Possibly to date the best band I've seen live. When you hear a track like this. First thing you do is do a search on if they're touring. Not many bands I can think of that have the same impact.
Still remember them playing after Cog at Melbourne BDO, maybe 2007. Cog were and are still about the most magical live band you could ever see and were absolutely awesome. I stuck around to see Shihad afterwards being a casual fan and never seeing them before, and somehow they topped Cog with the energy. Blew everyone away, I was surprised how amazing they were.
Please keep going with the ideas that will help people, music is better when it means something about freedom, I will never stop hearing the messages on this album, welcome and thank you. So much, so much.
"One day everything will be well, that is our hope. Everything's fine today, that is our illusion. " i thought this quote would fit well with this song
The strangest thing is once you do wake up...... Nothing's changed!!!! That's because you have to make requests... Dream the dream and then unfold it!!!! A lot of awake people still don't even know they have "Woken Up"!
that chorus is slammin! love it!! that part with the tree and the dude with the axe right at the end was a pretty powerful message imo.. to me, the song is about the world being raped of resources, corporate greed, privacy (or lack of it) and every joe-average wage slave (sleepwalkers. or meat for the grinder as i like to call em. i know i'm one..).
Shihad started out as a thrash metal band, they've got roots in industrial rock/industrial metal, especially with their huge Killing Joke influences, and Jaz Coleman helping produce the album. Go listen to a recent Killing Joke album like Absolute Dissent and you'll hear it.
this song makes me feel like i stuck my p*nis into a sansamp pedal that was connected to live power, what a shock of a song! love this band sooo much... frothing to see these guys live...
I hear what you say about the musicality, but hey! they already did that melodic shit, THIS IS ANARCHY! and, as an anarchist, I am very happy for my brothers. Very Proud NOW!
Best band to come out of New Zealand 🇳🇿 no question
who needs american bands when here in New Zealand we got Shihad
and villainy
and devilskin
Who's gonna be the next band? We'll find out
except there sound was played to death by americans 25 odd years ago
Stone Cold XV. Heard of dead favours? They have only 1 song right now I think but it's really good, they seem quite promising
Legend says that dog is still running on that beach 🐕

Brilliant. A return to the roots of Shihad at their hard hitting finest. Looking forward to the album!
The opinionated atheists
This is one of the most epic guitar riffs of last years
As a kiwi living abroad, this reminds me how lucky I am to be apart of the best country on the planet.
I agree with you
@S Yea mate. It's all going down the tubes. Here in OZ, not to flash.

It's like the excitement in the old album when I heard potato couch, I was like, "wow, they almost are describing the panopticon...."
Holy shit, nine years ago. Shit, time passed that quickly?
Great video. This song was produced by the lead singer of Killing Joke.
Straight up 21st-century punk-rock.
A hard wake-up punch in the face.
Brutally sweet.
This video is just so fucking unreal. Suits the song amazingly well. Bravo Shihad
"One day everything will be well, that is our hope. Everything's fine today, that is our illusion. " i thought this quote would fit well with this song
Shihad grew some balls...again. well done fellas

Marc Flanagan Mr negative please stop commenting on SHIHAD. They are the best. The end.
This song rocks. Good to see the boys back on top form.
I was hanging on waiting for the first snare drum... and when it hit I laughed like a little boy. Rocking song!

BUYING. THIS. ALBUM. NOW! Omg. Massive.
that chorus is slammin! love it!! that part with the tree and the dude with the axe right at the end was a pretty powerful message imo.. to me, the song is about the world being raped of resources, corporate greed, privacy (or lack of it) and every joe-average wage slave (sleepwalkers. or meat for the grinder as i like to call em. i know i'm one..).
One of the best music videos I've seen in a while. Well done guys!

I.was wondering if the guy..with the axe is a reference to the guy who cut down the tree on one tree hill
Thanks NZ on air. Thanks L&P. Thanks Bono. Now be quiet.
NZ Music = Win!
Damn, since when was NZ rock so heavy? Must be that Doom Metal-esque riff.
Shihad started out as a thrash metal band, they've got roots in industrial rock/industrial metal, especially with their huge Killing Joke influences, and Jaz Coleman helping produce the album. Go listen to a recent Killing Joke album like Absolute Dissent and you'll hear it.
Go Kiwis !!
Love love love this track..I hope the Shihad guys are supporting the banning of thegreyhound racing industry................
