This dude might be the most insane musician of all time, like realistically bruh I understand the vocals and I could see how you could get that good at vocals, but this fking guy will also have the sickest riffs simultaneously, I like hearing him like this though. I didn’t know he was in any bands besides Opeth until this morning
Don't underestimate the bass and it's grit, too. This is one of those spots where the bass and guitars are meshing perfectly and it sounds fucking monstrous.
They did that on purpose. The reason they formed Bloodbath was to make a pure death metal band. As brutal as possible in terms of both audio sound and lyrical content.
I love the melodic undertones the band just randomly throws in. The melodic solos seem to flow well with the music since the tone doesn't come out floaty and happy sounding.
So let me understand, Mikael Äkerfeldt, lead singer and guitarist for Opeth, and Jonas Renske, lead singer for Katatonia, both playing Brutal Death Metal on the same stage? My life is finally complete
Check out Dan Swano's work too if you haven't, (Crimson by Edge of Sanity is a masterpiece). He's not in this video but he has played guitar and drums for Bloodbath before.
He got it right (Meiwes really did cut the other guy's dick off and cooked it. Legend says he couldn't eat it so he fed it to his dog). Not only that, but he also described it as a song about "food, Satan and national disasters"... It's pretty obvious he was joking (and half of Mikael's stage banter is sarcasm, jokes or stealth insults to the crowd)
@@amalibenton Armin Meiwes (born 1 December 1961) is a German man who is known for an act of cannibalism. In March 2001, Meiwes, a then 41-year-old bisexual computer technician, placed an advertisement online for a well-built male he could kill and eat. Forty-three year old Bernd-Jurgen Brandes answered the ad later that month.
lol when heard them i was laughing... that dude sounds way better than the singer :P unfortunately i would love to see Peter Tagtgren doing the vocals live on it... (he's a monster anyway) :P
As he explains it there is nothing wrong with his voice, he just changed to monitors in his ears rather than ear plugs causing him to strain his voice causing the change in his vocals. He has since changed back, and from what I've seen in more recent videos everything is back to it's normal brutal state. Too bad he recorded two dvds like that though, it doesn't properly represent his talent.
@@jaimuzyka3177 I'd say my fav are on Breeding death and on Fathomless as well as on this live album. I really enjoy this live album because the vocals although not that harsh anymore, really sound like old school death metal vocals.
How did Mikael's voice change so drastically between Bloodbath's 2005 performance at Wacken and this? In only five years he went from perfect to unbearably terrible..
+AotearoaMetalhead Well with more focus on Opeth he probably hasn't growled in ages. No growling for about two weeks usually makes you lose the ability.
this was around the time when he stated that he had damaged his throat do to wearing those ear monitors, apparently after wearing them to much he couldn't actually hear his screaming and it made him scream in a way he never did, so basically he wasn't using his typical techniques to scream
@neroMetallica Pero es que hermano, en wacken podemos ver a Bloodbath en su maximo esplendor, todos cubiertos de sangre, Mikael en su mejor momento como cantante de Death Metal, y lo mas importante, cuenta con la presencia del todopoderoso Dan Swano, todo lo cual hace del concierto de Wacken toda una joya, talvez resuba la version que tengo en alta definicion, porque tienes razon, esta un poco bajo de calidad. Saludos y suerte.
He also quit Bloodbath, so hmmmm... He won't admit it, but his heavy vocals are done basically..I mean the gutturals suck now, he has to raise high like in a screaming way to sound decent. BRING BACK PETER TAGTGREN!
I like how this comment began as a nice explanation on how to like this music and you had me for a moment. Insulting another to get your way is a very immature tactic. I even complimented the band it's mostly the lyrics. I hate bands that just use gross out lyrics and are vulgar just to be vulgar
Hey me, 3 years later. I figured out the secret to their tone. One of the keys, to those who know and seek, look into the Heavy Metal pedal. (Yes, I am serious, NOT METAL ZONE, Boss Heavy Metal)
omg. there is a technical problem mi mikael. listen to 2005 Wacken show and hear the diffrent sound... That´s why opeth birng us the amazing album `Heritage´
@@hugolessard4462 The first time they did a live performance was also supposed to be the last (and it was a last time in a way. It was the last time they played with Dan Swano). It was the Wacken 2005 show, and Akerfeldt was again in lead vocals. So, unfortunately, Tagtgren left before they started doing live shows.
We all have seen that interview, and it is obvious that it was not a technical problem, because two years later he started to lose his growls, he is still growling that bad, so its definitely not a technical problem, I think its the cigarette abuse or something.

Sic em…
that fucking guitar tone. holy shit. are they playing chainsaws? brutal/10
Drop A tuning and mega distortion pedals, like what CKY uses.
Yeah their tone is sickening. It sounds amazing when they do it, but I'd feel like I was doing something wrong if my rig sounded like that.
Wow, that's a surprisingly specific and useful comment.
Don't underestimate the bass and it's grit, too. This is one of those spots where the bass and guitars are meshing perfectly and it sounds fucking monstrous.
Max out everything on a HM2.
i fucking love Mikael. “how about a song about food” 😂
eat = food
It's so weird to see Mikael without a guitar on stage.
Fuck yes🤔🤔
love the username my man
Was about to say the same thing
to me it’s weird to see him with one lol
I bet he felt the same way
They actually have a really unique tone, such a rare thing nowadays...
FUZZ
@@mattinwinkymg there aint no fuzz pedal in this rig??
@@mattinwinkymg pretty sure its boss HM-2
@@mattinwinkymg HM-2
Not unique at all. That’s classic Swedish death metal tone. All thanks to the Boss HM-2. Great music though!
that backing vocal...
Love the vocals, the lyrics are still so clear through Mikaels brutal growls.

@@Ethan9371 nice to see you here
So let me understand, Mikael Äkerfeldt, lead singer and guitarist for Opeth, and Jonas Renske, lead singer for Katatonia, both playing Brutal Death Metal on the same stage?
My life is finally complete
Bloodbath is a supergroup, only consisting of already successful musicians from lots of different bands
Check out Dan Swano's work too if you haven't, (Crimson by Edge of Sanity is a masterpiece). He's not in this video but he has played guitar and drums for Bloodbath before.
@@arumyn3070Dan Swano is one of the GOAT death metal musicians
You found that out just now?
I love that this is in the category of education :D
Hahahaha xD
All music lessons should include this. :)
That guitar tone is brutal!
He got the story wrong, 1 cannibal German guy was looking for a volunteer to be eaten trough the internet. Like the song Mein teil from Rammstein
He got it right (Meiwes really did cut the other guy's dick off and cooked it. Legend says he couldn't eat it so he fed it to his dog). Not only that, but he also described it as a song about "food, Satan and national disasters"... It's pretty obvious he was joking (and half of Mikael's stage banter is sarcasm, jokes or stealth insults to the crowd)
branlopgar why insult the crowd?
This is not my real name why not? Lmao it’s funny as hell when he nails it. Which is most of the time
Dammit man was it a true Story?

Dat Back Up Vocals EATEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAN
lol when heard them i was laughing... that dude sounds way better than the singer :P unfortunately i would love to see Peter Tagtgren doing the vocals live on it... (he's a monster anyway) :P
What you are hearing is the allmighty Dan Swanö!
This song is amazing.. Natural disasters, Satan and Food. Best combination ever obviously
the vocals are fucking sick get real you noobs saying that hes shot now
the guy on background vocals is Patrick Star if he took up death metal
U dumb or something, that's the guitarist of Katatonia...
@@Mixxx98 Lol, do you even get the joke? You sound like a dumb here.
lol no, he is Anders Nystrom
I can't unhear it😭😭😭
Bloodbath is so far my favourite Death metal band !
I just on opeth but now im been check this out cause Mikael on it
I actually love the vocals. they're different but still good. Saw him with opeth a few weeks ago and he still sounded brutal
It's sort of a good version of modern day Chris Barnes lmao
@@MoRaby If Chris Barnes voice was fcked but not as badly as it is nowadays
I actually like his vocals. Obviously different to his past vocal style, but still tolerable. c:
Even though Mikaels growling is terrible compared to his early days with Opeth, he can still sound really brutal \m/
Still just as brutal and evil as the day it came out, Bloodbath forever!

He has since changed back, and from what I've seen in more recent videos everything is back to it's normal brutal state. Too bad he recorded two dvds like that though, it doesn't properly represent his talent.
Still better than most singers of the genre.
he's the greatest
Yeah these guys in my opinion are the best in this style of music.
Mikael's in full rock star mode here.
Massive Bass Tone 🤘🤘
Is he talking about the same story from Rammstein's Meil Teil or is it a normal thing in Germany to find adds for cannibals on the paper?
Yes
Both
Ja
Still listening to this after all those years. Today to prelude the weekend 🍺🤘
What a touching and moving story. I will cherish this deep in my heart
Beautiful song ❤️
Per Eriksson the dude
Holy fuck, Per threw his guitar across the stage to the tech guy at the end, madlad
Per is badass
the best vocal part was the ending when he said eaaateeeeennn
I had no idea Dan Swano wrote the lyrics. Wow
good god the sound is excellent
Is that Per Eriksson from Ghost on stage?
Yes
Mikael is such a legend!!
Let's be honest, his vocals aren't as good as in 2004 but it's still pretty gud
You meant 2005
I actually prefer his later vocals. Believe it or not. I think that his vocals peaked at around 2008. That is when they were most interesting imo.
@@kacpergarbiec4174 Yeah! On Fathomless he had epic vocals! But still for me those on Resurrection are better

Great overall sound! Unusual quality of late. Great Death Metal band. ALMOST like a slow Cannibal Corpse.Great!!!
Mikael is such a great, diverse vocalist
best of the best songs EVER
He talks like an AM radio locutor...
"If you don't bang your fucking head, you are just like Brett Michaels" LMFAO. Akerfeldt should seriously consider doing stand up comedy.
Varg on the drums
Blackheim and Jonas! Woot!
Per... WHY THE HELL ARE YOU SMOKING?!
Esta banda es alucinante!!!
Rammstien did a song about that I believe
Just wtf is wrong? Am I the only one who fucking loves the vocals?
Fucking Anders Nyström growls as hell!
Mein Teil!
Morbid Angel T-shirt :D
5:01 Akerfelt growls better here than the rest if the song
Back vocals are waaaayyy better, fuckin true sound of the devil.
Ahmet Emin Erdoğan ñe
Ahmet Emin Erdoğan lol
Güzel yorum.
sen nasıl mikael abiye laf atarsın haddini bil
The final is Sick! 🤘🏻
I think I like this more than the studio one
Well, Peter Tagtgren did the vocals on the studio version, so....
amazing Voice¡¡¡
IT`S SOOOOOO HEAVY OMG
How did Mikael's voice change so drastically between Bloodbath's 2005 performance at Wacken and this? In only five years he went from perfect to unbearably terrible..
AotearoaMetalhead
I don't think he's really trying anymore ;(
+AotearoaMetalhead he got really tired + more focus on Opeth
+AotearoaMetalhead Well with more focus on Opeth he probably hasn't growled in ages. No growling for about two weeks usually makes you lose the ability.
+AotearoaMetalhead In 2008 (Party San) his growls were sounding good also.
+Gab Campbell What do you mean by back? he is not doing growls for neither bloodbath or opeth anymore
man axe is a fucking beast
Gracias por compartir ;D se sarpa en vivo Mikael Dios Akerfeldt
2022 Bloodbath still fucks
this was around the time when he stated that he had damaged his throat do to wearing those ear monitors, apparently after wearing them to much he couldn't actually hear his screaming and it made him scream in a way he never did, so basically he wasn't using his typical techniques to scream
Grungy ass guitar tone
Sounds like Satan is personally pissing on my grave in the future
In other words evil as hell 🤘🏻
Nice Music
So fucking heavy! \m/
sweden is fucking heavy
såklart\m/
I wonder how Nick is going to do with this song
Going to be brutal ;)
r3dph0n3 improve it🤘🏽
This is about, natural disasters, satan, and *food.*
*food*
I love this man......mikael
He called for headbanging in the crowd, and headbang they did.
I just found this song. I think it's cool and brutal
It is so unusual to see Jonas on bass
Heavier than a fucking battleship....
i was browsing some other tab when Akerfeldt was talking about the german guy who put out an ad. 1:50 took me totally off guard.I fell off my chair.
Who is the guy with the backing vocals
Anders Nyström from Katatonia
I did not know eaten was based on a true story.
Riffs de guitar + o vocal pure Energy 😈👐🎸👍👌🎤👏📼💀🙌🎯🎤BR
Wow, he sounds really jaded in this one, like he's not interested in putting any effort into the vox >_>

The fucking kicks sound mental
my grandma's favorite song 😇
So awesome!! \m/

I agree.
That's brutal I love it
Love the morbid angel shirt
u get up there and do what they do!
Brett Michaels hail bloodbath.
When Mikael still had balls
came for the gastronomy and had a mouthful
Is this Akerfeld?
Yep \,,/
