Animals As Leaders - CAFO (St.Petersburg, Russia, 25.04.2013) FULL HD

My first show this year, finally, Incredible cosmic instrumental metal music.
Animals As Leaders performing "CAFO" from their album "Animals As Leaders" (2009)
Live at Zal Ozhidanya Club, St.Petersburg, Russia 25.04.13 during Thallium Festival 2013.
Thanks to the club and Booking Machine Agency for making this show possible. And of course thanks to the band for this neat performance.

[desperanto.]

Javier came straight from his office to this gig.

To be honest I have the most respect for the drummer. Obviously Tosin is one of the most talented guitarists of all time, don't get me wrong, but a lot of these kind of bands program all their drums on the recordings then realise they're actually imposible to play so they can't get a drummer good enough, but AAL managed

[amateuracoustics]

Arguably the future of instrumental guitar music.

[TeslaNick]

As if the drum track wasn't awesome enough already, Matt takes it to a whole new level. Simply amazed by this dude...

[OG.PoshCat]

Matthew Garstka is absolutely unreal behind the kit, brings so much life and energy to the music -- fucking PHENOMENAL musician!

[braxtonburke]

Matt is UNREAL! I really wanna see these guys live

[LetotheBlue]

St Petersburg's crowd looks awesome.
It's like in french gigs, there are way more people jumping and clapping than robots filming the show with their phone, and that's the way it should be baby !

[darkrthanshadows]

the drummer souls left his body, u can see that's automatic for him

[indietjafs]

Hahaha, When matt just goes total beast and bash the shit out of the drums ! Freaking great drummer !

[mattg]

I see people like Tosin and think 'Jesus, he'd think my band's songs are so boring'

[singtall]

the drummer is just off the chain! bad to the bone.

[TylerHNothing]

I think the new drummer makes it feel like there is a real drummer playing to the music, and not some robot like what was on the album, he is unreal

[JimmyB]

Anyone know the story behind the guy coming up and flipping off Javier? Was it a guy in the audience or someone from another band performing that night?

[dwprado]

Love this song and Garstka's rendition of it. He's unreal.

[ApoteosisGuitar]

2:27 I was too amazed by the most awesome metal face I have ever seen in my whole entire fucking life to ever been pulled off by a dad-looking Javier to even care about the drum part ahaha

[TedThomasTT]

Javier looks like he came to the gig straight from his part-time accountancy job.

[jbarile]

javier looks like he's dressed to give a lecture. i fucking love it

[Cosmoflips]

matt still can improvise like this song is not complicated enough

[socialdef]

if you pause @ 4:40 you will see Javier getting the middle finger practically in his face, wtf who is that guy?

[vengeancebyvenom]

When you have 8 strings on your guitars, who even needs bass, am I right?
