Electric Wizard - Funeralopolis

Electric Wizard live at Roskilde FESTIVAL 2014. Arena Stage, Thursday 3 July.

[@SoChilledOutGuy]

I bet when the song ended the drummer was like “hey let’s do funeralopolis next!”

Timothy Quinn Me too!! I was just thinking that!! Wtf??! HOW?? :D this consoles me it is possible after all to do hard/mental tasks even when baked :) B-|

[@Gio_is_gay]

It’s easier when stoned lol

[@Antenna_to_Heaven]

K E K NO, it is not. You have to be mentally VERY focused on playing anything; guitar, drums.. Drums especially, since if he misses a beat, you hear it right away(except you're that kind of people who come to concert but don't actually hear a tone or notice bad sound, they come cause it's cool music - I've met those), and if drummer slows down or speed up even for 0,01 sec, you also hear that right away - and the rest of the band(instruments) has to follow him. *Remember some bands who speed up live, and discography version is way slower* . *That's* why it's a skill to be this good at playing while baked.

[@ImperatorGrausam]

I was wondering how the drummer could still keep rhythm being that high, but then I remembered: this is doom metal.

[@WakizashiSabre]

Google who he is. PhD and other titles, 30 years of experience in music.

[@zachevans9165]

Nobody else noticed that they changed a bunch of notes to make it sound more triumphant instead of depressing?

[@smallman9787]

Yeah, they played the whole thing a fifth higher and used octaves instead of bends, and then the riff at the end they made a gallop instead of a downward spiral.

[@matiasdeespadas486]

I think they're just saying he looks high as fuck, which he probably was(and still is).

[@dbateman]

This music should never be played during daylight.

[@Antenna_to_Heaven]

dbateman Very wrong. I like to jam these kind of stuff along with Black Sabbath and such in the sunny spring/summer afternoons while resting after lunch with or without a bong. Neighbours enjoy it.

[@stonerdrums]

Agreed. Some bands, and certain songs should be played at night. I can remember in the 90s I seen Type O Negative at an outside venue and they played the 5 o'clock slot. It was so wrong.

[@dadtasticskills3948]

Lol!!!!

[@MrRaptormatt]

Maybe dawn...sun just rising

[@roadhauled7826]

I know! I was disgusted when they changed camera angle and i saw sunlight hahaha

[@dibbsalmighty]

I've watched this a few hundred times. It's one of my favorite live jams. I've determined that the inconsistencies in timing & tempo - to my great surprise - wasn't so much the drummer (who clearly spent the whole set being tickled by unicorns on an exo-planet somewhere) but the guitars rushing at parts. I'm not knocking any of it, their sound kicks ass and I wanna be that drummer just once in my life

[@camronchlarson3767]

Exactly! Everyone's talking about how they managed to keep a consistent tempo and I'm like 'am I listening to the same song?' cause they definitely don't stay at the same tempo they started lol

[@cool_sword]

@@camronchlarson3767 it's normal to speed up and slow down if you're not playing to a click though. The drummer is doing an incredibly good job for being so fucked lol

[@jacobcousins4234]

QueefJuiceOverflow as topger said, practice. I have pretty much smoked myself retarded, and I can jam out in time perfectly while absolutely flying, but it just takes practice

[@Antenna_to_Heaven]

Jacob Cousins Congratulations! It's a huge skill. Hats down.

[@HexYzeE]

this is stoner music guys

[@videocakes]

The timing of transitions and knowing when different riffs come for this band astonishes me. It may seem like just a long jam fest but they are hitting every transition on time together and it happens for the whole 9 minutes. These guys can rock out. Props

[@montaguehorseposture6203]

I would give you an upvote but your current count is "69" and Jus is wearing that on his jacket

[@haunted4life..]

U get it

[@chairmanbunker4418]

I'm a fan but it should be expected that a band is able to transition on time. A band that misses transitions should not be performing especially when playing music as simple as this. They nailed it tho.

[@akwilson1676]

​@@chairmanbunker4418Yeah but they're playing the same riff like 5 minutes and probably high as fuck

[@nickcirillo6191]

[@itookallthenames]

The riffs so good you have to wait 3 minutes for it

[@nicoguarini28]

Been playing guitar and burning the sacred herb for 25 years. I've learned Weed doesn't make you play any better.What it does do, is make you feel the music more, which is better for improvisation and listening to and playing off each other. And nothing is better for getting the creative juices flowing for new ideas. God bless u Mary Jane!!!

[@speciallyabled]

Yeah i jammed with my band high and it just felt right like I was one with the music and it made the jam sesh so much better

[@magemega4262]

Same goes for a lot of drugs... Amphetamines and other stims don't make you a better song writer it just makes you write more... Heroin doesn't make your music deeper it just usually comes alongside a really awful time in your life giving you an ability to emote musically you otherwise wouldn't be able to do sober... Marijuana and psychedelics though, like you said, make collaborating and "feeling the synergy around you" so much more intuitive. It's amazing how much better I can improv and stay in time and almost psychically read my band mates next move when high lol...

[@nvjohansson9741]

It makes me feel like I'm playing better

[@scottlosey4978]

I am, admittedly, new to the "Wizard" ...... an old school thrash fan with roots in Sabbath, Maiden, Kiss, etc. Seems that the daughter of an opera singer provides a different vibe when compared to pre "Liz" Wizard. I welcome all comments in terms of whether my intuitions are correct. Seems that her addition to Jus has alienated many early Wizard followers?

[@rebeccabailey527]

Or it could any alienation could just be from a lot of men who still believe metal is a hyper masculine form of music, and a woman with a guitar is a threat. The same sort of thing happened to Angela gossow nearly 20 years ago, when she joined arch enemy. She was far better than their old singer johan liiva, but for years in every comment section of every arch enemy video, it was just filled with loads of very disgusting and hateful comments, and it all came down to she was a woman.

Awesome quality video!!! You can actually hear Jus’s vocals really loud and clear in the mix. Sometimes they get buried in th mix. The guitars are so full and clear as well! The 61 SG reissue in the super deep cherry finish with the Maestro Vibrola Tremelo arm and the 72 SG with the Les Paul pickguard and a half moon guard around the knobs. They are my two all time favorite SG’s 1st and 2nd respectively!!! And tied for all time favorite guitar w/ the 59 Les Paul and a Gretsch White Falcon!!!! #JusOborneForPresident #LizBuckinghamForFirstLady #ElectricWizardRulesTheGalaxyOnTheSideOfMyFrickinHouse #KingAndQueenOfDoom #BassAndDrumsKill’nItWithTheMegaHeavyGrooveInThePocketForTheWin But on a serious note the bass is so booming playing the perfect groove and the drums like what can you say?
