Watching this 2019 and seeing them in the same room Paul records in alone now absolutely breaks my heart
Breaks my heart AF as well
This band has had an amazing journey. I’m so glad I found that last copy of the Reset EP.
It’s so sad, I’ve mat Paul and his family a couple times and they’re such down to earth people... Darren was also a great man...
@@rednekredemption2467 is! DK still does great stuff and i believe is coming out with solo/collaborative (lol) LP "Lockers" soon
So true, his heart and soul went into this and its gone now. But hey, you never know right?
It’s 2023 and I still come back to watch this. It’s because of this video I found out about Forte, the song at the end of the video. And it has since become my favorite instrumental piece ever. I really hope all 4 of the OG Mutemath members are doing well. They were way ahead of their time.
Totally agree. I come back all the time. 20:21 is like butter to my ears. I wish I could live in this forever
Butter is such a perfect word to describe that sound 🤣 I love it and I would’ve loved to have heard more piano stuff like that
Whatching this footage, I can feel the frustration and anxiety in these sessions. Most folks have no clue what a grind the recording and writing process can be. And these guys are masters of their craft. Nothing but respect. 15:28
In 2004 I was 15. My dad wanted to see Switchfoot and Mutemath opened for them. The energy in the room is still unmatched and nothing has ever felt as intense than that opening moment to Chaos. They were on another level it seemed. Ironically they got put into a Christian rock tour by WB and they sued the company for misrepresentation but it was one of those accidents that had to happen. The headliners were dwarfed in comparison but everyone felt it and the whole audience was in awe. I bought the album and their music has been in my life ever since. That's why we can't let live music die. The art of inspiration must be kept alive.
this is amazing
Whether they see it themselves or not, these guys are some of the most talented and significant musical minds of our era. I'm sure this is just a glimpse into what an onlooker could never possibly comprehend in regards to the amount of work put into each track; however, the final product that Mutemath creates is simply awe-inspiring. The uniqueness, lyrical content and overall sound of what these guys produce is something a word could never describe. I feel grateful to be alive during the time in which Mutemath produces music.
Oddly enough, I was listening to their newest single, "Monuments" and RUclips suggested this video (Armistice is my favorite Mutemath LP, although I love them all). Ironically, I'm watching and half glance down at my shirt only to realize I'm wearing a Mutemath tee. Ha, irony. Love you guys, been with you since the beginning and can't wait for "Vitals." I can't even imagine the blood, sweat and tears put into it but I can tell you two things for certain; I cannot wait to hear the album and I'm looking forward to hearing it live.
Josiah Perry I agree with everything you said but im a grammar Nazi so I thought you should know that what you called irony isn't actually irony. Its merely coincidence.
Spot on!
This documentary is so nostalgic
I'm really going to miss both of you. best of luck Darren and Roy
I’m a music head! From Bach, to Metallica, to Pat Metheny, to Brazilian Music…I worked at Arista Records at the peak of the pre-stream music industry, and at Virgin Megastore Times Square, with some of THEEEE biggest music heads in the world! Mutemath is my favorite band, The Beatles is at the top 5! I believe that says something about what I feel and the quality of this band, and its contribution to the music scene!
god that spot light piano solo is just blowing my mind
Mutemath, if you see this, THANK YOU. Thank you for making this album! I have listened to it on repeat for years. All of your hard work was worth it, it's truly beautiful. There's so many layers to each song that I never get sick of it. Keep creating.
Man, I miss these guys working together.
At least they left us a lot to listen to
I love how their instruments and whatever else they're recording sound great WHILE recording.
I feel so grateful to have witnessed these guys play live together multiple times. I discovered them around 2010? @ the Electric Factory in Philly when they opened for Thirty Seconds To Mars. They absolutely blew me away. I remember watching Darren wrap his head in tape, and thinking "wtf?, my man isn't playing around". You know something interesting is about to happen when you see a drummer start tapeing his headphones around his whole face, and head haha. They were focused, and played tight. They sounded so good, and instantly became a "must see" band for me. I went on to see them several more times as the headliner. I would even do Philly, and Baltimore on the same tour. As great as their albums are, they were on a whole other level playing live. If you like/love a band, Go.. See them live! Don't assume they will be around forever. Life happens, and "Changes" happen. Appreciate the music , support the bands you love, and Go See Them! Who knows, maybe we'll all get lucky 1 day and see the return of the mighty Mutemath. They have my support, and I'll be ready if it happens
This is awesome. Hearing them create the now-famous opening synth patch for 'Clipping' (@8:00) for the very first time was a high point for me.
Agreed. What board is that? Sounds FM.
Joshua C Looks like a Roland Juno 106...
Jon Turner def a Roland. Looks a bit like my old alpha juno.
Paul Meany, Matt Slocum, & Tyler Joseph... these are my musical heroes of my lifetime. Geniuses at their craft.
I met the band and Paul and his family a couple of times and they are so down to earth and amazing people. Darren was the most consistent and talented drummer I’ve ever met. My dad and I developed a friendship a specially with Paul and it was so amazing to me to meet him because I’ve been listening to their music since I was 18 months old and it felt like meeting my hero. Farewell Mutemath I will miss you deeply and Paul or Darren or anyone else in the band sees this I love you guys and your music has been the soundtrack of my life...
I'm just now realizing I've had the opportunity to spend 5 immensely lucky nights spanning over 11 years with a bunch of musical geniuses. Armistice has layers and layers of music attached to it. Those rhythmic pieces come one after another, they circle from every angle. You find sounds and mash them together to make orchestra. Everyone past and present has made this band devoutly special.
Man, early mutemath was something else entirely
Dang I miss Greg seeing this, what he brought.
I love all the Mutemath albums, but Armistice is my favorite. I love these guys so much and can't wait for what they bring us in 2015. Darren promised me!
This band is so percussively and melodically interesting 💯
Darren King... the human drum machine
Here I am watching this in 2023. Armistice Live is on my all-time top 10 albums. Seeing them live in 2007 was such an experience.
I love that they have there own sound.
Just reminded me of why MuteMath is one of my favorite bands. Good stuff, thanks for sharing :-)
I sincerely hope you guys never stop making music. Nothing comes even close to the talent and creativity that is in that New Orleans house.
I got bad news for you, Simon.
They're one of my favorite bands of all time.
+Aidan Moore They are homophobes who are probably racist as well...hate is hate....is hate, is hate.........
@@me-lq7go according to who?
@@colingiles4251 Yo momma
i could watch this everyday. Miss you guys!
this doco should have 27,000,000 views FFS! creative genius at work here...so inspiring as a musician to see this process. My favourite album of Mutemath's for sure. Keep up the great work guys...big love from Australia
fuck man watching this just makes me sad knowing it wont be the same again now
I still enjoy watching the chemistry and magic that Darren and Paul had. Just from a human perspective. I hope they can mend their friendship and have eachother outside of Mutemath.
Thank you for sharing this!
This is generally so amazing to watch. Sad that things are not like this anymore for Paul. I hope something can revive them.
Clipping is genuinely one of my favourite songs ever. And I wouldnt throw that phrase around lightly. IMHO, I think that song is flawless. Everything about it is just perfect to me. I groove thoroughly anytime it’s on.
Just finished this and had a smile plastered on my face the entire time. You guys do some of the most amazing work of any band out there and the joy that you get from it, even through the trials, is *always* there. I love you all and can't wait to see you on the new tour. Thank you for always coming through North Carolina and always being incredible. I can't wait to see what the future album (2017) brings.
Seeing my favorite band's creative process means everything to me! And it's been while since I listened to Forte. Must go and listen to Armistice now!
AGHHHHHHH! SO GOOD! Thanks for sharing this guys!!!!!
Incredible video. Really fantastic to hear bits of raw sound that I recognize from tracks I love.
Damn. I miss this.
Never gets old. Watching this since 2017-2022
thanks so much for sharing this with us....... i know those times were hard but the best in life and never forgotten...... making music with other peoples is awesome
Inspiring in so many ways before a recording
I lost it when the roach started running around to "The Nerve"! xD
loved it, Would like to see you guys do this every album. It gives us just a glimpse into your process as song writers and musicians. Loved it.
Thanks for this gift, guys! Realy amazing watch how the best album (for me) was started. And please, come to Brazil!
you all are musical geniuses!
South American Tour PLEASE !
regards from Chile
A look into creating magic. I am a fan for life.
Watching in 2022, still amazing how talented these guys are. Mutemath is truly unique in their kind of music production, its so exciting as the moment passes. Would really appreciate if they could bring back their sound in this age of EDM dominating the music scene. Alternative rock still has many listeners I do believe.
So inspired to make music, ive watched this a million times, magic.
R.I.P. Loved every moment with you guys.
I love how you guys make so many sounds from anything you think might work out, as a fellow musician i Live watching the process, it's always amazing. Greetings from Sunny Cape Town South Africa, please PLEASE come and visit!!!!!
Amazing process you guys have for making awesome music!!!
Again, so enjoyable watching this again for the 100th time. It's sad because they're no longer. It's not a social matter because they were never huge. MUTEMATH is the real deal and Paul is an awesome producer.
Amazing band. Super talented and great music and what a live show. Hope they come back to the UK soon.
I love this band!
Long life Mutemath...
Man, nicely done gentlemen. It was good to see Mr. Hill again too. Loved getting to get a look at the recording process, all the different instruments y'all use.
These guys are so freaking talented!
Love this!
I loved watching this when it first came out! :D
As someone coming up and rising to the top of this industry real soon this is golden. I know you see this Paul ❤️ ✌🏼
Amazing guys & team ! ty x the music !
yo siempre lo he pensado tener talento no es sufuciente hace falta $. Bs.amigos talentosos y tiempo inclusive para aplastar una cucaracha
I fan-Boyes out when u played Orlando unplugged and then at the house of blues. I miss Greg but man I giggle and smile and reminisce and dance and enjoy all the music you put together
comeback to colombia love when u come here!! and want to see ur new album in action !!!
Phenomenal!
Second comment. I come back to this album time and time again and am always so immersed in it. Not sure if it got the praise it deserved, but know that one dude thinks it's amazing and appreciates that you made it.
You have no idea how amazing you are. I really enjoyed watching!
man the good ole days
Inspirational video.
I wish this was a few hours longer.
Just pause at the 21:53 and cry
I cried
Y'all seriously need to score a movie! And re-release with the extended instrumental versions of the tracks.. That would be SO DOPE!
That's how it's done! Very nice.
ART Motivation!!,Beautiful🤩💪🏿💞

Great album
Yes.

8.00 the birth of clipping oh god im shitting my pants thats incredible

best band ever!
PLEASE COME TO MIAMI! MORE DOCUMENTARIES ABOUT YOUR ALBUMS AND TOURS INCLUDING EACH INDIVIDUALS BIO PLEASE!
BUT MIAMI FIRST! LOL
Genios
Darren plz get back to Mutemath. The synergy you create is magic.
Not a single bottle of alcohol drinked, smokin doobie or messin w hos. Just work ethic, discipline and dedication with insane creativity. Just Real, cool nerd shit. Miss those days ...
What Audio/video stuff did you guys use for this documentary? It's really excellent
I laughed so hard at how well the music matches the bug chase at 11:37 min. 😂 And the goof voicying at 7:37 min 🤣Is that Paul's voice?
What song is that at 13:48? Unreleased?
If you were my neighbours, I'd have hung around there every free minute. 😁 I really admire your creativity, guys, and I'm getting really sad when I think that I will probably never see you guys perform live again as Mutemath. 😢 But you know how the saying goes: Hope dies last.
The song at 13:48 became “Electrify.” In the video I believe that was an early draft/idea for a new song that eventually ended up becoming Electrify
Darren, how did you figure out that thing with the bell on your hats? That ish is dope.
2023❤
Clipping!!!!!
@mutemath Where can i get an acoustic piano like that? its amazing.
the drummer has got skillz
So Burden came out of attempts to compose a song within a single day? That's really interesting, if I interpreted the documentary correctly. Easily one of their best songs alongside Clockwork and Clipping
2021
This was great! Any way you can upload in better video quality?
(Almost) 24 minutes of fooling around and making music.... A true band is here
Does anyone know what song is playing at the very end of the documentary? (21:45) I absolutely love it
It's a track by MM called 'Forte'. They released it to people attended listening parties for Armistice before it was released.
/watch?v=hlcJOibSR50
I can't even see the source of the double snare hits at around 30 seconds.
anyone knows how is the first scene´s microphone name? on the overhead
i lov : angentina
