Iced Earth - Travel In Stygian Live (Metal Camp Open Air 2008)

From Festivals Of The Wicked [DVD]

[@Imsuperapplepie]

jon schaffer is easily one of metal greatest rhythm guitarists

[@Pirustae]

No wonder he's Hetfield's son. Figuratively.

[@guitarchugs9191]

he IS the best

[@beefnacos6258]

@@Pirustae I hate to say it but I just found this band and I can already tell this guy has better riff work than James

[@lovroknezevic9114]

Dere guzove koliko je dobar 🤣🤣🤘🤘

[@incudust953]

@@beefnacos6258 and you can actually hear their bass guitars

[@SSironcrossSS]

Who needs coffee in the morning when you can play this song on your way to work.

[@zerpblerd5966]

indeed I don't drikn caffeeine, I listen to metal

[@roxGCstyle]

HOLY SHIT MATT BARLOW!

[@BaconBane]

he reminds me of the undertaker for some reason

[@therideroftheli]

Matt is amazing! He sings so accurately and ranges from depths of an abyss, to ear tearing shrieks... What a great vocalist and a soul.

[@MadMan4x4x4]

smedley is one hell of a drummer

[@ironmaidenCRO]

I really ❤ Smedley, Lombardo and Lopez from Opeth. Great drummers

[@thiagodaldegan]

It's impressive how Barlow can manage her voice, down and low, high and loud...I mean, we know he is a professional, but i can't hear him without feeling the power.

[@geoffhunter4744]

One of, if not the best, singers and bands I have ever heard live.

[@Shitinthemorning]

Then you missing alot :) They are great , but nothing campared next to Iron Maiden , Judas Priest

[@AndJusticeForEl]

His vocals are so fucking metal. It's the best live perfomance ever.

[@nosimeddemison]

The riffs in this song are amazing! Iced Earth is the best!!!

[@venturahxyz8088]

the drummer is a beast

[@johnstonedavis7704]

Dam right that's Brent smedley

[@daaazl8911]

So is Schaffer.. practicing this song too often gave me rsi 😂

[@zerpblerd5966]

one of the greatest drummers painfully underrated underappreciated Portnoy Smedley

[@Kerbalf]

5:35 and onwards is the reason I fucking LOVE Matt Barlow. That buildup and delivery is amazing.

[@War624]

5:59-6:10 Holy shit.....

[@agenfavo2903]

yeah that rage , freaking awesome

[@user-sp9ho6mw7e]

The hair poped out of my body!!!!!!

[@smashedbanana2012]

I listen to metal since 1988 and cannot remember such a stellar scream rendition live. Even the greats like Dickinson, Halford and Tate tone it down a bit compared to the studio recording since they have to do the whole show but here it is the opposite. He literally blew away Greely studio performance.

[@jackjamesgodsell9586]

5:58

[@djogopatrao]

the right hand work on rhythm guitars is simply amazing - I don't know how many hours I spent trying to achieve this speed - and failing.

[@simonlafrance4377]

Same thing, practicing again and again..............

[@AquilaStargazer39]

That guitar tone is just beautiful :')

[@oreldimple4097]

my favorite iced earth song Travel in Stygian

[@hshhhsbvd2554]

I know little to nothing about heavy metal but isn't this drummer just fucking INSANE

[@MarcoEsSanSivar]

that guys right arm is second to none! holy shit, a true riff master!

[@Fr33dom35]

Amazing build up, atmosphere and lyrics! Jon’s right hand is killer!

[@MrMethadrine]

Barlows perfomance is even better than their 1997 tour.Amazing..

[@heavymetalweatherman7774]

One of the best songs by this band. Still so epic after all these years!

[@zerpblerd5966]

yep, top 5

[@Chuloloc]

Awesome. An Iced Earth Classic. Matt dominates.

[@FilipeGDoria]

Schaffer + Barlow = RAMPAGE

[@DouglasDoring]

What a band man!!! Holy shit!!

[@leandrovazdeazevedo]

Essa banda nasceu classica

[@heavyaccept]

This live performance of the particular song is just f@cking EXCELLENT!!!

[@rugbyguitargod]

Jon Schaffer=best metal rhythm guitarist ever

[@johnkatsoudas4767]

Absolutely!! It is insane how amazing he plays the guitar.

[@bradrogers3033]

I wish we had big metal fest like this in the states

[@hulksmashhumans5766]

it would have all the american inbred country metal shit bands they already do have xD i am kinda happy americunts dont listen to metal. i woudl hate metal if these posers listened to it

[@RyderLComics]

@@hulksmashhumans5766 I mean you're actually right. It would promote bands that are way shittier

[@hulksmashhumans5766]

i always try to add a little bit of truth to the mix xD We have this shitty "metal' fest here in columbus called "rock on the range". it started pretty cool with megadeth and misfit type music, but now its litterally country rock , skater/emo shit, and trendies. I wanted to go see bullet for my valentine, but that was the heaviest band there and no way in fuckin hell was i gonna give my money to those other bands who would take 90% the cut from BFMV and me have to wait all day ina crowded joint , 3000 ft back from the stage just to see one slightly heavy but now sold out band xD.. Liek fuckin almost $100 a ticket per day was starting price, it was really trendy so it sold out fast too, to scalpers

[@RyderLComics]

@@hulksmashhumans5766 My point exactly, that's all American metal fests are nowadays. Europe has so much more diversity and appreciation that it makes people like us envious.

[@johnkatsoudas4767]

I agree with you!! I hated most of the bands that played on Ozzfest back in the late 90's- early 2000's. I wish there were bands like Gamma Ray, Helloween, Primal Fear, Masterplan, Stratovarius, Hammerfall, Blind Guardian, and Iced Earth on Ozzfest all those years. These are true METAL bands to me, not that Numetal crap that did get played on Ozzfest. Ozzy could have been a true hero and brought back real Heavy Metal if had these bands on his festival back then. These bands could have been huge here in the states.

[@nathalier.9082]

I Just discovered this band a few months ago through a friend...FUCK, I wish I knew of them when I was a teen in the 80's , WHAT a BAND!

[@Tibisayrp]

Esto es simplemente perfecto, grande Iced Earth y Matt Barlow brutal su poder de voz ...

[@marcelogalvao7387]

Fato

[@martinstaiger1813]

The only and truth metal God's!

[@murarucosty]

jon and matt they are unique!!!

[@tubandt84]

Night of the Stormrider and Burnt Offerings are just the best albums of Iced Earth.

[@incudust953]

i like something wicked this way comes and stormrider the most

[@Mysikrysa]

I don´t believe such a great band really exists! They are surely just a fantasy of my insane mind!

[@MarioParanhos-uz5ko]

Cara esse velho toca demais! Essas bases de guitarra e muito doidaa

[@andrewteslenko1098]

Wow, skills! Amazing song, live sound, musicianship and performance!

i felt bad that Matt Barlow left the band it really is a bummer to me

[@blasphemus666]

P

[@seanquertinmont2760]

Orel Dimple yea stu is good on the albums but he doesnt have the same power tim and barlow have

[@hulksmashhumans5766]

tim was pretty gay too. it cant be a power metal band without a woman on vocals. so pretty much the band died the second it went power metal

[@novaseer]

@@hulksmashhumans5766 "it cant be a power metal band without a woman on vocals" what kind of fucking logic is that, there's plenty of male-vocal power metal bands that kick ass

[@danasteele]

Orel Dimple I saw them live twice with Stu, he’s really good I’m not gonna lie, but in my opinion no one compares to Matt 😔

[@beyourbetterself777]

Johnny and matt all day

[@AntiComunaBR]

iced earth, metallica and iron maiden.... best imortal bands ever !

[@liveheavyshows]

Brent Smedley if one of my gods he is simply a beast, since Athens he deserve respect in the world of drumming.

one word: EPIC

By far my friend.

[@olgakari4053]

I love Jon Schafer

[@gyros9162]

Безумно рубят, мужики!!!!

[@arnett23me58]

It's so weird seeing Jon without his bandanna on.

[@dolmayer100]

sorry dude but the best live performance is Alive in athens dvd ..if u didnt checked it yet go check it and u gonna get amazed :)

[@n0i2]

it's not really live though

[@Aymungoos]

@@n0i2 audio is from 1 of the 2 shows they did there. videos were recorded for one and the audio for the live album from the other show and people just put the 2 together

[@vladkocharian2880]

Totally agree 😊

[@TribulationGuild]

@@Aymungoos They took audio from both days and mixed it together, but they also recorded over a lot of parts in the studio to cover some of the more "live" parts. They've talked about this a lot, but also you can see footage that aired on TV of the same show and it's very different sounding. Not saying they tricked anyone or anything, it's an amazing album, but they did punch a lot of it up in the studio.

[@Danyloww]

This is fantastic :)

[@OneofGray]

oh so satisfying.

[@lordmorgoth7]

know that feel bro

[@MrBradacc]

Schaffer el puto amo del riff!!!!

[@23schizo]

so true... melodic hetfield-like tightness with the speed of slayer sounds epic

[@Neilbear5820]

Jon Shaffer is a true American Hero.

[@SadamYT]

This video shows it clearly - Iced Earth without Barlow is like Queen without Freddie.

[@splatchrider]

I can pick as fast as him and yes its a combination of wrist and finger movement. Stormrider was the first album i ever learned front to back, in and out.

[@MrJarggo]

Oh damn you, Schaffer... I've been playing to the first 2,5 minutes of this song on my guitar and I've learned to master the intro - but that was the album versions... Coming here to watch the beast live version and I have no chances at the inro :/

[@GeoGrKa]

whata riff !!

[@marissaseales1180]

bad ass fucking song!!!

[@lexmarks567]

If Jon felt that troy couldn't cut the mustard im sure he would have been fired a long time ago. the fact he's still in the band means jon feels hes a worthy guitar player.

[@arimus4520]

+lexmarks567 True but I really think he could find someone better. Troy doesn't pick all the notes and it frustrates the hell out of me.

[@MichaelHolmgaard]

+lexmarks567 I never get why he kept Troy on board. he is a fine guitarist, but it's too obvious that he simply cannot play the more technical parts that his predecessors did -It's just so annoying :/

[@justinladwig9451]

jons a beast

[@dimisrov]

omfg o.O

[@titanm1980]

5:58 my throat hurts only for watching this part, awesome :)

[@sincek94]

Matt is a fucking legend....

[@MikeKarMusic]

We are drunk and screaming whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!

[@regzalbz2197]

Matt "Popeye" Barlow on vocals, amazing!

[@v_georgiev]

He's not using his wrist only. He also helps his picking making movements with his fingers, too.

[@BurntPerspective]

4:20 Epic!

[@Hidan270]

barlow you beast

[@davidsdamnutube]

Watch "I died for you" same show, it's live for sure

[@santsrp952]

The best band ever fuck 💓💓💓💓💓

[@RyderLComics]

Believe it or not I've grown to like this song more than Dante's Inferno. Sure one is longer and more technical but this song has way more emotion than the other. Plus it's more of a rager than Dante's Inferno.

[@MRHORNET]

Fucking masterpiece!

[@alexandrealexandre2147]

4:21 GOD MODE ACTIVATED

[@TheAggelosMETAL]

5:23 Barlow's brutal!!! \m/

[@ilmanmuutajamuutilma]

thats what she said

[@zonker400]

@xmetalbassx I bet we'd hate it if Schaeffer tried singing... and let's face it, he's basically a tribute artist to Steve Harris. Maiden fans find this material very comforting and familiar.

[@seanquertinmont2760]

one of iced earths more darker songs

[@MyGodfather96]
