Converge | Outbreak Fest 2023

[@ChrisSandersonAudio]

Huge privilege and honour to mix this 🙏

[@Janno85]

what a great job you did there! incredible mix!

[@kanegarner3468]

Honestly, you deserve beers for life for this mix, it sounds as apocalyptic as it did on the night. What a set!!

[@Uselessmineral]

You did an amazing job. Banger Mix!!! ❤

[@iurimartins4860]

Well done!

[@shaba011]

good job bro! sounds really good

[@fantasyh]

Kurt looks like a slightly rotund dad that came to the show with his kid, somehow wandered onto the stage and thought "yeah, I played a bit in high school, I can have some fun here". And then proceeded to melt faces and shatter colons

[@km606x]

they all are

[@duhlike]

That's what's so sick about Kurt. He literally is a genius an ex biomedical engineer who specialized in stent grafts. Looking at him you would never know that he is one of the best and most creative guitar players in the world of metallic hardcore

No new tracks. I was hoping for some teasers...

[@churroinyomouf]

Ogs fucking killing it. Influenced many bands with their style and unique vocals to boot.

[@CH-ml4rz]

Thank you!

[@zackp1717]

​@alexunderros they aren't ready yet. Converge is such a deliberate band with how they release music. The longer they cook, the better it'll be.

[@VELVETGUCC]

Jane doe needs a Grammy that shit influenced so many

[@tomvideira]

Just gotta say thank you so much to Jacob Bannon for letting me go crazy on the mic during Homewrecker. That song changed my life when I first heard it 15 years ago, and it's got me through so many tough times over the years. It was an absolute dream come true to get to sing it, let alone in front of so many people. Won't ever forget this moment. Converge and Outbreak Fest 4 LYF. 🔥🖤🔥

[@dj_yaromirr]

🔥🔥🔥 amazing experience bro you killed it

[@Nice_Fella]

huge vibe! loved it mate!

[@A1vin505]

The fan that did the scream at 13:35 is a legend. It was perfect

[@jackcravford8744]

That sounds LITERALLY like any scream from Jane Doe with that high pitch. Dude killed it!

[@skitliv]

Yes! I think Bannon liked it too, I spied a smile :)

[@JET7C0]

Haha - right! I was just about to timestamp that in the comments if no one else did, but here it is. Absolutely classic and the fact that Jacob let him do it (with a smile too) is so great. Love bands that allow a little fan interaction with themselves/the stage (within reason of course).

You can't really figure them out, but Jon and Anthony from Vein came out for the last part of The Saddest Day, sweet full circle moment

That added diving stage in front of the playing stage is such a good idea

never seen that before thats cool

I was thinking the exact same thing. Genius.

Shout outs to the dude who took the mic in homewrecker. Sounded sick at the time, sounds amazing in the vid! What a moment.......

[@rolandog4282]

ALWAYS AND FORVER THE HARDCORE GOATS.

[@isaacshrum5642]

In the myriad of bands and extreme music, Converge exists as a unique entity unto themselves, blending pain, anger, aggression, love, energy and emotion unlike any other band. Always innovating, evolving, and pushing boundaries, all while staying true and loyal to themselves. The fact that they’ve done this across the decades and are STILL the pinnacle despite fads and trends is a testament of creativity, passion and devotion to their craft. Stunning and inspirational.

This is the video and audio quality that Converge (and all the other artists at Outbreak) deserve!

[@Bleepbloop123]

They ain’t afraid to do them close ups n show love to all the members which festivals suck at

[@Nemo71340]

I'm almost 40 so I dont get to go to many shows anymore, but I always go see converge in Boston when they play. I think I've seen them 40 times by now.

[@goskateboarding1412]

[@_D_E_N_N_I_S_]

This may be the best converge set on KZbin

[@armandoarrojo9841]

It is

[@wulfgaen5888]

The vein guys in the back is so awesome to see

[@humandignitybloc23]

Man, I remember seeing this band at small venues decades ago and they still bring it with the exact same level of ferocity. It's truly insane, a pinnacle of endurance and excellence for aggressive music worldwide. Generational talent.

[@tink06tinker]

Same here, it makes me so happy to see them being this huge. This set was unbelievable to witness.

[@GarrettXPrime]

whoever did the sound deserves a raise great job

[@ChrisSandersonAudio]

Thanks man 🙏

Homewrecker is still one of my favorite songs and was such a chaotic part of of my music formative years. Over 20 years later, STILL SLAPS

[@JacquiPenar]

Converge is Hardcore, Hardcore is Converge.

[@billyjackoff]

Still one of the most innovative, interesting, and influential bands in aggressive music. Just decades of absolute brilliance.

[@kanegarner3468]

I mean, Bane are great but imagine following that 🥵 Converge and Death Grips were the sets of the weekend. Hands down!
