American Hearts - Piebald

[beeasy508]

How can one not like Piebald?

[MauraMcG]

After the song ended, I was waiting for "long nightssss, hard timesss, everything to make you feel tireddd" 

[smokeDMTnow]

real story. i played this song for my english class today. my teacher said this is crap. AND I SMACKED THAT BITCH IN THE FACE. the cops came came and when they found out what had happened, they beat her with knight sticks

[oneforthekids182]

HEY! You're part of it! YEAH! You're part of it!

[monzione]

the things i would do if i could hear this live one last time....

[SelfRevolution37]

i like how american football is in the related links. ahahaha its like i'm 5 years back in time.............

[aliciabizzleful]

I grew up to Piebald. This shits my life.

[AnAmericanSkylineNY]

HEY! you're part of it....YEA!

[dasenase]

I remember seeing these guys with MC Chris. This song is still kind of gay. They're alright, though.

[mupinion]

Hi at all.

I need help for the Song "Jula Bell"

Does anyone know the GUITAR TABS?

I can´t find anything about this song!

Thanks for your help.

c ya.

[DethDaeNossi]

they are so good, were and still are even though they broke up.

[Cliffordgf]

this singer reminds me of ben folds voice kinda. anyone else? not exactly obviously, but like on "Its going to get worse before it gets better" theres definitely a resemblance i think

[javier51487]

Love this song!!!

[Maxwithoutsam]

That's music how it should be. Burn down the fake scene.

[wheredeadmenwalk]

how can anyone possibly like this. it's fucking terrible.

[nbooth10]

@wheredeadmenwalk ur a metalfag. no one cares.

[stratsb21]

@dantheflyingman87 ugh dude! the song is about how everyone is "part of" a sh*tty system that oppresses: it's not a good thing that we're "part of it." you fail for not paying attention to the lyrics!!

[SASH37]

I honestly think I want this to be played at my funeral.

[OnlineScooterGuide]

My friends need to see your video - I'll pass it along

[knolan15]

this song would not be what it is without his voice sounding the way it does...which is pure unadulterated awesomeness. what a great song this is, miss these guys.

[chosentonessournotes]

Wait a minute... People think his voice sucks? I think he's pretty damned good for the type of music they play. Just because he isn't some whiny little bitch like 90% of poppier punk bands out there nowadays.

[XiuTheFeared]

THIS PLACE HAS BROKEN......MY AMERICAN HEART!!!

[TheDboardman]

No matter how down you get, how broken you are put on Piebald and you will smile. There is a video on youtube of the lead singer of Black Flag (Henry Rollins) talking about music not being the same anymore, people not being original, sometimes I have to agree but then bands like piebald come around and prove us all wrong.

[XrellisX]

Great live show! Great Band! Dude, the MVHC is no joke!

[TheGorillaz91]

They were sitting pretty & were on top of the " emo " world but like most GREAT bands, they disbanded or got a lil carried away?

I don't know.

But this, is not only an AWESOME SONG , it put them on the map.

[baconbits1230]

yes

[wasteofpaint31]

The Composure covered this song last night

[vincentpoprocky]

@wasteofpaint31 twas epic

[GettinBoredAgain]

holy $h!t....i haven't heard this song in Forever! and apparently i'm the 80,000th viewer of this video. gnarly :)

[MtwContent]

anyone else know MC Lars?

[thewoodlandfox]

mint!

[irnbruguy]

I'm talking bout the iGeneration.

[ryanisarapest]

first time listening to this band. His voice is fuckin awesome.

[popflickcatchland]

sounds like igeneration by mc lars. but 3525634657845 times better

[popflickcatchland]

@popflickcatchland nevermind i'm retarded.

[emzime666]

AGREED anyone who rips on his voice is a peice of sh$t...dude has the cutest most innocent sound ever <3

[xpiecemealx]

This song can make anyone happy.

[pedoblevepe]

Sick Band!

[mykienightmare]

Piebald is fucking amazing.

[adisharr]

i LOVE this song :)

[miguelman159]

These dudes killed it at Bamboozle! Too wild!

[wolfpartyjoe]

music started sucking this decade when tweens discovering "the scene" for the first time were all of a sudden concerned with how a singer sang. probably can attrib. this change to most kids now growing up not listening to a local modern/alt rock station because they've all folded... travis has one of the most true voices of the last 20 years. thats all that matters to me.

[smnewthtrblnmnd]

epic song.

[SpursCards311]

this is just one of those songs...when youre sick of all the new stuff, this one never fails.

[kwdisneat]

Hey! your part of it dude!!!

[ClubPenguinVsRS]

First thing i think of : MC Lars - iGeneration, is that song a variation of this?

[Aaaallllaaann]

@ClubPenguinVsRS MC LArs sampled this song

[topcritic34]

listen to my band.., type in jablizzard1 and click on remorse.. the first song is pretty good thanks

[crassisdead]

@topcritic34 Don't fucking spam this video.

[chrisfinest1]

Why is a bear working the mixing board?

[Bluesguy92]

why not?

[chrisfinest1]

I'd imagine he'd have trouble with the knobs and he'd probably eq it all wrong.

[Bluesguy92]

yeah thats true, i hate shitty sound board technicians

[pan0ramagimmick]

This dude is the coolest Nerd ive ever seen xD

[pan0ramagimmick]

man this is great! im glad i really looked into this band :D wonderful tunes

[softletters]

those were the days!

[AnothrMornngStnR]

good old days.

[jihadpizza]

miss this band.

[bwadams12]

Four months ago, i heard this song in my friend's car. Today, and not for the first time, i had that one catchy ass line stuck in my head. One could say I was... hooked? I've never in my life heard a hook that stuck in my head for that long, not just the vocal line, but the way the whole chord voicings work underneath it. So maybe not THE greatest hook, but definitely one of them.

[ctzompanakis]

this is so piratecore

[Bottlenek6]

Hey!

[marshmelowmat]

thanks for that, buzz killington

[stlilc4]

to me the point of any part of music including the hook is to be intricate, detailed, and well thought out. ya buzz kill right for enjoying good music. my bad.

[stlilc4]

honestly i used to be a very big fan of piebald back in the day. but to say that "hey you're part of it" is one of the best hooks in rock music history is just sad. the music industry is so fucked. obviously it's an extremely catchy hook but it's in no way one of the best hooks i've heard. not even close.

[stlilc4]

and obviously a lot of people are gonna give me a thumbs down and all that. cause everyone loves this song. i'm not downing the song or piebald as a band. i'm just saying the statement that this song has the best hook is not at all true - haha maybe the statement this song has one of the most CATCHY hooks in rock music history is more realistic.

[PutzerLovesYou]

Isn't the whole point of a hook to be catchy?

[xxdrowninflamexx]

Well put.

[Ignacio43]

Thank you for analyzing, and voicing your good opinion. People don't realize you enjoy music more when you judge and think about it. It's art, your supposed to analyze it!

[mtplewis]

one of the best hooks in rock music history...HEY. You're part of it.

[jimmycool]

polar bear club does a sick cover of this song :)

[xasdrubalex]

yup? there's a rip of it?

[701Brinkley]

Best Piebald live song. Band put on a good show and this just got me fired up. Bottoms up.

[spoolinhatch]

yep, still blows.

[appleseedan]

your mum blows

[spoolinhatch]

this song fucking blows.

[samwilliams999]

Wow, this song is just so perfectly awesome :)

[Punkrockrulez]

How is the band's name even being pronounced? Is it Pie + Bald? As in the dessert Pie & bald as in a kind of a haircut? I'm so sorie! Just to double-check.

[Sapientiores]

Yup, it's "Pie-Bald," except it's actually a color pattern for certain types of animals, like horses. It's got nothin' to do with dessert. :)

[PunkyDrumrChik]

I still get sad when I hear Piebald... I miss them so much... <3 you guys!!!

[buttjovi]

oh yeah

[TheOutsider112]

Love the guitar and how he sings the chorus.

[cakemanishmael]

He actually looks like he's having the best time in the world. I'd love to be part of a geeky punk-rock outfit like this one. They did it so well, why'd they have to split..?

[MichaelIsleyBand]

this guy is a man for writing this song.

[Phaserz]

its so good

[thepedestrian17]

We Are The Only Friends We Have

[PolandSprings16]

Fucking yes..

[scottya54]

that kids right. the vocalist sucks. anyone who thinks hes good is retarded. piebald itself sucks. they dont have one good song. the vocalist is the worst thing i ever heard!

[homsie33]

it kinda sucks when you get people who just can't appreciate a group of guys who make music because its what they love. he can't change his voice, his friends aren't going to kick him out for another random singer with a better voice. its just pure raw musical passion, and if you dont enjoy it, itd be better if you didn't voice your opinion, because you actually make yourself look like a sad no-life (i tried my hardest to avoid accusing you of having no life)

[thewoodlandfox]

@homsie33 ...better voice? he's got a great voice. and he's got those sexy legs!

[xpiecemealx]

@homsie33 That was heartfelt. Beautiful statement. I never thought about Piebald that way, but you really opened my eyes with your perception of the band.

[bltsub]

@homsie33 whats wrong with his voice?

[thewoodlandfox]

@bltsub booo! go away.

[crapanut]

@homsie33

I like his voice actually :p

[wheredeadmenwalk]

@homsie33 which is why he should just stick to playing guitar. people that can't sing shouldn't. it's pretty simple and this guy sucks a fat chode.

[monzione]

@homsie33 especially when hes not even a bad singer!

[toubass516]

@homsie33 Dude, Don't get bent out of shape. Anyone who criticizes his voice is someone who has probably not been exposed to music that isn't Top 40. And thats the real tragedy, that all these people know is manufactured music put out with only the intent of making money. They will never truly love, know, understand or appreciate good, emotional, cultured, thoughtful, pure, raw music like you and I do.

Yeah, you're part of it.

[Spain401]

@toubass516 i've never been able to put that a good way and not sound like a wanna-be rebel, but you made it sound right haha

[whiteboy654654]

@toubass516 uhh... im sorry to tell you this, but just because they arent top 40 doesnt mean they are original, creative or anything else. these guys sounds like pretty much every other "punk" band out there so quit acting like you know whats up just cuz your favorite band is "underground"

[nehah]

@whiteboy654654 name one band that sounds like them, and has stories like them that drag you in and make you feel like you are truly part of this music.

you are not part of it. if you understood this music, then you would never have made that statement. just another mainstream tool trying to act like YOU know whats up just because you can put punk and underground in quotes.

[DuhImReily]

@whiteboy654654 sir, i wouldn't call this song punk at all.

[kevin33558]

The dude may not be blessed with the greatest vocal range but his voice still meshes well with their style. You can't hate on him for that.

[toimisto1234]

this was an awesome band

[theundone1]

@toimisto1234 Is* they're reuniting :D

[nooneexciting]

piebald sucks. the music is good. the vocalist is the problem. he sucks. anyone can get up and sing better then him.

[razorsattack]

ok dude. mr vocalist expert. thats what makes them great. for 15years now and its all gone. RIP PIEBALD!!!!

[capnmatches35]

okay, mister i think balloon animals are the coolest thing.

[xbasti24x]

love this song!!!!

[jherbert85]

RIP piebald :(

[freddiefernandez]

this song just makes me feel good. idk

[repmidwest]

this is goin on my election day mix

[ragnar336]

"this country is unequal still"

well yea because we are not communist... duh

[humanslayermil]

maybe you should start being it!!

[ragnar336]

nah thats stupid

[humanslayermil]

more like useless

I don´t know...I haven´t try yet

haha

[ChristianHolden]

i like how the kid telling people they know nothing about music says Piebald is nothing close to emo. comparing it to most emo bands like The Promise Ring and old SDRE i'd say its very similar. and emo didn't die in the early 90's, since some of the best emo bands came out in the late 90's and 2000s like thursday, at the drive in, and old saosin, not the new shitty stuff, i'm talking anthony green shit, yeah.... and i'd still say bands like miuns the bear, this town needs guns are still emo.

[sandroxmatic]

yup. it's just a different wave of emo music.

[ppatmcnulty]

Who cares what genre it falls under, you either like a song or you do not. Also if you really want to know what genre the PiebaldMusic user called it, indie rock, look in the tags.

[Fatzylol123]

GO ANDOVER!!!

[mmcrisis8888]

epic song right here

[asmPato]

where is this footage from? the merch booth with the teddy bear looks like the fillmore

[mseales]

HEY

YOU'RE FART OF IT

[Clydelishes]

lol

[lmaolawlzhaha]

LMAO

[scjonas]

Luke Garro could play drums blindfolded in a barn surrounded by chickens with 2 hands tied behind his back. In fact, he does.

[G0thDetect1ve]

Playing Warped Tour is not "making it". Maybe headlining would be. But tours like that are always filled up with smaller bands who aren't quite there yet.

I've never actually haerd of Piebald until today but they do actually sound quite good.

But please stop refering to them as "indie"- they are alternative rock, bordering on emo maybe.

When they actually were together during the "indie era" they were a post hardcore band. So you can't exactly say they came out of the indie era.

[zurton]

how about you stop referring to indie as a genre of music. because its not. indie means the band is on an independent record label. ANY genre of music can be indie. so stfu and stop trying to act like you know what you're talking about. idiot. OH, this is NOTHING close to emo. emo died in the early 90s and is an offshoot of hardcore punk rock. so once again, stfu.

[G0thDetect1ve]

Oh dear, not another person who thinks indie music is a band who is on an indipendent label. That is how the term was coined but it's much more then that now- in fact most bands considered indie are not on independent labels. Indie music now represents the look and sound of the very band, keep up with the times please. And emo dying out in the early 90s? Emo as we know it 'started' in the early 90's with bands like Weezer.

[zurton]

uhhh....no sir. emo started in 1984 with a band called rites of spring. a hardcore punk rock band that was making music with a message that wasnt about politics. get your facts straight. and once again, indie is not a genre. weezer is not an emo band, they WERE post emo, at best. now they are just shitty.

[Superstarseven]

As right as you about everything else, your assessment of Weezer is truly shitty.

[MajorityRule]

Emo started in the 80's with Embrace, Rites of Spring, Gray Matter and Moss Icon.

And indie DOES only mean a band that is on an independent label, you dickfuck. It absolutely IS NOT a genre. I repeat, it IS NOT a genre.

GTFO you failfag.

[rdc123]

fuck you guys suck.

[babblerabla]

@MajorityRule it is now.

[enternameher]

in the uk indie has a diffrent meaning to in the us.

[maththeband]

i dont know what you guys are talking about...

piebald definitely "made it"

remember the years they were on warped tour?

i have never been to a show of theirs that hasnt been old out in my life, and i have seen them at least once a year for the past 5 or 6 years including their final showa couple weeks ago.

[piebaldshotfirst]

The Bald is one of the most underrated bands to come out of the indie era. They never quite "made it," but that was never really the point anyway. Good tunes, Good times, Much love.

From all I've heard and all I've seen. This place has broken my American heart.

I haven't heard truer words spoken in a long time

[ECpimpsta]

these guys kno how to make some catchy ass choruses. thats all lol

[steveorama]

sexy ass band.

[Surfmotion72]

hey,your part of it!

[Limezor]

Shitty emo music. Oops! Its not emo 'till they wear black clothes! Stfu, its totally emo.

[CKretSquirrell]

your gay, oops. I mean your gay

[fuckrocolvin]

shutup faggot

[lies13]

Umm Brazil person DOWNLOAD LIMEWIRE

[MajorityRule]

Only download LimeWire if you want your computer to run 100 times slower than it already does and want a fuckton of viruses and malware.

Try downloading Soulseek instead. Limewire is for 12 year olds who think they know what they're doing and for people who only enjoy the Billboard top 40 hits.

[MajorityRule]

God damn it. I wish I could have seen these guys live before they broke up.

=[

[CKretSquirrell]

they broke up?

[MajorityRule]

That's the word...I think they're playing a few more shows and then going their separate ways.

[bop24buf]

yep, so far theyre playing in nyc and mass. im so excited to see them again. the first time i saw them was the first time i ever heard of them, and thats already when they decided to break up. im excited i get to see them one more time when i actually know some songs. this song live is the one that made me wanna hear more.

[Kidonpatrol]

It's going to be killer. I'm trying to go to both Boston shows.

[wilbert916]

This band is/ was UNDERRATED.

[fearbeforethezombies]

fuck you

[wilbert916]

Hey dumbshit. Read carefully before you post, cockwipe.

[ourlucidream]

criminally underrated

[Kidonpatrol]

I couldn't agree more.

[WorthyOfChange]

me too...its so fucking gay that theres so many people that dont even know them but they do know fags like eminem

[gibberishtwist]

I couldn't have said it better myself.

Saw these guys maybe 7 years ago at a free concert and loved 'em ever since <3

[andreelisei]

does someone know where can I donwload the music's of piebald?

i'm brazilian and where do not have their cd's to sell..

if someone could help..

thankss..

[vlasvlasvlas]

[Isitrainingpodcast]

this brings back memories

[wilbert916]

Hell yeah, brother...

[CrayonMedia]

I love it. ^^

Even though, I DID hear iGeneration before this actual song. -_-

[Surfmotion72]

[ncobbold]

[coryv235]

[dillonpwnshard]

[ncobbold]

piebald picks up depressing moods instantly :)

[alfieadams]

hell yes!! walking down the street the other day all glum. this song came on. and i was bobbing away smiling like a loser. love it

[SA20Anonymous]

better to smile than to glum

[theminusscalekid]

[Babrook]
