Left behind
You chose to leave
Now it looks like you’re leaving your family
There’s a cavern in your ribs
Where your heart used to be
I’ve been picking up what’s left of you
Connecting your pieces to my memories
Hoping they would ignite some sentiment
But they won’t inspire sympathy
The hollow point may have ripped you apart
You disregard the damage you’d impart
Rest in peace to our ancestry
That you maimed and left scarred
My judgement is clouded by the blood we share
We built our truth on top of all these lies
I still see the good in life
It’s not the end, although you see the light
I’ll see you on the other side
Maybe one day you’ll care
But it’s not my cross to bear
I didn’t skip a beat
When I heard the news that you
You couldn’t make it to your feet
All I have is apathy
Just another day of not knowing what to believe
Another tale another story
A lifetime of perjury
I wish I had the words to say I love you.
I’m not sure I understand what those mean when I’m thinking of you
I have no words for you
When I needed you, you wouldn’t even hear it
You made your choices
You’ll live with them even if we’re gone
It’s impossible to find what’s real in all these fables
Unable to see through the resentment you’ve enabled
The hurt that you inflicted on yourself
Won’t amount to the pain of everyone else
I always wanted things to be different
Although you see the light
I’ll see you on the other side
We built our truth on top of all these lies
I still see the good in life
It’s not the end, although you see the light
I’ll see you on the other side
Death Below - March 24th
That's a year ago today lol
@@NeilMerkling Another year again. IoI
When this song came out I looked at my best friend and said “wow that’s kinda dark for ABR” and 6 months later I lost my step father to suicide and this song hit harder than anything else I’ve ever heard. Their music has helped me through it all. This one hits deep and true every time I play it. Check on your friends. Love you all
Well said, mate.
I know in some way my mom took her own life years ago too your not alone
ABR + Jesse = Perfection Formula
They are the fine wine of the metalcore community. They keep getting better with age. Absolutely PUMPED for the album
HELL YEAH!
lol. you win the joke of the year award.
@@bradcallahan3546 spotted the elitist
The raw emotion in this video is insane... but I also can't help but imagine how tough it would be pretending to be asleep while Jake screams inches from my face 😂
lol i couldnt help but cracking up every time he was like beatin on the guy and fake screaming into his face
Plot twist, its just some random dude in a coma
@@jameshanley3947 pro move. That would get it down in a single take.
Man I was thinking the same 😂😂😂
That was my first thought! XD
This is insane! These 2 vocalists fit so perfectly together.
Now just add Howard Jones with them all 3 I’m sure can harmonize
2+1 Dustin
are there 2 vocalists? :o
@@kbuss10 of corse. its the singer from killiswitch engage. When has august burns red ever used clean vocals this good from one of their own band members
@@thedudecoffeeblogger2534 literally if Howard Jones was in a song with these 2 I could actually die happy bc in that moment my life would be complete!!
It’s insane how consistent ABR can drop bangers throughout the years. Guitar never disappoints
They truly care about their craft as well as their fan base. And then there's Architects... Haha.
@@WhereOceansMeeet sad but true
@@WhereOceansMeeet dont forget PWD lol.
@@yannickcharron3193 PWD, Architects, For The Fallen Dreams, Hundredth and many more
imo, the most consistent bands throughout the years and love their fanbase: August Burns Red, Counterparts, Invent Animate.
Matt Greiner....the deity of drums!!!
Didn't realize ABR joined Sharptone. Damn, at this rate Sharptone's just on a quest to get every 2000s metalcore band.
yeah wtf sharptone easily has the best metal lineup now its crazy
All they now is As I Lay Dying Killswitch Engage All That Remains Unearth Underoath
@@Mikezinj They were powerful enough to resurrect Bleeding Through from the dead. Maybe one day they can do the same for I Killed The Prom Queen or Poison The Well...
@@northwindkey or Feed Her To The Sharks or Buried In Verona \,,/
That’s because Shawn Keith is a beast.
August Burns Red never disappoints! 😳🤘
They’re so bad and I mean the good kind of bad.
Never at all!
I really respect them. Constellations is still on of my favorite albums of all-time. They're never bad, but, I do think they've got to the point long ago, where all their shit sounds the same. It's boring now. Just my 2 cents. Brilliant musicians though.
Metalcore is more alive than ever
Arguably one of the most hard working and consistent bands in the scene for at least the last 15 years.
Heard this song when it first came out… lost it for 2 YEARS! Finally found it again!
This is why ABR is my favorite band of all time. They never disappoint and are the most consistent metalcore band of all time. God bless these gentlemen!
Yessss
Dude are funnier on video 😊 these guys will be forever be amazing people and I love them ❤
Love Jesse! Dude throws downs on anything.
My dad has been fighting cancer for two months, and we found out he has about two weeks left today. This song hit on such a different emotional level for me. Thank you ABR
I am so terribly sorry to hear that 😔
Stay strong Kael. Life will darken for a while, but keep on pushing through.
Even if something heavily knocks you down, get back up and continue your true meaning. even if you lose somebody you lose, that will NOT stop you from continuing.
Is it just me or is Jesse's voice STILL improving?! Damn!
Pumped as hell of the new ABR album and I can't wait to hear something new from KSE!!!!
Jesse continues to evolve and I can’t wait until the new KSE releases
Never thought Jesse would sound so perfect with ABR like that. Damn, kinda makes me wish they had a permanent clean singer honestly. Anyway, new ABR is always welcome and appreciated!!
Jake could be that clean singer ! His cleans on the Chop Suey cover are really good (it was so good indeed, i thought this was a feature because i couldn't understand how he did not used them before !)
Really want to hear him incorporate some clean touches in ABR's
I disagree. What makes the cleans good is the fact ABR rarely uses them. Put them on every song and they lose their impact.
Lol... we don't need more bands with horrific clean singing
@@birthdaybatter815 It would, but it would also add a new dynamic and flavour to the band. They have a formula, but adding cleans would definetly help freshen it up a bit.
sounds amazing yes, but what sets ABR apart and one of the biggest reasons i love them is that the DON't do frequent clean vocals. They don't soften with time, that's part of what makes them so damn good!
This video almost summarizes what I just went through with my dad just passing from cancer on Sept 27th. Most painful experience I've ever had to bare. I know in my heart without doubt that he's in heavenly places. He served the Lord with all of his heart. There's just always so much left unsaid when death comes knocking at the door. The gray space in between hits heavy. So forgive people while you still have a chance to and love them while they're still breathing on this planet. Love you ABR thanks for sharing your talents and your stories with us yet again. Can't wait to hear more! ps: 🎸 JB you're my hero lol 🤘
I am so sorry to hear that. I'll pray for you and your family.
Happened to my dad last 7th Sept 😭
I’m going to be slightly open, these sorts of things made me stray away from faith. I don’t want to hear “it’s his time”, “god wanted him for something greater”…bullshit. Tough “just because I said so” pill to swallow for me. I’m glad you’re feeling well though, friend.
My mom passed away in 2017 from cancer. I was really close to her over the years. It's rough but I know she's always watching over me just like your dad is watching over you.
@@Scottyeightyfive deeply sorry for your loss
This is why I fucking love metal and why I will die a metal head. The artistic expression is like no other genre of music.
Same exact reason why I love metal, and have such disdain for pop music (it’s the exact opposite: uncreative, hollow messaging, and simple repetitive manufactured trash)
Dude facts.
The Bass in every track on Death Bellow is insane bruh!!
Dustin be like "fuck it man it's my time to shine!"
This shit hit me like a truck. An amazing song with amazing lyrics. My mom passed away on 7/9/20 and then my Grandmother on 2/19/21. I never resolved our issues before they died and they died thinking I hated them and now I've got to live with that regret for the rest of my life. It's important to make things right before our loved ones die.
I never knew I needed a Jesse chorus in an ABR song till now.
The sheer anger and pain in the vocals in the performance. Gosh damn... I cried. Maybe Im going through a lot. This song hit me hard. Love it.
Dustin's bass tone/playing almost make the bass a different instrument. By far the best mix I've heard in a while!
Jesse and ABR? Hell YES. What a great voice match up!
GD! ABR is, was, and always be the kings of Metalcore! Been listening to these guys since 2006, they have Never wavered in their consistently!
FIFAP was trash
@@johnparker4484 Those are fighting words! Lol. I feel its their best album - so very different from all the cookie cutter metalcore
@John Parker I personally have it as my least favorite album overall of theirs (although I still love it) but in my opinion their best track ever resides on that album in Martyr 🤷
These guys pour all of their hearts in the music they create
Probably my favorite album announcement track I've ever heard from this band.
The speed is relentless, the vocals seem particularly vicious, and Jesse has a PERFECT feature.
That, and the video is absolutely devastating. The ending in particular is sobering.
I do have to say though..
Without Jesse's feature, this would be a bit too expected. The best part of their last two albums (in particular) was how they tried new things and didn't just try to make it Messengers 2.0.
my father died two weeks ago for us everything is a world collapsed but the song gave me the strength to continue I saw argust burns red live in Leipzig greetings from Germany 🤘
“Although you see the light, I’ll see you on the other side.”
This song is incredible. Love it!!
All these years and still creating masterpieces!
My friend died today, an hour ago. She was at the hospital since last month.
I've just some words to say:
Although you see the light
I'll see you on the other side, Anne.
Absolutely insane. The collaboration we never knew we needed.
That chorus man
My dad is dying of cancer, this hit me so hard. Two of my favorite bands of all time, thank you 🖤🤘🏻
Praying for you and your family. My mom got hit with cancer, it was a tough battle.
It’s a rough ride through chemo, radiation, etc. just hoping for it to work. My family was hit when my father was diagnosed. Cherish every moment and the when they say that laughter is the best medicine, it’s true. It can make a sour moment in just a bit sweeter. This band got me through so many emotions when my dad passed. Praying for you, your family, and your father.
Lost my ma, pops, and granddad to cancer all by the time I was thirteen and watched all the horrors that come with the disease but the gentleman above me is absolutely correct that laughter is one of the best tools to utilize in keeping your shit together. Surround yourself with decent folks who have good senses of humor and listen to heavy fcking metal and you'll be ok. Best wishes to you and your pops.
Much love sir I'm so sorry for what you must be going thru
ABR never disappoints, and even better with Jesse singing along!!!
I can't even put into words how amazing this song is. It's got deathcore vibes mixed with Messengers and R&R while also being extremely progressive. You guys did an amazing job with maturing your sound while staying true to the style that everyone knows as August Burns Red.
which part is "extremely progressive"?
The chorus is a progressive part, but I meant "progressive" in the sense that they are doing new things and continuing to grow as a band. I love pretty much all of their stuff, but this is the most solid I've heard from them when it comes to how it's written, in my opinion.
@@danielsisk2391 Oh gotcha. Good point!
I probably could've worded it a little differently. I just love how smooth each part of the song transitions into the next part. I'm a guitar player myself, so I pay a lot of attention to how things are written and how well everything flows.
ABR is what bands should look to when evolving and refining their sound. So many bands go to complete shit *cough* Parkway Drive *cough* when they attempt it and either sell out or completely neuter the sound that made them famous in the first place.
The beard and the voice of this monsters is pure testosterone!
One of these rare moments where we witness JB with shoes on.
This was incredible. ABR is by far ahead of the game in the metalcore scene. Great music, great lyrics and tons of passion!
Jesse really elevated this song. Great collab!
Goosebumps when Jesse comes in. Been a fan of ABR and KSE for almost 20 years so this is amazing. Powerful video too.
This makes me wanna go to McDonald's, Order a happy meal, and eat the toy.
Same tho
Was actually eating a quarter pounder meal listening to this 😆
Did you?
Lmao thanks for the laugh
サビのギターメロと疾走感もありつつエモーショナルな感じ、フィーチャリングしたJesse Leachとのツインボーカルがめちゃくちゃマッチして良すぎる
These guys are number one on my Spotify every year by miles. How do they keep putting out such quality work. Idaho is waiting guys!
Yes! First song to hear from them in 2023! And the rest of the album death Below doesn't disappoint at all. The cleansing is one of my favorites and the abyss
About 3 weeks or so ago my *DaD* went into the hospital because he wasn't feeling well.
Turns out he had a rare form of leukemia.
They gave him two years to live.
Over the course of the next 24 hours it went from two years to live to six months to two weeks and then he finally passed about two days later.
Watching someone go from a completely healthy man to being bed ridden and deteriorating away like he did is something no one should ever have to go through.
I stand here writing this with tears in my eyes for so many reasons.
You *aLL* captured so much in the span of 05:22.
To that I *THaNK You* for not only the wonderful well written music to listen to while going through everything but as well as *aLL of the eMoTioNS* that loved ones go through whether it be a *FaTHeR and a SoN* or whatever someone's going through and knowing that *we're not aLoNe* in these situations.
*Amazing job aBR* 👏🏻
Can't wait to see what's up next from you aLL
🤘😈
🎸
I love it when music this hard makes you tear up. 😢
Watching the music video brought this song to life. It was way heavier and emotional than just listening to the song. Can’t wait for more off this album #DeathBelow
I'm trying to recover from a concussion but this album is making it hard.
Beautiful. Love the progressive song structure. Musicianship and lyrics are phenomenal as usual. The mix is fantastic as well. Can't wait for the album!
Matt is insane with his drumming 😎
ABR is one of the few bands I've heard recently that sound like they used to sound 10 years ago but somehow manage to make new music in their iconic style yet different from their old stuff. That fact alone is noteworthy. Nothing wrong with evolving out of one's old style and completely crushing the first impressions in a fans' heart 😅, but it's really impressive to stay this consistent
jesse absolutely fits this band for both musicaly and mentally. great song
This album is gonna be a banger. I can hear them progress to make a more modern version of what ABR is and it works out like a fine wine. MORE PLEASE
I love how Jesse Leach has been doing features these past two years.
I watched this before I went to bed. Now I need to watch something to lower my blood pressure 🤘🤘
ABR 🤘🏽 My favorite band for years
I lost my father last September and have been searching for the words to express my feelings. More so than any song I’ve ever heard or watched this is it. Thank you for reminding me I’m not alone.
I just wanna take a second to appreciate how hard it must have been for Stan McDermott to hold still and not react while Jake was pounding on his chest and screaming in his face. Respect.
I'm honored and humbled by this comment. Thanks very much!
ABR's music continues to age like fine wine. Jesse's cleans in this song are a match made in heaven. These guys are reinventing the genre. Can't wait for the new album - Metal forever!! \m/ \m/
Well said. Yes, fine wine 🍷
The perfect song doesn't exi-
After losing both of my parents (day apart from each other) the beginning of the year. This hits hard. Awesome Job ABR❤🔥🔥🔥
THE KINGS ARE BACK!!
This song hit me so hard!
My dad passed away from alcoholism ... And as an alcoholic myself this song hits home.... there's so much loneliness in this vicious cycle... Please.. don't fall in addictions
I’m a recovering alcoholic myself, 10 years without a drink. You are correct that it is awful and very lonely. I know this post is old, but I hope you have kicked the habit and started to enjoy life again man.
My two favorite singers of all time 🥹
Matt is just amazing hearing him playing the drums 🤘🏻🙌🏻
i love them all but i want to give matt greiner a hug so bad, he's such a legend
Awesome as always! I feel the R&R vibes, they sound harder this time around I love it! Jesse's part fits like a glove. Can't wait to hear the album, you guys are music gods.
I'd get myself hospitalized if I was guaranteed to have an ABR concert in my hospital room
Another heavy banger from ABR can't wait for the album
ABR was my shit back in the Thrill Seeker/Messengers/Constellations days. Havent listened to them in years. This shit popped up on one of my Pandora stations recently. Good to see them still killing it. This is some good shit.
This song came out at the perfect point in my life. I've been dealing with almost exactly what the lyrics are talking about and it truly hits so hard, just phenomenal and emotional. Thank you ABR for this incredible piece 🤘.
How these guys are so good and so consistently amazing through the years is a feat in itself.
This song is gonna slap harder than Will Smith
It's pretty good.
Get August Burns Red out your mouth!!!
Yes!
😡😅
Can't wait for the new song, I've been a fan since the beginning..
Linkin Park slaps harder than will Smith lol but I agree
Hahaha.
Pretty low bar
Dude, JB has been rocking that same hair cut since day 1. Kudos to him for keeping it O.G..
They are now signed with sharp tone records
Is it just me or does Matt Grenier and jb Brubaker just DON'T fuckin age like at all... VAMPIRES both of them I remember seeing these guys In like 2007 and I swear them 2 look EXACTLY like the did back then
Maluco que orgulho dessa banda ♥️♥️♥️🔥 não tem como, são os melhores !
August burns red é foda mano, achei massa demais a participação do jess
Ohhh nós br aí só força
Música forte viu🤘🤘🤘🤘
man, this has easily become my new fave abr song, i was hooked on composure and meddler, but damn, this is simply too good
¡Qué video!
ABR, haciéndolo como ellos saben ❤️ Gran colaboración!
@Roberto Escamilla Uff, estaría bastante cool 🤘🏼
I’m not surprised the last chorus is the most played part. Shit is so hype it’s unreal
Massive Rescue & Restore vibes, and I'm all for it!! What a single this is 🔥
nice collab - it was a pleasure to see ABR and KE open for Hatebreed at Toad's in New Haven - been fans of both NorthEast bands ever since. RIP RED
ABR hitting way to close to home. This is literally my relationship with my mother. "I didn’t skip a beat when I heard the news that you couldn’t make it to your feet. All I have is apathy, just another day of not knowing what to believe. Another tale, another story;
A lifetime of perjury. I wish I had the words to say I love you. I’m not sure I understand what those mean when I’m thinking of you."
I always wanted things to be different 😢
That's intense brother. Thanks for sharing.
Tears during the chorus... Such an amazing song
I cannot express how happy this makes me, I never in my
Life would think Jesse leach would do guest vocals for ABR . Not because they don’t fit together ( they obviously do!!) but because such a combination of ABR and KSE ( Jesse leach) just blows my mind cuz of the magnitude of epic ness it would be!!!! I have witnessed something incredibly great! Thank you ABR for making incredible music that inspires, heals, uplifts , and stokes us the f**k out !!!
a lot of people forget about the anger that comes along with the sadness and guilt when someone you love passes. Anger at them of a sort for dying. An anger at the people around you for carrying on with their lives unabated. But mostly an anger at world for being such a cold and painful place. I have only known of one other band to have presented it so well: Adestria with More than you Know
This track is awesome! Perfect blend of heavy and beautifully soft and melodic. Drumming is sick, guitars sound freaking amazing as well. Jesse adds such a great element to this track with his clean vocals. I’m so pleasantly surprised this track. I absolutely love it.
This is pretty much spot on what I felt when i was 17 and watched my dead Dad after a suicide I barely recognized after the train hitting him. But I'll see him on the other side, without the pain he had in life.
it's beautiful what you hear, to have these two voices in one song is gold!
My judgment is clouded by the blood we share “. What a verse
Love the cleans ! ABR really manage to make technical songs fun !
Eesh. You perfectly expressed my dad as well as my feelings and thoughts toward him in this song. And now I'm crying.
Love you guys, song came when I needed it most, and Jesse is a lifesaver for me as well so seeing you both on this was amazing. Keep it up guys, love it absolutely
Matt Greiner never disappoints
the GOAT. idc what anyone says. he’s drumming is ALWAYS on another level.
I lost my father back in 2008 and this song speaks to me in so many levels. Thank you ABR. You have given me yet another song to hold near and dear to my heart.
The lyrics are deep but I relate to it on every single line. Thanks for this ABR.
my all time favorite band abr since 2004
