mewithoutYou - Red Cow | Audiotree Live

Download & stream mewithoutYou on Audiotree Live -- smarturl.it/AT-...
mewithoutYou has been an iconic presence in heavy indie rock for over a decade. They’ve released five albums to date, each one as surprising and dynamic as the next. Known for his intellectual lyrical style, vocalist Aaron Weiss pens visceral metaphors in his whimsical tales. mewithoutYou’s most recent project, “Pale Horses,” channels the heavy, grittier sound of their early releases. Songs like “Red Cow” and “Mexican War Streets” rumble along with an explosive tension reminiscent of 2004’s “Catch for Us the Foxes”.
Recorded on June 11, 2015 in Chicago, IL.

[@AugustMishayev]

Yep. Still amazing in 2024.

[@Anthony-pq4vr]

agreed

[@CinnamonCorndog]

around the 2:45 minute mark. In the background ol buddy aaron sits down on the amp, crosses his legs, takes a sip of water, contemplates the universe for a moment then steps up to the mic "WAS HE A VIOLENT MAAAAAN? WELL HE HAD HIS GENOCIDAL MOMENTS." One of sickest moments on youtube.

[@0Tuma]

+Seth Adams i thought exactly the same thing

[@bisontenial]

So so so true, I love how he just drops the bottle before stepping up for such an epic entry!

[@Finngrinder]

WHAT PHARAOH SPELL, WHAT PICTURE HOLDS US NOW??

[@javiergr190]

I just couldn't agree more. I like how he even puts the bottle's cap back, a second before the most awesome vocals in YT

[@st1gmatic134]

fuck yeah

[@stevenh1374]

Aaron sounds as energetic now as he did 10 years ago. Also the sound is mixed so well on this session, and they sound so tight/excellent.

[@IRieAsAVirus37]

Yes and those Drums are on point ,sounds great because seems like they used a lower volume...

[@otzenfree1998]

Audiotree always is so dang crispy 🤌

[@mundunugu5648]

Yelling Water bottle break Yelling This album is fantastic. They should of performed the entire thing with Audiotree. Please do, thanks.

[@ryndanriley5348]

I really wish they at least did Mexican War Streets. Cant get enough of that second verse especially.

[@Chandler17447]

i see this band is quite fond of the sunburst finish

[@aidanlisney5546]

You get a sunburst guitar when you join the “indie rock” club.

[@kentrey]

Been on youtube over 10 years and this is my most watched video. That chorus explodes. This and Silencer are perfect.

[@griffincl]

I like this version way more than the album version. Live mix is perfect here

[@griffincl]

@BK BK what does that even mean lol

[@binzianer]

When the chorus starts and the guitar / shouting combe starts, goosebumps every time

[@FairyCRat]

I love how Brandon here plays the rhythm guitar part using a Telecaster's neck pickup with distortion. That's probably the heaviest sound I've ever heard out of a single-coil.

[@bobbyganeej]

This is an excellent version of this song. kudos to the whole band! Definitely did not suffer from 'live performance lacks big impact' syndrome One hundred god damn percent awesome!

[@josephsoukup8520]

Whoa! How this band continues to influence my life!!! Years and years and years.

[@robnadeau13]

Exactly.

[@charmweathers]

Honestly I tear up a little listening to this, it takes me back to when I saw them 2 months ago and they played this... absolute perfection

[@NoleLilley]

I'll keep coming back here to watch this again and again, it hits so hard.

[@HaYdEnKiLlS]

mewithoutYou, always have been and always will be one of my favourite bands!

[@RickThatcher]

This song, and this performance in particular, is just fucking incredible. I can't get enough of it. Aaron's intensity is insane.

[@khazad25]

I watched this performance when it first got posted which made me go check out Pale Houses, which made me a fan, and now they're my favourite band. So uh, great job Audiotree

[@Halorifedhshahfhe]

For the song Dorothy, the verse part that says 'Eloi, Eloi, Lama Sabachthani' means 'My God, My God why have you forsaken me?'

[@chrisfit]

Saw them live. Opened for Say Anything. This song made the night. So much energy.

[@andrewfleming5397]

i heard this live on Monday night and it was just as sweet as this, the energy in that singer is unreal

[@Durfit]

How can there possibly be people that could sit here and listen enough to get an actual opinion on this amazing performance to then go and dislike it?

[@FairyCRat]

Maybe people who listen to dance-pop only.

[@camcam4828]

So glad that Zach Galifianakis was available to play drums for these sessions!

[@nickgreenhow5513]

Eric Wareheim* it's OK to get them confused they've done comedy together.

[@GerlachsFlorian]

+Cam Cam (Camcam) LMFAO! X-D

[@michaelhand4246]

You misspelled Bert Kreischer

[@ilhamafndi]

lol 😂

[@LateNightRewrites]

Weirdly enough bald Galifainakis was on lead vocals. China must have perfected cloning

[@kyrstinneeley5763]

Goosebumps. This band is the best.

[@YaBoyMacD]

Seriously. Goosebumps

[@ryndanriley5348]

Audiotree has some of the best performances on KZbin, and this is one of the best performances on Audiotree. So do with that what you will.

[@theoldblood3804]

These guys and Tv on the Radio are to this day 2 of the best bands Iv ever seen live.

[@poeticteen00]

Watching the entire band getting into the music just pumps me up all the more. I love this band so much.

[@agusmonaco1738]

"Red Cow" Before the Red Sea flood beneath a cornhusk dawn We bid the Elkhorn run to a locomotive psalm Until the pale horse comes along a rail withdrawn Clanging loudward on, clanging loudward on We bid the Elkhorn run until the red cow comes I was a steadfast son, with thoughts and hooves divided And on the arid ground of thirsty Zion's hill Cold waters tumbled down where the staff of Moses fell What Pharaoh spell, what picture holds us now? Behold the snake of brass, the wind was blowing backwards Behold a golden calf, blighted leaves of Law O for the land we knew before the frogs withdrew In the fragrant pomegranate blooms where the tender locust flew Behind the milk-white tombs, behind the milk-tank cars We passed the North Platte yard on silver tracks unguarded Out past the sambar herds, out to the outcast birds In the rust of open wagons, Lo! the Blessed Virgin's likeness We watched the green figs fall from the Nebraska sky How much were even passive things responsive to our watchful eye! And let there be no doubt: so many figs and pictures hold us In the wells of livestock vans with shells and garden sands Iron mixed with oxygen as per the laws of chemistry and chance A shape was roughly human, it was only roughly human Apparition eyes apparition eyes Knock Apparition Knock eyes apparition eyes Was he a violent man? Well, he had his genocidal moments... Or penned by fiction's hand? To whom could that phrase not apply? How much are even lifeless sounds responsive to our listening ear! What Pharoah now, what Paroah now, or Jew or picture holds us here?

[@davidfrancis7975]

Wow cant get enough of this song , amazing piece of art ! Some scream to boot

[@aidenmarshall6478]

Man I wish I could scream so bad

[@demoncleaner45]

Anyone else keep thinking Aaron is going to be late to the mic after the water break at 2:45

[@moesix]

dat Touche Amore t-shirt

[@AllanHathaway]

OMG! That drummer looks so cool B-)

[@misterchristopher9376]

Allan Tober You should see him live... he goes OFF! It's like he's possessed.

[@robnadeau13]

He is THAT cool.

[@SamsMusicification]

[@feralhound23]

[@Night5225]

[@yehoshuab5903]

First time listening to this song... WOW!!!! Thank you for posting this

[@bisontenial]

So amazing!!! His voice is so good

[@3CourseProductions]

Whoa! These dudes still play? I saw them play with Norma Jean at Showcase Theatre in like 2004, Memphis Will Be Laid to Waste, is still a bad ass song.

[@jonphillips416]

DRIng That old solidstate records lineup =P

[@Conn210]

DRIng Their new album Pale Horses is a masterpiece.

[@michaelwoodard5029]

DRIng If you haven't kept up with them since then you have missed a lot of really good albums. But I've seen that video of Memphis and it was awesome!!

[@LockDOTspot]

DRIng Norma jeans first album is probably my favorite album of all time.

[@davidmahone5603]

+LockDOTspot .

[@mdstevens0612]

Rock on, bleeding and all. So much respect for bands that can just push through stuff like that, I'd wuss out if I just heard feedback from the amps (' ^.^)

[@WesleyShark]

Amazing.

[@animrav3692]

i love this song soo much!!

[@seantaylor537]

Incredible set and fantastic mix!

[@brianperez4203]

Muy buena banda! Greetings from Argentina!

[@alekrunko]

Aaron, though. absolutely stunning.

[@Jusu03]

Pure Art

[@willd7884]

I love how the drummer holds his sticks backwards

[@julianandresescobaravila3406]

que buena melodía, good song

[@thechizzamiliz]

Fucking love this song

[@ediasgohan8547]

IVE GOT A FUCKING BON ERRRRRRRR I LOVE THESE DUDES

[@minus9us677]

i take the lyrics personally, not sure who or what aaron is talking to/about, but i KNOW what im hearing. i know noone will believe me, but i know where the staff fell, ive seen the burning bush. and this is NOT A JOKE! wish i could talk to him.. sounds like a specific description of a specific shrine... you know the one....

[@xxmfflxx]

I can see Aaron really trying to hold back from dancing haha

[@iasminalcala4976]

yeahhhhhhh!!!!

[@ryanruzicka6944]

Fucking beautiful

[@timbrumley8196]

Dude looks like TEDDY KGB then he starts screaming like awesome sauce....so great

[@themarychulive]

you don't see too many drummers with stage presence

[@Tatumnscottt]

This might be my most watched KZbin video

[@joshlizaola5619]

Wow

[@JK-ve9ho]

Is the drummer wearing Sufi prayer beads?

[@Achhcaa]

Arctangent... See you there.

[@chasefuller8496]

Dat Touche Amore shirt doh

[@12rockandrollforever]

that Touché Amoré shirt tho

[@jeremiahfernandez9161]

I almost punched my screen when the video buffered

[@SurrealiusFilms]

it just me or is there like a pile of blood on the drummer's pants? Like it is totally Hardcore if it is blood because motha fuckkaa went HAM.

[@audiotree]

SurrealiusFilms Yep that's blood

[@GizmoDaRobot]

Audiotreetv why is there blood?

[@foxlayers]

Sometimes u fail with the drum circles

[@GizmoDaRobot]

foxlayers I know I'm a drummer, it happens to me all the time i was just wondering if it was already there or not

[@coullmusic]

GizmoDa Robot probably from holding the stick at its neck...splinters 'n' shit

[@otzenfree1998]

This makes me feel like i could fight god and win

[@patrikpontos7688]

Kudos to Hayley Williams for introducing me this band (not personally oc 😢 )

[@roberthale6572]

this mother upper places the foot to the cheek a kiss on your ear

[@raveandsweets]

damnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn

[@isaiahperrry]

Anyone else notice that the drummer's playing with the wrong ends of his drumsticks?

[@tman695695]

+Isaiah Perry that's his usual style

[@isaiahperrry]

Tyler Marshall I hadn't noticed until then when I made that comment. Is that bad for the drum heads?

[@tman695695]

+Isaiah Perry haha the way he hits definitely

[@happymembranophone]

+Isaiah Perry It's not really bad for them, the larger end gets a 'bigger' tone from the drums which is good for a rock band. You can buy sticks with different sized and shaped heads for different applications.

[@ac731]

I wonder if Aaron told the host to stop saying, "mewithouchew"

[@kingdomhearts45Th]

Andrew Simmons that's Hon Solos' band.

[@truth654567]

I dislike the way this was filmed, the intense moments should have been focused on the singer. Amazing job on the song, this album is great.

[@g.gg.g1838]

i see a nick cave influence in a way

[@g.gg.g1838]

vocally of course

[@0Tuma]

this is the most hipster drummer i've ever seen

[@JHays]

Sounds like Modest Mouse

[@waldonjacob]

It sounds like mewithoutYou.

[@JHays]

Ok, they're mewithoutYou. They still sound like modest mouse. No big deal.

[@rowanbadhwar877]

J Hays Modest Mouse is Amazing,.. but mwY has been the best band since before the dawn of time. They're both great but,, I don't hear the similarities..

[@guldan3436]

not even close wtf

[@devon9249]

Jesse Omega wtf you're trippin

[@camac92]

I've loved mewithoutYou for a long time, but this album just hasn't been doing it for me.

[@skateboarderlucc]

This sounds a lot like modest mouse

[@stevedietrich3084]

What MM song sounds like this? Never listened to them before but have heard of them.

[@xxmfflxx]

I can see Aaron really trying to hold back from dancing haha
