I saw them for the first time with Clutch and Motörhead and they blew everyone off the stage. No question, the best live band I’ve seen.

Welcome to stoner rock my friend. These guys are awesome but the ones carrying the flag for Sabbath are Sleep and Electric Wizard. Plenty of bands out there praising Iommi. Black Rainbows, Wo Fat, Sasquatch, Lo-pan, Freedom Hawk, Fu Manchu, Green Lung, Stoner, and Low Rider are some other great bands too! Check them out

@farwoodfarm92962 жыл бұрын
I can't remember they opened for someone I went to see in Raleigh/Durham or Chapel hill. I've found so many great bands that were opening acts. The Sword to me is the perfect blend of Sabbath and Cream, 2 of my favorites.

Thank you for uploading this. This is my favorite Sword live concert. I am kicking myself every day for not seeing their Apocryphon tour. I must have watched this concert on Vimeo a dozen times at least. I caught them on the Used Future tour, but it was a much more mellow show. I heard there was crazy shit happening at the Apocryphon show crowdsurfing moshing. Wish they recorded this as a live CD/DVD release coz their playing here is just so tight. Plus the setlist is just spectacular. Thank you so much again.

I’ve only listened to the first track so far, but initially the vocals are too dry and probably too high in the mix. You can hear later though, somebody has turned up the reverb and delay for the vocals-it makes a big difference. The delay level seems to fluctuate. I don’t know if that is intentional or somebody trying to dial it in on the fly.
