Despised Icon - in the arms of perdition (live)

[LittleMaggot50]

Awesome song

[pootisgod]

i saw these guys 4 days ago in dayton, ohio...brutal as fuck...everytime

[fermisk]

@pootisgod

was there any hardcore dancing going on ????

[xEMPYREANx]

vocals are just pure amazing

[PFCJake1691]

does Steve actually do a inhale squeel at 3:49? is pretty much the only video (including me seeing them live as well) where he does, as usually it's the sort of exhale he does instead of squeeling.

[Mlothizzlefizzle2]

nah its exhale

[PFCJake1691]

really? I thought it'd be an inhale, considering he doesn't do those squeels live anymore just those lower exhaled sort of squeels.

[langharigetoon]

killeerr breakdown

[rexxes123]

DAMN ich see them at summerblast,trier IT`LL BE SO FUCKING GOOD !!!

[DavidEatsFlesh]

That's what they want to be them. A Very nice band with a 2 Vocalists with a nice Guitarist and ofcourse a Drummer. Hell Yeah?

[INMETALWETRUST1988]

THIS DRUMMER IS OWESMOE!

[Farpquardt5]

Damn!That was a shit load of nois!

[trashsock]

2 vocalists, kinda reminds me of DYING FETUS or does guitar/vocals not count, i think they do.

[BrutalEyeCandie]

nah cause the other singer is just doing vocals he's not playin nothing

[LetsFuckingMosh]

This fucking breakdown bring the hell on this fucking earth !!!!!!

[xtremeriepit]

maladeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee­ee

[metalhead8008]

shit i forgot his name, but look at singer in the black shirt strutting around in the back like a badass

brutal

[iktpq94]

since wen did they have 2 vocalists?

[AlienCola]

hey plasticfishmassicre

shut your fuckin mouth

2 vocalists is soo amazing

obviously you dont know fuck all

[plasticfishmassacre]

i just dont see the point in it, when every other vocalist can do what both of those guys are doing at the same time.. there not even smart about it doing harmonies.

at least the rivalry did that, and had one guy on growls and the other on screams.

[Decemation92]

STFU IT SOUNDS GOOD

[xxxmarkhatesyouxxx]

the guys below me are a bunch of faggots. You dont know shit. shut the fuck up and go blow each other

[plasticfishmassacre]

having two vocalists is so unnecessary.

[MolotovAL]

Too right mate. The guy in the black t shirt has a much better range, they should stick with him and get rid of the other one, I don't see him fullfilling a particularly big role in this band.

[itclown]

other bands have tried doing it and don't succeed. This band would be nothing without alex and you know it.

[plasticfishmassacre]

no... i don't 'know' it

i know that one guy has no stage presence at all but has a way better range, and the other jumps around and head bangs but has fuck all input into the bands sound seeing as the other vocalist could do everything he does.. hes like clown from slipknot, does absolutely nothing but make a noise every now n then and head bang.

[OthewolfislooseO]

The fact is, he is an integral member of DI. Wheteher you like it or not, the songs are written around both vocalists. He actually writes most of the lyrics too.

If you listen to the album, they both slay...

[Elipium]

4.05 BRUTAL

[jizzymcwizzy]

hhaha he missed the first set of lyrics on the breakdown :D

stil love them though :)

[XXsuicidesilenceXX]

i cant stand bands like dragonforce and fuck anybody who doesnt think that despised icon is fuckin brutal,

[hobo92]

i like dragonforce!

but they are NOTHING compared to Despised Icon!

haha.

[jaba06]

the fact that you say that its better when bands have long hair while playing metal is a FAIL, its not about the looks its about the music you ASS... i couldn't careless if the vocalist looked like Clay Aiken <_<

[ANBU136]

man i wish i could've seen the crowd for the sick-ass break down.

[carlsonsen]

hardcore FTW

[BrutalChainsawMan33]

They're fucking good live.

[iAmCaINaDiAIN]

\m/('.')\m/

[iAmCaINaDiAIN]

Canadian Metal FTW

[billniggerish]

that breakdown rips me apart. im excited to fucking go crazy at Summer slaughter with these guys. i dont see why everyone doesnt?

[jh0nnnn]

it was so much simpler back in the day when the metal vocalists had enough hair to mosh. the amount of acting they have to go trough to fill the gaps is bordering greek tragedy.

[locxxroc]

what the fuck are you on about???

[Tydude411]

according to you, your not a metal unless you got long hair

[xmattz1x]

favorit band out of canada

[wewantgore666]

fucking eh buddie!

lol

[chinoto]

shit... this one is slowed down too...

[WillWatson23]

this band is all about the drummer

[Fraeg]

is it alex?

[locxxroc]

wrong

alexgrind

=]

[PJ6sic6]

alex looks like he has tourettes

[theaceofspades30]

nah he doesnt... i have tourettes =P.

[xsamuraifonzx]

their singer wearing the grey shirt looks like a little bomb waiting to go off,he releases punches here and there like any minute hes gonna explode into a dancing machine

[darkstarbd321]

amazing

[chavoiscool]

i see bald spot

[xsamuraifonzx]

lol i see it too

[chavoiscool]

ahahahaha

If I had a bold spot id look just like him

I like his(alex's) stage performance more then the other singers(marois)

[sFXNe]

That was awesome. Absolutely brutal.

Although I was a tad disappointed with the "Forget the man you were" from Steve.

[XbloodplusX]

fuck there great live

[asianinvasion12]

Why do people find pig squeals to be so "intense" or "brutal"? Alex Erian is, in my opinion, the better of the two vocalists. The guy who "growls" has no tone to his vocals. If they got a better vocalist, I think they would sound alot better.

[Samtheheretic666]

while i respect alex, he essentially has only one scream: a slightly modified hardcore bark. he can make it a LITTLE higher, but the reason steve marois is a better vocalist is because he has a better range. he has an alterable pig squeal, a death growl, and the high scream. so, he has a larger range than alex. thats why.

[AndrewMacDuff]

Agreed. Steve's the better of the two.

[Samtheheretic666]

for sure. while i definatly love alex too, and ive met them both, steve just has more range. but theyre both vital parts of the band.

[AndrewMacDuff]

Yeah, I don't think Despised would be the same without the dynamics of both of them. They're a great duo.

[Samtheheretic666]

yeah. thats why despised's first album wasnt as good as their other two, because they didnt have the dynamic duo of alex and steve

[asianinvasion12]

Yeah, Alex has no range. But Steve's growl is pretty weak.

[Samtheheretic666]

dude, no way. steve has one of the sickest growls ive ever heard. i mean, yeah, there are people who might be a little better at that specific thing, but i think his growl fuckin kills.

[Romps0008]

Please stop comparing deathcore and nu-metal.

Great live!

[xDilemmachinex]

Alex is the better of the two I think. Sick band either way.

[patcurse]

pour tous ceu qui dise que c poche men manger dla criss de marde les gars vous buchez comme le criss c fou serieu vous ete ma fierté quebecoise

vive lquebec hardcore criss

[SolitaireUnraveling6]

WHERE THE FUCK IS HIS HAT!?

[wewantgore666]

hahahaha comedy man.

[potkers]

ye bries are not bad, but both vox just stand in place. that looks shitty.

[LlamaNick]

the singers don't have much stage presence...

[Samtheheretic666]

what are you talking about? they walk around, bend over, head bang, pump their fists. what else can they do? i mean, theyre no corey taylor, but theyre still good.

[IApostasyI]

Corey Taylor? Please tell me you're kidding.

[Samtheheretic666]

no, im not. i know theres alot of hate for slipknot, but theres no denying that hes a charismatic front man. and, if you hate slipknot for whatever reason, id ask you to listen to the song metabolic, and tell me thats not heavy as fuck. yeah, its not as heavy as despised, but its fuckin brutal.

[IApostasyI]

I use to be a hardcore SK fan, until I realized that they aren't even that good.

[TheFunnybone]

well, i just disagree. There's definitely more technical stuff out there, but their riffs are fucking great, theyre lyrics are some of the best out there, their extremely intense, and theyre dedicated to their fans. You cant really argue with simple taste. you dont like em, i do. the important thing is we both love despised.

[wewantgore666]

me to man i think everyone does before they "grow up" and find real metal.

[Samtheheretic666]

and dude, you cant say i havent "grown up and found real metal". lemme read you my ipod on shuffle for a few songs: cattle decapitation, lamb of god, cradle of filth, slayer, beneath the massacre, annotations of an autopsy, job for a cowboy, and slipknot. you dont have to like all that, but dont try to say you or anyone is more mature for not liking slipknot. and btw, all of the guys in slipknot listen to old school death metal and grindcore, among other things.

[jackncokejr]

slipknots not brutal man. they suck ciack

[Samtheheretic666]

i agree, theyre not brutal like despised is. but theyre brutal in a different way. the lyrics are emotional, but not emo bullshit emotional. like, genuinely deep shit. and you really hear that in the screams, which arent pig squeals or anything, but are heavy screams regardless. listen to this song so see what i mean. listen to it with an open mind. btw everyone is slipknots into shit like entombed, anal cunt, and slayer. three of them were in a grindcore band called anal blast in the 90s.

[wewantgore666]

no man corey taylor is a lil rock star bitch who thinks hes the greatest now.

slipknot blows man and there nothning special.

i can find u 100 different songs that are way more heavyer then that shit.

[Samtheheretic666]

yeah, slipknots not a heavy band when compared to despised, or deicide, or whitechapel, or anything else brutally heavy. but they ARE heavy at times. they have a big musical range, and arent afraid to do what they want, acoustic, wicked heavy, heavy/melodic, sing, scream, whatever. and corey taylor is in no way a little rock star bitch. hes one of the only genuine people in "popular" music. listen to interviews with him, and read about his past. hes a serious dude, with serious lyrics.

[AndrewMacDuff]

Slipknot rules at what they do.

[Samtheheretic666]

thats very true. theyre talented musicians, even if you dont like em.

[QkumberMDK]

yep i know the guitars can shred, but they don tdo it in their songs? thats why i dont lik ethem

[Samtheheretic666]

well, listen to metabolic. thats pretty sick. and parts of the blister exists is pretty crazy. and most of all the solos in vermillion and pulse of the maggots are sick. especially pulse of the maggots. go check those songs out, and then say they dont shred. its true, they dont shred like death metal bands or grindcore bands, but that doesnt mean they dont shred sometimes.

[Condemnedbass]

part of being a great musican is knowing when and when not to shred and show off. and this band isnt about showing off, theyre about making heavy fuckin metal and just being mean as fuck. go listen to dragon force if you want to hear shredding all day. if you want brutal fuckin metal, this is where its at man

[QkumberMDK]

why bother responding to a ccomment 7 months later. I bought ills of a modern man such a long time ago lol. At the time i would rather listen to music with more high screams but im more openminded now

[ChopperCity47]

there the best band i have seen live, go see them on a 3ft stage and they will jump on you doing a pile on onthe crowd, alex is jumping around the whole time like hes opening up a pit, they scream right in your face on purpose, spitting beer, you have to see this band before u judge.

[Samtheheretic666]

for sure dude. i saw them for the second time 8 days ago. as always, they blew my fuckin mind. talked to al (guitarist) for a little while too. he signed my ticket, and so did the bassist, the other guitarist, and al's mom hahah.

[chimaira666]

fuck awsome video!!!

[blackdahliamurder696]

that pig squeel and breaking down is bone chilling.

[breedude598]

are you kidding me he did amazing on the pig vocals for a live performance

[BigT4313]

I love this new dual singer combo. Heavy metal for life!

[Boneless0r]

"lmao the hardcore vocalist looks hilariosl at the start when hes shaking his head and pretending to drum, awesome band.."

you know, he once WAS the drummer :P

[Vault3r]

Pft. They need both Steve and Alex. A show without either of them feels like a different band.

[DaSk8er87cky]

Despised rules

that breakdown gives me goosebumps every time I listen to this song

[Boneless0r]

hahaha i actually edited the music video and put subtitles in it, so i can scream to it :P

watch?v=3dcEKxtezZU

[SeizeTheMoment89]

Damn, the sound awesome.

[weezamon]

[BrakeMoth]

Heh, you must not listen to a lot of DI then.

*clicks thumbs down for ignorance*

[gavlegend]

[d22587]

theyve gotten somewhat better, their live performances are starting to sound more like their studio shit. either that or theyve gotten more raw with the producing. either way, it aint as bad as they used to be.

[Joe1215]
