[CalistaSkyBand]

CHECK OUT MY BAND 

[Pikewood]

Just saw these guys live last night. I was so astounded to see the level of faith and maturity in them. The singer JB was praying, and blessing the audience in every song. Its nice to see some friendly guys who just love God and music. What a great group! :)

[ilikeheavymuzic135]

@Pikewood JB's the guitarist

[thepurpleperson33]

Seeing them this saturday in Toronto!! So Excitied!! :D

[hogmidget]

I HEAR BREAKING PUPPIES 3:44 AAAUUUUGGGHHH IT'S IN MY HEAD!!!!!!!!!

[CalistaSkyBand]

CHECK MY BAND OUT! just click the name

[MrImapunkrocker]

these guys and Veil of Maya are coming to Hawaii. Can't fucking wait

[FALCOR1220]

hate when people bitch about screaming... why is it so bad? theyre pouring raw emotion into their music through screaming.. is it that scary to you?

[coltoniscoolyall]

God fuck i hate that screaming but the music is great do they have any instrumental tracks

[theoriginaldent]

@coltoniscoolyall They do a cover of Carol of the Bells, it is the only Christmas song I like listening to =D

[9LivesVsHU]

@coltoniscoolyall Just keep listening to it. You'll get use to it. It get's better. Try Of Mice and Men, We Came As Romans, and Dead By April to get to use to screaming.

[CollinsFilmsV2]

This shit sucks.

[cjskater13]

@CollinsFilmsV2 then dont watch it.

[dreadlordnitsuga2]

I love ABR and i LOVE being an Atheist... i know how to apreciate good music and open mind wheter a band is religious or not.

[HeisW140]

Checking them out in April in Tokyo.

4.11 (wed) Shibuya CLUB QUATTRO

[CRaDiCAL94]

lost both my shoes to this song. great night

[pinkgumboots]

This.Is.Absolute.SHIT!!!

[StrangeNipples]

@pinkgumboots you sir, are incorrect

[Soundofstereos]

@pinkgumboots The only shit thing here is your taste in music.

[Bighoff123]

@dethmetalhead666 yes they do, Chasing the Dragon is about drugs/heroin.

I forget the full name but it's like the Obssice something is about lust/sex. Conposure is about falling in your faith ect.

[castellanoandrew9]

Amazing heard it live on friday

[EnthusiasticGoat]

Their art work looks like Adventure time mixed with Super jail.

[Skignangsta]

SEEING THEM LIVE TONIGHT!

[southsidepopper]

@Skignangsta seeing them live the 23rd

[dethmetalhead666]

this band has no purposes in there lyrics

[JoshDevoursRainbows]

@dethmetalhead666 Listen to 'Composure'

[chrispaquette]

@dethmetalhead666 you have no purpose in life. Join the army

[S00praGuitarbr00tal]

@dethmetalhead666 well, considering your name, with a "666" in it means you listen to demonic metal. which pretty much just screams, "i hate you god" in an elaborate form, or screams something like, "ill kill you bitch!" there is no meaning in the lyrics of most metal bands other than sex and what i just said. but your completely wrong here bro, you didnt do any digging around did you? didnt put any thought into it all all? this band has really elaborate meanings, so next time think a little.

[metalmouth317]

Gah this was soooo good live.

[MannequinMeOfficial]

Yall should check us out if you like ABR!

Just click on my profile to check out the teasers we got up, links to the facebook pages areup on there also :D

[burrowsintheground]

abr is the best metal band period. but this album.....eh not even close to the caliber of messengers

[tatorxchip]

Thank God for hardcore christian bands(; 

[Fierran123]

Why so many comments mentioning religion? "I'm atheist but I love this" Religion shouldn't play any role in what music you listen to -.-

[quinnenno5]

Feb 18th? house of blues? chicago? i think so.

[rrgm0000]

@quinnenno5 u should i just went saterday it was the best cocert ever =)

[TheJacob1131]

@quinnenno5 Feb.10th? Portland Or.? I think so, :)

[Labirint]

when i'll go to gods of metal i'll do a lot of headbaging!



[Wicked2v2]

I am an atheist.. but these guys are so fucking amazing.

[XDarkxShine]

I like how every timei go to a ABR video there's something about Suicide Silence dominating these guys haha:D

[Skollnhogg]

@1:59 ..........fanfuckingtastic!!!!­!!

[jrich23own]

I just got huge chills down my spine!! Im glad they are installing some church melodies and it works sooo well

[1Kill3rTOXiC1]

Good song but suicide silence you only live once destroys this song its way heavier and is actually heavy metal. This is like some hardcore stuff. Good song good band but suicide silence prevails in my book.

[metallicman711]

@1Kill3rTOXiC1 Heavier does not always mean better. SS chugs all the way through their songs, while ABR actually has some melody. It's actually a bit of a stupid contest, hardcore vs death metal, they're nothing alike.

[popyohomie]

Best album yet. They continue to evolve as musicians, and surprise us all.

[metalcoreguy35]

This song is 1000x better than suicide silence's you only live once. Abr will avenge Aild. This band is playing like an hour away from my house Sat. But I can't go :(. Also, the solo to this song makes me very happy I love it

[vXAnnihilation]

@metalcoreguy35 Well I saw these guys live and HOLY SHIT THEY WERE FUCKING AMAZING! But Suicide Silence kicks ass.

[Heartglass22]

we run and run and run...

[Xenthoz]

Wow, they're more open about their faith than I previously thought. Props.

[drummerboy0311]

Their new album is amazing.

[mrstealyogirl2012]

666,066 viewer??pheeeew ,thank god ididnt watch this 600 views later xDD

[Darkdarren12]

Their old stuff was much better. This is a good song of praise, but not a good ABR song.

[samuki1992]

3:52 min ago i was an atheist

[AhhDumArr]

@samuki1992 And you still are.

[samuki1992]

@AhhDumArr yes '-'

[Soundofstereos]

@samuki1992 This band or their music both have nothing to do with religion. They even stated that in an interview.

Their beliefs are separate. I'm an Atheist, and ABR is my favourite band. Problem?

[ZinfinityX]

That amount of time you were the same person aiming for attention.

[samuki1992]

@ZinfinityX yeah? so what?

[Saberoith]

@samuki1992 3:52 Still an Atheist, but I will respect your beliefs if you respect my lack of.

[samuki1992]

@Saberoith i respect ;D but i'm not lying when i say ABR changed my ways of seeing things...

[drummerboy0311]

When I first heard they were coming out with a new album, I didn't think it would of been good at all. I was most certainly wrong..

[d3adlydr3am3r]

This is worship.

[zzzzWendlandzzzz]

Feb 25. SA!

[whodatnation0928]

just heard about this band and they r fuckin EPIC..

[jordonjdubdowney]

@whodatnation0928 it seems improper to use the word fuck towards a christian band....

[g540flip]

Sick song Man !

[wouterlegomaster746]

Fking nice

[Raguirre777]

This song and Pangea are so heavy and awesome from this album. Long live ABR!!!

[yehonathan]

ooooo OOOOOO oooO oooooo OOO ooooo OOOO oooo OOooo \o/

[ajor117]

They opened with this Sunday night. When it got to about 0:47... Shit was fucking epic.

[chaaarrrliiieee]

I heard this band is a Christian band. Is this true? I just want to confirm it, just curious.

[IRTHAMASTERCHEIF]

@chaaarrrliiieee yes and they r amazing 

[faceheadunderscorer1]

@chaaarrrliiieee yes, but Christianity is a lifestyle.

[fresh81steez]

yes,they openly talk about Christ /God in their songs,and theres a few interviews of the lead singer and his relationship with jesus Christ on youtube

[tgraul3]

Amazing album and band! "All you are is all we want"!!

[IRTHAMASTERCHEIF]

i listen to this song every time i play minecraft



[elderath88]

Dallas soon!



[SuperBIGBOY109]

The dislike bar is the size of my dick.

[FicticiousAnimation]

These guys are just kick ass. This is my favorite band.

[huey00045]

Seeing them on the 23rd can't wait?

[Bogandrummer]

a guy had this pumping in his car with the windows rolled down and for some reason i felt special that i could sing along

[Readysetowned1]

2:10 gave me chills, 2:17 i started shaking a bit, 2:30 d>O<b HELL YES ABR!!! <3

[Readysetowned1]

@mussolinitho Tell them that, we'll pray for you ;)

[MegaBones123456]

@mussolinitho Shame on you

[jb0Ogi3]

I went into Target and went to the Cd's, saw Leveler, it was the last copy left. I was like....hmmm I've heard ABR is pretty good I'll buy it. THANK GOD I DID DAMN DOES THIS ALBUM OWN! 2:30 on this song destroys.

[KonaBlendz]

Favorite part...1:43 and the rest of the song

[BMTH43V3R]

The beginning makes me wanna throw my cat out the window. This song is so good!

[faceheadunderscorer1]

@BMTH43V3R If you're throwing you cat out the window you're obviously listening to a different song, because we all know cats are super cuddly and cute.

[tommierooney123]

Wooh!!! Thumbs up if your not supposed to listen to heavy metal yet cuz your too old, but you think it's too epic to not be listened too!

Like me, I am just 10...

[CiderSpoonz]

@tommierooney123 You're never too young or old to listen to some real music..

[amal2345]

0:59 - howard wolowitz on bass !!

[cptmiche]

@MethSmoke420 they are christian, but when i went to see them they didn't speak a word about god.

[lazerBAR]

@cptmiche because they arent annoying christians.

[BornOfABR]

Calgary, Febuary 13th. PUMPED.

[MegaMexican562]

@KonaBlendz you see I have pol backing me up.

[drewloveschainsaws]

Anyone else wanna flip cars?

[AbeGoesHam]

1:59

[AbeGoesHam]

1:59

[MegaMexican562]

Why are you guys talking about jizzing in your pants on a Christian song? What's wrong w/ you guys?

[KonaBlendz]

@MegaMexican562 I doubt this song is "Christian."

[tetranode0]

@KonaBlendz it is

[TheFeeez21]

@KonaBlendz it is

[BabyJoker901]

61 ppl need 2 open their fuhken ears and listen!

[kirputnik]

61 people need to be punched in the dick

[TheZabuki]

Even if i'm atheist, this groups is fucking awesome !

[mattbrewer2008]

@TheZabuki couldnt agree more!!

[SelfRevolution37]

@TheZabuki shut up you're not an aetheist. you don't know anything about science. everyone who likes this band is 19. you probably haven't read three book about science

[TheZabuki]

@SelfRevolution37 Keep cool man :) why want you to argue ?

[PickleRadio]

@SelfRevolution37

man why are you such an ignorant prick that you have to start a fight with a stranger ?

how do you know what he knows about science ?

" you probably haven't read three books about science"

when you say probably it makes you sound like a pathetic loser who's trying to pick a fight with somebody they don't know by taking random stabs in the dark.

[metallicman711]

@SelfRevolution37 Pray tell, what does science have to do with atheism? An atheist is someone who does not believe in any god or deity, and (except for some buddhists, who are allowed to not believe in their deity but still perform the rituals and meditation etc. I think it's buddhism correct me if I'm wrong) do not follow any sort of religion. Reading books about science has nothing to do with it. Also, I like this band, and I'm not 19. Your argument is invalid.

[UpperCuttingAGiraffe]

Penis on the house..

[Aaarrrggghhification]

Epic song

[metalirocz28]

Seeing them on their first date the 13th!!

[TheSoverein]

there is no before, there is no after, there is only.... August Burns Red....

[penguins3231]

skyscrapers, earthmovers, ground breakers, cookie crumblers.

-santa claus and megatron

[smokesidized]

@penguins3231 LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL

[lolwut31]

@penguins3231 Lmao..

[1331paintball]

Thumbs up if you hate the new noise it makes when you like something

[rsnooblets123]

@1331paintball the new noise for the thumbs down sounds better

[mremmett500]

i headbang hard to this

[slomomlolz]

I'm seeing them on the 18th. :D

[Jimbengoz]

i love the lyrics

[omegarune2]

This is great; one of the harder songs from ABR to understand, even with the words on my screen, however

[jman311420]

Metal

[MK212074]

The fact that this band does label themselves as Christian makes me respect them even more..just knowing that the dudes I am listening to believe in the same stuff I do makes me enjoy the music more.

[yeaadollface]

I keep this ish on repeat <3

[lolwut31]

why do bands feel the need to label themselves as "christian" .... leave your fucking religion to yourself, 80% of fucking america is christian, nobody gives a fuck what you guys believe in. We care about your music.

[MrJuicyxJ]

@lolwut31 Why do you care what other people label themselves? Are you not happy with your own life that you have to go around and criticize others. Your negativity is what's wrong with this world.

[holdbacknothing]

@lolwut31 If you cared about the music, you'd care about the band.

[JarodCoomer]

Because being a christian band OBVIOUSLY makes you a pussy. *rolls eyes*

[tonger2116]

Unicorns and rainbows....that is all.

[SomeDayisEveryDay]

I used to like this band until I found out they are a chrstian band. fuck that shit. pussies.

[ThePikpikcarrot]

@SomeDayisEveryDay You would really stop listening to a band because they are Christian?

[moonwalker361]

I remember when I thought that The Devil Wears Prada was the only good Christian band. Man... I was wrong.

[MyRichardLong]

ABR are on a level of their own!

[Hisroyaljazzness]

Is it me or is every band signed by Solid State Records amazing?

[Mrthomasje92]

this shit is still one of the best

[Mrthomasje92]

omg

[MedinasGuitar]

Im not a fan of Hardcore Breakdownish music...but now these guys are an execption :)

[skfrtc]

@MedinasGuitar I'm with you :)

[shakeeyouraas]

shakeeyouraas . tumblr . com/ FOLLOW ME

[atvfreak3]

Let me just say that your music has changed my life tremendously in an amazing way. Your lyrics speak to me in so many different ways. I don't know how many times I've listened to this album. This is truly inspiring and I'm so glad that you guys came together. There is not one song that I dislike at all. I was a fan of you guys before and after this album came out it's safe to say that this album is my favourite of the year, possibly the decade, and you guys have to be my favourite band. Thanks

[finissa]

@atvfreak3 I find your comment amusing, as I can hardly even distinguish the lyrics being sung. That's metal, though. LOVE IT!

[GaviliusSC2]

this song is literally the greatest song i've ever heard

ABR is fucking amazing

RIP Redd

[Pyrolion09]

@GaviliusSC2 Lol, someone actually knows how they got their name

[GaviliusSC2]

@Pyrolion09 Yup, I have the newspaper article pinned in my room. :D

[delfuegoful]

This makes me happy in the pants

[RejectedPimps]

Gonna See them in February Can't fuckin wait

[CrusaderofLight1]

Makes me think about how powerful the Roman Empire really was :)

[francesco461]

@CrusaderofLight1 i disagree, and i don't respect your opinion.

[ToxicSnowmen]

@CrusaderofLight1 But they fell bra, because dem Trojan condoms were too much for 'em.
