Feeling the breeze of change Lethargy rolls over me again Like sap over a midge Is it real or just pretend? It's alive in the dark And it knows where I'm gonna be Forever returning, again and again Into the house, into the den Elastic stretched and strained I know I could change This shirt is ripped and stained You're pushing familiar drugs again You're pushing in _You're pushing in_ I can't resist _Can't resist_ I feel you under my skin Pushing familiar drugs again Feeling the turning tides Indifference takes hold again Like mist over the lake Is it real or is it fake? I won't fight the gravity Let the current take me where it please Right down the fucking drain Into my lungs, into my veins Elastic stretched and strained I know I could change This shirt is ripped and stained You're pushing familiar drugs again You're pushing in _You're pushing in_ I can't resist _Can't resist_ I feel you under my skin Pushing familiar drugs again You're pushing in _You're pushing in_ I can't resist _Can't resist_ I feel you under my skin Pushing familiar drugs again
Fantastic song. True to AOF and authentic. Glad they've opted to record and release at their own pace rather than rush an album... even though we'd all love a full album :D
@@fiveonenine68 I watched that interview and it could be either or. George said they wrote and demoed some other songs along with Familiar Drugs back in December of 2018 so who knows, especially since they recorded this song all by themselves; who's to say that they couldn't just drop a whole album at midnight in a few months time.
@@fiveonenine68 Completely agree, no one should ever rush anything. Self-releasing is the best way to keep complete control of whatever you create. A lot of "Emo" bands from the 2000's have been doing this and it's done well for them so far.
It's a grower, for sure, but I really wanted more material like Dog's Blood. Aside from this sounding like a leaked demo, I'd be happy enough if the new album sounded like this too.
Am I the only one that views this song as an open love letter to us as fans? We've been showing them how much we want them back and want new music and they are feeling ready to feel the highs of performing and writing music again. We've been pushing a familiar drug to them; The band.
Don't get me wrong, I'm happy they're back, I think the times right for them to come back, but it's so sludgey. I always loved the soaring noodly guitars and the technical drum fills, this is different. It's a wait and see but I'm certainly watching.
@Jake Conner Oh, if this is part of the repertoire sign me up, but if this is the whole new sound eh, maybe the best days are behind us. This is not a hard condemnation.
Let’s see the rest of it boys!!! Hoping to hear you scream George!!! I grew up with you!! And I NEEEEED it!! This is 💯better then the last album!!! Heck yeah!!!!!!
Was that quote about anything new from Alexisonfire making Dog's Blood sound like a ska album ever proven true? Cause this sounds like a damn good start
I forgot how badly mixed this original track was. It sounds much better. But they produced this entirely by themselves so it's understandable it was a little rough at first. They killed this song live.
The Only Band Ever is back!
Fuck yes
You guys should do a video on Alexis.
Yer fuck city and colour
site won't work
Welcome back Alexisonfire. We missed you.
A triumphant return for the greatest post hardcore band of all time.
This is the moment i’ve been waiting for years ❤️
Feeling the breeze of change
Lethargy rolls over me again
Like sap over a midge
Is it real or just pretend?
It's alive in the dark
And it knows where I'm gonna be
Forever returning, again and again
Into the house, into the den
Elastic stretched and strained
I know I could change
This shirt is ripped and stained
You're pushing familiar drugs again
You're pushing in _You're pushing in_
I can't resist _Can't resist_
I feel you under my skin
Pushing familiar drugs again
Feeling the turning tides
Indifference takes hold again
Like mist over the lake
Is it real or is it fake?
I won't fight the gravity
Let the current take me where it please
Right down the fucking drain
Into my lungs, into my veins
Elastic stretched and strained
I know I could change
This shirt is ripped and stained
You're pushing familiar drugs again
You're pushing in _You're pushing in_
I can't resist _Can't resist_
I feel you under my skin
Pushing familiar drugs again
You're pushing in _You're pushing in_
I can't resist _Can't resist_
I feel you under my skin
Pushing familiar drugs again
3:46 Dallas'es voice break here sounded awesome!
Really frustrating that their TH-cam channel isn't called "AOFficial".
That'd be Alexisonfire fical😂
AOF IS BACK AND NEVER DISAPPOINTS.
Welcome back, fantastic song
The world was waiting impatiently for this...worth it!
Genuinely one of my favorite AOF songs. Good shit boys! As an artist with literally gigs of unfinished work this resonates so much.
Omg. Best day ever! ❤️❤️❤️
"Soon the junkie's gonna need a fix"
Well, the weather let up today!!! Welcome back Alexisonfire, we hope you're here to stay
Green Kid you win the internet today fam.
Yaaaaaaaaa finally george the fireman is backkkkkkkkkkk
Absolutely in love with this, love how stoner-y the guitar tone sounds, especially towards the end.
same, something different.
THE ONES AND ONLY !!!! THEY ARE BACK ! I can't believe it
Not Pulmonary Archery or anything but I'd still go and see them. I know I know, we are not the kids we used to be.
It's never too late to be early...
Or try and maintain...
Some scrap of integrity and certainty...
I guess.
LOVED That song
Hands down- best song ever- little girls pointing and laughing.... it’s etched in my soul.
Polaroids ..... the best!
I was at their recent show in Toronto and it was sick. They played their old stuff as well as their new stuff.
Finally back!!!! Wicked song! PTH and AOF Tour someday plz
That's be great
Protest the Hero? I thought no one knew they existed. That would be such a good show
Fantastic song. True to AOF and authentic. Glad they've opted to record and release at their own pace rather than rush an album... even though we'd all love a full album :D
Who's to say they haven't already, this could be the first single.
@@SignalsOverTheAir they may be bluffing, but they just did an interview saying so.

@@SignalsOverTheAir eh, totally possible. More broadly, just saying I respect that they're not rushing it and putting out stuff they're not proud of.
@@fiveonenine68 Completely agree, no one should ever rush anything. Self-releasing is the best way to keep complete control of whatever you create. A lot of "Emo" bands from the 2000's have been doing this and it's done well for them so far.
Yes yes yes just yes. Missed you guys. Love from Milton
Please please come to Denver again
It's a grower, for sure, but I really wanted more material like Dog's Blood. Aside from this sounding like a leaked demo, I'd be happy enough if the new album sounded like this too.
Grows on me more every time I listen to it. Nice shit.
i just shat myself. I'm getting to that toronto show if it kills me.
Late to the comment party here, but what a killer track! Dallas Green's voice is haunting over top those heavy guitars. Love it.
Am I the only one that views this song as an open love letter to us as fans? We've been showing them how much we want them back and want new music and they are feeling ready to feel the highs of performing and writing music again.
We've been pushing a familiar drug to them; The band.
A comeback that's worth the wait - that was sublime. Now...repeat.
Glorious!! Please never go away again!!
I’m too poor to make the Toronto dates but god damn I’m so happy you guys are back! ❤️🤘
At long last..... another new masterpiece, and it's as awesome as ever!!!!
Christmas has come really early this year. Only one word needed. AMAZING!
Please come to aus, i could die happy seeing you guys perform live ❤️
Tears!!!!! I’m complete
Soooo good!
Such a great track. Cannot fucking wait for more 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
At last, they're back. Good thing they stayed true to their original style of music
yeah so glad they haven't come back with some faux-technical breakdown autotuned cleans crap.
Needs Alexisonfire, Underoath and Emery tour together in UK
This would be the ultimate tour!
Don't get me wrong, I'm happy they're back, I think the times right for them to come back, but it's so sludgey. I always loved the soaring noodly guitars and the technical drum fills, this is different. It's a wait and see but I'm certainly watching.

Don't care if it's not for you because it IS for me
welcome back THE ONLY BAND EVER
OH WELCOME BACK !!!!!
See you guys in Toronto and Ottawa this summer! Cant fucking Wait.
This is beautiful... as always you do.

Already waiting for you in Rio, Brazil.
I've ordered my copy 😊
Love it. Sounds like a mixture of alterbridge and chevelle with the heavy riffs and grungy vocals
Let’s see the rest of it boys!!! Hoping to hear you scream George!!! I grew up with you!! And I NEEEEED it!! This is 💯better then the last album!!! Heck yeah!!!!!!
I AM SO DAMN HAPPY THAT ALEXISONFIRE IS BACK

@@bjadov very good observation.
@@bjadov no shit sherlock
Was that quote about anything new from Alexisonfire making Dog's Blood sound like a ska album ever proven true?
Cause this sounds like a damn good start
Thank the Lord. That’s a fucking tune. Dance like there’s no one watching you.
Still here in 2021 🤘🤘
I'm getting some real Mastodon vibes from this and I'm fucking digging it
Headphones cannot go any louder. Why?
I am so happy, ty AoF
definite dogs blood vibes
Goosebumps...
This band is a familiar drug
*hardcore* cough
After all those years...
Always.
THE ONLY BAND EVER ♥
Anyone else get a Crisis meets Dogs Blood EP kind of vibe?
The only band ever
Im actually really happy that one of my favorite bands are coming back.... Getting there logo tattooed on me on the second can't wait for more music
I forgot how badly mixed this original track was. It sounds much better. But they produced this entirely by themselves so it's understandable it was a little rough at first. They killed this song live.
AFTER ALL THIS TIME, FINALLY~
Listen to this un every platform!! 10 years waitin finally overr!!! #familiardrugs #alexisonfire #theonlybandever

They need to tour with cancer bats. That's a show I'd go to. Have black lungs as the opener haha
Man I've missed you guys
LOVE 💚💚💚💚💚
Welcome back dudes
HOW DID I MISS THIS?!
Bit ironic that my ad was a psa for Canadian drug overdose
Dallas love you
Not sure if I dig this or not
I like it, but I don't really enjoy the vibrato in the clean vocals.
It will grow on ya
Yeah... it's a lot better live.
Come to Russia please 😍😍😍
Sick
Disculpen la tardanza...bienvenidos como siempre a mis oidos
We got hooks
World tour!
This fucking song is the BEST
