[Ranman46]

Why does it skip the very very beginning??

[IMOVAHERE]

This kicks so much ass.

[1BFG81]

Luv the Gat Riffs Mean Intro Awesum Song!!!

[albassmaster]

I totally agree with shadowcory, why dosen't everyone just shut the fuck up and listen to the damn song

[albassmaster]

90s GRUNGE IS AMAZING

[GoCubbyz]

+1 on that man

[killtwitch]

we didn't start the flame war.

[ShadowCory]

why doesn't everyone just sit here and enjoy the song and comment on what you like about it. Because apparently if you looked up this song for a reason, most likely it caught your attention, whether it being good or bad to your ears. But don't soil everyone elses thoughts about something they think of. Also don't start cussing people out and saying things that don't even matter because its the internet. btw you wont get a fight out of me i dont argue with people i dont care about.

[darklordixor]

Fatass emo girl, wipe off your mascara tears and just off your life already. Learn to fucking count 17 in this video and now he is 30 that is 13 years trying to get off of drugs ignoramus.

[availableusername93]

hopeless internet feuders- please take the common decency to not fight, or if that cant be helped, to be the bigger man/fat ass emo girl, and not reply with such a derogatory comment.

Make love, not war <3

[1strwbryblondnc]

You should have been aborted.

[availableusername93]

oh come now, dont go making

should-have-beens at me when you havent even gotten to know me.

[mikeredrugger]

"fat ass emo girl, and not reply with such a derogatory comment." < is this not a "derogatory" comment?

[availableusername93]

I was repeating what was said in one of the previous comments, for comical reasons, not in offense towards anyone :)

[mikeredrugger]

lol just makin sure

[darklordixor]

And he is 30 now you fucking dumbshit. Fucking retarded girl research shit before you spout idiotic things from your cockhole.

[anidnmeno]

now, now, children...

[aries1933]

ROCK ON TRAVIS!

[darklordixor]

Fuck he wasted 13 years of his life trying to get off drugs.

[1strwbryblondnc]

He didn't start drugs at 4 years old, you moron. He was only 17 here, how did he "waste 13 years"? You didn't do so well in math, right?

[darklordixor]

Damn only 17, shit he would have lived the good like if he didn't fuck up.

[Melvins82]

Travis was 17 in this video... fuck.

[1strwbryblondnc]

Wrote the song at about 16, put a band together. Other 16 year olds were getting their driver's liense, Travis and band were opening for Metallica. He got strung out on meth, fired the band (who becamse Tantric later) and gave himself heart defects and permanent damage from drug use. He wasfeatured on Intervention, season 2 and DID go to rehab. I read he only relapsed once and is in the studio recording his next project.

[DallasRae19]

Such a good song. Love it.

[misteramoco]

actually the song is played in Drop C.

[Gacelish]

nope, its (from low to high) Db Ab Db Gb Bb Eb

that is, like Drop D but 1 extra half step down the whole guitar

[brandicasper23]

Travis became addicted to meth and fired the band and spent his fortune. so sad. He has heart problems now after a meth binge.

[1strwbryblondnc]

He was on Intervention it's second season, had gone to rehab for meth addiction.  I understand he did finish the inpjouse treatment and has only relapsed once. He's been trying to put a new band together - the remaining members here became Tantric. Travis is due to release another album, probably using studio musicians until interest can be stirred up again. He's got a lot of talent, damn drugs kill all the good ones...don't let them get you, Travis!

[XxKINGCABOOSExX]

that sucks! I really like days of the new, Yellow was probably there best album eh? Yeah im Canadian.

[erb0825]

great song but what happen to them!

[ScarletHawtyIV]

Ohhh how hawt is he, gawjusss!!!!

[1strwbryblondnc]

Plesae don't post immature stupid shit, you can't spell and if the best thought you have it "how hawt" he is I suggest you stay in school.

[teNdcfilms]

how about not being a cunt too?

[1strwbryblondnc]

How bout growing a pair - oh, hermaphrodites are confused, aren't you??

[1strwbryblondnc]

Guess this is the closest you'll ever get to one, huh?

[SmurfALMIGHTY]

It's in Drop D and a half-step down.

[btdub]

Almost all of Travis' songs are in Drop D

[gofucoffee]

if i were a betttn' man, i'd say the tuning would be half step down.

not certain though.

g/l

[inward360]

I cannot find the "correct tuning for this song anywhere...actually, most of their songs. Anyone know where i can get a tab book or what the fricken "correct" tunings are for the first album?

[RapunzelDreamGirl]

I had to buy the cassette 3 times cuz I played it that much!! LOL then came the cd which I can still play!

I never get tired of it...

[H13drummer]

epic solo man. God dang!

[Gacelish]

agreed

[1strwbryblondnc]

Travis Meeks wrote this at 16, was touring and opening for Metallica at 17. Got strung out on meth and fired the band.  He's been on Intervention, apparently trying to stay clean after a few relapses. The rest of the band went on to form Tantric.

[2889666]

I dont know why....but this song Never gets old....

I LOVE itttttt...

And Travis. LOVE THE NEW ALBUM!

I just wish he would have chosen a better road to go down. and Kept his band together. :(

oh...well atleast all is fine now

[roberlevi]

I've finally found this motherfucking song.... I've been looking for it for years... now I don't need an excuse... GREAT...GREAT song...

[therealcoolbreeze]

did the 17 yr old guy write this

[Gacelish]

awesome song

[dramzv]

What a voice, hard to believe he was only 17 then.

[labiach22]

I love this song! Its been one of my favourites for years

[gomerrpm21]

the singer/guitar player.

[bucky5356]

he also posted this video..i'll put something down on it

[xraybucky]

all the power to you travis

[mojomagic1979]

good luck travice it is a tough road trust me

[mojomagic1979]

I was a meth addict and it is not as cool as you think I wish travis the best

[guitarboy183]

awesome song,good job travis on getting sober

[sexinapanerin]

Amazing voice, extremely talented. Can't wait for the new stuff!

[bren7dank]

Wow! Meth is so much cooler because of this guy.

[gwen1673]

im watching him on intervention NOW.

[dewicare]

me too:)

[matako07]

what a goof..

I'm sure he thought he was king shit yarly rocker before he fell too deeply in love with his own legend..bAhUh...

[higlds1354]

i saww him too on intervention

!

[Baxterfla]

yea saw him on intervention too, he's so talented, going to buy their album tomorrow.

[Forzanuccii]

saw him on the intervention show !

[WakingdaDemon]

This would sound so much cooler with Electric Guitars instead, but still amazing. especially the solo =D

[megallica1990]

great song and video!

[musicmytruelove]

Travis was so damn hot!! Frickin' great song!! And the guy on the chair looks like one of my ex boyfriends...ESPECIALLY when he cuts his hair!!! Oh my God! Hahahaha!

[bloop3446]

wow the singer was on

inervention for using meth

[beautyHURTS88]

I know, that was insane.

And he had to much talent to just give it up.

[Birkone]

I am seeing Days of the New tonight, they are opening for SPONGE, and SEVEN MARY THREE..in CHICAGO

[MelissaDaNae1986]

These guys had serious potential. It's too bad the singer is a junkie. I hope he gets his shit together soon. He's got a kid and everything.

[KingAxel99]

he was on intervention about 4 years ago, declared sobriety, and is currently working on a new album tentatively titled Purple.

[nzrocksgh]

I love this band and song.. ughh honestly i just got done watching intervention the one with travis in it i hope he gets better

[laurann62289]

did you guys know that the lead singer recorded this song when he was only 16 YEARS OLD?!?!?!

its crazy. he sure dosent sound 16. hes so adorable!

[seether18]

cuz i finally found a reason, i don't need an excuse...

[R4V1D]

aww, its edited short.

[Childrenofthecornsno]

I could never understand why people u-tube shit they dont like, and then bash it to death. I mean, really... I cant fuckin stand country music but you dont see me looking up Garth Brooks and bashin the shit out of his music

[dlistedbitch]

I love this song!! It was one my fav songs back in highschool..I really hope Travis is doing a lot better now. It was heartbreaking to see him on Intervention a few years back- hopefully he's making music and will write a Hit album again!

[paisteuser06]

saw these guys live over the summer...great show.

[nzrocksgh]

you fuckin liar theres no way you could have seen them

[7370801]

Well, Meeks is touring with a variety of revolving back up musicians, under the same band name as he is the founder and owns the rights. So, the poster did not see the original band members, but certainly could have seen Days of the New.

[7370801]

The poster is not lying. Look at their site.

[lilhell52]

hey lanjoith i bet yu wish you good sing half as good as travis.

[justingrogan]

yea im glad this guy got off meth, he was on intervention and he was twacked the fuck out. im glad there back on tour, they are a bad ass band that was really great in there prime which was cut short, glad to here them again

[ToneeRhianRose]

I heard this on the radio & hadn't heard it in a while, so I thought I'd come find the vid. This song is awesome!

[kinghybodo]

damn me too lol, 3 days ago i heard it on the radio and my dad used to play this song in a band so the song came on and he said he played the song in a band and i really liked it. I like the idea of a HEAVY ACOUSTIC GUITAR

[nirv65]

days of the new is a classic grunge band. this is a alternative rock classic. fuckin awesome.

[emoEVtheCHAMPbmx]

What is wrong with redneck drug addicts?

JP.

But who is that kid in the video, just wondering?

[lanjoith]

Nothing worse than a greasy kid from the midwest ripping off Soundgarden and Alice In Chains. Pathetic redneck drug addict. Hated this song when it came out and still hate it a decade later.

[kalemcleod]

yeh this sounds alot like spoonman by soundgarden. & this dude has tried a little to copy kurt cobain a bit too i think. bit of alice too

[heavymetalrulz123]

Yes. It reminds me of Soundgarden. He looks like Chris Cornell a little bit.

[robinhoek]

You are seriously taking a shot at the singer for being on drugs? Do you not know both of the bands you listed are subject to drugs also?I think this guy is still alive which is a lot more than I can say about Alice In Chains (and bands like Nirvana). And I'm sure they said to themselves "Let's totally rip off all the greatest grunge bands" they couldn't just like that style of music like Soundgarden did or AiC did.

disclaimer: not meaning to sound harsh about AiC - they were a great band

[GladiusGSF]

WOW...what morons....they were contemporaries of both bands. SG and AIC both had their problems with drugs. This album blows most SG and AIC stuff away anyhow...

[kalemcleod]

no it doesn't. nothing is better than alice in chains

[NegativeCreep11]

seriously DOTN are good but they dont come close to Alice in Chains or Soundgarden

[youknowyourrite1]

damn asshole,you have the sandiest vagina ever....

[PositiveVibration9]

this is also a little bit like aic too

[tequ1to]

someone make a drum cover

[Revmaster420]

This song rocks

[DW1014]

Is that The Rock's bull logo at the end.

[twodaysthere]

To me, this song is so perfect. got a good story line plus the rythim is really good.

[nkippert]

This song is overplayed a lot but it never gets old like other radio replays, i cant tell what makes it so good.

[nanci77]

days of the new freakin rock man rock is awsume

[StevenYahr]

Man I miss the grunge - era, the best music ever

[gormanbc]

Hell Yeah! Right on! Totally agree!

[hoffmeister3050]

lol this guy sounds like scott stapp cumed all his vocal chords.

[NegativeCreep11]

hahahahaha good one and i like creed hahahahaahaha

[crisfourdogs]

STP, yeah, does have that kind of sound, 'cept little more hot & dirty

[cardot33]

kinda reminds me of STP but its definitely different.

[njfantasy]

Awesome !!!!!!!! :-)

[gormanbc]

Such a badass song! Love it!

[thrashgrunge]

It's Grunge!

[Gorth786]

did the lead vocalist pull off both the based notes and the higher and more sadistic sounding vocals in this song?

[mrdizle]

Yes the lead guitarist Travis Meeks did all the guitars and vocals for the album.

[Doggersamm]

this song is fucking sweet!

[ZShoveAside]

It's a shame this band wasn't a huge hit and they broke up. At least Travis is clean now...I think.

[Konformation07]

he is clean and they are making a new album

[marshawright]

Thats kick ass!!! Can not wait!

[rederick2006]

Youtube=the official resting place of kick ass music videos that are no longer seen on television

[Drumsxspirit]

hell yeah

[KevykevHID]

Another one of my favs. 90's were great!

[crazycranz28]

i can't get enough of this song

[matango]

These guys should never touched an eletric guitar. Their non accoustic song aren't this good.

[999jsw]

This is 90's grunge at it's finest. That's why it sounds like a mix of pearl jam and alice in chains and whatever. I say a little soundgarden as well.

[skatercrater64]

the guitar beat sounds almost just like spoon man by soundgarden

[GrungeDude90]

ummm this is not grunge, this is a pretty lame song

[mkpctv]

sorry if this question was asked before, but he was in Tantric too right?

[Bialo123]

yes he was

[leifiepedersen]

everyone but the singer was in tantric. the singer, travis meeks, fired everyone after this record was put out, so the remaining members found a singer that sounds like him and started tantric.

[ligerking]

OMFg,this guy looks like a singer from audioslave,thus,ITS AWESOME,5/5

[veritasuo]

freakin finally! could never find the name.

[bs835]

fo sho!! i have been looking for this damn song for at least a month. i almost went crazy thats how bad it was bothering me... it sounds like the song "rooster"

[veritasuo]

yeah, it definitely has a mix of sound like pearl jam and alice in chains, the vocal style even reminds me slightly of kurt cobain.

[luminousbodies]

same!

[saladphone]

wow, .. your right this song does sound alot like rooster, .. its unbelievably awsum

[DIRTBIKERIDER51]

i have been looking for this song fur ever i actually thought it was stp

[JuggaloFaygoDrinker]

this song is wicked

[IeroJones]

this song is amazing o.O love it

[DjL2793]

this song is so 90s...

...but in an awesome way

[Stevum]

than dont listen to this band/song

[Chefsloveshack08]

yeah dont like the tunes dont even type in the band, song, nothing its pointless and it kills our mood and just puts a target on that guys head

[iamsuicide]

LOVE IT

[wihyena69]

i miss mtv x !!!!!!

[iunnodiapeys]

intro stolen from led zeppelin's song no quarter but still a decent song

[HalitherKing]

Wronnnggggg onii-san Go look at the difference in tabs^^

[101moo101]

i admit it does sound similar, but its definitely not the same. your a fucking douchebag. sure led zeppelin is a great band, but just because some song sounds similar to one of their songs doesnt automaticslly mean it was stolen you twatrocket. go listen to both songs again you retard youll hear the difference

[Rustymeng45]

I rock harder to these guys than most electric rock bands!

[hennigans]

hes so sexy

[BeQuietAndDrive1624]

Yes, Yes he is :)

[Lydzmcd]

so i was at my friends place in louisville yesterday for a st pat's party and we saw two guy on the street and invited them in for some food and brews. Turns out one of them was travis and for anyone worried about how he is doing he turned down all alcohol, was completely sober, and an overall really great guy. They even fixed our friend's messed up door frame

[zombiegeeknecrocult]

that's a relief. he seemed like a cool guy. only smoked cigs at the show i went to. it would suck if he relapsed.

[Kyotee73]

meeks is the george best of rock

[erikise]

most badass song ever

[Daredevilfan182]

sweeeeettt...
