The era before Luke Holland was on drums, Telle had long ass hair and they had a dude named Dusty on keyboard. Feels weird though. 2012 is what got me into these guys. Shame they'll mostly likely be moving away from this stuff and we might never hear this again. I wish they still played Battle Royale and The Wretched live though. But they've gotten way more popular now and I have to say there doing better then ever.
But I agree on what you mean, the old TWA was legendary but the new TWA is still fucking awesome and they're still as good live as a few years ago, Telle even did his "backflip" :D
NoPityForA Coward They seriously played those two songs?!? I'm jealous. I've seen them twice and they have yet to play those songs at where I'm at. But this was during a support show with Killswitch Engage and Warped Tour 2014. Sadly I'm not seeing them with The Devil Wears Prada. Wish I could.
Zack should be the bassist or rhythm guitar because Zack often screams without doing clean vocals, and I think Zack Hansen is the most annoying lead guitarist.
Having been a fan of theirs for the past 11 years, seeing them grow has been absolutely amazing, and knowing that their early stuff still holds up this fucking well is just a delicious cherry on top.
Watching this I am amazed, our music has survived so long. Like been in this game since 2000 and look where we are. There three main music genres now, pop, rap, and metal. Salute
YEAH!!!!!!! first time hearing them. this is wicked. i seen the band name off to the side while i was listening to eyes set to kill, and i figured they were just another band, but they are awesome!!!!

This song/ EP is the definition of good metalcore. Sad this era is over :(
I feel the same It's kinda sad, TWA used to be my favorite band.
+Jason Fontaine Definition of good metalcore = As I Lay Dying.
I was there at the glasshouse when they filmed this and man they just aren't the same :( such a good memory too lol
Ricky Silverman That's really sick you were there!
Good times man, the line up was stellar!
0:22 I WANT SOME PANCAKES

I'm pretty sure Luke Holland was in TWA when Craig Mabbitt was in it and they still Have Dusty lol he has always been in TWA
Alex Hively
Luke joined in 2012 after Life Cycles are released. Something like that.
Love this lineup with dusty on the keyboard
Zachs scream is freaking effortless and amazing!!! Love this band

This album is a legend, never did the word alive ever sound this good again. Not hating lmfao still listening. Just... this... is well a masterpiece.
i’m with you
TH-cam bring back memories again.
The good old time :')
the best line up they had (although I am more a fan of this band with craig - demos were incredible) including nick, dusty, tony a.
Milligram Smile, where did you find the jonny craig demos?
Kris Owens i meant craig mabbitt not jonny craig. craig formed twa
Milligram Smile, you're right, i completely forgot. i never thought our scene would see a day when TWA was bigger/more relevant than ETF

Yes it does I was jamming it today
Missing this concert energy so much
1:59 He did a handstand on his keyboard o--O
THEY GIVE SO MUCH ENERGY AND THE CROWD JUST STANDS THERE.
I still come back to hear this version just for Zach’s scream. So fucking powerful. Miss this TWA :/
Telle's screams are EPIC!!!

Probably one of the best times for this genre in my opinion
what the hell. that was mind blowing. i am STILL amazed at the keyboardist
This is gold!

If you band has a guy that can do a handstand on the keyboard and a backfliping vocalist, you know you kick ass.
Holy shit this was one epic performance. Eyegasm, eargasm, how many more gasms are there?
Goooooood!!!!! Screamo!!!!
"WE ARE THE WORD ALIVE!"
Sick keyboard handstand bro
So much energy o_0
