Converge - Fault & Fracture

[kornrule12]

Easily my favourite Converge tune. Such a powerful yet catchy chorus.

[kjrody21]

I bet if he every forgots the lyrics he just screams something that goes along you cant even tell what hes saying anywyas LOL

[WarGoatForestWolf666]

@kjrody21 I often wonder if he's actually saying what he's written, or just random shit. Great band though.

[RocKdrigOVII]

extreme!!!

[mikkoyay]

Converge is not a band, it's an art installation.

[ScrabBrain]

<3

[confederateman]

ben looks so stoked haha

[sammyg2722]

@confederateman I would be too if I were playing drums for Converge. Honestly... if you listen to what he's playing. That's pure satisfaction.

[adrugfreeamerica]

this is what extreme music is about

[AMeN420]

HELLO METAL FEST, WE'RE CONVERGE, FUCK YOU!

[schizma111]

the crowd was all dead after that. fuckin priceless.

[jessthe86]

the trust we lost!

[lukerr87]

im wondering how jacob bannon dont tear his vocal chords to shreads screaming that awesomely! still this is freakin' Awesome =D

[76543wet]

,,..they should play distance and meaning live.. hell to pay ..i mean they played jane doe live!! so,why not distance and meanig..fuck

[76543wet]

..god damn..they should play distance and meaning live..i swear ..this where so fucking awesome..

[smokekushinsocal]

jesus fucking christ, the most pleasurable earfuck

[PedrotheWombat]

i know they have energy, ben is really great at drums, and they put all they have into the live performance, but their albums sound soooo much better.

[schwarzblatt]

totally Ben on drums.

[nightofthelepus]

i never get tired of this song

[KamradO]

lol @ the crowd. Guess they were like "... ehm. WTF was dat?"

[MacTobey]

sick!

[BurnTheShore]

So incredible.

[TSBTF1728]

Converge can't really be captured on video. Even the albums only do half-justice.

Does anybody know if that's Ben on drums or somebody else?

[zedrein18]

whoa! these guys do not fuck around!

[elzombo]

I just love this band!!!....great live sound!!!

[badgermate]

the lead singer is the worst..he traipses around the stage like a retard occasionally bending over (which i assume is to get fucked up the ass by something called "talent") and blurts out any old shit (that comes to his mind) to match his pathetic excuse for a career, he has no talent at all, and nobody even try and convince me he does. because all you'll say is " you don't understand" followed by a verse of "fag fag fag fag"...listen to some proper music if you think this shit is good.

[stabyourcat]

Read his lyrics. He's an amazing writer. Do some research. Converge are one of the most influential and respected bands in the underground.

[chocobebear]

I think you do not know what you are talking about.

You may not even be an artist, maybe not even a musician.

Don't judge art for what it is.

This is art.

[utmobbad]

thats "bark bark bark" thank you very much.

Read his lyrics tho, extremely well written.

And listen to the CD stuf if u want to hear his voice better, its a killer voice.

[paodomingo]

what a loser

[OreillyORLY]

choke on this and die on cancer you worthless piece of crap

[badgermate]

good argument mate..you sick fucked up son of a bitch

[andbluesky]

This is for blurDylanblur: if you listen to the first track of Jane Doe, you can easily recognize that Jacob vocals are distorted.. It's not due to the mic or other things!

By the way, Fault and Fracture is fuckin' amazing

[kowtpr187]

hey..marwutz is not even from the USA so he probably doesnt understand our culture..I feel fo ya dawg!.seriosly,but he probably wouldnt understand sarcasm and other things as well if he cant listen to music and just wanna rawk out!

[Jabberwockee]

fuuuuuuuuuuck

[lukerr87]

good vocals man

[blurDylanblur]

He doesn't distort his vocals live or in studio, the vocals sound different on albums because of the different types of mics and recording style's implemented.

[CLYLEORPHANED]

jake doesnt use a vocal disorter. cky1066 your talking shit to people but you dont even know what your talking about.

[stelderhaiderman]

no,he does not use a vocal disorter.

[Haymaker17]

their drummer is incredible. and so is this band.

[cky1066]

does anyone know he uses a vocal distorter? theyre supposed to sound like that.

and if you dont like converge dont comment them.

i dont go to your faggoty avenged sevenfold videos and comment on sinister gates haircut.

fuck.

[xXxFatalErrorxXx]

Amen, brother.

[johopahopa]

im with you one that one

[alexcreate]

i still don't know about the distorter. i've been wondering it for awhile.

[marwutz]

He probably only distorts his vocals in the studio.

Because live, there would be too much feedback when he swings the mic around all the time...

And the vox sound like shit live. (well, atleast in this video...)

[Westfalldrums4]

Why do people constantly talk about the shitty vox. Yeah they might not be "Powerful" but I would much rather have a scream like his than the same exact pitch you hear in underoath/TDWP/etc...

Also how come there is only one vid of heartless? that song ownes all their other songs

[hotpansy]

i just cant match the words to what he's singing

[Haymaker17]

yeah the fault and fracture part is the only time i can understand what hes saying. but the lyrics to this song are incredible

[marwutz]

because the other two support him there.

It's a shame, really...

[kowtpr187]

you get up there and scream your ass off and attain a fraction of the respect that J. Bannon has and maybe...maybe one day people will respect that comment..a shame..no..GReat performance!

[marwutz]

Sorry, "a shame" is way to hard, my english isn't best.

I think "a pity" works better.

Btw - I'm not talking about the performance, I'm talking about the message.

And I don't really get the message from the noises he makes there, though I really like converge.

[wsuwinger]

isn't that kind of contradicting?

[wsuwinger]

that message was meant for marwutz

[marwutz]

Why?

I really like the creativity and message in their music and I think if mr. bannon was using a technique that made it possible to understand, what he is singing without reading the lyrics, they'd be a better band. Because the things he has to say are really deep and meaningful.

Makes me angry thinking about this wasted potential.

[stelderhaiderman]

those are no shitty vocals,at converge live concerts the sound ingeneers try to get as much power out of the voice.but this is a big festival,you cannot call the engeneers for every song

[hotpansy]

i wish i knew what he was singing.

seriously

[RJN88420]

look it up.. i guaruntee u the words'll make u cry

[Lardname]

No they didnt, you faggit.

[RaymondD]

lol The crowd doesnt even know how to respond to that shit.....

[krisbr]

fuckin rights, best song off jane doe

[cmblackcloud]

No! Jake is the Shit!!!!

without him converge will be nothing!

[ritamacnielishot]

sick band fuckin intense as hell nate newton is the shit

[spyder2001]

nate looks a bit like pedro out of napoleon dynamite i think XD awesome bassist none the less

[Zeta9966]

seems like the mike only catches the beginning of each scream... cuz I know he sounds way better than this on other live videos.... it's weird... either it's a bad mix on the mike or his voice was dying.

[schwarzblatt]

easily one of the best hardcore bands live. as far as raw energy goes, bannon OWNS.

[Gigex]

ummm...yeah the end was pretty fucking intense...sweet...but seriously wtf was with those shitty vocals...it's like some fucking pelican mating call XD

[ch847]

You obviously don't know dick about Converge. Go get hit by a bus.

[Rattlesnake840]

wow....

[smigacz]

amaizng

[shrapnelenema]

circle pit

[nightofthelepus]

oh my God i cant wait for the new album

[LetsRatherNot]

I love this song, it gets so incredibly intense towards the end.

[klopklopp]

These guys are so freaking good and i was so pissed when i wass going to go see them and the show got freaking cancled

[KOLLERM998]

yea it was holy fuck

[cripplesunday]

my god that was good
