Hmm, you think? I think he over did it. The noise was all wrong too. Fucking FX was overriding it all. Also Dan looked like a spare part with those 2 going for goth and him not.
Its his voice, he was vocally fucked for atleast an album or two, by the time crimson rolled around he was better, but i think his voice wasnt 100% but he couldnt not perform either
normally instruments sound awful on talk shows/television, but I think Matt's guitar sounds perfect here. Really crunchy and raw, although it's probably just the result of a shitty sound guy.
i'm just guessing, but i think they went back to their producer and asked how to make the song sound more consistent with the gothic-ey sound of crimson.
There's a lightning storm each and every night Crashing inside you like motorbikes We toss and turn, sleep so loud Grind the teeth in our empty mouths Our empty There's a forest fire burning bright Spreading quickly towards our last rights Nowhere to run, pointless to hide Just lay there and scream, pretending to try Pretending Intending to burn, pretending to fight it Everyone learns faster on fire Things took a turn, lost all desire You live and you burn You live and you burn This impending doom is left deep inside And it's haunting you each and every night Like starving wolves, counting sheep We close our eyes, pretending to sleep Descending Intending to burn, pretending to fight it Everyone learns faster on fire Things took a turn, lost all desire You live and you burn You live and... Like hell, we are anxiously waiting Like hell burning silently strong Somehow we fell down by the wayside And somehow this hell is home As we burn, pretending to fight it Everyone learns faster on fire Things took a turn, lost all desire You live and you burn You live and Like hell, we are anxiously waiting Like hell burning silently strong Somehow we fell down by the wayside And somehow this hell is home Right now, this hell is my home
If you look at 1:53, Derek is fixing his mic and never hits his snare, but where does that snare hit come from? Just thought that was an interesting mistake.
@Brianmelso While Matt is pretty badass, one of the strengths he has in Rancid is that they're your original punk band. fast and rough. That's where Matt Freeman's skills seem to come on hand, he can play really fast and pretty damn well, but that doesn't make him the greatest punk or rock or just pure bass players. Dan is a great bassist, guitarist, lyricist, vocalist and all round musician. Based on that, Dan wins. But the best bass player ever has to go to Les Claypool. that man's a beast.
yeah i hear you. They def wear make up on tv... but not powerderd faces and black eye liner haha. im not complaining though... i like it on skiba, makes it more goth-esque. Suits the music.
@Coltronamore He's just that fast with his sticks you didn't see it. But seriously, nice pick up. Maybe they used a backing track. It happens. I still love em.
I hate to be the one that points this out, because I think this was a marvelous performance, but at 1:51 Derek scratches his nose with his left hand and is only hitting the hi hats with his right, yet the snare sound happening. Did he pantomime to the recording?
I'll admit it, i didnt see it, but he's got a good eye. Do you not see it? you can clearly see that he doesn't hit the snare and yet you hear the snare. wait for a few seconds after 1:51, you can clearly see him scratching his nose and only hitting the hi hats and the snare sound still comes out somehow...
Matt Kim one comment said it’s a kick. It’s possible, but since they’re playing along to the click (piano in the bridge confirms that) perhaps there was a light kick and snare beat in the backing track.
@guitarhero9392 yeah, his voice here is.... well, ok. he sounds either somewhat flat or sharp, not so sure. but its better than them using autotune, which they use now-a-days.
They dont really dress up like this. Well at least not the show i have seen and not on any "real shows and not this TV CRAP!!!! i mean that in a good way. not the tv part though.
Now I quite like alkaline trio, and i love this song, but my god his singing here is AWFUL!! I actually couldnt watch past the bridge part cause I was cringing too much :(
Lewis Watt Matt Skiba is trying his hardest to sing this one at the top of his lungs as is required for this song. They picked a high key here as they could have drop tuned to make it easy on the vocals. Apparently, Skiba still does not have a warm up routine in place for his vocal chords before each performance and likes to carry out live playing to match the recording. That means he has to pitch his voice kinda beyond his range for a live gig. As a result his vocals come out faulty at key sections of the song where he cannot raise his pitch any higher.
Dude what an animal of a song to pull off live, seriously. I was just thinking this has got to be hell to manage but they did great.
Daaamn. Skiba seems to have some hit or miss performances in the past, but this is just incredible.

Yeah I saw them play this song live in 2022 and he sounded awful
@@mikelopez2024I skipped them in 22, but 24 he sounded great
I love that echo effect.
This is just gold for people who know about real music
that song gets better every time i hear it i fukin love them!!!!!!
such a sick performance!
holy shit. I've always loved Craig. But I just discovered this is something unreal. ALK3
...love this band and love this song...
He has always had an absolutely amazing voice.
He has a decidedly below average voice for a global touring act lol
love alkaline trio was a fine ever since they came out i am so sad i missed them this year at the warped tour
i want that guitar effect at the beginning!
Delay pedal and a phaser pedal you’re welcome
@@analogsignalI thought it was a fuzz peddle
Always amazing!
haha theyve changed so much. And they are awsome live, iv seen them twice, both times awsome! :]
And how much they've changed in the 13 years since you wrote this comment XD
Amazing!! Love it
I love Matt’s hat he’s wearing o swear that’s the same hat he wears in the video for burn great performance too
I saw these guys on Wednesday. Matt wore eyeliner.
Fucking amazing, I hope they perform this at Monday nights show!
this.. is.. marvellous. 5 stars.
normally instruments sound awful on talk shows/television, but I think Matt's guitar sounds perfect here. Really crunchy and raw, although it's probably just the result of a shitty sound guy.
i'm just guessing, but i think they went back to their producer and asked how to make the song sound more consistent with the gothic-ey sound of crimson.
he always used to wear it during the crimson days. sometimes he wears some live nowadays too
This is a sick ass version
matts voice cracks a lot in this video good song they played a lot better before still best band ever
Is it bad I'm jealous that Matt Skiba looks better than me in black lipstick?
Awesome!
There's a lightning storm each and every night
Crashing inside you like motorbikes
We toss and turn, sleep so loud
Grind the teeth in our empty mouths
Our empty
There's a forest fire burning bright
Spreading quickly towards our last rights
Nowhere to run, pointless to hide
Just lay there and scream, pretending to try
Pretending
Intending to burn, pretending to fight it
Everyone learns faster on fire
Things took a turn, lost all desire
You live and you burn
You live and you burn
This impending doom is left deep inside
And it's haunting you each and every night
Like starving wolves, counting sheep
We close our eyes, pretending to sleep
Descending
Intending to burn, pretending to fight it
Everyone learns faster on fire
Things took a turn, lost all desire
You live and you burn
You live and...
Like hell, we are anxiously waiting
Like hell burning silently strong
Somehow we fell down by the wayside
And somehow this hell is home
As we burn, pretending to fight it
Everyone learns faster on fire
Things took a turn, lost all desire
You live and you burn
You live and
Like hell, we are anxiously waiting
Like hell burning silently strong
Somehow we fell down by the wayside
And somehow this hell is home
Right now, this hell is my home
@poisonrain87 No, he's not playing along to a recording. You can hear the absence of beats from the snare. What you're still hearing is the kick.
underrated
Badass
Lovet❤❤❤
i LOVE when skibs wears makeup
yea. i saw em back lst year, no autotune, sounded pretty good, altho a lil weak towards the end, but so am i when i sing that long a show.
the bass player with make up looks like uncle fester
RockBassTv hahaha made my day
It is uncle fester
If you look at 1:53, Derek is fixing his mic and never hits his snare, but where does that snare hit come from? Just thought that was an interesting mistake.
He has a trigger on his snare that he used throughout the crimson tour. So that'd explain that
@Coltronamore He is using a sample pad. It is to the left of the snare.
🔥🔥🔥🔥
Cool
@Coltronamore
Clearly a loop playing under the verses....just like the album version.
@Coltronamore He is using a sample pad. It's off to the side of the snare.
like cow i am anxiously wading
@zhobbit thank you very much. I didn't really believe he was, but i just wanted to see what other people thought
@poisonrain87 He's not scratching his nose, he's moving his mic closer to his mouth.
fucking awesome
He looks like a villain.
💜💜💜💜💜💜🤘💯
@thebrianwilson ha that makes sense. thanks :)

Matt Kim I totally hear what I believe is a snare too lol. He was moving the mic closer to do his verse backing vocals though.
i think hes using a trigger pad for the verse maybe in time with the click
fuckin awesome !
That guitar sounds sick as fuck
Dan looks like the Boss character in Altered Beast. (If you're familiar with that game)
is the backing track for the drums playing in the back ground?
@funkyfleabass Matt Freeman from Rancid is one of the most talented punk rock bassists
Search Maxwell Murder - Rancid 1 minute into the song
@zhobbit Sure sounds like a snare to me.
@guitarhero9392 yeah, his voice here is.... well, ok. he sounds either somewhat flat or sharp, not so sure. but its better than them using autotune, which they use now-a-days.
omg i hate anyone who was there bc they probably ddnt even kno who the trio were
i dont agree with you, he sounds good as ever
wtfs with the makup
he sounds like he has a cold, not the greatest performance. Love the song, but still. I think this is before they started using autotune
I've seen them live twice and both times they dressed like old men
who gives a fuck about the make up?!
its the music that matters. matt doesnt sound great, but he didnt really take care of his voice back then either.
They dont really dress up like this. Well at least not the show i have seen and not on any "real shows and not this TV CRAP!!!! i mean that in a good way. not the tv part though.
lol dan was bored
The guitar tone sounds so bad
Now I quite like alkaline trio, and i love this song, but my god his singing here is AWFUL!! I actually couldnt watch past the bridge part cause I was cringing too much :(

He’s really not THAT bad. Have you heard some of the musicians out there? Like Tom DeLonge after 2009? Now THAT is bad.
Lewis Watt you're full of shit
@tropicobear - disagree. He hits it pretty solid.
