Mastodon playing their best song, Oblivion, on Pinkpop festival 2014 in Holland. Brann Dailor's microphone is not working to well, but great nevertheless.
LMFAOOOO SORRY! Did you ask Alban if the whole live performance was shit and the ones singing need to go back to lessons and stop using artificial things to make their music "sound good" on the internet and CD's?
@@PicklMyNickle we just don't give a fuck. He said it's a great composition. Live performance may not be the greatest, you have to remember that none of them actuallly wanted to sing. They've improved alot live tho.
Brann always has the best live drum sound. It's hard to get drums to sound big and heavy without sounding flubby and boomy while still cutting through the mix but not being overpowering. Their engineers definitely know what they're doing. The dudes doing Gojira's sound know what's up too
When this CD first came out I must have listened to this song about 100 times in a row during my commutes back and forth from work. I then realized I would have to stop for a while because it was putting me in a....um....."mood". After I stopped spinning the CD in my car I recall it took a few months before my brain stopped spinning it continuously in my head. 😜🤐🤩😶🥺😬🤩
It's a festival mix. They sound fine here, it's just hard to find great mixes from festival performances unless they've been mixed and mastered by the band.
Hey guys they are amazing live ok? You only need them to lip sync the music and be mastered and mixed by the band only ok? You have to feel the music in your bones like James Bargar to really get the "live" performance. I personally can shit into a dumpster and make better noises with my asshole better than this. The instruments are damn good but the vocals are LITERAL SHIT.
Metal is probably the only genre thats lucrative without touring. An acquired taste that doesnt attract spectators like before. No sold out arenas but fans will still buy the music.
For anyone commenting on the crowd, they were on the same lineup as Artic Monkeys, John Meyer and Ed Sheeran, so that might explain why everyone was like O_o
I saw this band back in 2001 in a little club in fayette ville Arkansas before they even made it big on relapse records they were not even signed yet but they tore it up
Oblivion Mastodon I flew beyond the Sun before it was time Burning all the gold that held me inside my shell Waiting for you to pull me back in I almost had the world in my sight Lost love, bright eyes fading Faster than stars falling How can I tell you that I've failed Tell you I failed Falling from grace cause I've been away too long Leaving you behind with my lonesome song Now I'm lost in oblivion I tried to burrow a hole into the ground Breaking all the fingers and the nails from my hand The eyes of a child see no wrong Ignorant bliss impending doom Lost love, bright eyes fading Faster than stars falling How can I tell you that I've failed Tell you I failed Falling from grace cause I've been away too long Leaving you behind with my lonesome song Now I'm lost Falling from grace cause I've been away too long Leaving you behind with my lonesome song Now I'm lost in oblivion Falling from grace cause I've been away too long Leaving you behind with my lonesome song Now I'm lost Falling from grace cause I've been away too long Leaving you behind with my lonesome song Now I'm lost in oblivion In oblivion In oblivion
Am I the only one who prefers Troy's vocals on this song live instead of the studio version? The way he enunciates some of the lines just sounds... badass.
Genghis Kon I feel that way in every song. Troy's live voice is fucking delicious. Its not bad studio version, but most the time its him screaming on the studio version
Not a dead crowd. This is the kind of band you just watch do their thing. It isn't just heavy, it has meaning unlike Jock Rock that is just for moshing
Holy shit, this was great ! The best performance of Oblivion ever recorded pro shot ! What great vocals from Hinds ! Is there any other song proshot from Pinkpop ?
If I pay for a ticket to see a show. I can do what I damn well please(within reason of course) I'm the type of guy to sit there and listen to the music. I don't head bang I don't dance I pay to listen and see a live performance. For people to be angry I'm not thrashing around is stupid.
Folks complaining about the sleeping guy. You clearly didn't hear the news story, that guy is dead. Brent looked him directly in the eyes during the solo and he was killed instantly.
+Matheus Salabert Mixing problem... the sound tech is a moron... who knows if they got to do a sound check or not but if they did, the mixer guy is useless
![Mastodon - Oblivion [Live]](/img/n.gif)
Producer: "Ok Mastodon band, whos gonna sing?"
Band: "Yes"
🤣🤣 I thought the same thing
Bill, in the corner: Nah, I'm good, you guys have a ball.
Funniest comment ever
The only rule for singing in Mastodon is "BILL SHUT THE FUCK UP"
@J.PC.Designs Bill has only done some backing vocals. So in a way, yes. But not in a way like a main singer like the other three guys. Cheers
That damn bass distortion on this song almost made me weep. I am not crying. You are crying.
How did you know?
I follow Mastodon since their beginnings. Maybe someone in the crowd was not ready to hear their sound. Best band in the last 20 years
Alongside gojira, and guess what, theyre touring together!!!!!
I see people enjoying themselves.
The public doesn't have to be JUMPING AND SCREAMING all the time to enjoy a performance.
The crowd seems not to understand Oblivion is one of the best composition of all rock and metal band these last 10 years.
Alban DA SILVA true
Then the mixing guy fucks the intro up.
Alban DA SILVA, 5:01, that guy gets it.
LMFAOOOO SORRY! Did you ask Alban if the whole live performance was shit and the ones singing need to go back to lessons and stop using artificial things to make their music "sound good" on the internet and CD's?
@@PicklMyNickle we just don't give a fuck. He said it's a great composition. Live performance may not be the greatest, you have to remember that none of them actuallly wanted to sing. They've improved alot live tho.
Forget the vocals harmonies and the lazy crowd, that Zon bass sounds M E A N
Tom Collins it’s perfect.
Plus he absolutely kills it on vocals. Hands down one of the most underrated bassists/vocalists of all time
I've wanted a Zon since seeing Billy Gould with one back in the 90's. Unfortunately they cost more than my car....
Alex Hennigh absolutely
The riff underneath the verses is so fkn evil...easily one of the best openers of any album. Can't say enough about Crack the Skye as an album.
one of the best songs ever created!!!
HAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHA FUCKING DUMBASS
@@PicklMyNickle Why so negative bro? Mastodon writes better stuff than you ever could
Brann always has the best live drum sound. It's hard to get drums to sound big and heavy without sounding flubby and boomy while still cutting through the mix but not being overpowering. Their engineers definitely know what they're doing. The dudes doing Gojira's sound know what's up too
Tama Starclassic baby. My kit sounds just like this. Starclassic Bubinga.
1:10 that is one strong P
Holy shit his killed me LOLOL
PPPull me back in
That means he definitely had strong feelings when singing. ALWAYS write vocals you enjoy and feel.
I cant stop pressing your comment lol
Mastodon and Gojira makes this world tolerable. Thanks for exist!
Meshuggah?
it's true ..
15 days from the first time I heard mastodon and I can't believe I've never heard of them before, what an amazing band
When this CD first came out I must have listened to this song about 100 times in a row during my commutes back and forth from work. I then realized I would have to stop for a while because it was putting me in a....um....."mood". After I stopped spinning the CD in my car I recall it took a few months before my brain stopped spinning it continuously in my head. 😜🤐🤩😶🥺😬🤩
That verse guitar riff/drumming/singing is one of the coolest sections ive ever heard
Especially how it goes from 3/4 to a 4/4 chorus
Yeah, right.
The chorus is 8/4. The fast part before going back to 8/4 is actually a 3/8. And the verses are 3/4.
The bass is the loudest instrument
I wish there was a live performance of mastodon where I could hear Brann singing more clearly.
It's a festival mix. They sound fine here, it's just hard to find great mixes from festival performances unless they've been mixed and mastered by the band.
Brokenscam they absolutely killed it last year at bloodstock. The sound was perfect
joe winkler You're an idiot. They're amazing live.
Hey guys they are amazing live ok? You only need them to lip sync the music and be mastered and mixed by the band only ok? You have to feel the music in your bones like James Bargar to really get the "live" performance. I personally can shit into a dumpster and make better noises with my asshole better than this.

Na man mics are just really shit here.
5:02 only guy who deserves to be there.
Completely agree
This dude is riding the craziest acid wave most likely 😂
5:17 but this guy looks to be lost in oblivion too
Mastodon is the epoch of metal. Crack the Skye is imo, the best metal album of this century.
Hushed and grim is up there but I agree , the album is an anomaly
it's the first track I ever heard of Mastodon...brilliant track and I was here in 2014......awesome live performance!
That initial chord transition gets me every time. I heard of this song like 10 years ago on Adult Swim lol and still 🔥🔥
Falling from grace cuz I've been away too long, leaving you behind with my lonesome song, now I'm lost in oblivion....
5:19 definitely on a trip
Just a fucking awesome band, this song is so well written
Always imagine walking into this festival in the morning and not knowing who powertrip were and wandering into this amazing set.
Wish it was me
Epic performance by Mastodon, those wild dudes on guitar can both really sing too, love it!
i feel the pain of singing this and playing it at the same time
Brent's vocals sound fucking unbelievable in this performance
Metal is probably the only genre thats lucrative without touring. An acquired taste that doesnt attract spectators like before. No sold out arenas but fans will still buy the music.
if you like mastodon you're already my friend :)
The Whole Crack the Sky is a masterpiece !
Fuck yes! 💙💙💙
Fucking love the bass sound (4:24 you can hear it at its best)
Im an old fart , i play old school hard rock ( vanhalen etc) these guys are fucking unreal . Such a great band . Im speechless
Best Performance EVER!
5:17 when that acid takes you to Oblivion.
Nah that's DMT
That's fucking hilarious
Brann is the best singing drummer ever
No shade but I think that's gotta be Levon Helm.
Brann is awesome, but also great is Don Henley from Eagles)
Don from the Eagles is absolutely one and the only.
I have been lucky enough to see MASTODON afew times live...and I still get chills hearing them, a Fuckin' awesome band live 🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼
They are Soo fucking great!
And 2 years ago I'd never heard of them! love this song!!
beautiful song
Brann rules!
And what a great life.seeing the country/ world, doing what you love and getting paid millions.doesnt get any better than that.
Best live version I've seen
the bass sounds so mean on this recording!
just the way it should be
For anyone commenting on the crowd, they were on the same lineup as Artic Monkeys, John Meyer and Ed Sheeran, so that might explain why everyone was like O_o
I wouldn't be jumping. I'd be stunned with the tremendous melodic cacophony coming off that stage. Whew!
These dudes are before their time *
Before there time? DID IT BURN ALL THE GOLD THEM INSIDE THEIR SHELL???? BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
This is an incredible live version of this song. Blown away
FinaLLY,, a really creative as fuk band with it’s roots in MeTAL- it’s what our souls have been craving!!!
2:06: I don’t care what anyone says........this is the coolest kid in his school.
Eu queria mastodon , gojira e meshuggah no rock no rio seria fantástico .
Mês passado teve Mastodon e Gojira em São Paulo, shows muito foda
Great song, and a really tight performance. Love it!
Brent makes a constipation face when he sings
1:23 and while playing
i don't care.... i have this huge crush on that man lol
Acid
Who the fook is Brent?
@@johnguanciale258 the lead guitarist (yellow shirt).
such a beautiful song and a killer performance!
I am in love with the whole band 😎
I saw this band back in 2001 in a little club in fayette ville Arkansas before they even made it big on relapse records they were not even signed yet but they tore it up
i just met troy and he signed my guitar. we also had a q and a with him
Excuse meee? That’s epic. Where can I find this Q&A?
@@heylittleman8084 lmao sorry for the late response. It was with the School of Rock Program in Atlanta since they are local there
Oblivion
Mastodon
I flew beyond the Sun before it was time
Burning all the gold that held me inside my shell
Waiting for you to pull me back in
I almost had the world in my sight
Lost love, bright eyes fading
Faster than stars falling
How can I tell you that I've failed
Tell you I failed
Falling from grace cause I've been away too long
Leaving you behind with my lonesome song
Now I'm lost in oblivion
I tried to burrow a hole into the ground
Breaking all the fingers and the nails from my hand
The eyes of a child see no wrong
Ignorant bliss impending doom
Lost love, bright eyes fading
Faster than stars falling
How can I tell you that I've failed
Tell you I failed
Falling from grace cause I've been away too long
Leaving you behind with my lonesome song
Now I'm lost
Falling from grace cause I've been away too long
Leaving you behind with my lonesome song
Now I'm lost in oblivion
Falling from grace cause I've been away too long
Leaving you behind with my lonesome song
Now I'm lost
Falling from grace cause I've been away too long
Leaving you behind with my lonesome song
Now I'm lost in oblivion
In oblivion
In oblivion
I saw Mastodon live in Atlanta and it was absolutely legendary, 19 song set list of great songs!
Man this is the best karaoke backing track I've ever heard.
Masterpiece.
This is for those who get what they're about. Ain't for everyone but it's so good for us.
we want more!!!
!!!!! fantasticos virtuosos !!!
Am I the only one who prefers Troy's vocals on this song live instead of the studio version? The way he enunciates some of the lines just sounds... badass.
Genghis Kon I feel that way in every song. Troy's live voice is fucking delicious. Its not bad studio version, but most the time its him screaming on the studio version
Genghis Kon I fully agree. He's amazing live
First time heard this song and that was fucking sick!!! Where have I been all these years? WOW
Love mastodon!!!!
You know i would complain about how dead the crowd is.
But then i realized this was in the Netherlands, so 90% is high anyway
Not a dead crowd. This is the kind of band you just watch do their thing. It isn't just heavy, it has meaning unlike Jock Rock that is just for moshing
Does Brent sing the first lines because he's noticed Brann's mic being low do people think?
nope. he always does it.
5:17
In oblivion
Holy shit, this was great ! The best performance of Oblivion ever recorded pro shot ! What great vocals from Hinds ! Is there any other song proshot from Pinkpop ?
th-cam.com/video/yR7icis_13M/w-d-xo.html
Owesome!! 👌😀
So intense!
Lovely
God damn 😭😍😍😍😍😍🤘🏾 I felt that 🤗
First song from them I ever heard on radio
If I pay for a ticket to see a show. I can do what I damn well please(within reason of course) I'm the type of guy to sit there and listen to the music. I don't head bang I don't dance I pay to listen and see a live performance. For people to be angry I'm not thrashing around is stupid.
5:16 ... when the edibles hit way harder than expected
I was gonna say, the dude at 5:20 has been there since 4:20
what a fucking song
Man thats a crazy smart song.
Fantastico daccordo anch'io Song l'epica GREAT
Um boa banda pra tocar no rock in rio
FUCK JUST SAW AN HOUR AGO ON THE BUS THEYRE COMIN DOWN HERE TO PLAY IN AUGUST! FUCKIN CANT WAIT
Was it a good concert?
anybody notice Wayne Static at 3:57?
Yeah😓😓
Ryan Palmer R.I.P.
WOW!!!
I feel so sorry for the guy sleeping while this masterpiece is playing......shame on you kid.
great performs
Oh wow. I didn't know their singer played bass. Learn something new every day on TH-cam.
Folks complaining about the sleeping guy. You clearly didn't hear the news story, that guy is dead. Brent looked him directly in the eyes during the solo and he was killed instantly.
Great band, great song, rock n roll won’t die fuck!
Vocals are kinda low..
recording problems probably
+Matheus Salabert Mixing problem... the sound tech is a moron... who knows if they got to do a sound check or not but if they did, the mixer guy is useless
Sound tech and mixers cant make a live performance sound like shit, yet in most cases it isnt the actual bands fault.
I was fucking there!
4:08 omg that guy 🔥
5:17 Oblivion
"5.17..... The guy lying is now lost in oblivion"
Man what is up with Brent's mic man, this song is so cool
Wayne Static @ 3:58?
R.I.P.
Aaron Walker Rest In Jizz
Holy shit! You’re right!
Damn that's him. He died 5 months after this show.
10:30 in the morning this was.
that bass is really cranked, wowza
I only watch this performance for this guy at 5:03, which I affectionately nicknamed Steve Pizza
2:06 Fuck yeah there might be hope for future generations after all 🤘🤘
The fucking speed on the verse is insane.
It's extremely hard to sing this song live, but they did a great job!
when a metronome wants to practice it uses a brann
