Mutemath - War live @ Roodshow Late Night

[@shreyyansh]

How does it feel to replace the best drummer alive? Nothing. It feels like nothing. You do your own thing and make your own bubble. Hutch, more power to you. Drive this your own way. You're darn good.

[@Revdrum]

We may never get a live album of Play Dead so I’m so happy this lives on

[@4ourty5ive]

Love this. -- Can we please get MuteMath an NPR tiny desk concert... PLEASE.

[@SomeLittleShoe]

We had a fantastic 10 years with Mutemath music. The Beatles were together 10 years too. My hats off to groups that last longer than 10 years.

[@lglp3]

SomeLittleShoe Paul has not said officially that mute math is over

[@lglp3]

SomeLittleShoe you can do whatever you want but just saying, Roy is still part of the creative process.

[@DoctoRhythm]

Missing Darren and Roy like many, but one observation: This time must be an absolute mind trip for Paul (singer) - He's now surrounded by 3 musicians each representing different decades in his musical evolution, with fate somehow setting them all on a collision course to perform together. And they sound WAYYY tighter than I was bracing for! -- Faith restored for Play Dead Live this fall.

[@JoshCampbellGeekXL]

Totally 100% agree. Literally buying tickets tonight for Cleveland. Thanks for making me leave my first KZbin comment ever.

[@DoctoRhythm]

Kevin Josh Campbell Haha, happy to oblige! I'm pretty psyched to have the first US show in Boston. Enjoy in Cleveland!

[@jacobg1988]

On Tuesday I saw them for the first time in my life, in Utrecht (NL). So, I cannot compare it to the former band. I enjoyed it a lot! Awesome band.

[@Astronomynatureandmusic]

Absolutely. Saw them live last week in Utrecht - incredibly tight sound! Enjoyed it enormously.

[@Astronomynatureandmusic]

Jacobg Ik was daar ook. Gaaf was het he.

[@jesolinger]

I have been a huge fan from the very start. I saw them live in '04, '07, '16 and yesterday (8-29-'17) in Utrecht, The Netherlands. I was quite disappointed when Darren left and I was afraid yesterday's show would disappoint. But it really was beyond expectations: truly AMAZING!! They played with so much energy! I believe the show was even better than the one I saw in '16 (with Darren and Roy). Hutch really surprised me, he played with so much energy and passion. He played some mind-blowing energetic fills. Het totally rocked it! I think he's the perfect match. As a true fan I am now convinced this band will survive.

[@ThePlagueGameing]

the band for sure will survive. hutch and paul know each other very well and trust me, he wouldn't be there if paul thought for one second that he couldn't cut it. listen to some early Earthsuit. it really is mutemath as an infant, IMO. have a great day!

[@YouDontWannaFightMe]

jesolinger79 I think they need to make Hutch a permanent member. This guy is very good and has a ton of potential with the band.

[@monicalawrence4658]

Going to the STL show & can't say I've ever been this excited for a concert. This album is just...come. On. Darren will be missed but anyone willing to fill those shoes deserves a chance to be heard. Also, Paul's dance moves. They deserve my attention as well.

[@stevethibodeaux3764]

Way to go Hutch! Looking good man! What a great song, I cannot wait for the album.

[@carlijayne7]

New favorite live song.

[@MuhaSore]

Plus. In my opinion. This album has the most wicked songs yet. This and stroll on are songs that NEED to be played live hahaha

[@YouDontWannaFightMe]

Watching this performance prompted me to almost immediately purchase a ticket for the tour after the video ended. Mind = Blown

[@terimcmahon4158]

Hell yeah. This gives me so much hope! I think it's fucking awesome to see them rise above the obstacles and naysayers. Stillll crushin it, guys

[@edplaysdrums8435]

Teri McMahon heck yeah!

[@DoctoRhythm]

Teri McMahon This 7 minutes was the selling point for me.

[@Brudelay]

Dayum Hutch! Killing it boy! goose bumps, band is still sick as ever!

[@photomakerman]

Masterpiece.

[@user-xm5le5ok2r]

Really sounding good! Can't wait to see them in Charlotte!

[@SayGeizi]

Paul's dance moves mesmerized. It was awesome. The Orlando show was mind blowing.

[@kneegahrowplz404]

Watched this video at least a 100 times in the past 2 days.

[@sweetmommapea2387]

Yay! Paul this is great! I wasn't worried that I wouldn't dig what you came up with. You are absolutely a creative genius, no doubt cool stuff to come. I am a huge fan of you and Darren, together or seperate. No stopping your flow. No stopping his. Peace 🤙

[@Hell_Inc]

badass performance. the new mutemath is a masterpiece

[@sungmoonkim9217]

OMG i love this bend!!!

[@mihaidrums5]

The drummer has a Bonham feel ))) And the sound of the drums is pretty similar

[@ThePlagueGameing]

interesting observation. he for sure will use both cymbals a lot for accents. darren only ever had one i believe. he also doesn't use any tape for dampening that i can see. snare is alot crisper sounding because of that plus more than likely a different mic and eq..

[@lexhitreset]

Good Job Hutch! Big shoes to fill, keep it up. you got this.

[@sharonmcgillivray771]

Awesome

[@DavidCrandallIsHere]

2:58 - Hutch is a beast.

[@justsupersteve]

man how I miss Darren and Roy 😖😖😢😢😢 this sounds good but Darren himself was a living human show worth to watch and stare for hours 😖💔

[@minijoebroccoli]

This goes so hard

[@MuhaSore]

I really liked this live version. I liked earthsuit drums, and I really liked hutch on mutemath as well. Nota the Dame as darren, but let's give this Guy some time. He barely had time to learn them sonha darren wrote and os doing It really well.

[@jesalbert42]

This is way tighter than I anticipated, wow.

[@pistachio0891]

This song kicks ass. Yeppers.

[@nathantnetti]

Mutemath with out taped/muted drums? DANG. Do your thing Hutch!

[@finalesessionsmusic]

He jams on the drums !!!!

[@cinevadininternet]

Creativity level: INSANE!! Oh mannnnn!

[@jesussmiraclepowerministry1774]

This is mama Janice Jesus miracle power mode I’ve been praying for you lately

[@garrettnewman7438]

Trust the Hutch

[@eagleeyeproductions2317]

This reminds me of when Josh Klinghoffer replaced John Frusciante in RHCP. You can't really replace someone no matter how good you are. You just need to be as good as you can be, try to stay true enough to the original sound, at the same time bringing your own unique talents and style to the music. If you think about the evolution of this band and how they pretty much sound different on every album, this is just the next step. I am hoping we see new material in 2020.

[@trevorgoodman8077]

Darren is freaking fantastic but Hutch is dope and I don't care what anyone says. I'll see them live

[@stevendukedesigns]

FALSE! Hutch is not as good and boring! You can't disagree with me.

[@mrharleygroves]

There's a tightness that's missing here. Whether or not Hutch and Paul have played together in the past it'll still take time for all 4 guys to mesh together and perfect their sound. Which I'm sure will get better and better as the tour progresses. Hutch seems to be a pretty competent drummer. Slick fills. Just lacks that certain groove and crispness in the pocket that Darren had. Not to mention the energy. That being said, they sound as good as they can given the circumstances and short notice. Love this live version of the song. Been a die hard fan since the beginning. Can't wait to see the whole show.

[@ThePlagueGameing]

now that's a good solid comment. listen too some early Earthsuit. it was mutemath as a baby!.

[@jpoprock]

I think the lack of "tightness" you're hearing is in the drum sound not the playing. Hutch doesn't "tape" his drum heads like Darren did (which deadens them). Hutch has a much more lively drum sound, where Darren had a really "tight" sound... which is part of what made him so unique. I'll be anxious to hear how the old songs sound. MM is still able to function but losing Darren was more than losing one of the worlds best drummers... but a front man as well. It's going to be a rough road for MM I think.

[@johnpc91]

Ffffantastic ...

[@absolutedrumsya]

I saw them live on 29th of August in Utrecht, the Netherlands. And they were marvelous! Even without Darren 'I-am-a-living-metronome' King they simply raised the roof! David “Hutch” Hutchison drummed the living daylights out of any Mutemath-song and didn't cover his appreciation for the art of drums!

[@AndrewHyett]

GIVE IT UP 4 DA HEAR-T FELT HUNCHES ON THE DRUMSKIES. PLEASE WELCOME THE NEW MUTEMATH DRUMMER THAT WAS.😊❤

[@billerin7995]

am i the only 1 thinking its amazing?

[@edplaysdrums8435]

Man dave is having foldback problems! Man that sucks so much!! So unfair given the circumstances. Very excited to see what the future holds for this band.

[@Revdrum]

You can play Typical on Rock Band, so we should all be used to other people playing mute math songs by now. Hutch is doing a solid job

[@AndrewHyett]

At 2:19 he lost the Hutch on drum connection, and starting singing off key😊😊😊😊

[@AndrewHyett]

The last dance

[@65Marcus]

Can I get a HOT DAMN!

[@bounterhunty1013]

Forget about bass face, check out that drum face!

[@chicapunky]

Paul is electric.

[@idol2984]

New drummer is tight!

[@ived_]

Which keyboard he's playing ? Is that a midi keyboard ?

[@SuperSean95]

It breaks my heart...because it feels as if one of my fav bands is being held together by this exceptionally thin man...who’s holding on with prayers, tears and determination. Oh God please Bless Paul Meany to keep going! In Jesus name!

[@sharonmcgillivray771]

[@Armani-2005]

Asphalt 9

[@ThePlagueGameing]

Hutch was original Earthsuite right? The bass player?.

[@minijoebroccoli]

Drummer is hutch and yes he’s from earthsuit

[@Travisharger]

Hutch is clutch.

[@AndrewHyett]

*Hutch on the beats.❤🙏👍🏻🫶👏☝️

[@autumnescalator]

The sound is ok. The energy is lacking. Roy and Darren were huge to mutemath. Sad that this evolution is a bit more low key from the amazing performances they used to put on.

[@donnie3109]

agreed 100%

[@justinj_00]

Maybe Low Key by MuteMath standards but it was still light years ahead of the other concerts I've been to

[@sharonmcgillivray771]

I'm converting just need a few steel strings, amp and find a band to practise with

[@AndrewHyett]

Umm chucky nailed the drums. #staypaul

[@sharonmcgillivray771]

Or much of a heavy metalist

[@rockymaketer]

daren is good, but David, the new drum, kick ass !

[@sharonmcgillivray771]

Awesome but I'm not a head banger!!!

[@duckduckgoose8049]

The new drummer is pretty good. Too bad he is only here for tours and they have to find a new guy afterwords.

[@YouDontWannaFightMe]

Totally agreed! They definitely need to find a way to keep him in the band. The fact he can play Darren's beats so well is absolutely mindblowing.

[@keg7790]

From the most recent interview, Hutch literally just decided to get back into music and performing at the same time Paul realized he needed to find a drummer. There is good chance he sticks around especially if everything progress. Paul has no desire to quit music so I dont think this is the end, just a new era. Check the interview on the side bar from Jorm Kaat

[@andrewarbogast1]

Never really liked them after their self titled album. Reset and Mutemath was their best work.

[@justinj_00]

Jonathan Allen (the bassist in this video) played bass on the Reset EP

[@maaxalvarez]

Goddamn their new drummer is boring

[@donnie3109]

yup

[@donnie3109]

too much cymbals

[@markmatinez1016]

donnie yen dude fuck OFF

[@donnie3109]

lol just giving my opinion bro lol good performance over all but DK would not use so many cymbals (only drummers would understand)
