The lyrics are great, "Competition telling us to follow guidelines, to stay right handed. Music from the heart, lyrics from the head to my hand and I'm left handed."
You can say anything in the comments and everyone follows on blind faith. I love it. This guy also saved my life from a polar bear in iceland, really shook me up!
From Hertz Island we expanded, never delivered or landed, more than the label demanded. Competition telling us to follow those guidelines, and to stay right handed but music comes from the heart, lyrics from my head to my hand, and I 'm left handed!!!
I absolutely love Alexander's voice. His screams are so unique and make their songs seem refreshing. They really stick out from all these tons of bands with the same generic vocalists.
Wow. What a power. I found it accidentally on my Spotify. My face turned into a smile within a few seconds. Very unusual for a song I hear the first time!
Proud to be a swede.. even more proud to have seen them live, and shaken hands with Alexander the frontman. Cant wait to see these guys killing it on stage again
The mad ass thing about this frontman is he can actually pull this studio vocals off live .. if not better so easy with no strain to be seen . Crazy love these nutters .. November 15 come on Anthems 👊👹🤘🇦🇺
amazing band! they combine hardcore with metal...the perfect sound! I remember when I bought "you´re not like me" 15 years ago...and they get from album to album better! CONGRATULATIONS!
It really amazes me that this band have never let me down! They have kept their integrity up to this day, which is close to 20 years. This is the only band in the entire world that deserves our fullest respect!
To everyone complaining about the singer, those dudes are from Sweden, so he probably has a pretty thick accent. But... I think it is pretty bad ass that he can write and sing so well in English. I don't see many native english speakers putting out Swedish language albums.
Seriously, anyone slightly interested in their music needs to see them. I saw them live before I'd properly listened to them and they have such an aura about them. I had to see them again.

@@standinsilence This is my take: Society is teaching us to become right wing. The free market - the competition looking out for yourself, delivering what the market need etc. But Hagman claims he writes from the heart (compassion) and therefore is left wing (left handed) and also staying true to himself and the bands vision.
just came home from a small concert in Graz...loved those guys before, now even more! Amazing energy. If you haven't seen them yet, you definately missed something in your life.
Learned about these guys in school. Studied film and we had one of the guys (can't remember the name of him) visit and talk about music video production. This must have been back in 2012!
First time I ever heard them was when "Different but the Same" got put on one of the Punk o Ramas 20 years ago. They are awesome and I hope they tour in the US someday. If not, I'll definitely go to Europe just to see them.
Found you about a TH-cam MergeClip. WTF. Guuuuuuuuuuys!!! Amazing voice, amazing sound!!! U are in my personal band hall of fame. Aktually Number 1... One of the best i´ve ever heard!
Raised Fist rocks! Always felt they deserved more international recognition! I wonder if they ever did any touring or just a live gig or two with the band Refused since both are from Norrland, SWE.
thx TPB, this great band, finally gets noticed by some more people. i´m listening to them for about a year now and always wondered why they dont have more fans.
Its because Hagman watched all those 80s Karate-movies when he was a little boy and got obsessed with high jumping kicks. Then he grew up to be a big tattooed man with a Northern Swedish accent who is still obsessed with the jumpung kicks he saw in those movies when he was a little boy.
First time: "This dude sounds like hes on helium lol" Second Time: "It sounds good as long as i dont see the singer cause ill just laugh at his voice" Third time: "YEEEAAAARRGHHH!!! >:D"
June 2023. Still a great song!
June 2024. Still great!
The lyrics are great, "Competition telling us to follow guidelines, to stay right handed.

This guy is my Brazilian jiu-jitsu coach and he's a fucking beast. Such a helpful and humble guy as well!
I definitely wouldn't want to scrap with the guy thats for sure!
how loud are his lessons?

Just like Ignite, Pennywise, Anti Flag or Billy Talent I think :-)
'.. .
Defiantly got the same exact vibe!
Agnostic Front, no?
Disagree. His voice is rather similar to Magnus Klavborn from Engel and The Duskfall.
But that's cool:)

I would have wanted to see them live
Tjenare. Du kommer antagligen inte se det här 9 år senare men min bonuskusin såg dem live för 3 dagar sedan
always envied the swedish metal scene. only bangers allowed.
replying to a 10yr old comment. lol
Che gruppo!! Grandi!
I remember this from the days of the pirate bay doing "the promo bay". I come back from time to time. Who else is still listening in 2024?
The mad ass thing about this frontman is he can actually pull this studio vocals off live .. if not better so easy with no strain to be seen . Crazy love these nutters .. November 15 come on Anthems 👊👹🤘🇦🇺
Rock on from Canada, you absolute madlad!

One of the most original and amazing band of the HC music ambient in the last 10 years!
The Legend of ~Pirate Bay~ still lives!!!
Amazing band, always train listening to them

So true! Almost all my favorite bands are from Sweden! Thank you for making awesome music from me in Norway!
Such an underrated band

Great Band, great song, great voice
I love their vocalists voice
Awesome track, awesome band!

@@standinsilence herrtz island, english translation of "hertsön", the part of the city luleå the band is originating from.
I’m left handed too
Found this band after reading a book called “La Rage de Vivre” for school... this is awesome
Love this band! Really wish I could see them live here in S.A!
I'm in Zim, I'd come there quick fast and in a hurry
just came home from a small concert in Graz...loved those guys before, now even more! Amazing energy. If you haven't seen them yet, you definately missed something in your life.
+Raussl Vienna was amazing too :)
Learned about these guys in school. Studied film and we had one of the guys (can't remember the name of him) visit and talk about music video production. This must have been back in 2012!
Solid song, solid band!
i still remember when i first heard them, think it was cheap shots 1, anyway, i was 11 and that was 21 years ago:) still listen to them daily
First time I ever heard them was when "Different but the Same" got put on one of the Punk o Ramas 20 years ago. They are awesome and I hope they tour in the US someday. If not, I'll definitely go to Europe just to see them.
Alle is one hell of a crazy hardcore vocalist, full of energy! Respect from your motherland Serbia bro, keep up the good energy!
For over 5+ years i have searched for this Bands Video for this Song, finally after over 5 years TH-cam searches listened to my prayers!
My friend used to learn mma from one of the guitar players xD thats how i even know of this song haha
That is one of uniqueness of Metal. Scream.
Killer song video and band 🤘🏼🔥
This video makes me want to buy a Polo shirt.
Looooooooo
Alberto R. Diaz Why?
+Federico Iglesias Griotti They're all wearing polo shirts
+Alberto R. Diaz Epic comment. AHAHAHA
+Alberto R. Diaz jajaja
New fan! I love this pissed off music, makes me wanna break shit.
Brandon Grubbs I would like to break Scott’s jaw 🤐
More than Break stuff
Makes me wanna reset society
my throat's sore just from watching this guy sing
Would love to see this band live... Awesome
The drum beats in this are epic
Found you about a TH-cam MergeClip. WTF. Guuuuuuuuuuys!!! Amazing voice, amazing sound!!! U are in my personal band hall of fame. Aktually Number 1... One of the best i´ve ever heard!
I lost count of how many times I pressed the repeat button by now...
Amazing talk yell... just speaking to us in YELL... and even better scream when he sings the amazing song..
Still holds up 100
Raised Fist rocks! Always felt they deserved more international recognition! I wonder if they ever did any touring or just a live gig or two with the band Refused since both are from Norrland, SWE.
Ajá pero este tema mientras haces flexiones sentadillas y abdominales.
bought this cd for $3
best $3 i ever spent
awesome.. keep buying those records..
:)
If it's a joke, I like it.
this song pumps me up..... YEAH!!!
I never thought this kind of music would still exist in 2012
Compared to mainstream stuff, this is on the level.
cant wait for their new album
10th July 2016 explosive stage on "exit" festival in Serbia :) can't wait :)
Jedva se ceka!!
idemo kidamo
Idemo gari :D
Did you enjoy it?
i shaved before i watch this video. now all my beards are back.
All of them???
Holyshit, my fellow Indon
This song is basically what my ADD makes me feel like when I am not zoning out. Maaaannn I cannot stop listening to it on repeat!!
I respect any artist who advertises on the Pirate Bay.
Best quote:
MY NAME IS ALEXANDER - RAISED FISTS COMMANDER!
OMG check out the nice DROPKICK kind of at 2:46 !! good stuff
Fucking love these lyrics
i love how he is always singing with CAPS
The Pirate Bay sent me here! Lovin' the song. Will be buying the album!!
My name is Alexander,
the Raised Fist commander,!!!!
Quite opposite lol
"But music comes from the heart, lyrics from my head to my hand, and I 'm left handed"
They are on the left.
I thought I heard it too.
@doesnotcompute81 Look up the lyrics to their song Working On Wood and you'll see its the total opposite like the other commenter said
I like the part where he yells
Not very specific
This is hilarious 😂
Me too
Its a very considerate scream
I like the part where he accidently jumpkicks one of the guitarplayers hard in the head.
HFS....SO MUCH RAGE IN HIS VOICE...FINALLY SOMETHING REAL....
Thanks TPB for showing me another great piece of music.
lead singer is ripped out of his mind good shit
Spotify introduced me to this band.
About all I can say good about Spotify...
1:54 THAT TRAITOR MOVE !
At 0:57 Karl Pilkington has no idea how he ended up in Raised Fist
Haha 🤣🤣
Pfff
Hahaha, it's a beaut Clark
🤣
Surprised this kind of music is still around. I can't think of a music genre that sounds more stagnant ..
thx TPB, this great band, finally gets noticed by some more people. i´m listening to them for about a year now and always wondered why they dont have more fans.
Music Level: SWEDISH
Music level: LULEÅ
+Julia Lindman Proud to be from Luleå
+Linus Bäckström Är inte från Luleå lol
+Julia Lindman Jag är!? :P
Swedish hardcore is like Hip Hop from the 90s, the best! ...and now I'll be "closing my eyes for the haters" :P
I’m still here
I still can read your comments 😂
"My name is Alexander Raised Fist commander"
Kommer aldrig förlåta Alexander Gustafsson om han inte använder den här låten nån gång för sin walkout, den är ju som klippt och skuren!
One of the best hardcore bands ever!!!
the type of vocals in this song the kind that you either hate it or dig it! for me i cant stop listening to this lol
2:47 impressive jumping
Its because Hagman watched all those 80s Karate-movies when he was a little boy and got obsessed with high jumping kicks. Then he grew up to be a big tattooed man with a Northern Swedish accent who is still obsessed with the jumpung kicks he saw in those movies when he was a little boy.
Considering doing a pushup or two, so that I may someday have that kind of polo shirt game.
Fucking forgot about this band... This dude has jump kicks on lock
Förmodligen fetaste låten å videon ever, som tjejen inte får titta på igen.
Dude has hops for days! Watched it a million times and it still amazes me! Phenomenal song #fangirling
First time: "This dude sounds like hes on helium lol"
Second Time: "It sounds good as long as i dont see the singer cause ill just laugh at his voice"
Third time: "YEEEAAAARRGHHH!!! >:D"
2019.
Anyone else think the guitarist looks like Karl Pilkington?
lol
i thougt on nikola sarcevic from millencolin
Love this song, soo good melodics, theres some magic in it!
I can't stop hitting the replay button. Thanks TPB for sending me here :)
