Grave Robber "Altered States" Music Video

[WRETCHEDISHERE]

@CK3UT Uhm, yes. Yes we do. By the way, I know who The Small Faces are and I'm a fan of them. Huge influence on me as a songwriter. Listen carefully, you'll hear the influence.

[DemonicPride666]

You guys kicked ass at the Silo in Reading, PA. It was great meeting with a couple of you guys for a small interview. Definitely looking forward to seeing you guys again soon

[WRETCHEDISHERE]

@DemonicPride666 Thanx!! We hope to make it back soon!

[WeAreTheSanctuary]

Lol even the security guy is getting into it!

[TheLadySullivan]

i so enjoyed your show on new years eve and I've already listened to the new cd several times over. i really can't wait to see you guys in concert again!

[WRETCHEDISHERE]

@TheLadySullivan Aww, shucks, Maam!



[ezeindpcrist777]

[JeffreyViper]

@ezeindpcrist777 Yeah dude, the band to check out is Blaster The Rocketman (sometimes referred to as Blaster the Rocketboy depending on which album you look at.)

[onlyelisha]

@ezeindpcrist777 The Deadlines are another one.

[TheMonsterSkull]

You guys are awesome!

[xzAvengeDzx]

[blupnut311]

I discovered Grave Robber on "Beyond the Riff" here in Beaumont on AM 1300 and it was one of the most entertaining interviews I have heard in a long time...Not to mention the music was AWESOME...So I ordered Exhumed and now I'm pacing around my mailbox at home

[promogirly777]

[southrenvoice]

Did anyone see the security 'jammin along?

[ThePRIDEFULBASTARD]

Excellent video! One of my favorite songs!

[MegaGeneralKenobi]

This is the fucking worst piece of shit I have ever hear or seen in my ENTIRE life. Why the fuck are these guys wearing costumes?

[bpowlus1]

@MegaGeneralKenobi Whose wearing costumes?

[onlyelisha]

@MegaGeneralKenobi You have crap taste in music then

[DarkSoulSeraph]

@MegaGeneralKenobi Could you explain why it's a POS? Maybe you could ask them what's up with the costumes. I think the answer would surprise you.

[MartyredxMaiden]

brutal! and the lyrics are GENIUS! love it! Fellow spooky christian over here :) Good to know that there are bands out there that cater haha

[pioniere1944]

Awesome as always, I got "Altered" at C-Stone, and Sonshine this past summer, thanks ...

[jakeweerez]

I have your signed picture framed in my room!! You guys truly proved yourselves at Sonshine this summer!! Can't wait to see you again!!

[WRETCHEDISHERE]

@jakeweerez Thanx, brother!! Hope to play Sonshine again!!

[BIGTDAMC]

Best Christian Punk band out................. check out false idol theyre sick too

[adhLIGHTS]

@BIGTDAMC And True Liberty!



[805TheWay]

What's up fellas this is Johnny Boy from the WAY in Cali. I have to confess that I was a little skeptical when I first saw you. I want to apologize, my brothers, for judging by appearance. I love what you are doing and am proud that you play for Jesus! Keep doing your thang and stay strong! Much luv!

[flamingbassdude]

You guys were great at sonshine!!!

[onlyelisha]

[Lunarwill]

Must admit, this is really intelligent, even if you gentlemen sound more than a bit like the Misfits (no offense). Target the appeal of the morbid or gruesome, and use it to talk about Christ (though I'm not Christian). Who says Christians have no good tunes? Best wishes.

[WRETCHEDISHERE]

@Lunarwill We'll take that as a compliment! Yeah, its no secret we like The 'Fits! Glad you like the tunes!

[WRETCHEDISHERE]

@Lunarwill Thanx, much appreciated!!

[Gaskinfam]

Wretched! Awesome channel! And for all the haters out there just know that God wants us to love each other as we love ourselves! Stop hating things you don't understand! Spread love and joy and compassion and the word of God to others and help build each other in the word of God instead of your own ignorant interpretation of what the word says. I love you all. And I pray for Gods blessing and favor for all of you in your daily life! Go out and spread His word and Love to those who need it!

[WRETCHEDISHERE]

@Gaskinfam Thanx, bro!! That's a good word! Nice to see something positive being brought here!

[WRETCHEDISHERE]

@IIVIIystery Galatians 5 says the fruit of the spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self control. Which of these characteristics have you exhibited on my wall?

[WRETCHEDISHERE]

@IIVIIystery Lastly, Jake is right.  We are almost always the last people to leave and we make ourselves available to EVERYONE who needs help, encouragement, or prayer. Most of our fans are not Christians. We have chosen to live our lives by love, not hate. If you have somehow developed a taste for Lamb Of God, you obviously wouldn't like Grave Robber. But, until you meet me in person, I recommend not making a fool out of yourself by assuming you know my character, personality, and demeaner.

[WRETCHEDISHERE]

@IIVIIystery For the record, the five of us are more hardcore than you can ever imagine. We've been through situations and trials that'd make most people curl up into the fetal position. You have no idea, dude. Posers? Pfft! Again, you have no clue. Don't think that because we are Christ Followers that makes us weak, little bro. DON'T MISTAKE MEEKNESS FOR WEAKNESS. I'd be interested to see if you could tough it out with us on the road for a week.

[WRETCHEDISHERE]

@IIVIIystery That's pretty awesome that you try to compare us to (ahem) metal bands. However, it's apples and oranges, dude. We are a horror punk/shock rock band. A better comparison would be Misfits, Blitzkid, Volbeat, Calabrese, Wednesday 13, etc. I mean, truthfully, what If I said Lamb of God sucks because they don't sound like a Alice Cooper? That'd be silly, right? If you don't like punk, you wouldn't like my band and I'm very ok with that.

[jakeweerez]

For all you haters out there, SHUT UP!! If you ever met these guys, you would know that they are the coolest dudes in the world! They made this band to stand up for what they believe & so the Scripture could reach a whole different crowd of people. First time I saw them, I saw a guy in tears thanking every one of them...they helped him from who knows what kind of personal harm. It's not everyday that a band can do something that meaningful for someone! So just stop hating & start loving!

[scarydrummr93]

just saw you guys play Sonshine Fest this weekend. you were absolutely amazing!

[WesMan282]

You guys are awesome XD

[savethevulcans88]

I love this band! You rocked c-stone 2011!

[CircleOfNothing]

SICK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Love it!



[IIVIIystery]

Wow...this sucks!

[onlyelisha]

@IIVIIystery you suck for having a negative opinion on a good band and should not be allowed to have opinions anymore, which of course, just my ridiculous opinion.

[IIVIIystery]

@onlyelisha Of course it's a ridiculous opinion, because if you like this band then your a fucking deaf! They're posers that want to be hardcore but aren't because they're a Christian band. I'm surprised they've gotten this far! oh well, look at all the fat, ugly fans they have that want to head bang but can't because it's not hardcore enough LMFAO! failures... Tell me when you listen to Lamb of God or In Flames! That's fuckin' real music!

[Brutonification]

Not even what I expected from this band at all...haha I was expecting like horror metal type...but I really love these guys...can't wait to see them at Sonshine this July...

[AddictedToTheOi138]

punks not dead, but horror punk was always dead............. zombies :D

[whacksey]

these guys were up on shrooms when they made this! idc if their christian or not

[WRETCHEDISHERE]

@whacksey We very much are. And sorry to burst your bubble, but no shrooms.

[whacksey]

@WRETCHEDISHERE id try it

[billyf777]

Wow, I was looking for something like a Christian crust/d-beat and came across this on Myspace. Not what I was looking for but sooooo killer! I get it!

[WRETCHEDISHERE]

Chico, we use symbolism and parables. Feel free to contact me with any questions at Graverobber.punk@gmail.com

[rrkloppe]

@WRETCHEDISHERE

Man i have to thank you all. I always loved horror punk, i saw misfits 3 times (i'm in Brazil, and misfits come come here many times). I Become christian in 02 and since then i tried to stop hearing some kind of songs. Maybe you can think that i'm too religious and maybe i'm really am, but i do not feel ok to hear some musics ... And i have to thanks cuz i can hear horror punk right now. Please, someday if you can come to Brazil, i can assure you that at least 100 people will go

[notjustanothersk8er]

@rrkloppe don't let your religion get in the way of certain types of music. i'm a catholic and some of my favorite bands are slayer, marilyn manson, cannibal corpse, etc. there's nothing wrong with liking a certain type of music because of your beliefs. if you don't agree with the lyrics, you can still listen to the music. God won't send you to hell for listening to the misfits haha just my opinion though

[trinityseeker]

@notjustanothersk8er bro I'm sorry, but the fact is that Lucifer was mentioned as one of the covering angels. He was an angel of worship. (Ezekiel 28:14). What could he use to so easily entangle or snare us is something that he knows so well, which is entertainment. Satan wants you to feel as if those bands you're listening to don't effect you in any sense, but the fact of the matter is they do. It might be so small you don't notice, but it does effect your spiritual life in a big way.

[notjustanothersk8er]

@trinityseeker I'm well aware of what Satan tries to do to us. but I'm not gonna let the music i listen to affect my morals, that's just ridiculous. you might think of me as ignorant, but I'm not gonna go and kill a bunch of people just because i heard about it in a song. I'm gonna keep on listening to the music i love, no matter what others might think, and at the same time I'm going to continue to praise God because that's what I believe in.

[WRETCHEDISHERE]

Sorry, the video is not embedded on the new cd now. We were on a different label and plans were made to put the video on the disc. We were dropped from the label and I started a new label. As such, I couldn't afford to post for the video to be included on the disc. Sorry for any inconvenience.

[chicorenny23]

how is this a christian band?

[MetalXX4ever]

@chicorenny23

If you had ever been to any of their shows you would know. they do nothing but talk about god and jesus, they pray with the crowd for people they know who are sick. these guys are some of the best christians i've ever seen. i saw them at cornerstone festival this year and i went to everyone of their shows because when i come out of those shows i feel closer to god.

[GiannisSlayer]

you are A-W-E-S-O-M-E!greetings from greece guys! :D

[iCakeify]

New fave feelgood song.

[pctgraverobba]

cool name an image..... thats something, right?

[Rawk4Life]

So where is it then?

[hilasterionside]

i really like your music can you post the lyrics of this song??

[MrAnimeKamii]

Damn you guys are SIC!!!!

[gorto27]

Woah!!!...These guys are really good...Awesome bass line!!

[RockDocter]

i really thought: this is gonna suck they look like slipknot and they are gonna grunt obviously... well boys I love it when i am proven WRONG cuz this band is fucking awesome!

[onlyelisha]

@WRETCHEDISHERE ORLY!?!? I wish to see

[Unsadus]

Would be a dvd single released?.. i want this video!!!

[bloodysoultears777]

i love these guys!!support them!

[necr0sys]

Please do a video for Valley of Dry Bones, that song is amazing.

[TheLadySullivan]

Just now starting to watch your videos. its been a long time since i've been on the metal scene. I'm really starting to love it! This video is so awesome!

[TheLadySullivan]

Grave Robber was just at my church. They even autographed a band picture for me. I've never had so much fun in my life!

[rogelio1319]

I work at the Haunted Cave where parts of this music video was shot at and I just now was told about this video. It's amazing! I actually saw you guys play when you was there and I had a blast! This is by far one of my favorite videos now. Keep it up

[craigathrush]

I work Security at Martin's Tavern, Garrett Indiana. Looks like al ot of this video was shot there. They put on one HELL of a show.

[xGodsOwnFoolx]

I admit, at first I totally didn't get this band...like, at all. But then a friend suggested I just, REALLY give them a chance. And when I listened to them more they began to grow on me. And then BAM it hit me how good they really were! And how cool it was that they were able to do this "horror rock/punk" thing all whilst preaching the Gospel! God bless you guys in Grave Robber!!! LOVE the music!!!

[alleclipsed]

I totally missed the press conference! Grrr! But I made every show!! :D

[necr0sys]

Come to South Africa!!!!!!!!!

[WRETCHEDISHERE]

@necr0sys Wow!! We'd love to!

[666CrazyCory]

the bassist was my drumline instructer. no fucking joke his name is mike if im remembering right

[WRETCHEDISHERE]

@666CrazyCory Our bass player was never a drumline instructor and his name is not Mike. Sorry, bro. Mistaken identity.

[666CrazyCory]

@WRETCHEDISHERE O.O

[aist4r]

Vengan a Chile por favor, habemos mucha gente que ama el HorrorPunk!

Come to Chile please, there are a lot of people whom love HorrorPunk!

[WRETCHEDISHERE]

[mak52490]

[WRETCHEDISHERE]

@mak52490 We were in New York in March. We'll most likely be in New York in October.

[johnfantastic]

SIMPLEMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMENTE LO MAS HORRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRIBL­E VISTO Y ESCUCHADO... DAN LASTIMA

[WRETCHEDISHERE]

@johnfantastic Does that mean we are simply horrible and visit the escalator?

[ashleyraye13]

i bet they smell off death!!!

[WRETCHEDISHERE]

@ashleyraye13 Yes we do!

[JJBolli1]

Great song, cool video. I just read the interview with Wretched in Heaven's Metal fanzine. I'm looking forward to hearing the new songs/ CD he talked about.  I hope the deal goes through.

[WRETCHEDISHERE]

@JJBolli1 Thanx, bro! Great article wasn't it?

[Mosh4Yesh777]

Can't wait to meet you guys at Cornerstone Fest this year! I'd like to get a picture with you guys so I can scare the living hell out of my grandma on my facebook page! ;)

[WRETCHEDISHERE]

@Mosh4Yesh777 Make sure you com eup and introduce yourself to us!!! Bring your grandma, we'll scare the hell out of her in person!!! mu-oo-hahahahaaaaa

[WRETCHEDISHERE]

@Mosh4Yesh777 We are doing a press conference at 2:30 at the press tent!

[WRETCHEDISHERE]

@WRETCHEDISHERE 2:30 Saturday that is

[Mosh4Yesh777]

@WRETCHEDISHERE Sweet! I'll definately be there for that and for the show of course. :)

[RoseCrossVato]

I saw them play a few years back. They sounded better live than they do on the studio recordings. Also the stage show was excellent. I prefer the Radio Werewolf approach to horror rock, but Grave Robber is not a bad example of the Misfits approach. Plus, you've got to give these guys credit for enduring so much mean-spirited crap for being upfront about their religious views. Their persistence through the storm has been admirable.

[WRETCHEDISHERE]

@RoseCrossVato thanx.  that's encouraging!

[Balzak309]

This is easily one of the best songs/albums I've heard this year.

[WRETCHEDISHERE]

@Balzak309 wow, thanx!

[joeyLJ]

You guys are awesome, you should totally find a way to get to Denmark.

Keep doing what you're doing!

[WRETCHEDISHERE]

@joeyLJ we'd loooooooooooove to come to Denmark

[Kayoz14]

@WRETCHEDISHERE If you go to Denmark you have to promise me you'll drop by Norway as well PLEASE!

[grindingyourfaceoff]

Awesome band, aweome song, and they play a great set! Hope to see Grave Robber come back and play here in SC again sometime.

[WRETCHEDISHERE]

@grindingyourfaceoff we'll always come back to SC. Always a great time!!

[thesleepingKPH]

this band sucks.. listen to gravemaker

[WRETCHEDISHERE]

@thesleepingKPH Never heard of them.

[WRETCHEDISHERE]

@thesleepingKPH just checked 'em out. They sound like NIV, Strongarm, etc. They are ok, I guess. Not my thing. Not into Hardcore. It's a far too limited genre for me.

[MrDRUMRBOY]

this sucks and they look gay.

[WRETCHEDISHERE]

@MrDRUMRBOY and you are an authority on this subject I assume?

[gtxss]

these guys one of the best christian bands out there. kEEP UP THE GOOD WORK YOU GOULS

[WRETCHEDISHERE]

@gtxss Why thank you kindly!

[XtianMetalFan]

you must come to destruction fest in london this year

[WRETCHEDISHERE]

@XtianMetalFan We'd love to!! When is it?

[necr0sys]

Inner Sanctum definately has it's own unique sound compared to Be Afraid which sounded more like post Danzing Misfits. I love the solos and I think Valley of Dry Bones is freakin awesome, actually reminds me of pet semetary of Ramones.

[mcrlicious123]

Personally i just think they are a band that wants to be like the misfits.

[WRETCHEDISHERE]

Personally, we LOVE The Misfits, but have decidedly taken a turn away from their sound. I will certainly retract this statement if you can find me a single Misfits song that sound like "Altered States". Happy hunting!

[Biffenstein1]

@theyr not trying to be like the misfits, they were inspired by the misfits (and jesus)! a lot of punk bands sound like that though, because thats how punk bands are supposed to sound lol!

[WRETCHEDISHERE]

Yes!!! Punk bands ARE supposed to sound like that!! I couldn't agree more!!

[necr0sys]

one my favourite bands

[WRETCHEDISHERE]

Thank you!!

[TheSCHIZOF13ND]

woooww.. that great video the best i ever hear since 2008

[Mushorwell]

@TheSCHIZOF13ND punk rock... singing in slipknot-like costumes, now that's scary...

[WRETCHEDISHERE]

That is very flattering. Thank you!

[theBIGmanta099]

[182blinkerito]

horror punk never die!

[RadicalRachel7]

I can honestly say GRAVE ROBBER is my favorite band.

[WRETCHEDISHERE]

Thanx, Rachel!! We appreciate you!!

[rox52]

almost hard to believe these guys are christians eh? and hardcore christians none the less. Their faith in god and jesus is very very very high. creepy,scary, amen.

[alfonsometal666]

[elvisdead77]

jesus rocks!

[Lordofboopaa]

sweet job guys, amazing. =]

[KnightofMotley]

This was a blast to film! After we got done, we were walking to our car, and this lady comes up and wants me to talk to her son, who promptly has a meltdown because a scary clown is approaching his porch. Should have had the camera; it would've won $10 thousand on AFV!

[TheImmortalsDeath]

Awsome video, glad i got to be a part of it.

[lulux22000]

i can't wait for the new cd! you guys were one of the best band i heard at cornerstone this year!

[WRETCHEDISHERE]

show de bola? what does that mean?

[FOffspring]

"Show de bola" is an expression in portuguese, like "Awesome"

[batukda]

Show de Bola...

[WRETCHEDISHERE]

what does that mean?

[lilbobkins]

Nice Vid!!!! The new cd will rock!!

[hammerman641]

[Mikepagan13]

Amazing song so perfectly catchy!!!!!!!!

[TheCreature138]

Hey! That's awesome!

[RadicalRachel7]

Awesome!! Good job guys :)

[amartinek01]

Fantastic work. Love this song.

[toyzfromthecrypt]

Hey Guys, video is very ghoul. It was a great time. Thank you for including me in it ( @ :24 ) . For the rest you, you need to buy the CD, its awsome. I just did. Roadkill (the Crypt Creeper)

[Rawk4Life]

Thanks, but I pre-ordered it at Cornerstone this year. Got the CD in the mail last Friday.

[otto802]

Great video for a great band!

[allannal]

Awesome video. Wish I could have been there with the rest of the Chicago crew.

[WRETCHEDISHERE]

This video rules!!!! (Ok, I'm biased) - Nice work Nick Henney!! If any of you want to make a music video, don't be an idiot, Nick is your man!!!
