It could be that I’m high, but to me all the band members look so uniquely different from one to another in the way they look, dress, vibe, and perform on stage. It’s almost like they took 5 guys from different genres and put them all together to make Soilwork.
Soilwork melodic death metal legends, awesome! For some melodic trance-metal with very melodic electronics and vox from sweden, orginally inspired by modern melodic death metal check s out! /Best Regards MDF
Not a bad performance, seems the mix was a bit out with bass a touch high and guitars a bit low, but it's not an album playing it's open air it's going to sound how it does. New album is awesome can't wait to see them.in November in Sydney. Sadly David will be missed. 🙏RIP.
Dang... I understand bands have bad days, but since Dirk left, it’s been rough. They really need to get into a rehearsal space and get back to what they’re capable of. Bastian just needs to take the time to learn the drums parts as well. Still love the band though, just growing pains.
I know this is an old comment, but why does Soilwork seem to have such a high turn over of band members? I love their albums, but never really paid attention to the band itself. Digging into my favourite albums, I've realised they arent as good without Peter Wichers :/
I agree, Bastian gets a lot of shit in these comments that I dont think is warranted. He's a solid drummer, is he Dirk, no, but Dirk is one tough guy to replace. Ive played for almost 30 year's now, and some of his patterns are incredibly hard. I'd say Bastian is about 90% there, and that's pretty damn good given how big those shoes are he is filling. The rest of the band is doing decent. David I feel could be more active on stage, he is pretty boring to watch. Sylvain and the bassist (can't remember his name off hand) are putting on a pretty good show and have good crowd interaction. Not Bjorns best, but not his worst. Also gotta take into consideration how long he's been doing this. And From Bastian wearing a sweater, I want to say it's chilly out and that will affect vocals.
Bastian is clearly trying to do his very best, but as it is, it's just not enough for Soilwork. Dirk, on the other hand, he was just the very best without even trying.
Are you out of your mind? Out of touch? Tone deaf? A bit on the bonjour side perhaps? This is some of the worst live vocals Soilwork has ever done live.
Been seeing a lot of the comments on here sharing my disappointment in the band's level of live performances in the recent years, and felt I'd throw in my thoughts on this. I want to first say, despite not being able to hear Sylvain in the mix, he is pulling his weight and kicking ass, as always! Sylvain is a shredder, badass Frenchman with intense musicality. Those who are hearing the guitars all over the place are actually stuck having to hear David's super terrible right hand try to execute some of the demanding rhythms. He is kinda disgusting if you ask me and brings the quality of the band way down a lot. Listening to David sounds like a mucked up Rock Band video game session. Bjorn has had better performances as well, but this one isn't entirely horrible. Bastian is trying, you can hear it. He's got a ways to go in becoming proficient enough to fill Dirks shoes. Bass player and Sven were also doing a good job holding their own. Again.... David should really consider leaving the band if he doesn't want to up his game. He seems like a prick though who would never be capable of taking this kind of feedback and using it to grow enough inside to help make this band shine. David if you read this, please try man.... This actually makes me sad... this use to be my favorite band of all time... and now I have none....
@@rubyrutin3336 You might be right about that haha! Every band has it's ups and downs, still me favorite band. It's not like I've nailed EVERY performance I've been involved in either and it's clear this band has been through a lot given member changes and style changes.. and they are still here kicking ass! The new drummer is sick; the guy plays shit I couldn't even dream of with a look on his face like he could be cooking at the same time XD Love from Canada!
In all fairness, they all probably are. I remember when their former bassist left, Strid mentioned the guy worked regular shifts as a prison warden. He missed that lifestyle and quit.
Was the sound dude deaf or something. The instruments are all over the place man. They played pretty sloppy overall too so that didn't help the cause. A lot of bands get screwed in these festival settings something always goes wrong. Look at the Annihilator set from the same year and the same stage, the difference is day and night just in the sound alone, you can actually hear all the instruments and not only a bass and one guitar.
Ya this dude is definitely no demon hunter in concert. Awesome studio albums...... But everything is off. From his screaming to where you can't understand the lyrics to singing without a backbone live. He should've done what dope does....... What you cannot do in a studio you make up for it in concert. Just watch EDSEL'S live music and you'll see he creates ways for the music to sound awesome in a live performance
It's gonna be a tough set when the only one running in-ear monitoring is the drummer. This mix ain't helping things either. o_0 I hope it at least sounded better in the crowd.
This break my heart... These guys are so much better than this, well I can't speak for the drummer. But when The Living Infinite came out and I saw the tour. One of the best show I had ever seen.
Походу Бъёрн был не в лучшей форме. Голос уставший. Учитывая ихний плотный гастрольный график не удивительно, с любым может случиться. А так по факту один из крутейших вокалистов!)
God DAMN. I've seen Soilwork live in a tiny, shitty venue in Charlotte and they sounded LEAGUES better than this, even though it was one of those insanely loud venues that murders your hearing. I'm sure this performance sounded way different in the crowd, but audio mixing aside, the whole band just played so sloppy. Especially Bjorn. I know he's a fantastic singer, but he just seemed so out of it here.
Digital TRICKERY? Umm.. no. Nobody's trying to trick anyone there, genius. A studio recording has one purpose and one purpose only: Make the music sound as good as possible. Modern metal is heavily layered, because they fill the entire tonal spectrum, because that's what sounds good on live tracks. A recently recorded album from a popular progressive metal band has a song with 29 track layers and it sounds heavenly. They play with a backing track live because they would need 29 musicians on stage. Soilwork has started using backing tracks as well because this is how bad they sound live haha. it's fine because metal bands are open and honest about it. Nobody wants to spend 60 bucks on a concert and then be subjected to our favorite bands butchering their own music.
Whoa.... a band filled with talent - has the worst day on stage ever. Hit the rehearsal space . Or fix whatever issues have transpired and get the boys back together.
Man, bastian really cant play on the level that soilwork needs. lacking speed and groove. so sad :( i've seen soilwork live at metaltown in gothenburg. amazing gig. this is made me legit sad to see.
