He has come such a long way. What an amazing man. I also love how he mentions his daughter's name. : ) That made me smile. What I also love is how this sounds like the Craig from before when he was in Blessthefall!
"Leila, you're the only crowd i need" Is the sweetest line of any song, he is singing to his daughter, and you can tell how much he loves her, and it makes my heart melt everytime.
The lyrics "leila your the only crowd I need" made me wanna cry.. Too sweet.. Such an amazing daddy :) and so proud of how far youve come Craig... Always support and love you
Some people just do not understand at all how much it means to us Craig Mabbitt fans see him playing heavy music like this again! It's been wayyyy to long since we have heard heavy music from him!!!!!! I know he always had this heavy music inside of him still, always got to give faith in your idol no matter! He may of stopped a couple of years from heavy music because hes in Escape The Fate now, but that doesn't mean he doesn't like playing heavy music. It's where hes the happiest of all!
exactly the same way I feel man. Hes been my idol since Blessthefall 06 and hes impacted my life so hard. Ronnie Fans dont really get how good craig is at singing and screaming and coming up with catchy choruses. This song proves it! Hes always got that heavy music in him. I will never give up on this guy. Hes such an amazing dude.
This song in general is one of the hardest songs I've heard come from Craig, the others being This War Is Ours, Prepare Your Weapon, The Aftermath, Massacre, Guys Like You Make Us Look Bad, Higinia, Casanova Rodeo, Bad Blood, 10 Miles Wide, and The Flood. But I like his screaming, I just saw him live, he is definitely a harder artist than Escape the Fate restricts him to be which is why I think he branched out with his solo project.
Wow, I went to listen to this thinking I was gonna have a good laugh.... then I heard the Screams, AND pretty catchy chores. I'm Impressed. Hope they give Kevin Thrasher some places to shine in some songs. He's one of the scenes best guitar players
I played a show with The Word Alive and As The Sky Burns a few years in Dayton, Ohio at The Attic. He wasn't there. But I remember whoever was doing lead vox at the time, got smashed in the face by the bass' headstock. Bleeding the rest of the show. Pretty brutal lol
I've seen them both live. They're both amazing! I don't think people are ever going to get over it though, because that's how people are. I wish they would though. Anyway, this song is awesomeeee! Can't wait for more. [:
New album gonna be so hardcore for sure. There's TJ now dude, he came from MIW, and all their songs are full of screams, just epic. I'm sure Craig and ETF will take over the world this year
So glad to see Craig is getting out there again. :) I've listened to his music from the beginning in blessthefall and I love all his work! Can't wait to hear more!! \m/
escape the fate is almost rave rock now, its drifted so far from post-hardcore and it killed me inside lol the genre died and now craig made a song that sounds like the old bless the fall and the old escape the fate got together and poured everything they had into it. this is amazing.
I saw him last night and he kicks ass in Escape the Fate, I really hope that he doesn't end up leaving for this side project, I hope he maintains them both.
This shocked me a lot. Like wow. I think Craig mabbitt has always been amazing, but this is the heaviest i've ever see him do. I have way more respect for him now.
Best Song Ever!!! Craig & Ronnie are Best at what they do the most and thats making fans happy with there music :) i'm huge Escape the Fate fan & Falling in Reverse fan :) & i think we should just let them fight about it & not us, not be choosing sides because in the end everyone wins :)
Now now, We can all like our own kind of music if you don't like Craig wtf are you doing listening to this song. And to be honest Ronnie and Craig are both very good musicians. :)
i agree, just imagine how many people would go and the shows would sell out soo quick, they could become something like the 'big four' but obviously not four. But if they did tour together you'd still get those nobs who can get over things which are in the past and will just shout abuse at the bands and shit like that
Craig is doing an amazing job with this & ETF, I'm starting to love him even more!:) and btw why don't we all forget about the whole 'Craig vs. Ronnie' crap and enjoy this beautiful music? Good for you if you like Ronnie, go listen to FIR! and if you like Craig listen to this and ETF! there's no need to hate on either person, they're both very successful musicians and amazing people. Just sayin' :)
Oh, how I've missed that old Blessthefall sound. :') Craig, I really can't thank you enough for making music like this. His Last Walk was one of the first metal albums I got into. And to hear this five years later... I can't even describe it. Awesome dejavu?
Omfg so much better than new escape the fate. And to whoever said Ronnie only writes pop songs with a few seconds of screaming now, did you even hear ETF's last album? Lol goodbye graceful by falling in reverse has more screaming than that whole album.
person, the "rabbitt" is an alter ego of myself seen within the artwork and that song is about people that hate on each other in general and how that consumes the hated in becoming the hater and trying his hardest to stay strong and not become the enemy.'
On itunes the genre is rock, and the band calls it rock. With the latest album that is, and that album defined them they say. It's not old school rock, but it definitely is rock.I consider Dead Rabbitts as Post Hardcore. So luckily if you don't like amazing songs like "Something' or "World Around Me" you still have Dead Rabbitts :)
But the Escape the Fate album is supposed to go back to the This War Is Ours sound, so hopefully it will be mixed with all hard songs like This War, 10 Miles, and the The Flood.
great song craig keep it up can't wait to hear your album you're such an inspiration to many people, dude pay no mind to the haters fuck them do what you do best never give up on any of your dreams dude never let anyone tell you otherwise
yeh good point. maybe peace amongst the industry is too broadly speaking, but atleast craig is doing his best to stop the hating going on. good luck craig!
i agree BTF with craig was the first time i had a fav band...then the new guy came in and then it was TWA then to here guess im folowing Craig everywhere
He has come such a long way. What an amazing man. I also love how he mentions his daughter's name. : ) That made me smile. What I also love is how this sounds like the Craig from before when he was in Blessthefall!
2012 was so long ago, still a great throwback. Great work guys, still holds up
Aww, I find it so freaking adorable that he mentions his daughter in this song
"Leila, you're the only crowd i need" Is the sweetest line of any song, he is singing to his daughter, and you can tell how much he loves her, and it makes my heart melt everytime.
crazy opening so much energy, catchy chorus with beautiful lyrics, super-fucking-crazy-epic outro
I sob every time at "Leila, you're the only crowd I need." Craig Mabbitt is an A+ dad.
The lyrics "leila your the only crowd I need" made me wanna cry.. Too sweet.. Such an amazing daddy :) and so proud of how far youve come Craig... Always support and love you

I will never give up on this guy. Hes such an amazing dude.
Craig will forever be one of the BEST clean and un-clean vocalist out there.
Awwww "Leila you're the only crowd I need." What a sweet and amazing dad!
"yet she's the only crowd i need
leila your the only crowd i need."
Good Guy Craig loves his baby girl.
His Last Walk was THEE album to get me into this genre. Both Craig Mabbit, and blessthefall will always have a special sentimental spot in my heart
omfg yes yes yes Craig sounds like old Craig when he was with BTF thank you man!!!!!!!!!! I wanna cry ive missed the old Craig!
awww!!!!! i heard "leila your the only crowd i need" Craig you're soooo sweet ^.^ dedicating a line of your song to your daughter
I think if I was still into this kind of music, then this would have been my new favorite song .
Amazing song, this guy will forever be one of my favorite musicians.
This has to be one of the most catchiest choruses i've heard in a long time.
"Leila your the only crowd I need."
Awwwww *W*
This song in general is one of the hardest songs I've heard come from Craig, the others being This War Is Ours, Prepare Your Weapon, The Aftermath, Massacre, Guys Like You Make Us Look Bad, Higinia, Casanova Rodeo, Bad Blood, 10 Miles Wide, and The Flood.

Im feeling this song guys its so amazing...Come on guys lets change the world..lets bring about peace..give our children a better world to grow up in
wow this is really good..finally he has some lyrics that actually mean something.
and the leila reference..omg c:
Craig's new way & style of screaming & vocals is more awesome!
Craig never fails to inspire me
Wow, I went to listen to this thinking I was gonna have a good laugh.... then I heard the Screams, AND pretty catchy chores. I'm Impressed. Hope they give Kevin Thrasher some places to shine in some songs. He's one of the scenes best guitar players
LOVE LOVE LOVE. Craig is one of the best screamers out there.
I played a show with The Word Alive and As The Sky Burns a few years in Dayton, Ohio at The Attic. He wasn't there. But I remember whoever was doing lead vox at the time, got smashed in the face by the bass' headstock. Bleeding the rest of the show. Pretty brutal lol
I like how Craig admits he made mistakes and and that he is just like the enemy
I agree totally. If they got over their differences and did a song together, it'd be one of the greatest songs ever written. Period.
it's nice having Craig bring back his screams. Hopefully he'll have more of them in the new ETF album
this is honestly better than most of what etf has made in a while. im actually addicted to a song 0_o
I dig the new style Craig! Screams are a lot more stronger than what they were. Gnarly stuff bru.
2:55 he says "Leila your the only crowd i need" Aww
I've seen them both live. They're both amazing! I don't think people are ever going to get over it though, because that's how people are. I wish they would though. Anyway, this song is awesomeeee! Can't wait for more. [:
THANK YOU. It's awesome when people on youtube make intelligent comments. It should happen more often.
New album gonna be so hardcore for sure. There's TJ now dude, he came from MIW, and all their songs are full of screams, just epic. I'm sure Craig and ETF will take over the world this year
So glad to see Craig is getting out there again. :) I've listened to his music from the beginning in blessthefall and I love all his work! Can't wait to hear more!! \m/
I love this so much!! Craig, is amazing!
this has a dillinger escape plan feel in the beginning of it... awesome. love craig. :)
Craig, you already know how awesome you are, and we need to meet 👆 at Download Fest some day.
He just explained everything in this song. Hope you guys realize now how talented Craig is. I love you the most dude, you're my hero !
''Leila your the only crowd I need'' so cute♥
holy shit....i didnt think craig would do heavy music again....this is amazing
Love the song ~ Love the message ♥
I didn't really get into the newer ETF stuff but I'm loving this!! :)
I can't wait for when Leila grows up a bit more and listens to this, she'll fully understand how much he daddy loves her.
i bet this song is awesome live! really hope that they play shows!
Really awesome song, good job Dead Rabbitts!
Kinda reminds me of the early days of Blessthefall. I love it!
escape the fate is almost rave rock now, its drifted so far from post-hardcore and it killed me inside lol the genre died and now craig made a song that sounds like the old bless the fall and the old escape the fate got together and poured everything they had into it. this is amazing.
Wow! He does something that doesn't suck!?? Haha. Besides the old blessthefall, or course.. I actually like this.
Ah, the Craig I first heard in Blessthefall :) Keep writing songs.
Craig is amazing. Ronnie is amazing. Look at both, please... we just don't need to hate no one. Just enjoy the music.
I saw him last night and he kicks ass in Escape the Fate, I really hope that he doesn't end up leaving for this side project, I hope he maintains them both.
beginning always gets me lol i keep thinking its "get out of my head"
I think I like this better than ETF
This is by far his best stuff in a while.
*Zeomonstar* dam straight son this song is beast and so is Craig! XD
wow that is a great band name then. thanks for clearing that up!
LOVE IT! goodness, I can barely type this message from excitement
yeah those were great days i'm going to die when the amount of plays run out on spotify for that album ahah
Totally awesome!!!!!!
This shocked me a lot. Like wow. I think Craig mabbitt has always been amazing, but this is the heaviest i've ever see him do. I have way more respect for him now.
Best Song Ever!!! Craig & Ronnie are Best at what they do the most and thats making fans happy with there music :) i'm huge Escape the Fate fan & Falling in Reverse fan :) & i think we should just let them fight about it & not us, not be choosing sides because in the end everyone wins :)
Clean vocals= GORGEOUS.
The real Craig is back :) happy birthday to a wonderful artist who has made a great comeback. Keep it coming Craig. We all believe in you!!
WOW this is an awesome direction for craig mabbits vocals to go!
Now now, We can all like our own kind of music if you don't like Craig wtf are you doing listening to this song. And to be honest Ronnie and Craig are both very good musicians. :)
This song is great and his screams are amazing!
I love the lyrics. I can't wait for the whole EP to be released :)
i agree, just imagine how many people would go and the shows would sell out soo quick, they could become something like the 'big four' but obviously not four. But if they did tour together you'd still get those nobs who can get over things which are in the past and will just shout abuse at the bands and shit like that

happy birthday, you're awesome!!! and i love this song
Oh, how I've missed that old Blessthefall sound. :') Craig, I really can't thank you enough for making music like this. His Last Walk was one of the first metal albums I got into. And to hear this five years later... I can't even describe it. Awesome dejavu?
Holy shit :O Craig has a kick ass scream xD. Respect!
Omfg so much better than new escape the fate. And to whoever said Ronnie only writes pop songs with a few seconds of screaming now, did you even hear ETF's last album? Lol goodbye graceful by falling in reverse has more screaming than that whole album.
It's SO cute that Leila is mentioned ^^
I love love love it! best song I've heard. the message it carries is just beautiful, and the way of performing as well :D GO CRAIG AND DEAD RABBITTS
person, the "rabbitt" is an alter ego of myself seen within the artwork and that song is about people that hate on each other in general and how that consumes the hated in becoming the hater and trying his hardest to stay strong and not become the enemy.'
Its a side project not a solo-project, he has his own band:
- Craig/vocals
- Kevin Trasher / Guitar
- TJ Bell / Bass
- Brian O'dowd / Drums
On itunes the genre is rock, and the band calls it rock. With the latest album that is, and that album defined them they say. It's not old school rock, but it definitely is rock.I consider Dead Rabbitts as Post Hardcore. So luckily if you don't like amazing songs like "Something' or "World Around Me" you still have Dead Rabbitts :)
But the Escape the Fate album is supposed to go back to the This War Is Ours sound, so hopefully it will be mixed with all hard songs like This War, 10 Miles, and the The Flood.
The part about Leila is so awesome.
I love this *-* Craig is a Beast!
Awesome I love it!!!
When I saw him with BTF back in 08 he was amazing.
this is fricken amazing this and edge of reality dude bring this into escape the fate and it will be friggen legends haha
i love how it mentions Leila (his daughter) so cute :)
i loved it,waiting for more songs master ;;]
Great song :) ♥
Thank you!!!! I'm beyond over this Ronnie/Craig debate...Its been years, fucking drop it

you're such an inspiration to many people, dude pay no mind to the haters fuck them
do what you do best never give up on any of your dreams dude

this needs to be on iTunes im sick of not being able to listen to it without wifi
yeh good point. maybe peace amongst the industry is too broadly speaking, but atleast craig is doing his best to stop the hating going on. good luck craig!
i hope it turns into a band tho lol this shits mad sick!! :D
I was like it's Ok till 0:22 then it's like HOLY SHIT THIS IS AWESOME!!!!!!!!
i agree BTF with craig was the first time i had a fav band...then the new guy came in and then it was TWA then to here guess im folowing Craig everywhere
thank god thought my favorite frontman had gone off the deep end. ETF is dead he needs to focus more on this. real music from the right place.
