Alexisonfire Reading Festival 2015-08-29 | 720p 

I come here at least once a week

Whoever recorded and mixed this audio did an unbelievable job. I've been coming back to this video for years.

Alexisonfire true Canadian gem ❤

There's something just timeless about this performance. It captured the same intensity and energy they had the first time I ever saw and heard them in 2004 when they were opening for Silverstein. You could tell this was one of the first times they got together and performed after breaking up where you can get a sense that the band still felt the spark they did in the beginning. Their music means more than ever now since the fans thought we'd lost them. The ever blossoming timbre of Dallas's voice, the energy that Chris and Wade bring to the stage, the frenetic chaos George contributes, and Jordan's locked in cadence... AOF are one of the bands whose blend of energy, riffs, poetry, and humility that have and will always resonate deeply with those of us that have always felt like we were the odd one out in the crowd. It's an incredible feeling having seen them return with new music, a new album and touring again. This past Wednesday was the first time I could take advantage of the opportunity to see them live in 18 years. A 2 hour set of the same energy they delivered at this performance in Reading and in that seedy dungeon of a hotel bar called Ace's Basement in Greensboro, NC all those years ago. Finding myself now on the wiser side of 40, I look back at all their music has meant throughout my 20s and 30s... They are one of the few bands I can say that truly enriched my life and helped tremendously to carry me through the darker times, so I extend my most sincere gratitude to Dallas, George, Wade, Chris, Jordan, and Jesse and want to thank you all for sharing the parts of yourselves that have made your music the treasure that it is.

That drummer never ceases to amaze me.

THIS SHOW WILL NEVER GET OLD!

probably watched this show 50+ times, everything about it is perfect.

that bassplayer is one intense fella! love it!!!

One of the most powerful live performances I've come across, no bullshit, just rocking out! Been coming back to this for 5 years!

Setlist: 0:00 Accidents 4:09 Boiled Frogs 8:46 Old Crows 13:08 The Northern 18:30 We Are the Sound 23:12 .44 Caliber Love Letter 28:20 Dog's Blood 34:17 Drunks, Lovers, Sinners and Saints 38:06 This Could Be Anywhere in the World 42:20 Young Cardinals

Accidents has got to be the best song to start a set with. Such a wicked tune!

Top 5 best bands in Canadian history.

The effort/energy in Dog's Blood is why Alexisonfire will forever be top 5 all-time for me.

Those vocals are so incredible. An exact reenactment of the album. Wowzers.

This has been my go to video on RU-vid for the last few years. This gig is f'ing special! How much I wish I was there! I'll still be here in 20 years time 😂

Fuck I absolutely love these guys. Seriously. Who's with me?!!

Among the greatest (next-to) reunion shows that ever were. What a way to shake a band back to life.

32:46 WHAT A VOICE !

300 million times i play this video and its still incredible. If this was night and the crowd wasnt baked, it would be one of the best live gigs of all time. Outrageously good!

I always come back to this performance. I've re-watched it so many times. Dallas is pouring out his soul on Dog's Blood.

The drummer gets overlooked so much in this band. He's incredible

Here we are in 2020, this band STILL fucking rages! One of my all time favorite live bands. Them and Thursday are my top 2.

wade is a canadian treasure

love that guy at 4:57

Saw these boys in 2019 at Blues Fest in Ottawa. Been coming back to this weekly since to relieve that night. Never let Alexisonfire die, one of the most under appreciated bands in Canadian history

They sound exactly like the Cd. Amazing.

So proud these guys are Canadian. They totally revolutionized the punk/hardcore/post-hardcore scene here and blew the doors wide open

I see these 'old guys' doing this after getting retired once from music, and see the other shows at the same festival, and realize that Alexisonfire schooled them all big time. That Dog's blood part after the calm...its just insane. They will always be legends. Too bad they didn't come to Portugal yet

I could literally watch this set every day for a month and not get sick of it.

38:40 best definition about what music and festivals are

it fucking went off during Dog's Blood. Can't believe this was almost a year ago. Best day.

Best Performance of All Time!!!!! Absolute beauties repping us Canadians!!

This is a .44 caliber love letter straight from my heart. Man listening to this show is nostalgic as hell.

The best 1-2 punch of "whoa whoa whoa" songs ever to start a concert. Plus I love how psyched George is about his own songs when he is not singing.

The mix on this performance is incredible. And Wade is rocking an OVO sweater.

bruh,,,,the bass player was in a different dimension. Beautiful.

Brilliant band, I met them at Birmingham academy in the early 2000's, they got steven crowder on vox, who could want more

This is probably one of the best recorded concerts I have ever seen soundwise. 🤘

I literally come here everyday.

I was there for this. Was amazed they were playing main stage and only 4 off headline. But absolutely incredible, class is permanent. And recently saw them at Brixton Academy and so glad they're even more than the band they used to be

Only alexis made open air venues feel like they're playing in a school hall. Always energy. Always brought 100% volume. fuck yeah!!

You have to wonder where Steele goes during an Alexis set. It's amazing to see. He's so detached...

one of the most incredible sets i've experienced encapsulated in a video i can come back to whenever i miss it

The energy, passion & ferocity in that 4 song closer portion, is exactly why this is one of the best bands of their generation. CAN FUCKING FEEL IT THROUGH THE SCREEN.

Alexisonfire never disappoints when it comes to playing live,seen many live shows and they always sound just like off the album and there performance is always energetic,Canadian Proud for these guys very lookin forward to the new album.

Still the only band ever. Also, how is this mixed so well?! I come back to this video weekly, it's incredible

This is hands down one of the best live performances of not just AOF, but of any band at Reading Festival.

what amazes me the most is that they sound so good (specially the vocals) without in-ears monitors

Still listen to Alexisonfire all the time ❤ My sister made me an Alexisonfire TShirt

I wish this crowd was engaged. Its hard to watch these beauts tearing apart that stage and everyone just stands there.

One of the best live performances on RU-vid

Just listened to Dog’s Blood in this video for the 178th time. Now I’m climbing Mount Everest blindfolded with no clothes on. What happened.

Welcome back boys - good to see Alexis still going strong in 2019.

This is probably my favorite AOF performance on RU-vid. Unreal version of "Accidents" kicking it all off.

God... This band will always have my heart... Come back full time please!!!-!

Drummer and guitarrist voice are really stealing the whole show. So much good energy from this performance

Favourite band of all time! Gotta fucking love hardcore! That transition into Boiled Frogs was a beaut! ✌

One of these best live shows that's ever been uploaded to RU-vid.

The sound engineers at Reading and Leeds are amazing 👏 😍

Just came here again to say that I am going to see them live at Lollapalooza Brazil 2022, just can't believe I'm gonna see my fav band 😭😭😭

This is the first time I listen to Alexisonfire and I LOVE THEM!!!!

this set never stops being epic!!

They’re always finding ways to play their old songs. This performance encapsulates how creative and innovative band. Every aspect of their musicianship improving. This video is timeless

Love watching this set! The passion from the band and crowd is incredible to watch

truly amazing. ..gives my goosebumps!

Best RU-vid recommend this year. I have been missing some Alexisonfire in my life lately.

The only band ever.

¡Te amo Alexisonfire!

Thank u for uploading this! Man I truly miss alexisonfire music!! 💪🏾✊🏾

still watching this show after all these years. amazing.

I've watched this set countless amounts of times now and pretty sure that's Daniel Ricciardo smiling away up in the VIP section 41:59😄Know he's a big Alexis fan what a legend 🙌

Drummer is such a beast I love it

31:04 when the drugs really kick in. I love you guys one of the greatest bands I've ever seen live.

Fuck I love this band so much

Que plateia mais parado... Impossível não sentir vontade de sair socando todo mundo quanto toca alexisonfire, é chute e porradaria para todo canto com a energia que a música transpassa !!

You rock, guys! With love from SP, saw you at Cine Joia, SP, Brazil, unforgettable.

Amazing band amazing live.

no matter if in 2007... 2017.. and now 2020... the reaction is always the same when i hear dallas green.

2019? Anyone else? Happy new year!

During the northern there's a bit where they all walk to the front of the stage....really stands out that they have 4 front men. Best band ever in my opinion ❤❤

band sounds really good live, both vocals are sooo top notch.

24:02 Finally good to see a video of good parenting on the internet.

I never realized how amazing wade is.

how good can it get , what a explosion of energy - amazing amazing amazing

somehow this really puts me in a happy mood, thanks for sharing!!

Precisamente este recital grabado de Alexisonfire es una joyita para cualquier amante del buen rock. Si ese público fuera sudamericano sería una maravilla!!! Te amo AOF!!! Cada día escucho este set!!

Best version of dogs blood. Dallas is unreal here

So much love for these guys ♥️♥️♥️ still from 2006

Most solid Reading set I've seen. Crowd to match too :)

Still coming back to this monthly haha

Amazing set....this was a great day. BMTH were bloody great too!

Wow, George sounds really good live.

Simply one of the best shows ever.

This is fire. Thank you.

This makes me so happy :D

There is crazy and beautiful sound.

Watching this video in 2018. Damn I feel 12 years younger again😂😂😂 Amazing band. I've been listening to them since 2006

That was fucking amazing. I have been buying their albums since 2005 also a Dallas Green fan and this was awesome. Some point mid-way in the show the detonated along with the crowd becoming an orgasmic experience of love and amazingness through till the ending
