God bless Steak Bentley for getting people into Protomen I thankfully had a friend convert me 🙏🙏🙏

I've never seen them live, but I bought Act I on CD back in the day and it's SO GOOD. "Unrest in the House of Light" has to be one of my fav rock songs ever.

Literally my favorite band, hope they release act 3 at some point in the next 5 years.

honestly, any song they cover somehow sounds BETTER than the original, such as "Because the night" (originally by Patti Smith) and "The Trooper" (originally by Iron Maiden)

I got the band randomly suggested to me a while ago and it's probably one of the best things youtube has ever recommended to me

Gotta love the Protomen, I heard of them thanks to I Fight Dragons almost a decade ago and holy shit they're amazing. Their live album is such an amazing piece of musical work.

A good 3 minutes of this video has convinced me that the title is a Factual statement.

I flipping LOVE The Hounds it's my favorite Protomen song

Not including Keep Quiet in between Breaking Out and Light Up the Night?? Wild! The best triptych in their whole body of work.

You know I am going to go out on a limb here and say that there is a sort of sheer absolute unfiltered raw joy that only a drummer can completely demonstrate when playing their instrument. And I am not saying that that joy doesn't exist among the other instrument players, but the demonstration of that? I mean look at this guy! To see a man love what he does the way this man does? I mean if you are even interested in playing drums for God's sake go get a kit and freakin do it! First time viewer, fan forever! Subscribed!!!!!!!!!! Protomen forever!

2 years later and i've still watched this particular video at least 40 times. Love Protomen and watching you enjoy and play along is awesome

Was introduced to the protomen by your stream and especially love your covers of them, very glad some are uploaded to KZread to enjoy forever!

Act II is one of the best things that ever happened in music.

Fantastic video, just saw them in concert a week before the time of writing this comment. Wish that my homies and I watched this in prep for their concert.

I adore The Protomen. It's been way too long since I listened to their albums, thank you for motivating me to give them another listen.

What I love about this one is it's just pure frickin' joy, you're just jamming to the music and have an absolute ball the whole time.

Thank you for the cover, it really did cheer me up. I used to listen to the protomen in school, you brought back so many memories. Love the protomen , and love you. - from a 20yo french boy

Stumbled on this video. Reanimator would be proud. Hell of a drummer here, and your love for Protomen is so apparent and infectious.

Oh my god. The was the crossover I didn't know I needed. The Protomen are my favorite band of all time and I will always recommend them.

I've seen these guys live. Fantastic show!

you should totally drum with them on stage!! im sure theyd love to have you at a live show sometime, perhaps at a magfest?

Very very sad I missed this stream- hopefully I'll catch the next Protomen binge.

oh look, another band to binge.

Would love for this album to be a Broadway show 🔥

One of the first times I saw you was on your stream where Light Up the Night came on and you put the shades on singing along then you got a Kazoo out and did the solo. For the life of me can't find it on youtube. Was so awesome to see.

11:00 goes HARD

I just LOVE seeing how much this boy is enjoying the music. Stay happy, bro.

Ya got chops, pal. Recently got obsessed with Breaking Out myself.

They’re doing a concert near me next month with a group called Makeup and Vanity Set and I’m seriously thinking of going. Though, I’ll almost certainly going to the Anamanaguchi concert at the same venue a month after.

After 10 odd years of being a fan, I FINALLY got to see the Protomen live at MAGFest and you guys… this man is right. They are absolutely insane live. You need to check them out if you can get into a show.

I LOVE LIGHT UP THE NIGHT

Need to listen to more Protomen, literally added their songs to my spotify.

I now have these on my “Absolute Bangers” playlist

I absolutly love *Light Up The Night* and *Hounds* . Its sad how unknown Protomen are

listen to hold back the night, its their best song

Seen them live twice at a little hole in the wall venue in Oklahoma City. They are magnificent! If you get the chance to see them live then at the end of the set start a chant of "One more song" over and over and then subtly transition to "Vi-et-nam". The drummer was so confused by this.

After watching this I had to sub! Great taste!!

I remember being introduced to the protonmen by a Metal Gear Solid IV retrospective. After that I looked them up and listened to them heavily. I was able to pick up their collector’s LP. The case was a frikin popup book!

Great Band.Act 2 is one of the best concept albums ever.We are waiting for Act 3.Protomen pls do something.Love from Athens,Greece.

The Hounds is one of the best villain songs I've ever heard in my life and it's such a pleasure to listen to every time!!!

the light up the night part is SO good

I saw them live at Pax Prime in Seattle and it was an unforgettable experience. I've seen Metallica live and I would put the Protomen up there as the cream of the crop.

You made me realize that I never played a single Protomen song on the drums (I had to sell mine to move) and now I'm sad.

Oh my god PLEASE do more protomen

I have been on a protomen binge lately.

The Wolf Among Us 2 brought me here!

Yooo protomen Neat

THIRD ALBUM FUCKING WHEN

I agree. I have been a fan since 2012 I think

The best of the best !!

YESSS LOVE THEM

TWRP next!

I think it's criminal that it skipped right over keep quiet but continues with might up the night Could you imagine all three being played back to back

Oh god breaking out is so good!

That is the most american water bottle I have ever seen. Jesus. Good on you to stay hydrated and all, but.. still. That's more than a day's worth in a single bottle.
