Parkway Drive - "Carrion" (Live at the Sydney Opera House)

Winston McCall drops low at the front of the stage for the breakdown; by the finale, the choir is rising above the guitars. Parkway Drive's "Carrion" still has its teeth at the Sydney Opera House, but this arrangement gives its closing stretch a different kind of weight.

The newly posted performance passed 115,000 views in roughly 21 hours, already far beyond the channel's usual first-day audience. It follows the band's Opera House performance of "Prey" and the behind-the-scenes glimpses leading into HOME.

"Carrion" dates back to Horizons in 2007. Here, its screamed vocals and heavy drums share the stage with strings, brass and a conductor, with floral arrangements surrounding the musicians. The formally dressed audience doesn't remain seated: people stand, clap and join McCall as he calls for them to sing.

The choir's entrance near the end is a recurring talking point in the comments. Other viewers trace their own years with the band, recalling festival pits and shows far from this concert hall. One jokes about the difficulty of staying seated through these songs.

The performance comes from the feature documentary HOME, with the accompanying live album due on 4 December. Rather than replacing the song's heavy sections, the orchestra and choir sit alongside them: the breakdown still gets its space before the voices take the finale.

The combination of the audience and performers, all dressed up and hyped up at the opera house, is just incredibly cool.

Absolutely incredible. When that choir came in I could feel my eyes welling up. Absolutely spectacular.

I freaking love that we’ve progressed metal to the point where it’s being played in the Sydney Opera House in formal attire.
