Underoath - Desperate Times, Desperate Measures (MTV live 09-03-08)

underoath 2008 live

[@316Spooky]

I don't care if anyone says Aaron sounds "weak/tired" when he sings; the damn man hit's 2 cymbols, a snare, and a bass drum every 0.5 seconds.

[@BrandonChaunceyOfficial]

the mix is really dry and gated and he has a ton of built of energy here. And more like 0.2.5 seconds haha

[@marcotejada1498]

Thats such a stupid thing to say. Aaron hits hard as fuck and to think that amount of force should come with no strain or force in his vocals shows that these people know nothing about music.

[@lucascerdamusica]

I like it more here than the oficial track

[@danielefumi2493]

20 March 2020. Quarantine at home because of Covid19 and I'm Still here.

[@JackboyOC]

spencer is on fire

[@joshcore9871]

Back when MTV put good music on air

[@nickwick35]

Holy fuck they were all on their game in this one. One of the best performances they've ever done

[@felipeseniceros2734]

the crowd looks so scared

[@hafizalish]

best post hardcore band ever

[@cummywummy2896]

Hold on. I agree but I also think Thursday is significant and timeless

[@redemptiverevelation]

It’s not even close

[@camspivey1]

That's why he's a good key player. No one wants someone that just stands there the whole song...

[@robertwells1408]

This band is amazing

[@Dabomb1237]

Spencer is spot-on here.

[@malditoloko112]

Smosh guys in 3:09 ;) cool anthony and ian.

[@ives3572]

Ah, the good old days that I'd really love to go back to.

[@hobi_6697]

Same

[@tjbhawaii]

Like for Aaron

[@Redundance]

Honestly Underoath were pretty much everywhere they could appeal to audiences who didn't necessarily like "scream" really rather incredible i mean they're a grammy nominated post hardcore band

[@GuitarGuy22221]

xDDD Aaron is totally losing air when he sings in this song, it looks like he's playing some crazy stuff on the kit when he's singin xDD

[@RockyMountainWest13]

My god Spencer was on fucking fire that night I can’t help but nod my head with him. What a weak crowd

[@daltonkirkpatrick1680]

Sometimes MTV accidently puts good music on there network

[@gwtwband]

пиздонись у Аарона энергия прёт

[@PhoenixBardth]

The audio sounds like it was recorded by some bare wires and a dirty sock. Good job, MTV, stick to your teen moms and leave Underoath alone

[@DingleberrryDan]

.......5 years later, and you have yourself a very delayed, but very well-deserved "lol"

[@bongofury5924]

The LAST edgy presentation MTV had was Frank Zappa in 1982.....Sad but true

[@bryanbaez4412]

I think this is the best Spencer has ever sung this chorus

[@googleaccount-so1fl]

probably the best quality performance they've ever had.

[@Jackwrhavice]

Watch the australia live

[@TheBryanDrummond]

Ahhhh so good! Funny, you can see the keyboardist doing stuff but you can’t hear a damn thing

[@tyler4girlz]

Terrible soundman.

[@UnderoathStuff]

hahah I agree, and I do agree that he sounds better other times live, but he still sounds crazy good here

[@DreamCheaters]

post-hardcore

[@hayden5567]

Chris Farley on keyboard?

[@JeserNoob]

Bobitto Garcia *Chris Dudley a great versus a legend

[@spartans542]

@Luizhfox amen.

[@marcsfortaner]

Why does the keyboard guy acts like he is playing all the time .. There´s no keyboards on this song.

[@keanucarmean9843]

The crowd looks like they were expecting Taylor swift to come out

[@ctretbar93]

That crowd needs to get the thumbs out of their asses and get into that music!

[@artur1197]

lol smosh is at the crown at 3:09

[@Zebrasaur]

that's crazy

[@ohitsjustjohnny]

for being a five year old recording posted to youtube 3 years ago and only being available in 360p i think it sounds fairly decent, and I enjoyed it. It doesn't do Underøath a justice, but it certainly doesn't make em look band.

[@sarahmoify]

10 years ...holy shit

[@TheOLiVeRAR]

A boy brushed red... Living and this song are the shit

[@Luizhfox]

in my opinion the best hardcore band of the day

[@andybabb2410]

I totally agree!!

[@MrSkagkiller]

I'd like to see any of the people who say that try to do what he does haha

[@equisde8951]

Wow vocalista cleaner ❤😍

[@SimFootballFanatic]

I knew the lyrics to the song but I wasn't expecting his ME to be so loud that first time lol

[@Jayko337]

Sick performance, but i feel the lack of crowd energy kind of brought them down. It was literally just a bunch of kids with their cell phones out. WTF is wrong with the world? I'd be going crazy...

[@hearingaidguy6980]

i cannot stand the sound of the snare. absoultely horroid.

[@reverberator100]

a lot of keyboard/midi controllers in metal bands do that... watch a video of Crossfaith live. Whenever that guy doesnt have anything pressing to do he's jumping into the crowd, moshing, etc. trying to get the fans pumped

[@brendanlovesgridline]

alot of the time he plays like strings and stuff to make the songs sound fuller you can't really hear it in this video but it is more noticeable in other live videos. He isn't pretending.

[@VOZZIFY]

lol did they turn off the bass or sometihng

[@danieljakubovic2294]

Paul van Hutten sadly

[@arw4115]

Hell naw there no one like Dallas Taylor.. he’s screams we’re insane …

[@DanThornton01]

Why the fuck are the crowd just standing there with cameras? Headbang for fuck sake!

[@nic35761]

i tried aarons style of drumming ...my muscle size has doubled....its a workout....just sayin

[@hundredandonenames]

nearly every band sounds bad over recording equipment like this, they will sound 1000000x better live...

[@redemptiverevelation]

Who’s here in 2024?

[@tjbhawaii]

That's just chris. It's kind of his thing. Watch the video from when the sun sleeps

[@mannymartinez7455]

James= kick ass rhythm guitarist he doesn't have to go all crazy he's just in the pocket concentrating

[@ChristinaRedd]

Finally a sound guy who knows what He's doing! They sound pretty good here!

[@greatstuff605]

It's great that it's a full live performance!

[@Saccrifix]

@ShredableGuitar It's all about technique, and his technique is one of the most flawless ones I've seen.

[@camspivey1]

I would love to have been there and be the only guy freaking their shit in the crowd.

[@marcsfortaner]

@mjrupps yeah but he´s headbanging and acting like playing all the song

[@marcsfortaner]

not a critic just an opinion

[@derreckossas4951]

Dry mix

[@wondernerd2]

That guy on that sound board was going ham, it was kind of funny.

[@WhereOceansMeeet]

Probably the only good band that's been on MTV in the last decade?!

[@danyhxc666]

love it

[@alegria81092]

horrible crowd......

[@JesusSteven]

2:01 Huele a papel :v

[@dumtastic]

Haha WTF is this?

[@beriloaquam]

[@silentrockGAZETTE]

Ive seen better crowd in the orchestra with a seat

[@Waffnub]

Do you think anyone cares about such technicalities ?

[@MegaHeatdrive]

awesome aaron, how did you do that...? -miss him so much..

[@alexandermorreale9907]

These MTV canada performances are mixed horribly

[@peacexisxfree]

+Alex Morreale straight up, man. sounds like shit, and it's actually not underoath.

[@niclis]

I was just thinking it sounded pretty good, especially compared this Fuel TV one kzbin.info/www/bejne/gqG5en6FpNqjobM

[@Shamoart]

still the sound aint that good as it could be. :P

[@brendanlovesgridline]

James hasn't played with Underoath in about a year.

[@mjrupps]

He's involved the whole song. Criticism FAIL.

[@RonCecchetti]

omg this seeams so far in the past now

[@sjholmes101]

My opinion is that Dance Gavin Dance is... lol

[@Bishp25]

mtv actually has some good bands playing for once

[@bassplayer773]

notice how no one is getting into it?

[@bunnykiller5409]

Omg thats 10 years ago 😱

[@JeserNoob]

@MrOhjames Heck yeah! lol

[@TheNammoth]

Machine Head shirt on Dudley, whoo!

[@hswatnik]

[@joshbrenneman]

[@osmarsoaresrosendo]

[@christopherjames2011]

You have never seen a show

[@Verrick88]

[@DeadlyDropin]

[@mjrupps]

[@ProdByClockwerk]

Actually he’s screaming the last syllable of the word happening haha.

[@mannymartinez7455]

On what he plays

[@610Films]

SICK CROWD

[@Davidgruntslayer]

@nic35761 oh you mean going nuts and owning the drums at every turn? ya he's sorta manly....just sayin

[@iZetsuboushita]

@osmarsoaresrosendo :D

[@soulexchangemusic]

Honestly i think the guitar player should have left(Not Timmy) i mean everyone is going nuts and he is just standing there, overall 5/6 members gave a sweet performance

[@oneeighthundredblink1824]

These guys are literally nothing without Aaron Gillespie. It's so obvious.
