Chino solo performance in Iceland in a VOLCANO?

[illthrowROCKS@U]

He's always been pretty lackluster live, but holy shit this is embarrassing. At least in a normal show people are drunk, wild, and there's heavy distortion-laden downtuned guitars to cover up his shoddy vocals.

This is just bad. Cool concept, bad execution.

Nah it sounds like he just didn't do his research about how playing in that environment changes the sound http://www.bbc.co.uk/newsbeat/article/36539068/deftones-singer-chino-moreno-plays-a-gig-in-a-volcano-in-iceland?ns_mchannel=social&ns_campaign=bbc_radio_1&ns_source=twitter&ns_linkname=radio_and_music

So then... bad execution?

I'd written that before you posted, it wasn't a response to you.

Yeah, Chino post white pony hasn't really stood up much live. Even before then he was pushing way too hard which might explain why he has so little to work with these days.

[LG95]

Fuck me, you realise you're all making these sweeping comments at the end of a tour where his vocals have been pretty impeccable?

He's sounded great on Deftones shows, but cmon, this sounds really bad.

Interested to hear what the Morrissey and Bowie covers were like... think chino should do acoustic stuff outwith volcanoes. I enjoyed the Deftones acoustic versions and Music in High Places was incredible.

I didn't say it didn't (although it's more strained than out and out bad). It's just the bullshit "look how shit he is live", "he's got no voice anymore" nonsense that I was responding to.

[sooniletugo]

Yeah true. It's just not a good performance from that clip. Recently he's sounded really good live, I saw them last weekend and he sounded fantastic. And he showed on the Team Sleep live album how good he can still sound.

Chino isn't an acoustic performer for a reason. More than anything, I think he needs a mic. Nevertheless, it's still cool that he did this.

Check out the echo!

Dial a Cliche by Morrissey.

And there was no echo in the original video of this.
Definitely added.

And, it sounds pretty damn cool.

[sooniletugo]

That sounded amazing. The echo also helped him sound even more like Morrissey.

[ANattyRat]

Sounds cool. I like how everyone is wearing a helmet except for him, haha, nice.

There is no way his voice isn't doctored on that album.

Someone uploaded the entire Bowie cover with 360 degree cam.
