This crowd is the best. No screaming and freaking out. Let people enjoy the song. No one would hear them if you yell out your lungs

Nah bro just went to one of their new shows where it was nearly a mosh pit, that shit was a vibe, and it didn’t take away from the music as all

[@drumcovers3501]

Funny you say that cause at the show I was at they were shouting over their own songs and asking for crowd surfers 😂

[@RydeTheTiger]

This is so incredibly tight. they are playing all those hammerons/pulloffs on different parts of the neck in sync...SUCH TALENT...WOW

When you are moving around it makes no difference if what is playing is slayer, polyphia, or even mecrophagist. It pretty much sounds the same. But when you stop to listen you can understand what they are doing

[@davidchettri2654]

INSANE,INSANE

[@lilyyanthan1034]

Wow so clean ❤

This is music for the sake of music, not for dancing or something. Just like Bebop, unlike Swing, it was made for just listening so the crowd's stiffness is pretty predictable. However, all of these fans in here saying "Yeah, they're just stunned and amazed about the performance. That's why they don't move" man idk. Besides the fact people that comes to the shows are hella different from each other and with different skill levels and first glances, some of you might be joking around and stuff but for the ones that are serious about it (lol), as someone said in the comments, *most of the people in the crowd are musicians* ; and boy, musicians are constantly analyzing and rating the other's playing along the show. I've seen this thing so many times it's dumb to read some of the comments in here; even some of these people are just evaluating the live playing more than enjoying the whole stuff, sadly. That's what we got to learn from emotional fans of other kinds of genres. They're living a whole different experience not concentrating on the musicians' missing notes but feeling the music in a more "synesthetic" way. That's a life lesson for many of the obsessed musicians out there, they become technique snobs who just got an eye for music robots.

[@994bob1]

I very much agree. Musicians are very ego centered and often listen to music with critisism and compare them to other musicians. I often catch myself in the moment of listening to a song, only to analyze it rather than enjoy it... It's a curse really. We should rather take in the creativity and create something our own, than to judge others for not doing a good enough job

[@c2sora919]

I mean, the ideal is to have both, a technical and well-written composition but one that obviously appeals to one's emotions. Heaps of Polyphia fans are fans not because the music is hard to play but there's also an emotional connection that they've made with the song. The reason why musicians are "analysing" these guys' music is because they've never heard it before so wtf are they meant to do? Music made for listening is far more musically integral than dance/pop music, yet more enjoyable because the same emotional connection is there plus there's the factor that these are talented people who can produce music no one else can, unlike these awful pop singers nowadays.

[@leonardofelipesilva2809]

@@nathang1184 I'm just saying cause I play bass, even been in a metal band as a bass player, I guess I've played some harder lines on bass than these ones, but I'm not saying this is basic stuff. My point is that the other instruments are next level stuff. As I see, this band is totally driven by the guitar lines, the bass rarely has its highlights, and when it does its very poor. It sounds like its just a fill instrument, it doesn't create an idea inside the song.

[@micro_6742]

[@jayharr8839]

Most of the crowd are probably musicians, with this type of music most fans are musicians themselves, observing and experiencing the technical ability rather than feeling it. Alot of other genres have more emotional experiences from the music, but with polyphia thats not really the focus.

[@SinnGread]

I prefer to see a band play music ..not play arpeggio , with if you are lucky some forced sounding odd time... it goes no where your time would be better spent watching a Hamster run on a wheel

If a band puts a lot of effort into making a complex, technical and well written composition, people will bitch. But if a band puts an easy chug djenty riffs, people will also bash them saying no variety and diversity of skills. We just cant seem to please everyone now, can we?
