Rain City Sessions - Misery Signals Malice X

[@OpprotunityCalls]

2023 checking in with the greatest live studio of all time.

[@alecwilliams3471]

this is so important to so many people

[@fox1509]

absolutely could not agree with you more. I was speechless after watching this. it's pure gold

[@dcye]

this album doesn't get enough credit as one of the best metalcore albums of all time.

[@brettbarreras48]

Agreed. So happy I was able to make the show in la. The atmosphere was amazing in the venue. Hard to describe

[@4444540]

Yes it fucking is, bro! Man i love this band!!!!

[@lordfizzz]

The defining album of my teens

[@lessthanthreemetal]

Sad that it's ending, stoked beyond belief to join the party.

[@YaBoyJRock42069]

Brenden Morgan is criminally underrated. Such an amazing drummer

[@schloo]

I bet he drums pretty good at night too!

[@rushour144]

Definitely not underrated in the drummer world, but in the grand scheme of things this is true. Dude embodies feel and precision without sounding like a robot...cough, Matt Grenier, cough cough.

[@abelhernandez316]

Evan Neel I legit felt that comparison of Matt to a robot lol he’s good but he plays too predictable...Branden Morgan will forever be my favorite drummer

[@michaelvieregge2257]

These dudes teased a project with Karl and I was so hyped for a KsE type clash of singers - then they formally announced it’s a farewell tour and I’m so heartbroken. 😔. Can’t thank each of yall enough for the memories and the music 🙏 Blood is forever, Love is forever

[@marcotaproot]

Im heartbroken too,I will never see them in my Portugal,I'm a fan around 15 years they are one of my favorite bands ever and their songs have a huge impact on my life,I didnt expect they broke soon,btw wish the best to the guys and big thanks to them for the amazing legacy

[@DusterBuglas]

This is the best video on youtube.

[@RyanSan89]

I agree with this.

[@BAMFlicous]

The ending of Five Years has been and will probably be my favorite outro to any song. It's the perfect blend of heavy and melodic.

[@fadedsun303]

It's epic. I wish on the album they jammed it out to a proper conclusion, instead of it fading out, but it doesn't lessen it in any way.

[@eshoe1331]

sword of eyes is the best outro for me

[@НикитаКостылев-ь8к]

ending of 7 angels 7 plagues - the commentator's despair - waaayy better!!

[@AmuZah]

Никита Костылев that is also an awesome one

[@Tatenak]

It always gave me a sense of romantic longing and sorrow at the same time.

[@carybanasiak8642]

I can hear everything perfectly. These engineers are beyond description. Taste and technique

[@tafttheraft5314]

This audio is straight from the mixer. You’re not hearing it recorded trough the camera like most live videos. But it still sounds great even with that in mind. Mixed very well.

[@MMeesh13]

[@LookAtTheBacon]

Single-handedly one of the greatest live videos in (KZbin) music history. Instant classic.

[@creepers_studio]

My best friend really like this band. When we were on high school we used to listen their song all the time. In 2009 we have chance to see them live when they were playing in BKK. THAILAND Unfortunately my friend die from an accident many years ago and every time I listen to your doing it make me miss my friend so much

[@leefchapman]

20 years this year for this absolutely life changing album

[@Yashar_Nourb]

I listen and cry, thinking about the past...thinking about losing someone forever...I will always bring this band and this album in my heart. When I die I hope I could listen to this forever...

[@Christianvalentinbooks]

Man, the audio engineering deserves a grammy with this mix.

[@TheSPazCORE]

Jesse's lyrics was what made Malice so great.

[@loveless9349]

So much nostalgia, combined with amazing music that's stood the test of time. Definitely better with age. I've listened to so much music, so much metal, it's hard to pick out a few albums, but even after hearing and enjoying hundreds upon hundreds of albums, Of Malice and the Magnum Heart still remains top 3 for me. I'm by no means a musician or even a critic myself, but when you've been listening to the same album for 10 years without it getting old, that's saying something.

[@jordanleblanc8464]

+Bradley McMartin most def

[@AndrewJShirley]

+Bradley McMartin So well said there, I couldn't agree more. How can an album be this old and still sound fresh and exciting. I still get goosebumbs during Worlds & Dreams, let alone Five Years.

[@DeceiverIX]

So much this!

[@apexscape]

you gotta give us your top 3

[@FifthAssassin]

❤🔥So much feels for how you stated that. I was Already older when this came out,30s actually. 45 now, have listened to 357875486 bands since youth. Of Malice can stand up to Any album in Any genre. It's actually ridiculous how great it is.

[@user-ss9vv6fh2p]

2022 and this is still one of the best live performances I’ve ever watched via video

[@manismostlywater]

Yes

[@OpprotunityCalls]

It'll never get better. I sat here and waited. These dudes were the truth.

[@Pendarr]

The interlude and the tribute to Robin Williams still gets me. If I was there that night I would have been crying like a baby (I didn’t realize til I looked at the description this was the day after he passed away.) What an incredible performance. Still one of the best live shows on KZbin.

[@VAPatriot757]

insane how great this album was and then to hear it live....wow.

[@ВладВло-ж5р]

Huge greetings from Russia. I fondly remember your crazy concert in Moscow in 2008. you are the best guys!

[@DyanBermeo]

Is there video of it?

[@ryanblauer547]

All these years later this still breaks me to my very core.

[@kevindellavecchia1317]

This album holds so much for me. Being 16 at the time & just losing my dad. Then discovering this album & clenching onto it for all of its emotion filled heavy melodic songs. This has to be one of my most played albums. The fact that It's just songs from Malice & with Jessie, I would have drove to where ever to see this. If only I would have known about it. Non the less this is a amazing KZbin find.

[@NothingbutaGFrang]

fuckin love how they play all the instrumentals and interludes in between songs. i feel like some bands are prone to just playing a recording for those, but the way MS plays them just gives me goosebumps

[@joshmerrick8036]

lord oh lord, i saw these dudes in a skate shop in tulsa before malice came out. they were the reason i went. i was 16? self titled sits heavy in my all time list. jesus that was 13 years ago. I remember we had bad storms that night, and the power went out before the show, but came on just in time for them to play. its fun how certain special memories can stick so hard to you.

[@briankrol7447]

What magic did the sound guy perform on this night? The mix is pristine, balanced, and rip-roaring crunchy. And the intensity and emotion of the band is just off the charts. It’s perfect.

[@michaelvieregge2257]

Ive watched this several times over the years . The greatest compliment one could could ever have is when the original vocalist from the most important band from our generation tells you , " you should be singing ." I hope that kid is still singing

[@andrewtucker2782]

I hope they take pride for writing perfect music for so many years. Nothing they do is bad, absolutely nothing. I'm proud for being a part of the most dedicated fan base out there.

[@_Digishade_]

I don't have the words to express. It's hard to believe I'm even hearing this at all! Next to Controller, Malice is my favorite album by MisSig. The outro to "Five Years" sets me on fire *every time.* Amazing? Epic? Brutal? Unforgettable? I just wish I could've been there. Just... wow.

[@xGORISONx]

I feel you man! The ending always gives me chills and i feel like i have to reevaluate my life.

202,561 views is just not enough, it just isn't.

[@Little4PieceGretsch]

There aren't a lot of videos on YT that I continually come back to view and listen to, but this is one of them. I have lost track of how many times I have watched this live set. I feel that there aren't a lot of bands that sound as good live as they do on their albums, but this is not the case with Misery Signals. While Of Malice and the Magnum Heart still sounds great to me after all these years, their live performance of the album is absolutely amazing. The production for this recording sounds excellent and not overly-produced; the videography was tastefully done (not overly-"artsy", no crazy angles, and not changing views every two seconds); the band is so absolutely talented, yet they still made a few very minor mistakes, and I love that because it shows that they are human; and the band is so passionate about their craft and the message they share in their lyrics. I am thankful for bands like Misery Signals, this album, and this live recording done by Rain City Recordings. Keep rockin', dudes.

I have traveled through so many losses and made it through because of this album alone.
