Shadows Fall - not a weak link in the band. One of my favorite songs, showcases Brian Fairs melodic vocals, with another great solo by Jon Donais... It'd be great if they'd release an album of acoustic songs, along the lines of Alice in Chains, Jar of Flies

No matter how many times I listen to this song, tears are always sure to follow for the love of my friends who are out there and for the family that are preparing to leave for it. I love you all. :'/
@guitarist347 yes... its a useless war by far... but what made it worse was he didnt get his honorable death like he wanted by dying for his country... he was killed by friendly fire in a training exercise ... but thank you very much.
this is the song i dedicated to my cousin who was like my brother who died in iraq... I miss you Michael. You were the best cousin, brother, father, husband, and just a great guy...
RIP Michael I love you man and i miss you. 1987-2007... :'(
THIS SONG IS FEATURED ON MY ONLINE RADIO STATION [FOLLOW THE LINK IN MY CHANNEL] If you like SHADOWS FALL or just metal or rock then u should listen to this station. its fun to listen to while surfing the web. its just starting up now n im a little shy 2 the mic but ill get better soon n it will be funny and crazy. we also have news on the music n will b posting alot of broadcasts soon so if u dont like it now then come bak later n u will definitly b satisfied. thank you! `~` ESORKALSIRK `~
those who pushes the dislike they r nothing but ungrateful motherf**kers. the don't know the meaning of independence. they will never understand that the military r working day night night so that we can sleep in peace.
Honest all this show your love to teh armed forces is fucking ridiculous they know what they signed up for and lets face it the 'war on terror' was never really a war on terror at all ace song though
i was looking for this song like crazy i remember listening to it loved it, mixed it up with the band 10 years because he also had dreads and couldnt find the damn song but i did yay! LOOL
i met brian in denver back in 07 just chillin for a little bit. I had a fuckin blast at the filmore but my respect for shadows fall dramatically increased after that meeting. Thanks Brian you guys are the shit!
This song brings tears to my eyes, it is so moving and emotional. Never take life for granted because it is never guaranteed or promised. Live for what is now and do not worry about the future.
this song is amazing... it's remind me that even those people are gone, they will not be forgotten because they sacrifice their lives so we can live normally...
@Seiptis it will never end like you said we have been fighting since the beginning of time, its in our blood its what we do, its fruitless to ever think things will be different
people, as an american citizen, i wish you wouldnt hate on this video or people or anything but yet respect the troops that fight for our country, for our world, and for us.
@Damonentreiber your life is the gayest gayshit this universe has ever put on this world. i feel bad for every human and living thing on this planet that your alive
This song is amazing but dunno if I'm interpreting correctly the message cuz makes me wonder (seriously) if you, U.S. ppl, recognize than outside your borders and left behind your military facilities around the entire world are other heroes dying, trying to defend their nation and protect their democracies.. just saying. If you are, ok, we are in thinking the same.
To be honest, I believe this is for anyone who have served to protect their community and/or country and have fallen in the lines of duty. I don't think it's specific to any country. Sure, the song was dedicated to an American, but if this song reminds you of a good friend or family member who is serving their country or community, then it has passed its message.

I cry every time someone pushes dislike. why? because they obviously don't know what freedom is or what it is like to lose a loved one. All of my older brothers have been sent overseas to stop the spread of terrorism, and not one has come back, and none of them will come back. stop trolling on freedom and instead, troll on terrorism.

@mrangryeyes234 All respect to your brothers, but not liking this song means you've got no experience of personal loss or the concept of freedom? That sounds kinda extreme, and not very pro-freedom at all to me. Isn't allowing to hold our own beliefs and points of view a part of freedom?

1 year ago today my best friend since high school Sgt Frank J.A World died in Afghanistan 12 day before what would of been his 26th birthday and this song was played at his funeral. I honestly can't think of a more fitting song for those who have fallen. R.I.P Sgt Frank J.A World and all the others who have died and will die for our freedoms. You will never be forgotten.
@gingerfitzgerald06 He didn't die for our "freedoms" that we don't even have in the first place, he died while implementing the New World Order. 9/11 was an inside job carried out by the CIA and the Israeli Mossad.

How the fuck can you dislike this song? This song is beautiful in every single way. It's lyrically amazing, and they made an awesome song. See everyone, metal isn't just killing people and bloodshed. People of metal have hearts to.
@ethdarkful War is constant, moron. Conflict is one of the few constants of the known universes and people like you who wish the world could be all hugs and kisses will not last long.
@Bio69 if history shows the only way for peace is war we will rip up the history books and we will invite every country over for a bonfire where we will rewrite a peaceful future
war is only a constant as long as man chooses to wage war hugs and kisses is a solution if you let it be one
"going to war to prevent war is the most stupid thing i ever heard" - the king blues
@SpykoXX And thousands of years teach us that man cannot live in harmony. So long as there is two people on the planet, someone will be unhappy with another person.
@Bio69 in that case it would not be stupid but the thing which you appear to be missing is that we are not psychic and in turn are not presented with these situations and so are left to doing things which are motivated by peace in order to bring piece however war and peace are antonyms of each other and in turn one does not cause the other
I do however admit that war should be used as a last resort however using it to prevent war is a rather backwards philosophy
@SpykoXX Define "war" and define "peace". I spent the last year studying the meaning of these two words and they are some of the hardest things to define. They are definitely not antonyms to anyone who has studied war and peace in any real depth. Calling them antonyms is just a reductionist approach, another way of thinking something is more simple than it actually is.
@Bio69 sir i think you may want to check that because war is definitely an antonym of peace
definition of peace "Freedom from quarrels and disagreement"
definition of war "A particular armed conflict"
2 minutes of research and i found this
synonym.com/antonym/peace/
I think you are studying wrong sir lol
humans invented terms like just war and friendly fire and that is essentially what causes war and therefore the absence of peace its literally as simple as that
@SpykoXX Internet definitions? LOL, don't insult me. Are we in peace now? How can we be if we are at war with Eastern countries? How can both exist at the same time? Is terrorism war? If not, then why is terrorism a tactic of war? If war is armed conflict, does that mean the presence of weapons is the difference between war and peace? You have no fucking idea.
I'm pretty sure people who got their Ph.D's from Oxford, Cambridge or a British Redbrick know a lot more about this then you.
@SpykoXX Also, we are quarrelling now, so are we at war? My friend and I disagree on our music tastes, are we at war or peace? Try and answer my questions. After you realize I am actually right and you are completely wrong, you may apologize for being an imbecile and doubting the word of someone far, far superior to you.
@Bio69 my gosh could you sound more arrogant if you tried its like you are on a Chuck Norris facts forum except that you are the subject and all the people posting
@Bio69 yes indeed when you disagree you are in a way making war however its significance is so different it could be considered a completely different definition is not the same as when two large groups of people decide to start killing each other if you decide to kill your friend because your difference of musical taste then that is where it significant
@Bio69 I do not believe we are completely at peace as like you said there are wars going on war and peace can exist together just like good and evil can it is more of a spectrum
and your "i know better" falls through because clearly you don't because even if you had a fucking PHD at Harvard because otherwise you haven't put forward a single decent argument and as far a philosophy goes a piece of paper doesn't mean jack shit
@SpykoXX You fucking hypocrite. After posting definitions and saying they are antonyms you now dare to smudge the lines between the two? You aren't in a position to say what is a decent argument or not, but if my argument wasn't "decent" then you wouldn't have abandoned your antonym horseshit and began debating where to draw the lines. Next time you try to one-up someone, I'd recommend you actually knew what the hell you were on about before humiliating yourself.
@SpykoXX How grand a scale does a conflict have to be until it turns into a war? Two men? Ten men? A hundred men? If a hundred men involved in a conflict means there is a war taking place, why isn't 99 men involved a war too and why?
By being not just wrong, but empirically wrong, you merely further encourage my arrogance. I am right because I have studied this and your arrogant self-belief that you are right despite being proved utterly wrong by simple Socratic method is proof of your idiocy.
@Bio69 if the definition of a Socratic method is misinterpreting what someone says and calling it proof then you are on par with Socrates however Socrates was a smart man whereas you are a poser
it depends whether you interpret a conflict as significant enough to be on par to what we would usually consider as war or is it on par with disagreement depending on your answer depends on whether you mean the original meaning which is conflict or the modern meaning which is armed conflict
@SpykoXX Your point is completely irrelevant because words and meanings mutate. For example, "pagan" comes from the Roman word "paganus" which means "rural" or "outside of the cities". However Christianity was a city-borne religion and therefore "pagan" became a term used to denote anyone of non-Christian faith or any religion outside of the more "major" religions. Nice try, dumbass.
You are way out of your depth here. Admit inferiority and be done with it to save yourself further humiliation.
@Bio69 you are right the meanings of words do mutate and clearly in your eyes the word humiliation has mutated massively
if you have to tell people how inferior my argument is then clearly it is not
i have given both the origin and current definition of the word peace and both support what i have said
if the word pagan was the word peace you may have a point but it clearly is not also pagan originally meant country dweller and became a blanket term so it largely kept the same meaning anyway
@SpykoXX You are wrong about "pagan". Ask any academic that has studied medieval or late antiquity spirituality and they will agree with me.
This is why people like me are told to not argue with the uneducated. You are physically incapable of comprehending a solid argument if it doesn't agree with your linear perception. What am I meant to say to one who doesn't "get" it? How can you take mutation of terms into account without MENTIONING it? Enjoy flipping burgers for the rest of your life.
@Bio69 because they are people studying what has become the blanket term
you are the biggest fucking poser i have ever seen also i just checked out your channel and you spend an awful lot of time being wrong for an uneducated person I am currently studying physics and double maths at college but even if i do end up flipping burgers at least i wont be ignorant
also solid argument you just claimed you were smarter sir disagreement is not a lack of education but rather the opposite
@SpykoXX Yeah, I'm sure that professors are wrong and that you are right about the word "pagan". Physics and double Maths? WOW! If only I had a degree in History and my MA thesis on the Investiture Contest. Let me put it another way: I have more experience, have written more published papers and have read a LOT more than you. College students, eugh. Everyone goes to college in the UK but few actually go to a decent university. Message me when you've graduated from your lacklustre polytechnic.
@Bio69 i don't give a shit what you have nor do i care about your thesis you are still ignorant as fuck and you still are wrong on pretty much
also you are a fan of Socrates right? he once said "I am the wisest man alive, for I know one thing, and that is that I know nothing." I feel from this he is saying that a man humble enough to learn is smarter than he who thinks he knows everything
also I am about to go find a bunch of sources to prove your made up professors wrong
@SpykoXX And you're done. Wikipedia citing proves you have never studied a thing in your life. Pretty sure English Redbrick/AU professors still know better than you. Silly child.
@Bio69 i challenge you to change something on wikipedia to something completely wrong and see how long it takes for it to get changed back... tip try not to blink
They probably do however until i meet one that gives a decent argument I will keep my opinion
also I am so glad you replied back you have been a humorous topic of conversation and for that i thank you please by all means get proven wrong again
@dalebro94 A soldier fights for his wage package. How many would still sign up if there was nothing but food and board? Also, why is it that most of the basic footsoldiers are working class, often poorly educated?
I dont like shadow fall too much but this song is absolutely amazing. Im learning the acoustic guitar at my guitar lessons right now, its awesome to have good tabs and backing tracks without the acoustic...
I dedicate this song to my grandfather, my grandmother, my uncles, my sister. And to anyone else we have lost in the service of our great nation so that we can all live in freedom . And to those who are still fighting and the families who love you, I thank you from the bottom of my heart.
If you guys like Shadows Fall you should check out the unsigned band from NY THROUGH THE FLOOD! We've got some songs up and the quality is great. We recorded the same place as Shai Halud, Senses Fail, Brand New and My Chemical Romance after all. We've also recently shared the stage with OTEP, MUSHROOMHEAD, WINDS OF PLAGUE, DARKEST HOUR and many other huge bands so take a second and check us out. Let TTF be the one random comment band that doesn't dissapoint you. Stay metal my friends! \m/
I can't stand 'core' music, most of their bands annoy me, and usually they are emo faggs, but Shadows Fall are better, they started shitty, but they grew into so much more, I respect them caus they have talent, and theyre unique, good work guys :)

Beautiful song Shadows Fall. Pure gold.

@SpykoXX Going to war to prevent a war that will end in your own destruction is stupid?
Bio69 6 months ago
@Bio69 in that case it would not be stupid but the thing which you appear to be missing is that we are not psychic and in turn are not presented with these situations and so are left to doing things which are motivated by peace in order to bring piece however war and peace are antonyms of each other and in turn one does not cause the other
I do however admit that war should be used as a last resort however using it to prevent war is a rather backwards philosophy
SpykoXX 6 months ago
@SpykoXX Define "war" and define "peace". I spent the last year studying the meaning of these two words and they are some of the hardest things to define. They are definitely not antonyms to anyone who has studied war and peace in any real depth. Calling them antonyms is just a reductionist approach, another way of thinking something is more simple than it actually is.
Bio69 6 months ago
@Bio69 sir i think you may want to check that because war is definitely an antonym of peace
definition of peace "Freedom from quarrels and disagreement"
definition of war "A particular armed conflict"
2 minutes of research and i found this
synonym.com/antonym/peace/
I think you are studying wrong sir lol
humans invented terms like just war and friendly fire and that is essentially what causes war and therefore the absence of peace its literally as simple as that
SpykoXX 6 months ago
@SpykoXX Internet definitions? LOL, don't insult me. Are we in peace now? How can we be if we are at war with Eastern countries? How can both exist at the same time? Is terrorism war? If not, then why is terrorism a tactic of war? If war is armed conflict, does that mean the presence of weapons is the difference between war and peace? You have no fucking idea.
I'm pretty sure people who got their Ph.D's from Oxford, Cambridge or a British Redbrick know a lot more about this then you.

@SpykoXX Also, we are quarrelling now, so are we at war? My friend and I disagree on our music tastes, are we at war or peace? Try and answer my questions.

@Bio69 yes indeed when you disagree you are in a way making war however its significance is so different it could be considered a completely different definition is not the same as when two large groups of people decide to start killing each other if you decide to kill your friend because your difference of musical taste then that is where it significant
again see next comment
SpykoXX 6 months ago
@Bio69 I do not believe we are completely at peace as like you said there are wars going on war and peace can exist together just like good and evil can it is more of a spectrum
and your "i know better" falls through because clearly you don't because even if you had a fucking PHD at Harvard because otherwise you haven't put forward a single decent argument and as far a philosophy goes a piece of paper doesn't mean jack shit
expecting an arrogant reply soon bye
SpykoXX 6 months ago
@SpykoXX You fucking hypocrite. After posting definitions and saying they are antonyms you now dare to smudge the lines between the two? You aren't in a position to say what is a decent argument or not, but if my argument wasn't "decent" then you wouldn't have abandoned your antonym horseshit and began debating where to draw the lines. Next time you try to one-up someone, I'd recommend you actually knew what the hell you were on about before humiliating yourself.
Bio69 6 months ago
@SpykoXX How grand a scale does a conflict have to be until it turns into a war? Two men? Ten men? A hundred men? If a hundred men involved in a conflict means there is a war taking place, why isn't 99 men involved a war too and why?
By being not just wrong, but empirically wrong, you merely further encourage my arrogance. I am right because I have studied this and your arrogant self-belief that you are right despite being proved utterly wrong by simple Socratic method is proof of your idiocy.
Bio69 6 months ago
@Bio69 if the definition of a Socratic method is misinterpreting what someone says and calling it proof then you are on par with Socrates however Socrates was a smart man whereas you are a poser
it depends whether you interpret a conflict as significant enough to be on par to what we would usually consider as war or is it on par with disagreement depending on your answer depends on whether you mean the original meaning which is conflict or the modern meaning which is armed conflict
SpykoXX 6 months ago
@Bio69 also the origin of the word war comes from the Indo-European word wers to mix up or synonymously conflict
but you are an expert so you already knew that right? yeah i thought so

@SpykoXX Your point is completely irrelevant because words and meanings mutate. For example, "pagan" comes from the Roman word "paganus" which means "rural" or "outside of the cities". However Christianity was a city-borne religion and therefore "pagan" became a term used to denote anyone of non-Christian faith or any religion outside of the more "major" religions. Nice try, dumbass.
You are way out of your depth here. Admit inferiority and be done with it to save yourself further humiliation.
Bio69 6 months ago
@Bio69 you are right the meanings of words do mutate and clearly in your eyes the word humiliation has mutated massively
if you have to tell people how inferior my argument is then clearly it is not
i have given both the origin and current definition of the word peace and both support what i have said
if the word pagan was the word peace you may have a point but it clearly is not also pagan originally meant country dweller and became a blanket term so it largely kept the same meaning anyway
SpykoXX 6 months ago
@SpykoXX You are wrong about "pagan". Ask any academic that has studied medieval or late antiquity spirituality and they will agree with me.
This is why people like me are told to not argue with the uneducated. You are physically incapable of comprehending a solid argument if it doesn't agree with your linear perception. What am I meant to say to one who doesn't "get" it? How can you take mutation of terms into account without MENTIONING it? Enjoy flipping burgers for the rest of your life.

@Bio69 because they are people studying what has become the blanket term
you are the biggest fucking poser i have ever seen also i just checked out your channel and you spend an awful lot of time being wrong for an uneducated person I am currently studying physics and double maths at college but even if i do end up flipping burgers at least i wont be ignorant
also solid argument you just claimed you were smarter sir disagreement is not a lack of education but rather the opposite
SpykoXX 5 months ago
@SpykoXX Yeah, I'm sure that professors are wrong and that you are right about the word "pagan". Physics and double Maths? WOW! If only I had a degree in History and my MA thesis on the Investiture Contest. Let me put it another way: I have more experience, have written more published papers and have read a LOT more than you. College students, eugh. Everyone goes to college in the UK but few actually go to a decent university. Message me when you've graduated from your lacklustre polytechnic.

@Bio69 i don't give a shit what you have nor do i care about your thesis you are still ignorant as fuck and you still are wrong on pretty much
also you are a fan of Socrates right? he once said "I am the wisest man alive, for I know one thing, and that is that I know nothing." I feel from this he is saying that a man humble enough to learn is smarter than he who thinks he knows everything
also I am about to go find a bunch of sources to prove your made up professors wrong

@Bio69 [1]"Paganism (from Latin paganus, meaning "country dweller""
[2]"by the Middle Ages, the word for "country dweller" became synonymous with one who was not a Christian."
i take it said made up professors go to the same shitty uni as you did because they failed to run a quick google search of the word pagan
[1]This was from the wikipedia page for the word pagan
[2] asiya .org /bos /pagan meaning .html

If you guys like Shadows Fall you should check out the unsigned band from NY THROUGH THE FLOOD! We've got some songs up and the quality is great. We recorded the same place as Shai Halud, Senses Fail, Brand New and My Chemical Romance after all. We've also recently shared the stage with OTEP, MUSHROOMHEAD, WINDS OF PLAGUE, DARKEST HOUR and many other huge bands so take a second and check us out. Let TTF be the one random comment band that doesn't dissapoint you. Stay metal my friends! \m/
