I love the first lyric so much, "I've seen your city... *A THOUSAND TIMES!"* Like he's finally exploded into clear determination. I wish the original album had that same quiet start and then explosive voice raise.

This man can put more passion into the story of a fictional robot every time I hear him be it in official videos or recorded off 10 year cell phones than most other artists can do belting out stories from their actual lives. But also wehn Act III?

I am so thankful that their cover of "In the Air Tonight" was in Cobra Kai... it makes it so much easier to talk about this band with people... because that is all I want to do for the rest of the week whenever I listen to the Protomen.

Nothing gives me second wind quite like this song.

I am so glad the sound in this video is really well done, too many times in their live performances it sounds like the audio levels are not properly setup, its so nice to see them preform as they actually sound.

I think I've finally realized what his voice reminds me of. His voice is what happens when you take Freddie Mercury (apt, given how much they cover Queen and how he nails it every time) mix his voice with Alan Vega. You get Vega's croon with Freddie's power and high notes!

I 100% agree, his voice is great, in fact, the whole band also seems very very skilled, their songs are really good too! If there's a band that i hope it explodes with popularity like Ghost did, it's these guys, their work is awesome!

I'm coming to see you guys in Amsterdam. Venezuela to Spain to UK to the Netherlands. I've been a fan forever, and I never thought I'd get the chance. but its a dream come true. Can't wait!

I still come back to this video because Panther's voice just completely kills it. What a legend.

The one time I wake up early, at around 6:30 in the morning in my time zone, I'm GRACIOUSLY rewarded with this and the amazing news via email (I honestly check specifically Protomen-marked emails, everything else is a lower priority for me) and after reading the amazing European Tour news I wish I could join to witness, I rushed straight here at nearly light speed. This is proof that there ARE heroes left in man. Thank you yet again, and I wish you well on the tour, albums, and documentary!! Please keep kicking ass!

Feeling the city burn from Bogota, Colombia. Amazing work guys!

Spotify suggested them for me and boy am I glad. Totally hooked now❤

Man, this is awesome, i just stumbled upon these guys... they rock so hard!

Holy shit! I never thought they'd still be so good! Amazing show guys!

I had never heard of them till recently but I liked everything about this, shared and subbed.

Saw them live twice in Boston, the live show is something to experience!

I'm so glad my friend introduced me to the Protomen back in Navy A School. That left an imprint on my mind five years ago, and that imprint will stick around for a lifetime. I get chills listening to these two albums, and I don't know if my heart can take a third oof.

I love you guys! Cheers from Argentina!

Y'all are gonna blow up, I'm sure. Didn't know I needed this in my life before right now. Thank you, and keep it up!

What an awesome band.

This band's so freaking great.

I originally came across a fan edited music video on KZread back when you guys were newish, back before I knew you guys did music about megaman, but this was the song and I was an instant fan.

What a great concert! You guys have fans in Brazil

Damn dude! I just discovered this band and saw you guys were in Nashville in April! Can't wait to see you guys next time! Keep it up!

Always, absolutely amazing! Greetings from Maranhão, Brazil!

Brings back memories. Miss seeing you guys in Richmond all the time way back. That show at Empire in 2006 was something special.

man the solo is GREAT is this performance.

I saw these guys in baltimore for the first time and ill admit they put pn one hell of a show

The greatest live show around, bar none!

holy shit, much love from Uruguay

watched you guys live at warped tour. you were the band I went there for and I was sad at how small the crowd was, but you performed as if it was a stadium of 50k, and I loved every second. you guys are my favorite band and have been since 2006 or so when I first heard your song the stand, man or machine on an anime AMV and I couldn't help but stand still and find more of you. I hope to see you in concert again soon. I still have my poster with all of your signatures as well as the patches and lighters I bought. Light up the Night.

Best voice in rock & rollll

Always a fantastic live show! I hope the human choir behaved accordingly during the recording of the live album. Can't wait to throw you guys more money to buy it!

I am waiting for Act III and waiting for The Protomen and TWRP to tour the west coast...

Omg it finally came out!!!!! I drove 6 hours to Nashville from Ohio that day to be at this show, and we bought three copies of the Pokemon Act 1 vinyl, one I still have sealed on my desk in front of me right now, I have waited so long for this to come out, this is amazing!!!

This hit me with that sort of feeling like a religious fervor, all praise the Protomen, may their reign last for eternity!

Fucking awesome! Love you guys

Im traveling to Nashville for New Years just to watch them live and I don't think that I've ever been more excited for a concert in my whole life. I've been blasting Live in Nashville non stop to get me hyped and I still get chills every time. The only other band that I've liked so much that I don't get sick at all of listening to them over and over again is Pink Floyd. Counting down the days!

The feeling when the live version has better production than the studio recorded version

I’ve never wanted to play a Keytar more than I do while watching this video.

Come to Dallas again!!!

Honestly almost as hyped for that quality live album as I am for Act III

Come to Cincinnati!!!

that guitar solo at 3:00 made the hair on my arms stand up

I guess this is why my dog woke me up at 4 AM? Worth it

Love the vocoder effect

Holy crap are you guys still a thing where is part III O.O I love you guys

hope rides aloooooooooooooone

HOPE rides...aaaalooooneeeee!!!!!!

Live alblum hell yeah!!

4:09 maybe its just me, but I always hear a callback to Kick Axe "Nothing's Gonna Stand in our Way" in the synth in the background, and as an anthem of my childhood that's awesome.

I've never been able to see them live, but this video looks amazing! They've not come around here, its like, a $170 flight east if I wanted to see them in Vancouver, I don't have anywhere near that kind of money for a flight to a concert xP

Just saw y'all in Richmond a little ways back, and let me tell ya, y'all fucking rock live!!!
