Intronaut plays live, Killing Birds With Stones on EMGtv

[@kaseyporter2215]

I'm actually a bit surprised to hear people disliking the vocals. They're very organic and raw unlike many modern bands' vocals and they're quite well done. This video also proves that they have no problem pulling them off and getting their voices to mesh together well live. I like it a lot!

[@OrpheusVA]

+Kasey Porter people tend to like being spoon fed with only the cleanest, clearest vocals... which is weird to me, since this is metal, and you know, like you said, organic and raw is its' thing.

[@frankbrazil7918]

the vocals for the most part are too sucky for the heavy backdrop. ill deal with the vocals but im not excited about them. this drummer is off the hook though!

[@PCPAyLOAD]

+Frank Brazil Yeah,,,, completely disagree. They are what they are and its beautiful. It makes them unique.

[@frankbrazil7918]

+Dr. Poogobbler i take it back. ive gotten used to it. the vocals actually back the song not the other way around. killer hooks.

[@samuelsantos-bu3xy]

it's not that they suck, it's that every part they sing in most of the songs sounds exactly the same. so for me it tends to get boring

[@TheJohnGway]

Fucking incredible band.

[@BobrLovr]

+TheJohnGway I wouldn't say incredible, inoffensive yes, incredible, nah. Zappa is incredible.

[@TheJohnGway]

Aye! Zappa is incredible! Though I do enjoy these guys quite a lot, surely incredible to me.

[@jpt1134]

+TheJohnGway For sure incredible. See them live for sure.

[@TheJohnGway]

+Jordan Thaler I actually have with BTBAM a few months ago in Toronto. They were sick as fuck! I was front bar so I got to see n hear everything perfect.

[@mokodo_]

ridiculously underrated musicians, i really hope they get a break someday

[@gianlucacabria925]

Still ridicously under-rated. Shame.

[@Nickraculous]

STILL ridiculously underrated

[@meatball707]

The best part is the guitarist makes his own guitars now! They’re amazing, Dunable Guitars! The one that’s in the back against the wall is one of his. Was in the one guitarist hands at first, then it was sent to the corner.

[@Coryiodine]

They're also douches in real life so I don't mind. besides the bassist Joe Lester. He's cool af

[@davidaraya4092]

Ridículo es tu comentario ,tocan muy bien sus instrumentos ,aunque no me gustó su canción, el arte es subjetivo

[@Svagtpositiv]

top 10 intro drum fills of all time

[@6sentient]

movement starting at 02:33 is musical perfection.it has groove,ambient,feel,melody and catchiness.oh,and the most legendary bass fucking sound EVER.

[@vicegirlsusa]

The tone he gets on that bass is incredible. I wish I knew the secret to it.

[@ZodiacMeatgrinder]

id say its the amp, for bass guitar you need the sound of a tube amp. all the nicely compressed tight low end and movement in the room comes from the tubes. check ampeg-amps if you are searching for some high quality stuff.

[@ChristopherRoss.]

+ZodiacMeatgrinder I disagree. Not that tubes sound bad, but the best sounding amp I've ever heard is the GK2001RB, a tubeless amp. With bass (because its rare that you overdrive it through the amp--at least in my experience), the characteristics of the head (tube vs diode, for example) are less staggering than on a guitar head. Each have their pros and cons, but neither is the "only viable choice", so to speak.

[@ChristopherRoss.]

+VICEGIRLS And to answer your question, I think the main ingredient to his tone is that he's playing a fretless. They tend to have that sound to them. The pickups and amp head will also play into the tone shape to a lesser degree.

[@Kathayne636]

+VICEGIRLS The secret is that it's fretless and he doesn't mid scoop.

[@thedudefromnowhere]

✨️fretless✨️

[@jasonnorkeveck4797]

Mad respect for these guys. fabulous musician ship. and i cant believe they can sing and play those confusing rhythms at the same time! so good

[@meatbagAZ]

I still love this band so much

[@Drew.DrivesYT]

Everybody needs to experience this band live. On mushrooms.

[@Shevanelcutabitch]

Ozma2112 yes Bro!

[@111usul]

last thing I would do on shrooms is go listen a concert

[@imbroglio970]

Fuck yes my dude. Last concert before quarantine was Devin Townsend, Haken, Contortionist and golden teachers \m/

[@o_Toman]

@@imbroglio970 Im seeing Haken and Between the buried and Me on February on my birthday. Lucky me. Hail the prog.

[@daverlb]

Discovered these guys today!!! Unreal!!

[@jatza07]

Yes!!! I have this song in loop for last three days . It is mind blowing

[@MultiCynicism]

Danny Walker is hands down one of the most epic prog drummers :)

[@elahem6940]

Just found these guys and I love it! I hear a lot of 80s King Crimson in their sound

[@mauricioribeiro3547]

the song which opens one of the most amazing albums I've heard. I'm happy to know and listen to these guys. Greetings from Brazil

[@qshoots_808]

The drummer is amazing

[@raffertyrulez438]

damn this is a huge bass sound

[@TheUmart]

about band not being very active during this performance,just try yourself to play this complicated song in one take,without even one error.stellar performance guys!!!!

[@ChefShamsher]

these guys are freaking titans of music, it is hard to pull of songs like these live

[@witchbvrner]

11 years later and I still come back here to listen to that solo from Sacha around 3:14 Nothing flashy, but it's one of my all time favorite phrases he's ever done in this band.

[@ChopSueySundays]

One of my all time fav songs, this performance never ages

[@Gonko100]

Absolutely flawless, extremely elegant, almost perfect progrock. Bravo

[@abdullaalmarri4562]

This has to be one of the best melody my ears have ever digested.

[@TheJwarrior16]

Habitual Levitations is a masterpiece! what a trip!

[@darthpunk5455]

Just please come to Australia, we deserve you.

[@martialmusicman]

The two guitarists may not be the best pure singers, but the band is tight and unique, and the vocal parts are well-written and executed for what the vocalists' abilities are.

[@Kathayne636]

Exactly. They aren't overreaching.

[@JediMobius]

I think it fits the music very well. Much less aggressive than their earlier stuff, vocally, too.

[@llKoopav2ll]

sonic slaughter That comment is fair and i agree. Many people have to understand that like 90% of the musicians in the field of extreme metal are first and foremost instrumentalists as which they also started and not singers. Intronaut and Mastodon are a very good example of that.

[@LordLuc94]

@@llKoopav2ll Although Mastodon's talented drummer(!!) could have purely been a singer too. Talented singer.

[@imadrumbass]

The drummer has so much groove. A huge addition to their music.

[@KalebBirdsong]

How am I just now finding out about these guys? So good!

[@skanka4646]

I bought their album Void on a whim and they have been one of my favourite bands ever since. Incredible band

[@ReinZ_96]

Reminds me a little bit of The Ocean...dig it :D

[@remileclair]

Tool meets the Ocean, hehehe. Going to see The Ocean on Saturday, so pumped!

[@tstochuj]

now that you mentioned it, it does sound like The Ocean at times

[@MTSpade]

The Ocean?? wtf, they sound NOTHING like them, and tool, gtfo

[@TheGuitarifier]

@@MTSpade you're a fucking idiot. They play the same brand of metal as the ocean. And there is DEFINITELY tool influence. Most prog these days has some tool influence. You dumb or just stupid?

[@MongolianAutobot]

@@remileclair nice, I love the ocean.

[@spacemanbose]

amazing volcals. amazing music

[@Grumplestilskinn]

best band around.

[@trohan6415]

Scale the Summit........

Nah :D

[@Karbz_]

they got a freaking amasingly talented drummer, really knows what he is doing, he allways steps outside the box

[@FreddieMaranzano]

A really great performance.

[@MapleLeafs96]

Discovered this band a year back..ever since that I’m hooked

[@Marshallstack3203]

Haven't heard of them until that first EMG TV video. Really diggin' these dudes.

[@connedwards7030]

Vocals are phenomenal, band is cosmic.

[@ChegzGT1EB]

Their drummer is fantastic, really tasteful grooves

[@megazaider1051]

Brilliant, very groovy. Fantastic I love you guys

Im gonna see these guys alive next december, they may not play this awesome song but im still excited

[@josephclerici]

"Danny Walker: Drums" And how!

[@NYPATRIOTBX]

Awesome band

[@gbr_hrvth]

I N T R O N A U T - come to Hungary. ...and have a nice trip!

[@darthpunk5455]

This is ridiculously good.

[@mpclark31]

Simply amazing!

[@brothermanv]

Fantastic. I enjoy seeing/live arrangements that are close to the record

[@LautloseLebwerwurst3000]

I adore Sacha's vocals on this one! They're both good singers and the band altogerther ist just insane, but on this one, I think Sacha's vocals sound very special and differebnt from anything else I heard - maybe you could call it a "bluesy growl" or so?

[@BoBz013]

i love the dynamics at the end fading out :)

[@readonly999]

they are Intronauts. each member plays in his own bubble, completely engulfed by the music.

[@LordLuc94]

And still it's all in synch.. impressive..

[@turbomustang84]

I love this band........fantastic live

[@londonhardcorekid]

I fucking love the part right at 2:34. That riff is fucking awesome and then when the bass and drums come in it's absolutely heavenly.

[@rgspadafora]

Wow now this is music. Amazing

[@AnwayPramanik]

Wow, now I regret missing them live in Bangalore

[@ChildOfKos]

listening to this for the first time now.. can't tell what took me so long! I love it, some of the riffs sound a lot like Mastodon to me. Guess i have to buy some records now!

[@ForeverInBetweenBand]

wow love the vocals.

[@jesselough]

NICE performance. So stoked to see these guys soon, and EMG, more full band performances like this! It all sounds so damn good!

[@Flokker]

The insinuations that every single prog band is TOOL influenced has been old before it even started. I'm just going to say that TOOL is very mozart influenced.

[@remileclair]

Except... you know... it's probably true for a lot of post-2000 bands that sound like this. :-P

[@bryangluce]

I don't know who you've been listening to, as far as people's "insinuations". But I don't hear anyone referencing Tool as an influential part of their music. Don't worry or give a shit about what other people say. If anyone were to say that to me I wouldn't say anything but just shake my head in disdain at how arrogant, ignorant and stupid that person is for saying such things. Plus if Tool was an influence in Intronaut's music why does that matter? Tool is and always will be incredibly fucking badass. Why not be influenced by greatness?

[@JediMobius]

Lol. I love that! But yeah, people will compare anything rhythmically different to Tool if it lives anywhere outside of the 4-4 time signature, as if Tool invented syncopation. Blame radio.

[@matthewhurley4455]

Tool actually lifted a lot of their shit from King Crimsons album "Red". And don't get me wrong Tool was the band that got me into this type of music, but just saying, nothing is really original and hardcore Tool fans who think every other remotely similar band ripped them off need to learn that.

[@bryangluce]

I love the beginning of this song. Trippy time signature.

[@Blood_fog]

It's actually in 3/4. But the drums are playing a polyrhythm.

[@diegoheco]

The vocals have been improved in the last album, and that's fucking awesome

[@Soullateralus1]

I Love This Song And This Band!!!

[@Bernsong]

They are amazing

[@fcampoyq]

Awesome! Come to Japan!

[@marcelotorres3285]

I get goose bumps every. time.

[@Connormkay]

I would like a live version like this of all their songs!

[@michelelebelle]

Good stuff here~ They are awesome.

[@x_hunter00]

Just discovered another new band because I'm going to a Between the Buried and Me Concert!! ;D

[@Masdylon]

Check out deafheaven too. Another band I'm looking forward to see on the tour, but completely different from these guys.

[@ofdiscord]

REALLY digging this drummer's work. Not sure exactly why but he really stands out to me.

[@Beaver1969]

Because he's amazing?

[@SarkagianGaribaldian]

His name is Danny Walker, he's also part of a grindcore band called Murder Construct.

[@skalamaz3]

Pure greatness. Got to see them perform the songs off this album in 2013 and they were amazing and very loud. Those Mesa amps with Gibsons don't play.

[@InfestedCheetah]

So good! Love it.

[@KINGD0RKtheFIRST]

I think I may have just found my favorite band ever... :'3

[@jackpaice]

cool stuff!

[@adrianoa.j.5788]

Dude, the guy even plays with a fretless bass, just insane!

[@alvarovicenteguardiola5175]

tool meets mastadon kinda

[@spacemanchriss]

Eh.. Yeah... Kinda.... Ok

[@alexd2227]

My thoughts exactly. They're fucking incredible.

[@sadstatue25]

I say they are the metal Pinback.

[@progmetxlr8639]

these guys are awsome!

[@MTSpade]

These guys have been one of my fav bands ever since they opened for Mastodon(another fav band) on their Crack the Skye tour, its impossible not to love everything they do, theyre all so fucking talented, but I love this song especially, they were great doing metal vocals, but this song proves they can be amazing even when they tone it back and do something different, I actually kind of prefer it

[@daviddevilliers2828]

Excellent

[@rnemchev]

Bravo!!!

[@spacemanbose]

this song is amazing

[@MultiCynicism]

I felt nothing for Intronaut until I heard Valley Of Smoke then I feel Inlove :) And now mylove has deepened after this song :)

[@chrisrinehart4008]

Saw these guys live with Between the buried and me in El Paso. I had known nothing about them and they really blew me away.

[@Mgonzaa52]

I’m from el paso too i was unaware they ever came here, let alone with BTBAM when was this? I discovered intronaut probably around 2016-2017

[@chrisrinehart4008]

​@@Mgonzaa52this was in 2016. Probably early too mid 2016. I left El Paso November of 2016 if I remember right

[@Charlizarate]

great band

[@Kalavinka623]

saw these guys play live in Austin and it was a fucking masterclass.

[@NenedzhyanStudios]

First time I've seen Sacha without his signature brand. At the show I went to, he didn't swap out his Dunable once. Sounds cool w/ those EMGs on a Les Paul Custom 59'

[@Rlyhyne]

Most likely playing it because the Dunable guitars he’s got probably aren’t loaded with EMG’s, And this is an EMG video. Agreed though, sounds really good.

[@artybone6946]

The 4 minute mark its starts sounding really cool

[@readonly999]

Good god, they sound even better than on the record!
