
Dr. Disrespect killing the drums
Anyone with a mustache is dr. Disrespect? Great joke!
So much energy, so much sound. And yet, it's from a duo. Incredible.
Making me wanna buy a bass.
And like 20.pedals
@@Sporacle a good octave, a fuzz, and an Ampeg are really all that's needed. Since this comment I now own a bass lol
@@hyperstimmed he uses distortion straight from the amp. No fuzz pedals
@@michaelbarnett8878 yeah I think any nasty distortion can get close though I played a bass through my guitar pedal board with a pro co rat and it did a good job it’s probably pretty hard to get one of those peaveys he’s got
He uses an old Peavey head. I think it's called a showman. His Rig Rundown is sick if you're into gear. Pretty sure it's still on TH-cam. Best.
That performance of Romantic Rights was sick!!!
Tom B1rks I know, it was actually good, not dissing them, it's just usually I can't bear them live but that was excellent
Why do I keep coming back here ! It’s simply just that good this live ❤
Jesse has the most badass appearance I've ever seen in a band.
Brazil need you guys so bad!
The world*
Eles já tocaram aqui mano! Fui no show, 2011 se não me falha a memória, no festival eletrônico UMF, tem uns vídeos no YT.
Eles estavam escalados pra tocar no lolla 2020 se n me engano :/
Reminds me of my brother and me❤the good old days
31:55 helter skelter
DFA 1979 set the bar for crunch-rock back in the 00s. Royal Blood emulated their sound. Two different sounds, similar genre.
I see more people commenting about Royal Blood on DFA videos than the contrary. That really shows which people care and who doesn't. Btw, in a time where good rock and roll is rare, we should just enjoy both band existence.

This is hands down the best thing on TH-cam
That bass is sooooooo muddy I love it.
So glad you guys have a recording of this!
bass and drums....all you need. its how i do it too. great band. great show
Came to this video in a low moment, really helps me cope to see such an amazing band/show. I miss live music..
Canadas so DOPE....love me from NYC
Stellar performance of "White is Red" (@17:50)
the intro of that song is just the best thing I've ever heard
True, beautiful
I've just discovered this band and I'm amazed.
Welcome!
Please have DFA on again, this is so goooood. Btw it sounds cool when there is a room mic bleed, makes it sound big and gives it a sort of effect that makes you feel like your physically there watching the epic monstrosity.
sick editing on romantic rights. job guys!
Actual Ghost p
Oh daaayyum!! That Helter Skelter cover was SICK!!
Love Eliza and love you guys. Patiently waiting for your europe tour.
These concerts take me back to being a kid at the little punk shows and just getting my face melted by the decibels and loving every second of watching these bands do their thing. Good times
How does this not have a trillion views
Jesse is a god
That groove at 12 minutes i can listen to for enternity
Awesome video! That Beatles song gave me chills! Also, this rendition of Romantic Rights is always great!
Such a fucking cool version holy shit
I’m both a fan of Beatles and DFA and to see that happen made me so happy
Little girl.
Can't get it out of my head, now the white is red 🎶
The absolute fucking energy coming from these guys is unbelievable
Has anyone else noticed Jesse pretty much wears that same shirt every show? Do you think he has multiple? Or is it the same one every time?
I've heard there are multiple Jesse's. They grew them in a lab, then dressed them all the same and released them into the wild.
Only Smello'vision can tell...
he said in an interview that he is colorblind and that makes him have a hard time picking a shirt and that he likes the fabrics of that brand(can´t remember brand)
Probably just the usual stage outfit thing, having a certain thing that was deliberately chosen. That's pretty common and even many bands' outfits that don't look like they are actively selected stage outfits totally are.
Thats pretty normal for touring bands
Dat Beatles cover!
So many in the audience who do not even seem to understand what they are experiencing. Awesome gig
"do you wanna play more songs"
"yes please"
Mad props to strombo...ny underground dj 32 years and always hve my antennas up for new muzica..and LMAO never heard frim death above...S.O.L.D
His symbol work is underappreciated....
Bird looked sick on the drums.
35:40 and after blows the fucking doors off! Because of DFA some of my neighbours have issues with me. I heard that Paul S. had the same issue when he let them practice in his backyard studio.... personally... I can't get enough of it!
This set goes so hard. Huge sound. Love these guys.
These guys are sick. Definitely one of my top bands.
My favorite band covering another favorite band!!! Loved the cover DFA!!!
I see in 2004 DFA 1979 in London, small bar, it was best band I ever seen... I'm glad to know is come back to show "what's the rock" many people compare with royal blood but is wrong! The spirits of fda 79 was incredible.
I can't wait to see them in Chicago in November.
I've watched this quite a few times now.....Come play in my house guys!!!
Thank you! To everyone involved... thank you!
i feel the power, sounds like the name!
one of the best live recording i've seen
Awesome!! So great to see DFA back doing things.
Recorded horizontally:)
this is funny. I thought that this was strombo's house as I used to walk past it all the time but never knew. The only thing that gave it away was once he was out front trying to start an old CB 750 as I was walking by.
As soon as I was thinking about it, it pops up in my recommended. I watch this every weekend
this is the coolest video ive ever seen in my life
I mean the sounds in white is red... Gorgeous stuff.
This is so good is spit Molson Ice on my monitor. Great audio mix Strombo. I like how DFA has grown in to a tame, cool, suavely, version of their of their punk rock self. More dance less slam.
going steady is so fucking clean and perfect here
First time I heard DFA was live at Buffalo Billiards in Austin, TX during SXSW 2004 I believe it was. Great Show.
These guys sound so good live. Their an awesome band.
Hammer!!!
I remember seeing them 13 years ago...one of my favorite concerts I've been to. I believe they were touring with metric and Billy talent
That's when I discovered DFA, on that specific tour.
This video is blessed
One of my all time favourite bands. Have not seen them live yet but they seem to be phenomenal
This cover of Helter Skelter is the best that ever was in terms of Beatles covers for me
this mans bass tone gives me literal fucking chills
And he does it on gear that most people consider junk. Old solid state Peavey amp, Dan Armstrong bass, a cheap Ibanez stereo chorus pedal, etc.
Wowsers! i had all but forgotten about DFA and happened across this session. i'm blown away!
Totally crazy that they covered a Beatles song so good like that. Nice to see Paul still dippin his toes in the modern rock scene
fucking smashed it. Bravo Eliza
I've now watched this about six times.
Its like a good movie , never gets old or boring
2022 the beaches n The Blue stones in February then DFA in March at London Music Hall, so fucking excited.
I fucking love this band.
I think if you ended up in the center of the sun and it was empty and a disco party started it would sound like this band
22:07 That talk OMG
sick drum's rhytim subdivision in little girl
