August Burns Red - A Shot Below the Belt

[MoronicDistribution]

Nice name, dude. Also - nice video/quality.

[Kostas1993Gelo]

I'm stuck in between two worlds in a maze of dreams and thoughts.

[icarusdies12]

this band is really rad :)

[3rdReichFromTheSun88]

tru dat, you can't spell crap without rap

[house1918tyler]

@3rdReichFromTheSun88 this needs more thumbs up

[Hal0zen]

a shot in the nuts?

[santamagac]

beast

[xChasingNothingx]

he left on the extra 3 minutes to the video for us to recover from the amazingness

[GhostMan1408]

I requested this while waiting in line for a haunted house.. not much headbangers.. So I shot em below the belt..

[theMOTAs95]

all you haters, talk crap. take a shot below the belt

[BoundToFail]

yoo this video is awesome ... we liked.... if you dig this band then check us out !!!!!

[629bigk]

i hate when a vid has 3 extra min of nothing!!! wtf

[kat123791]

@629bigk those 3 extra mins is the time i need to relax after such an amazing band played a song that made me jizz 27 times.

[signedinblood1]

I just thought about the name of this song... oww

[Sk8erPunk8]

After 4:10 the song gets reeeeaaaaallll boring

[kat123791]

@Sk8erPunk8 thats just the song resting from its epicness.

[Sk8erPunk8]

@kat123791 Thats a really good point. But in that case every one of their songs should have it

[kat123791]

@Sk8erPunk8 yup.

[iHoguey]

I don't want to take a shot below the belt.. xD

[RushXv]

Why the fuck isn't this available on iTunes?

[tsm1th611]

it is on itunes man, its just entitled throwing punches

[whathellmfaoooooooo]

Motionless In White totally knock this off of ABR, ha. Smh.

[94amreed]

Matt Greiner was awesome back then too.. hard to believe they were only like 17

[A7XRules4life]

@94amreed Best drummer ever lol so only 17 and stuff in this album? God I wonder how anyone gets so good at instruments then. Damn I need to learn how to place shit like this.

[lslreverbnation]

First August Burns Red song I ever heard, still love this fucking song

[Zuschlagwerk]

Most epic band on earth !

Most epic breakdown on earth !

I love August Burns Red !

♥

[OvercomeTheFear93]

I thought this song was called Throwing Punches.

[lucariosleftshoulder]

@OvercomeTheFear93 it was mislabeled on itunes. A shot below the belt is the actual title

[MinimalKingdom]

DAT INTRO.

[EpiicDeMiiC]

best ABR song imo.

[Creolethug]

i wanna watch someone make a cover

[lacrosseplayer113]

amazing breakdown at 3:20



[dankornusaf]

@z0zmgz0mg12 because u love music

[TehKrakerzGuy]

5 kids from Pennsylvania making purely badass metal.

I bet if I heard/was into this back in 2005, I would just be blown away at what potential you can have fresh out of high school. Here I am in my final year in high school still trying to find out what I wanna do with my life once I leave.

If I start a metal band just like ABR, I want to show everyone what you can do with age not mattering just like this album did.

[matthias2986]

@TehKrakerzGuy hey im 25 and still have a vague idea what i wana do with my life, but for some reason i feel im going to die soon, maybe its my lifestyle...? but fuck it, ive always been impulsive and my life is fuckin great the way it is. i think knowing that is more important then knowing what career i want.

[drunkmasta69]

you cant fuck with this!!!

[shampoodaking]

i remember me and my boy wills first concert and he was tryin to hardcore dance and kicked someone in the nads

[MaxDamageProductions]

11 people need a shot below the belt

[Ylltimate]

The part where the vocals starts sounds like old-Sonic Syndicate, as in Eden Fire. D:

[Avenger4343]

0:14 - 0:29 or 0:00 - 7:41

[z0mgz0mg12]

People ask me, how can i go from rap and also listen to this. I say, they're both awesome.

[neehaaw]

@z0mgz0mg12 just say to them "im not a narrow minded cunt, like most of today's society"

[TRuTube22]

@neehaaw by saying that most of society is narrow minded and closing the book makes you a narrow minded cunt

[neehaaw]

@TRuTube22 I am :)

[TRuTube22]

@neehaaw it was a contradictory statement was what i was getting at

[PatriarchCreations]

@TRuTube22 What's wrong with being narrow minded? Being that August Burns Red is a very Christian band, Matthew 7:14 says "Because strait is the gate; narrow is the way, and there few be who find it." It says that narrow is the road less travelled, or as the poem by Robert Frost; "The Road Less Traveled". Narrow mindedness isn't a bad thing necessarily.

Though, the statement that society is narrow minded is wrong. It isn't. But don't slander someone for being narrow minded.

[TRuTube22]

@PatriarchCreations@z0mgz0mg12 just say to them "im not a narrow minded cunt, like most of today's society" thats your statement. If most of society is narrow minded, then wouldnt the road less traveled be open minded ideology? You lack a base of thought, It is narrow minded, it isnt, it is, what is it. You slandered people for being nrrow minded, or open minded depending on which way the wind is blowing apparently. And yes, nice interpretation there, you could interpret that quote any way.

[A7XRules4life]

@z0mgz0mg12 Fuck yeah, man. Like I love some rap/pop stuff like Eminem, whose voice is just epic IMO and then these guys are my favorite band. I can like everything.

[TheDevil0019]

@z0mgz0mg12 i have that with this and dubstep....complete opposites xD but i still like both :]

[KUSHAHOLICxX]

@z0mgz0mg12 exactamundo my man

[davidoque]

@z0mgz0mg12 rap is no "awesome" -__-

[CatieRockstarr23]

@z0mgz0mg12 after this i listen to opera XD

[AccidentAmbulance]

@z0mgz0mg12 because music isn't labels. you can't label art, just like you can't label emotion. if someone connects with both artists, it doesn't matter what genre it is. in the end it's all music

[pilonvids]

@z0mgz0mg12 fuck rap

[Dirtybutt123]

@pilonvids listen to kid cudi - ghost, then tell me fuck rap. expand your horizons, i listen to multiple genres because there are good artists in all of them, you just gotta sift out all the shitty ones

[tashkentcity]

@pilonvids

Scientifically proven, that rap decreases your ability to think normally. Simply saying - you get stupid listening to rap.

[Konformation07]

@tashkentcity Sure it is, so I guess a valedictorian of his class is stupid for listening to rap. So, does listening to this make you smarter?

[tashkentcity]

@Konformation07

This music is "alive". It's been played by people at that time (no computer or synthesizer beats). So, I guess, yeah ;) This is somewhat opera of our days.

[Konformation07]

@tashkentcity No it doesn't. Some metal music uses computer it doesn't have any significant advantage. Listening to rap doesn't make you an idiot.

[tashkentcity]

@Konformation07

Listening to rap lyrics does. What do they sing about? Money, bitxhes, drugs? What kind of sense do those lyrics carry? Non-sense.

[Konformation07]

@tashkentcity Truth be told you are just scratching the surface and judging the whole which is stupid. Most rap is about serious issues and relevant problems. Proper rap for the most part is a reflection on society. However, honestly it doesn't make you dumb listening to the lyrics no matter what it is. You were dumb to begin with to follow through and live your life in the way of the lyrics.

[kmkshakey]

@z0mgz0mg12 good music is good music, and its all in the eye of the beholder.

[neehaaw]

Would you Pusswimps stop arguing and just enjoy the music? Dance however you wanna dance, dance like fucking Shakira for all I care, just rock out with your cock out.

[cazmaestro]

@neehaaw hahaaaa ;) that made my day

[lonestarw0lf]

like/dislikes? who cares.. its the same thing different day,you guys ponder the most trivial things,music is created through inspiration,what some1 else connects with another might not,thats understandable,and although your input is welcome,dont go bashing some1 for theirs... the hate vibe you guys are putting off are unbearable,which is why i mostly dont add to it,but eh. my 2 cents... gr8 band though.. friend showed me um and got addicted to them right away,now im hooked!

[Hellaluyeah]

Hardcore dancing? That's the dumbest thing I've ever heard of. "Look, at me! I'm throwing punshes at the air. But don't get too close or you might catch one." Why go to a concert at all, when you don't want people close to you? That's paradox! For me, it will always be the good old mosh pit, where accidents do happen and people don't react with a "omg your invading my private space"!

[KYamada416]

I always thought the first few lyrics to the song were "Don't you ever sack me", cause the title of the song is a shot below the belt

[bart123levo]

aw man you gotta hxc dance to the intro

[chrall92]

@bart123levo oh,yes...and maybe screaming a little : )

[imagayfox]

@bart123levo ....no. Go listen to brokencyde of you wanna hardcore dance

[bart123levo]

@imagayfox nonononononononono not brokencyde, theyre gay

[AvenSevGed]

@imagayfox Are you fucking stupid? Brokencyde is the Lamest exuse for a hardcore band at ALL, fucking horrible. Never say that again.

[imagayfox]

@AvenSevGed Im relating the gayness of hardcore dancing to the gayness of brokencyde. They are both more homosexual than my username

[ZzohzZCloak]

Sittin' in my room headbangin' and mom walks in thinks im retarded. It's all good.

[melistentodeathmetal]

@ZzohzZCloak

Same here man, same here. I'm headbangin' to some good ol' ABR, when suddenly someone walks in and has a ''WTF?!'' look on their face. Brilliant.

[Railfan88]

@ZzohzZCloak same here lol

[Hockey1Is1Life]

@ZzohzZCloak heck yeah dude, im headbagin at school. LOL info tech :D

[twenty5psi]

@ZzohzZCloak

are you 12?

[DeathcoreSoftie]

@twenty5psi Are you three?

[Zachu24v2]

@DeathcoreSoftie im 1

[TexasInJuly519]

@ZzohzZCloak my mom got used to that shit, she just thinks im a freak:P

[mayesman11]

just stand in the back with some JWH-18. Get blazed out of your mind and love everything... Me and my buddy were talking at the Disturbed Avenged Seven Fold Concert and came to the conclusion that Avenged Seven Fold wasn't real. They were just an idea everyone has........... I know its BS cause I was high as shit........ but I still kind of believe it... I was watching a mosh pit in front of me.... but for some reason I felt like they were behind me.... but yeah... no movement required at all...

[mayesman11]

No.

[m0nsterfr3ak77]

isnt this song called 'Throwing Punches" on the actual album??

[thekidofpt1]

i think thrill seeker has to be their best album

[Slash8205]

jordan you obviously havent been to a real concert because i guarantee youd be scared the living shit out of to fuck with any of the huge bitches in the mosh.

[dannielledisaster]

haha, love this song

[tattoojim182]

hardcore dancing and all the windmilling bullshit is for fags. looks retarded

[ttdoubleg]

@tattoojim182 woah woah windmilling isnt stupid. this is coming from a metal head experementing with screamo so far i fuckin hate it. ABR isnt bad though. windmilling started with metallica and king diamond and also budgie. thrash metal started mosh pits. this so called 'Hard core dancing" is faggish and i hae ppl that do. now that being said everyone enjoy YOUR music who cares what ppl say about it. But i think im ganna give up on screamo and head back on over to the REAL metal agian.

[headdonkeys]

I don't call it a mosh pit if it's just HxC dancing (air fighting) a real pit is like a wall-of-death or circle pit or something. IMO atleast.

[LegitPlease]

-Calls doctor- "MY EARS ARE BLEEDING!!"..."what happened?"..."I just listened to august burns red!"

[plasticopeople]

@LegitPlease haha fuck you go listen to some breathe carolina you faggot

[LegitPlease]

@plasticopeople LOL breathe carolina sucks dick kid and so do you.

[plasticopeople]

@LegitPlease lol i know that thats why i listen to abr and why you might as well go listen to them if the only thing you have to do in your pathetic little life is troll on abr vids.

[headdonkeys]

@LegitPlease Try listening to The Faceless \m/-.-\m/

[LegitPlease]

-Calls doctor- "MY EARS ARE BLEEDING!!"..."what happened?"..."I just listened to august burns red!"

[LegitPlease]

-Calls doctor- "MY EARS ARE BLEEDING!!"..."what happened?"..."I just listened to august burns red!"

[philipcannon]

Don’t you understand me?

This cloud over my head is not okay.

There are things that I need to get done.

The burden I have been carrying is not my idea of fun

[goulddd11]

This song is so amazing, its hard to believe that they've improved so much since this too!

[RodSteeleINC]

this is the best song in the world funkmetal i know what you mean

[jeremsky23]

this band totally rock \m/.... fuCk U kodoichiKumoRi.... Go Fart Ur Mom

[ChildrenOfJesus]

Like Barbarian but more slowly

[Maschinepistol7]

just.instant.love.... \m/

[GarrettBurnsRed]

"what a bittersweet symphony life is, but i wouldn't have it any other way." beautiful lyrics in a song that makes me want to rip your freaking face off.

[Itsnameisgundam]

umm, good song.

'nuff said

[Trippy420Hippy]

Just plain brutal.

[triplectray12345]

yall are fucking stupid.

"Hardcore dancing" is about dancing.

assholes try to start fights in pits.

[larry52333]

True.

[zerosic22]

AMEN TO THAT!!!

[RodSteeleINC]

@triplectray12345 FUCKIN RETARD YOU HAVE NO IDEO WHAT YOUR TALKIN ABOUT I HOPE YOUR PARENTS DIEEEEEEE

[jimnjesse]

@RodSteeleINC stfu...youve disqualified yourself enough

[jordanpipes]

@triplectray12345 "assholes try to start fights in pits" right and pussies will do almost anything to stay out of them ahahahah

[JakballGene]

@triplectray12345 Hardcore dancers are fucking idiots.

[sacramentdecriss]

@JakballGene yessss!!!

[snoopitydoopity]

@triplectray12345 ahaha Idk about you but thats pretty much hardcore dancing swinging fist and kicks, so sorry if you know naturally everybody starts fighting when a fist hits them in the mouth.

[oLookaChickenPromo]

@snoopitydoopity Exactly.

And they look so retarded doing it to be honest.

Why not just fight? so much more fun.

Or circle pit, whatever suits your fancy.

Alls I know is when I go to concerts, hardcore dancers die.

[SSMusicManiac]

@triplectray12345 Gotta agree with you dude,

Mosh pits are there for the pure energy of the brutal heavy bits of songs,

if some prick starts a fight in a pit for no reason,

then it's pretty pathetic and hardly musicianship.

[mattgotowned]

@SSMusicManiac that and he gets his ass kicked by the rest of the pit.

[SSMusicManiac]

@mattgotowned Hell yeah, didn't say he was gonna get away with it, just stating he's an idiot, but what happens after is where the fun comes from ;)

[patterson1581]

@triplectray12345  talk shit get hit

[J420M0N3Y]

this song owns

[KodoichiKumori]

dude, hxc dancing is just a fun way to start fights. seriously, hxc dancers usually want to "accidentally" start a fight, so they can get their daily fill of thrashing fun.

[boythefool]

you fail. "hxc" sounds fucking shite. If i go to a gig i just say im off for a dance? get in the middle AWAY from everyone else and dance. Not jump all over the place and shit. Co-ordinated dancing is where its at. And if someone walks into or too near me then its their fault if they obtain a black eye (Y) im not a fight starting arsehole. Theres just some points in a song where you need to express yourself more! Like the end breakdown on this song.

[KodoichiKumori]

whatever dude. old school hardcore listeners like myself and probably even the band august burns red have our reasons. you have yours. thx for being a dick though, bitchface.

[boythefool]

old school isnt ABR, its terror, hatebreed, symphony in peril. And dick and bitchface? fair nuff, i'll accept those insults.

least im not a 22 year old yank faggot who doesnt know his arse from his elbow :)

fuck you and have nice day :)

[darkomen1290]

man, moshing is way more fun than dancing, and definitely suits this music way better and gets out more aggression. plus in GOOD moshpits, stupid fights dont start, only real douchebags get knocked the fuck out. other than that, the comeradery of a pit is amazing

[iBeCreePiin]

@boythefool what a faggot

[boythefool]

@iBeCreePiin shut it cunt

[iBeCreePiin]

@boythefool oh boy look at this kid talkin shit on youtube. what pussy ass bitch

[boythefool]

@iBeCreePiin i dont think anyone cares cunt

[PorQueBelfs]

@boythefool cunt is a bad word :( dont use it man.. didnt your mom ever teach you those manners :( thats like saying your a cumm sucking sharkboy.. :( its not nice.. ( totaly joking.. dont take me serously lol)

[BrownTrout117]

@boythefool you are definitley a fool

[boythefool]

@BrownTrout117

no shit.....

your definitely a brown trout

[BrownTrout117]

@boythefool I dont think brown trout can talk...i most certainly am not because you arent worth the few words i have for you :D

[boythefool]

@BrownTrout117

wheres this hostility come from then? cos you seen me call someone a cunt so you presume im the 'bad guy'?

no need, just enjoy the music

[fortlansing]

@boythefool

dude whats your problem, people just want to watch there video's without fuckwads like you screwing everyone that says something "questionable" to you!

go listen to Enya, faggot.

[boythefool]

@fortlansing

go back through all the previous comments, you'll find that im the good guy in all of this (Y)

[fortlansing]

@boythefool

ok I agree, every one else is kind of being faggish over "hardcore dancing is batter than moshing' and shit, honestly who really gives two shits about what is better (although my personal opinion is that hard core dancing looks gay)

[cgholds]

@fortlansing i lol'd at the enya remark

[fortlansing]

@BrownTrout117

way do be a smart ass douche nozzle...

[xLucyx976]

amazing album cover, amazing song, love it!

[111389]

my grandpa used to tell me wish in one hand, shit in the other, see which one fills up faster. haha. naw, but a7xrules4life ur right, amazing! haha. both! and also a7x is amazing lol

[sheehan666]

I read that in a book one time. I like that one. I bet your gandpa read stephen king.

[A7XRules4life]

I wish I could play guitar like them. Hell, I wish I could design cover art like this. lol

[newbaberuth]

@A7XRules4life i cant believe the rev died.

[A7XRules4life]

I saw it and my only thought was "intriguing" and Idk if I even spelled that word right. lol

lol I'm not such a big fan of them anymore.

[newbaberuth]

@A7XRules4life ya me niether. but anyone that even new of a7x i think should know. i admit though their newest album is horrible. i like waking the fallen. but look at me. ranting about a7x on an ABR vid. lol.

[nagimohoraman]

i love this band =D

[Trippy420Hippy]

Now headbanging and moshing rocks, but some of these moves that the kids do nowadays are a bit stupid. But headbanging is the best way to thrash!

[StevieHeartcore]

I bet ya mean hXc dancing?^^

Yeah... the best way to describe it is "having fights till death with invisible bees" :o

[Trippy420Hippy]

Agreed

[blubbbla1987]

I like "epileptic kids trying to swim"

[xStraightEdgeXXX]

@StevieHeartcore lmao

[nocompromise0]

@StevieHeartcore

The Bees are dancing too!

[DyenastyT4]

aight...

[DyenastyT4]

i thought the name to this song was throwing punches?

[CoreyShores69]

it is. there's two names bruh.

[Shadowcasterx4ffc]

Guess I should edit the name in my iTunes library?

[yekshemesh4alig]

intro wise this one wins, Seventh Trumpet is epic overall!!

[sprnv4]

starts with breakdown!! fckn awesome!

[alexmetalcore]

Fuck yeah

[possy4216]

this song deserves more than 39000 views

[statesolid]

Best song off of thrill seeker, intro is crazy
