Atoms for Peace

One of the best live shows I've seen this year. Every song was better than the last. Thom is one of the only performers that completely grooves to every moment of his songs. He knows how to get down.

Great Show, Great Sound, Great Seats in a Great Venue!

They were awesome! I see atoms for peace and Of course radiohead every time their in town and then in Santa Barbara I do like Santa Barbara better because the pit is great but the band is Amazing no matter where they are playing!

this is one of the best shows i have ever seen. i have been to hundreds of shows. this one was excting, simple, electric, awesome!! the energy was great!! can't wait to see them again!

Throughout the entire concert, I stood there with my jaw dropped. I've seen Thom Yorke and Radiohead numerous times, but this was intimate. He was singing to me. He was great to watch with Atoms for peace and I look forward to their new album.

These guys were just GREAT!!! The music... oh the music. That's what i call EARGASM! Thank You for a great show!!

Some new titles. Some great Yorke songs. A little Radiohead. Great Show!

really outstanding. incredible light show too. i would go again.

Tom Yorke is amazing! Most of the songs are not Radiohead songs, but its good music!

i personally have never seen either radiohead or rhcp live so it was a great experience to see thom and flea perform. i also think its rather amazing to see this kind of music performed live. it sounds very electronic on recordings, but you see its all instrumental. so cool to watch. thom did two solo songs, one on guitar and one on piano (everything in its right place). both awesome. what can you say when you see music like this in a small venue? i was blown away. not to mention i had a cold so i talked the doorman into letting me into VIP. nice add on! some other rock legends in the house. Michael Stipe (REM), one of the dudes from The Talking Heads. Also spotted Paul Rudd. Overall great experience, even with the cold. I feel much better today!

Flea's bass absolutely rocked. Band sounds like they've been together forever. Applause for two ticket, show your credit card and id admission policy -- wave of the future, that. Some time in my lifetime, the tall people won't all need to stand in the front!

Superb show, although the venue was too crowded to move around, the show was absolutely amazing

Unbelievable showcasing of pure, natural talent. These boys performed the best show i've seen since...Radiohead's last tour.

Atoms for Peace was out of control. Thom Yorke knows exactly how to keep the audience interested and into the music with his crazy moves and fun attitude. Most people at the show were real nice. Roseland Ballroom just isn't the best place for people under 6 feet tall (I'm 5'3") because it's impossible to see anything if you're not in the front row!

I am a major fan... so just being in the building was a gift... Very difficult to see the stage standing on the floor with no screens. . Was lucky to get up to the balcony!!! to see the boys . Thom is just an amazing entertainer and looked like he was having a great time. The band was great . Loved hearing Eraser and RH stuff. Wish I could return tonite for show 2. anxious to see the play list .. Thrilled they did "feeling pulled apart by horses" !! :):):):):):):):)

Tight, fun, loud. They did a good job reproducing The Eraser. Hard to understand Thom at times when speaking. Flea was fun to watch, and Thom is one funky dancer!

Thom Yorke and Co. never disappoints. Incredible show! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

The show was a lot of fun - you could really tell the guys were enjoying themselves up there. It was great to see Thom a bit more relaxed and playful with the crowd; he seemed really responsive and accessible in the setting. All the songs were performed brilliantly with great energy and intrumentation. And of course, Flea was a lot of fun to watch rock OUT. Great dynamic, great show. Highly recommended!

Roseland is an amazing venue. Nice and intimate. There are even a row of seats up against the wall, which is nice if you don't feel like being pushed and having sweaty bodies brushing up against you all night. I have never seen Radiohead, but Thom Yorke definitely won my respect. To see him and Flea jumping around on stage and vibing off of eachothers guitars was priceless. At times I felt like Thom was channeling his inner raver. The fans were pretty tame in the general admission standing area on the floor.

Just amazing. Thom Yorke is a GOD, his music is beatiful.

This was just a special show. I enjoyed the Atoms for Peace album, but not as much as I expected to. Thusly I was naturally a bit cautious of getting tickets for the live show. But hey,it is Thom Yorke, so I bought them and couldn't be happier that I did. From the moment they came on stage all the way through the two encore's they just rocked,plain and simple. The Electronic Infused Rock of Flea and Thom Yorke radiated though the Hollywood Bowl and 95% of the crowd never left their feet. Probably because at various moments in the show Thom and Flea were engaged in a vigorous dance battle which seemed to repeat itself throughout the Bowl,from aisle to aisle. At the end of all this,at the end of two Encore's,they said goodnight and as we left the sreens flashed a message: Don't leave:Please Stay...and that led to a new music video for "Before Your Very Eyes" Playing on the monitors...perfect way to end a great show...a special show.

As usual the quality was amazing. Content was also fabulous. Seemed a bit less personal with less interaction than in 2010.

Amazing show. Thom yorke and Flea killed it. And I always love the Hollywood bowl.

I've read that there isn't a bad seat in the Hollywood Bowl, and we did have seats quite far from the stage, but the sound was incredible. And, the big side screens helped with the close-up shots. The light show didn't need premium seats, either.

The transformation of AMOK into a life performance was sloppy and poorly executed. I expect more from musicians like Flea and Thom York. I was also disappointed by the stage design. The fact they built up the crowd excitement at the end of the show to what I thought would be a special guest encore, was even more distasteful and deceiving. I did not pay to see a video premier in a giant screen. Not worth the money. I'd recommend to anyone considering going to wait for the DVD to come out.

First of all I have to say is wow!!! I could not believe I witnessed such an amazing performance. If you think Thom's voice sounds unbelievably great I'm the CD you will be so surprised in live show. I could just drown in a sea of that voice. Also Flea is just a maniac at what he does. So much energy in the whole group!! If you sincerely enjoy Atoms For Peace you shouldn't give it a second thought to see them live. I am genuinely grateful I got to see them live and it's definitely a show that will stick with me forever.

Atoms for Peace at the SBBowl was one of the best concerts I've ever seen!

Atoms 4 Peace delivered two power shows in SoCal culminating with a magical set under a big moon and balmy weather in Santa Barbara...

Great sound, very entertaining, awesome venue, overall an amazing show.

Fantastic show. Great sound. Great crowd. Wonderful venue right near downtown. Shows start and end early due to curfew which is fine with me.

Nothing memorable. Yorke, on piano, for a moment or two conjured some transcendent emotions amongst the preconceived and weak compositions presented by the group as a whole. Too safe.

A fully loud, large and in charge funk fest starring Thom Yorke and Flea having as much fun as the crowd!

Seriously, one of the best shows I have ever seen...

Sound of the Hollywood Bowl was good. The show was excellent too.

I didn't know much about Atoms for Peace before going to this concert but I was intrigued with the idea of a collaboration between members from Radiohead and Red Hot Chili Peppers and others. The music was undeniably Thom Yorke - exceedingly interesting and unique. And every musician was outstanding. So it was a night of a great music and entertainment. They are definitely worth seeing !

We had a great time at Hollywood Bowl. The whole energy was fantastic. My favorite moment was the triple encore, where they debuted their video clip and everyone was standing and watching.

Fantastic show, would have paid three times the price for what was offered. Flea, Thom Yorke, and the entire band were on fire, they played with energy and purpose, crowd came alive and the Hollywood Bowl was en fuego. I don't have the set list, but it was mostly new stuff with the Unkle/Thom Yorke song "rabbit in your headlights" also thrown in, one of my favorite songs of all time, but with Flea voicing Danny Aiello's line from Jacob's Ladder. If you have a chance to see these guys, you need to do it, they don't sound like anyone else in the music landscape.

This was by far the best show I've EVER seen. The acoustics/sound was perfectly set up. The venue is the best in la. Atoms for Peace put on quite the show - had chills up and down my spine for the entire show. So glad I got the opportunity of a lifetime.

This writer went into the Hollywood Bowl purposely NOT having had listened to any of the music from "Atoms". I was a little worried about the show being dominated by the EDM sound. I missed the opening act, but heard it was a full-on EDM act, so I was pleased that I had missed it. It was all positive ions of energy when the Atoms took the stage. You can't help but get positive energy from bass player extraordinaire, Flea, as he jumped and hustled around the stage like his namesake. Like Flea, Thom Yorke is spending time away from his main day job and appears to be having fun with Atoms. Thom is a great singer to have for the kind of music that Atoms for Peace present. I would have to call this newer sound mostly IDM, rather than EDM. Intelligent Dance Music, as it dawned on me in the first third of show, is something I don't think I have witnessed, but found it very moving. Using atoms and energy together to explain the sound is moving in itself. I would compare and label this music as a kind of, "King Crimson of IDM", with vocals. Like King Crimson, Atoms has the energy and intensity flowing throughout its movements and also has the jazz influences that most bands of this genre and statue do not have. The set was split up. They did about a forty minute set and took about an eight minute break then came back out and did another thirty minutes. Upon leaving the stage they were about ten minutes from the Hollywood Bowl curfew and as house lights stayed dark and the audience continued clapping, a video came on and teased the crowd for the remaining ten minutes, with no return of the band. When the video was over so was the show, as the house lights came up.

It was a birthday celebration for bassist Flea and percussionist Mauro as Thom Yorke brought his groove-centric side project to the bowl on a beautiful warm night in Hollywood. They played most of the new record as well as Thom's solo material and even a Radiohead B- side. It was the new stuff,though, that really impressed. Their mix of Afro Beat, tribal, house and trance turned the Bowl into one big rave in Lagos. Since these new songs sound so different than the recorded versions a live album is in order.

Percussions percussions percussions, if you like drums you'll love their set.

Best gig of the year so far. I loved their energy and the sound that is out of this world. Just perfect.

Super fun show. Thom and flea were a pleasure to watch and seemed really into it!

This was my first concert I ever attended! So it was quite an experience, that and because I went by myself. I was hesitant at first, but as soon as the music started playing, I was so in the moment! I mean, omg I finally got to see Thom Yorke!!! I mean of course it would've been better had I purchased pool circle tickets, but what can I say, I'm content with the seat I got! I've tried purchasing radiohead tickets for their King of limbs tour, but had no luck. So I'm fortunate to have purchased Atoms for peace tickets though a radiohead concert would be 100 times better! Overall a great experience! Good things :)

Amazing show if you like ThomeYorkand Flea grooving to music all night

Most amazing show I've ever seen. All my favorite things in one: Thom Yorke's voice, Flea's bass, and the hottest tightest percussion driven band ever.

Excellent show, watching two giants of popular culture perform on state together was nothing less than heart shaking. The shows funky and ambient feel left me watching with awe and listening while being so drawn time seemed to melt away as the peace of their instruments calmed every part of me. Fun and easy the show was great, not only would I go again but next time I'll bring more people!

Great show. Though we never heard anything about the first act including who they were.

Atoms for Peace; wow, what a treat to see live! Thom Yorke and Nigel of Radiohead and Flea of the Red Hot Chili Peppers. Need I say more? Obviously, these two artists come from bands and backgrounds that are huge and great at what they do. But Atoms for Peace manages to create a life of it's own, with intense Afro beat inspired rhythms by the wonderful Joey Waronker and Brazilian percussionist Mauro Refosco. Although quite a rarity to hear Thom Yorke's solo work (The Eraser) be played live, it was even more interesting to hear Amok, the record these musicians created together. The crowd was full of energy, moving to the music and Thom and Flea acting as conductors and gesturing to the crowd. Bottom line, don't go expecting Radiohead. They are meticulous and methodical, perfect in execution. That being said, Atoms for Peace is spontaneous and rhythmic, almost like a night at the club with great music and dancing. Sometimes meticulousness does not necessarily mean better. The band creates something rare and special, and runs amok... Literally. Opening act was nothing great, typical ambient electronica you can find on YouTube or maybe a club. Boring and unimaginative when compared to Flying Lotus, the brilliant opener and musician that opened during their 2010 tour. But Atoms for Peace was too excellent to give this anything but 5 stars! If you have a chance to see this rarity, do it!!!

SHOW WAS GREAT!!! Thom Yorke is never disappointing and Flea was great.

The show was amazing, there's nothing like seeing thom yorke in person. Ingenue was sick, black swan was sick, amok was sick, every song was sick. As the playlist went on the songs got better and better. The stage setup was awesome too. I highly recommend to go watch this group live. The talent they have is incredible. Best night of my life

Thom Yorke and Flea are the best duo. They have so much fun and it shows. Amazing!

From the ambient music while the stage hands set up, to the last notes before the house lights denoted the end, one was left feeling as though they just witnessed something special. Really very amazing. It is unfortunate, however, that the 10:00pm curfew cut into the second and third encores that the band had been playing at the other venues on this tour. Might I suggest that the concerts begin an hour or two earlier so the band doesn't feel like they are being rushed off stage. It is a little distracting seeing the tour busses start up and move into position for the bands departure while the show is still happening.

Anyone who loves music would've had a kick at this show. The entire crowd was feelin it and stood there for 20 min cheering after the 2nd encore and got the band to come back out and play a cover by Joy Division. I will never forget this concert. Thom Yorke is one of a kind

Thom Yorke never disappoints, whether in studio or live. His live collaboration with Flea of the Red Hot Chili Peppers, long time Radiohead producer and musical genius in his own right Nigel Godrich, drummer Joey Waronker, and percussionist/drummer Mauro Refosco is nothing short of a euphoric flow of the musical type. Every song carried the audience through rhythms and beats that only can only be described out of a dream sequence. Yorke's lyrical prowess and unique voice coupled with these rhythms, beats and movements communicated something that was far beyond "entertainment." It tapped into a sense of life and energy in every audience member as well as the artists themselves. While glancing around for people's expressions around me, I discerned curious smiles and movements not merely of happiness or excitement, but of a level of connection to the music. Changing the setlist for every show also perhaps keeps the band from seeming predictable to us and themselves. That night at the Fox Theater in Oakland there was a perfect harmony between musicians and listeners. We had all let go of expectations and the incessant thoughts of everyday life and tasks, and were focused on this one thing. Call it an escape or merely the luck of the draw. Alas, we found a moment of peace. At some point, I could not help but think that it was all unreal. That as Thom Yorke's voice echoed in "Feeling Pulled Apart by Horses," it was all a figment of my imagination. Then I realized that Atoms For Peace had indeed taken me to another state of my mind and consciousness. Simply pure genius.

Atoms For Peace at the Fox Theater in Oakland was totally sick. Flea was flipping out from the first note, the percussion was ridiculous the whole show and Thom was amazing on guitar, piano and of course on vocals. The band looked like they were having a blast and Thom's banter with the crowd was short enough not to be annoying but it was really engaging. The light show was perfect with each song. It had great colors and movement but wasn't too much to be distracting. I sat up in the balcony but would sell my left kidney to get pit tickets for this show if it came around again. They played tracks from the Eraser, some goodies from Radiohead and some new stuff. The crowd cheered for a good 10 minutes after the band left the stage and their encore, "Love Will Tear Us Apart," blew everyone away. Great memories AFP. A heart you.

Thom Yorke was GREAT!!!!!!!! His new band was amazing!! We all loved it

I am a huuuuge Radiohead and Thom Yorke fan, and they never ever fail to deliver. As a band that haven't been together for that long, they read each other well and they vibe off of one another in perfect unison. Each musician is meticulous in their craft, and you can just tell they are having a kick a** time on stage! Thom was in a great mood and talkative... oh his dancing... he was giving it to the ladies!! His voice was well rested I think, so on ballads like Lotus Flower, he rocked it out. I've always looooved Paperback Writer, it's perfect for Flea. Harrowdown hill was pretty cool too. A full band rendition of Follow me around was priceless! It was a real treat to have been there. AWESOME!

Excellent show. Flea rocks but needs some new dance moves.

I can't help but feel a little cheated. Thom Yorke's new band Atoms For Peace are easily one of the most innovative and crushing acts in the world at this moment. Which is why I didn't hesitate to pay for the not-cheap tickets and drive the 9-hour-round-trip drive from Detroit to see them in Chicago. But what we got was a phenomenal performance which was more fun to watch than listen to. With a singer like Thom Yorke in the band, vocals are essential. And yet they were mixed lower and less clearly than shows I see at local dive clubs. I think they were trying to hype the low end and percussion to make the band sound like a live equivalent to the glitch beat production used on Thom's record, and so there was too much emphasis on sub frequencies and kick drums in general. I feel weird complaining about such a great band who performed their asses off, but the bad sound really bummed me and my friends out. The same went for opener Flying Lotus's set. It was a laptop performance, in theory much easier to control the mix on. But it was sonic mush.

From opening to closing this show rocked. Highlights were Harrowdown Hill, Feeling Pulled Apart by Horses, Airbag acoustic solo, and Lotus Flower.

A fantastic concert. The music was superb, and the dancing (by both Thom and Flea) was mesmerizing. The opening act was very good, as well.

this was a spectacular show that exceeded all expectations.

Thom Yorke is amazing. The light display was also pretty innovative. Thom Yorke jumped around the stage as Flea slapped the bass. It was awesome.

Probably the BEST show I have EVERY seen.....! The sound was amazing the lighting was amazing the vibe of AFP on stage fit perfectly...and surprisingly the crowd at the SB Bowl was not pretentious for once! I was surprised at the diversity in the fans that came to that show...I would NEVER miss a achance to see AFP again!

Ground breaking sounds! A new direction in music that captures the mind!

INCREDIBLE SHOW! Without the boundaries of their respective bands, Thom, Niles, and Flea let loose. Lots of awesome jams intermixed with ATOM's released tracks. Teasers of both Radiohead and RHCP kept these gents human.

What an amazing bunch of human beings! An unforgettable show.

Saw their show at the Hollywood Bowl the night before this and it was even better! Best concert I've seen in a very long tim!

Great show overall! We would definitely see another show.

This was a fantastic show, the venue was great, I loved every minute of it! Atoms for Peace is just absolutely incredible!

I thought that everyone in the band was on point and conducted themselve's like true professionals! However, it was still missing that Jaw Dropping mystique that a Radiohead or Red Hot Chili Peppers concert would induce

The title says it all. Best show ever in the history of concerts. Period.

Show was amazing, HUGE Radiohead fan and big Peppers fan so seeing Thom Yorke and Flea on stage together was mind blowing. Yorke is a genius and one the best performers out there. If they are playing near you DON'T MISS IT!

Show was amazing, Atoms for Peace is fun experience

Excellent way to celebrate Fleas Bday!!! Amazing concert!!!

First off I'm a HUGE fan of this band. This is the 4th time I've seen them, and I've seen Radiohead numerous times as well. Usually I would give Atoms for Peace an easy 5 star rating, but this time was different. I feel like they went on late and ended early. After their encore I noticed there was still 13 minutes left. Myself and the almost 20k people in the audience with me thought they would play at least one more song, as shows can go to 11pm at the Bowl. Instead of coming out to play another song they debuted their music video on the video screens. LAAAAME!!! They could have just emailed us all their video, and played another song.

After a 4hr drive from San Diego, we were just happy to find the shuttle and get to the Bowl. Awesome venue! Thom and Flea are amazing musicians, the music flows out of them and they put on an awesome show. I didn't dance like i wanted to, but loved watching the performance. The CD is even better to listen to after seeing them.

I admire these musicians tremendously, and I am a huge fan of their main projects. They're basically doing drum and bass that others do much better and makes me want to listen to Radiohead. A night at the Bowl is always magical, but the music was pretty meh.

The energy of this group was amazing. I came with husband and 10 year old son. The overall performance was amazing, couldn't help but dance (even though the other hollywood people were too cool for that, I guess- hah).

Such a good show. They had great energy. I'd definitely go see them again. Love anything Thom Yorke does.

I hadn't listened to the album but I enjoyed it anyway. It was a little distracting seeing flea running around. He did the same moves with the red hot chili peppers. I had to ask myself was it 1996?

Amazing show. Wish I was able to see them once a month. Flea and Yorke are amazing!

The opening band could have been better. But that wasn't the point as soon as thom walked out on stage the whole crowd arose. He played a really great set of songs. Thom Yorke has the voice of an angel. Go to this concert now!

That show rocked! Really did ! It makes me write more than needs to be said!

This supergroup puts on a show not to be missed. Thom and Flea provided maximum entertainment, artistry and soul while the other performers were totally incredible as well. They did two encore sets and at the end of the night, nobody wanted to leave the show!

If you have an opportunity to see these guys Do Not pass it up. And incredible show with the group playing all the songs from their debut album (not in order) with some other tracks added in. While all of the AMOK songs were easily recognized, they all had cool intro variations or other live tweaks that make seeing a live show like this so amazing. Could Not sit down the entire concert!! See them!!! Oh, and the lighting behind the stage was So cool!

Don't expect the Thom of Radiohead, he's free. Be prepared to dance, unless you just don't, in which case, get over yourself. The beats just move you even if you have no ryhym. I have NEVER enjoyed myself more. A MUST SEE BAND!!!

Since I was only moderately impressed with Atom for Peace's Amok album, I was unsure about attending this concert. But in the end my curiosity and undying love of all things Radiohead won out. I can't tell you how happy I am that I made that choice! The live experience is barely comperable to the recorded version. Aside from the lights, the performance and Thom Yorke's enthusiastic dancing, the instrumentation for the live performance was amazing! These adaptations upped the energy level and highlighted the band's impressive musical talents. I would choose to llisten to a live recording of Amok over the studio version any day. And his performance of UNKLE's "Rabbit in Your Headlights" was a sweet treat!

Flea is one little Bad Azz bass player... the rest of the band was pretty damn good also...

The show was fantastic! The layers of sounds and beats mixed to create new enhanced versions of familiar songs from this awesome collaboration. The musicianship was impressive. Flea is entertaining to watch too. Great time. Highly recommend it.

With Thom Yorke's voice soaring over body-shaking (technically brilliant) percussion and Flea's frenetic yet controlled bass: how could the concert be anything but wonderful? I certainly liked the album Amok, but played live by this super-band, it reached a whole new level. The music managed to be both thrillingly electronic and sensually immediate. It was great to see Thom Yorke and Flea dancing with abandon, but again, also with control. I think "Stuck Together Pieces" may have been the highlight of the show for me. Tight and engaging on the album, it came *alive" on stage, funked up and rocked up. That song serves as a great metonym for the band itself and for what they have been able to achieve first in the studio and then on stage. I wish I could seem them again on this tour!

ATOMS FOR PEACE PLAYED LIKE A BAND NOT JUST A BACK UP TO THOM YORKE.THEY ALL SHOWED SOME PERSONALITY.THOM AND NIGEL PLAYED MORE ELECTRIC GUITAR COMPARED TO THE SHOWS IN 2010.YOU HAVE TO SEE THOM YORKE LIVE.HE DOES NOT DO ALOT OF SHOWS BUT WHEN HE DOES HE KILLS IT.

The sound was muffled and distorted most of the show. UIC sound people need to brush up

This was one of the best live performances I've ever seen. They're taking music and sound to another level. It's incredible how they can take all the digital sounds on the album and play them live and make it sound 50 million times better than the album version. Now that's true talent and true musicianship!!!!!!

Great concert! Full of energy!! They put on an awesome show! Had everyone on their feet dancing!

It was like watching a show performed by an unknown band. There was not a lot of people but the energy was high. I would love to see a video from the show.

it was amazing everything was so comfortable and enjoying. the food was ok and the drinks as well. the show was so psychedelic and triply! (: i enjoyed it a lot and i will definitely recommend it to the people.

Atoms for Peace show at Barclays was unbelievable! The sounds was good and the work staff were friendly.

The band rocked out...sounded amazing.... my only complaints are that there were no TVs for us peons siting in the back..... it was definitely hard to see the band. Also, not a fan of Barclays Center - seats are very tight and they stopped serving alcohol really early.
