Mat Barlow's voice is the ONLY AND ORIGINAL VOICE OF Iced Earth. With all the respect to the other singers, no one can replace him. Schaffer's rhythm and songs are from another planet.
Ripper is def one that kicks ass. I mean honestly, I like Matt Barlow but is it a wonder why ripper is still singing great vocals in metal and Matt Barlow is nowhere to be found. Well that's because Matt Barlow always tried to do too much with his vocals and yes I'll admit it sounds great sounds cool or whatever, but he was his own worst enemy. He tries to do too many different elements and this in turn will shave many many years of peak vocals off of one's career.
as much as I love Hetfield, I do think Schaffer is the most amazing (and very underrated) rhythm guitarist out there. It's unbelievable how tight his picking has ALWAYS been through all these years. No joke: I developed a chronic wrist infection trying to play this song over and over about 5 years ago, never fully recovered.
I love this voice is absolutely fantastic. And the riffs of Iced Earth. And they play so good in lives, sounds almost like the cd s . I have seen them in Athens and I just loved them ☺☺☺ Greetings from Athens
First 30 seconds I thought Man...this aint live !! Ill be damned !!!! It sure enough is and it IS FIRE !!!!! It just sounded so damn good I couldnt believe it .
Now that Stu won’t work with Schaffer ever again because of January 6th, how amazing would it be if Barlow came back for a reunion tour. So many bands are reuniting or putting out new material after two years of no shows bc of Covid. A lot of it has to do with money, but I’m sure it was a wake up call for a lot of these musicians who saw that their passion in life could be taken away in a second. Also, Metal seems to be having a resurgence……now would be the absolute perfect time for IE to get back to business with the REAL front man
Greatest Metal tune I've ever heard. Guitars sound great to me. Not every song is going to have the greatest guitar solo ever. I think it's just right for song. Got the most catchy kick ass riff anyways I ever heard. something wicked has already come I see by allot of these comments on UA-cam \m/
OH MY FUCKİNG GOOOODD. This Can't be real, man. The studio record and full song was already awesome, but this one, this one worning me with pure energy and adrenaline! LONG LIVE METAL \m/
Barlow was flawless!!! But amazing performance by all of them. Smedley is on drums, Jon on Rythm guitar, Barlow vocals..but bass and Lead guitar? Vidales and Seele?? Am I right?
@ParadiseCityGR :D Seriously Zakk has a great voice, I didn't know he joined Iron Maiden... I was surprised when I saw this video... I'm a true metal fan.
You won't believe, but, I have Brent's sticks at home. Brent give them to my son after the show in Graz, Austria, some 15 years ago in a privat conversation.
I don't know if it is just a case but since Matt left Iced Earth has played really a few concerts at big metal events like this one here and even less as headliners... it seems the band has lost many fans with Block on the mic.
+Mike Figat No shit, That was in 1999, in their prime. even the best vocalists wear down over time... Except for Bruce Dickinson, that man has Steel Vocal Cords
no its not clean just his guitar sucks. suhr guitars are specially made for jazz and blues playing not for metal. idk why he uses suhr but that's the reason it sounds like that

Not original, not only. And Stu did a pretty good job on his records

Thet us not forget about the drummer. Hell, about anybody in the band.
Brent deadly Smedley! He admitted himself this is the most difficult song he played with Iced Earth in a live session!
I don't know why he wrote the drum tracks
Flawless performance of barlow. Jesus christ what a powerhouse...:D
His voice is a piece of art

Dawm
Agree!!
1. Jon Schaffer
2. James Hetfield
3. Dave Mustaine
@@victorherrero4790 Mustaine is better than Hetfield
and that cop sing much better
Jon is far superior to James, and i love em both, but Jons riffs, precision and tone far exceeds James. But they both rock 🤟

After all those years he still sings pretty well
Listen to Dracula from this performance; it's absolutely insane

Mat barlow definitivamente el mejor vocalista que existe para mi, grandes sus registros.
Amazing voice!! So Powerful! Wow!! :D

Do you know if Matt's voice would be able to hold up to this level? I honestly don't know much about what he does right now
@@cletuspoirier2562 Isn't he a police officer nowadays?
Fuck stu he ain't from america..he don't understand..a lot of iced earth music is written about civil war and rebel wars of the south..fuck stu..
@@cletuspoirier2562matt sings in a band called ashes of ares as with guitarist valdosa from iced earth

I think I have new favorite band!
Epic🎸🎤🖤
I don’t really care what this song is about; it’s a Metal Masterpiece.

Iced earth n Jon Schafer are soo tight. Play phenomenally live

Such an awesome performance pure musicianship.
DAT DRUMMMEEEEER OHHHHH JEZUS !!!!!!
Jon Schaffer es el mejor guitarrista ritmico del metal. Y Barlow el mejor cantante... Iced Earth un tanque del metal...

Ahahah best comment
THE TRUTH
BARLOW FOREVER NUMBER ONE
Thanks.
Go to Iced Earth's website and look at the tour dates for the summer festivals... After think about of what you have said
@ParadiseCityGR Thanks... :D
Gracias Matt \m/
Perfeito !
How could anybody dislike this video? Theres just those people that have to feel like they are special and really they are just a piece of shit
Is it just me, or is jon seriously muting the hell out of those notes...
@NautilusBand Totally agree with you word for word brother. \m/
Something wicked comes! It´s Matt! :-)
They should've focused more on Brent's drum solo at the end :( but killing song nonetheless!
Barlow was flawless!!! But amazing performance by all of them. Smedley is on drums, Jon on Rythm guitar, Barlow vocals..but bass and Lead guitar? Vidales and Seele?? Am I right?
I hate to use this over used word, but this is EPIC!
@ParadiseCityGR :D Seriously Zakk has a great voice, I didn't know he joined Iron Maiden... I was surprised when I saw this video... I'm a true metal fan.
barlow is GOD!!
ο μπινες εμφανιστηκε και εδω και εδωσε αρνητικη.ποσο θα γουσταρα πεντε λεπτα οι δυο μας μεσα σε ενα δωματιο.

"IN THE SIXTH HOUR!"
Brent is a fucking legend!
You won't believe, but, I have Brent's sticks at home. Brent give them to my son after the show in Graz, Austria, some 15 years ago in a privat conversation.
🔥➕🤘💀🎼🎸🎸🎸
Best american band.
and they re-recorded a solo with the mistakes too...?
Pure FuckING Epic..!
In this Song, o usually?
Matthew Barlow!!!!
Una oración por el pobre baterista jeje
I don't know if it is just a case but since Matt left Iced Earth has played really a few concerts at big metal events like this one here and even less as headliners... it seems the band has lost many fans with Block on the mic.
@kaliopas1 You probably don't know him...He is a new metalhead...His name is Zakk Wylde. :D... He has just joined the Iron Maidens.
501!!!!!!!
Matt fucking Barlow, unique and brutal
i don't understand..where's zakk wylde?whjen he joined iron maiden?what are talking about?? :P
Barlow, the only one to sing any song better live than on the album....except maybe DIO
Don’t forget Jon’s amazing riffs and Brent’s awesome drumming at the end
4:42 This is a not Human Performance Matt Fucking Barlow Is God..!
Well played, but... WHERE ARE THE SPECTATORS?
Bring Larry Tarnowski back. This solo was atmTroycious. He's a good guitarist but this solo got butchered like a dog in the Malaysian market
Music doesnt really get much better than this.. fuck me
15 YEARS i hear DARK SAGA OMG WHAT FUCK HELL
1:41 ...OMG DEVIL FACE..
devour and devide ; ´-/
now theycanplay in prison with barlow guarding schaffer lol
Dude...I was obviously talking about Steve Vai.
Roman Reigns on bass
🤣
Zakk Wylde is great on this video. :D I'm a fan.
he is, but come on man, barlow is just barlow
@steptoe1951 hahahahhahaha xD EPIC FAIL!
To learn how to fuck up a masterpiece in ten seconds, look at the solos in this one. One of the most poorly executed versions ever.
nowhere close to the alive in athens perfomance in all aspects..
+Mike Figat No shit, That was in 1999, in their prime. even the best vocalists wear down over time... Except for Bruce Dickinson, that man has Steel Vocal Cords
+McNasty He went down early, like, the powerslave tour or something. Luckily he rebounded....
Ronnie James?
Thats their best live album ever
Spartiatis except the solo was absolutely ruined
Fudido!
Pra cacete!!!!
the worst audience of all times. This song is classic.
+Disciple Of Seth when people are hypnotized they stand still
Well that's one way to see it. :)
Block is a much more dynamic vocalist.
no its not clean just his guitar sucks. suhr guitars are specially made for jazz and blues playing not for metal. idk why he uses suhr but that's the reason it sounds like that
This is simply.....wicked!!!
Another re recorded "live" by IE.
What an awful lead guitar tone lol
