Ah yes, the classic Radiohead tapping intro, one and a half minute solo and RATM-like outro with harsh distorted vocals.

 

I know right. Greenwood ripoff for certain. Also the vocal distortion discussion...its clearly obvious in the second performance, first thing I noticed when it first got posted. And I found a high quality video of it. Not sure if anyone's posted it here or not?

I don't know why Chris doesn't sing along, an octave lower, for the chorus. Seems like an easy and natural way to make it sound a million times better. I imagine though that they're trying to imitate the studio version, but it just hasn't quite found its footing live yet.

 

But that might make the lyrics more recognisable! Let us all complain about the chorus and classic rock riff before we start slamming the mention of 'super reapers' ;)

I think you'll be disappointed when you find out that Reapers is just as OTT.

 

Nope. Reapers is in the level of Stockholm Syndrome + Fury + Micro Cuts Musegasm rockness. Not even close to the ridiculous, cringe-worthy, OTT hysterics and cheesefest in Survival, USoE, KoC or TaB.

 

AC/DC. Nope. Radiohead. Nope. Madonna. Nope.

More rubbish blah blah. More circle jerks.

 

Kids, try Prince inspirations and imagine him with Bellamy's falsetto.

How is TaB cheesy...?

 

And onesies are those little one piece outfits you slap newborns into.

Except they have a buttflap and they don't have to nude up to use the bathroom.

 

sounds like something the band and crew would love to wear to bed.

 

just kidding..but honestly, we'll never know
