Retrospective: Live From Atlanta - Set 2

[@dmmhtm]

We are so f**king lucky to be alive at the same time as this band. Incredible.

[@hollowtahh]

Preach bro

[@guythatredguy]

I think this regularly too 🥹🖤

[@barmetler]

I just live in the wrong place, I very rarely have concerts near me, and if they are, they get cancelled :(

[@beamannydanny]

This band is truly the definition of timeless. Clairvoyant feels like an album that exists outside of time, the songs are so well written that they just don't age. It's like the best example of quality over quantity. And the fact that they can reproduce these songs live and sound so close to the record is just incredible!

[@liamnissanS2K]

Saw them live a decade ago with the OG vocalist. Even back then they were scary good. Locked In Is an understatement.

[@jacobwielgus]

Diabolically competent musicianship

[@Dracula_sb]

ON GOD

[@Mackenzieadventures1]

This band has gotten me through some dark times.

[@ERICdaGREAT09]

YES! This band alone got me out of the darkest place I've ever been. Clairvoyant specifically.

[@Lostenso]

you have no freaking idea! youre not alone!

[@cjmuncy234]

@@ERICdaGREAT09 i lived on Clairvoyant for YEARS because it was the only album that helped me through the dark years. like you said, this band got me through and out of the darkest times. every single album i can listen to from front to back.

[@josericardoxavier_]

Same

[@siegedoyle]

Same. It came out at the right time with a lot of other bands that did as well. Thankful really.

[@francis35141]

i don't like to talk about my feelings but fuck... since 2010 this band has taken me through many crazy periods of my life. I cried so many times while listening to them, searching for myself, the people i've lost, understanding the meaning of my life. each time “the contortionist” was there to chase away my darkest thoughts. my life has been stable since then, i've learned a lot now that i'm 30 but everything seems grey and aimless. it's harder to feel the passion of life. i guess that's what being an adult is all about. but every time i go back to listen to these guys, it hurts terribly to think about the past but at the same time, i can feel the colors again. just... thank you to make me feel alive again

[@stuartbramwell7731]

At 30, you're just getting started my man. So many incredible things out there. Wishing you the best on your journey!

[@sharchik916]

There's a lot of music out there. But there's literally nothing as all encompassing as this... Most criminally underrated band of our time.

[@zackmoorer7908]

The Retrospective sets deserve so much more praise and recognition. The collection is my favorite set of recorded live performances to come out in recent years. I can't decide which set is my favorite, and at this point, I think I prefer these live performances over the studio recordings. All of the small alterations that each musician makes to each song complement the music in such a seamless way, and creates such a fresh take on songs that I have listened to so many times now. It is on repeat in my Spotify. The production is phenomenal, the directing and editing are impressively executed, and it is all to table some of the most cohesive and gripping music in the genre. Well done y'all, the work is an inspiration to musicians like me.

[@AfterSimone]

If I had to nitpick, my only tweak would be to add crowd cheers in-between and certain moments. Don't recall if these were live tour shows or not haha. And one other thing would have Mike do those legendary high-pitched screams he used to do on Language II: conspire, I remember those 2 particular screams he would do on that song would get audible gasps from the crowd EVERY TIME, but I'm sure it did a number on his voice over time hence why he might not do em anymore. But this is me just being an asshole lol this is essentially *perfect*

[@cb4atl]

I love them all but I just don’t think we’ll ever get anything better than #3 and, specifically, the high water mark of Geocentric Confusion. I’m not sure that’s ever going to get topped in my eyes for any live performance of any band in this genre. I get chills no matter how many dozens of times I’ve watched that set.

[@Gold96999]

Playing guitar and drums at the same time, Incredible!

[@thezogs95]

The contortionist is the best band of our time

[@Ryo7_7]

Indeed 🤘

[@NicholasSkinner-s7c]

Love when a live performance sounds even better than the studio album. Incredible work!

[@Dracula_sb]

I exclusively listen to this version now

[@Zack-dv6rz]

One of the best bands in the past 15 years easily.

[@tannersiegfort3022]

Hear me out. A Clairvoyant tour, but only in nice, sound controlled, seated venues across the US. This album is a work of art. Maaaan, I’d pay $500 minimum for a ticket to that.

[@arieldeleon157]

I WOULDNT BLINK

[@Jbl139]

Agreed, wholeheartedly.

[@andrewsorrentino1209]

I’m in, absolutely in.

[@timur7381]

Haken did something like that. A seated down concert, a 3hr experience, no openers, just the band performing for the fans and interacting with the crowd. I really enjoyed the format. Tickets were around $100

[@imsleepcuz4726]

I have never felt a song speak to my life experiences as much as The Center. I literally feel like it’s a story about my life in some aspects

[@escapewalk]

These guys always setting up new bars for what it is to be a band. A complete one.

[@Ryo7_7]

Definitely. I can't wait to see them live.

[@ProjectPhoenix21]

This album is easily in my top 5 of all time. It released during a very dark and difficult time in my life. It really helped me during those days in so many ways. I must have listened from start to finish about 100 times in a few weeks back then. I honestly could never thank you guys enough for writing such a powerful and inspiring work of art.

[@sicdedworm09]

Same man, same. I lost my dog to cancer, my Dad to pancreatic cancer a few months later, my sister was a heroin addict living with us all while trying to take care of my Grandma with Dementia. Just one thing after another. My house felt almost cursed. This album was a saving grace during a terrible time. Hope you’re doing better ♥️

[@ProjectPhoenix21]

@@sicdedworm09 big hug to you and hope you’re in a better head space now. Take care friend, have a good day.

[@greatvaluecorndog]

right there with you friend. eyes toward the sky. we got this.

[@MikeR-bh9cg]

My favorite album of all time. Monochrome (Pensive) is stunningly beautiful

[@alexburchell1891]

Will never not be blow away by the power of Monochrome Pensive. Possibly one of the greatest pieces of music ever written.

[@kielsol]

So grateful to not only be alive right now, but also have found this band back during Exoplanet. This album has helped me through a lot since it dropped.

[@antoine33231]

Return to the Earth is one of the most powerful and emotional songs. Easily in my top 5 favorite songs ever, and this performance was spot on!

[@lukasohlsson4120]

That is an EXPENSIVE live setup! God damn!!! But the playing and production is S tier!!!

[@amnorth5342]

I love you guys, this year marks a decade since I first heard your music, I think the first song was Thrive and it was an instant love, it has been 10 years where you have accompanied me in many beautiful processes of my life, I am grateful to have the privilege of knowing your music.

[@francescoberra246]

Contortionist uploading a video in 2024? Not on my bingo card :O

[@karrinavolk4381]

Вы классные ребята и вокалист просто супер продолжайте в том же духе. , желаю вам благ всех и развития.... ❤

[@Ryo7_7]

Mike is such a great singer. The whole band is just epic. My personal favorite.🤘

[@z_ragnair]

so glad to see them playing Clairvoyant. at this point it's my absolute favorite album from this guys.

[@wussly813]

Incredible performance! Audio quality is amazing. Have to give Michael special recognition for having absolute vocal control. He is one of my favorite vocalists in this arena

[@OneMorningSongs]

7:43 the "oh please, whatever" always touched me. Goosebumps every damn time.

[@Hiei999]

Man, they really saved us during the lockdown. Me and my girlfriend would blast the stereo, turn on LED bulbs in different colors, dark to emulate being at an actual live show.

[@zaxbyeth]

This band is somehow not all over the world. They deserve it. Insane talent across all members.

[@CharlesLuedecke]

My wife went into labor right in the middle of the live premier, so I missed a majority of it. Wonderful reason to miss it, for sure, but thanks for uploading an official version so that I watch it in its entirety any time I want!! (:

[@benhenryart]

Incredible! Will we get a new album at some point? Itching for more from ya'll!

[@Dan52484]

Good things come to.....well, you know the rest.

THIS ROCK N ROLL MUSIC IS SHAKIN MY DAMN SOUL

[@josericardoxavier_]

Very beautiful album, I fell in love with it during a specially hard time in my life. Converted to Catholicism during this time and kept listening to this wonderful band. This music uncovers new worlds within my soul and shows me landscapes I havent thought existed inside my spirit. Thank you.

[@horriblepotato]

every song from this album slaps so hard, its unbelievably.

[@dam0nt]

The bass in Absolve is amazing.

[@Grasses0n]

Such an incredible band, easily one of my favorites. They've kept us in much suspense over the new album, but I have a strong feeling when it drops it's gonna blow us all away.

[@rbwduece1]

I really appreciate how focused you guys are during this performance and your ability to replicate the original versions of these songs is impressive! No theatrics or gimmicks; just locked in and putting all your attention toward the music!

[@PierreVilleneuve88]

I love this band so much. I have seen them live in Montreal where they were the first of 3 parts. The sound ans lighting was abysmal but I still feel lucky to have witness their performance. The worls needs to know them more. Joey Baca deserves way more credits. His grooves are refined, original and fit the melody well. He is very inspiring for me. For me, Language and Clairvoyant are 2 friggin masterpieces.

[@robbyalp]

Really do believe this album reaches the high heights of all musical and artistic expression. Appreciate this

[@Keegbot]

18:05 that half time on the main riff is nastyyyy

You guys never cease to amaze me! How you manage to create amazing compositions, garnish them with technical mastership without getting lost in the sauce and make them highly emotional engaging, just pushes all the buttons for me!! I am in my 40s now and had quite a long period, where I thought no band would ever hit me as hard as my established favourites...you very quickly ascended into those ranks. Thank you for staying true to your artistic vision and by that, kindle me with inspiration! Greetings and best wishes from Hamburg, Germany. Saw you guys a couple of years back here @Knust and even had the chance to chat with Rob for a bit at the merch stand. Will cherish that evening forever and hope to get the chance to see you live again, soon!
