SONS OF LIBERTY - We The People

[nubirski]

Pitty thing is, that the Americans do not understand the message...

[PH101stABN]

Man, I thought this was the punk band from Philly that's been around forever, wrong link

[nubirski]

Very important message, great album. Jon Schaffer, clever guys on metal scene. His albums have message behind. SOL remainds me the "Solidarność" (Solidarity) movement in Poland. The unity of society against state aggression, mutual goals, cooperation ... Something unforgettable, unachievable today in a society of consumption. New car, credit, LCD tv in bedroom, no sympathy for problems of people around, just buy, take credits, pay, debt, debt debt...!

Jon, many thanks from Poland!!!

[Immopimmo]

RON PAUL 2012!

@jenia111100 I'm russian too, but i hate nazi like you... Racism - slow selfdestruction.

[jenia111100]

@Psychosocial961  ok. земляк )))

[Psychosocial961]

@jenia111100 Хах) Просто расизм это не круто. В песне так вообще поётся про то, что нужно объединяться)))

[jenia111100]

@Psychosocial961 А ты в АМЕРИКЕ ЖИВЁШЬ? у нас скоро революция произойдёт,ждём помошь нато!готовы сами сражатся против путинской воровской власти!

[Morgenster]

1:17 Fear the fannypack!

But al jokes a side, we need more millitant libertarians makeing hardrock.

Rock on guise.

[nubirski]

...but do you understand him Americans...?

[nubirski]

Important message for the world. Jon Schaffer is the most influential metal composer ever!

[passionromeo]

Lock and Load..Let's rise up..

[passionromeo]

RISE UP !!! We the People surround them take back the Republic !!

[rockman22]

WE, THE PEOPLE, SURROUND THEM!

[DrownedInMetal21]

Wow had no idea Jon had these vocals

[6The6Deathbanger6]

Too sad! Great music and Schaffer is a great guitarist but in some points he is a total retard! He doesn't get that his country isn't great, never will be great and never was great! FUCK THE USA AND FUCK THE AMERICAN DREAM (=CAPITALISM)!

[DAmend3]

@6The6Deathbanger6 You sound like an ignorant, bitter Jean Luc Sissy Euro fag, but I am guessing you're good old home grown dude cheese.

[6The6Deathbanger6]

@DAmend3 It's a fact: the most people in the USA are raised with TV (Fox News, the most idiotic Channel I've ever seen) and consumption! They eat what the TV shits and think it tastes good! The most of you think that the highest thing on erth is money and that it's okay to kill for it! The war in Iraq was no war for National Security, it was a war for Oil! Face it!

[omenwolfe]

@6The6Deathbanger6 sounds like someone is upset that their mom and dad didn't move to america... :( LOL... get over it.. in fact, I hate to say this, but if it wasn't for America, then WW2 would have ended differently, and even then, we paid for England's restructuring, etc, which is why they live as nice as they do today, etc. We did the same for Poland, Russia, etc.. So feel free to thank us. While the average american doesn't have shit, it's cause we helped idiots like your country.

[6The6Deathbanger6]

@omenwolfe yeah that's right, america "helped us"! But not for humanity, only for money and that's how america works. Nothing makes sense without money for you you capitalist cocksucker bitch!

[omenwolfe]

@6The6Deathbanger6 Helped you for money? you are an idiot.. America is in debt because of OUR money that was spent to bail your asses out during WW1 and WW2.... know your facts before you speak you fucking moron. Jeez, people like you are the reason gas chambers and public hangings should be legal... I personally could give a shit less about money, or the need for it.. it's nothing but a green piece of paper. Until you know me, don't comment on who I am, you dumbass.

[6The6Deathbanger6]

@omenwolfe Ah and you were born during the WW2 or what? If not it wasn't YOUR money! It was the money of some rich assholes that thought "okay, lets help the europeans! It will look like humanity but we can get some money from them, otherwise it wouldn't make sense!" . These people got their wealth by slaughtering natives and stealing their land! It's a fact that the most of you americans are stupid and blinded by TV (Fox news) and consumption.

[omenwolfe]

@6The6Deathbanger6 And the English got their lands by slaughtering the Jews and Spanish that were there before them.. and the Egyptians got their lands by Slaughtering Jews.. and the Jews got their lands by Slaughtering Egyptians, and on and on and on... First thing you need to understand: I don't watch Fox, or CNN, etc.. in fact, my country labels me as a terroristic threat because I don't agree with the bs that goes on. That doesn't mean my country isn't great.

[omenwolfe]

@6The6Deathbanger6 And it also doesn't mean that your country isn't great as well.. every country has it's faults.. none are immune, and none are perfect.

[6The6Deathbanger6]

@omenwolfe Okay let's stop arguing. I'll stay with my point of view that America sucks, mainly cause it's the epitome of capitalism, which is a economic system that I despise. Not that Germany would be a much better place to me but I know so many americans that are simply retarded...

[omenwolfe]

@6The6Deathbanger6 Indeed mate.. indeed.. but hey, if it makes you feel any better, our money is being devalued much like the UK's was in the late 60's.. LOL... but yea, no use in fighting mate.. I have a feeling we both fight for the same cause, but from a different angle. :)

[passionromeo]

Love,Love This...10 thumbs up...

[123ahrrr]

Mr Schaffer for president

[rosiertodd]

Nice song. Hope we get on the governments ass about how we know what is goinf on and do something about it.

[evj64]

Awesome band......great job Jon

[Werwolfcorpse]

possible? the goldstandard was a good thing but as too much many got into the world it is not possible to find such gold as it's money in the US.

You would have to minimize the money and this will lead to corruption and starvation.

[vladmira]

Mr. Schaffer knows what to do...a real Patriot!

[4through6strings]

If only the OWS could pull their heads out of their ass our numbers would be ....

[zBlexker]

Jons Schaffer Presidente 

[TheWickedChild10]

Jon is the man !

[MrScarsoul]

Влюбен съм в тая песен!!

[Werwolfcorpse]

I mean Ron Paul wants to reactivate the goldstandard. it's just impossible, it's an illusion, he's just to conservative.

[Arjozof]

@Werwolfcorpse not only it's possible, it's the only way to stop the paper money scam. What is necessary is free competition in money production by private minters. So it's not an imposed gold standard from the top - but fully market money, chosen freely by the people.

[Werwolfcorpse]

Jon Schaffer is just publishing a new political opinion here with these songs.

It was always there, the feeling everybody should have. We the people yearn for freedom.

But, dudes, just think about it: Is Ron Paul really the MAN? Or is it all false?

[AmericaStandsStrong1]

RONPAUL2012

[discyple]

YES! Awesome fanny pack, Jon. Do you know how much metal credibility you have to accrue before you can saunter around in public wearing a fanny pack without a trace of irony? Like 3, 4 guys, tops, can pull that off. Jon, Hansi and Zakk are the only ones I can think of off-hand.

[yuppyguitar1]

This fucking owns. Only thing that would make it better is Jon on guitar. Love the harmonized guitar lines, and Jon is an awesome vocalist.

[Malikarcanum]

@yuppyguitar1 Jon does do the guitar on the studio version.

[Mrpingu938]

5 people who dislikes freedom

[Mrpingu938]

1:39! lllooovvveee this guitar!

[Landsknecht89]

Great Song! Respect from Austria!

[harrymanbach]

Just when I thought I couldn't respect Jon Schaffer more he goes and puts this beast out. New Genre-Patriot Metal!

[natritious1]

I have just discovered this right now, and I'm really happy I did!

[ErhanLiveMetal]

Love this song and band.

[Mrpingu938]

1:42!!! AWESOME!

[Mrpingu938]

GREAT SONG

[2012Hase]

5 Negatives makes better.

[I9I9Eternal]

A truly beautiful and powerful video. The scores of people waving Sons of Liberty and Don't Tread on Me flags as they proudly parade the streets to the anthem that is We The People, what a sight.

[kinglachen]

Yes, this is the people against the mafia

around the world, this is the only global thing.

Break a leg whith that from Spain!!

The robber barons(*) have all the money, ok,

but they musn´t have our justice, liberty and

prosperity (I was born yesterday and I want the

world improved for tomorrow)

[danmarder1]

Damn, I love Sons of Liberty - anyone know of any other Libertarian metal?

[omenwolfe]

@danmarder1 Depends on what you consider Libertarian.. Hammerfall are a great band, but all of their songs are about the imaginary kingdom of Hammerfall and protecting it and fighting for their glorious and Just king.. they have some great music, and they totally rock.. :D

[ebonized]

@danmarder1 Yeah man ;) - Check out WolveSpirit and their Song Change watch?v=pWD6IBDnTEU

[danmarder1]

@ebonized

Thanks a lot man, much appreciated :)

[RealistinCanada]

@danmarder1 You may already be aware...but,Disturbed is quite political in their own way.I recommend the "Ten Thousand Fists" album!

[pitbullgirl65]

I don't know: I agree with a great deal of what he says, I absolutely loath Bush/Cheney, and Obama has thrown the progressives who elected him under the bus, but what does it stand for? Libertarian party? Ugh. Teabaggers? Conservative?

The only party that truly is for the people is the Green party imho.

[Philter123456789]

Every time i watch this i get shivers down my spine.

[M249SAWzALL]

@Philter123456789 Funny I get that same feeling every time I walk by a liberal.

[PaulanerNaturtrueb]

NAZI SHIT !!!! DON'T MAKE THE SAME FAULT AS WE GERMANS DID !!!

[Shitgrinder]

@PaulanerNaturtrueb

Yeah fighting for freedom and against governmental control is nazi shit! Get your head out of your ass!

[netterEddy666]

die amerikaner sind die einzigen die es je auch nur ansatzweise kapiert haben. lasst euch das nicht nehmen.

Ron Paul 2012

[turbofritz2]

@netterEddy666 Yeah there must be something done against the bank system never too late. Grettings from Norway!

[JASONANDTRACI]

People go to other rock band youtube videos and tell the p\eople about SONS OF LIBERTY .

People need to hear this message!

Long live the republic/ Death to the New WOrld Order

[n1bleachfreak]

The time is near at hand which must determine whether Americans are going to be free man or slaves. George Washington

[mercen144]

I Am a real Sons Of Liberty. I need to meet you guys.

[Scarecrowman27]

Jesse Ventura should be the lead singer.

[freebirdflies]

Sign the petition ronpaul2012dotnet Go Ron Paul!!

[helloimbrandon]

I love how there are no dis likes!

[MetalXGrimmia]

We Are The People!!!! You Keep The Word Going JON!!!!!!!!

[Lifeisadeathmatch]

yeah this is what we need, all of you assemble and go on the street, we need millions of this great young girls and boys!

[dercaine]

a true rolemodel! Yeah!

[pilllar]

Jon Schaffer is the man,a true rolemodel for humanity

[M249SAWzALL]

I'll be damned! I got a new favorite band!

[GigaRagnaSlave]

This music is meant to help people understand what's truly going on in this country. The corruption on all levels of the government is staggering. The Democracy is slowly but surely fading, its almost gotten to the point of being fascist. Just like the old Sons of Liberty of our founding fathers, we need this new Sons of Liberty to lead the way, and create a better future! Besides all of that, the music is just plain awesome! Schaffer has an amazing voice!

[GuerillaCorpsUSA]

This band is AWESOME!!! 

[XxXxTomArayaxXxX]

Fuckin' EPIC! Jon is my Hero forever! Hail Schaffer, fuck the politics! RISE UP AGAINST TYRANNY! But why Jon's not playing guitar on stage?(

[MalirRayan]

What the fuck does this movement want? No facism, no reign of banks, meaning no capitalism and no socialism, no communism. So what?

Resistance is fine, but make clear your attitude. Waving flags of the United States doesn't mean anything. We know you Americans are very proud of your country.

[Razor745]

@MalirRayan You're right. But more people should be aware of what's going on in the world, which is the most important thing at the moment.

[pfizzbones]

@MalirRayan Apparently you really don't know America very well. Capitalism hasn't been practiced here completely in years. Socialism has been melded into it for our last 100 years. We are now seeing that socialism and capitalism don't mix. Socialism is the disease that progressively takes over. We the people, are the vaccine. And we will get back to the system that made us the most prosperous free people of the last 200+ years. The message is...We're baaaaack!

[theSaj]

@MalirRayan

It's quite simple really...

We want Liberty!

--

Which pretty much equates to not being bogged down in regulations that only benefit the big entities tied closely to the government. Not being taxed in order to spend money on non-core government duties. And to have a financial system that doesn't steal one's savings at the behest of mega-banks.

Not too hard is it?

[extrememind100]

he tries to sing like tim ripper`

[MrExplorer260]

@extrememind100 maybe ripper sings like jon:D he does have a nice voice..i mean both of them

[jossy2112]

@JackTarJakst3R That's exactly what I think....... Maybe I used a wrong sentence. I meant to say: "This makes me wonder why he doesn't sing in Iced Earth" since I think his voice would fit perfectly.

I prefer Barlow for Iced Earth though. To me there is no complete Iced Earth sound without Barlow. IMO of course.

[jossy2112]

This makes me think why he never actually attempted to sing in Iced Earth

[popas7]

Amazing and mind blowing! Thanks a lot for making this! We will win!

[THX1948]

GREAT VIDEO

[Dorfjunge]

Great Song great Video!!!!!!!! thx from Germany

[frankenphil]

Jon for President!

[dvdfiend]

@frankenphil I second that!

[Lodicat]

Jon Schaffer and Katy Kurtzman need to get together and really do some damage!! They would be a dynamic duo for sure!! Awesome video. I wish I could have been there!!! Great work, Jon!!!!!1

[Decklocation]

Damn that was a lot of people at the march! Just wish I could have been there >:O

[DeathwingRules]

We the people must unite!!! Get rid of the corruption and vote for Ron Paul for 2012!

[ashitaka1337]

@DeathwingRules haha nice joke dude...how bout inforiming on your political system before you shout out paroles? just search for "republicans arm industry" on google ...maybe u see now why there is always a war when the republicans rule the land...cause the arms indusrty is producing more and more weapons...the old ones being get rid of in more or less useless wars...being proud of ur country is nice...but u should always think about what youre doing for it or against it

[ashitaka1337]

@DeathwingRules OR let me just quote a great song: Close your eyes and imagine the soldier at Valley Forge The suffering that he endured was real starvation, total war. Yet in his eyes the iron will to win and for the cause, he won't relent Would he look upon us now in anger and disgust His providence our birthright and our creed Will we let ignorance and laziness bring our demise Complacency, we're blinded by our greed

[davisbwaddell]

It's a little weird seeing Jon on stage without a guitar

[TheTigerRF]

@davisbwaddell yeah its almost lik he doesn't know what to do with himself....great band and great song..

[MetalXGrimmia]

LOL That So True

[Gentelman909]

Nice but goon with Iced Earth! :)

[snave86]

great video. hope to see more or perhaps see it aired on MTV lol yeah right!

[TheCleansingWind]

fuckin awesome sons of liberty  give me liberty or give me death all the way

[MetalHeadViking]

Awesome!

[Wyndrax]

Fuck yes!

[Chuloloc]

Awesome. If Jon decides to allow this video to become the official video, it would be great. Hail Sons Of Liberty.

[jp0005jp]

FUCKING AWSOME \m/

[juliancscs]

Awesome!!

[StefanJohanssonX]

Jon Schaffer is fantastic :)

[Vattens]

I saw them with Iced Earth here in NYC and what a show it was! \m/

[0MetallicaManX0]

My favorite song from the album! Hope I can see SOL live sometime soon :)

[crypter27]

God bless you John Schafer!

[akaboo69]
