Analysis and Explanation

Though a very rare song live today, Thoughts of a Dying Atheist was performed rather often on the Absolution tour. 2003 in particular featured Thoughts of a Dying Atheist in the vast majority of setlists, only skipping promotional dates and no full gigs. Several pro-shots from 2003 exist as a result. Apart from the first gig of the year, Thoughts of a Dying Atheist was played at every non-promotional concert in January and February 2004, though it was dropped from setlists for March 2004.

Though reappearing for around ten gigs on the North American tour, the song was again dropped after a few dates in May. Apart from a single performance in October, it wouldn't be until November that the song would fully return to setlists, appearing at every non-festival until the end of the year. Apart from Big Day Out Festival, Thoughts of a Dying Atheist was never performed at a festival. Once again the song returned in 2005, though it was skipped at five out of the first six gigs of the year (none of these gigs were recorded, though, so there is not much of a loss). The song continued to be performed at every gig on the American tour before it was performed for it was performed for the last time at the end of the tour.

Thoughts of a Dying Atheist has not been performed live since the Absolution tour, with no sign of the song returning anytime soon. The band's refusal to play it live at festivals may be holding this song back from returning.
