Circus Maximus - Live In Japan HD

[@chrismenelly3781]

The guitarist's tone is freaking amazing!

[@cmptrn825]

Yeah, can't believe how nice it sounds live

[@Undercoverfire]

William The Whale Well, in the beginning he's saying he just used his guitar processor and ran it straight into the mixing board, so the tone you're hearing, probably captured from the board, is virtually identical to his studio tone.

[@sergiopusep]

U are supposing he only uses Axe FX in the studio as well? I think he uses it live because it's practical; but no reason not to use some real badass amps when he's recording for a studio album.

[@stormcorrosion176]

Chris Menelly incredible solo tone

[@bunnlose]

K.I.S.S. in fear of using one of norways most iconic slogan, simplisity isnt always that bad. one of the things i love about C.M. the cleeness in the sound, and still beeing badass and prog as hell!

[@kelpbeds]

...And not one cell phone....respect.

[@andresmoncayo6843]

haha interesting!!

[@shinryuheika8581]

yeah, high and strict discipline when comes to rule, and also, there strict law about copyright that why it's prevent them to take photo/video about musical concert

[@GRILLBUOY101]

so great of a band those cell phone hipsters need there asses kicked and to learn respect pussies. mine stays in car

[@Skeimag]

This should have been done a long time ago, so might as well do it myself since I see this concert a couple of times a month: 10:30 - Forging (getting on stage) 11:45 - Namaste 15:50 - One 20:57 - Arrival of Love 25:30 - I am 32:10 - Abyss 38:04 - Alive 45:08 - Game of Life 50:50 - Last Goodbye

[@kindred5765]

There just aren't enough thumbs up for concert. Super underrated band. Killer show

[@AndreVieiraguitarist]

Circus Maximus! Very under rated! Just like Symphony X! AWESOME BANDS

[@chexlemeneux3484]

+Andre Vieira I don't think Symphony X is underrated. They are not very far behind Dream Theater in terms of mainstream popularity (for a prog metal band). Other than Circus Maximus, Prog metal bands such as Pagan's Mind, Anubis Gate, Myrath and Haken are underrated in my opinion.

[@AndreVieiraguitarist]

+Chex LeMeneux agreed to certain extent, I still think there's a long bridge between these bands and DT thou. Not when it refers to fans like us , but media in particular.

[@superlavaman]

I think no band is under rated by their fans; it's just not mainstream, so only people who like real music dig it

[@Cotramjoxxx]

Dream Theater is unique well-rated band in the progmetal world. All other bands are underrated.

[@JimboSolo]

Jimbo Solo il y a 18 secondes (modifié) All those bands are not underrated even in 2018 they just dont get as much view and media attention then DT who already made his name. But underrated ? like underestimate the value ? Nah Symphony X , Pagans Mind , Circus Maximus , Dt maybie different but all on top level.

[@mkeysou812]

Damn these guys are amazing. There's a few prog-metal bands around, but this is real eargasm stuff!

[@michaelheck6919]

This is an absolute high end production. The pictures, the sound. Even subtitled in several languages. So this was not chap at all. It was crowdfunded, so thank you very, very much for everyone who paid for this to make it happen, and also for CM for releasing it via KZbin FOR FREE even if they surely could release this one as a regular DVD !!! Absolutely great stuff guys....Thank you....And hopefully see you on tour in Germany again with your new album !!!

[@geirbergersen5567]

Have you seen this one? Another good Norwegian band kzbin.info/www/bejne/hpu2pIFsrM-nerc

[@michaelheck6919]

@@esotericschizochad3664 absolutely! I've had the pleasure to see Pagan's Mind on tour with Symphony X a few years back! 🙂

[@gamerhardcore9449]

Algo que admiro nesta banda que não comete o erro de tentar ser Dream Theater, eles bebem sim da fonte, mas fazendo seu próprio som, sua própria alma, sua própria musicalidade. Banda TOP!

[@joaomarcelovanacorbretanha1706]

Eu arrisco dizer que eles fizeram em 3 álbuns o que o Dream Theater fez da década de 80 até o ADToE. Edit 1: acho que até o álbum homônimo do DT

[@kgn8559]

Só que o Michael canta melhor que o Labrie!!! Kkkk, ao meu ver pelo menos.

[@PietroKrausen]

@@kgn8559 considere a idade de ambos

[@WillyDantas]

O Circus Maximus trabalha as melodias de forma mais brilhante. O Dream Theater compõe de forma mais mecanizada, enquanto que o Circus você percebe que tem mais alma. Cada um com sua genialidade. No álbum Isolate tem uma canção que pude perceber influência direta de Genesis, em outra canção pude perceber algo muito na linguagem do HammerFall. Enfim, todos tem suas influências e o interessante é poder então construir sua própria identidade.

[@M4R10_]

🤔 acho q eh uma mera coincidência! Essa banda ta muitoooo mais pra metal melodic/ power metal do que DT. as vezes lembra θ SEVENTH WONDER. mas realmente prum show ao vivo dessa magnitude, esse timbre de guitarra TA muito massa! Impressionante! a qualidade desse show ta muito massa. eu conheci essa banda a partir de uma entrevista do Jesse Cash da banda ERRA! CM n eh meu estilo favorito. Tenho 37 anos ouço música desde os 8 anos em 1996. De la pra ca ja descobri muita coisa ε tmb já deixei de gostar da grande maioria. hj me concentro ouvindo coisas novas ε pouco. Convencionais, pra ser sincero, bandas como metallica, PF , IM, rush , ε essas tradicionais simplesmente n mais ouço. hj gosto de bandas como: Erra, Novelist, Εbonivory, City state, ε 🤘🏼θ metal core como estilo preferido. As vezes a gente cai em flashback ninguém eh de ferro❗️ 😂

[@Kuutamo13]

Found this band today. I'm truly in love.

[@GRILLBUOY101]

oh wow good for you get the first chapter by far the best cd ever. i love it much more than the others but the others are good 2,isolate has some great tunes on it but first chapter is on another planet of high priestess.lol

[@GRILLBUOY101]

type in circ us maximus haunted dreams its an amazing song i absolutely go cray cray for that 1, peece

[@bunnlose]

and some find it is!

[@redsed1565]

This is the best band and to ever exist!

[@nolituh]

This band is the Dream Theater from the new generation. Is my top 3 new progressive bands from the new generation. Circus Maximus, DGM and Teramaze.

[@bradlyferrell9122]

It's like Dream Theater had a baby with Slayer. Lol These guys are amazing! Every album is superior quality. Humble guys with super talent! Have loved these guys for years! And never forget..THIS IS LIVE! SO GOOD!!!

[@taylormzalewski]

i cant tell you how refreshing it is to hear a band that sounds just like their recordings. Saying that, been listening to a band called "work of art" lately, that how in the world did they not get popular. Circus Maximus is as close to dream theater as possible, not replicating them, just the same idea

[@geirbergersen5567]

Have you seen this one? Another good Norwegian band kzbin.info/www/bejne/hpu2pIFsrM-nerc

[@megamanxx69]

For god sake guys, didn't you realize how many latin american fans are claiming a little visit in our lands?... come on, and give us the the opportunity to enjoy a show of this quality!, believe me, you will never see a crowd so freaking loud and crazy like us! Por la rechucha!!

[@danieltorkildsen]

CM would love to go to South America, and it may be happening sooner rather than later. Watch out ;) Daniel

[@AngeloStazzi]

***** believe me, Chile and South America is waiting for Circus Maximus since The First Chapter :)

[@michielleijzer8189]

It's both motivating and demotivating to see Mats Haugen play. On one hand it makes me want to fling my guitar in the nearby river and on the other hand it's so inspiring that I pick up the axe again to write music. What a great player!

[@santxz5556]

Man it feels great to have the privilege of listening such a great band like this

[@Nico8DS]

So many memories.. wonderful band🙌

[@TheVoltrom]

[@gigidy5]

The brief screaming in Nameste was fucking fantastic. Wish the album had that version.

[@undiscoveredsoul7ify]

One of the best progressive metal rock bands in Europe nowadays. You have the powerful, the energy and amazing inspiration to enjoy us. Thanks for this show and we will expect the best of you in the near future. We really miss a show in Spain so far....

[@MaresLora]

Wow! Fantastic show guys! I hope you see you soon in Colombia! Please please please!

[@JavierBustacara]

Yes! Colombia!

[@sebax6933]

YES COLOMBIA!

[@ximontrespalacios1257]

YEEEEEAAAAAAHHH!! Circus Maximus in Colombia!!!

[@danmurmorenomusic]

Mares Lora Awww que lindo que sueñes de esa manera chicaaaaaghh.. pero si hay un concierto de C.M en Colombia solo lo llenarán 100 o 150 gatos. No va ser rentable para ningún promotor :( Mucha gente ni siquiera sabe que existe la banda, o se aburren al escucharla.. A menos de que a la banda la metan en un festival tipo R.A.P o Altavoz o similares. Sin embargo seria increíble donde vinieran! circusmaximusband Amazing DVD!!! Amazing Band!!

Respect for my fellow countrymen; they always play with their hearts, souls and passion. They deserve more credit though.

[@redsed1565]

BEST CONCERT EVER!

[@jntdhome]

I have a special connection to this. I had a heart attach in 2014 and this was all I watched in the hospital. It kept my spirit soaring.

[@sopwithsnoopy8779]

Who else is watching during the COVID-19 pandemic? Stay safe, everyone.

[@charlesajones77]

Same. I just happened to find this at 4am. Been awhile since I last heard CM.

[@hiredgunsg6178]

This band is just so fuckn awesome! Everyone knows how to play their instruments! The guitarist uses techniques like pinched harmonics, the singer sounds perfect and so natural! The drummer sounds so good as backing vocals! The pianist is just superb! You all just perfect! Don't ever stop!

[@2979paul]

Just found you guys love it from the USA

[@lorenzopaganotti]

there´s about 3 yrs or more without listening to CM, and then I found this INCREDIBLE PERFORMANCE. No words to explain how happy I got after watching it! What a huge show! they kicked ass Perhaps that was too short for a real CM Experience, haven´t find songs like Glory of The Empire, Ultimate Sacrifice, Wither and also the instrumental ones like Sane no More and Biosfear on their setlist devalue their work... I´m a big fan! Just loved the concert ! Thanks guys! come to Brazil for god sake!!!

[@t14o180t]

素晴らしいバンド！　音楽を芸術にまで昇華させられるバンドだと思う。

[@VictorNG108]

This is simply amazing! I'm so happy for this video coming out. Nearly came when they played "Arrival of Love" and "Abyss." Never delete this video! Keep it on KZbin forever! If this somehow gets removed or placed as "unavailable in your country," I think I may just die haha. Thank you so much, Circus Maximus! I'll treasure this forever.

[@famineo]

They seem to be nice and humble guys! "Last Goodbye" probably has one of the best guitar intro ever. Full of inspiration and feeling. "Game of Life", no comments! This song will remain forever, with its lyrics, melodies and reflections of the big game called life. Thanks for sharing!

[@fireinthepentagram]

Finally! I'm amazed you guys did this even before Symphony X! Thanks for doing it, you guys are a special great band.

[@goxy3803]

Glad this band has a video with more than 650k views. I love their songs but the band was never too popular

[@bradlyferrell9122]

Right?? I share this video every chance i get. Amazing talent!

[@DonCarnage42]

Simply an awesome concert and true to japanese standards, great, great sound engineering on this recording. Miss these guys, and hoping for a cool new album here in 2024!

[@Tocametalheart]

One word. Underrated.

[@johnhahn1877]

KILLER talented band with great chops and writing skills!!! The sound is such a great mix of melody, power and ridiculous technical playing. Each member adds a great layer to each tune! They explode on every tune when combined!! Downside...not enough people are exposed to this great music!!

[@drummerwinger]

Best Band of the world. Keep on playing. You are so awesome .

[@sebax6933]

No man! You guys should have played Architect of Fortune, Used, The 1st Chapter and also Burn after Reading!

[@RoddSantiago]

They only had 40 minutes, thats why they chose short songs, the setlist is good imo.

[@josie1776]

Sebax's songlist fits perfectly the fourty minutes.

[@EyeInTheSky982]

Just found this video tonight. I loved CM's "Isolate" album; and OMG this show is fire 🔥. The band is firing on all cylinders here. Amazing. 😁😁

[@BridoTube]

This is wonderful ! You guys are really full of surprises, putting the whole live for free on KZbin really is a classy move from you :) Sadly, I discovered your band too recently to come to one of your show, I won't miss you on your next tour !

[@guillaumeerard]

Next time they come to Japan, I am so going to see them!

[@V3ntilator]

I have seen them 2 times. They had their 10th Anniversary in my hometown may 2015. Pellek and the voice of Withem were also vocal guests. :)

[@chexlemeneux3484]

Michael Eriksen's vocals reminds me of the band Kamelot, and he actually did vocals for Kamelot in live shows (ProgPower USA XI).

[@chexlemeneux3484]

***** Khan i guess, since he's the one mostly associated with the band when we think about Kamelot.

[@anibalhernandez2479]

I thinks Mikes voice is one of the best in the business. But Khan is the gold standard of perfection.

[@sebjulien3]

Khan +1000...sadly he is singing in a church choir now... he should go back to prog metal and change the lyrics, I wouldn't mind hearing christian lyrics like Vandenplas, as long as it sound like Epica or Black halo

[@daanvdwielen8760]

@Seb Julien, I completely agree with you there! It's the same with work like Neal Morse's, the lyrics aren't my cup of tea but the music is amazing. Khan is one of my fav singers of all time and the Kamelot sound from the Black Halo era is about perfect to me. Karevik is a great singer too though, on his first Kamelot record the original sound was very well maintained. Thus more from Khan in this style would be welcome anytime. Circus Maximus, thank you for this live recording!

[@DaniVegaIng]

Amazing, I just discovered this great band and it's one of my favorites already!

[@Ricardo3c]

Show impecável! Prog de excelente qualidade! Perfeito! excelente escolha de setlist!

[@jamespyngrope77]

The way he sings, i can really feel his voice just fills the songs with amazing melodies..

[@shaunkara]

Apparently he was deathly sick during the concert. He suffered very bad food poisoning and barely managed to get any rest during the trip. To pull off such a perfect performance in such a nightmarish state of health is absolutely unbelievable.
