@@dojo4712 trust me, they are!
@SeanTenney777 Hope you're right on the new content- then we get more Contortionist covers from you too!
The Contortionist is, in my opinion, the only one true Progressive Metalcore band that built the foundation for bands today. Absolutely love to see you all still making and playing music.

Based
You the man!!!!!
That intro single-handedly explains why these guys are magical
Couldn't agree more. Even a small piece to introduce the set sounds absolutely amazing.
No doubt... refreshing
I've repeatedly rewound it so much, that I'm probably 2,000 listens lol
God, I love this band so much.. really hoping for something new soon
Long live The Contortionist
Long Live The Contortionist
Amen to that, brother!!!
Always ^ ^
I'm 41. Not too old, but been around to experience a lot of music. TC is easily in my top 5 favorites of all time. There's no reason for them not to be. Bless these men that bring us this music. The world needs it. And I hate how grossly unpopular it is.
Exactly *
Im 40 and i totally agree with you
I’m 40 and listen to an absurd amount of music and I consider them the best band in the world right now, taken in totality. The more ‘listenable’ they continue to become while retaining all of the subtleties that make them who they are, the better off humanity is
It's criminal.
Whats ur another 4 favorite bands? 🎉

18:47 - 21:28 is just absolutely breathtaking...
Everytime I hear it my body melts. Glad someone pointed this out because it's honestly ridiculous how insane it is.
givin me chills to dis DAY
Incredible
Absolutely one of the best things ever written and performed in music.
I think if I had an hour left to live I would choose to spend it listening to the contortionist, and this song would 100% be on the list
I recently saw Tesseract playing live and I thought it would be incredible a tour from both bands together
They did in 2014....it was F'ING AMAZING
Literally the best progressive metal band today, looking forward to the new stuff! 🙏
Patiently waiting for new music. I hope you guys are doing well 😊
Flourish into 1979 was the best thing happend in history
Bet
Exactly this.
Ok fine.. I'll listen to the entire TC catalog front to back again
Come to Brasil! 🙌
I’ll never get over the synth that starts at 44:33. Absolutely haunting. Gives me goosebumps every time.
man, the final part of Geocentric Confusion always gets me. it's so damn good. ♥
welcome back, The Contortionist. we all missed you!
I know you, you're scared to be on your own. I'll always be there for you. For you....
I seriously have listened to this for 30 days straight at least once a day sometimes more than once!! How are Cam and Robby not included in great guitar duos is BEYOND me!!! Such pure perfection in this band!!! If I can ask for one tour, please tour with Karnivool from Australia and my life will be complete!!!!
Holy crap yeah if they toured with Karnivool I would poop everywhere
Damnnnnnn, Geocentric from 19:18 - 21:35 just takes me to musical bliss every damn time since its release
most beautiful piece of music ever composed imo
@ absolutely 💯
I play that on repeat so much. Absolutely ridiculous how good that part is
This whole set gave me goosebumps!! I love this band so muchh!
Everytime I listen to this band its like someone hit my reset button. I will travel to see their next tour.
i have been patiently waiting for new music from them. so this'll do
The Contortionist,one more reason to live 🙏🏻❤️
❤
Absolutely honored to say this band is from the city I live in ❤ Indianapolis
Immaculate **chef's kiss**
Esta banda me ayudó a sobrellevar un periodo terrible de mi vida. Los quiero mucho The Contortionist, son muy importantes para mi:')
I will forever scream from the mountaintops that The Contortionist are the best prog band in the world. They just have the magic.
Amazing music to rock out to during this Great Awakening process.
Contortionist = truly blessed.
Jesus is Lord
the thrive into solipsis transition was my favorite live-moment ever when o saw that a few years ago. i like how this has become a thing even nowadays.
Masters of their arts, contortion between heavy and mellow music is so good and all the ethereal sounds just completes the spectrum
I hope and pray these guys are doing well . They are very special .
Thanks for sharing this! It's amazing. 24:15 - 26:45 is always my favorite part
This band. This sonic experience. Incredible.
this is the only good thing that happened to me today, and it's more than enough to make it not a bad day. your music is so powerful.
Thank you for blessing us with the footage. I love to SEE you guys play just as much as I love to HEAR it. Can’t wait for you guys to return. Nothing but blessings towards all of you ❤
Greatest gift ever, I love you guys
I don't know how to explain how much I love this.
the greatest to ever do it, hands down.
Please....please...make new music. You guys are my favorite band and some of the most talented musicians on the planet. But this is great. Thank you for posting this
Pure magic.
Was having an ultra shitty day and wanting to throw in the towel today, and it popped up in my recommended. Sad it took 3 days to do so, but it's almost like the universe knew i'd need it right now.
Thank you Contortionist. Can't wait to see what ya'll have been cooking. Know things have been rough for ya'll in life lately, hang in there broskis.
Remember watching the set with my mate around 4 AM outside after hanging out (Europe moment) and losing our shit at how good you guys sounded!
Super happy seeing all three sets get uploaded here, baller move. Alongside Kendrick's sudden album drop as well haha!
this mix sounds so good, especially guitars levels and gain, so balanced
I fucking love this band
imagine sounding this good
When you've had a really rough day and you are blessed with this... thank you so much guys ❤
Dear god, Solipsis... I've heard it so many times but this..I wasn't ready. Unbelievable.
Bro I remember to this day getting absolutely rocked the first time I heard it, one of the best musical experiences of my life hearing Intrinsic for the first time
Just discovered these guys a month ago or so. Am absolutely blown away. Almost in tears watching this. So awesome haha
Best band in the world. Objective fact. Simple
What Eric does at the end of Thrive here, it is sending me. Didn’t think it was possible for that song to get any better
I miss you so much guys!
Loved seeing the Ibanez's and Helix. Cleans and grows are incredible live, blown away. I normally prefer the records, but this live performance rocks.
This is a ridiculously high standard for live set recordings, I'm so in love with all the small changes in these live versions as well! Hope to see you guys live in Belgium again someday!
cant wait to hear something new from you guys
we are blessed to have you in our timeline!
I’m a guy who would really love to see TC live again.
Bucket list deal for me... Exoplanet changed it all for me.
The end to Language is amazing, spine-tingling.
This is a dream. Thank you guys.
Them doing the opposite pinch harmonics at the start of language 2 is so fucking sick
47:29 I feel healed now. I fuggin love you guys.
Come on guys, it's been so long, you have to come back!
@43:25 is still one of my most favorite sections of any prog song
I love y'all, I'm new to the band and I can't wait for new stuff
1979 sang by Mike hits different. Makes me cry every single time.
Yes! My favorite band. 🤘
Speechless
geocentric confusion always makes me cry like a baby. i love this band so much. no comparison.
absolutely amazing. can't wait for new releases...
Man I need a new album from you guys!
Glad to finally be able to rewatch this.
Stellar Performance Gentlemen
Lol, this is not what I wanted to do today, but I cannot stop watching
Just listened to my 2024 Apple Music replay, I made your top 500 listeners in 2024. Hope you all have a happy holiday! Cannot wait for the new album….
this goes so hard
This is putting a big smile on my face. Thank you so much! ❤
I don't even own a vinyl player, but I think I'll order this box set and ask for a player this Christmas! This is absolutely fantastic and I hope you guys release new material soon!
Yes!! I have the Vinyl set all on display that I just put up! Thank you guys for this… hope you and your families are all doing well.
You all are so tight live. this is some excellent work!
Oh my God!!! Greetings from Asia! Kazakhstan! We love you very much!! I'm actually a big fan.)) I was very worried that there was no news!! You're finally back!!!
This was LIVE?! Sheeeeeeesh...
Finally, it's been a while mate.
I can't believe it! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!! ❤❤❤
It still blows my mind what y’all have evolved into….I’m more of a tech-death kinda dude, but these songs are so fuckin’ interesting….they’re just haunting
Begin, cooking in the kitchen
Restock, our utensils
All natural ingredients
Turn on the stove and add in the sauce
It's integral
We will be the salvation, of flavour
God damn goosebumps 🤘 45:40
So happy to see this 🤘🤘
YESSSS, I MISSED IT SO MUCH!!! Thank you guys, sincerly! Much love from Brazil.
I keep coming back to this set because the intro is the most spiritual thing i've ever experienced.
thanks for uploading it!
Super stoked to see the vids for these are finally getting uploaded officially; not being able to watch these was so sad. Y'all are forever GOATS in the prog scene, and metal scene at large. I hope for many more years of The Contortionist, and here's to whatever new stuff you guys put out!
Great songs, great mix, great performance! Happy to see you guys pop up again - been following you since Exoplanet!
I'm so happy they still play Integration, it's literally my favorite song by them!
This box set, i am finding myself listening to it from beginning to end like everyday and this band is amazing just get stuck in your brain in a very good way! Feeling it everytime!
I've seen The Contortionist perform 3-4 times in Indianapolis. I've spent some time getting to know them before and after shows. They are all great people.
I've been looking for this set for 3+ years. Thank you guys so much for posting it!
I can't wait to have this on repeat for the next few months again. This is pretty fucking special. I'm a long time fan and I really hope these guys come back. Would love to golf with you dudes if you're into it.
Damn... you guys sound amazing! I'm so excited!!! ❤🔥
How is this the first time I'm hearing of this?!?!?!?!
Would love to own this on dvd/blu-ray.
Seconded!
Oh I can’t wait to binge watch these tonight ‼️🖤
The way they do Thive live should have been the way it was on the album, damn that gap is insanely enhancing.
