Great to see them play a hardcore setting. Deafheaven is appreciated by all genre lovers.

[tomasdocherty]

think it's really cool that they recognised that they were at a hardcore festival and decided that it was a better idea to not play tunes from their latest shoegazy album.

[malbennett]

Worthless Animal is a masterpiece. That whole album is insanely intense & the last scream makes me feel like I've climbed Everest and I'm screaming all my existential pain into the stratosphere. Its hard being a 43 year old, skint, single dad, but fuck me, music like this makes this life beautiful.

[SubinKimBTS]

Who would have known that an American black-gaze band in a Manchester hardcore punk festival would tap the primordial origin of music—with the help of great audience? This surely is one of the greatest musical performances of all time.

[willvilabcn]

Definitely shed a tear or two in this one. I'm not even the biggest Deafheaven fan, but after 3 days of sweat, bruises and hardcore, they just hit differently. Such an emotional experience for everyone in that room.

[FANKANable]

Opening with Black Brick? That's legendary

[rkwgsju]

45：38 when I saw those guys rushing onto the stage, screaming to the mic....that guy just held George's head tightly, shouting out anything about dream house....then they hugged. This is my first time weeping like this in front of the screen, Deafheaven do creates the world and emotions we always try to deliver out

[xbvzzpc]

45:23 S/O the guy who went full spidey pose, crawled on stage, screamed lyrics to then screaming in the mic as George was screaming with the guy grabbing his head- beautiful🔥

[WEON]

47:00 my literal reaction to that part of the song

[FlipperWolf]

Post-black band playing to a hardcore crowd, and it's glorious; it's fucking amazing ahah

[mimidreamy]

This takes me back almost like 10 years ago, seeing them when they were at the peak of their hype. So cool to see they still got it and then some.

[dystopia]

Erik from Loathe watching from the side. That's sick.

[CameronBrown]

Was right at the front, one of the best performances I've ever seen. Wild.

[irildi]

41:10 has to be one of the most graceful dives I have ever seen.

[TheseBitchesWantNikes]

41:46 Kerry is just psyched to see people stage-diving for his band again.

[mohammedsadeysalmi]

New bassist is fucking rad. And this could be Deafheaven's best set ever.

[djyjkpg]

Best post-black metal band of all time

[crooked-halo]

What the _hell_ did I just watch? I heard "Punk Rock MBA" say Deafheaven is "hipster black metal" so I _had_ to hear part of a song to know what this is. Only "part" since it's gonna suck, right? I just watched almost an hour of magic. It was strange they were at a hardcore festival. "This doesn't fit!" I _do not_ like this music. But whatever happened on that stage, and in that crowd was beautiful, stunning, captivating. It's hard to describe! Was there a single hardcore kid that could say anything negative about that? That was possibly the highlight of Outbreak Festival! It looked like the highlight of those _gifted_ musician's careers! They sure played like it was! I still probably won't put Deafheaven on my stereo, but WOW!

[phkused]

Damn they sounded so fucking good during honeycomb. It was like an exact album match! Crazy!
