Those are the bands I find are WAY better live (I usually don't even bother with their studio crap, especially with Jimi Hendrix, Grateful Dead and Led Zeppelin).
Iron Maiden In Flames High On Fire Opeth Behemoth Wolves in the Throne Room AC/DC I've seen all of those bands live, and they're amazing. Rammstein looks to put on an astounding show aswell
I've heard Nine Inch Nails are. Never seen them live, but I just ordered the Beside You In Time DVD :) Muse are better live too.DrSponge
For being a band that's so electronic, Nine Inch Nails put on one of the best shows out there. And Beside You in Time is just complete sensory overload. The lighting and stage set up is a amazing. But that doesn't even touch on how great they sound.
As for Muse, I don't think it's possible for them to sound any worse than they do on their albums. :P

Hmm, I'm starting to think I should have got the Blu-ray version instead of the ordinary DVD.
Buy it now :x I found out how fun online shopping is today :lol:DrSponge
I love online shopping. Really, if Amazon were a person, I'd marry it. :P And I'm working on getting all of Trent's albums before his DVD's. I just got myself a copy of The Downward Spiral, actually.
I guess i am the oddball in this thread, because i don't think anyone is better live than in the studio. I just prefer the sound of music that is produced and perfected, and not the live sound that is usually hollow.

I want all of them, but I'm not really that willing to pay for all the singles and remix albums. Though I'll probably do it because I'm a collector.

Those are my lowest priority. Right now, I just want to get a physical copy of all of his actual albums. Then I want anything live. And then all the remixes. :P
That shouldn't be possible.

Why not? Nine Inch Nails did just that and then some when I saw them.
95% of metal bands are as good live as on studio albums. really, pretty much if a band is good and not overproduced or crap, theyll be as good live. bands that really stand out live - Pink Floyd, Iron Maiden, Kreator, Motorhead, to name a few.

Ugh, I just saw a new copy of Still on Amazon going for 75 British pounds :cry: Looks like I'm going to have to buy used...

What?! :o I know it's rare but it's only $10 on nin.com
Hmm, if it's so rare then why is it only $10? :? No idea why it was going for 75 pounds when I saw it. I can't find the page to show you as well :?
No...you enjoyed the music live better. But the studio versions should not be lacking unless they have crap producers.

Obviously.
The studio versions weren't lacking. But changes are made to a song when it's played live. In the case of Nine Inch Nails, all of the songs sounded more energetic and full. And overall, better than their studio counterparts.

I'm going to take that as the production is lacking.....>__>
