== Analysis and Explanation ==
== Analysis and Explanation ==
Animals is a song performed somewhat often by the band since its introduction on The 2nd Law Tour. Animals was one of the most performed songs during 2012, appearing at most gigs throughout the year. It was routinely performed until March 2013 when Animals was usually performed at every other night. The Unsustainable Tour brought Animals back into a permanent setlist position, though this would not last long as it was only played eight times following the end of The Unsustainable Tour. Animals was one of the very few songs from The 2nd Law to be performed in 2014.

It was routinely performed until March 2013 when Animals was usually performed at every other night. The Unsustainable Tour brought Animals back into a permanent setlist position, though this would not last long as it was only played eight times following the end of The Unsustainable Tour. For this tour, a banker actor would come onto the stage towards the end of the songs holding large amounts of "Musos" (the band's fictional currency used on the tour), who would suffer some sort of trauma and collapse dead on the stage during the outro. Animals was one of the very few songs from The 2nd Law to be performed in 2014.


For the Drones Tour, Animals reappeared for ten performances throughout 2015 before being dropped for the rest of the tour. Its setlist position was taken over by Supremacy in the summer of 2015 which only shortened Animals' lifespan on the Drones Tour. Though not one of the most played songs from The 2nd Law by a large margin, Animals is still appreciated very much by the fans, often being declared one of the album's best songs. It is likely that Animals will make rare appearances from time to time in future tours.
For the Drones Tour, Animals reappeared for ten performances throughout 2015 before being dropped for the rest of the tour. Its setlist position was taken over by Supremacy in the summer of 2015 which only shortened Animals' lifespan on the Drones Tour. By unfortunate coincidence, Animals was skipped at most concerts where pro-shots were released and at the one pro-shot gig where Animals was played at (Los Angeles), it was cut from the broadcast. As a result, no pro-shots exist from the Drones era. Though not one of the most played songs from The 2nd Law by a large margin, Animals is still appreciated very much by the fans, often being declared one of the album's best songs. It is likely that Animals will make rare appearances from time to time in future tours.

This page contains a list of all known performances of Animals.

Analysis and Explanation

Animals is a song performed somewhat often by the band since its introduction on The 2nd Law Tour. Animals was one of the most performed songs during 2012, appearing at most gigs throughout the year. It was routinely performed until March 2013 when Animals was usually performed at every other night. The Unsustainable Tour brought Animals back into a permanent setlist position, though this would not last long as it was only played eight times following the end of The Unsustainable Tour. For this tour, a banker actor would come onto the stage towards the end of the songs holding large amounts of "Musos" (the band's fictional currency used on the tour), who would suffer some sort of trauma and collapse dead on the stage during the outro. Animals was one of the very few songs from The 2nd Law to be performed in 2014.

For the Drones Tour, Animals reappeared for ten performances throughout 2015 before being dropped for the rest of the tour. Its setlist position was taken over by Supremacy in the summer of 2015 which only shortened Animals' lifespan on the Drones Tour. By unfortunate coincidence, Animals was skipped at most concerts where pro-shots were released and at the one pro-shot gig where Animals was played at (Los Angeles), it was cut from the broadcast. As a result, no pro-shots exist from the Drones era. Though not one of the most played songs from The 2nd Law by a large margin, Animals is still appreciated very much by the fans, often being declared one of the album's best songs. It is likely that Animals will make rare appearances from time to time in future tours.
