Just fantastic
When you stumble on a band and just go down the rabbit hole trying to watch every live performance you can find and really dig everything you hear.
The person doing the audio mix on this video should get an award. Every instrument stands out individually and her voice rings so powerfully. Great performance.
Bbc sound engineers are incredibile. If you like David Bowie, in this Bbc show (czcams.com/video/mp2QaLXbc2M/video.html) the sound is better than the original records. I thought it was impossible!
yeah they sound great on here..audio is ace
Right on
true and they are also just a great live band :)
The difference in Ellie’s voice is astonishing. She sounds better than ever. The whole band sounds better than ever. The key player is a potent addition.
Bro did u just use the word potent 🤨
adds a new dimension
Keys players band is called Superfood, check them out. Wont regret x
💯💯💯💯💯💙
@@ciaran4th 🎙🎙💯💙
Ellie's voice is becoming an air raid siren, wow. I think this is easily the best live performance of Don't Delete The Kisses I've seen, and her voice is much more powerful than it was back when I saw them live in 2017.
I was about to say the same thing. Her voice really developed a long way since Dont Delete The Kisses, this shows on her most recent album too!
That effects chain on her vocals is killer on this. Normally whatever they’re running dies on those choral shouts but it really sustains perfectly here.
She sounds awesome. Powerful voice with great tonal control.
Ellie got significantly better at singing live the last couple years, this is amazing
Don’t delete the kisses on this is stunning
Best live version Of it yet
They are all way better live
I do agree, do you think they will include it in the bw tour?
@@Cupidssatan I think they might start opening with it
I saw them live before a Harry Styles concert yesterday and I don’t think I’ve ever heard a woman sing as clear when live as she did, got the band a new fan
WOW. I feel like I just witnessed an already great band entering into legendary status. They are clearly having fun while blowing just about every other group out of the water. Ellie in particular is exuding a level of grace, confidence and power that scales off the charts with this performance. I know she has some ups and down dealing with the spotlight but you wouldn't know it to watch her here. This is 28 minutes of her being the most poised and captivating front person in rock right now, with a band worthy of her standing alongside. Keep that train a rollin' Wolf Alice!
She holds the stage like Bowie did
@@joshknightfall That's an interesting comparison. I recall Bowie as being much more extroverted and chatty with the audience, but then again I only saw him on the Reality tour. For myself, I see more similarities here to Debbie Harry's stage presence. Ellie maintains a similarly icy distance while also weaving an engaging yet guarded form of honesty into her performance.
This band sounds 100x better live than on record, they need a live record!
They need to get a new producer for their records that can better capture this energy.
@@IanWhelan Another thing, I've been around and talk to a handful of engineers and the entire industry has got to fucking stop insisting on recording everything on a grid, if you're making technical metal sure but the grid and command of the metronome suck the life out of a rock back
yeah their studio version are not great than their live version@@IanWhelan
She's got an even stronger voice live!
I think that the person who mixes their albums, seems to allow the vocals to be drowned out by the rest of the band on all three albums. I've just got the new album on vinyl and without the lyric sheet I'd have no idea what was being sung, yet live it's a completely different matter! I just wish they'd sack them and get some one in who can mix properly!
@@andrewhaines8603 , I would agree on the first two albums, "Visions" especially - the vocals were like mud. The newest album actually sounds better to me, but maybe its just because its new. The best representation of their talent is always in their live performances.
It definitely wasn't that strong when I saw them years ago, she's gotten way better over time.
@@andrewhaines8603 so true I’ve noticed a lot of bands have this thing where the vocals are drowned it out! evanescence is another one you can’t hear Amy‘s vocals live or on the albums most of the time, and sometimes I’ve noticed all this out-of-control distorted guitar sounds take away good drum sounds and also the bass guitar is gone from a lot of bands also
It is live!
coming up as a teen through the 2010’s I had such a strong affinity to the alt rock scene back then. The 1975, The NBHD, Arctic Monkey’s… now nearly a decade down the line my music taste has been morphed through Nirvana and Foo Fighters, Wolf Alice are a welcome homage to my original Alt rock roots, with a tinge of punk that keeps me grounded, it’s refreshing. It’s new, but familiar at the same time. Makes me feel like I’m a new era of my life again.
i can not say enough hom much i love thus band...and Ellie❤
Dont delete the kisses really reminds me of my dad and how excited he was to discover new cool music like this. I was so happy to see we both like wolf alice ♡
Actually I just discover this band and I'm stunned ! I get a feeling that reminds me about how I felt listening for the first time to The talking heads back in the late seventies. This singer is awesome in every way and she really uplift the band. The other members are fantastic too. A real revelation for me ; what a cool day this is ! :o)
Great band aren't they? My favourite song is You're A Germ. Another great band to check out is Just Mustard.
I just discovered this band too. I’m 61-years old, so I know good music. This band is just… Well, it’s just WOW.
I cant believe this is the first time I heard this band ... I have been living under a rock
I’ve only recently started listening to them again. I only really listened to a few songs by them a few years ago, but the entire Blue Weekend album is so breathtaking that I’m planning to get tickets to see them in tour
Grew up with bands miming on Top of the Pops. Now have incredibly brave bands performing live and forever, challenging songs they must know there's a risk of missing a note (love Ellie's face when that happens). So wonderful!
I love watching these guys grow up. New album is astonishingly beautiful. Being a musician past the point of trying to “make it” anymore, I love watching gifted musicians giving their art to the world. Ellie has truly found herself and I can hear it on the new album. She has shed her fear to “JUST BE” and I feel lucky to be around to witness it.
Finally!!! A new fantastic Brit band.... if they can hold it together and keep on reinventing themselves with every album release they will go to the top. I heard them completely by accident and ended up buying all of their work so far. Thanks Wolf Alice for giving us hope
Seen them the first time in the Bitterzoet Amsterdam 2015. Very small venue. You could touch them. The year after they moved to the bigger venue Paradiso, the main podium. It meant they arrived in the Netherlands. One of the better festival video, I think, is their performance on Best Kept Secret czcams.com/video/EfWjaz7LG0Y/video.html&ab_channel=Sharemania
She is one of the best front women
Better than most front people
Id say best front singer ever...
Maybe check out slothrust then and witness the greatness of Leigh!
@@jonathangoodliff6635 I’ll check them out mate 👍🏼
@@maggot5548 pmsl
This band seem to exist in a void. Just doing their thing. Not following trends and its excellent
These guys are at the top of their game... 3 albums in and hardly a foot wrong... so exciting to have a band like this around 🙏🏻
Mi banda favorita . Amo toda la música británica.
Amazing talent, on stage and off stage. The vocal and drum performances are outstanding, keys and guitars rock solid. Also hats off to the sound engineers for perfectly capturing the band!
Got they're so good 🤯🤯🤯🤯 dont delete the kisses is so emotive it's CRAZY
Brilliant band.
They are all so awesome and Ellie has something special about her presence. They are amazing live.
I just keep watching this, vocals and everything so good immaculate x
Lemme just say that the Last Man On Earth is perhaps one of the best songs performed by any Indie band in oh, literally forever. It is a set killer. Can't wait to see them perform it live!
Love this... Progressive yet harmonious and original. Great mix of instruments and styles . Mesmerising range of vocals. Love it.
The Last Man on Earth really shows off Ellie's tremendous vocal ability.
Best live version of Formidable Cool.
Agreed!!!!
Soy muy fan de la música británica, esta banda la conocí con la película Transpoiting y desde ahí nunca más dejé de escucharla, los he visto crecer y madurar musicalmente, esta aparición 2021 en plena pandemia es una coronación tremendamente buena por su calidez, voz, sonido, textura, etc... GRACIAS! SALUDOS DESDE CHILE.
Love it that Theo gets a bass solo on Smile. So great that he finally gets his big moment.
Agree. I don't think Theo and Joel get enough credit for the huge amount of drive they give the songs. Tight as!
@@darrenmcmahon4215 Very true mate.
Great Giant Peach… the tightest band out there right now and at the height of their powers! How does this ONLY have 368,000 views?!?!
Best band on the planet right now. Best live performance without a crowd since this all started. I'll be in that crowd soon though 👏
Every time they release something, they become my favorite band again :)
Luv'em.
I've finally found some modern music worth listening to. Can't stop listening to the first track!
What a gorgeous performance! Specially Last Man on Earth! I think is brilliant the use it just before finishing the show with Giant Peach
Yep, they're definitely ready to go out on the road.
What a fantastic band! I stumbled upon them listening to The Current radio station in Minnesota. The guitar player is in the creative realm of Nels Cline, a joy to watch and hear. Great songs and they’re all world class musicians. I haven’t heard a singer like her, and she rocks on guitar! What a joy to discover them!
God She's Gorgeous 💙💙💙❤
How can anyone find flaw with this band? The contrast in they're music is amazing. Absolutely incredible band!
26:14 still gets me.
Trust me when I say its even better live, that sheer wall of noise attacking your body in one adrenaline pumping moment is fucking euphoric
I can’t wait to be in a mosh pit at that moment
Formidably cool is such a...cool song
Espectacular como siempre! Tremenda banda. El contraste que hay entre el final de Don't Delete The Kisses y el comienzo de Smile, es brutal!
sooo underrated. Hope to see them live someday!!
Hoping to see them in January next year but tickets are selling out fasssttt
They just keep getting tighter, & more creative.
The best rock band going atm.
One of the best bands of 2021 ❤️
The keyboard player was part of British band.... Superfood, I believe. It was good. The show was incredible! as always
Thank you for putting that out and giving support for someone doing the "sidemouse" gig!
("Touring" non "band member" which adds to the material live.)
Yup! Ryan Malcolm :)
Yeah, and im a blue collar worker in Minnesota. I adore Wolf Alice. First group I thought was AMAZING in thirty years. I decided I coulnt listen to just David Bowie and the Rolling Stones for the years I have left. He does not belong. Maybe for live shows when they start playing arenas.
Wow, this live performance rocks even harder than the albums! Great job!
I love this group , Formidable Cool indeed .
What a sound! Chills, chills all the time!
Incredible band..
What a Voice!!!
Masterpiece!!!!
Thank you guys!!!!
Love you from Greece!!!💕💕👌🙏
Don't Delete The Kisses was made for her voice, magical. xx
It took me around a week to dig into their music, but finally I dig it... These kids are trying to make art, not the type of rubbish you hear on the radio every day... I am sure that they will become huge in following years... p.s.: didn't she just censored herself while singing "Smile"... BBC guys must have been pleased about it...
This is the best band around. Thanks for uploading the video!!
don't think i've ever come back to a live set so many times
wow , been a minute since I've watched and heard them , wow !!!!!
Absolutely stunned, wow, wow, wow she has got it the voice and guitar playing, Love this band!
Blondie for a new generation. Amazing
Much better than blondie imo.
Even looks a bit like her.
When I listen to Wolf Alice I am reminded of bands from the past and present...shoegazing bands like My Bloody Valentine, Ride, and swerve driver....grunge like.Hole, Nirvana, Soundgarden, Stone Temple Pilots...psychedelic beginnings of heavy metal...like Jefferson Airplane and Hawkwind...other influences are definitely PJ Harvey and maybe a bit of Patti Smith...Great stuff....
I just found out about this band a few days ago and I've gone down rabbit hole watching videos of their performances. What a great band! One thing that's unfortunate is that the live versions of their songs are almost always better to much better than the album versions. I guess I'll just have to download the audio of the really good live performances and compile my own Wolf Alice album.
100% what I say about them! I vaguely listened to them on Spotify, but wasn’t super wowed or anything. Then I won free tickets to one of their shows in the states 4 years ago. Their live performance literally blew me away, into a rabbit hole of obsession. I’ve seen more than 100 artists and bands perform live, and they were hands down one of the best I’ve ever heard. Experiencing their music live completely changes how you hear their music, both live and recorded. They are quite simply incredible.
Wolf Alice out there killing it as always 🤘
I hear Smashing Pumpkin influence in the main riff of "Smile" and the chorus riff in "Formidable Cool"
'Dont Delete The Kisses' IS the perfect pop record. Ever.
I’m an old rocker but so love this band
Ok watching it every day now like other brilliant performances from bands i love. Daily dose of superb!
Wolf Alice is evolving from all their foundational elements released in the debut My Love is Cool. The direction is heavy with groove and mystic. Ellie continues her discernment and refinement. Its tight, the triplets and fills, the riffs, chords, chants laid down with some Enoisfication, Roxy Music creamy, even some Debra Harry in there with you cats. Its going up there. Out there. Congrats. See you and we're never coming down.
Don't Delete The Kisses is great live. She's stunning
The vocal harmony is fantastic.
I love Bro's so much. such a great song. Reminds me of summers as a kid.
These guys need to put out a live album.
just discovered this band - amazing !!!!
that bassist is loving it during smile!!
Great Performance! Made my Weekend!
Your Blue weekend?
Saw Last Man On Earth on tv and Ellie was playing the keys, that song works way better with her on her own at the mic, she looks vulnerable without an instrument and for that song it works a treat. So love Giant Peach it’s sooooo cool. The band are awesome.
That's my favourite version of Giant Peach so far. Amazing!
Cant wait to see live for the first time... please come to Netherlands soon!
Kan niet wachten!
I saw them in Utrecht a couple of years ago and it was amazing
is it even Giant Peach if Ellie and Theo don't do the dance?
WOW! These cats are phenomenal!
25:14 - i'm not a drummer and got no idea whether that trick was something hard to do or not, but looks like he's killing it
First time hearing this group live. Don't Delete The Kisses is great (I hear a bit of U2 in there) and Smile really reminds me of early Smashing Pumpkins. Hearing Stevie Nicks in The Last Man on Earth too. Great set - great sound.
Ellie's got such a good voice 🎶🙂👍
Thanks for sharing, many of us in Latin America we couldn't see it. :,)
BLUE WEEKEND IS A MASTERPIECE
Major congratz are in order for the core band staying together for 11 years. That isn't easy and it has rather obviously been rewarding - really good songs, exceptionally well done.
Smile is just such a great song
Wow, The Last Man on Earth, what a beautifull song. Will buy a ticket for their concert in Luxembourg. It looks like she matured😀 Last time I saw her was on Rock Werchter podium 4. I like the what I see.
Outstanding Band here, variety of styles is superb and the various ways Ellie can sing is amazing, shes very 'well spoken' too.
Im an ex dance club DJ from the north west from '97-2012, trance and bouncy vocal house was my thing, but ive always loved stand out indie bands, like happy mondays, oasis, stone roses, charlatans and more recently the ting tings..
For sure Wolf alice have to be the best all round band / music creators of the last few years
Real talent by all the band members.
SOOOOOOOOOOOOO Good!!! Saw them in Seattle last week. SEE THEM LIVE IF YOU CAN.
Ellie at 26:13 reminds me of Galadriel from Lord of the rings when she gets a taste of the ring. Beauty blended with fire 😍
"Giant Peach" is better performed live. And this one IS THE BEST !
Loved the set. Interesting how the vibe changed as they almost fell back into Giant peach
Absolutely fantastic, brilliant musicianship, just love them.
Can't wait to see you in February both in Copenhangen and Gothenburg - it's gonna get messy! Will be my 4th and 5th time seeing you, cant wait to hear the new songs live.
Seriously talented band.
Great stuff, one of the best band's around, talented, like sol, seppy, lanterns on the lake, Alice, pheobe lou, Hosier, & other 2,020's, type 90's stuff, interesting to be a fan of from older people of the age fans are now, in the 90's, things improving??
best of British love this band.
