They're clapping and cheering when indicated to, and at the end of songs or solos. And naturally no audience on the planet except for Jacob Collier possibly claps in time, that too with time signature changes and syncopation like Polyphia
@@aniketacharya512 I live in Japan and went to the Polyphia concert in Tokyo--the Japanese crowd is definitely more muted (the Osaka crowd here is actually louder than it was in Tokyo, which is unsurprising given the rep of Osakans). The more muted nature of their concert-watching has its downsides, namely that they have no idea what the fuck crowdsurfing is haha, Polyphia even paused a song at one point to get people to start crowdsurfing.
They could learn alot about stage presence from a band like The Warning. Once the Warning saw how being statuesque was keeping the audience distant, the worked on moving and engaging their audience. Both benefited
The playing is extremely technical. They've openly talked about it, basically every song in their discography is fucked to pull off live. I think we can cut them some slack.
Japanese people have a culture of concentrating on appreciation rather than making a fuss at a concert. They want to hear only the sound that the artist makes, not the noisy voice of the person next to them. Of course, this has both good and bad sides.
I know it looks kinda lame on the video but I was in the front I can assure you we were more than hyped up, every time a song or a solo started we cheered like crazy, my voice was completely gone after the concert too haha
jap audiences are quiet and respectful - opting to enjoy the music itself than to disrupt it. Alot of musicians feel their actual work is better appreciated there.
Japanese concert cultures a bit like this. They are more quiet and not as heavy movements as to not disturb other people’s experiences. Not every japanese concert is like this but majority are.

A concert without people talking/screaming all over the music, amazing. I need to be in Japanese crowds.
nah them clapping off beat sounds more irritating

@@aniketacharya512 fair but it still hurts to hear 😭

@@genericereal I'd rather not get kicked in the head 15 times on front row; really not a fan of crowdsurfers 😅
guitar tones on this one seem way better than before, champagne sounded incredible
they do try to improve their live shows over the years, they used to show up to these drunk and butcher every song about 5 years ago
They started using JCM 800s instead of modelers. ruclips.net/video/qwfusuyCgIo/видео.html
@@Riyoe pretty sure they still showup drunk but they gotten way much better at performing live
genesis sounds so crispy
"loud" concert version is just pure perfection
24:20 lol wholesome Polyphia moment.
44:02 what moment is this ? 😂
@@paulgilbert3139 Just Tim is a human being
Bruh this concert is sick their synchrony and song choice of order is perfect
I need more Polyphia live recordings.
Whoever was in charge of the sound deserves the nobel peace prize
So lucky you got to go! I hope to get tickets to their next tour.
Thank you for sharing this !!!
1:10:25 probably not Clay Gober's best move lmao
Gold comment
Really need to upgrade the lightshow ala the babymetal video. Great show sonically ❤
Neurotica was unfortunately a trainwreck.
scott also did lmao😂
Great!
крутые пацаны
This Marshall amps without any wire plugged in. It's all digital nowadays (and I think it's great). So amps and cabs are decorations only.
they do use the amps tim said in one of his ask tim vids they use the power amp and cabs from the marshals and effects are from the quad cortex
They are not decorations.
i think its feedback for the band
not decoration. just really REALLY fancy monitors basically lol.
44:02 i love polyphia but that was a fucked up right there 🤣
Its also super dark, I wonder how can they manage that haha
me playing in my room
tim just made a intentional mistake to cover up the fact that he’s not human
lmao it was dark

@@d4rkblu386 I was thinking the same, and tbh just from playing they must be already extremely tired, it takes a lot of stamina
try running or jumping around the stage while playing extremely technical guitar music, and tell me you can play cleanly.
I rather have the band play energetically and precisely than have them jump around and perform some weird stage acrobatics.
i wanna see you move around on stage playing something as difficult as this on guitar
thats probably the most underwhelming wall of death i have ever seen
japanese people aren’t ig that “outgoing” as other westerners are I suppose.
i feel like the atmosphere was not quite there, crowd was kinda lame
japanese concert culture its just like that
@@ferraka2686show up early, stand in the same spot the whole time, cheer only when the bands tells them to. it do be how it is.

this is pretty typical for japanese concert crowds...its kinda just their culture
Japanese audiences want to concentrate on appreciation rather than noise. You don't want to hear the sound of the guy next to you.
That's what you get for a well behaved country :)
