Protest The Hero - No Stars Over Bethlehem - Live On Fearless Music

[@CherchezLeEd]

In my 30’s and still revisiting this album, Kezia has aged pretty well.

[@atticus420famous]

they are amazing live. regardless how much they put into this performance i've seen them too many times to count on my fingers and toes, and they have never failed to impress me. they are all stand up guys outside of the music and proud to say i come from the same province as these musical geniouses

[@superbond2]

I love this group. Seriously one of the most talented groups of musicians to play together ever. This performance does NOT do them justice.

[@noydoyleboyle666]

Their vocalist is so good. Sounds just like the albums.

[@geldofpunk32]

except the parts where he screams instead of hitting the high notes

[@ianhellrazer]

Why is the tempo so low..?

[@davidlajeunesse2168]

I guess that there is a stupid guy that don't know how to export a video correctly

[@stoshbrodus21479]

I remember seeing this video on one of the heavy metal shows and was confused as fuck lol but in a good way,, i was a hardcore/metal kid and this and a bunch of influences crankin into somethin I hadn’t really heard much of? That Kezia album is pretty dam good! Here I am 16yrs later listening to the jams .. dam time flys!🤔

[@Hellion6325]

Bloodmeat live video has Arif singing those parts near the end Also, I'm pretty sure Arif did the lower screams in Kezia

[@WendyGroth]

i love this singer, i love these guitar players, i love this bassist, and yes i love this drummer, I love this band

[@PanicAtTheBen]

I;ve been an alubm listener for a decade. Never believed he could do the voice live. Oh boy. Was I wrong!!!!!!

[@alexstypes]

@wakiza777 I wasn't talking about this specific song, I was pointing out that if a band's lyrical content references all the above I mentioned...then they're far from emo. Its not just bloodmeat, its bone marrow, limb from limb and Goddess bound and gagged. Don't be so condescending, I know my shit about PtH. Hell...even partied with 'em. Nice try though.

[@ThinkingIsHard13]

its funny cuz at 1:11 it seems like for just a SPLIT second...they play it at full speed haha

[@horseface666]

@TheScrewball1982 Well actually, i am the backup vocalist/guitarist in a band and I do singing as well as screams, that plays live about monthly, so yes i do have some knowledge about vocals. I have sung protest the hero and I do know how the pitch of which rody sings is straining on the voice. Screams when done correctly, cause no strain and are basically easier, so it is likely he does it as a tactic to preserve his voice for later shows and hide his voice cracks.

[@89ry89]

everybody hating on this video I agree you do have perfect reason. but on the other hand I really like this video because it shows them playing the song at a slower rate and thats unusual but I really kind of like it.

[@ShadowCrowX]

honestly, are there ANY other metal bands out there these days that have clean vocals? that are also just as good as PTH?

[@toboca741]

Awsome band!!!

[@Lewis---]

haha, the volume on the second vocal mic is virtually non existent

[@carsonwlki]

the vocalsss

[@Shizzy77]

The sound quality is so bad in this video. Try listening to the studio version to get an idea of what they're playing.

[@F4RB3YONDM3T4L]

@Sup3rH4nZ honestly we should just be happy you can hear the vocals.

[@CAPutoob]

sounds so gentle

[@stall2dude911]

nice guys

[@jakestewartmusic]

I guess the Marshall and Orange cabs are property of Fearless. I saw Foxy Shazam using the Marshall cab and The Dillinger Escape Plan used both cabs... excuse my gear-headedness... Protest is so fuckin amazing though

[@aPOTg]

@eve2130 its called rythm. have you ever tried to actually write lyrics vocals to the rhythm of a song? aside from that, have you ever tried to write lyrics to a song with lots of time signature/tempo changes? the vocals not only have to match pitch wise, they have to match rythmically too. and its just as difficult to do vocals that way, as it is to actually play the instruments.

[@pseudoshdr]

@Sup3rH4nZ You can't blame the sound guy for not playing the song at the right tempo or for the numerous mess ups on their guitar parts.

[@ProtestTheFingHero]

wow Ive seen them live 3 times, and they never sounded anywhere close to this bad....

[@Randinator]

I feel horrible for you if you can't appreciate Protest the Hero's guitar playing.

[@maddeku0]

wait..a song called no stars over bethlehem on FOX? unheard of

[@dustinpine3705]

Luke looks like a hippie love it.

[@turnsoonest]

Why was this posted a year after bloodmeat?

[@0redthunder0]

@Mabbzz60 Haha nah i've seen other gigs of this song, it only seems to be on this song that it goes off :P if you watch em at the warped tour, they play it pretty well :O

[@pseudoshdr]

Wow, they blow live. . .

[@Tarpull]

just remember that they have one of the most complex songs ever written to get tightly and with great speed on top

[@dustinpine3705]

UR probably looking back at this and facepalming

[@metalguitar777]

@ShadowCrowX yeah it's gotten to a point that the vocals all sound the same. that and damn breakdowns, thats why there are very few american metal bands that i listen to.

[@mackiezer032]

is that a prestige S series ibanez?

[@travis12398]

waaaay to fucking under rated

[@JEAG]

@Equivalence4 So you´re saying anyone of us woulb be? You know these guys are regular people, they learned just like us...

[@jtxp93]

their tempos and timing is juz simply awesome

[@TheFaceOfJohnPants]

@Equivalence4 I don't know what the other guy said but i agree with you.

[@Melodist]

10 points for the ppc slope orange cab :P the rest sounds pretty uncoordinated even though I love them as hell

[@Paolo10692]

@redriverhautbois i could not have put that better myself. PTH are insane

[@EddietehFace]

@CaptainVicStevens agreed.

[@benoz11]

The tempo kinda seemed all over the place. Still amazing

[@petrucciguitargod]

this song its really hard at full speed, not saying they cant play it maybe they were tired or somethin, anyway pth for the win

[@alexstypes]

@corybiro that's fine if you don't like their sound...but calling it emo is kind of ridiculous. Lyrics about Genghis Kahn, villages being destroyed and the Goddess Fladias is pretty far from emo. Juuuuust sayin.

[@Killenmachine05]

@steak1289 but how ever, i went to see them a few weeks ago, this is pretty much their stage show, except rody has ALOT mor presence, tim and luke dont head bang anymore because they dont have hair now.

[@jjoohhnn182]

I have seen these guys live and they were fucking amazing, I wish they would have put a little effort into this.

[@grahamNC83]

Would a sound check have killed them?

[@naes9999]

saw him a few weeks ago, arif didn't sing. only tim and luke and rody.

[@JRHamify]

thank you for that insight on drugs shroomsamich

[@wayfarer13]

turn on the back up mic

[@LeechMaster13]

Im glad dudes n chicks understand what I've been saying (peep my comnent like 9 months ago I came back from the ashes to check on my babies protest the hero) ha! When u sit in a studio for 3 weeks on the same song, perfecting, and then mastering every note, every instrument every vocal melody/harmony, adding reverb and wtvr other effects..you get a little sick of playing said song ya kno? Not to say these dudes don't love their music!

[@PGROSYE02]

Not "hip" enough for you I guess?

[@Jo3M]

Fuck they have gotten a lot better after this

[@GtrVieth]

@pseudoshdr You can if the guitars can't hear themselves playing

[@CSB008]

@LeechMaster13 No one stops you to run it again. This would have been their first take... and their only take.

[@hydenwings]

very good live, i noticed its slower then the actual song, but the real song is almost too fast, if you covered their song you'd know what i mean lol

[@AntonDoesMusic]

It's like they're bored.

[@TheAlexAlaska]

they slow this song down a whole lot :o

[@bumcookie1]

I am ashamed that Justin Bieber comes from my same province....... .........on the other hand............. I am honoured that Protest The Hero comes from the same province. \m/

[@dmk_weaver]

@ShadowCrowX perhaps alter bridge but its actually no metal. i think its hard rock

[@rebelScience]

That sounds like an avarage recording from some bands garage, using some camera-phone to record. Very bad. And singing is wery bad :( still love the band!

[@biffgriffiths]

WTF IS TAKING BACK SUNDAY!!!!

[@horseface666]

I wish rody would actually sing on the singing parts live instead of screaming through them half the time.

[@akadylan]

@redriverhautbois it's not thaaaat bad you'll survive

[@t045tygh05t]

fuck yeah, smash that le like and pound that sub into submissions 10 years later it's basically le same thing

[@Gwitfu90]

Their records are much better than their live performances.

[@cutepoison98]

a little bit slow isnt it?

[@ShadowCrowX]

@alexstypes lol I know, there's nothing emo about PTH. Rody's voice is all rock n' roll

[@JHix37]

@obeydot WOOOOOO LOVE YOU:P

[@stevehuxley1420]

God the sound quality sucks here. RE RECORD THIS SHIT

[@TheVenusProjectInfo]

@pseudoshdr you write and play it then

[@Oatinator]

@pseudoshdr PTH is amazing live - _ - Open your damn ears.

[@narutoboy2010]

TURN ARIF'S MIC UP!

[@Dangerdailey]

@Alexthefuturebassist haha are you sure you're watching the right video?

[@indoorkiddo]

they're playing it slower that the studio version, a lot slower.

[@rocksbarman]

i dont like it when he changes the good voice melodies for screamings and at the begining wow, it was really messed up oh and the slower tempo well.. took a lot of what this son is about i prefer the studio version

[@zarucarsha]

Ironically, the high cleans--which arguably take a bit of talent to pull off--are pulled off very well, whereas the harsher parts--which usually don't take much skill--sound awful. Haha. Pretty good performance! Glad to see he can actually sing live.

[@TrisofRoblind]

It looks like they aren't even trying... natural badasses

[@FasterToTheEnd]

Normally they are pretty good. Check out when Hit the Lights played. Perfect audio.

[@LeechMaster13]

It can be fatiguing even to play one riff, and every single time u fuck up..or it doesn't sound pure..dude stops u and says, run it back, u fucked up ur own song..pth is like dude..faaaaack! Ok run it back I got u..imagine doing what you love 4,000 times in a row straight..you'd def do it a bit slower cuz ur like damn this shit again? Listen to the album for perfection dudes n chicks! Protest is the illest of their style..not to mention kezia and fortress are epic tales of wildness lol!

[@backtoemocovers]

they look that they were rehearsing

[@eve2130]

Holy fucking tempo changes. Great musical ability and knowledge of scales, but when one song sounds like 17 songs clipped together, something is not right. That guy can sing, but his lyrics are like a giant run-on sentence.

[@ahmed86323]

live

[@saveoursandwich]

@alexstypes Unintelligent people can't distinguish Rody's voice type from that of a scene kid crying blood, unfortunately.

[@pseudoshdr]

@Equivalence4 Wow first of all I didn't imply that I explained that, you did! I simply said I can execute things correctly. Second of all your trying to diss me on my half assed put together improvised videos that have an obviously stupid title! A round of applause to to the dufus that tried to diss someone who already disses their own videos! PTH is a good "studio band," but can't play their material for shit live and I've seen more than just this video and have a live album.

[@thisisachannel-i1i]

it looks like before they learned to play this song at full speed lol

[@brachlandmusic]

@ShadowCrowX The Fall Of Troy.. but they split up :(

[@Dangerdailey]

i'll bet you listen to alternative.

[@Mabbzz60]

@0redthunder0 no shit :O ... -_- I thing it's a bit the point of the style they have 8-)

[@yarbyarbzz]

why is it so fucking slow paced?

[@SG-nd9bf]

I hear a lot of Iron Maiden in their work

[@Unrated48]

Lmao I didn't read comments but who the fuck said those guys we're emo? They're everything but emo Loll

[@0redthunder0]

Brill playing but... the tempo goes off at many points haha

[@PrometheanTNGuitaris]

maybe he has 7 of them...one for every day of the week

[@gocsa]

WTF, just listen to this song from Gallop Meets the Earth. That one's not a perfect performance either, but SO much better than this.

[@hugonongbri8100]

Who's here from Jared Dines ??🤣🤣

[@3shadesofsugar]

they could move around atleast look like they are rocking out

[@MyEggIsBoiled]

Holy tempo cut PTH!

[@musikteer]

I wonder why Rody was so calm in tis....I sawpth in vegas and they were all over theplac. Except fo the bassist ad drummer. The rythm guitar player was wearing booty shorts the whole time XD

[@Ashgale123]

As much as I like PTH...I really dislike his screaming in this video! Is it always this bad live?

[@kowtpr187]

@iloveskateboarding45 lol @ your face!
