MK333 Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 It is not 2007 had shit guitar tones, they sounded like toy guitars. EDIT: at first glance I thought this was the Newport performance. This one has too fuzzy tone in the bridge, but the Newport performance was perfect. Sorry it was Dec 2006... Anyway the guitar is sounding perfect... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2mApWA-7ghI Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LewisF Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 That might be my favourite Assassin too (in reference to the LA Mayan version). Quite like the fuzz in the GOB bridge too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway the guitar is sounding perfect... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2mApWA-7ghI That is pretty epic but the one at LA Mayan is my favourite as well. I love the massive dirty sub octaved guitar tone in the bridge section and the ending riff is paced better. I think we can all agree though that assassin is pretty much always epic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jazzthief Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 Ahem. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q0r8MURRQCY Never got the love for this. Heavily distorted camera recording makes everything better I guess? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OriAr Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 A pretty mental version, performed in a tiny room. The final chorus is practically one long held note. Also goes straight into the HCM outro.

Jobby Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 It's very good. The "I wish I could"s are the best in a while. I noticed at Download that he seemed to have stepped them up a little bit. I still think I'd prefer it if he let Chris do that part though. Doesn't come close to the '04 performances of it though imo. I don't like Matt's new tone for it, too much phaser for me as well. I hate to use the word, but the '04 performances sounded a lot more 'raw'. Matt's vocals felt more powerful and passionate as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spectrum IV Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 It's very good. The "I wish I could"s are the best in a while. They need to be screamed.

Mr.Mime Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 I agree, the 04 performances are not going to be topped but I think it's definitely the best performance of SS since then. Makes it the best performance of the last decade Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrebleRose689 Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 (edited) Love that version of SS! They were on fire that gig! In terms of fairly recent SS performances, I think ACL is one of the best too (I'd have to listen to both multiple times to figure out which is "better" though ). And the Freedom outro vocals are epic in this one too... That last scream is killer https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z9BfVN18YJg Edited July 1, 2015 by TrebleRose689 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with this but it's still one of the better ones since that time. I really doubt that Matt will produce 04 kinds of performances again. At a bare minimum they'd need to actually close with it for it to be possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At a bare minimum they'd need to actually close with it for it to be possible. it's doubtful, but it's good to see him produce aspects of it, like the ACL SS above, that final scream is classic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reapers Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 Pretty sure it was Katy Perry who ruined that word. That would be "Roar". Interesting thread. For me it would have to be almost any song from Glasto 2004. They've probably all been named numerous times already no doubt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigGeorge Posted July 3, 2015 Share Posted July 3, 2015 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ncO5O37fNqQ My personal favorite Plug in Baby. He gimps out on the final falsetto a bit but the actual performance from the band is amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aleximo Posted July 3, 2015 Share Posted July 3, 2015 I really hate that the guitar is tuned down an octave for the final riff, it empties the mids of any volume or power Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heyjackk Posted July 3, 2015 Share Posted July 3, 2015 I really hate that the guitar is tuned down an octave for the final riff, it empties the mids of any volume or power yeah it's a shame really, it sounded good when he used that effect on SMBH last tour but it just doesn't fit with assassin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
