All these people bitching about marcus's vocals obviously have no idea what its like to scream and sing and run around on stage for over an hour straight
FlyingVHockey and you know how it is? To scream? Ok. Y, Sam carter, Drew York, cleb (beartooth) can scream an hour? Cuz they make it the other way, then it does Marcus. I don't say that Marcus can't sing. He can. And very good. But in scream I'd rather prefer the old vocalist.
Moran Flog have you seen caleb? He doesn't sing half the time and even then its more pitchy than marcus. I know what its like to scream for a long time, it takes a toll on your voice and it takes a lot a lot more breath and force than singing so its inherently more tiring. Marcus did sick, he had the full package, screamed well, sang well, and kept up an energetic stage persona. Not even a big nothlane fan and I can see that he did well.
People not liking his scream has nothing to do with the performance, its just that his tone is a bit monotone and just plain boring. Adrian had a better dynamic going on with his voicy fry yells and those bone crushing lows.
Just for the record Marcus has always been amazing, what people are picking up is confidence, I fell Marcus is just becoming more confident in the role of the Northlane front man. Hence his deliver is becoming more powerful.
@@davidhampton7982 I went to school with Adrian. Dude was an amazing bloke. He writes insane lyrics. I'm not the biggest marcas fan but i won't say marcas isn't a fantastic singer. Adrian lyrics are god tier across multiple songs. I still prefer Adrian.
Kinda the sad nature of the human voice is that after you scream a lot in one session it's difficult to hold cleans for a long time with perfect pitch, as it is, Marcus does a pretty solid job. Live vocals are hard, kids.
Bullsh*t called here. I have watched Howard Jones transition between cleans and highs flawlessly. also note spencer sotello and M. Shadows. It all comes down to practice and form. Allot of vocalists these days just do shit on record that they know is impossible for them to do live. In this case here it is the case of marcus singing someone elses vocal line. It wasnt written with his vocal ability in mind. Adrian had a completely different patter and method compared to Marcus. Also Marcus hasnt been doing this that long in retrospect. Give him 2 years and i bet he will nail everything always.
chris M. Shadows and Howard have lower register voices that allow more controllable power and screaming mostly fucks with upper register an Head voice. Spencer is definitely inhuman through, he's a beast.
Clearly you're never discovered mr. Devin Townsend who is able to scream, growl and sing perfectly fine and better than most. He is the man that debunks this entire comment!
Marcus can't scream, check 1:21, his cleans are way louder than his "screams" which are just lost behind the music. Adrian did fry shouts, Marcus does fry screams (which are pretty creaky and quiet and weak)
Keep in mind this was their last song on of a headlining set, so it more than likely came close to an hour and 30 minute. His voice of been worn as fuck by the time they played this. I say marcus is an insane vocalist for still even being able to pull of the lows on that considering how long they had played for.
There's finally a good quality live video of this song, yet it's Marcus and not Adrian. Not discrediting Marcus, he sounds decent here, but there's like no good quality videos of Adrian doing this song and that disappoints me
Northlane rocks and, in my opinion, with Marcus, their new stuff is even more lit. I need shows to come back, man oh man, I wanna see them live so badly. I saw them with Adrian and they were good but I need to see them with Marcus!
to everyone complaining about marcus' vocal.. stfu. go to a show and hear him live, or watch another video. this guy smashes and is better suit for northlane anyways. You're also getting direct mic live feed from this video so you get to hear every single nuance lol
Mitch Hazel if you understood vocals you’d understand that he uses fry screams. Fry screams are not about volume they are about tone. So him cupping the mic is cause the screams themselves aren’t very loud.
@@stannats1493 No excuse for cupping the mic. The tone always goes to shit when people do that. If your screams are lower volume than your clean singing, then hold your microphone away a bit during the clean singing parts, and move it closer during the screams.
Dude just attempt to sing the ending chorus in the octave he's at... you'll see realize how fucking amazing Marcus is. Given you would even be able to get anything but voice cracks if even that.
You can take any vocalist and take their last performance and they will not sound as good as they did in the first song. ANY Vocalist. pick one. Oli, Corey, CJ, check.
Benjamin Smith yeah even the most consistant vocalist imo Dan Tompkins von Tesseract fucks up his last songs haha Marcus is a fucking beast I saw him life a couple months ago and he hit every note actually and his stage presence has improved so much
just to give the example, back in the day oli used to force his voice to scream the last song just like the first one. and today he lost his voice because of this. this people dont know shit.
Yeah man, exactly hahahaha. They both has the same appearance (With black facemask, the dressup) but Sabian is much more aggressive on stage though. Love them both!
Izmeq Fenner Jon did it 6 months + earlier then everyone else though and the only reason he's not as aggressive as Sabian is because he's not playing easy shit,It's cool other people are doing similar get ups but it should be clear who the originator is.
I️ hear you, I️ feel like this album was more suited for Adrian cause it’s more powerful & Adrian had a lot of that in his vocals. Marcus fits really well in Northlane tho imo, especially in the direction the band is going, not sure if Adrian could be able to fit well with their newer sound
Those screams are actually insane. Cleans aren'tperfect but they're still freakin great! They had also clearly been on stage a while already and the screams are savage and on point, killed it.
1:21 OMG his "screaming" is quieter than his cleans? WTF? If you can't do loud fry screams, just reduce the volume at least so people don't understand it's fake... Adrian was waaay better at screaming. Marcus is awesome when it comes to cleans though
I dont like the guitar tone at all and Marcus doesn't sound that great eitherI know that this is still just a live recording and they sound great live, but it is still surprisingly disappointing
All these people bitching about marcus's vocals obviously have no idea what its like to scream and sing and run around on stage for over an hour straight

why do you think he left the band?
What's your point? We know countless other bands where the vocalist can sing, scream and run around the stage while actually sounding good.
Marcus is an amazing vocalist. That's all I have to say about that.
I love Northlane
Life is like a box of marcus', you never know what your going to get
Marcus can't scream, check 1:21, his cleans are way louder than his "screams" which are just lost behind the music
@@angryktulhu i totally agree, he always makes the crowd sing “Set me free” which is the base of the song
@@angryktulhu
Can't scream?
Their new album 'Alien' disagrees with you.
Their new singer has definitely stepped his game up
not rly
S A D since 2001 this beats Adrain live... dude would talk the words
@@MrNotYet1 stfu. He has. He was weak as hell to start. Now he is a beast
@@MrNotYet1 Then you have obviously not listened to Northlane like ever since Marcus initally joined.
Marcus can't scream, check 1:21, his cleans are way louder than his "screams" which are just lost behind the music
What a frontman, fucking hell marcus has gotten so much better, his stage presence is amazing, the rest of the band killed it as usual
Just for the record Marcus has always been amazing, what people are picking up is confidence, I fell Marcus is just becoming more confident in the role of the Northlane front man. Hence his deliver is becoming more powerful.
Zeke my thoughts exactly
I don't know why people are bagging marcus cleans, Adrian's cleans were not exactly stellar
nootnoot Adrian was a horrible singer lol
Adrian couldn't sing. Lol he and the rest of the band said that
@@davidhampton7982 I went to school with Adrian. Dude was an amazing bloke.
He writes insane lyrics. I'm not the biggest marcas fan but i won't say marcas isn't a fantastic singer. Adrian lyrics are god tier across multiple songs. I still prefer Adrian.
@@jemezbriton534 Adrian better with those lyrics no doubt. but Marcus, he's the one who can sing it consistent
@@fd.evansyah6212 nah, Adrian’s lyrics were sick, but Alien touches me like nothing else

AlarmCopter holding perfect pitch for a while is hard enough as is.

He really threw it all into the vocals there, love the amount of effort he put to hold it all together for a live session, it's impressive.
Watch Dogs is a guitarist?
the fact that you said Watch Dogs and not Adrian Pierce (or whatever he's called, never played the game) is hilarious.
Raul Lopes JAJAJAJAJAJAJA te la volaste
Wow just wow marcus! You are a beast!! One of the best vocalist live.. fuck all the haters
Keep it up Northlane you guys are awsome👍👍
I cant believe how low the bass goes at 0:47 and the tone is still so pure
MrCobbleFarts Dingwall baby
it's literally just a 5 string
0:47 is a regular F. 5 seconds before it's one octave lower and is still relatively clear. What i'm always amazed at is how clear the Ab is
@@35mm
And?
Keep in mind this was their last song on of a headlining set, so it more than likely came close to an hour and 30 minute. His voice of been worn as fuck by the time they played this. I say marcus is an insane vocalist for still even being able to pull of the lows on that considering how long they had played for.
Only took me 9 years to discover/subsequently become obsessed with this tune
There's finally a good quality live video of this song, yet it's Marcus and not Adrian. Not discrediting Marcus, he sounds decent here, but there's like no good quality videos of Adrian doing this song and that disappoints me
This guy sings like a boss! All who claim differently have obviously never sang on stage.
Marcus' growls havin gotten so much better recently! Holy shit!
im just frothin on how sick Nic's kit sounds.
its either the sound guy is a magician or nic is a magician, or... both lol.
Sounding great. stoked for the new album!
Marcus sounds YUGE.
Northlane rocks and, in my opinion, with Marcus, their new stuff is even more lit. I need shows to come back, man oh man, I wanna see them live so badly. I saw them with Adrian and they were good but I need to see them with Marcus!
now thats a band who can play their own songs perfectly live
Marcus you are killing it, man!
I like this!!! Great performance
to everyone complaining about marcus' vocal.. stfu. go to a show and hear him live, or watch another video. this guy smashes and is better suit for northlane anyways. You're also getting direct mic live feed from this video so you get to hear every single nuance lol
2:48 a flying shoe
i know not many would agree but i would've preferred if you guys had done one of these videos with a song from node!
2:21 Marcus can do some super lows when he wants to.
that was more of a mic cup than anything, not a real low
Not at all a mic cup.
Mitch Hazel if you understood vocals you’d understand that he uses fry screams. Fry screams are not about volume they are about tone. So him cupping the mic is cause the screams themselves aren’t very loud.
@@stannats1493 pretty sure he uses False Chord
@@stannats1493 No excuse for cupping the mic. The tone always goes to shit when people do that. If your screams are lower volume than your clean singing, then hold your microphone away a bit during the clean singing parts, and move it closer during the screams.
YES.
Y'ALL bitching about Marcus' cleans...listen to #Mesmer enough said.
really nice live perfomance! maybe i should cover this song next after my studio cover of initiation that is already done
Great Band, great sound.
Love this! Also what kind of tall tee is Marcus wearing. Because I want one. Like what's the brand
that bass is so next level :o
still beautiful
Everybody says Northlane is a futurist band. Hell yeah! They even took precautions for COVID-19 in 2017 for fucks sake.
Alex Milovic loqueando como siempre!!!!! Maestro!
hose vocals at the end... chills
I love Marcus
1:54 Come on Marcus. You've got the click track in your ears, you can't expect the crowd to sing that in time!
This also sounds slower than the studio recording
I really want his jacket (bloke with the hat)
MELHOR BANDAAAA
simm cara
Dude just attempt to sing the ending chorus in the octave he's at... you'll see realize how fucking amazing Marcus is. Given you would even be able to get anything but voice cracks if even that.
Can someone explain to me what's up with the guitarists sudden naruto mask wearing phase ?
Outfuckingstanding
When you tune so low that the speakers can't stand it
nic why u keep changing time sigs man i wanna play your songs :(
see you in Hammersonic fest
how about uploading a columbus video before you upload more northlane ones please.
omg the high melodies!!!
2:49 Why can't you see a shoe is flying right in your face?
You can take any vocalist and take their last performance and they will not sound as good as they did in the first song. ANY Vocalist. pick one. Oli, Corey, CJ, check.
I mean, Oli is shit in every song now. But I agree with the sentiment. Other than Sam from Architects, that man is perfect start to end currently
Benjamin Smith yeah even the most consistant vocalist imo Dan Tompkins von Tesseract fucks up his last songs haha Marcus is a fucking beast I saw him life a couple months ago and he hit every note actually and his stage presence has improved so much
just to give the example, back in the day oli used to force his voice to scream the last song just like the first one. and today he lost his voice because of this. this people dont know shit.
"we do Northlane"
go watch a video of BMTH perform anything new and tell me Marcus can't sing live
I'm kinda happy Marcus cut his hair, now we can actually see his face when he performs lmao
DAMN NIC IS SWOLL AF!!!!!!
I'm relatively new to the Northlane fandom, what's with Jon wearing the mask all of a sudden?
Corona virus
Fuuuuuck I'm so ready for their new project
not sure if sabian of alpha wolf or jon of northlane on guitar lmao ay
Jons the og
Yeah man, exactly hahahaha. They both has the same appearance (With black facemask, the dressup) but Sabian is much more aggressive on stage though. Love them both!
Izmeq Fenner Jon did it 6 months + earlier then everyone else though and the only reason he's not as aggressive as Sabian is because he's not playing easy shit,It's cool other people are doing similar get ups but it should be clear who the originator is.
Thanks for the explanation dude, now everything is clear. But would love to see those two guys meet up with each other lololol.
why are the drummer and the other dude wearing masks?
Sean Malloy edge
Why not
SARS
siii
Marcus is an amazing vocalist, but it looks like he's out of breath during performing this song.
Totally agree!
it was the last one of this set so it makes sense
He still sounds good though, I’ll give him that.
Last song of the set. You would be out of breath after 6 minutes lel.
2:16 your reason for being here
Nothing against Marcus, but this song sounds good with Adrian.
John Monteiro This was the last song of the set. He's tired. Adrian couldn't make it past 30 minutes live.
I️ hear you, I️ feel like this album was more suited for Adrian cause it’s more powerful & Adrian had a lot of that in his vocals. Marcus fits really well in Northlane tho imo, especially in the direction the band is going, not sure if Adrian could be able to fit well with their newer sound
Adrian used a different technique for screaming and it sounded way better
3:42 INFINITE, POTATO
Is the guitarist afraid of getting pigeon flu or something?
2:48 yeet
Marcus never sings the entire intro the cleans in that part are so good but he never finishes it
holy shit
Those screams are actually insane. Cleans aren'tperfect but they're still freakin great! They had also clearly been on stage a while already and the screams are savage and on point, killed it.
you mad bro? Marcus can't scream, check 1:21, his cleans are way louder than his "screams" which are just lost behind the music
he said STAND me free in the start no? :D
I didn't know Adrian from watch dogs played guitar
marcus’s seems lower than usual, am i the only
one who hears this?
Beautiful
Why would you give Marcus' live performance shit? It's fucking way better than Adrian, just the records are worse with him
2:38 take a shit, close your eyes and just dream?
Marcus got a lot better
marcus sounds sick in this video. not like awesome, like ill. every other video his voice is a little higher and live his voice wasn't this deep
Adrian Fitipaldes the best. !!!
Whys the guitarist wearing a mask?
Erick Delko 🅱 E S T H E T I C
Adrian come baaaaack
lol marcus had so much fun he barely finished his sentences and even forgot his vocal range in the end 😂😂
Sing the fuckin cleans pal for christ sake
2:00 ahhhh so painful
1:21 OMG his "screaming" is quieter than his cleans? WTF? If you can't do loud fry screams, just reduce the volume at least so people don't understand it's fake... Adrian was waaay better at screaming. Marcus is awesome when it comes to cleans though
u alright?
I dont like the guitar tone at all and Marcus doesn't sound that great eitherI know that this is still just a live recording and they sound great live, but it is still surprisingly disappointing
New singer ain't as good
clean part sucked..
I hate those masks that they wear lol.
Wow this guy botches the vocals hard!! Saw them do this song with Adriane a few years ago....blew this out of the water
those cleans aren't clean.
fucking hell adrian, how did you let this happen
adrian couldnt scream live anymore, this was their last song of a 12 song set, he's exhausted. Adrian couldnt make it through a half hour show
platelegs did you even see adrian after half an hour? He didnt last, nor could he sing that well live
2:23 such an untalented screamer...
My god, marcus is terrible. That half scream/half talk is putrid. Just do one or the other.
George Leggott Disagree... that's exactly what Adrian used to do. And both sound good.
marcus shouldn't be singing this :/
Awful camera work
Mmmmyeah. Vocals are horrid.
