Analysis and Explanation

Space Dementia is a difficult song to perform in general let alone in front of an audience. Regardless, the band have repeatedly pulled out Space Dementia since its debut until the end of The Resistance era. Not performed live often except October 2001 through 2003, its status as a legendary song live kept the song around during the Absolution era, during which it was performed more often than during the Origin of Symmetry era. It was one of the last Origin of Symmetry songs to debut live (alongside Citizen Erased and Megalomania, it was not performed live in 2000, unlike the remainder of the album). Upon its live debut, the band rarely ever performed it, saving it for rare and obscure times. It was not until October 2001 that the band actually gave Space Dementia serious shot, and continued to perform it at nearly every night until the beginning of 2004.

After very few performances in 2005, the band laid Space Dementia to rest until 2008 when it was performed somewhat often until the end of the year, when Space Dementia would only reappear again for the 2011 Reading & Leeds Festivals when Origin of Symmetry was performed in full. Since then, Space Dementia has yet to be performed. Out of all the songs from Origin of Symmetry that were permanently dropped after Reading & Leeds 2011, Space Dementia has the greatest chance of being performed again, though we have yet to see a sign of its inevitable return.
