Mike Capraro yes I saw them a few days ago in tiny bar with about 20 people in it and they blew the roof off that bitch. It one one of the best shows I've been to
This band is one of the best bands in music as far as live sound is concerned. You can really tell when Sean sings his lyrics, he's really feeling the raw emotion of them which makes them sound so damn good. Two of the best bands I know at sounding just as good, if not better live than they do even in the studio recordings are: Smile Empty Soul & Breaking Benjamin.
19 years later and This song connects with the 30 yr old combat weathered, blue collar beaten guy just as much as the alcohol dependant coke railing pill poping kid that heard it the first time.... Long live great music 🤘🏼
I won't admit this band is the best, but they are pretty damn good. My favorite bands are All that Remains, Tantric, and Apocalyptica. Look them up if you like this band.
Just saw and met them yesterday. Awesome band and the guy in it seem pretty cool. They all signed their CD for me. I wish I would of found them earlier.
i love Smile empty soul...it bothers that this was they're only big hit. Other songs such as "silouhettes", "the hit", "finding myself", "this is war", "with this knife", and "here's to another" deserved to be listened to and deserve more radio play. I think they're extremely underrated because most people know them for only this song...i love them tho, and can't wait to see them live one day.....
This group is amazingly talented. I learned about them by bumping into them at a hotel several years back drinking jaiger. Not only are they talented but all are very friendly. Especially th e singer they call baby
i remember back in middle school, some kid came in with like 800 coppies of this song, (single cd's) and just gave them away. Brings back some memories
Had a really strange dream last night were I was playing this song with these guy's at a gig here where I live. I don't even sing or play the guitar. lol
@AnAverageSkeptic yeah i didnt realize how many songs i knew by em until i saw them. ive always liked this song and it was pretty cool finding out they sang it by seeing them play it haha.
yea i feel the same way.I havent even thought about them in a while until I seen a poster at a venue my band played cuz there goin to be there. I couldnt belive they only have 13k friends
this song is the shit. i remember when i was a methamphetimine tweaker. this song spoke to me so much. now that im a drunk and can barely make it out the house and my GF left me, it still makes sense. "do it just to feel alive"
@neurochris Yea it's on youtube. They have a few that are done acoustic. It shows off his voice a lot better. The acoustic ones don't have him screaming the chorus, he sort of sings it.
yeah, i didnt know who these guys were when i saw them on friday opening up for buckcherry. before the show they were skating around in the parking lot on longboards. i cant say i liked all their music but they sure are cool people.
Actually they were really good live when I saw them with Puddle of Mudd in Ybor, Florida. I wouldn't say this is there best performance but the live show I saw was the shit.
@alapal789 when I 'm on a downer I find that certain songs do more for me to pull me out of a hole than any words that people have to say.....this is one of those songs. 'Finding myself' by Smile Empty Soul from the punisher soundtrack is another.
They don't get more radio play because they write music of subject matter that is not intended for radio play. I agree though Great band I have all of their cd's
this band is so under-rated.
AGREED! To this day i play their music everyday!
I could relate to these lyrics for decades. Thank God those days are over LOL.
Oh wow haven't heard this since...awesome jam!
***** Ya this is a decent live version no doubt. Love this tune.
+CosmikDebrisFZ I can relate now.
The days never end :D
I still can
I love this version more than the album version because he really digs down for his screams. His singing/screaming is way more aggressive, love it
I think that may be because of the backup singer haha :)
One of those rare bands that sound just like the album when playing live.
Mike Capraro yes I saw them a few days ago in tiny bar with about 20 people in it and they blew the roof off that bitch. It one one of the best shows I've been to
Guitar doesn't. Distorted intro is really missing the rhythm track when he goes up to the octaves. Still sounds great though, I love this song.
@@nersesgarabed781 Yeah thought the same thing but yeah i love this band
Ye cause 2 guitar on album @@nersesgarabed781
what happened to the good rock/alternative bands of the late 90's and early 2000's like this one
Bullshit literally took over. Take me back to this comment at least.
@@Thestockxj96The mid-2000’s happened, and *ruined everything…* 🥺😣
Bearded hipsters took over the 2010s and it’s been fucked ever since

This is totally awesome. I love this song. Sounds good live.
Can't believe this masterpiece was 20 years ago ... :( 2023 !!!!
these guys were kick ass live. Saw them at Locobazooka. Seriously, love them.
takes me back to highschool when i liked them and was depressed and suicidal. now they sound different to me now that i am fulfilled and happy.
Yeah.That's pretty awesome dude. This band gets me through the day when I'm feelin' pained and emotionally hurt and sad and stuff like that.
one of the greatest, but most underrated bands of our time...
this band is good and a great song this is at that..indeed one of the best
Thank god I don’t got to live life with a needle in my arm 24/7 anymore
Speak for yourself :/ hopefully ill be there someday
@@DowntownTasty stop felling sorry for yourself and get help brother
Glad to hear your better
@@DowntownTasty hey man i hope you got clean.

Really good song. I love the end, though. ;) Drummer's just sittin' in the back, letting his friends enjoy that, just chillin'.
Most Underrated Band Ever even though they are so awesome.

These guys are the Greatest Ever!!!! & they rock live!.... I know that Sean is using a Schecter, but what kind of Schecter is it?? CAN ANYONE TELL ME?
Hellraiser
I fuckin' love this song; they are great musicians.
This was a perfect anthem in my drug addiction youth 20 yrs ago

Goddamn that bassist sounds sick with those back-up vocals.

Woah man, you are like the coolest person ever.
I get high, but I hate people who think they're cool for doing it.
yea i feel the same way.I havent even thought about them in a while until I seen a poster at a venue my band played cuz there goin to be there. I couldnt belive they only have 13k friends
GOD this song is great
this song is the shit. i remember when i was a methamphetimine tweaker. this song spoke to me so much. now that im a drunk and can barely make it out the house and my GF left me, it still makes sense. "do it just to feel alive"

I think it sounds pretty good. I remember the first time I saw the vid.
This is definitely a great song in terms of melody and sound n' all that.
Actually they were really good live when I saw them with Puddle of Mudd in Ybor, Florida. I wouldn't say this is there best performance but the live show I saw was the shit.
there aint many bands like this these days (sigh)...

'Finding myself' by Smile Empty Soul from the punisher soundtrack is another.
They don't get more radio play because they write music of subject matter that is not intended for radio play. I agree though Great band I have all of their cd's
Awesome song!
I love the distorsion !!!
Smile Empty Fucking Soul, Baby!
I love this band.
