"Alive in Athens" is maybe the best live album ever made. Must watch!

One of the most underrated metal bands!

One of the most underrated bands ever! Love Iced Earth!

Pure Evil from this same live concert is insane!

I love Iced Earth, I love the years with Matt Barlow the vocalist. This was filmed in 99 in Athens, Greece, the live album is called Live in Athens. It was a concert filmed in two nights and is such a classic. Any song from this concert is a good one to react.

Iced earth is my favorite band. When I was in college one of the guys that played mtg gave me 2 CDs to listen to. One was Blind Guardian, Fall of Middle Earth and Iced earth title album. Needless to say they changed my taste in what heavy music was. My younger brother heard this and couldn't figure out how he was picking so fast, he started working on it and eventually got better and is now a phenomenal guitar player. Iced Earth changed both our lives.

Hope you go down this rabbit hole; so many good songs. The Coming Curse is another great one along with the ones mentioned above.

If she loves Matt's low vocals, just wait until you hear his high notes. Try Travel in Stygian from the same show (Alive in Athens 1999). Edit: A Question of Heaven from their Dark Saga (1996 album) is another great choice to showcase his low and high notes!

The banging guy with the glasses at 08:32 it's me!!! The live was held at Rodon club in Athens back in 1999

This is their epic masterpiece, although they did a 30 minute epic called Gettysburgh which is also worth checking out. The rhythm guitarist Jon Schaffer will be the only constant you see in the band, he's basically Iced Earth, and the rest has always been a revolving door, but this singer is usually the favorite, and had two stints with the band. This song doesn't even show off his full range either, he can hit some insane highs as well.

One of the best live metal álbuns. Alive in Athens

Best song everrrr

Burnt offerings, still one of the best metal albums. 🤘

You will love Dracula

You guys are so much fun!

One of the best power thrash metal bands ever! And Mat Barlow is an Angel & demon singer, I love IT! After 9/11 he enroled în the Police forces and cut his hair.......

great reaction! I think you would absolutely love desert rain from the same concert

I still like iced earth,Barlow has rich,warm,soulful voice with range,the band are unbelievably tight,a typical gig can last up to 2 hours

Epic band, epic song!

Hi guys. Listen to the rest of the album (burnt offerings), I think is one of the most powerful, beautiful and underrated albums of the metal (music and lyrics). And Matt Bartlow is a monstrosity thing

Iced earth is one of the best bands out there and this is a great live album

Iced Earth are INCREDIBLE. Like others have said Gettysburg (1863) is their monster 32 minute magnum opus. Damien, Dracula and Phantom Opera Ghost off Horror Show are definitely worth checking out. The Something Wicked Trilogy is widely considered to be the bands best, but my personal favorite is Travel In Stygian also from Alive in Athens. Faster, thrashier and just more brutal - especially the solo around the 3:36 mark. Matt Barlow was the bands longest tenured vocalist joining the band in 1994 and departing in 2003 before rejoining in 2008. He also did an album with Danish progressive power metallers Pyramaze called Immortal that is mind-blowing as well. Alive in Athens is widely considered to be the bands best lineup and sound and one of the greatest live metal albums ever recorded (which took place over two nights with two almost totally different set lists) and has been released in several formats including 2cd, 3cd, limited edition 5x12" picture disc vinyl boxset, DVD, and most recently the 25th Anniversary remastered 5 LP boxset.

Iced earth Dracula is another amazing song by iced earth Because of its deep low vocal intensity intro it just draws you in instantly when it starts

Great band so many great albums they had Dark saga which was a concept album about Spawn then for at least two records ripper owens sang for them ( Judas Priest rob halford s replacement ) they are the best at the crazy chunky wild rhythms

After September 11th happened, the lead singer left the band to pursue a career in law enforcement. He returned for one more album. Then also did an entire album with Pyramaze. And has also done two bands since. Look for Ashes of Ares and We Are Sentinels

Jon schaffers right hand

Question of heaven is a good one, but it is hard to go wrong with any of their library big fan of the Matt Barlow era, but Ripper could hold his own.

[Part I - Denial, Lust, Greed - 00:00-06:22] [Intro] Through the fiery caverns we sail Virgil at my side, my guide and master Questing through the nine planes of Hell Infernal wisdom shall fill my soul Slowly now the days departing The darkened air releases me Frightening visions of my journey Entrance me to Limbo, I'm not free [Hook 1] Abandon all hope who enter here Enter the gates, Charon awaits [Guitar Solo] [Verse 1] Abandon all hope who enter here For this is where all things are left behind Every doubt and every cowardice must die Souls of rage and anger whipping in despair [Verse 2] The souls that wail on this plane pray for death Denial is the reason for their suffering Forever being stung by wasps and Demon's breath The blood and tears that fall serve the maggots' needs [Instrumental Break] [Verse 3] Descension Thrusting to the second plane Minos judges as his tail twines Lustful thoughts and greed whip these wretched souls A hurricane of hate mocks their helpless pleas [Guitar Solo] [Verse 4] Drifting now deeper into eternal flames Awake at the third circle The cold and filthy rain Punished for their gluttony Languid for all time The earth, it stinks of corpses Damned for all time The vicious beast Cerebus Three heads, blooded eyes Tears his talons through the air All the sinners cry now All the sinners cry [Instrumental Break] [Pre-Chorus 1] Down, be still thy cursed wolf The master scorns its name Dive to the next plane The sullen and the vain Suffer for their greed The prodigal, they bleed For all eternity Plutus holds the key [Chorus] Zahnah, zatas papeh Zeenah hotoh, Satah nahnay Zahnah, zatas papeh Zeenah hotoh, Satah nahnay [Pre-Chorus 2] Damned, the wrathful and the vain Suffer the fifth plane Cross the river Styx Heed your crucifix The muddied corpses cry Howling to the sky Reach the other side Open wide the gates [Chorus] Zahnah, zatas papeh Zeenah hotoh, Satah nahnay Zahnah, zatas papeh Zeenah hotoh, Satah nahnay [Part II - The Prodigal, The Wrathful, Medusa - 06:22-11:34] [Verse 5] Enter the sixth circle of barren land and flames Passing through the gate of Dis The Furies scream her name Belching forth in agony Invoking her to rise The spirit's rage consuming us The evil in her cries Queen of vipers, queen of serpents Cast their souls to stone Spread the wealth of Gorgon's power Medusa's inner soul [Guitar Solo] [Part III: The False Witness, Angel Of Light - 11:34-16:26] [Verse 6] We're drawing ever closer To the seventh Hell They violate their neighbours Their God and themselves We're sailing slowly Through the boiling river of blood Immersed in the depths below Souls scream in agony The twisted beast, he laughs He draws his arrow back His sights on anyone Exposing of their flesh He impales their hearts with ease And shrugs their piercing screams Pity is, they'll never die They'll suffer here eternally [Bridge] Sime come sate dive Sime come sate dive Sime come sate dive Sime come sate dive [Hook 2] Lucifer (Lucifer, Lucifer, Lucifer) Natas Mephisto (Mephisto, Mephisto, Mephisto) Natas Baphomet (Baphomet) Natas Asmodeus [Spoken] "Imagine a place Where every horror comes to life Where every torture is real And time stands still Eight fiery steps and we're closer to the end In a cold and timeless grave Buried head first in shit Praying all the while For a quick and painless death Scratching furiously At scabbed and oozing wounds" [Refrain] Lucifer, Angel of light Cast below, God of ice Ruling Hell, unholy trinity The traitors freeze for all eternity Lucifer, betrayer of God Tormentor, ruthless and cold Judas screaming here in agony The traitors freeze for all eternity [Instrumental Outro]

Alive in Athens is one of the greatest live albums ever made. Goddamn do I love classic Iced Earth. While you could do any song from this show, I would do the Something wicked trilogy from this show, 3 songs widely considered their best work, and a foundational piece of Iced Earth music.

Iced earth top show i love it metal

All the levels. All.

If you liked long songs, the Something wicked this way comes trilogy is the best thing since sliced bread.
