[spikesonthebrain]

This is the most Badass video on youtube.

[GoodMarijuanaStrains]

Their music goes great with any video

[Nunes123321]

I want to play Ace Combat now hahahah

[FlyingBoxHead]

Driving down the back roads of the UK early in the morning just for fun,the morning fog layer adding to the moment.Listening to this as I go,simply perfect.

[keepskatingryan]

I love how siked he is at the end!!! makes me smile!!:)

[starwarspunk]

listening to the song without the background noise just... doesn't feel right.

[xfreakmagnitx]

i think the background noise gives this song another layer of sounds and makes it sound even cooler :)

[S1W2E3D]

life is so cool

[skapunkarmy]

is there dialogue going on in the background from this movie or am i just super stoned?

[IcyScythe]

@skapunkarmy haha ya there is, from the documentary or whatever this is ripped from

[DarkEskemo]

@IcyScythe from a documentary on Red Flag opps

[tjhghghjh]

Why the hell is there other music in the background? Its ruining this song.

[IcyScythe]

This band is seriously the CHILLEST BAND ON EARTH.

[freeribs]

Pinback-A perfect combination of: Bass, Vocals, And Weed

[Canalterror]

@freeribs nicely said, and so fucking true

[IcyScythe]

1:35 pretty amazing they can turn on a dime like that.

[IcyScythe]

so chill

[BrownskinHaole]

i like how im instantly at ease

[jpnkc74]

Really? someone disliked this?? What are they jihad terrorists, or some kind of crazy freak? This here is good stuff!

[caspapin]

if somehow we could get rid of those tense strings in the background this would be perfect.

[johnbowman03]

If you put on a decent set of headphones you can totally hear the movie's theme music playing in the background... kind of distracting, but still a killer tune!

[FJvoodoo]

EXCELLENT!!! Graceful, does relax you watching it. Pilots, fun stuff, good job and glad you guys are on our side.. Keep the faith no matter what, endure the rough times we are in, as this too will eventually end.

[Flysymphony99]

Awesome song. Love Pinback, The video looks kinda retarded when it shows the inside of the cockpit during a dogfight with all the avionics off. But kick ass song.

[Silvade14]

It isn't post-rock. but this song reminds me of the genre.

Pinback is awesome :')

[Hotpockets311]

this song and video is the bees knees!!!!!!!!!

[dudegotskills]

I want to be a fighter pilot now.

[andyperkins99]

Amazing the world we live in

[canes185]

ugh wish the video sound wasn't so loud! wtf!

[NinjaChicken831]

This... is amazing. I love it. With the fighters in the video, and the fact that you can hear them, and the pilots talking. It's just... my jar dropped...

[RaleighG300]

they are finally working on a new album....I thought they had went MIA too!

[homicidalsoldier2006]

this is truly amazing. and my brother made this. if you dont believe me, he will comment, i demand thumbs up NOW! :)

[caustikbt]

seeking the metal band, Byzantine, I stumbled on this and fell into a wonderful trance, im liking this

[gavquinn]

@caustikbt I had never heard bass playing like that before, it's lovely

[staphinfection]

Pinback and macho military bonerods do not mix...

[unmpo20]

@staphinfection Pinback and flying do however

[staphinfection]

@unmpo20 Yeah, you got me there....  I guess somehow Pinback makes everything good. Even the military.

[superxtwin]

hé gnié

[mduckworth]

byzantine was my favourite civilisation on age of empires 2

[ThePopeofTipolee]

Goths ftw, they could rape and pillage

[blushmemucho93]

yes 1.:50 is very nice rhythm beat etc.

just never understand the message if there even is one. I guess the sound will compensate for now.

[fumatador]

+++++++++++++pro

[confinedspace2006]

ignore these uber-critical types, this is a job well done!

[gattoevolpe]

Great song, great vid. but 2:13 All off

[gattoevolpe]

1:20 avionics off ?

[prettyfly42192]

This video is very good. Love whats going on and the music.

[chompthis12]

1:50 is the best part. So chill

[ignignokt16]

gives goosebumps

[Brizbags]

yeah man, stole the words out of my mouth

[homicidalsoldier2006]

WOOO my brother made this video! haha thumb me down and you shall get deleted :)! w0000000t sick vid man. u need to make some more though bro and i'll make a LFS one or something :P safe dev x

[MacadamiaNuttt]

pinback <3

[MeganMoshpit]

haha true

[dasgemuse]

it is now possible (thanks to Pinback)  to get high off of music.

[badge1332]

no man u dont no...... music connects the universe we wer fucking sung into creation (im jus another guy saying his piece tho... but i can go into trances only with music cept for the rare moment or when im doing stuff to go into trances) and i get high all over my body and my heart feels like its bleeding and my third eye like.... beams out with radiating tingles sooo ya theres tons of other good stuff

[dasgemuse]

your third eye (pineal gland) does excrete the most powerful hallucinogen known to man. (DMT) (dreams) and DMT also connects every person in the universe together when ever you sleep at night. your dreams are your brains interpritation of your subconcious mind connecting to the subconcious mind of the rest of the universe.

[joydivisionthecure]

wow... nicely said

[shitsucks08]

It has been possible for as long as music has existed; you're just too close-minded to accept anything else.

[dasgemuse]

you calling me colse-minded makes me laugh. seriously i laughed!! you need to take a look at your own life and find out more about your self. you will in the process realize you shouldn't talk shit about people you dont know or anyone for that matter and just chill.......

[shitsucks08]

I'm glad you found it funny, thanks ;]

[zeratti]

@dasgemuse nah it was possible since deftones began singing, and even more when chino began his side project team sleep so plz listen a little more music you can find even more "high off" music if you search

[Predator321]

@dasgemuse haha im high right now off of it :)

[Shaitan2503]

@dasgemuse It has been possible for ages, Pink Floyd is one example...

[DyingxWish92]

@dasgemuse Thats been possible since the beatles my friend.

[mgs0893]

@dasgemuse Haha that's been possible for a long time, bro

[metallicarocks66]

@dasgemuse i agree

[cearaham]

@dasgemuse i'm pretty damg sure :) now that's music.

[pimentdesiles]

@dasgemuse I totally agree. Actually, I can't agree more.

[flipphazer]

Is there an undertone of relationship in the lyrics as well? It seems to me like its mixing anti war with the confusion of trying to end up with somone...the push and pull of not being allowed to ask what to do but having your actions judged...being the bad guy to fit their needs

[nachoboi858]

i wanna become a pilot for the navy when i grow up :D

[zackjmack]

One more clue for all you extremely intelligent people out there. The Byzantine empire is basically another name for the Roman empire which was categorically anti-Semitic. The footage you're watching is a semblance of the senseless and horrific bombing of innocent people by the Israeli state. Watch the news and read history, assholes. You don't even understand what you're listening to. Go ahead, continue burying your heads in the sand. While innocent children are buried daily.

[franchisepeat]

no need to get high and mighty bud.

I am very interested in what you're saying though. I always want to understand things better... namely lyrics.

[StAndrewsXLII]

What do Israel terrorist bombing have anything to do with a Red Flag exercise in Las Vegas? This is just a simulated dog fight between F-16s and an F-15s with a Pinback song in the background.

[noworriesfanclub]

@zackmagic: nice try but no, byzantium was actually a greek cityst that was taken over by the romans but wasnt very important untill the split of the roman empire, and the emeror Constantine moved the capital to Byzantium, and renamed it constantanoble. yes they were antisemitic to some point, but constantine was actually heavily religously tolerent, and it was not untill later emperors that the they became antisemetic. oh by the way, the Byzantine Empire is not another name for the roman

[noworriesfanclub]

@zackmagic: roman empire, because the Byzantine empire was created as a result of the fall of the roman empire at the hands of germanic tribes. And we are not watching the bombing of the Israeli state, we are watching footage from an airforce version of war games. it is simply used to train pilots before battle. oh and israeli pilots fly during red flag operations by the way, along with 15 other countries. just thought you might wanna know.

[gaastra12]

no it was never ''created'' it was an pure undisrupted continuation of the roman empire which first had split into 2. Byzantion was a great merchant and trade city which flourished in the anthics time and even more when it became renamed to constantinoupolis and the capital city of the (east) roman empire, where it became the biggest trade city with the most glorious highlights in the world, being the richest and biggest city in the world in the medievals, unmatched.

[noworriesfanclub]

@gaastra when i said it was "created" I didnt mean it was built from scratch, i meant it was at first a city state, then came under the control of the Romans, and during the fall of the Roman empire, the west half was taken over by Germanic tribes, and the east side choose Byzantine to be their capital city, which eventually lead to it becoming an empire seperate of rome. so i guess i should of choosen the wording "The Byzantine empire was formed". And yes it was the biggest, richest, and most

[noworriesfanclub]

or one of the most impenatrable cities up untill the end of the medival times.

[HeadNtheClouds]

Hey, in your song interpretation, you spelled dreidel wrong,,, it's dreidel, not dradel,, it's the thing that us jewish people spin on hanukah,,, makes this song kinda weird, don't know what it really means.... hmmmmm....

[zackjmack]

well, you're a real good jew there, you misspelled hanukkah. And for all you brainiacs out there, this song appears to have pacifistic under and/or overtones. I can't and won't speak for the musicians, but jeez, get a clue. Who is 'the empire?' other than GW's "Evil Empire?" as it's been called for most of the years he was in office. All the swine/pig refences...? It's not necessarily an anti-semitic song, but it's definitely anti-war. Wake up, dimwits, jeez.

[onceuponanASYLUM]

So much pretension in here it smells.

[HeadNtheClouds]

don't appreciate the insults. What is wrong with the youth of today, no respect for anyone, Geez.. I was just trying to figure out what it was about, not get insulted,, what is the reason of insulting people & making them feel bad anyways? Hanukah is spelled many ways, with 2 K's, an H or a Ch, hmmmm....

[zackjmack]

Aw hell, don't get your split pea size bollocks all twisted up in a granny knot or whatever. I could give a shit less anyways.

[Countkristokauf]

The song and video go so well together, it's like magic. Watching this also makes me want to become a fighter pilot :O.

[dasgemuse]

makes me want to be a figher pilot.. just me and the vast emptiness....

[GotPh0]

looks like fun LOL

[pokeman331]

poppin flares

[starwarspunk]

this is like a perfect match up. i love this song, and the video flows with it so well. i wish the actual song sounded like this.

[NoobEntertainment]

All you need it your bass, a pencil, and a piece of paper, asshole. No tabs.

[bma852]

haha What makes him an asshole?

[houshmandben]

where can i find bass tab forr this song

[meranda11]

Wow!! I just realized I have been a pinback fan for about 4 years+ and this would be the first video of theirs I have watched lol...great work!

[nelson3300]

man, the way those flares hang in the air, it creates this arena feel that they are totally dueling it out in this epic 3D space... otherwise its just open and vast sky...

[ShakeITyEA]

those pilots are ace.

[wraith696]

It's pretty funny that I found these guys through a pretty shitty metal band. Thank you Byzantine.

[nelson3300]

[homicidalsoldier2006]

[bongripz541]

[affordablenuisance]

[kfractal]

[auzzi04]

[keine031]

[100percentphuct]

[bluedude426]

Love that bass line.

[donovaneely]

ho ya is called Operation Red Flag!!!

[wraith696]

Retards. I'm the one who introduced the song to the guy who made the video. I'm surprised because before he made it, there wasn't a single video on the song. Now, it has 60,000+ views.

[donovaneely]

ya but this is a training video of all of the worlds best air fighters

[SURFTHUGS]

sure you did bro

[homicidalsoldier2006]

well you should of been smart and made one yourself. so i guess that makes you a retard? self poooooooooned!!!!111oneoneshif­t+1

[wraith696]

yes, yes, I should of been smart.

[dontlistentomeimmute]

i love the way its mixed together.

[wyliesong]

there's something about this video that makes it perfect. maybe it's because we can still hear the original video audio? whatever it is, it's awesome.

[wraith696]

Jesus, I can't believe this got this many views.

[himynameisthenemo]

i cant believe your mum did either

[DevilStarDivine]

This sound a little like Blur.

[WRESTLERmi]

[avengedpenis]

DrEaMy :)

[TheCr0wing]

[project156]

[lumberjack5]

almost anything by pinback is bass, or is based off a bass riff

[StAndrewsXLII]

The best Pinback song ever.

And a great vid to go with it. kudos.

[planethjd]

thier are some funny coments like i would like to grow wing . lol thats funny

[Kasrkin5154]

Id love to be a pilot. Personaly Id like to fly the A10 Warthog, but thats just me.

[Thraxxacor]

its justified, an a-10 + america's enemies = dead bodies and lots of em. i'd like to man either position of a supercobra.

[StAndrewsXLII]

They are able to do figure eights within a football field.

[MacMan282]

haha, if the pilot doesn't pass out from g-force turns.

[misterabsolut]

just WAW! I love it

[wisterV]

Dreamy

[Dagdal124]

I wish I could grow wings...

[Freedomfoe07]

This is what I want to do in a few years.

[calicardoza]

This video is titties!

[evolawonder]

it was made in fact by evola titties,..how extreme for such an individual to gather?

[GRIMTICK]

[jacob7207]

Is that in Alaska?

[GRIMTICK]

Makes me want to be a pilot

[odievankenobi]

[julietavalon]

[abc123jan]

Beautiful machines.

[Blastogy]

Which album is that song from?

[katuwad]

Hi,

the album is called, 'This is Pinback'

[Dagdal124]

Mmm...all i can think of is Top Gun

[bearsy4usa]

That's because you are gay.

[julietavalon]

id throw up cos im gay?

:(

youre hurting my feelings now.

[gigagemo]

favorite'd

[kallateunrato]

"spin my dradle and I will split your atom

[LarryWaltersDREAMED]

I can always go to sleep listening to this... and Loro.

[mguloy]

dude, this is such a good video. no doubt this song fits perfectly.

[nelson3300]

is that four 15's against one 16?

[DarkEskemo]

I think there's 4 F-15E's and 2 F-16C's

[roscopfi]

DarkEskemo- Make more videos! I've been watching this one twice a day for almost two months. How'd you decide to cut this song with this footage? Brilliant.

[DarkEskemo]

Haha thanks dude! Really appreciate your comment. I don't really have time these days to make anything lol, with college and what not, thanks again! =]

[julietavalon]

what, you made this video? no you didnt? im confused:)

[DarkEskemo]

Like i've explained, the video is from red flag operations and i just put the song over it =)

[julietavalon]

wow, thats pretty cool..i did not know that..i totally love your work:)

[wisterV]

goes well w/ the song

[slimjim9934]

Awesome this video rocks

[potatochip717]

excellent. genius.

[tivis30]

Miammmmm...!!!!

[nelson3300]

god I can only imagine how exhilarating that must be. So graceful, so deadly...

[smellygonorrhea420]

this music fits SO well to this video. excellent job man

[whynotflip]

those are like blue angel jets or something. there like show jets

[DarkEskemo]

No not quite. They're standard combat ready jets, they're taking part in red flag operations, basically they have dogfights against each other etc, but instead of using live ammunition its a digital signal.

[Bredac]

The one's dropping the flares are F-14 Tomcats, and the single engine jet that is in persuit is a F-16.

[nelson3300]

nah dude those are f-15's...

[DarkEskemo]

Definitely F-15E's dude

[BScharlach]

They're right.  F-14s have moveable wings, F-15 Eagles don't. Cool video.
