Falling Up - Streams Of Woe At Acheron (NEW SONG!)

[boonski13]

good job

[NewLifeAwakening11]

I have just one question and I may sound dumb but what does it all mean?

[lostinhair1234]

ohmigosh I love this song so much.. and the fact that this video was uploaded on my birthday.. it makes me feel so special. loljk but seriously

[tapleyman]

they have a new song out called diamnds out now after 2 years of no new music after this song. check out the new song!

[sonicandmariorulz]

fangs. one of my favorite albums of all time. beggars by thrice is pretty good too, though. i need to figure out my favorite things...

[Robert94115]

The Rivers of Hell are Acheron, woe

Styx, Hatred

Phlegyan, Boiling Blood

The frozen lake of Sin, Coctyus

[Kaylynnlove]

It's called "Streams of woe at Acheron" because Acheron is one of the four rivers in hell. According to Milton, anyway.

[coktale]

what the hell is this shit...

[sonicandmariorulz]

@coktale awesomeness, duh.

[coktale]

@sonicandmariorulz kidding? XD

[sonicandmariorulz]

@coktale ah... well... my bad.

[abramQ12]

pretty weird song, but really kool=)

[ccrstarpanda]

i have no idea what this song means, or if means anything at all, it's just awesome and that's all that matters

[hispanic15yezzir]

i likey

[oneyearwithmybaby]

DANG THIS BAND ROCKS!!! THEY HAVE SO MUCH GOOD SONGS!!!

[123bridges]

Falling UP is back together! Spread the word!

[simeon58]

Everybody check out their Facebook and pledge some money for them to make a new album through their Kickstart profile!

[Bennylivingston]

What is the meaning of this song?

[RhinoBarbarian]

@Bennylivingston

Hard to explain since it is part of a concept album.

[Ryanbassist]

These guys remind me of Sum 41

[bluejidk]

lovee this song sooo much!

[zzvvoonnee24]

The background melody sounds like its from some imaginary world, I cannot explain what exactly I mean, but I feel that when I listen it. Maybe it will fit to story of some video games with magic, especially the sound from 3:22.

[RhinoBarbarian]

@zzvvoonnee24

It is from a concept album so that makes perfect sense. Get the album, listen to the wongs, and read the booklet.

[Joshdrummer123]

i love it how the drummer looks like a baked monkey

[linkinpao]

Wish I could understand what their lyrics mean....lol.

[PercyS0uLFiRePh03niX]

Please tell me the meaning of the lyrics. Whats Acheron in this context? Whats this Acheron river. I never heard of it. I prefer a long but good ANSWER TO A SHORT.

[SavageReb72]

Falling Up had a great sound. Alternative, cutting edge, and totally beat to a different drum. Whereas some Christian bands sing a lot about Christ's love for us, Falling Up sang more about life's struggles. I admire the creativity of the Group. Having said that, Fangs was the first album where they gave no credit to the Lord and at least have one song about Him. I think that's why many were upset. I have no doubt if they return to their faith, Falling up would be successful again. God bless.

[skilletmanluvsradiou]

this band is good skillet is better!!!

[EmmyGrangerDC]

I thought the River Styx was the river to the underworld....

[FinnMetal4Life]

theres 5 rivers in hell Styx, Lethe, Cocytus,Phlegethon and Acheron

[bofablowsitall]

Now I have to find this song's story because I won't get any sleep until I know what an "Islet spider" is, and why its "gloaming"....good tune.

[RhinoBarbarian]

@bofablowsitall Islet spider is a species of spider found on the isles of Langerhans on the planet Neptuenn. As for why they are gloaming...I don't know. No, I am not making that up. I am looking at the booklet right now.

[leegotlost]

favorited

[tripthefirst]

Does anybody know what the name of the cd is? cause they say it's their "new song" but I have their new album, and it's not on there. Did they come out with another one?

[ROCKyourHEARTout918]

they came out with 'fangs' but im not sure if this song is on that cd or not. I wasn't a fan of that cd.

[AsatorTOX]

Yes....its called fangs and it is on the cd, in accordance with the story of the cd

[GERMX110]

very strong lyrics !!!

the title explains everything

[Lurageri]

not? xo

[egibbs55]

radio u is not bad but tvu is so old they play so many repeat songs yes fm 89.3 is the best

[zaikdarks]

Even awesome wouldn't fit how GOOD this song is.

[jokergaaragirl]

can anyone explain to me wut he singin about??? i love it so much i wanna understand soooooo bad

[MidnightRunnerShow]

@jokergaaragirl OK I have been trying to figure it out myself. I know that Acheron was an ancient place where people would bring there sorrows. It was and still is a river somewhere. An Archer was a leader during medieval times. Outside of that I can't figure it out. If anyone knows what it's about please post it .

[AsatorTOX]

the green lift is a way of extracting poison, and he's talking about how in the story, the children of the city all get killed by poison arrows....you can find the story online probably, its a great story, but its hard to understand

[monkeyswingluv]

@AsatorTOX whats the name of the story? i tried looking for it but i couldnt find it.

[AsatorTOX]

its in an album so far, which is called fangs! you can probably find it on amazon easily, but he's also in the process of writing a book about it

[AsatorTOX]

and ill send u a pm of the link where i found the description

[monkeyswingluv]

@AsatorTOX thanks!

[AsatorTOX]

np there

[PercyS0uLFiRePh03niX]

@AsatorTOX Could you tell me where I can read that story? And whats it called? I really want to read it since I got seriously hooked up by that song :P

[jsfdude]

@AsatorTOX

I cant find the story, share where you found it?

[OpenupyourhearttoGod]

weird but good

[grimlove527]

I honestly thought this song was by linkin park....wow lol im kind of a moron

[14ledge]

this is my one hit wonder for this band.

[Lilion22]

i can't understand all those names they use: acheron, epoison, murexa...those names sound like Final Fantasy, but are they deities or what? somebody tell me please

[elnoche]

They're part of Greek Mythology:

Acheron: a river in Hades across which the souls of the dead were carried by Charon

I dunno about the other two you asked about.

Falling Up is AMAZING!!!

[nerdypielover]

im trying to figure out what this song means... :/

[MidnightRunnerShow]

@nerdypielover Acheron: a river in Hades across which the souls of the dead were carried by Charon

[nerdypielover]

i know that i wanted to know what the rest of the song meant :p

[brunette36]

acheron is from Dante's inferno it's a river to get into the underworld.

[PMDwalkthroughsndFAQ]

awesome song

[drumms4life]

awesome god!!!

[linkinpao]

ever since i heard their songs...I CANT UNDERSTAND THEIR LYRICS AHHHH HELP ME

[IPstixrawesume]

Well, most if the time it's usually of experiences in Jessy's life and how he got through them, often asking or thanking God for help in those times. However, in the album "Fangs!," each song is part of a story that the album tells (thus making it a concept album). My advice is to get the hard copy of their CD. It explains most of it. In addition, it's part of a bigger story that Jessy is putting together as a book and a screenplay. Well, worth waiting for, in my honest opinion.

[kaneose]

i hate hearing this song on the radio, because the best part is cut out. You know, the piano ending. It is kind of an unexpected ending.

[JESUSFREAK46939]

I thought that falling up was the future of christian rock. Crashings and dawan escapes were badass, but ever since they came out with Captiva, they have dissapointed me.

So i do have a few cds of them, but ever since they went to this type of sound/music they are no the same in my opinion

[DyingInMelody]

So it seems like you're not that good in predicting the future, huh? ^^ It's still and always a matter of taste...

[Josilla94]

captiva is awesome

[MasterSergeF18]

@JESUSFREAK46939 I agree with you 100%. Dawn Escapes is my all time favorite album of any band EVER! After that album, everything went downhill. When the band broke up, I was extremely disappointed. I'll never get to see them in concert :( :( :( If anyone hears this song and thinks that the band stinks, its only the album. Their older music is wayyyyyyyyyyy better. BUY DAWN ESCAPES NOW!

[WasteXDX]

@JESUSFREAK46939 well you gotta remember, band members have been leaving the band constantly..so that could affect how they play now..

[IPstixrawesume]

@JESUSFREAK46939 Well, what I have to say is that musically, they are very progressive, and have been since the beginning. This album is honestly my favorite, because there's nothing else like this out there, and regardless of opinion, it is great. It may not be what you like, but it's musically solid.

[headinjuredkeeper]

Go to wikipedia and look up the band Falling Up and then click on the link for the Fangs album. It is trippy and so cool.

[TheGrungiest]

i WISH i had radioU. i love TVU though! i can only watch it on my computer though :/

[DyingInMelody]

Radio U is like 50% music, 50% talking. That sucks... Try theBlast FM!

[TheGrungiest]

can i listen to it online?

[DyingInMelody]

jup, just google "theblast fm christian rock radio" ... youtube does not allow me to post links in here... :/

[TheGrungiest]

that sucks. but thanks!

[divisionibanez]

Radio U is amazing. Not even close to 50% talking, i'd say less than 20%. And when they do talk it's important stuff about bands, about concerts, shows, etc. Closest thing to a perfect radio staion ever.

[Blackout8080]

I love this song =D

[NekoKirasawa]

i believe there singing about the the river acheron and the river styx in greek mythology. its said tha the river Acheron meaning woe crosses the river styx meaning hate on the jouny to the under world. its like a pasage when they talk adout the poison and the river acheron takeing them to were the'll never be found

[xoxoangleoxox]

are they just saying random phrases ?

[AkatsukiKioChan]

no, this band is notorious for their cryptic and confusing lyrics

every song has a deep biblical and spiritual meaning or message.

[82hky82]

yeah, that whats so cool about this group, great new song cant believe I havent heard it till now.

[tools747]

lol i know eh, great music but the lyrics are really random in this one...

[newlite]

I love that you put the lyrics on the video. expessically for a song like this which I have no clue what they were saying...

[bulletbob2011]

i feel bad for ppl that don't have RadioU

[madiun987]

you tube in now is very bad

[raccoon6981]

"The Green Lift" is the way they remove the poison from the children's clothes.

[FoLLoWiNHISfOOTStEpS]

can someone tell me what this songs talking about? I love it but don't understand it

[Potential4Energy]

Don't feel bad, I don't understand it either. lol!!

[eKylibrio8]

This is my top 1 song this month!!!

its so nice song!

[2GodBtheGlory]

I love this band and song~ one of my favs ... I just wish I knew what it means~ ^^

[MuteRebellion]

i have this song stuck in my head all the time and i NEVER get tired of it! <3 <3 <3

[raccoon6981]

What station do you hear them on,

headinjuredkeeper? I love them, but haven't heard them on the radio before.

[headinjuredkeeper]

Every time this comes on Radio U I hate when it ends. Incredible arrangement.

[budda8you]

woot radiou FTW

[eclips7o7]

Dude I've been listening to these guys since they first came out and they have never been anything less than AWSOME!!!! This song is one of the many songs that show their genius!!!!

~F0re^3verE^erL@st!ng~

[stefanylesliet]

i fell in love with this song !

[olympiacreations]

Falling up is the best Christian band, and as leading role models. God bless you all who are listing to this right now.

[EMGPJt]

@olmplacecreations This band is pretty awesome but you should listen to RED. They are a good band as well.

[Coolman71710011]

@EMGPJt indeed RED is definetly one of my favorite bands

[apmason]

@EMGPJt don't forget skillet. ;)

[palindrome8]

i fell in love almost instantly with this song

[ShettHappens]

Is this band christians? :O

Did'nt know that but i love them :D <3<3

[renet86]

Yep, they are christians.

There's a lot more cool christian band than you think. ^^

[shikyu312]

if you dont like them dont listin to there songs and keep ur opions to ur self

[TheShippExperience]

anyone heard word of a new music video from these guys off their new album?

TheShippExperience

Old Classics Done Right!

rate and comment.

[mamitsumamits]

Falling Up..one of my fav Christian bands! Got most of their albums....and this is my fav song from this new album. Can't help but crack up with the titles and lyrics they come up with, but their sound is Divine!!

[SirDrDude]

Lol this is amazing music and singing, and yet it makes so little sense. IT is kind of like a song that goes to amazing classical music and sounds beautiful even if it doesn't mean anythign to most people. This kind of thing takes skill, imagine what kind of songs they could make applying this ability to more well known themes!

[simeon58]

the whole album has to do with this fictional story about some guy who goes as an ambassador to another land. it's crazy. you have to know the story to understand the songs. the lead singer writes screen plays.

[crazyfreak1919]

2:49 gives me chills it's so beautiful

[09stims]

me too!!!!!!!

[rodthepimp]

cry bitchboy

[dgoke317]

I'm kind of dissapointed in the new album. It's got some good tracks but nothing like the last three albums. Guess you can't win them all. I'll wait patiently for the next one. Hopefully they stick to their roots

[mark5011]

Congratulations this music is beautiful !!!!

I just love it !!!

Portugal

[jacksballin13]

this song is freaking legit!!!

[powersonofgod]

what is the purpose of the song???

=)=)

[ps2gamer13]

this is based upon the book called Fangs and a screenplay. Its all about a village hoo ties a poison 2 arrows n tries 2 shoot them 2 neptuenn but the arrows return and poison all the children where upon they send a wanderer 2 neptuenn 2 c y the arrows returned

[IAmSkofe]

strange..... lol at least we now know what it's about

[kazangan624]

Still doesn't make sense to me...haha. I know its based on a screenplay, but I think it's pretty important to read the book/screenplay first to really understand the songs. Otherwise, it sounds like a bunch of random lyrics smothered in with amazing music, ha.

[Yanira618]

I kind of like it but What the Heck is this song about?

[majerdaniel]

Falling up rocks...like this song..\m/...

[777Fear]

The last guy on the left looks funny...

[IAmSkofe]

I love this song.

[BlessedKing93]

The blonde needs to eat...

[brilly1236]

awesome song I want it sooo bad...what store can I buy it at? please I need to know!!! To those teaching about God, an advise, no matter what there will be people whom no matter how good you preach about God wont listen because they love sin... Not sayin to give up just keep your heads up high to where God is and never look back!! God Bless ALL!!

[DyingInMelody]

you can buy and download the song on amazon. you can get their new cd "Fangs!" there, as well.

[brilly1236]

Does it cost anything to download amazon! Someone told me I can also get it at Walmart!

[DyingInMelody]

yeah, of course it's not for free. but its cheaper to download the album or even only the song than to buy the cd. (;

[POPARAZZIMONSTER90]

Having hope beats wallowing self. He (Jesus Christ) gave me that. I owe Him my all. And despite your hating people who follow after Him, He still loves you, too.

[usernamesaretricky]

Thanks for the song

And especially the lyrics

I sang to it on the radio

mostly just making noise...not real words

[DyingInMelody]

haha... "satan" likes demon hunter. thats just great XD

[mtlhead777]

HAHA! I totally agree. I'd also like to say "satan" seems to think to know a lot about anatomy, but I don't think a female dog can be kicked in the... but hey whatever, I don't think "satan" was all that smart to begin with, appearantly he hasn't had much luck trying to show his superiority (got kicked from heaven, was wrong about Job, couldn't tempt Jesus...the list continues). I love Falling Up and all the other Christain artist on RadioU. : )

[FredisafaggotFUCKCOB]

Wow dude, you are pretty fucking gay lol. I guess this is what Christian comebacks sound like huh? Way to give a bad name to your religion, fag.

You're going to hell...just thought I'd give you a head's up in advance.

[mtlhead777]

Okay...whatever. Take a breath and chill. Thanks for the advice, but I don't need it. I'm confident about where am going.

-Also thats what a resoned comeback sounds like.I'm just stating some observations, not swearing on and on in ignorance.

-Good choice with the Demon Hunter, though. Have you checked out Red and Seventh Day Slumber?

[mtlhead777]

I forgot to mention Emery.

[mtlhead777]

And Decyfer Down.

[spidergirl25800]

hahaha then why are you leaving blogs on this page satan?! ahahha what a duche!

[FredisafaggotFUCKCOB]

Christian music is for pussies. With the exception of Demon Hunter....

-Satan

[FredisafaggotFUCKCOB]

This is Satan - how ya'll doin today? I just ripped off a goats head and fucked its brain cavity. It was fun. By the way, I'm waiting for the Jonas Brothers to die so I can take their faggot asses down to hell with me for all eternity!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

[DyingInMelody]

hey there,

i'm fine thanks. how are you doing?

have a good day. god loves you, (whatever you do). (;

dim

[FredisafaggotFUCKCOB]

Thats good to hear. I'm glad he appreciates my hard work - eating souls is a real workout! I'm having lunch with God next wednesday and we're going to discuss this Jonas Brothers situation. I'm pretty sure he wants them to burn in hell too, so I'm guessing there won't be much debate!

May you all be damned ;)

Sincerely,

Satan

[DyingInMelody]

god damns nobody. god hates nobody. sorry for you that you haven't got that, yet. but sure, you're too afraid of the truth, to face it. i understand that. (;

[FredisafaggotFUCKCOB]

Hey, you want me to eat your soul?! Huh? You better quiet down or I'll send my minions out of the fire to rape your soul in its butt.

-Satan

[talladega24fan]

hey "satan"

my God is much bigger than you are. He's more powerful than you are too. there is nothing you can say to change that either.

-Christ follower

[FredisafaggotFUCKCOB]

Hey, you want a time out in hell, bitch? You shut your mouth right now or I'm gonna have to come up there and kick you in the nuts. And by the way - God is not physical, and therefore not able to be "bigger" than me.

May you all burn,

-Satan

[CliffThe1st]

man you are really gunna be shocked when you find out God is real

[FredisafaggotFUCKCOB]

God IS real. The funny thing is, is that he probably hates all of you bible thumping christian music dipshits with a fiery passion. He'll probably send you all to hell for listening to this garbage.

[CliffThe1st]

for a start God loves every one in the world equally and beleave it or not he loves u just as much as he loves me. second of all explain how i was bible thumping you? do you even know what it is like for some one to REALLY bible thump some one? and third of all i am still curious to know why you clicked on this vid if you hate christian music so much? or did you just listen to it so you could have your pointless arguments with christians?

[FredisafaggotFUCKCOB]

Actually I knew I would get some gay-ass reaction like this. What a faggy answer, seriously. XD

[CliffThe1st]

you still havn't answered my question. why did you watch this vid if your not even a fan of christian music like this?

[FredisafaggotFUCKCOB]

To rip on people who are guaranteed to have insanely lame, and hilarious comebacks. You have proven my point in spades. Thank you : )

[CliffThe1st]

yeah thats exactly what I thought you watched this vid for. Your just another person who trolls on vids to start and cause arguments. We have enough people who start arguments and cause wars and cause fights. We don't need more people like you to cause more of it thanks

[FredisafaggotFUCKCOB]

Why are you replying back then? You know you're just fueling the fire XD

Besides, don't you have doors to be knocking on, pamphlets to be giving out etc. so you can try to impose your religion on people or something?

[CliffThe1st]

To tell you to find something better to do with your time so other people won't have to put up with your crap. Teaching others about God isn't about giving out pamphlets or shoving a bible in their face it's about sharing the good news with others. Anyway isn't it better to have faith in something than none at all? Saying God doesn't exist is just another excuse for people to keep sinning as much as they like and not to acknowledge God

[FredisafaggotFUCKCOB]

Sharing the good news - isn't that what Hitler did?

[brilly1236]

I love you man!!

[CliffThe1st]

lol I love you too man :D

In a totally none gay way in a christian brotherly kind of way XD

[brilly1236]

haha yeah totally

[IAmSkofe]

same

[brilly1236]

hey enough love for everybody! Just like God enough love for the entire world and there still is more room to love!! I love you ALL!!!!

[IAmSkofe]

YEAH!!! lol

[brilly1236]

Yeah he is gonna be shocked mostly when that happens, its too late, as in they are dead and God questions them why they didnt listen to us then he's gonna say Im sorry God, but as We know it will be too late! Keep preachin!!

[CliffThe1st]

yeah it's sad to think that that would happen to alot of the people in this world :( but I am not the judge of who is and who isn't going to heaven only Jesus can do that. But thats why we need to keep telling people about the good news

[brilly1236]

I wish people can just give God a chance and their lives will get so much better! I just wish the whole world believed in him but as we know it we are in the end of days and one of the signs of Jesus coming is that the world's love will get cold! IYeah never judge others because we dont know if they are going through things we must be humble like Jesus!

[CliffThe1st]

yeah exactly i wish the same thing

[IAmSkofe]

same here. It's sad how so many won't believe in Him, even with so much proof that He exists and loves us.

[CliffThe1st]

yeah

[Howboutthat1000]

uh im jewish. lol jk

[2InsaneChickens]

Well, technicly, satan isn't phsyical either :)

God Bless

[palindrome8]

you are quite the character. what exactly is causing you to say all this?

[Wormsofterror]

i like the sound of the song, but it makes about as much sense as their name... they just seem to be getting more and more vague with their song meanings, which is unfortunate.

[robrose77]

they need to tell the story in a huge music video....im thinking a video like pink flloyds "the Wall" that would be awesome

[jpo102089]

Only 6 more days...

[cheesepowerm]

What is this song about

[azzyo2]

well basically the song on its own is pretty much hard to understand but the album is like a whole story so i guess wen the album comes out we mite understand it more
