Royal Blood - Mountains at Midnight (Later... with Jools Holland)

Love Royal Blood. I can’t wait for them to drop the new album.

@@extramile669 Wasn't overly fond of their last two albums honestly. Their first album was much better in my opinion.

@@mynameismud-qd9vu there work definitely has different levels of greatness totally agree but all in all I believe one of the better ore creative for sure bands that are still relatively fresh perfect example in my opinion would be highly suspect their last couple albums our trash in my opinion they might have a song or two that are decent but their first couple every song was fire!

Wow, I absolutely love their first album, but I will not hear a bad word said about typhoons. It is a track for track masterpiece.

[@paulwatkins142]

Few negative comments bout royal blood lately ,i seen them in cardiff few yrs ago ,got to say one of the best live acts ive seen ...outstanding in my opinion..

[@deanlewis4536]

Agree, saw them at Alexander Palace few years ago...great live act, going Hammersmith apollo in October

[@MW-dd8vk]

Saw them headline The O2 Arena last year, can’t help but agree

[@MrMettwurst96]

They're still outstanding. Saw them 2 weeks ago in Berlin. Only band i've seen that actually made german fans go completely bonkers

[@thelord5895]

Seen them a few times and absolutely love them, I do wish they put a bit more into their performances or set design though. Their music perfectly fits a live gig which means they don't need it but it could make them even better.

[@beausmith9066]

They’re good live, yes, but most of these negative comments are more to do with Mike being a bit of a douche. There’s a lot of negative stuff out there about him as a person…

[@starkindifference9715]

Clapping for them cause they deserve it. Can't stop listening to this song btw

[@xhupf]

One of the best bands I've seen live, ever. Cannot wait for the album to drop!

[@davilenine6420]

I'm clapping, love them

[@emelman3948]

This guys need to come to Mexico and South America to know what a real audience look like…

[@MrMettwurst96]

funnily enough they don't need to go to Mexico/ South America for that. I've seen them in Germany 2 days ago and they were the only live act ever where the whole crowd went absolutely bonkers. They're on a level where they can make (almost lol) every crowd fantastic

[@alejandrabarron3977]

they actually did go to mexico and argentina but it would be cool to see them in mexico again apparently going to mexico and latin america was hevily anticipated by them but there was covid

[@rintoo6548]

So that they are standing around recording the entire concert with their phones?

[@edgarrjsp]

They came here in Brazil on April, 16. And it's true. Mike almost didn't sing. We did it at his place.

[@musica-fl7fk]

THIS IS A REAL VOICE !!!! SO GOOD

[@JoshMobleyMusic]

Royal blood is just savage. Kings of the riffs

[@extramile669]

The fact every tone u here is from a bass guitar with some very creative effects is simply amazing! Other then things like keyboard or other electronic effects all the string parts are from the bass guitar sounds obviously like a mixture of bass guitar an electric guitar ability to use effects to your advantage and not even need that extra member lol

[@geraldhartley]

Such a great band with brilliant hooks.

[@DoomerSoul]

I've been listening to their recent setlist on repeat as I'm seeing them at Huddersfield stadium this month with Muse. They're great.

[@sonjonfill]

OMG! That sounds unreal! How was it?

[@Anyoneelsei]

Awesome band

[@tommydiamond3539]

Better than most of the bands nowadays, such a shame people don’t fucking clap anymore

[@Bear38088]

I like royal blood too, but they have to recognise that at a festival like radio one big weekend it’s mainly pop and rap artists where the crowd aren’t there for a heavy rock band. Those gigs u just gotta play, accept ur fans aren’t present and move on. No need to be rude and up your own arse about one bad gig.

[@brianbarrett2487]

I'm a bruise you soothe In your dancing shoes I'm a ticking timebomb hooligan Come to light your fuse Twenty-four karat thug In a velvet glove Pining for pretty potions Down those holes you dug Bouncing off of the walls Of mountains at midnight Crawling out of my bones 'Til the break of the daylight Another rosy rouse Another shiver from my spine Crawling out of my bones 'Til the break of the daylight I'm the hidden draw Of what you were before A splice then play back reels From the cutting room floor And nothing gets me close To how I wanna feel Try to suck it up But I still got no fear Bouncing off of the walls Of mountains at midnight Crawling out of my bones 'Til the break of the daylight Another rosy rouse Another shiver from my spine Crawling out of my bones 'Til the break of the daylight Bouncing off of the walls Of mountains at midnight Crawling out of my bones 'Til the break of the daylight Another rosy rouse Another shiver from my spine Crawling out of my bones 'Til the break of the daylight

Yeah that's the cool thing about Royal blood is that most of their songs are just the 2 of them, Mike kerr is the bassist and singer and then Ben Thatcher is the drummer, hope that helps 😊

[@JarrodKane_Music]

It’s a two piece band mate. They had backing vocals off stage and that was about it

[@HomebrewHorsepower]

​@JarrodKane_Music actually the backing vocals are a sample triggered off the drum kit. Ben has to actually trigger them while he's playing.

You must be one of the boring lot at the big weekend, not interested in music just wanted to see Lewis capaldi. If you weren't interested in any other acts you could have just gone to a Lewis gig and The crowds for NBT before royal blood were so dead and chanting"who are you?" To them. Massive disrespect to a band.

So true. When I heard all the hoohaa about the audience being asleep at the previous performance, I thought I'd have a listen to see what all the fuss is about. They sound pretty average to me, and that's me being charitable because the weather is nice today. 😂

[@adderhoney]

Dear Lord, I managed to make it to the end. Is this what passes for popular music now? If Muse are a poor man's Radiohead then I'm not sure what these guys are. There's a reason why bands need a bass player... 😂

​@@adderhoney This band only has a bass player and a drummer... Crap point

[@MrHeavyMetal93]

I enjoy Royal Blood and Rock is my favourite genre by a mile but this just sounds pretty flat to me, like I don't see the big fuss. Pretty generic tbh.

[@lyleclarke619]

Production really saves them, this just sounds so empty.

[@madsam7582]

It's not production, it's his effect pedals, he has a splitter, a POG, and a load of other things that he had to work with in his garage, so they can pull off this sound. When he plays one note, it's split into two, one is fuzzed and harmonised so that one sounds like a power chord, the other is driven higher.

[@veggie42]

it's like muse to me

I respectfully disagree, I like their sound better live

Fucking hell guys, isn't it about time you hired more musicians to fill the sound out. You can write the tunes but you're missing out on the effect of a having a big sound.

[@legshakermaker1968]

Their latest idea seems to be to behave like butt hurt schoolboys to generate some free publicity. Does the person who presses 'play' ever appear on stage with them?

[@brianbarrett2487]

​@@dead_penguin maybe get some actual musicians. Having a gig drummer and no guitars probably doesn't do much to 'invoke clapping'
