01.22.15 | Mars Volta suck, agreed. |
deathschool
01.22.15 | I'm suing |
deathschool
01.22.15 | If the experience was enjoyable, that's all that matters though. |
ArsMoriendi
01.22.15 | "they opened for soundgarden, but fuck soundgarden i went there for volta"
No wonder you had a terrible time. Soundgarden are great live. |
BAT
01.22.15 | soundgarden was on point, but i have to admit that after an hour their songs start to sound the same,
than they played for another hour and a half. far from making this list however. |
NakedSnake
01.22.15 | Cee Lo Green sucks live. |
Snake.
01.22.15 | blink-182 and alkaline trio |
scottpilgrim10
01.22.15 | Sun Kil Moon were awful when I saw them, and Saves the Day were pretty disappointing. |
Pajolero
01.22.15 | I heard Jerome's Dream were horifically bad. |
pedro70512
01.22.15 | Worst concert I ever went to was (wait for it) Trans-Siberian Orchestra. Saw them at Foxwoods from the nosebleed seats and it was almost unbearable. The interludes were long, boring, and melodramatic, and it was all based around a story that made no sense whatsoever. The violin looked for all the world like it was mimed to a backing track and whenever a musician played a solo, it looked like a desperate attempt to make sure someone noticed him for a change over all the smoke and lasers. After the first hour and a half, they announced "and for the second half of our show...!" and most of the audience headed for the exits. It had to have been embarrassing for them. |

01.22.15 | I heard Jerome's Dream were horifically bad
wtf who said that |
Supercoolguy64
01.22.15 | i wish i could have seen pg. 99 live
you and me both |
Supercoolguy64
01.22.15 | would of been intense as shit
i wonder how their live shows were like during the presents era |

Best live recovery in the history of ever. |
dixoncocks
01.22.15 | Saw 1 & 2 at Infest in 2008 and thought they ruled. I must say that All Shall Perish put them all to shame though. |
BAT
01.22.15 | 1&2 were at the same concert, summer slaughter 09 i think at sonar, as i recall it was the first day
of the tour so they probably weren't in their a-game. but than i kept seeing faceless on bills and
same problems different lineups. |
Muisc4Life26
01.22.15 | fuck soundgarden
LOL troll |
dixoncocks
01.22.15 | I bet After The Burial and Beneath The Massacre were sick though. Yea it's nice seeing a tour like a quarter of the way through, after the bands get into their groove. The first day can be pretty shitty. |
BAT
01.22.15 | i grew up with soundgarden, superunknown was one of my first cds. but as far as which band i wanted to see, volta was higher priority because i had missed them 3 times already. |
BAT
01.22.15 | after the burial was sick and beneath killed it. i did bust my ass in the beneath pit tho. origin was
honestly the best performance of the night. |
dixoncocks
01.22.15 | Never listened to them, I'll have to check em out.
|
R6Rider
01.22.15 | Chelsea Grin. Didn't wanna see them, but I did. Twice. |
BAT
01.22.15 | i saw a live chelsea grin video once and the vocalist sounded like marge simpson |
demon of surveillance
01.22.15 | this band Retox opened for Dillinger (between Norwegian Shining and Trash Talk) and it was so awful
at one point the vocalist was just walking around in the crowd hoping someone would give him attention |
R6Rider
01.22.15 | Yeah he's terrible. Tries to sing but can't.
Can't even make out any of the "riffs". |
DoctorDoom
01.22.15 | Agree with one but I think they just suck in general and three was disappointingly bad live. |
sapient
01.22.15 | Cage the Elephant comes to mind when I think about bad live shows. They opened for Stone Temple Pilots and their singer could barely sing |
deathschool
01.22.15 | Really? I'm not even a big fan of Cage the Elephant, but I thought they were pretty solid when I saw them live |
InFiction
01.22.15 | I've seen Born Of Osiris live and can agree, they suck really bad. |
Scoot
01.22.15 | senses fail |
Scoot
01.22.15 | and wu-tang sucked dick when they came here but that's probably cause they were all too fucked up |
thunder15
01.22.15 | idk Fourth, I saw deathgrips after the exmilitary tape came out and they killed it, all 3 of them were fantastic but zach hill was fucking unhuman.
angels and airwaves were one of the worst bands I've seen live, but that was mostly (maybe entirely) because of tom trying to invent new melodies when he can't even sing the simple ones on the album |
DrGonzo1937
01.22.15 | You should have seen Volta in their prime. Unreal. |
BAT
01.22.15 | whats funny is that even though i was extremely disappointed at the time, the songs they played were
actually better than what ended up on the album which came out over a year later
(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ob1xJ-ccPzU). still a fan but haven't given bosnian rainbows or
antemasque a listen. |
DrGonzo1937
01.22.15 | Wouldn't bother listening to either band, they both suck. |
MeatSalad
01.22.15 | Mastodon |
thumbcrusher
01.22.15 | Mastodon were awesome when I saw them in November |
Torontonian
01.22.15 | avenged sevenfold, u2, alice in chains would be on mine. |
protonjon
01.22.15 | Circa Survive and the Red Hot Chilli Peppers for me. |
protonjon
01.22.15 | Plus Soundgarden ∞> Mars Volta. |
BigPleb
01.22.15 | That VR video is horrible haha. |
LunaticSoul
01.22.15 | Born of Osiris are CRAP live. They're so overrated anyway
Mastodon are a boring band and people here paid like 45 quid to see them (I won a ticket) and 60% of the crowd was so not into it and woke up only on Blood and Thunder. |
Funeralopolis
01.22.15 | We Came As Romans was the worst live act I've ever seen them and some random hardcore band I can't remember the name of. |
thacoconut94
01.22.15 | Despite being one of my favourite artists ever, marilyn manson can be very hit or miss. Absolute hit when I saw them though. |
WhiteNoise
01.22.15 | Soundgarden were boring as fuck when I saw them. So were alice in chains |
Dryden
01.22.15 | mars volta was opening up for another band and the headlining band was late so mars volta had an extra 2
hours and they used it well by using nothing but feedback and the singer crawling on the floor crying and
whining |
oisincoleman64
01.22.15 | Blink-182 are shit musically but their fun and entertaining as hell |
DrGonzo1937
01.22.15 | 'I saw TMV in 2005 and in 2010, it was very good. But I see the point of bat, I Heard that the goliath tour was a disaster in lots of countries'
I went to a Goliath gig and it was fucking amazing. |
pedro70512
01.22.15 | Mastodon have gotten a lot better and I had no complaints about their last show. But there was that sketchy stretch from like 2007-2012 where they were starting to incorporate clean vocals and really butchered them live. |
betray
01.22.15 | i saw born of osiris live in like 2007 or 8 and they fucking slayed. |
JokineAugustus
01.22.15 | The Faceless was pretty good live. Not a big fan of their albums though. |
feargm
01.22.15 | System of a Down nowadays is doing poorly live, mostly due to Serj's vocals. |
beefshoes
01.22.15 | I saw #2 a couple of years ago, and they sounded great.
Best bass sounds at a live show that I've ever heard.
(EDIT: I lmao'd hard at the VR vid. Bic pen bass drums to the extreme.) |
sonictheplumber
01.22.15 | 4 sucked? i doubt it |
EnyaFangirl
01.22.15 | black moth super rainbow was definitely most disappointing live band for me, sounded soooooo off. |
Trebor.
01.22.15 | *bands that suck in general, besides Exhorder |
BAT
01.22.15 | they played at like four pm on a sidestage. as far as placement on the list goes, exhorder is probably the least deserving, it was a tossup between them and fleshgod apocalypse. however; they played at a slower tempo and everyone aside from the frontman looked bored. they were also followed by voivod. |
Spec
01.22.15 | Bring Me The Horizon was fucking terrible. |
Ryus
01.22.15 | *bands that suck in general, besides Exhorder [2] |
beefshoes
01.23.15 | beefshoes sucked? i doubt it. |
Spec
01.23.15 | Also every local hardcore act I've ever seen. |
SharkTooth
01.23.15 | There is no live gig that could possibly be worse than Tran Siberian Orchestra |
EnyaFangirl
01.23.15 | ^this is the correct answer |
17WordHaiku
01.23.15 | mastodon was horrific live. thankfully ghost and opeth saved the day. |
TheSonomaDude
01.23.15 | Dragonforce should be one here. |
deathschool
01.23.15 | "Also every local hardcore act I've ever seen."
You from Alabama, Spec?
|
WellFedWhiteMale
01.23.15 | Iceage was pretty terrible live. |
jsaf7
01.26.15 | I thought Soundgarden was totally boring when i saw them live, they weren't terrible by any means, but when Nine Inch Nails came and played after them there was no comparison quality wise. |
Spec
01.26.15 | Not Alabama no. The Calgary hardcore scene is pretty awful.
Also hands down the worst is probably The Color Morale. |
