Hell Is For Heroes - Retreat

[ryancrich]

wow i bought this on cd single, remember them?

[bryanddd]

It's such a massive shame that the great UK rock bands of the early 2000's like HIFH, Hundred Reasons and Reuben fell to the wayside of all the indie rock pish like Arctic Monkeys and Libertines that came along..

[TheLazysquirell]

The Neon Handshake is still in my top 10 albums of all time :D no matter how many times I listen to it I still find it as fresh and exciting as the first day I bought it. Shame they never quite 'made it' :(

[ireallyamamazing]

They were great, but they're no Susan Boyle.

[BahaVII]

I remeber when I used to enjoy mtv2..ah well

[owtatowttowt]

way way beter than any other shite I was listning to at that time. only thing I still like, the rest I'd say is pretty poor. why ih why did I ditch this CD.

[aplasticcup06]

Fucking hell! Why do I always find awesome bands too late! Same shit with Million Dead! ggrrrrrrrrr

[ireallyamamazing]

@aplasticcup06 - you can still enjoy today what they put out years ago. just saying....

[JizzleMaFizzle]

"(Insert band) was the (greatest/most underrated) band ever, (insert era) was awesome but now music is just (insert derogitory term)!" Ugh, good grief. Copy-paste this unoriginal bullcrap on any music video you see and become instantly popular.

[Kayrodo]

fycking miss these guys ;-;

[SeahawksFanUK]

The greatest British band, with the greatest album (The Neon Handshake) since the start of this century, bar none.

Live on HIFH ;)

[C5Bocker]

Couldn't agree more. We played with these guys in Bournemouth back in '99 if I remember right. Awesome band and a great bunch of lads.

[chemovio]

@SeahawksFanUK radiohead?

[MattDHarsent]

@SeahawksFanUK absolutely! HI4H rock!

[04h239]

when mtv 2 used to be good, oh wait.......... when music used to be good

[darren88ful]

when music was good now it's all stupid daft indie britpop crap

[stelamo]

got the album a year ago stunning !

[harrywoodsman]

back when mtv2 played gd music

[GivenWillingly]

They were ok on neon handshake but I like transmit disrupt a lot more.

[sno1681]

Ridiculously underrated. I live here in canada and no one around here has even heard of HIFH.

[nyfakta]

these guys are so underrated sadly

[SilversunFortress]

You say that, yet you listen to A Skylit Drive?

Yeah, you should probably re-think what you just said.

[FlavioFutDesporto]

Thank you for the show on Penafiel,Portugal last september (2008)!

They did simply,great!

[eongecko24]

some of the members of this band were from the late 90's alternative band Symposium..best known for their single..Blue...

[zegers84]

One of the best songs of this band. Great video

[69wallrider]

go justin go!

[lepizzaiolo]

lol 7 59 am ive just woken up, and i had hell is for heroes in my mind. i remembered they had a song i loved. it was the mountain is fo climbing. its weird to see, other people have just had the same waking up + urge to check an old song they forgot !!!!

lol

[S9RAH1990]

Aaah how I love this song.

I love HIFH!

[123hero321]

What a track! what an album! The neon handshake was a breath of fresh air in a world of boring rap metal when it came out, one of the most underrated albums ever, shut up, grow up and turn it up is what I say. Respect to HIFH, they kick ass and if it wasn't for record labels telling people the arctic spunkys are good so they can sell shit for top dollar, Hell is for heroes would be huge.

[Earthling86]

It's a modern alternative classic. I used to love this track, in fact I was hooked on the whole album for months.

Unfortunately I never got to see them live when they toured this, they were all sold out.

I kinda lost track of them after the first album too. I believe they got dropped but have been putting out new stuff on a smaller label, I'll have to give it a listen

[OrangeySky]

They're going on a short, possibly last ever, uk tour this month, check their website

[Cazonaleash]

It's so weird, i hadn't heard this for years but i woke up today with it in my head and had to come and give it good listen. I forgot how good this band are/were.

[leonescu]

a true classic from such an underrated band. When/if you ever meet these guys, they are the most down to earth people :)

genius video too

see you on their myspace!

[mseasick]

what's up with brit hard rock bands like this and bullet for my valentine? the singers are both kinda shitty and no one seems to notice. there are just so many way better bands in this style, and they're generally from the states.

[gojolleygo]

I don't see how these are anything like Bullet For My Valentine?

[mseasick]

musically maybe not, but the singers have a similar quality for me, there is kind of a strangled quality to their voices when they sing clean-it sounds fine once they go into a scream but the sung parts are weak.  Another singer like this is from the US band thrice

[hctibemyrt]

This song fucking rocks. This band fucking rocks. and as to the "what's up with brit hard rock bands like this and bullet for my valentine? the singers are both kinda shitty and no one seems to notice. there are just so many way better bands in this style, and they're generally from the states." Don't like it dont watch it? Ur an arsehole. States better my left tit. Ur opinion counts for nothing. Every1 else who left good comments, respect.

[yimmie666]

sweet jesus man i dont agree with his opinion, i think his voice is unique bt ffs he wasn't being hateful about stressing his opinion he's entitled to it, i fckin love HIFH ther my favorite band but ffs let someone have an opinion!

[sadfran]

a great missed world hit... sad but great song.

[BrilliantAffair]

My faave track from the phenomenal album neon handshake. =))))

[wmpassie]

<3 this song

[HellHammer2008]

03:01-03:41 is sweet !

[floggingmaria]

That video is a total embarrassmen to the song.

[LivaPool4Lyf]

well the lead singer is (justin)

[JayFFAFAlesanaES]

If you will and can, could you possibly send me the original version of Cut Down? It's on the first record they put on sale. Thanks for reading.

[LivaPool4Lyf]

[rhisis]

[thestevee1]

[KnowTheFEAR]

[jamiestewart10]

I remember buying this single when it came out and getting strange looks in HMV. Still sounds amazing, though.

[keanermaroonfan]

AWESOME !!!!!!!!!!

[AlJones6510]

mtv Europe was better.. when they changed over from that to mtv uk it went crap. we used to have faith no more on and loads of decent bands then they started to play crap top 40 jarg

[Millsytheshred]

back when mtv2 was good... now all they play is indie shite

[DraS]

[AlJones6510]
