@ Metal Militia.. Robert is a solid bass player and has been in a lot of sick bands over the years. I remember Robert most recently from ENGRAVE. A band that Emilio, who drums for POSSESSED since 2007, also played for. Check out ENGRAVE when you have some time. Very overlooked act from L.A. ~ P.S. As well there is Live footage on RUclips of ENGRAVE from Milwaukee Metal Fest '98 in support of their debut album The Rebirth.⛧🤘

@Lebo leigh Leigh Doesn't matter what you call them they're InFluenced by Evil just the Same And Are Promoters of Death And DeStrucTioN. HowEver, It Doesn't Negate How Talented They Are.
Jeff is such an awesome showman. Saw Possessed open up for Danzig like 10 years ago and it was fucking great. Honestly it’s pretty much the next best thing to ever being able to see Chuck live again for a Death Metal fan. I am so glad he is still doing it after all these years
@Lebo leigh Leighdon't get me wrong I loved the early obituary stuff, and I love the melodic style of death metal but it's like Possessed have said to themselves, what's happened to death metal since we played? What is this melodic death metal that is around nowadays, "time to reclaim the throne"
Finally a pro shot of Possessed live. And they friggin' nail it. Excellent performances all around ... especially the eye and ear popping drumming. Can't wait for the new album !
With Exodus, Sadus, Destruction, Overkill, Sodom, Death, Sepultura, Slayer, Overkill, Celtic Frost, Dark Angel, Testament, Annihilator, Nuclear Assault, Tankard, Toxic, and Flotsam and Jetsam. Call it The Evil Never Dies Tour.
Just incredible...Top shelf musicians and it's like a day didn't go by.I just love it!Kudos to Jeff for carrying on.Still got my records after all the years.
seehound619 - The way u could interpret Ras Smith's comment is that Possessed (& by extension, death metal) crushes all thrash metal in general which is true in terms of heaviness. It's not clear whether he's mislabelled them thrash but even if he has, my point is it's not the most inaccurate mistake to make considering half their material can reasonably be called thrash (like I said, their 2nd album is anything but pure death metal) Anyway lets not split hairs & agree Possessed is a crushing band - can't believe they're finally making a new album! \m/
seehound619 - For sure. I actually enjoy them playing their underappreciated post 7 Churches songs cos they sound more brutal live, the way they should've sounded.
Yes the mastermind of Possessed is Mike Torrao. Don't support this. Mike wrote almost everything even some lyrics. Larry just wrote "Tribulation" (although Brian Montana claims he did), "Phantasm", "Seance" and "Storm In My Mind" (on the EP's sleeve it says Torrao though) and some part of "Seven Churches" (song) ... everything else is Torrao's brainchild, and lyric-wise "The Exorcist", "Satan's Curse", "Twisted Minds" and part of "Swing Of The Axe". All hail to Torrao! Compare "The Seventh Sign" to "Shadow Cult" and you will hear who is the mastermind ...
@@mattersburg71true torrao was great, but they are doing great with this line up, the new record is very good! wonder if this will wake Mike back up to playing guitar again?
@@aldov316 this would be a dream come true. I see your position but I think the record is very mediocre. Newer fans are not that familiar with the songs as I am (fan since 1984). I know every song by heart that's why I hear them differently. And the lack of unexpectedness the insanity of Mike's warped riffings and composing is that I can't stand with this. It just sounds dated, forced and guitar-wise too polished. I get it that newer fans or people that just go for a name like it but if you are deep into their sound you can't appreciate that. Regards!
One of the best gigs i have seen on youtube in the last couple of years. Incredible musicians, the drummer is a machine and the bass player didn´t hit a single wrong note. All hats off!
Great video. I saw Possessed twice when they were on Barge to Hell and they were by far the best band on the boat. They were the only band where some of the crew took time off to watch.
I'm 50 in August...think was 15 or so when heard them ....this is timeless classic death metal ...what a history this band has ...cemented in metal monarchy 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
So influential back in the eighties. Great to see them back in action. Have always been the sonic staple on which classic early Morbid Angel founded their sound.
Fk yeah I hope to see you guys or to bring you here to perform someday soon. One of my favorites growing up. Man your voice is still badass! Posers better all fkn run cause Possessed is coming! #mybelief
Dude's voice has never changed since 1985! It's incredible!
That's because he is...POSSESSED!!!..... I'll show myself out.
Yeah, this is so sad.

Maybe he fucking hate them?
For real lol
wired mics just sound better. I know he used a wireless before, but ditched it i guess.
Weird mics sound GREAT
Yeah man !! I don't know fuckin why ?
They should have carried Jeff out on a demon headed throne to pay true homage to this death metal god
@Lebo leigh Leigh

Jeff you have my most respect buddy you kept this band going despite your restrictions you are number one

Agree with you.......1000%
Heavier guitar sound makes these classic songs that much more brutal. They sound great!
Incredible.
@Coy Leigh can you tell me what kind of guitar that is, not the esp*, the "bc" looking one?
@@Astral_Wave some custom "reversed Jackson RR with torn apart B.C.Rich Wrath headstock"
How the hell does this not have more views??? This is a BADASS performance!
New generations listening slipknot, that's why
@@lucian8515 Only wish they'd listen to Slipknot but they listen to some crap where the members have issues with their own gender
@@lucian8515
Slipknot is gay and african american
Man, feel like the 80's again🤘🤘
One of the most important metal bands of all time. Great show and can't wait for new album \m/ + the drummer is fucking incredible!
Totally agree with this comment! Possessed has delivered amazing live performances. One the greatest bands EVER!
the drummer is Emilio Marquez "El Sadistico" from Sadistic intent and Asesino
alfonso gadea that fucker Is a machine
100% total surprise. I can't believe this shit right now
obituary watching from backstage :)
ken andrews watched the drummer every second lmao
And then Possessed drinking beers and watching Obituary.
Diego QR Hell yeah, my buds
Taking notes
@Lebo leigh Leighdon't get me wrong I loved the early obituary stuff, and I love the melodic style of death metal but it's like Possessed have said to themselves, what's happened to death metal since we played? What is this melodic death metal that is around nowadays, "time to reclaim the throne"
31 years without new album and still sound fresh. :)
Man, it is historical to see legendary Jeff Becerra in action...
which is jeff?,,, the crippled one?
Yep !
I saw them in Long Beach, California in 1988 or 1989 along with Dark Angel. Killer Concert.
@@junioreguerra damn , masive destruction
30 something years later songs sounds so fucking fresh and brutal.
Meh. It wasnt until Death came around that metal really found its legs. Stuff like this or Obituary sound like punk with a pooping guy on vocals.
leftyguitarjoe Thats true man :P !
leftyguitarjoe , delusional comment on your part , mate 😠 ....
leftyguitarjoe , Possessed , Obituary , Sepultura , SLAYER , Kreator , Entombed , old school kicking ass in 2018 !!!!
The recording on this is better than their 2 albums. Sounds fucking awesome.
I remember being 15 and seeing Possessed for the very first at the Berkeley Square, my head exploded...
Agreed, only I saw them at Ruthie's. . .
THEERODD1,no doubt.
No doubt, these dudes are live perfectionists
skok58 - That Ruthie's gig from '84 on the Reanimation DVD is totally killer!
Revelations of Oblivion is a masterpiece! Thank U Possessed!
Well said! Revelations has my vote for Best album of 2019!⛧🤘
MINOTAUR Official agreed
Finally a pro shot of Possessed live. And they friggin' nail it. Excellent performances all around ... especially the eye and ear popping drumming. Can't wait for the new album !
chris tighe there is a pro shot of wacken 2007, you can notice how Jeff's vocal has improved since. Their new album might be really impressive.
And the album DELIVERED!
I wish Possessed and Dark Angel would tour the US together.
yes!!!.....\\m//fuck yes\\m//
They did, back in ‘87
I know, but I wanna see them in 2018.
With Exodus, Sadus, Destruction, Overkill, Sodom, Death, Sepultura, Slayer, Overkill, Celtic Frost, Dark Angel, Testament, Annihilator, Nuclear Assault, Tankard, Toxic, and Flotsam and Jetsam. Call it The Evil Never Dies Tour.
Dark Angel just disappeared, whatever happened to them???
Wheelchairs are metal.
I guess i'm going to break my back then
They fuckin are now! As soon as Jeff sat in one, every wheelchair bound person in the world gained a bit more power!!!
Amazingly played and recorded. What a masterpiece performance.
RESPECT !! I am paraplegic and I like when someone surpasses himself
Can´t fuckin wait for the New Album!
Just incredible...Top shelf musicians and it's like a day didn't go by.I just love it!Kudos to Jeff for carrying on.Still got my records after all the years.
The drums sounds brutal!
He's so fucking SOLID
@@mistercr0wbar400 yea man!
Absolutely brilliant, been waiting years to see these live and was lucky enough to be there on the day.
by far one of the best live performance I've seen in years! Cheers from Chile
I have seen this concert 100 times, one of the best of 2017🤘😈🤘
Badass performance.
Been a fan for a long time, and it's great to see they're still punishing live.
Theres something about this live that has the best tone like that bass and the riffs just hit
fantastic drummer sounds like Dave lombardo fantastic sound almost like him :) the drumm configuration is awesome....
Thank you!
This is an awesome performance! Thank you Possessed.
This crushes any live performance by any thrash band on earth. Beyond sick!!!
Jeff's like his old self. Looks like he lost a lot of weight; The axemen sound like Torrao & LaLonde, & the drummer's also tearing it up.
btw possessed is death metal!
Sam.N - Yup & he's saying it crushes any thrash band on earth.
Possessed did go far more thrashy on their 2nd album tho.

The best Death metal band of all time. Guitarists nad drummer are amazong and jeff he is so badass
I prefer cannibal corpse but I'm just now getting into these guys, they are pretty good too
Obituary is the best in my opinion. Their guitar tone is unmistakable and John Tardy has the perfect voice for Death Metal.
I bought their albums in the 80s. Good to see them still around.
One of the first metal bands to start this style of metal, period.. these dudes have been in the game for a minute now.. still killin shit!
The original line-up is the definition of legend, and they were so influential. Larry LaLonde was way ahead of his time back then.
Larry only wrote like 2 songs.
Fun fact, Larry helped found primus.
Yes the mastermind of Possessed is Mike Torrao. Don't support this. Mike wrote almost everything even some lyrics. Larry just wrote "Tribulation" (although Brian Montana claims he did), "Phantasm", "Seance" and "Storm In My Mind" (on the EP's sleeve it says Torrao though) and some part of "Seven Churches" (song) ... everything else is Torrao's brainchild, and lyric-wise "The Exorcist", "Satan's Curse", "Twisted Minds" and part of "Swing Of The Axe". All hail to Torrao! Compare "The Seventh Sign" to "Shadow Cult" and you will hear who is the mastermind ...

Rototoms is so fuckin metal
I can't wait for the next release!
Man, just listen to those piccolo toms. Jeff still sounds badass. Really happy I got to see Possessed a few years ago.
they call them roto-toms.
Incredible performance and the bass player is unreal!!
Woa.. Every one of them are amazing there especially the drummer with his crazyass energy, what a badass band.
VERY GOOD . THIS IS REAL METAL OLD SCHOOL FOR LIFE
Jeff is a god still as fresh as it was in the 80s I've been a fan since 85 and will remain a fan till I die
