One, if not the best in the genre of psychedelic progressive stoner doom. Their evolution is unmatched. Even though sometimes I miss the swagger and stomp of the earlier albums, they are undeniably one of the best bands in recent memory to emerge. All hail The Elder!
This is my second comment, one of the best things about Elder is that all the musicians shine. It's easy to focus on Nick DeSalvo and give him all the accolades, but really the bass and drums are equally impressive. The way they write their songs allows for everyone to shine. I think that is why so many love TOOL. They make great songs andt all the musicians are incredible. There are so many "meh" bands that replicate other bands, Elder certainly has their own sound and composition style. Elder is easily in my top 5 bands that I love to listen to and never get sick of listening to.
This band is stupid good. I mean they really deserve to be mentioned with some of the best. They can hang with the best If it were 1979 or 1992 when rock was the music of the masses they would be all over the radio. This is really a great band.
There are so many bands nowadays that fit this description - but they aren't known by many, because of the music industry's commercialization of art. The silver lining is that you can see really great bands up close for maybe $10. (Or free, if you're also playing.)
Elder man... starting as pure stoner doom then slowly but surely going to progressive rock. Every album feels slightly different than the previous one yet are similar enough that you can tell it's the same band. Though between the debut album and Omens, the difference is, how do I put it.... it feels like another band. That's how much this band has changed over the years. So fucking hyped for Innate Passage this 25th of november
I know they grew as musicians, but I really love the first album and was happy to find this today. The Dead Roots Stirring stuff sounds great too. I think this is the only live performance I can remember that sounded SLOWER than the album.
Yes, The End is noticeably slower here. They’ve gotten a lot better live over the years, they are still pretty raw here. I saw them in 2018 and they were tight, and Nick’s vocals were pretty decent.
Good times at the American legion ...
A lot of memories and joints smoked to this video. Dead Root Stirring is still a phenomenal album. Great band.
From the intro to the show I thought this was a video of the group “Older”

I love their modern day sound, but god damn, the Sleep worship years were good.

Elder and TOOL are my two favourite bands of all time. And Elder is supporting TOOL in January/February. The boys have made it
I couldn’t agree more! Their playing in unison is really impressive and that drummer is an absolute UNIT.

Filmed during the recording sessions for DRS, IIRC.
The temperature should be freezing, Matt wears a shirt !

Pussy Whip was the best sounding song here
Pussy whip, huh.
Nick doesn't age.

Savage setlist! 0.00 Fury Whip 7.40 Waste of Tiamat 14.09 Death is this Communion 23.55 Turk 29.48 Rumours of War 32.49 Dii
Someone once described matts solos as a tangled mess of notes. Cant help but agree every time i hear one. Its really unique, i dig it.
This is why I bought a soldano and a laney.
FURRY WHUP!
yup, Matt, occasionally wore wife beaters, and Jeff did not always have a beard. Now you kids know how scary life can be.
Can any one please post a set list?
this is heavy !! although Matt Pike with any kind of shirt on is funny still I saw this tour in Miami 4 songs close to 1.5 hours
Ryan gosling?
Wholy shit I love the energy
Fantástic live
oh yeah but instead of a ouble headed axe he wields a 8 string-axe instead
rias's slave First Act 9 string, the bottom 4 strings are doubled up,
Matt Pike is like some long haunted Goth(race)about to go to war with Odin servants(Vikings) or Variangs master slicers
Matt... Is this a shirt?
08:20 god I love when they jam like that.

That was probably the best 36 minutes of my life, other than actually seeing the almighty High On Fire in person.
666
T-shirt . . .. WTF ???!!!!
MATT FUCKING PIKE!
