Veil of Maya - "Lucy" & "Mikasa" LIVE! The Matriarch Tour 

+Smithysmithin Except he can't sing it live... I really don't understand why bands insist on writing vocal melodies that they know they will not have the endurance to sing accurately live... Lukas is talented but God that bugs me...

Thats true there really aren't... kudos to him for at least being ambitious enough to try

same, I've actually started a nice little idea/project from the chorus and the word mikasa has taken on a new meaning for me. to me, mikasa means to achieve immortality through making small changes to your environment such as signing your mame on a wall. as long as that wall is up and your name is on there, you will live forever in the minds of those who see the your name, whether it be arranged in stones on a beach, on a wall somewhere, etc. that is what mikasa means to me and why I truly love the chorus so much.

+Smithysmithin i can literally repeat the chorus like 90000000 times

+Rhinma but im immortal

***** sameees

Uh. He can't lol. He didn't hit a single note in either of those songs. The clean singing, I mean. It was so flat it ruined it.

@@andrewdickerson9133 sounds bad because its a live recording, you can tell what is bad singing vs. echooes diminishing a note. he actually did very well

@@andrewdickerson9133 I saw them a couple days ago. They were literally pitch perfect.

@@andrewdickerson9133 i think everything is tuned down a half step and he’s perfectly in tune. It’s not pitch perfect to the recording but in context it sounds right

@@andrewdickerson9133 old post but just saw these guys 2 weeks ago. Such an amazing vocalist live. amazing pitch and tone.

+Justin Sparks you look like you'd like magical looking guys singing

+Darren Kristianson who doesn't...

+Darren Kristianson lol I can't even comprehend the point you were trying to make :P

I like this band, but this is trash live

Dāvids Groza fuck yeah. Great cleans and uncleans.

No doubt!

Just a question. I do enjoy listening to this band but I have yet to actually listen to all their older stuff but I was talking to a friend of mine and he said that the old vocalist couldn't sing well so they didn't have cleans in their but they realiZed that Brandon could sing so they wanted to use that. So I guess my question is how true is that

***** true. Old guy could not sing.

Kouri Parrish well at least he didn't try right lol

Luis Rivera every old school VoM fan loves Danny, give it time they're new fans :p

Actually it's as many

@@sabakun0gaara The guitar has only 6 strings here.

Thats a 7 string bass...somehow

But only plays the first two form the top 😂

i was thinking the same

I see u everywhere

+MrCJduo who?

+Rui Carneiro fodasse ahahah

+MrCJduo cooped I see you

Don't forget Dan from After The Burial.

+Henry Jarnigan hes been in the band but yeah hes good, anf if im wrong... if this is a new drummer... the previous one was left handed.

+Michael Avalos it's still Sam

+Henry Jarnigan Chris Adler is a lefty

+Henry Jarnigan Dude, Cameron from BOO is a lefty but self-taught on standard set-up. Fuckin' props to that guy

hey b0ss

+taylor goulart Except he's flat in the chorus. I like VoM but let's not get carried away here.

Chris White I think he did a great job, it's a hard chorus to sing.

Yeah of course it's hard to sing live right at the upper limit of your vocal range, particularly after screaming. I don't know why they didn't just play it in a lower key though; I'd rather hear this song played a tone or so lower and in tune rather than identically to the studio version and flat. Those soaring notes in the chorus are meant to be the big crescendo in the song after all.

+Chris White I think that high note in the chorus is the only one he couldn't get at that time. maybe the reason the didn't drop the tuning a step or so is because he can get it from time to time. people usually dont look too critically at how the singer is singing in most metalcore bands (look at how famous the Amity Affliction is and their bassist can't sing at all live) so they just let it stay how it is.

+taylor goulart all the cleans are a little flat, however I think more than his vocal range being pushed too much it's more likely that his in ears are a little crappy and not giving him a clear idea of where he needs to be, a lost of vocalists will pitch a little flat when they can't hear themselves clearly. The reason I think this is more that he's consistently flat rather than fluffing one or two notes.

VengeanceAfter Right? His recorded lows aren't that great, but they're fuckin' beastly live. And them cleans though, goodness.

I would enjoy the album more if the lows in it were actually low. I have this same problem with northlanes node.

Matthew Curtiss We have Punisher on our channel from this show :)

Oh awesome!

+Matthew Curtiss Go Hawks!

Or maybe not, this live confuses me

Clarkzor Really though this show seems like everything was well balanced nothing was drowned out

Supportfailure For real though.

I could not agree more. I couldn't explain why but they do.

He's killing it!

A lefty drummers are always cool

@@amanfromnowhere1388 yes right, i just lil' bit uncomfortable

Jerome Turner lol

I think it's a 6 string so he can do guitar scales on it

1000alextico its a 7

1000alextico 7 string bass, 6 string guitar. Yeah, shit's wack. :)

fuck me seriously how does he get his hand around that thing, and I thought 6 strings where intimidating

Marc on 7 string now, Dan as well

Nicholas Heredia No. The only albums with Lukas are Matriarch and False idol. The old vocalist is Brandon Butler

I've not seen that since Viraemia's 10 string "bass"!

Im actually fairly convinced they play a half step lower live, or at least here. Alot of bands do that, mettalica does a full step lower. The reason it sounds of to you and i are because we probably have listened to the song plenty, so the intonation is beaten into our heads. I gotta in mine because im learning to play this song on guitar.

Do you know how hard it is to transition from screams to singing near the top of your vocal range?

Screams and cleans honestly is not best to pair with. So, just appreciate everything and listen to them. VoM is much more mature than the old one..

Yep
