Live reviews
All That Remains have the kind of force behind their musical performances that allows them to shake rooms with their loud, heavy guitar playing, double bass drum playing, and screaming in your face type vocal style.
Two things that a metal band must be when playing live is heavy and fierce, and All That Remains definitely accomplishes this task. Although All That Remains often has heavy dissonant sounds, they also incorporate a very melodic style of playing to their music as well. Their bass player, Jeanne Sagan, will sometimes sing in incredibly harsh, high-pitched and dissonant screams, while the lead singer, Philip Labonte, will sing in a more melodic voice during the chorus, but will often breakout into a complete rage, bellowing his vocals off like deep growls of an angered beast. The guitarist, Oli Herbert, has very angular style of playing music that consists of shredding solos in inharmonic scales.
The band definitely has the perception of a tough guy persona with all the members dressed in black and banging their heads to the fast and loud rhythm of the metal music they are blasting. Philip Labonte is fierce on stage, running all around and jumping up on the drum platform to belt out his lyrics. The crowd is just as excited and enthralled into the performance by showing displays of crowd surfing and starting up mosh pits. The band is also very acknowledgeable of the audience by frequently checking up on the audience during the performance to see how they are doing. The stage theatrics at their concert is also spectacular with bright strobe lights violently flashing over their stage that is filled with a layer of smoke.
All That Remains definitely knows how to present an epic rock show that is likely to melt your face off with their intense music and leave you absolutely ecstatic after their performance.

All That Remains seem to be on tour constantly, and one would imagine this would leave the band worn out and lacklustre onstage whereas in reality it seems to invigorate the band to make every single evening the best live performance so far. Energised by their devoted fan base who's cheers could lift the roof before the lights go down, the Massachusetts metal heads appear onstage and tear into 'Now Let Them Tremble' which drowns out the screams.
Running through the fan favourites, there is mass moshing and head banging during 'Six' as Philip Labonte encourages to lose themselves and go all out for the band. They tear their instruments apart with such ferocity you wonder how the guitars have not spontaneously combust by third track 'The Last Time'.
The crowd jumps in unison for 'Some of the People, All of the Time' during an extended drumming solo before a massive breakdown kicks in and relieves the anticipation. The audience and band muster their final energy for an all cannons blazing version of 'This Calling' and the band exits ready to do it all again in 24 hours.

All That Remains tour so often, it would be crazy for a fan to not have seen them live yet! Every time I've seen them, Oli walks around and greets fans! Great guy, although people thought he was Rob Zombie when they opened for him at Krrofest in Sioux Falls, SD! These guys put out so much energy in their shows! So watch out for mosh pits and crowd surfers! They sound just like on the albums and always play old stuff along with their newest releases! You will not be disappointed to see ATR!

All That Remains was amazing! The
entire band has an awesome energy. The mix of songs they played was the best. They rocked the House of Blues and really got the crowd going for the headliner Alter Bridge.

Great band, great venue, good sound. What a great show. It would have been nice for the band to hang around for photos afterwards although. They were extremely tight as musicians and extremely skilled.
