Protest the Hero - Bloodmeat (high quality)

[williamiswilliam1]

3:30 to the end is fucking epic

[PLmafios01]

His voice sounds like he was the father of Fagstin Gayber.

Overally not comparable though.

Awesomeness \m/

[alexpadilla6366]

@DamoGleaso a douche huh? i bet lucifer can kick your ass :\

[rcatrino]

@DamoGleaso You yould listen to IPod while fighting Lucifer? AWESOME!

[gaara1546]

Bst part is 2:37- 3:26

[bobjoemoe8]

@gaara1546 u do notice your time frame goes backwords right?

[gaara1546]

@bobjoemoe8 You gotta cry about everything?

[bobjoemoe8]

his voice is so weird compared to how he looks lol

[AngeloKain]

@bobjoemoe8 hehehehehe i think that his voice is great but he looks like a gay hehehehehehhehehe

[gunslinger713]

FUcking protest the hero motherfuckers!

[suraj9849]

mfkr mind fukn.

[longbowfosho]

Having "high quality" in the title is pretty misleading.

[Coonak]

@longbowfosho

In 2007 when I added the vid, this was high quality.

I'll be sure to change the title when I give a shit.

[longbowfosho]

@Coonak The point: you missed it. I wasn't referring to the visual quality at all.

[dmcgraye]

@longbowfosho fail, by any definition of quality other than the most selectively ignorant, this is high quality. If you knew anything about metal you'd know what a specialized and well-honed craft they have

[abi999]

@Coonak lmaoo nice comeback

[alexpadilla6366]

@Coonak that made me smile and piss a liltle :\

[crand123]

@longbowfosho pretty high quality for a youtube video. If you want higher quality than this, use a source other than youtube.

[plaguedguy85]

people actually like his voice huh? wht have we come to? circus metal?! lol wtvr

[Deathfrance]

@plaguedguy85

He has an excellent range. High voices in metal are nothing new (hai2u Iron Maiden). He also growls decently, although that super low growling at the end is actually the bassist who completely rapes face.

[TheSupermatrix323]

the bassist at 2:09 looks freakin hilarious

[hcb1515]

Awsome pice of art....

[fightingforlacy]

it sounds like a hardcore musical. fukn awesome.

[ashay1291]

bassie \m/ !!!! ftw !

[hyperdrummingskater]

mad skills

[levitucusninja7]

i freaking love this band

[j00suckip00n]

WOOT Ik hou van deze jongens

[PsychoticSuperStar]

I think that this singer, R.E.M.'s singer, and Cold War Kids's singers should all have a dance off. They all have amazingly wierd yet awesome dances. This isn't an insult just a comment.

[robster71cr]

these guys symbolise everything great about mathcore! fucking insane!!!

[donkashane94]

@robster71cr your gay just because you said mathcore

[robster71cr]

@donkashane94 but they are mathcore...... how does that make me gay? its like saying a black person is black..... or a bird is a bird. just stating the fact dude. no needf to act like a little bitch over the internet

[donkashane94]

@robster71cr no they are not "mathcore", "mathcore" is a retarted sounding genre that the little scene kids made up. its all metal. just call it metal.

[robster71cr]

@donkashane94 but metal isnt a category itself... it goes metalcore, heavy metal, nu metal, MATHCORE, etc etc . deal with the facts man jeeez

[iamfb]

@donkashane94 you got it wrong man, there is mathcore. so many bands around, that utilize mathematics in music, or even classical music used it. get real.

[pigboy0000]

fail

[The34zyD]

Interesting characters we have here. The vocalist has a funky looking mop beard (but his vocals are still crazy), the drummer has these awesome dreadlocks (and his drumming is awesome too), the bassist I think is an Iranian named Arif (he's freakin amazing), the rythem guitarist looks like the cowardly lion(I'm sorry, but he's still amazing too), and the lead guitarist... umm, I don't know. He's cool too though. :) I heard this band was also based on Greek mythology, but I don't know.

[marcianerto]

Joder que temazooooooooo!!!!

[SquigglehhOctopuss]

ROFL THEY LOOK LIKE A BUNCH OF HOBOS TEARING UP A GARAGE.

... Very talented hobos. I love 'em.

[kcorradmada]

I liked the band more before I saw what they looked like, his voice doesn't suit his appearance lol.

[BaileyLush]

Fucking Google messed up Youtube...

[The34zyD]

yeah, the bassist is amazing.

[jameshashed]

dos the lead singer have a hello kitty shirt on?

[ArizonaDark]

Anyone know if he sings in a falsetto? I can't tell, but that's the only way I can hit those notes.

[irvy123]

@ArizonaDark Nah, only sometimes (like in the "Genghis Khan is upon us..." part), but he mostly sings in his chest voice. He's just got a really amazing voice.

[BrokenPerception]

@ArizonaDark

He does use it alot, not as much on Fortress as on Kezia, but still. He has a ridiculous range in his chest voice as well. I'm almost positive he's had some form of classical training.

[mattballin21]

Iron Maiden is the definition of heavy metal. we all know that.

but i do find myself listening to these guys more then maiden now a days

[GrizzlyXGrins]

1:45 , where the FUCK did he jump into, a fucking black hole. Anyway I love this band.

[andythebest123]

@GrizzlyXGrins oh my god didn't notice that at all xD their videos are so fuckin hilarious

[GrizzlyXGrins]

@andythebest123 I love them but their vocalist's stage presence is painful. II don't support dancing feminine while singing XD lmao.

[plec14]

these r taking maidens style to the next level

(thats how i look at it)

[AgowTisro]

I don't see why you got a thumbs down, I can see where you're hearing that. I hear a bit of Maiden in the guitars especially. I think if Maiden were Mathcore, they'd be this band =P. But of course, these guys got nothing on Iron Maiden. =)

[squirrelslayer14]

this song is boss

[S4Overwin]

PtH is so underrated. Great song.

[Blackheart11249]

Underrated is an understatement. lol

[freddles88]

fuckin' sick!!!!!!

[chechoguitar112]

they are great... i was getting tired of this fuckin' tuned-in-C metalcore... they are creating new music for sure..

[trexilll]

Out of all the bands I've ever heard, these guys are without a doubt the most underrated. Their creative talent is absolutely stunning and the ability to blend pure chaos into a four minute long piece of fucking art that shreds your perception of society into unrecognizable shambles and assaults your ears with awesomeness... fucking wow dude

No band compares side-by-side to these guys. They're not my favorite, but they're the best I've ever heard.

[ruschki]

noob

[trexilll]

troll

[YOWHATTHEHELLUP71]

best part 0:00 to 3:53

[metallica2014]

Hah. Your halairious. Very true though.

[phreezerburne]

@YOWHATTHEHELLUP71 BUT THATS THE WHOLE SONG!!! ohh i gets it!!!

[YOWHATTHEHELLUP71]

They're due for a new album.

[aCleverScreenName]

1:41 Best part :]

[DoubleAzn]

He has like 10 different voices haha

[GHWT002]

LOVE IT!!!

[BADBOY131]

2:04 to 2:21 is my favorite part omg lol

[PunkBase666]

maybe these guitarists sucks?... NOOOOOO WAYYYYY!!!

[PencilOverlord]

this song is soo beast.

[CamButler]

Best band out there.

[BFMVdrummer]

Easily.

[CamButler]

I used to like Avenged Sevenfold, back before they went mainstream, became a parody of themselves, and forgot how to write interesting music.

[guitarrugbyskate]

hey, screw you man, a7x is amazing

[apkryptos]

Before city of evil, they were a pretty good metalcore band with catchy lyrics.

After that... they became what i would call a Gay hardrock/metal band.

[Burkefolk]

their like a progressive metal band. they still have elements of hardcore in thire instrumentals, especially in their rythm guitar riffs, and their harmonies. they's still pretty bad ass. i know i can't play half of thir stuff

[Burkefolk]

no, their not amazing, they're just popular. they have distorted guitars and false dark themes, making the illusion of metal or intensity, but they're only fooling themselfs.

[coulrophobia0o0o3]

r u talking about protest the hero

[AstroBoy55555]

@Burkefolk Regardless of whether you're talking about protest the hero or avenged sevenfold you're wrong. I'm gonna guess you were talking about avenged and say this: They actually are amazing. They're very good live, they have stage presence, the band members actually aren't douchebags, each member can both sing, scream, and play multiple instruments, and they write good music. Stop being stupid.

[BloodReverence]

A Little Piece of Heaven is the only song I liked on the new album. That's only because it's lyrics and concept is deliciously morbid.

[2SHEA]

whoa!... that's some bassist that got there

[CcGameDKR]

Yeah, Arif is probably one of the best bassist around these days. Though, you should check out Between the Buried and Me's bassist as well if you haven't already. He's pretty sick, and perhaps even better than Arif.

[1223dude1223]

yes musicly the bassist from btbam may be better, but arif is just amzing in every way. like the guy is lyricial genious has a the goofyest stage moves, is fucking halarious and he can play some of the coolest bass riffs ever.

[jkub2008]

I saw this band in the summer at my local music festival. it was kind of amazing.

[BADBOY131]

O....M.....G!!!! this is an epic band. guitars: wow. bassist: wow drummer:WTF (in a good way and singer: amazing. he presents himself like he's maniacal (how he walks around, facial expressions) and his voice matches it well lol. this is my new favorite song, and another band i cant stop listenin to

[DjBlindShadows]

The sexual tension in this video is fucking thick! :D

[BFMVdrummer]

Does anyone know how Arif gets his vocals in the low, growly voice when they're saying "We will crush them all like vermain."?

[CamButler]

THat's Rody. Arif did the growls on previous albums, but Rody does it all himself on Fortress, which is super impressive, and awesome since he's great at it. To do it, you breathe out hot air slowly over your throat and go as deep as possible with your vocal chords, below the adam's apple, and try to lengthen your throat and mouth out.

[ShredAndSkate69]

tim did some growls too

[BFMVdrummer]

Wow. I thought I saw Arif screaming with him in the end, and when they do it like, their guitarist does the growls. Rody's amazing, and thanks for the help.

[BFMVdrummer]

I fucking love 1:55

[paralasalud]

so effin' talented

[BaileyLush]

3:31 - It's amazing how much the simple things in songs kick ass:) Arifs little bass adornments to thier songs always makes them that much more badass! I can't wait to see them again! Literally, i'm going to go insaneO_o!

[BFMVdrummer]

Da da da-da, da da-dada OHHHH.

[Killcows]

Correction, da da dada, da da da, dadada OHHHHHHHH. =D

[grayzbeardz]

i'm fucking speechless.....

[Aririnkaji]

Best. Shit. Ever.

[blockaman]

dont kill me for this, but i think the singer sounds a tad like bruce dickinson form iron maiden on the first verse

[zevvay]

i dont know how you see that but y would anyone get mad at you for saying that bruce dikinsens an amazing singer, if you said he sounded like joe jonas or some fag like that then there would be reason to kill you:p

[blockaman]

just the vocal rage and ability, just remind sme of some of the iron maiden songs, and i dunno, people get annoyed and start arguing for stupid things on youtube sometimes, just covering my back

[aidenatreyutommy]

i dunno why anyone would kill you for that i mean i don't see whatyour talking abt but thats just me also i would take that as a compliment

[zevvay]

rody dances RLY fucking weird>_> and its not a candian or a white person thing cuz im both of those and i dont dance that weirdXD

[yourno1]

omfg this song is EPIC!!!!!! my favourite by PTH personally.

is one of them wearing a SiKTh t-shirt? coz that is also ridiculously cool

[ZekerOneMusic]

That breakdown at the end is fucking epic.

WE WILL CRUSH THEM ALL LIKE VERMIN!!

Gets me SO fucking pumped!

[xNoTriggerx]

The singer seems feminine xD lol hes cool though

[JebusHimself]

What, with his weird beard and all? Compensating, lol. Although his voice can go to either end of a fucking huge spectrum, so...

[xNoTriggerx]

i was talking about how he moves around

[brendo5555]

I agree they aint good live i love their studio shit but man their singer acts like a fag lol

[zevvay]

my friend saw these guys and didnt even know who they were... i wanted to kill him>_>

[sunshinemango101]

Well he doesn't deserve to listen to some of the top music today. xD

[seamusmceagan]

hah Roddy looks like Hitler

[danomitelive]

Bloodmeat 3:30. Canadians ROCK!!!

[zevvay]

couldnt agree more:D (lol im canadian:p)

[XXXpoolboyXXX]

jesus christ, those guitarist RIP up those guitars, In a good way though.

[lespaulspecial9]

3:30

[GHWTVideos]

1:03-1:22 THE BEST:)

[Lostinfewminds]

love the 1:34 - 1:53 part =D

[mrturner69]

too bad they suck ass live. this is so good

[headshotkillz]

yea i know right? but they sound good recorded, so im not complaining haha

[NocturnalXS]

I haven't seen them since after the Kezia release. They must have gotten worse or something cause they were solid the few times I have seen them.

[MyEggIsBoiled]

Well I'd say you got the real deal my friend :)

[tnpan]

I just can't get over how awesome that shreik at 0:36 is.

[sooffiig]

what's the shit he screams before the bomb explodes??! i wanna learn it "chuk chuck chak chuchakak chak chak"

[bsilver887]

you buy their live cd?

got mine signed :D

[ksefreak]

i see no problem in comparing this band to sikth, they are quite similar if you ask me

[berserkerich]

Metal + Ghengis Khan = Hardcore.

[System409]

I like that, I'm using it in future :D

[Maxxorz12]

The singer seems to get a bit to in to the song lol, but its an enjoyable performance. cool song.

[KeySour]

HEADS WILL ROLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!

[LHat99zz]

FUCK YEA AHHHHH THIS GETS ME PUMPED

[bbloveful]

FUCK YEAH!! I KNOW IT DOES!!!

[mj178231]

So by that fallacious logic, I could say that Duran Duran or lady gaga is just as good as Mozart or Beethoven, they're just different? Sometimes its good to compare when one band is obviously better. Maybe this is not the situation, but you can't deny that it is sometimes the case

[jiffyjiffyjiffyjiff]

fuck yeah, i love song.

[teholdgreg]

fail face? Nice spelling, and you can't compare. It's called balance, it's like comparing COD4 to Halo 3 you can't, they're wayy too different, it needs to be something similar. So work on your spelling, if you "don't care", then why comment? and the name is "teholdgreg" not "the" Thanks :)

[boogeroos]

I like them, but sikth is better ;]

[teholdgreg]

Comparing them to Sikth is like comparing Lamb of God to Megadeth, you can't do it. So lolz @ your fail.

[Esperanzafleet69]

AWESOME.... TOTALLY AWESOME

[Max8Jizzy]

The two guitarists are fast and brutal...the way I like it!

[rs3nik]

whats with rody's "mohawk"

[jimmypageforprez]

He reminds me of Bruce Dickinson in how much range he has and how high he can go

[BloodReverence]

he doesn't go even half as high as bruce.

[CaptainKyrk]

Do I spot Luke wearing a SikTh shirt?

[CaptainKyrk]

Nocturne sounds like PTH, Midheaven not so much.

[JurassicPurk]

don't know about the rest of you but when i hear a song about genghis khan i wish the video was about genghis khan. but anyway this is just about my favorite song ever.

[CaptainKyrk]

Also to the people saying PtH are before there time, they are not. PTH is one of my favorite bands, but check out SikTh. Sound a lot like Protest.

[chinchin6sic6]

They sound KINDA like Protest, but they're good nontheless. You can also check out The Human Abstract for great PTH sound-alikes.

[CaptainKyrk]

Rody's emo hair looks retarded but the sideburns/beard more than make up for it.

[xxViSe]

great band

PRO (and a lil drunk) LIVE

and to the haters on this comment board

thumbs up or gtfo

like rly we dont troll your T.I. videos and point out the spelling and grammar "mistakes"

so fuck off AIIGHT!?

[AstroBoy55555]

OK the thing at 1:54 was really cool.

[raul85]

this is badass dude

[laa97]

Love the band and love the song, but this video sucks. I mean really. It's them playing for four minutes. I love them but crhist, couldnt work a little harder on this?

[Hybridv9]

the guitarists are sick, i dont mind watching em shred for 4 minutes

[onemanarmyjr]

Dude are you stupid. Bands like this deserve to have music video's that just show them playing they're music. Not everyone likes My Chemical Romance video's, fagget.

[laa97]

Hahahaha, I love how you assumed that I'm a MCR-loving 'fagget' because I didn't like the music video. Did I say I like the band less because of it? Hells no. This is an awesome song, I'd just rather it be something a little more creative. MCR is a pile of shit, but I suppose what you'd rather label me as works too.

[fallaway6554]

Lulz @ Rody's hair.

[teholdgreg]

1:23 - 1:45

[kittenen]

Just recently starting getting into these guys. They're great because they take the elements of scream-o and hardcore that I love (the musical talent and generally badassary) and leave out the obnoxious parts (the screeching) and replace it with someone with vocal talent!

[HaroldFeldberg]

Hell yeah bruz!

I first heard Bloodmeat about a year and a half ago, and I've been into them ever since.

I love how it's Hardcore/Progressive/Math/lil' bit O funk

[andravio]

I LOVE 3:32 until 3:48 awsm(y)

[fLKommotioN]

so much argument on this video. it's awesome. but seriously, stfu. because if you think these guys are bad, that's a matter of taste, and no one cares about your taste. they're clearly not bad as far as talent, anyways. point is this: this is complex music, not the most complex, but more than a lot. if you don't like that sound, go back to whatever you listen to. that's fine. i don't care. no one does, until you push it upon them, or tell them what they listen to sucks. mkay? mkay.

[DestructionReaction]

A truely talanted band.

[knailed]

La-z-boy recline!

[Divinitron]

Guys get carbon gun molds an c4 bullets yet get it dun the worldwidw 10 minute war

[Y4gami]

......nah

[ShatteredToDust]

i like the shirt rode the chode is wearing, hello kitty haha

[bennythecyclops]

i love his voice!

[dbzupper]

sammyboi... that was great... I couldn't have said that any better lol

[littledrummerboy989]

word. The whole "come on" , generic breakdown thing also describes atreyu perfectly.

[gyrofanclub]

Im not sure if i like these guys or not. They are all incredibly talented but there is something about them that i just dont really care for...

[littledrummerboy989]

they're very operatic. that could have something to do with it. took a while for me to get used to it, but now i love them

[NightmareBThyName]

what kind of ibanez is the guitarist using?

[melodicdestruction]

is one of the guitarists wearing a sikth shirt?! awesome.

[hopscotchbulletdodge]

these guys melt your faces. there not above there time who are you to say whats hip and whats not. These guys shreeeeeddder bob for shhhhooooooore

[Pandiemonium]

They're way ahead of their time. Today's all about shitty hardcore, like BMTH. And even worse, garbage like A Day To Remember, Escape The Fate, A Skylit Drive, that tasteless crap. Protest The Hero is complex, technical, and VERY tight. You don't see that anywhere else nowadays.
