I worked construction with Aaron Rieseberg’s dad in Salem Oregon and as much of a metalhead as I am, I had vaguely heard of this band until a conversation sparked up one day at work about how much I love the band Tool....His dad said “my son is in a band that opened for Tool a few times”, I almost didn’t believe it at first but it made me look up this band and I’ve loved them ever since....good music has a way of finding you....
Funny, I found these guys when I saw them open for Tool. Don’t remember what year it was. They were the only opening band. Wife and I were pretty fucking high on mushrooms and I remember telling her that I need to find out who they are. Been in my top 5 fav bands ever since.
@@trevordotto3729 you have good taste in music sir
As do you. And you are right, great music always has a way of finding you.
Finding out about Yob when you’re on the tools putting in work…. Wholesome as fuck. Love that shit brother….
YOB>Tool Tool just tends to remake the same song over and over. They are actually quite boring...especially live. Saw them in Portland years ago when my Gf bought tickets as a surprise BD gift. Tool fans had no clue what Fantomas were, who opened, and that in itself shows the level of "toolshed" they can become...anyone that can claim to love music, metal in this case, and boo King Buzzo and Dave Lombardo off the stage are a feckless bunch. We left 5 songs in. They all blurred together. As any quasi-pretentious Tool fans biggest go to goes: "you just don't understand" They were/are right...I don't understand the adoration or the worship, because I fully grasp music of all kinds. Sure, Danny can mash...but its wasted talent in probably the most overated act in existence and their best material was their very first EP. The rest is pretension defined because they clicked with a bunch of lazy kids who were moved by their first exposure to progressive chords, and went WHOA...when progressive bands have been around since music was being made.
How many times have you been here? - Yes.
Yes indeed my friend.
@@Flimpofloempieflomp many thx YOB
The girl to the side of the stage is high as balls while listening to this and i envy her for that
Same
I love how Sir Davos is working the pit.
Exactly what I thought!
10:56 tryin at least
"Ser" actually
LMAO
Ser Friendzone
It is two days from 2024 and i just discovered Yob. Holy fractal fuck!
Ads in the middle of a song are friggin' evil.
Not using adblocker in the present day.
I'm on my phone, so no ad blocker. Stopped watching the moment the ad started; I'm not putting up with this nonsense.
@@eternalvoid2678 use youtube vanced if you have an android device
you probably also think the bands shouldnt get paid for what they do
@@xisotopex How do you get that from my comment? Ads at the start or end are reasonable and normal. An add in the middle of the song that stops the song I'm enjoying to sell me something makes the experience less enjoyable. I don't think that's an unreasonable stance.
This performance is a classic. The song,the venue and the atmosphere. It should be up there with stuff like Hendrix at Woodstock.
It's called church. No one goes home empty. These three men are healers.
HAIL!!
T H A N K Y O U T H A N K Y O U T H A N K Y O U

I agree, this is amazing stuff, should totally be up there with the best
This is probably the best Yob live vid I've ever seen. Fantastic tune, performance, setting, and capture -- even with the bass cutting around 10:45; but then they're all smiles. Totally flowed with it. All 3 of them were in perfect harmony here. So crushed that Travis isn't with them anymore.
It’s a huge bummer Travis isn’t with them anymore.
@@rainydayz6429 what did Travis say about leaving Yob?
@@ericp4169he was heavily anti vax when Covid came out and I think the band wanted everyone to be vaxxed during that time or something and he refused to get the vaccine.. that is the main reason he parted ways with them. very sad but I can get it on a certain level.
@@ericp4169It’s because he was anti vax when Covid came out. As far as I heard, the band wanted everybody to be vaccinated so they could tour and record some of their songs and Travis didn’t want to get it so it eventually led to them parting ways. I can respect his decision though, he’s doing pretty good for himself as of the last time I saw him.
Dude the lighting, the mood, the atmosphere! THIS IS MAGICAL AS FUCK.
Truer words have never been spoken.
The woods stage at Pickathon : MAGICAL AS FUCK, for sure.
@@pickathon I need to go there some time.
I think the 20 people who downvoted were just sad that they couldn't be there.
This song is pretty much the pinnacle of what heavy metal can accomplish.
Not even close but is a great song
@@Hoochypoo I disagree but I respect your opinion.
@@Hoochypoo You only listen to real metal like Metallica, Sabbath and Dream Theater, do you?
Nah
YOB is incredible metal ART. Too bad some of you can’t feel that. It’s a fucking amazing feeling by the way. #YOBISLOVE 🤘🔥💚
11:08 when you are so proud of the awesome riff you wrote that it genuinely makes you happy playing it
That's why bands should write massive and interesting riffs! I always strive to, just because I wanna hear them a bunch of times. Yob are an 'all killer no filler' kinda band, every riff counts, and, wow, his response that you pointed out, that is the true magic of awesome riffs! It made me smile just seeing it! 😀
There is no way he wasn't in another place during that performance. No way. This is divine, universal, magical. I've cried and shivered so many times listening to this. It's like the universe is speaking to me.
The story of how these songs came about explains a lot. Look up rolling stone interview with Mike. Crazy! www.rollingstone.com/music/music-features/harrowing-illness-almost-killed-doom-metal-titans-yob-but-gave-their-work-new-life-629498/
YOB is love!
Devoted to my father, RIP
I must have watched this over a 100 times I never go tired of it. Brilliant.
Totally kick ass
It's the best.
That is a fucking tsunami of sound for a 3 piece !!!!!!!
Can't believe they're only a three piece. They sound massive
I think three piece band is energetic and more powerful than any!
13 Mins and not a secong boring. This is how you do it.
Yob are shamans, healers. Amazing vibe!
This makes me want to cry its so awesome its like a ceremony
lol me too I was what the hells wrong with me. Its transcendent
It is a ceremony technically
Ok good so I’m not the only one
@@ih4269 nothing wrong with you, it touches the soul, you could call it healing music. Yob is love! 🙌🏾❤
me too!_)especially in the last part of the song/
Holy 💩 I don't know how I got here, but I'm never leaving.
And this was my first time hearing Yob. Blown away. Some old school Cathedral vibes in there. What brutally beautiful art Yob creates.
Mike Scheidt (the Vocalist) is a Big Cathedral Fan :)
@@bernardocatrilef2846 Yes I heard him mention it in an interview. I remember when Forest Equilibrium came out. Game changer!
Do not feel lonely. The entire universe is inside you.
Not only does this kick all sorts of ass but Mike even takes a big swig out of a pitcher at 9:34, in the middle of the song... that is beyond god tier
I'd wager that is tea.
all the right kinds of ass that needed kicking are kicked over the course of this song
When YOB is the only thing in the world that makes sense anymore
Easily one of the best live performances ever!!
Absolutely beautiful. Yob is love
Yob is love
Baby don't hurt me...
4:00 The Onion Knight has really put on some weight. Glad he's doing well for himself now.
Finally saw Yob live last weekend here in ATL and it was magical. I understand why people say seeing Yob live leaves you feeling healed. I had a genuine religious/mystical experience during their set when they played this song. They're the real deal. I thought I'd be in a moshpit at some point during their set. Instead I was enraptured in a transcendent moment of awe.
I saw them in San Diego two weeks ago as well, and man I still feel it, it left me with a need to hear this live again and again, next time they are on tour I think Im going to follow them for three shows at least lol
@@th-3dstudioth-3dstudio16 Bro I was stoned out of my mind during their set and I decided right then and there that I'm taking an indefinite break from cannabis and going to take up meditating. I know what you mean about still feeling it.
9:34 now thats what i call "a beer" :D
I have been obsessed with everything happening after 10:33 for 2 weeks straight now.
you're not alone. a couple years for me though
Update: It's 5 months now.
After Aaron's bass drops?
Cameramen, Editing, Music....PERFECT
- Goosebumps cannot last for more than 13 minutes ! - Hold by beer...
Zeppelin was the soundtrack to my life in the late '70s early '80s. For at least the past decade YOB has been it - it goes deeper than just liking their music, Mike speaks to my heart and soul. Can't wait to see them live again.
Damn his vocals are flawless
First time I saw YOB live, they played this. The emotion, the dynamics, everything about it... brought me to tears right there in the front row. Still to this day the greatest performance I have ever seen.
Our Raw Heart closer at the Arkansas show. Go now. Tears every time.
I ain't got no house cept a tent by the waves and I only now just realized how blessed I am. Father Poseidon has my soul and I won't sell it for a thing.
These guys always somehow seem to sound better live than on their studio recordings, so insanely fuckin good...
Agree on that one!
Easily the trippiest live act I've ever seen. If you ever have the chance to see them from the comfort of a big overstuffed armchair, do it.
They came to Ottawa with Bell Witch not very long ago. Had to miss it because I had a gig myself...still bothers me now.
The compassion ... if you give your heart to something you truly believe is incredible by itself this is a prime example and by far is one of the best only a few bands will ever do this!! I'm completely engulfed in the music when I listen...it's on point
It's true. I liked Yob. Then I saw them. Then I LOVED Yob. They outperformed Neurosis both times I've seen them.
This is the meaning of life.
At 10:45 when the bass drops out…I’ve seen people here lamenting that, but I actually think it makes the next eight bars much more profound when it does kick back in.
YES! My thoughts exactly. I prefer this version.
I was there, one of the best performances I’ve seen from the band. ✌️
Lucky. I've just discovered this band. Can't wait to see them. Hopefully soon
where was this ?
Pickathon Music Festival at the Wood Stage!
Super jealous, seen them many times, but this one is magical.
It should be a crime to put ads in the middle of this
The boys have anchored this song deep in my heart! 🙏
Yob is Love 🙏 this band saves me every time I hear them, live performances are like going to church, they nourish my very soul and have been with me through the very worst and the very best moments of my life. I stargazed to Beauty In Falling Leaves with one of my very best friends on a Thai island after I hadn’t seen him for years and I will never forget it as long as I live. I adore Yob 🙏 x
This band is straight up special. Magic doesn’t come around like this often. But they’ve also worked extremely hard. They’ve always been good, but they are as solid as it comes now...absolutely awesome.
Few things give me goosebumps these days,this does, oh yes!!! Lifts and destroys my soul at the same time.
Who's had take brutal mush trip with this song? I saw the colors of the music, and colored lines, geometric forms, spirals and every sort of things....
I don't think I've ever heard vocals as good as this
We want this entire set pressed into a vinyl please! When Pickathon allowed the entire set to be shown it was utter magic! YOB is love!
Aragorn doing a solid performance on bass
A beauty in a storm. YOB is LOVE
What a performance this is. Holy shit. And the venue is absolutely perfect. I’ve watched this like 10 times today.
Sir Davos the Onion Knight doing a great job as security 🤘
Hahah yeah I’m watching this guy is kinda familiar hahah
I'm an old-school Stoner metal dude like Saint Vitus and stuff like that. The last thing that really kick me in the ass like this was Kyuss,Sleep in the 90's.I personally think these guys are better than "The Sword's" first album
What are your favourite Kyuss style stoner rock bands?? Huge fan myself and always looking for similar stuff
Never heard of this band before, they remind me abit of tool and late 90s metal I dg it.
The girl smiling at 6:10 is magic!
3:59 Life has been hard for everyone Hold on tight sir Davos, everything will be alright.
It's a rare PRIVELLIGE to have such a perfect performance captured so beautifully for us to watch over and over again. Energetic, transcendental and brutal. Elevated.
12:44 the patented YOB palm mute “chunk” is life changing
This is a music enjoyer's dream.
I remember hearing this opening for my first Tool concert in Portland 2014
I was there too!!!
@@robwilliams82xx hell yeah dude, that was when I first saw Tool (and YOB) live for the first time
Talk about atmosphere...
This is so incredible. Their riffs are straight up dark sorcery.
I saw them a few years back with Bell Witch.. A transcendent live show to attend, for sure. Mike is such an admirable and nice dude.
Yob is love, Yob is life!
Ten times in a row, can't stop playing this. That's the whole afternoon gone! So, so good.
YOB is such a treasure, their music is a spiritual experience. This song is a masterpiece and I can't wait to see them.
That girl standing against the tree is my spirit animal, she's vibin hard!
What a beautiful massive sound!!! YOB is love
Yob is like a finger, pointing away to the moon… Don’t concentrate on the finger or you’ll miss all the Yobbenly glory.
Unsure if this is the proper zen koan for yob. But there is a zen koan in this somewhere!
Can't sit down when this song kicks in. Have to pace
Otherworldly. Yob just get better and better.
Every time I listen to this song it feels like I'm coming home. Thank you!
Infinite band...
Yob gives me chills every time I hear them, it's so fuxking good
Out of this world
Simply magnificent, 13 minutes in another dimension, Hail YOB
Bassist rockin a Formulas Fatal to the Flesh shirt. Soon as i noticed that i knew these boys were legit. Feeling foolish i havent listened first. Performance blew me away. Deep dive on the discography begins now, hope they have vinyl i can buy.
unreal. mike is a shaman!
Mike is the coolest dude on the planet
Goosebumps every time i watch this.
Who in the hells puts a damn add 1min in a tremendous song like this??
Perfect, I love them!
YOB IS LOVE
What a masterclass.
Wish I was there!!
I wish that vocal where Mike shoots the power of the universe out of his mouth at 10:27 was in the album version. Also, props to the rhythm section on this. They make this sound huge! And I love that end section where everyone is smiling with Mike.
It looks so cool when they go in slow motion at the end.
Mike and Yob are ICONS!!!!!
FAB BAND 👌 LOVE THAT GUYS GUITAR 🎸
Metal ecstasy!!! An amazing band live. Don't miss out if you ever can!
Just a stunning performance. Mike's excitement after nailing that riff and that MONSTROUS bellow. Fucking legendary. I can't wait to see these guys live
saw them several times in few different countries since 2016. so, so heavy... just the absolute live band out there
Come here whenever I feel sad, 11:19 always cheers me up. Yob is Love 🤘🏻🖤
We have to listen the most we can to artists like this, in order to save the metal and the music! \m/
saw this in San Diego last week, it was one of the most beautiful wall of loud music that has ever hit my body
I love it so much when the big wave hits
I have seen alot of bands, but when YOB performed it was a special moment in time for me mentally and spiritually
I cannot believe how good this song is
beautiful!
