They aren't a Christian rock band, they're a rock band who's members happen to be christian. They don't preach Christianity in their songs and have made a point of saying that they aren't a Christian band. They are however FUCKING AWESOME!!
The fact I never knew they were christian says a lot. So, so many religious people are between chill and fucking awesome. Wish more people would take notice.
A few songs sound like conversations with a higher power (like "fix me") but they never mention a specific higher power. Religiousness in music done right.

You can't compare this with Paramore... No hate against Paramore, I fucking love them. But really, this sounds absolutely nothing like Paramore. But this song is awesome!
GamingRisen You're right. Paramore started of with a pop-punk emo sound and switched towards a more pop-rockish sound in the last few years. Icon for Hire is definitely on the fine line separating metal and lighter genres like rock and punk... if they aren't metal to begin with. Light or heavy, neither is bad or good, it's all up to preferences. But yeah, Paramore is way less heavy than than Icon for Hire. Even in their old albums like Riot! and All we Know is Falling are lighter than IFH.
I agree, even when Paramore has used unclean vocals in the past, the sound was not as heavy as IFH. But I'm just over seeing Paramore brought up on videos from bands that have a woman lead.
+Sebastian Arnold That doesn't explain it. There first album wasn't exactly unsuccessful, look at the millions of views their music videos have, even this one has over a million. It's just that now they don't have a label, so they don't get the same publicity and are funded literally only by fans.
+Redstar2613 excuse me? their first album wasn't successful? I think 90% of the fans would agree with me that the first album is like 1000 times better then the second album, on which they basically lost me as a fan.. sad to see that they don't continue the road they were on.. first album is Maby the best female fronted album ever
i like how brutally honest she is with everyone and herself in her music shes not afraid to say her opinion out loud "if your happy and you know it then there must be something wrong with you" "whats the point of holding on when all of us dont want you to, it'd make us feel better knowing you'd be stuck forever" and "sick minds stick together we can stay sick forever" i fricken love it.
Icon For Hire, you guys are more than just a rock band - You guys are PHENOMENONAL ADVOCATES!!! It's ridiculous that you guys are not on the mainstream because they need you guys badly!!! ❤
This is just on the edge for me, if the music were any heavier I would hate it. But as it stands it's just the right amount that I can still rock out to it.

+Gothic Nightmare It's a shame. They deserve more attention but frankly the truth isn't viewed well by most people. Most people would rather listen to artists who sing of love rather than important and meaningful and REAL topics and messages.
Lol good lord these guys have grown fast. I remember going to their first concert. I still have their "The Grey" EP release show autographed t-shirt by the original members. Man...
I just saw them live tonight and it was the best concert that I have honestly ever been to. Their first album was a little managed and controlled and with this new album they had all the freedom they wanted. It. Is. Going. To. Be. Sick.
saw them yesterday. my car broke down twice (the second time the engine blew). had to run 3 miles, then take a cab the rest of the way. it was a 2.5 hour car ride WITHOUT breaking down. (so glad i left early). this band is amazing, and im so glad i heard about them a year or so ago. even though im out of a car now, im glad i saw them. i had SUCH an amazing time. this song is so good, and it sounds even BETTER live.
No lyrics video in existence has ever had better quality than this one. Both the visuals and the song was spectacular. :) +1 Like Keep up the wonderful work.
Mad Max Miner I was there too, epic night and both bands kicked it! Felt a bit strange though because nobody else knew these guys... my group was like the only people singing along to them :P
I was thinking the same thing. When it started I thought "I'm not sure if I'm gonna like this" but that thought was thrashed out of my mind fairly quickly
Amazing job on this video! Thanks a bunch for making this. Please make more! Oh, and Ariel is so pretty. I've met her twice in person and she is very personable and a "Perfect 10".
new to icon for hire, only been listening to them for about 4 months. Listening to this song and thinking hmm i'll give it a chance...second play yeah its okay....third play *head nods* fourth play...yeah once again i am hooked by the musical talent of icon for hire and ariel has a great voice!!

This was one the radio and i have been in love with it since OMGGG ITS PERFFFECTTTTTTT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and i love paramore and this is amazing bc i love paramore and it reminds me of hayley :DDDD
You misunderstand, I love Icon For Hire a lot ^.^ I'm simply saying that I don't find much likeness other than that they're kinda the same genre, but that's MY opinion :)
My friend took me to see them. I had no idea who they were at the time but I'm glad I went along. They are so much better live! If you can, keep track of their tours. Maybe you can see them the next time around. Definitely worth the money.
i came here from listening Hope Of Morning :3 that song gave me a good taste and i decided to give a opportunity to this artist and now i know it worth it :3 so perfect!
I was thinking the same thing! They NEED to bring Josh into the fold more so he would be a part of the recording process...his screams would make Icon music the ultimate of epic-ness!
+Hope Tuohy No, I can see that, I see it more as a thing about drug addiction. Considering these things are up to the observer, listener in this case, it could be about happy go lucky days.
I went to one of their shows at Creation East a few years ago-my friends and I knew they had a huge internet following, and they absolutely blew us away! And as a musician myself-I found it hysterical that her vocal soundcheck was to rap for 5 minutes...ya my friends jaws were on the floor after that.

At 2:11 is when Ariel went into overdrive and started screaming at warped. Absolutely amazing!
Ariel screamed??? AWESOME!
BlueGhostofSeaside Her name is Ariel?
her name is Ariel Bloomer. And yes, she screamed like a freaking bad ass.
MAN! I wish I could have seen that!
IM GONNA GO SEE THEM IN JUNE!!! XD
Icon for hire will FOREVER stay in my heart!! they helped through rouuughhh times in my teenage years! truly icons of music!
You can't compare this with Paramore... No hate against Paramore, I fucking love them. But really, this sounds absolutely nothing like Paramore. But this song is awesome!
I agree
No offense but ive noticed that Icon for Hire has a far heavier sound than Paramore.
GamingRisen
You're right. Paramore started of with a pop-punk emo sound and switched towards a more pop-rockish sound in the last few years.
Icon for Hire is definitely on the fine line separating metal and lighter genres like rock and punk... if they aren't metal to begin with.
Light or heavy, neither is bad or good, it's all up to preferences. But yeah, Paramore is way less heavy than than Icon for Hire. Even in their old albums like Riot! and All we Know is Falling are lighter than IFH.
I agree, even when Paramore has used unclean vocals in the past, the sound was not as heavy as IFH. But I'm just over seeing Paramore brought up on videos from bands that have a woman lead.
Ben Enderby I feel like the lyrics are similar to Paramore's older music, but their styles have major differences.
my angsty 12 y/o emo self would be so proud of me listening to this rn lmao
ruetube Dude same. I had good ass music taste back then.
Hahahahahhaha
Same, I remember discovering this band 6 years ago when I was around 13 years old and it seemed so new and eye opening at the time
Still a banger tho
When you're at your volume limit but it doesn't seem loud enough tho
Yup
I FUCKING HATE THAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WHEN I LISTEN TO SLIPKNOT... MY... EARS... MUST... BLEEEEEEEEEED!!!
I have an iphone, worst fricken sound ever!!!!! It's like "NUUUUUUUU LOUDERRRRRRRRRR"
same
Same
i want this band to be more well known, but at the same time i wanna cuddle it and kidnap it and keep it all to myself.
Ikr
Same, I understand the pain.
Exsomnis Anima totally this. I want them to be huge but I love that they're "one of my bands" 😊
Strange, I would love to do that with Ariel.
Dude,But we all Love Icon for Hire.
Don't steal it for yourself xD
part of me wants this band to be more well known but the other part of me likes that only a few people really know it
right
Same
We're all fuckin' hipsters.

Why is this band SO UNDERRATED AH

Anyone in 2020 jamming out, lol it's my birthday and my gift is remembering this band
Lindsey Nixon me
This song is kinda lit tho
I just found this band a few months ago so it's all still new to me
Jamming in 2020!!!! (Also happy belated birthday ;D )
cheers to that
Icon For Hire, you guys are more than just a rock band - You guys are PHENOMENONAL ADVOCATES!!! It's ridiculous that you guys are not on the mainstream because they need you guys badly!!! ❤
PHENOMINAL ADVOCATES. YES!! Check out "Under the knife". Especially the ending. WOW!! (And I'm not even emo).
Still banging to this in 2023
This is just on the edge for me, if the music were any heavier I would hate it. But as it stands it's just the right amount that I can still rock out to it.
yea!
Hah! You can't handle heavy music! This is extremely soft though compared to what I normally listen to.
Bioactive Virus lol yeah this is soft
The Shadowman 2.0 it is lol. I listen mostly to extreme genres of metal
lol same I found this because I wanted to hear something new lol
The effects on this video are fuckin crazy. best I have ever seen on a lyrics video
+Chaox Corrupted You must be a fan of windows movie maker, lol.
+Chaox Corrupted " The Animal In Me - I Created A Monster "
or "orelsan suicide social clip officiel " (really make sens if you know French for this one)
if anything needed a real video it's this.
I rediscovered this band after years of me forgetting what they were called. I stumbled across this song and I wish I found it sooner
what the fuck why is this band not more popular
Because popular culture SUCKS!!
The same for tonight alive
***** No, they've been around for like seven years….
They left their record label, so they're only getting exposure on Warped Tour. No help to get well known.

Everyones freaking about it just now, but honeslty when i listened to 'Nerves' 2-3 years ago i was like y DO ONLY FEW PEOPLE LOVE YOU
I am not exaggerating, this is the best song I have ever heard. Icon For Hire, you are my favorite band. Never stop playing.
HER VOCALS ARE SO GOOD, AAAAHHHHHHHHH! W H Y
Lol good lord these guys have grown fast. I remember going to their first concert. I still have their "The Grey" EP release show autographed t-shirt by the original members. Man...
oh my god what brilliance have i just found
Alex Green bahaha me last year
One of my favorite songs
I just saw them live tonight and it was the best concert that I have honestly ever been to. Their first album was a little managed and controlled and with this new album they had all the freedom they wanted. It. Is. Going. To. Be. Sick.
This has to be the angstiest song I've ever heard. This makes Linkin Park look happy.
saw them yesterday. my car broke down twice (the second time the engine blew). had to run 3 miles, then take a cab the rest of the way.
it was a 2.5 hour car ride WITHOUT breaking down. (so glad i left early). this band is amazing, and im so glad i heard about them a year or so ago. even though im out of a car now, im glad i saw them. i had SUCH an amazing time.
this song is so good, and it sounds even BETTER live.
I’ve never had such an obsession with a song. I listened to it 3 days ago and I’ve played it at least 15 times.
This band just gets better and better
No lyrics video in existence has ever had better quality than this one. Both the visuals and the song was spectacular. :)

Paramore can never be this angry...or sound this good angry.
Loooove this! Lyrically and musically, the awesomeness...cannot wait for this album to drop!!
Been a while since I've head banged this song lol! 😂 it's still awesome!

I love how heavy it sounds!
And I LOVE how rough her voice gets towards the end.
Beautiful guys.
Truly beautiful!
Awesome Song!
This band is AWESOME. I only found out about them and their songs are just awesome! Love Them!
For me, a band's second major release is where you see what they're about and if they have potential. Well... I'm floored.
