Who kicks most ass live?

[ChildInFlames]

It is not relevant thread to Opeth, but perhaps obly here I can get impartial assessment: Who kicks most ass live??
Please try not to be like "oh, I'm Arch Enemy fan, so I will vote for them"
I don't know, so I can't really vote, I have seen none of them live.
Please write smth

he he he - funny. I must agree in that Immortal are great. I don't know about In Flames live. THey have this live record, Tokyo, right? Not heard that either, and I guess they mixed it etc as well. I heard Satyricon are great too, but I've never seen them myself.

i've seen cob,dt, and, ae, best is arch enemy, they were really solid when playing and angela was hot

 

[7 Dying Trees]

Arch Enemy, they've become a very good live band recently, lots going on on stage and energy

COB are a bit boring to watch but still good.

In Flames are OK, but don't really do that much, still good though.

Dark Tranquility are duller than a wet blanket. Really quite uninspiring stage presence wise.

I ignore those bands and say:

THE HAAAAUUUUNTEEEEED!!!!!!

 

[DogVomit]

Of those I have only seen In Flames and Arch Enemy.

Arch Enemy wins...

 

[Satori]

King Crimson, if you have a passion for really complex prog, these guys will make you shit yourself. Rush and Yes are also really fucking cool I think.

Satori

 

[svenske kocken]

Of them: Arch Enemy.

But better live bands are: Bruce Springsteen & The E-street Band, Iron Maiden, AC/DC, Hellacopters, Entombed, Cannibal Corpse etc.

 

[ChildInFlames]

So Arch Enemy are actually better than In Flames?? I heard In Flames are like the best !

 

[OneFootBlaster]

My vote would go to Mr. Bungle. They're fucking insane. Mike Patton is quite the showman

 

[phon1c]

DEP

 

[Opethfan1980]

In Flames is by far the best band I've ever seen live. But, I haven't seen any of the other bands you listed.

 

[bang]

ive only seen in flames live, so i guess i cant say..
the in flames concert was good though, i saw them one year ago. i wish i saw them several years ago when they were still awesome.

id think dark tranquillity would be nice and cob would probably be fun. im seeing cob in about a month, looking forward to that

I have been always a big fan of King Diamond's live shows. Death was formerly a great show to go to Schuldiner shredding and keeping the between song banter a minimum was always a welcome relief to others in the genre. Missing him already.

I heard a live In Flames song off that Tokyo CD and i was fucking shocked... I couldn't believe that it was them... there were no growls, half the guitar shit came out wrong, I was like wtf?

I've never actually seen any of these bands live, mainly because I live in Australia but I have heard In Flames, Arch Enemy and CoB live tracks... I have to say that CoB totally wins... just hearing that shit brings energy into me.

 

[Ecstatic Youth]

i have only seen in flames of those bands
but In Flames have this energy o them live that I can't explain. it's incredible. just instantly when they started and throughout the whole show it was just pounding energy and movement and headbanging. i can't explain how crazy it got everyone going. wow.

Nevermore are the best live though. Warrel's stage presence is undescribable. I's so difficult not to look at him. He's funny live, he gets thr crowd going right away, he has them all in the palm of his hands the instant he walks onto the stage. amazing. the other band members are amazing too in terms of stage presence. NOT TO MENTION their musical performance. tight as hell. madness. just madness.

 

[Windom Pearl]

Dark Tranquillity were fabulous. Never seen Arch enemy though. COB are dull as hell.

The man has a very good point

Old Metallica is the best live band ever. If you never got the chance to see them in the 80's due to age or whatever then check out their live box set, some great footage there. They wrote the unofficial book on "how to get fans to die from awesomeness and pure energy" -- or something.
