Destabalize/MotherShip
Destabilize is an epic metalcore track that mixes some hardcore dubstep beats into the wicked breakdowns. The thing I like about this song is how much fun the band seems to be having, exuding a huge amount of energy into their performance. Rou Reynolds doesn't have the best voice in the world but he makes up for it with a wonderful stage presence, taking time to swing over to the electronica controls and jumping around the stage. The performance takes a wild turn when it breaks into Mothership with the memorable string-inspired melody that introduces the track on their first studio album. This launches into a grimy dubstep intro they affectionately named Motherstep, groovy and deliciously deep-toned, wringing out some of the dirtiest beats I've ever heard. Funny moment: Rou smiling and saying "If that sounds heavy, that's because it is."
The Paddington Frisk
This isn't a live track, but the video is just hilarious. Enter Shikari produce a short PV for a Japanese audience and get the anime treatment. It's like a crazy Asian game show that ends in one of the most fun breakdowns they've ever produced. For a short song it packs a wallop!
