This single song is worth the ticket price, gas, energy, waiting in line and dealing with people. Perfect song and such an epic experience to feel this song live!
Even worth catching a heavy flu in the packed venue that knocked me out for two weeks! Totally worth it!
@@stephanweinberger saw it twice now and still can't believe that finale... this band live is just something else, I really can't wait for the next tour again and hopefully they keep this as their encore!!
One song to rule them all. This piece of music is perfectly complete.
frumos formulat, bine punctat..! ;0)
Agreed
Exactly
CAN. NOT. BE. MATCHED.
I could listen to that outro on a loop all day. The way it builds up is mesmerizing.
Son: Dad, why is my sister's name Rose?
Dad: Because your Mother loves roses.
Son: Thanks, Dad.
Dad: No problem, LEPROUS - The Sky Is Red (Live Video 2020)
roses, thorns.
bahahaaa! a beautiful name. a holy name.
I laughed out loud hard as shit.
XD
It's a wonder that this meme never gets old.
This is hands down the gnarliest way to end a song. Unbelievable power.
they out-Meshuggah'd Meshuggah
I always describe the outro is like when you slowly get swallowed by a black hole.
@@MJ-vd8bj I swear if the outro had another loop, Baard would create a wormhole to send us all to another multiverse!
@@Nemesis_Slime "Phantoms" begs to differ
I actually looked through the catalouge. I stand corrected. They out meshuggahd meshuggah
Heaviest outro of the universe.
I love you
Opeth wants to see your location.
Not while The Dark Eternal Night is around.
This is definitely a pretty heavy outro but to me that goes to where dragons dwell by gojira and it is heavier in hellfest 2013 live version
@@jasonbelieve3556 Really? Gojira is one of my biggest inspirations, but the end of that song really drags for me. I'm used to slowburn music, but it just doesn't excite me like some of their other slowburn outros.
6:22 another china miss, the ultimate ghost note
Ahahah glad I wasn’t the only one that noticed. Maybe one day baard will keep the China within a mile of himself
@@ryanmamedov9347 he could keep it going by placing it at different times, inside jokes are viral
lmaoooo missed it before reading your comment
LMAO I literally screamed with the "ultimate ghost note"
are we sure the ghost note isnt intentional
My heart is pumping in 11/4. This whole performance was a visual and sonic masterpiece. The outro was intensely violent and chaotically beautiful.
Geezus that was good
I've been working on playing the drums for just the outro for over a year, still haven't nailed it yet. That hihat keeps stepping, I'm not convinced Baard is 100% made of people parts. He has drum machine DNA in his blood.
@@benjaminm.9700 he is probably one of the best drummers in the world, easy...
so I am not surprised it gets so hard for "simple people" to learn any of these drums
@@benjaminm.9700Yogev Gabay has a really good breakdown of it

Leprous is one of the few bands that are even better live. What a performance from the whole band.
That's one way I describe them to my musician friends, them and Gojira are my fav by far!
I saw them at the Royal Albert Hall last week and I wholeheartedly agree. They *are* better live. It was a shame their set was so short as I would have loved them to have played more. Having said that, it was a great set. No fillers etc.
Indeed. But really live, not RUclips-live.
I saw 'em in NL last month. Superb :)
Agent Fresco!
5:38 that big smile is exactly how I feel about the solo too!
I know. They never do guitar solos and then this dude lays down absolute ear sex out of nowhere on the last song of the album. The live version is virtually indistinguishable from the album. So good.
@@stickychocolate8155 I don't know if you had a chance to see their livestream concert in May but he also improvised a beautiful solo during Distant Bells in place of the usual cello solo and my god I really hope he gets to do more on upcoming albums!
I think I listened to the solo about 200 times, even Baard is amazing
he earned his own smile. He hit that solo perfectly :)
@@stickychocolate8155 i prefer the solo in Forced Entry more, but just barely
That guitar solo at 5:07 - 5:43 is incredibly tight. Doesn't quite unleash into all-out shredding but it doesn't need to. The restraint serves the melody so well and sets the song up for the epic outro.
It’s beautiful. But hard to pay attention to the guitar when Baard the octopus is going fucking ham
@Zach Peach Fortunately, Baard plays a lot lighter, with only the two drum fills and largely focusing on ghost notes for this segment of the song, which is what makes it resonate so strongly with me. The same restraint applies to the epic drudging outro, where the cello gets its moment to shine.
@@BenignViewer 110%, was it Tor doing the solo?? Either way, killer fucking song and the ending is just a cherry on top
@@zachpeach8255 It's Robin (Ognedal) doing the solo in this, although I have no doubt that Tor had input in writing it.
@@BenignViewer awesome!! I only first listened to leprous a couple months ago because of Tidals recommended tracks. Easily becoming one of my all time fav bands
That ending part is one of the best heavy music ever written. Hands down.
This is more than just a song. It's an incredibly great masterpiece.
Preach
Finally, this word is used in the correct context. It gets overused by the music clowns.
@@Ensource i hear that
One of the most epic breakdowns of all time. It transcends genre.
Finally saw this song live. Exceeded my already completely top level expectations.
Part of me wonders if the band set out to make the ultimate set closer. I don't know what could follow this, even from their own catalogue. Nothing says, "the show is over, you're welcome" quite like the close to this song.
The outro alone is worth all that. saw them live in Florida and holy shit it's worth way more than the 20$ ticket price
It's absolutely crazy live, I can attest to that.
I got to experience this live just a few days ago for the fifth time in a year and each and every time I'm crying my eyes out and feeling utterly exhausted in the end.. Absolutely blows my mind every freaking time.
I saw them live in Chicago 3 or 4 years ago. Easily the most amazing performance I've ever seen. They opened up for Haken, whom I absolutely love, and left that night liking Leprous a bit more than them.
Unfortunately, "The Sky is Red" hadn't been released yet, so I missed that one.
The highlights of their set, for me, were "The Valley" and "Mirage"
Unbelievable!
6:25 Baard learned nothing from the drum playthrough apparently. Still got that china all the way out of reach
LOL
it’s probably hard to see it when it’s just black and red
he put it so far away on purpouse so he won't use it too much.. he said so in an interview if im not mistaken.. :P
that’s smart, the china can be overpowering sometimes
Do You think it was not played exactly as it should ? :)
The person doing the lights gets clearly not enough credits for this epic show
Leprous is able to make any song of theirs sound better live
Seriously, I was about to say that. Every, damn, time.
thanks to Chris Edrich. Their sound engineer. A genius
schammasch
True
SatoriZei thank you so much! I had a blast mixing this one! :)
Seeing Mirage/The Sky is Red back to back in London was incredible. Shakes your foundations like nothing i've ever experienced!
Experienced the same thing in Istanbul show, their live shows are so impressive
Lucky dude! Saw Mirage in Chicago, before Pitfalls released. I'd kill to see those 2 back to back
man that was a sweet gig. They saved the best for last! (Bloody loved Foe too though)
I had an LSD experience about a month back and it was a "bad" trip. This song was playing as I was confronting my PTSD from prolonged isolation due to 3 and a half years of severe autoimmune disease and it was as if this was holding me together. I remember thinking that the whole time of my autoimmunity I should've at least been therapy because of the trauma I had endured and then as soon as 6:46 started I said to myself, "Oh... This is therapy..."
It was a dark subtle truth that hit much softer than I thought. But gratefully I've since healed about half a year ago. Confronting trauma is no joking matter and I'm grateful for Leprous making the music they've created. It's been my wire nonetheless. Thank You.
I'm aso glad to read this comment! Wish you all the best! Stay strong
João Filipe Thank you, I appreciate your attention to it
It is possible to treat trauma even afterward, but I'm glad you found a way to cope.
Juunana luckily I have friends and family I can talk to about hardships and to always keep them as the meaning in my life. Without them I’d be that much more lost
@@No_Enemies_Kale I'm glad to hear that! Wish friends, family and music will continue to help you :) I wish the best for you!
First time I saw them play this live, I didn't know the song - but it has such an insane tension and atmosphere that I remember just standing there transfixed and in awe. Kudos to the lighting designer, too - that outro with the spooky "siren" and perfectly timed lighting is utterly hypnotising.
Same for me, except I knew the song from the album and didn't click for me 'till I saw it live. Last song of an already amazing set, it upped the tension through the roof. I was already electric at the first release along the solo, but the ending got me whole, body and mind. What an experience!
I have been waiting for a quality live video of this song. This track is the reason why I can't wait to see Leprous live one day. Einar's vocal distortion in this version is fantastic. So is Baard's incredibly precise drumming. Heck, the whole band is killing it!
No one in this band is getting less than an A++ from me. Leprous is its own genre of metal.
Everytime I listen to this song, I get speechless at the final part!!! It's just something else completely
The same here. Cheers from Sweden!
@@jacobfreden8394 cheers from Brazil 🇧🇷
@@jacobfreden8394 Same! Cheers from Canada :)
The fact that this wasn't at the tippity top of my feed the second it came out is proof of how bad YT's algorithms are. I've only watched Baard's playthrough and several live phone videos of this song like 50 times, it's whatever.
There's no way to prepare yourself for something this good, so just ENJOY.
It's a masterpiece in terms of both performance and mix.
Chris is the man! He did a beautiful work on the mix as always
Thank you guys, happy you like it! :)
Performing this must be next level. I certainly wouldn't even attempt.
@@ChrisEdrich you mixed this? Sounds incredible dude! Hopefully see you around when we can all tour again.
Scott Kay yes I did, and had a lot of fun, thanks! And yeah, hopefully see you real soon! :)
Probably the best live recording and performance of a song I’ve ever watched.
Thanks!! :)
Yooo :D
Check out the recording of Slave at the Rockefeller Music Hall if you haven't already, it's also mind-blowing
The best song of the album for sure !
And first song and penultimate too
oh no...
@@Dm3qXY what's yours?
@@simonpraudayraud3685 i was just reacting worried at how many songs on the album resulted from that exchange, i don't know yet the other song..
Distant Bells
There is a sandstorm passing where I live and the sky is literally red. The song is oddly quite fitting. What an amazing performance by the whole band.
Having experienced this live, I can say this was the most violent thing that ever happened to me. God that editing in the last part. This is how it felt to be in the audience for that song! Amazing
I am was NOT ready to share Leprous with my friends, untill this track. Pitfalls is so special. :')
can't stop listening to this song...the drums...the melody...the guitar work...and those beautiful...stretching...euphoric vocals...i'm in love...i live for moments like this... x
Went to see Monuments yesterday at Shepherds Bush Empire having never heard any of Leprous' music. The band absolutely blew me away but this song? Holy. The outro is my favourite endings to a song of all time. What an amazing track all around!
That outro is the heaviest thing ever created
Just when you thought Pitfalls was over this track brings a massive, thunderous storm and blows your mind. EPIC!!!!!
Seeing this song live in Bucharest in February was the best moment I've had in 2020 so far. Thank you! If you're reading this and didn't see them live, then make this a goal in your life.
@@alex-ie8tp Cred ca mi-au lipsit mai ales the valley si at the bottom, dar n-ai ce reprosa cand tot ce au cantat a fost fantastic live. Acum am dat de raspunsul tau.
so unbelievably powerful. i cried at the sky is red but as soon as i heard einar scream “red” in the live version i just exploded in tears and even now i cant listen to it without tearing up. its the same song, but the difference is just night and day
Ok....
Please please please please
Give us a live DVD for that concert. I'd pay so much for this. Also I need " at the bottom" live in good quality.!!!!
At the bottom.. such a great song
This guys played this at the end of their set for Mexico Metal Fest. I've heard plenty of Leprous songs, but not this one. This song is now imbued into my eardrums and their performance into my retina. It was around 2pm, grey skies with constant raining and then this outro starts to kick in. For me one of the most powerful musical and sensory experiences I've had
I was just watching this video again for I don't know which time. I've lost count. Mad, mad props to the lighting engineer for bringing an absolute masterpiece of a song and an impeccable performance come to life like this.
If I were watching this live from the audience, I'd have been terrified and in awe at the same time.
Maybe the ULTIMATE closer. Ended the Seattle show last night and it blew the doors off. Incredible.
Still can't believe I was there to witness this live. Thank you so much for this. This song is insanely perfect
When you stop to consider there are people in the crowd experiencing this song and even band for the first time LIVE makes me envious.
Jesus … most technical drummer I’ve ever heard … the tempos and ghost notes are just insane … creativity at it’s best!!!!
duuude einar sounds even more powerful on this live... all of them actually
Hands down this is the most beautiful and stunning music i’ve heard in a very long time.
Saw them at an old church turned into a venue a few years ago on good Friday. It was the close to God I have ever been. The Dear Hunter opened and BTBAM closed and Jesus arose 3 days later
Ughhh :'( This song, everything about it - it touches something in my heart. Almost like it's the soundtrack to my most painful thoughts, only, I haven't thought them yet. Absolutely incredible what Leprous manages to accomplish.
Harmonically, rhythmically, visually, performance - bloody incredible.
Same here.
The Flood from The Congregation gets me like that too.
Wow, that's the perfect way of putting it. I felt like I was about to break down crying when I heard that last part, as if it reminds me of a really painful memory. The thing is I've never experienced anything that justify that level of pain.
Seeing this live was eye opening
The end build up sends palpitations through you
11:04 This person gets my full respects
Wow. I am completely unsurprised by how good this is, but wow. Despite expecting it, I'm floored. Epic.
this song was way better without forced ads in the middle of it
I wish I could’ve been in that stage during the outro....it’s breathtaking
Everyone in the band head banging all at different time? Must be a Leprous concert.
Just here for the drummer. Let’s give this guy some credit, he phenomenal.
When i think about end of the universe, this outro comes to mind.
I've listened to this album so many times. But I had to go listen to the end of the studio track again to verify that they indeed do that breakdown at the end. It's so much heavier live that I forgot about it.
Everything is so impeccable that I'm finding it really hard to believe this is live!
bloody hell, this is even better then the album version!
That outro reminds me so much of Swans. Leprous is just on another level when it comes to life performances, absolute masterpiece.
This is the track that has finally sold me on Leprous (though I'd only heard a couple of songs prior.) Listened to it about 10 times in the past 48 hours and it just keeps blowing my mind.
I just listened to this live and I'm walking out of the venue. Trust me, it's MASSIVE. Go see these guys as soon as you can! 🤯
It sucks that I just found these guys during the covid19 pandemic because now I really want to see them live..
That ending is to die for. Literally. I would die to this song in the pit. After the show just toss me in the dumpster. \m/
Haha but, No...for then, you would never hear it again..🙀
LIVE @ LISBOA, PORTUGAL, and i was right at the back in absolute ecstasy!! THIS WAS THE SONG I WAS WAITING ALL ALONG. MASTERPIECE!
Igualmente maravilhoso em 2023, também no LAV.
Hearing this song on the album was amazing to begin with, but seeing it live was absolutely mind-boggling. I love the aggression in Einar's voice and the way he seems to want to outrun the instruments. I remember, after the outro finished and all that was left was the cello and the choir, I felt like I was suspended in mid-air, floating, wondering whether this has truly just happened. Never experienced something like this on any other concert I've been to.
Totally agree! That outro combined with that lighting... it took my breath away.
The light show is incredible, what an experience! They made such a great choice going with Adam Noble to mix Pitfalls. What he did on the album version of this was so unique and so different to how most of the metal scene would have mixed it, and it's clearly translating to how they approach their live sound too with the distorted ringy snare in the outro etc mixed with their choice of cleaner guitar tones in moments where others would go straight for high gain. A truly progressive band doing something original
This is more than a song - it’s a life experience. (And then YT throws an ad right into the middle of it and completely blows the vibe!)
Terrific performance. Also whoever did sound... :chefs kiss:
I miss seeing these guys live :( they never ever disappoint
They managed to make the outro even more epic holy shit! Now I wished the studio version was so heavy too
D A T S N A R E
I love this band so much!
Leprous, Agent Fresco and Port Noir are absolutely perfection! \m/
Without Port Noir really
okay Baard Kolstad is one of the greatest drummers of all time
The Pitfalls tour show was one of the best shows I have ever witnessed.
Same here! If not THE best
Todo, la composición, interpretación, ejecución, la parte técnica de luces, de audio pff... el vídeo, el público tan respetuoso y que se controla para no gritar de emoción durante toda esa explosión de sonido... los he de ver en vivo
This song live blew me away last year. The last part...so intense, so heavy. Absolutely incredible, I'm getting goosebumbs all over...again!
Saw them tonight. The last section of the song is NUTS
Can we also mention the lights department? What an amazing job!
Finally a good quality live version! I didn't get this song at first having heard only studio version. Solid song, but I didn't understand this a bit too long ending that felt like it was part of something else. But after experiencing (key word since you cannot see it, hear it of feel it but one must experience it) this performed live I totally get it. Usually after any good gig you think they could play this or that song but you just go on with your life. But when they were closing gig in Krakow with this gem, loosing their sh*t with choreographed-like headbanging I remember wishing they will continue for at least half an... forever
I think exactly the same. I found the end dragging, and the vocal line too monotonous. Then I experienced it live and it clicked. The song builds and builds tension, safe for a momentary release with the guitar solo, and the ending hits you like an earthquake. It's like watching a massive red giant explode in slow motion, magnificent, powerful, inesorable.
One of the best progressive tunes ever written. Love you boys
That ending is like an engine from some other universe. Even too weird for Meshugah!
@JM Coulon Yes, Meshugah is one of my favorite bands.
Messugah toma la leche escuchando este tema
I regret buying an air conditioner recently. Watching this gives me the required chills.
Absolutely worth it bumpig my head on one of those videographers!
This sounds even better thsn the studio version...which is already an insane piece of music. Can't wait to see the live in London on Dec the 4th
Damn, I seriously need a live album.
Live at the Rockefeller Hall!
@@daniolus there's sadly no songs from Malina and Pitfalls, released later... NEED A SECOND LIVE ALBUM
Yes that would be awesome!!! I hope they at least release the audio of their livestream on bandcamp at some point.
Mr Joao Filipe you have done an incredible job matching the musical drama of that second passage with your visuals !! well done sir!!
Mr John Clarke , thank you! You have an eye :)
Finally good quality LIVE video of this song! Thank YOU!
Gotta see them live
I'm only a quarter way through the song right now but I'm looking forward to 'THE OUTRO'
Well i don't know what I was expecting but that wasn't it. Glad I discovered this band
I LOVE the solo. Sounds better even than the album version
These guys are incredibly live!!!!
amazing, and that drummer is outstanding!
How does his voice sound even better live than on a mixed and mastered studio recording? This band isn't next level, this band is 4 levels passed that. Unreal musicianship.
5:25 Unbelieveable how much juice Baard brings to that part with that crazy fill and that flying ride pattern after - I always want to rush up the next highest mountain when I listen to it ;)
This is not a song, this is a journey
This is the anthem for 2020.
This song is nutritionally complete
Good freakin Lord. What a voice!
holy .... i didn't knew they are so good live
Look up the live video for The Flood if you haven't already. The vocal harmonies are something else
When the live version sounds better than the recording you know the band is good.
Mario Duplantier says he agrees with your comment.
