@@slipknotmfkr3 ok, fast handed, skilled, good feel, and based on rudiments. I guess that's what it takes to be a great drummer, is it not? What does he lacks on? Creativity? Virtuosity? I don't think Mastodon is about virtuosity tho
Ir0nF1st924 bill backs up both troy and brents screams live its fucking awesome!! but ive only witnessed it on videos there are some amateur videos that catch him screaming his lungs out or at least it sounds like that behind troyd vocals sometimes because ive noticed troy sound deeper than scott in some performances.. this one is an example in the last chorus
It is good that they recognize it, and now a large majority. I've really loved Bill since I started listening to Mastodon... Sorry for my broken english hehe.
Bill needs to sing more often but he doesn't want. He just likes playing guitar. He has a guttural texture to his voice. That's his you hear in the background.
This is why mastodon is my favourite band. Their studio stuff is some of the best ever, but the pure power of seeing them live is what makes them great for me.
I'm still kinda surprised Mastodon hasn't really broken out and had a super huge more mainstream outing. You know, like Metallica's Black album sorta thing. Yes they're big amongst us metalheads, but they seem to be just that little bit too heavy for the general public, their loss our secret!! Such phenomenal song writing and musicianship and incredible live!
I don't understand how people can say Mastodon has poor stage presence live. Like sure, they may not say much between songs, but when Troy is belting out vocals the way he is at 2:30 I don't see how it's possible to not go fucking insane in that pit.
When i saw them on the tallica/slayer tour they were greatly underwhelming. Both in sound, energy and performance. Theyre the band i enjoy the most on record of all the performances, but by far outshined in concert
What's so special about changing guitars within seconds? Stagehand is right next to him between songs, Brent hands him the guitar he's playing and is given the next one right to play, then the tech hits the button to switch from the first guitar's wireless system to the other's, takes 5 seconds. It's just not on camera.
Damn that live... i wish i was there... Brann is just epic, Troy is doing best vocals than studio version and oh my god, Bill is just beast in vocals ! O_O And Brent is always the same. Love that band.
Whoa, this might just be the best live performance of Blood and Thunder ive come across so far. Awesome Troys vocals are spot on, especially 2:30 - 3:15
These guys are spot-on pucking live...... There ain't much better and probably never will be!!! the most under-appreciated band in the world Mastodon phuckin Rocks!!!!!!!
Love Mastodon, and this song. Saw last year and was amazing, and openers where crazy. Went with two friends that told me were making some songs..I thought it was something just to have fun, but a few days ago they shown me their first four songs and I freaked out. Couldn't believe they were the same . They are called Red Can and you should check them. They have that thing.
god bless. i wanted to hear a song where everyone hit everything hard. from the strings to the drums to the metal symbol doodads. this song was the refreshing punch to the face that my soul wanted.
When Troy yells "harpoons thrust in the sky", he makes my harpoon thrust in the sky.
John Smith Haha what the fuck
are you a whale hunter?
John Smith Read this right after i saw it lmao. Fucking brutal
Wail Hunter
For real man, that part was straight filth
This is the best blood and thunder live performance by far
But they sped up as soon as they got to the the chorus.
Bad form if you ask me.
i mainly meant the vocals
i also don't hear this speed up you speak of
It's there bro. tap in 4/4 from the start and then wait for the first chorus. Love this song though, fucking classic
CassiusFA At least they all stayed in time with each other.
That's one insane drummer right there.
Tim Harrison Brann's drumming makes me nut
Give this man some more toms
Meh, he could stand to do a drum roll once and a while.
SnipeYouFromMars honestly he’s not that great. just a fast hands drummer with good dynamics, and rudimentary skills. besides that he’s pretty standard
@@slipknotmfkr3 ok, fast handed, skilled, good feel, and based on rudiments. I guess that's what it takes to be a great drummer, is it not? What does he lacks on? Creativity? Virtuosity? I don't think Mastodon is about virtuosity tho
0:28 "Hmmm, quite decent riffage, deserves a modest head bang."
I love how Brann dresses to a massive gig in front of thousands the same way that I dress to school.
EvilLadderGaming gotta be comfortable
Well, he's the drummer, you're really not gonna be seeing what he's wearing so it doesn't really matter 🤣
Holy shit, Bill should sing more, his roar is fucking brutal.
I've been sayin' it for ten damn years!
Ir0nF1st924 bill backs up both troy and brents screams live its fucking awesome!! but ive only witnessed it on videos there are some amateur videos that catch him screaming his lungs out or at least it sounds like that behind troyd vocals sometimes because ive noticed troy sound deeper than scott in some performances.. this one is an example in the last chorus

I've really loved Bill since I started listening to Mastodon... Sorry for my broken english hehe.
He makes a kick ass guttural singer. He should do it more often.
Roaring is singing???Hmmmm
2:32 Troy sings like he has all the legions of hell behind him here. One of the best performances of any metal singer live I've ever seen.
2:57
HOLY SHIT TROY
tell me about it!!! holy fuck man
BeeAreWhyAyeEn This is the best vocal performance for Blood and Thunder imo
Brandon Griffin That scream is blood curdling
Brandon Griffin Out fucking standing!!
Brandon Griffin That scream gave me full body chills, wow!
i want that guys vocal chords
it sounds like an army of dead people is singing with him
or maybe it's the crowd singing with them
Dustwalker Brent’s are even more badass
UndeadKennedy dude... bill
Bleach Dark Bill’s great but Brent is my favorite
I can't stop fkn watching this...help...
Dude fucking troy destroyed this. What a massive set of lungs
You could say he split his lungs with blood and thunder.
I know, usually Mastodon's vocals are hit and miss live, but Troy just sounds fucking fantastic here.
Troy in my opinion almost always sounds good live
Michael Poirier Him and brann are are the most consistently good live imo
Joseph Bastidas underhanded diss at Brent 😂
Bill's sweet guitar tone is this band's secret, it's perfect
Brent chicken pickin' too. Capalarian Crest would not be the bad as song it is without that sweet solo.
Bill needs to sing more often but he doesn't want. He just likes playing guitar. He has a guttural texture to his voice. That's his you hear in the background.
It's great but I give it to the leads voice
downtunings and the guttural voice
@@dylanwillis1473 Capalliarian is absolute chicken picken insanity
Probably the best performance of Blood and Thunder I've seen. That opening riff never gets old man.
This is why mastodon is my favourite band. Their studio stuff is some of the best ever, but the pure power of seeing them live is what makes them great for me.
Bills vocals... I'm blown
Heinz Blassen dude, watch the Rock in Rio performance of this song! You can hear him better there ;p
Lol there secret weapon
I'm still kinda surprised Mastodon hasn't really broken out and had a super huge more mainstream outing. You know, like Metallica's Black album sorta thing. Yes they're big amongst us metalheads, but they seem to be just that little bit too heavy for the general public, their loss our secret!! Such phenomenal song writing and musicianship and incredible live!
To get mainstream, you must go after it. I don't think they want that kind of attention... At least not at first glance.
Yea, I'm fine with it. And I have a good feeling they are too
blood mountain sort of is their black album
To me it just doesn't sound good. So I'm not surprised. Friends love it tho.
@DanielBx mastodon got worse after leviathan in my opinion
“Harpoon trusts in the sky” makes me scream the hell out of me ! So powerful and heavy
I don't understand how people can say Mastodon has poor stage presence live. Like sure, they may not say much between songs, but when Troy is belting out vocals the way he is at 2:30 I don't see how it's possible to not go fucking insane in that pit.
+jake hays Absolutely my friend!! I know I would be going crazy if I was there!!
Man some of Troy's facial expression are worth seeing the band live with ear plugs in.
Troy If fucking scary too! You Wouldnt realise but that man is quite huge aswell...
I saw them with etid opening. I love both bands, but etid fuckin brings it so hard that mastodon was underwhelming in comparison
When i saw them on the tallica/slayer tour they were greatly underwhelming. Both in sound, energy and performance. Theyre the band i enjoy the most on record of all the performances, but by far outshined in concert
BRANN IS JUST.....JUST....I GIVE UP. BEST STICK MAN OF THE LAST TEN YEARS. SICK FILLS.
2:05 Bill can literally just walk to the front of the stage with his guitar and still be the most powerful and intimidating being on the planet
1:10 backstage staff rocking
Beyond限界 who wouldn’t be
2:56 Fuck yes! That was awesome.
dude Brann Dailor is such a beast in the drums
2:21 - that's V-Man, bass player in Slipknot, he was Mastodon's tech for a couple of years
No shit, that's fucking rad, never knew that, thank you for the cool little fact 🤘
The answer I didn't know I wanted, but happy to find. Thanks! He stood out and I was wondering who he was or belonged to
HARPOOOOONS THRUST IN THE SKKKKKKKKYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
AMAZING vocals
That moment when somehow, off-camera, Brent had a 3 second guitar switch-out mid concert. 3:56
i think its cut, nobody is that fast
Not to mention Troy's switch from his silverburst P bass (with a bridge humbucker) to a black jazz with a cream/brown pickguard.
Arthur Campbell IV Its the end of the concert cut from a song called "the bit" look it up someone has cam footage of it.
Not just brent but also troy
@@dylanwillis1473 thank you for pointing that out,I am now in love with the bit
The camera work is golden. those close ups are insanely good
i come to see this every once in a while and i always get chills out of different little things happening there, fucking powerul stuff indeed
Troy is one of the best metal vocalists of all time. Absolutely perfect.
I never imagined that mastodon had such a crushing live tone, that's just sick
HARPOONS THRUST IN THE SKYYY!
Troy motherfuckin' Sanders !!!
i am coming back to this video every once in a while it gives me chills all the time, what a performance!
We meet again 240p, my old friend.
0:29 let me just move over here a bit so I ca--HHNNHGEGIGFUCK
This made me laugh so hard for some reason. Good shit.
😂😂😂
I can't stop laughing 🤣
one of the best parts of this song 1:48
I agree with Roel, this the best version of Blood and Thunder I've ever heard. When I turn people on to Mastodon, I start with this.
Hate to be this guy but
Interviwer: who's the lead singer?
Mastadon: yes
Absolute best live performance by this band.
The Kpit performance with Scott Kelly is just as a good. Those 2 are king for me tho. The adult swim performance is awesome too.
You're not prog unless you can change an SG to a V in under a minute

@@kyurox603 it's a cut
@@kyurox603 wow such expert! Much knowing!
I don't even know meaning of those words 😅
Lol yeah That was some mystical shit
Best Live Performance for this song.
this is such a ridiculously good performance.
Fuuuuuuuuuuuuck! This is the best live version I've heard of them.
Mike Inscho
you should see them in person. The videos don't do them justice
I saw them when they toured with Clutch, and Graveyard a few years ago. It was alright.
Sooooooo good.These lads blow my mind.
This song is so good it makes me value music as a whole more.
The breakdown @1:50 is hands down one of the most insane/intense moments in history \m/
its so cool, everyone sings and there is no grudges. pure brotherhood. we take equal share of pain and gain.
The metal Beatles.
Damn that live... i wish i was there... Brann is just epic, Troy is doing best vocals than studio version and oh my god, Bill is just beast in vocals ! O_O
And Brent is always the same. Love that band.
that marshall/ Les Paul crunch at the beginning is awesome
When a live performance is so good and your entire body just goes FHUUUUUUUUUUUUUCKKKKKKKKKKK *breaks keyboard from pressing K too hard*
You should have said:
"breas eyboard for pressing '' to hard
@@xSTONYTARKx I should have, yeah.
at 4:04 Brent suddently has a different guitar in his hands. what the hell lol
its truee!!! jajajajaja
Troy sounds like an absolute beast here!
Troy is too damn good.
何回聴いてもかっこいい
Jesus christ Bill those live vocals are fucking insane man
Shame he doesn’t like singing, his live vocals on this/fire ants/mother puncher are fuckin glorious
They mesmerizing live.
Best stage-fast-replacement-guitar-man in the world? of kudos to the editor.
DO NOT CRINKLE YOUR FOOD WRAPPERS LOUDLY!!!
TAKE THE SEED OUTSIDE!!
RUN IT OVER AFTER THE SHOW
That's V Man guitar tech in background at 2:21!
+SethHesio ye! One second he was the gibson 4:00 the other second the V 4:04!! WTF?!?!? (not the tech)
I think they edited out a chunk there!
+SethHesio or hes probably just too badass
love this tune. it never lets up, but never gets boring. quality.
The drummer rocked out.
Temazo. Saludos desde Atacama, Chile 🇨🇱
I wonder if Troy will ever release a book of his crowd photos?
Man MASTODON are The gods of metal! Love them till death!
Troys vocals are insane here! Good sound quality!
one of the feel good mixes of their live performances
God DAMN these boys get DOWN! love this band.
I just got into Mastodon lately. I'm so glad I gave these guys a listen!
Hands down top 10 performances ive ever seen from the all mighty mastodon
This song is one that the more you listen to it the more it sticks with you. WHITE WHALE / HOLY GRAIL
Bill and Brent’s dual screams are something else entirely.
I really wanna see more of Bill's vocals live. He sounds way wicked.
These guys are some of the best
Outstanding performance.
Whoa, this might just be the best live performance of Blood and Thunder ive come across so far. Awesome
Troys vocals are spot on, especially 2:30 - 3:15
What a performance! Wow!
This is what I want Mastodon to sound like all the time
This is the best this song has ever been played. Hands down
Gawd damn, I wish I was there, absolutely brutal live performance!!
AMAZING song and band.
Their best live i've for sure
i like how the guitar magically changes at the end.
What an exceptional performance.
Another amazing performance of this song, brutal power on stage!
Great band !
He makes drumming look effortless
Tremendo subidon, que suerte tienen los que estan ahi
These guys are spot-on pucking live...... There ain't much better and probably never will be!!! the most under-appreciated band in the world Mastodon phuckin Rocks!!!!!!!
This is one of the best videos of all time
best song of NFS most wanted :D

Troys vocals here actually WRECK the album version of this one
breathtaking
Gahh the goosebumps...They won't go away!
Goosebumps 🙌✨ damn !! Like how can someone write those giant riffs !!
Easily the best performance of this song on all of UA-cam.
Holy fuck ! Bill on those backing vocals sounds insane ! Hos growl is so much deeper than brents !
Metal 🤘 👿
Amazing performance!
So much talent
god bless. i wanted to hear a song where everyone hit everything hard. from the strings to the drums to the metal symbol doodads. this song was the refreshing punch to the face that my soul wanted.
