this band needs more recognition
+patrick cruz I totally agree. Just got hooked like 10 minutes ago and I'm sold. They're really a bunch of talents making awesome music.
patrick cruz yes👏
8 years later and sad to say they still do.
It's quite remarkable that Protest The Hero has put together a band, where each and every one of the members completely masters their instruments.
Why do people say that PTH vocalist sucks? That is something i will NEVER understand... The dude's pipes is just simply incredible... The first PTH song i ever heard was Sequoia Throne and the part where he says "Hellbent on Heaven" made me a fan forever.
Well he doesn't sing in tune. It's like objectively bad... I'm not gonna lie, I'd love these songs as instrumentals so I don't have to hear his whiney out-of-tune singing
@@MrSevenEleven lol obvious trolling
@@MrSevenEleven pff hahahahhaha
Singing and all art is subjective. Don't worry about what other people think, the world is filled with idiots. You don't need their approval to like the singing.
@@MrSevenEleven Your oppinion is completely irrelevant lmaoo
This band in my opinion is one of the greatest and most original artists of the past the decade. This album is awesome and so is Fortress, but the album Kezia is the reason I love them so much. To me it is a masterpiece and my future daughter is no joke gonna be named Kezia because of that album. I just hope she doesn't have to go through what her namesake went through..
The way the guitar sounds like a splatter at 1:40 after the lyrics "And his final sound..." will always be one of my favorite things.
Man, I'm ashamed to say I've listened to this song hundreds of times and never noticed that!
Just goes to prove that all ya need for a good music video is particle board, atmospheric lighting, and a good song to hold it all together.
Been four years since I lost one of my best friends. I used to play this on guitar and he’d jam it on drums. Then boom...I wake up to a text saying that he took his own life. Crazy how one second you’re jamming out to a song about suicide then wake up and have to actually deal with it. Especially with the person you loved playing this song with
I'm so sorry man
I understand your grieving, man. I lost several friends throughout high school. But if anyone here is a believer. If you could pray for me. I've been struggling with the thoughts again recently. Heavily actually. It'd be cool. Even if you're question, or don't believe. What could it hurt to do it. I'm honestly begging. I'm struggling so hard.
@@Beanys728 hang on there, friend.
@@Beanys728 hang in there bro. If not for you for everyone you care and hold dear. Trust me life is far from easy but to say you did it without regret and to the fullest ur capable of doing is what makes it worth it in the end. Ur part of one the greatest musical orientated families out there and we want you here.
Peace to you brother
@@Beanys728 stay strong buddy
Those vocals! Anyone who can sing this song is practically a god!
YAY! I'm a god!
***** Can't record a high quality cover to this song now but you may check out me singing by searching this: As we last - Crimson mist.
I mean I am actually a singer.
Yeah, no.
@@Rybus1 we could produce a Pth colab cover, im a drummer who loves PTH
You need to check out Gerard Vachon. He killed it in his cover of this.
The guitar play at 1:40 is one of the most underappreciated pieces of music of all time.
Stepped off a chair so he could learn to let loose
Learn to let loose before the pendulum wore off
In his final sound a gurgle and a cough
In his final words the pendulum wore off
Stepped off a building to find some concrete evidence
Concrete evidence that he'd ever make an impact
Fiction splattered into
Fiction splattered into fact
And his fiction splattered into another sidewalk painting on display
Stepped off a bridge so he could make a splash
To make a splash he had to flounder like a fish out of water
Another lamb that chose the slaughter
Stepped off a chair so he could learn to let loose
Learn to let loose before the pendulum wore off
And his final sound
Stepped off the platform and he briefly made,
Yeah, he briefly made the news
It made the news and he made the trains run fifteen minutes late
Oh, what a price to pay, the trains were fifteen minutes late
Oh, what a price to pay, to be the author of your fate
The trains were fifteen minutes late (to be the author of your fate)
The trains were fifteen minutes late (to be the author of your fate)
C'est la vie!
A drooling old bitch and a house full of lies
C'est la vie!
The little things that kill you make you glad to be alive
C'est la vie!
Disease in your genes and ocean levels on the rise
C'est la vie!
Sing a song of living, before everybody dies!
I normally don't like song lyrics in any genre, but this one is so gorgeously written!
You normally don't like song lyrics in any genre? Lol what the hell? I've never heard anybody say that
@@andrewwoodward8563 yeah, I think song lyrics in general are mostly rubbish (including my own)
@@YuriDeryous Okay. Look. Humans do this weird thing where they make music with their mouths. They did it long before they made instruments to make accompanying sounds with.
Babies, bathwater, and all that...
@@JediNiytemy guy, he is saying that he normally likes instrumental music. Dont be an ass
Is it wierd that my world geography teacher told me to listen to them? Lol im glad he did, this is amazing!!!!!
Literally a great teacher. Give them a cake or something.
Ah your geography teacher... What a rocker
I want a teacher like yours
@@Vercies would've been funnier if it was his GEOLOGY teacher :p
What an actual legend.
So I came here after hearing their new release "the canary", because I just couldn't figure out what I wanted to make of this hair metal sound. But my god this song just blew me away man. I'm a heavy metal kinda dude but this, just wow
1:47 is the coolest possible jump to a chord I have ever seen!
I also love that it's not even necessary in the song! Purely for the video that aha
Also the best moustache twirl
I've been listening to this song for 8 years now, and every time I'm in awe how he makes those notes his personal bitches!!
How can anyone say this is terrible? Any musician would know this is amazing. The way the guitars sound the way the song is orchestrated it's like perfection to my ears lol.
I think more than anything it’s Brody’s vocals. Listening to the instrumental of “Fortress” now and honestly it’s mind blowing. I just can’t get into Brody’s vocals. Not hating by any means - Protest is amazing musically and insanely talented
Not to mention the video is great and fits the music well.
@@chasenthehype coming from someone who calls him “Brody” and not by his name “Rody,” we all know you don’t really know what you’re talking about.
@@hotdamnsucka It was a bit of a joke. Like bro-dude. Either way, yes, you are correct, but I'm really not a fan though so yeah take it as you will.
@@chasenthehype haha understood, I get it now. To each his own, although at least we agree PTH is top-notch 👍🏼
This is really great! I love how normal the vocalist looks.
These lyrics always give me crazy chills.
Everything about this band is great. The vocals, guitars (obviously), and the drums. An all around great band. Great guys, too.
This song will always strike a chord in my soul ❤ I can’t believe this video only has 1.3 million views.. you guys deserve so much more thank you
Protest The Hero are insanely talented. absolutely amazing band.
Who else is here watching in 2020? Love these guys. Saw them live a few years back and the singer got so hammered he forgot a lot of the words to this song and we all laughed together.
Just found the guys today with release of "the canary" but so far this is my favorite song
Anarchy welcome aboard!! This song is great!
@@christospietris now I'm working my way through their albums, almost done with kezia XD
2020 is so last year dude, gotta catch up with the times bro.
@@AcidxAnarchy Literally every albums is solid, its nearly impossible to make a playlist...
The metaphors and play of words are so strong in this song
Their lyrics are poetic.
How does this only have 1.5 million views??
so underrated it's unbelievable !!!!
probably one of the best bands on the planet. I mean, all of the members are masters of their instruments and throats. They even share vocal duties at times.
This album was too much for the weak, I've listened to it countless times along with every one of their albums. PTH is top tier music, Rody is a God and anyone who says he sucks... you suck. Luke is a God, every member of this band is a friggen God. Much love from Oshawa.
An amazing thing I heard from another youtuber: "If Freddie Mercury did metal, he would be Rody Walker and Queen would be Protest the Hero."
Apt!
PTH are absolute gods of metal, on the same level as BTBAM.
I've always said Metal found it's Freddy Mercury when Fortress released.
I don’t know how he would feel being compared to a guy who literally died of aids
@@gunnar6726He probably wouldn’t give a shit because he’s a normal guy that isn’t insecure
1:50 Drop tuning the beard to B is essential for this part....
Freaking amazing. I've fell in love with these guys all over again.
PTH, you never cease to amaze. Rock on guys, rock on.
"Stepped off a building to find some *concrete* evidence." LOL
halowaffles rest of the lyrics are pretty punny too
Jay Lee Ten years later and I finally bothered to check the lyrics to this song and actually understand them. This stuff is great.
10 years? The album was released in 2011. Lay off the drugs man.
+BrainSeepsOut Are you from the future? Did Trump win?!?!
yes
Don't know why but, I just love Arif's facial expressions XD
'Stepped off a building to find some concrete evidence, concrete evidence that he ever made an impact' is such a clever fucking lyric. The wordplay! Whoever wrote that is a fantastic writer. I love it!
Wish I was listening to this stuff back in 2011, my my has my taste developed since then lol
guitars at 1:40 ARE ORGASMIC
Finn Green dat bass tho
+Finn Green Mathcore bitchies.
So is that moustache twirl
Best guitarist ever:
Stops mid-solo to straighten his mustache...
so much win
Total chills listening to these vocals!
Urgh! Why are these guys so awesome?! I need to see them live, again!
Parabéns pelo som de voces, um dos melhores que ouvi nos ultimos tempos.
Agora venham ao Brasil =)
Congratulations for your music, one of the best I've heard in recent times.
Now come to Brazil =)
Infelizmente não vieram até hoje ;(
So, first song I hear from this band. This was on recommended, probably because of The Fall Of Troy, but I'm so fucking glad I found this. Everything's perfect. Killer riffs, perfect drums and bass and this guy's voice fits so well. Thanks TH-cam, you finally suggested something cool
listen to kezia the whole album is perfect
fuck that, listen to every damn thing theyve ever released. All of their full lengths are some of the best in prog metal to this day.
id say the same. im personally a bigger fan of Fortress than any other album.
Oh man, I'm gonna have to disagree. The only song on Volition I thought was forgettable was Mist. Also, Skies is now my favorite PTH song. That said, I can see why you'd think the album was mostly forgettable. You can really notice Moe's absence on the ones he didn't do (in my opinion at least) and without Moe's drumming PTH just doesn't sound the same. I personally liked it, but I can totally see why you might not like it as much as me.
For me Scurrilous and Volition are master pieces
I havent listened to Kezia and Fortress, but judging by the comments they are true perfection, so I will have to add them on Spotify haha
Also, how do you rate Pacific Myth?
The fact of Moe (And Chris) and Arif did not record gives me bad feelings :/
his voice is powerful and the guitars are amazing. nuff said
Ive been listening to this son every morning for like 2 weeks now.
Great song to wake u up in the morning
I want to see a nostalgic music video for Mist with a montage of Protest's shenanigans back home.
la escucho desde hace mucho e igual me sigue gustando han avanzado bastante desde su primer disco
2024 is sweeter since this song was written
Man. They keep getting better. Freaking so good they are. Yes.
If the train doesn't arrive in 15 minutes I'm legally allowed to leave.
Henrick Mello underrated comment
I'm drunk it's 1am and this is my jam. long live PTH
Megachu 117 doing God’s work brother
Just Wow... The Simplicity Of The Video Is Amazing And The Way It Is Able To Convey The Story Being Told... I Understand This Song So Much More Now!
I love the rocking chair right at the beginning for some reason. That shot seems to set the whole theme of the video for me, and sends a clear message throughout.
This is the last song my friend Blake sent me on spotify before he died of brain cancer. rip
A worthy outro
"Stepped off the platform and he briefly made,
Yeah, he briefly made the news
It made the news and he made the trains run fifteen minutes late''
Pretty clear. This song is basically about how meaningless suicide actually is. Rody also mentioned that this song is also about celebrating the little things in your life that are worth living for. So it's not that macabre.
This is old as dirt in internet time but I think it's more so about how people don't find the suicide tragic but instead find the inconveniences tragic. Rather than people being sad someone choose to throw themselves in front of a train, they're upset they had to wait 15 minutes.
@@PsionicMonk Yeah, that's my take as well. "Oh what a price to pay" meaning capitalist society places more value on those 15 minutes than someone's life ending. It's as macabre as it gets and rightly so.
Just please stay together forever. There is not a band like you guys and we need you. I just hope that you have a looooooooooong carrier in front of you and that you will be able to go through anything that future is going to throw at you :D
What makes it even more impressive is that it isn't even a solo. Just some insanely sweet riffage.
love from 1:00 to 1:20
The video and lyrics are so much darker than the song sounds
The contrasting nature works perfectly IMO. The whole song is about how meaningless suicide really is and the fact that it's not impactful in any way. When I first heard it and didn't really pay attention to the lyrics, I enjoyed the song, sure (it SOUNDS awesome) but only until after I had listen to the lyrics did it become one of my personal favorites.
The lyrics are just pure poetry. I am analyzing these lyrics for English Literature at the moment for an Oral Essay. We get to choose a song or a poem we like lyrically and explain and analyze the lyrics and the conventions used to write it. This song is just fueled with puns, dramatic irony, sarcasm, contrast, and vivid imagery. Protest The Hero write some of the best lyrics I have ever heard along with Pain Of Salvation and The Dillinger Escape Plan. So good.
@@mauveijn you missed all of the points
I Trully love this guys! They are so important to my history as a musician! Miss Moe and Arif! Love you
AGH Love this song! These guys are amazing!
1:50 really? No one's going to comment on that?
It´s amazing that part!!!!
I mean when he twists his mustache. That's so fucking smooooth
Blues Feldberg I didn't notice that!
Thanks for pointing out!
Dude, that's cause if we gonna comment EVERY SINGLE PART of the instrumentals that's epic, we just gonna spend days here. haha
So...guess who found their new band.
your neighbor
me, and YO MAMA!!!!!! (crowd goes ooohh)
One of the best bands to surface in a LOOOOOONG, LOOOOOOONG time.
"(C'est la vie!) the little things that killed you make you glad to be alive"......... that's some deep poetic stuff right there
I didn't know Seth Rogen had a band
AlbanZap My first reaction when watching this music video for the first time was " Wait what !? Is that Seth Rogen ? " Haha
AlbanZap
....annnnd now I can't unsee. Thanks.
oh fuck off hahahahahahahah
2019 ?
Loved um since i first heard Blindfolds Aside. Glad to hear a new song!! Love u guys, keep rockin!
Your show in Norway was AWSOME! PLEASE COME BACK SOON!
Disease in your jeans!
genes*
That was the joke, man
John Sanabria SHUT UP!
adam wiley Right
adam wiley caaaaalm down.
It's like if Hoobastank all sat down and mastered their instruments
I wish I would have known about these guys sooner! What a voice! :)
Bruh the music is so thought out, that outro is bananas
Am I the only person who thinks Rody Walker looks a bit like a more beefy Aaron Paul?
hahaha, I was just thinking that so I Googled "Rody Walker Aaron Paul" and saw this comment. He definitely does.
Wow, he kind of looks like him, lol
Maybe I'm getting old, but music doesn't hit like this anymore.
That's why they have a cult following haha. True emotions
Loving this band, excellent composition, keep it going boys you are doing us Metal heads a favor!!!
i cant explain how much i love that guitar part, i dont know what it does to my brain, but i love it
2:57 did he really hit that note ?
+Arda Hocic yes, yes he did. and he made it his BITCH
What do you mean? He's hit higher notes than that, he's Rody, he's the best.
Sounds like Muse and Periphery had a love-child
Reid Noble Rody is Spencer's idol.
This group be a member of those who are badly known but so good!!! It is inequitable...
New favorite band right here.
PTH, you are a disgusting band! How dare you destroy most of the metal, including old big name bands musically like that? How is it that, as an example, Dream Theater is such a classic and experienced band, but you, kids, come out and create music that is on every level more interesting? For me, you are the most interesting band ever. I love you so much!
HipsterCore ??
+Riccardo C mathcore();
Ultra Vegetarian Core*.
the lyrics are awesome and the music is awesome too
This songs is full of awesomeness
i used to hate metal music (this isn't an arrow in the knee joke, don't worry), and then I heard termites by Protest The Hero. Then I heard this, and now I LOVE it. My new favourite band.
woah im blown away by this song, start to finish its a masterpiece
Dear god this is mindblowing. If you don't like it from play no.1 give it a few more spins, and you'll adore this piece of art.
Just found out about these guys. Great dynamics and solid vocals. Good video, good song!
I loved the singer and that's why I started listening to them, it's different and unique the way he sings, Everything about this band is unique.
Gotta say Protest the Hero is freaking awesome and I am thankful my friend Scotty told me about them :)!
Plain awesome!
Incredible work.
I love this band, saw them twice live! Great performance and funny musicians
this rody guy is blessed with awesome vocal chords......jesus christ.....
simple yet powerful sets, very moving.
wow. these guys need more views. this some of the best speed metal ive ever heard
This song is insanely good

This song is such a grower... the first few times I heard it I thought protest wern't what they used to be, and now.... bloody hell this is awesome :D
this song is amazing really catchy cool guitar work
One of my favourite songs of all time
