Finally conclusive proof that this isn't Sam Gendel and Louis Cole. This show is in Europe; those guys live in America. Those places aren't the same at all and very far apart.
ME: Well maybe they could have traveled. CIA HANDLER: Have you got a lock on the target? CIA AGENT: Affirmative, sir! ME: As much as Louis Cole travels, he and Sam could have purchased airplane... CIA HANDLER: FIRE! ME: *lol dead*
I hate to say it but this video released 2 months ago europe, which i assume was the start of their european tour, i live in ireland, and im going to see louis cole TOMORROW Checkmate my guy🤣
@kevin cullen yeah, well not only did I see Knower last September and Clown Core in February, I'm going to see LC in Manchester on Wednesday and London on Friday! ;o)
Wrong. Imagine thinking this is good. Problem with music nowadays is shit like this is appreciated and held in reverence. It's what we would call USB music back in the day for edm shit. Shtitty drumming, sax is a jumbled mess of sounds, using a keyboard to make the overused sounds in abudance. All in all, fuck all in this. And "Clown core", name or not is funny to me. As in a laughing at them, not with them approach. Hardly heavy, hardly anything musically, just a bunch of clownhorns out of structure, hence could never be in structure outside of comedy. So all in all, these guys wish they were like Yucko the Clown. Talent, be it comedic, or musically, anything where talent can reside, they'd take it. This was a copy paste of a shitty comment made earlier. Clown core is easy to hate, hell anything is with no talent, plus they are fucking garbage. Funny way of spelling it considering you are spelling it with an "A" instead of a "G", unless you are thinking about Ass. Then sure. Ass-awe.
I feel strange, normally totally relate to metal live vibes. Been telling people to listen to Clown Core so many times. But for some reason, and I can't explain why, I would just love to sit down and enjoy them live in a quiet audience. Then again, might feel totally different when I actually get to see them live (if ever).
@@eeyoreyeen I don't recall saying anything about moshing being reserved to metal or not. Just said that I would love to see clown core live with a more reserved audience.
I believe the truth and beauty of Clown Core is that it encompasses the whole of our existential dread and re-gifts it as the shitty joke that it always was.
Not necessarily my normal thing, but I have to give it to these guys, some of the most original stuff I've seen in quite a while. I would love to experience it live! Infectious groove.
Once the damn box finally opened up, it was pretty cool. Catchy pulsating opening riff and killer use of the lights! Beats playing inside a van, I guess. Nice to see them getting some attention.
I'm very happy with how well it came out considering it was shot on a cheap phone. I'm not a big fan of gig videos but this was a once in a lifetime experience that I travelled a thousand miles to see so there was no way I was leaving without some record... and it turned out as good as this
As ridiculous and brilliant as Clown Core can be! This is truly "performance art" in the original sense of the term. Great work on the lights and visuals, with white tux and tails!
I know this may seem unpossible but they’re genuinely very, very talented musicians. The rhythm section is a two-for-one deal and the sax playing is sublime. I’m on the moon.
6:12 onward blew my mind when I first heard it. I thought he was going to play the solo he plays in the album version but this guy got chops to spare 😂
Goddamn, thank you for sharing this. I'll probably never get to see Clowncore live, but I hope they do more shows. They seem better live, and that's just amazing.
Made total sense when I found out the drummer is Louis Cole and Sax Player is Sam Gendel. Knower is tight, but Louis has so many different facets to his style and gets to really exploit that here. They need to open for Muele!

I came looking for this comment! When I studied French in middle school, we (American kids) saw a video that showed a boulangerie window full of books titled "PAIN" and laughed our asses off. :D
I absolutely love how this barely fits into any genre. When people talk about chords being reused in hundreds of songs Clown Core will never be part of that conversation and I Fucking love it
@@bigfacedboy Thanks for sharing these two videos. Not sure how I stumbled upon this, and unsure of what I just watched, but it’s fucking awesome. I imagine this is pretty intense as a live performance, and quite the sensory overload to take it in all at once. Looking forward to finding out more about them. Good stuff!
It's like I'm cursed to miss concerts by several weeks. I missed PUP live back in September because I wasn't into them until October. I missed Clown Core by 2 weeks because I didn't see their video that was 10 months old until then. But at least I'll see Ne Obliviscaris in November.
Thank you for posting this up, not bad quality too for being shot with a tater. I am an old rocker just discovering CC and other bands from around the world, and though not a heavy metal fan per-se, with a few of the old school exceptions, I started my rabbit hole this time with VOB a few months back, fantastic group, which oddly(or not) lead me to these folks, and man they do put on a show and a half! Latest find exploring was Viagra Boys, seriously wtf thrashing, entertaining as fk!
I'm old enough to love the old classic stuff but DAMN if there's not a lot of amazing music out today if you're willing to relax and just vibe with it. Love these clowns!
If you like Clowncore you should check out the drummer's other projects, they are literally all insane. His name is Louis Cole, he does solo stuff as well as being in a band called Knower.. but for starters you should look up "Vulfpeck Louis Cole It Gets Funkier IV", epic video 🥲
@@lindboknifeandtool Agree, frantically bizarre, but in a kinda good way, the vid I watched of them making noisy music in a parking lot stuck in my head a few years back, I'm glad they've carried on.
it takes watching 10 seconds of Lois Cole in his live sesh vids to conclude that this is, in fact, him. His playing style is exactly the same. his arms look the same through the costume. Even the video styles are exactly the same. Clowncore is 100% brilliance and talent. My life is forever better having heard them.
The fact that Genevieve said in an interview that her favourite band is Clown Core and that's clearly her standing to stage left confirms this in case it wasn't already obvious enough.
Speaking for the thousands upon thousands who may never get to see them play live... THANKS
Billions?
Godzillions
At least a clown car full.

We've had smooth jazz for nearly a century.
Welcome to rough jazz.
Jazz isnt dead. It just smells funny now
Only problem I had with their performance when I saw them in LA was it was way to short. Only 36 minutes. Other than that, it was great
We had 45 mins in Paris but I understand there were technical difficulties in LA.
Well hello Bobby!
you are the last person i would expect to listen to clown core
DIDN'T EXPECT YOU TO LISTEN TO THEM LOL
@@sirpotatousheadislimberg6346 tbh, now that i think about it, he is the type of guy to listen to something like this
"Please clap" Weak, submissive, needy for others approval
"Applause" Strong, dominant, knowing what you've got and others should like it too
Clowncore is one of those bands that you just can’t hate
They’re just fucking awesome
i hate clowncore but there songs are pretty awesome.

Plus Domi and JD Beck. They should open for each other!

Well put.
that’s deep
They're getting more confident with every show, they sound great
This is what a normal rock show would seem like to someone who had grown up in the wilderness.
I will never complain about people filming concerts anymore. Merci.
I was there in Amsterdam and it was one of the best things I've seen in years. It was an audiovisual experience like nothing I had ever experienced.
Must not have ever been to a Gwar show
Not necessarily my normal thing, but I have to give it to these guys, some of the most original stuff I've seen in quite a while. I would love to experience it live! Infectious groove.
Their Toilet and Van videos are well worth a look 😉
How could this ever possibly be your normal thing
speak for yourself @@bananaman8124
@@bananaman8124some people are just not normal, so their normal stuff is... Unusual...
I didn't know they performed live. This is amazing! 🙌
Iam loving the new resurgence of saxophone in music these days, reminds me of the 80,s
Holy crap they're incredible live
They've just announced a tour oct-nov this year👍
Once the damn box finally opened up, it was pretty cool. Catchy pulsating opening riff and killer use of the lights! Beats playing inside a van, I guess. Nice to see them getting some attention.
Seeing people mosh to jazz is amazing.
I mean, it's not only jazz hahah
Check out badbadnotgood
Go see Black Midi
Wish I was there too. Thanks for uploading this awesome clip. Good sound quality! Life is kinda cool sometimes.

As ridiculous and brilliant as Clown Core can be! This is truly "performance art" in the original sense of the term. Great work on the lights and visuals, with white tux and tails!
Indeed, and DJ Driver was also performance art at its finest.
You should check out KNOWER
Coolest thing I've seen in a long time! Gives me hope for innovation in music...💚🎸
Agreed!
Check out Imperial Triumphant if you haven’t already.
If you want to hear one of the greatest experimental bands of all time check out Zs. Alternating members so no record/era sounds the same.
I was also there. That was an incredible gig.
This was the best thing the YT algo delivered me in 5-10 years.
What a superbly done intro and lighting work
Maaan I had no idea they performed live, much less in Europe. Sheeeeeeeet I missed it
I wish they came to my country man
OK. I guess they're even cooler live then. I guess I need to see them live.
How can you not love these guys.
I know this may seem unpossible but they’re genuinely very, very talented musicians. The rhythm section is a two-for-one deal and the sax playing is sublime. I’m on the moon.

fucking amazing!

I wonder if the folks in Paris got confused when the screen just flashed "BREAD" at them at 5:32.
I think there were more English than French there...
English speaking people in the audience were laughing moshing and vibing
French on the other hand were complaining and saying baguette and shit..
I laughed so hard when saw it
I came looking for this comment! When I studied French in middle school, we (American kids) saw a video that showed a boulangerie window full of books titled "PAIN" and laughed our asses off. :D
Saw these guys at the Brooklyn show. Shit was an experience, man.
My girlfriend introduced me to these guys. I wanna marry her someday
I'm not sure I can heartily recommend marriage but she sounds like a keeper
Just saw the username. Are you sure you have a girlfriend?
@@spormlastname267 yup!
Me too.
AWESOME 😎 good for you guys nice to see you go from a van and Porta John to a stage with a porta john on it YOU GUY'S deserve it
So good! hope they will tour again soon :D
Thanks for sharing, looked really interesting
Wish they had come to Berlin! If you're reading this... know you have fans here!
Damn this was SO good!! I love seeing all those French fans dancing and having a blast!
Wowww¡¡ amazing show¡¡¡
Thanks my dude thanks a bunch for sharing this!!!!!
Would love to see this live!
Thank you RUclips algorithm for putting this as the first video I see today! 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
Frank Zappa would be looking down, tweaking his moustache and throwing a thumbs up.
Wow! One of the coolest things I’ve ever seen 🤩
Ofc u guys would love this
Holy shoot! They perform live!
This is the best thing i ever have seen.
Holy shit, that was incredible!
So good!
with such a small place, the mix sounds really good
It was pretty good and I'm particularly pleased with how good it sounds considering it was shot on a cheap phone.
Went the day after and what an incredible gig! DJ Driver was legendary!!
I would love to see them live. That would be fucking amazing.
That was unexpectedly amazing ❤❤❤❤
Always happy to hear of another convert to Clown Core. Now go and watch Toilet. Van and 1234.
Amazing
I would do unspeakable things to be present for a Clowncore show.
This is the music that plays in my dreams.
can't believe I was thereeeee IT WAS INSAAAAAAAAANE
Jazz is not dead, it just smells funny.
I would love to book you guys at DiveBar Las Vegas! You’d be a perfect fit
Finally! Music for my generation!
I absolutely love how this barely fits into any genre. When people talk about chords being reused in hundreds of songs Clown Core will never be part of that conversation and I Fucking love it
this genre is called anxiety jazz
@@boofert.washington2499 there's definitely chords
It's somewhat clown core. There are other similar bands who do that stuff too. Mr. Bungle started it, I think and all the others were inspired by them
Probably Avant-garde or experimental metal with a mix of jazz metal (I think idk)
"reusing chords"?
Im not that fond of clowns but this is fascinating I want to know more
Check out Van and Toilet.
Read in French accent:
Preety amazing!
I absolutely love clown core and luis cole and co.
Happy to see Clown Core still at it.
This was one of a kind!
The most incredible piece of performance art
@@bigfacedboy 100% right! 😭 wished there would be tickets to the second shot
I joined the moshpit, intensive show
This made my day! I wish I could see them play. Louis Cole is my hero.
gotta love louis cole
Not sure who he is... this is two other dudes who aren't Louis Cole and Sam Gendel 😂
Thats so sick. Damn I gotta see this😂
Gonna need the whole thing, buddy.
