  • not bad, but what the fuck is up with his voice?

  • BOOOM!

    

  • They all sound the same. I wouldn't be able to tell the songs apart.

  • Comment removed

  • the part at 1:27 is just awesome

  • WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH WA WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA WA WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA­AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA­AAAAA WAA WHAAAA WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

  • Oh man. In about 10 minutes I went from hating this band to loving it.

  • real lyrics:

    WAGHGABRLGRKGWAAGHJKL AAAHAHASHGKLJGGLUH WNONOGHJRKLG

  • this song is fuckin epic omg

  • This rapes every shitty generic metalcore band I've ever heard.

    It's like Unsane on meth.

  • @Vaicurious the thing is when people who are used to the mint production quality of metalcore hear this, they ignore the actual music and only notice how bad the production iscompared to their fuckin Motionless In White garbage

  • @Vaicurious This is generic too.

  • @Ezzpen it's actually one of the original bands to do this sort of sound.

  • good thing about this band is you can't label them. they're Converge. you can say it's screamo, hardcore, math, grind, extreme metal (whatever the fuck that is).

    Truth is it's an excellent mix of music which they have molded to their own style. We need bands like these, love it or hate it. It is muscial progression.

  • @JordiSmulders It's blarrrgghhhhhhhhhcore

  • Am i the only one who loves the rawness of the vocals? O.o

    I love growls but the second i herd bannon's screams i was hooked

    some people are weird lol

  • 0:32

    NEEDS MORE COWBELL!

  • @lmiface

    I always thought it said 'debauchery' repeatedly. Probably is just random shouting though, I dunno.

  • I don't get why people don't like Jacob Bannon's vocals. I think they're wonderful, and I haven't even been listening to these guys long enough to consider it an acquired taste.

  • One of the best bands of the last 20 years.

    If you don't like Converge then please go back to listening to poppy shit like Avenged Sevenfold if this is too heavy for you.

  • Hardcore is the best. Check out Weekend Nachos or Despise You if you like Converge or extreme punk.

  • @Trevor9849 those are both on this comp kills fascists, is that where you heard em? if not, check it out. owen hart is on there, and they fucking own.

  • @scmshtbrady Yeah I have heard its fucking rad. Have you listened to Trap Them? They remind me a LOT of Converge for some reason.

  • @Trevor9849 CONVERGE'S lead guitarist produced a couple of their albums, darker handcraft is awesome

  • @Trevor9849 no for some reason..converge is direct influence of them....

  • This guy sounds like the old vocalist for after the burial. I'm so glad they got a new one.

  • Best band of the last 10 years! Hands down!!! 100%! Fuck Radiohead & The White Strips. Nothing hits me like Converge. Nothing.

  • Did he scream at the end: "The drugs help me, the drugs help me"?

  • @Imiface

    doubt it. jacob bannon's vegan straight edge.

  • @grindmetalhead Is he? I never knew that. Was he SE back in those days as well?

  • @Imiface

    haha sorry wish I could tell you but I don't know.

  • @Imiface all lyrics for every converge song are the same dude, he simply said "RARAARAARAH, RARAARAARAH"

  • Best song on the album... maybe tied with Thaw.

  • needs more cowbell

  • more cowbell

  • NO LOVE. NO HOPE.

  • First song I heard by Converge almost a decade ago. Hardcore fan ever since.

  • I saw these guys open for Mastodon and Dethklok and they got booed off the stage.

  • @GeneralMillss are you fucking kidding me...  This band beats the shit out of those two bands anyday

  • @bgtbvc3 Yes... that's definitly why they were opening for them... yes...

  • @GeneralMillss oh yeah dude cuz popularity definitely defines talent...

  • @TheDallyLama They certainly aren't unrelated.

  • @GeneralMillss tell that to justin bieber

  • @TheDallyLama He is actually a fairly talented singer. I never said talent is proportional to popularity, but some of the best musicians in the world aren't popular cause they are cute and catchy.

  • @GeneralMillss Ppl hated them in Chicago too, like a bunch of their fans congregated in one spot while the whole rest of the crowd was like GTFO. Im not much a fan of these guys and they werent great live, but they just were too out of place on that tour. When they had their own show in chicago the next year it was insane

  • @rockprogmetal Yeah. I don't mind this band, they aren't really my thing, but a hardcore band playing at a pretty progressive metal show is just weird.

  • @GeneralMillss It's probably because Converge and Mastodon are pretty close. When Mastodon first started, they were actually kind of hardcore, with metal elements, and then they started doing progressive metal. If you listen to the song Naked Burn by Mastodon it really makes me think of metalcore.

  • @GeneralMillss Or not the song naked burn. Workhorse is what I meant, got em' mixed up.

  • @GeneralMillss Well, Mastodon is so-so, and Dethklok is a shitty band that should have just stayed on that mediocre show they came from, so I wouldn't be surprised that the crowd was dumb enough to do that. Hell, I'd imagine it'd be full of a bunch of poseurs who don't know anything simply because Dethklok was there.

    And no.

    Popularity is not related to how good or talented a band is.

  • @ThazuaBlackarrow Mastodon is most certainly not "so-so", good sir.

  • @ThazuaBlackarrow thats true but converge are pretty popular for a band that stuck to their own sound, and on mastodon, just shut up they are godly and popular, and trust me ive been jaded because i listen to Pretty much all metal, try amogh symphony for an underrated band

  • I remember when these guys played locals shows at a little hole-in-the-wall venue near where I used to live. 50 people in the place, $7-8 door...

    hahaha. I never knew they'd get so big.

  • @FridayMortimer69 polar bear club played some local shows where i lived, and they're starting to get decently big now. it's kinda cool watching bands grow like that

  • @EpsilonX totally.

  • Always will be one of my top three bands!

  • this song needs moar...ahh fuck it

  • 0:32, Hard cowbell action!!

  • ROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOCK~~~~~~~~~~~~­~~~~~~~

  • You know, I hear really good things about the lyrics for this album, and I am really intrigued, being a lyricist myself, but I choose not to read them. I believe the concept of the album is watching a girl that was once loved, fade away into anonyminity. And I believe that's why the lyrics were made unintelligible, to be faceless, just like Jane Doe. I don't mean to sound like a pretentious douche or anything, I just don't want to wreck the concept for me. It is quite beautiful.

  • @ANTIanitmetalclub spot on, man.  my thoughts exactly.

  • @0m

    Nice to see someone else who thinks that way, haha.

    Honestly, the only lyrics I know from this album are "I'll take my love to the grave," "no love, no hope," and "run on." And I like it that way. :]

  • jacob bannon's throat for president

  • jacob bannon is not human. human beings should NOT be able to make these sort of screams.

  • @lostenmusic

    pff should too i'd kill to be able to do that :D

  • @Gorglazon i wish everyone just did that instead of talking, it would make everything so much more interesting

  • Comment removed

  • They peaked at this album for sure...

  • hipster shit

  • @MrWaeseL if this is hipster then im a seven cocked elephant ordering pizza at mcdonalds

  • @CPRpaintball a lot of hipsters do listen to converge...however, if youre one of those who doesnt just listen to it because you think it makes you cool, good for you.

  • @thychaos

    dude just...dlfhakdfashfkjasdhfk i've been hearing hipster alot lately...care to explain what one is so I can put my 2 cents in? From what i know, if you listen to a band or do something because you think it makes you "cool", it means you're a poser. So is a poser the same thing as a hipster?

  • @Gorglazon a hipster will try as hard as he can to be cooler and smarter than you. he will only listen to bands that are deemed smart and cool to like by other hipsters on the internet who then encourage each other. a hipster is a little different from a poser, i think. a poser doesnt really try to be smart and an arrogant asshole, they just pretend to like something. hipsters will make fun of you for not liking what they like, theyre bigots. hipsters are fuckin faggots.

  • @thychaos

    aah thank you :D so basically, they're just poser 2.0. The new and improved version thinks it's better than you...sigh, every year there's a group of people that get worse and worse...

  • @thychaos I like how you called hipsters "biggots", then follow that up by calling them "fucking faggots." That is irony (and stupidity) at its best.

  • @TetraVaalBioSecurity nope, its just the truth. are you a butthurt hipster?

  • @thychaos ...the validity of your statements isn't the issue here, nor is me being a "hipster", it's the fact you called a certain group of people "biggots", only to follow that up by using a derogatory term towards homosexuals. I simply pointed out the irony and the stupidity of your comments. You're an idiot.

  • @TetraVaalBioSecurity lol look at this faggot taking youtube seriously. oops, i said it again. please dont be offended, fag.

  • @thychaos ...again, I'm not offended by the comment, you illiterate moron. I simply pointed out how contradicting and stupid your statement was.

    You can call me every derogatory remark you want, it still won't make up for your intellectual inadequacies.

  • @TetraVaalBioSecurity haha, i get it, i get it. youre smart, youre an intellectual. XD

    you got mad, buddy.

  • Comment removed

  • @thychaos No, I didn't get mad... if anything, I got a laugh out of how vapid your responses were.

    Hypothetically, even if I did get mad, what would you say? Would you use some out-dated internet meme like "U MAD?", as if that hasn't been beatened to death already.

  • @TetraVaalBioSecurity didnt even read your comment, but knowing that youre still commenting back tells me, youre mad. :)

  • @thychaos Oh, you definitely read it.

  • @TetraVaalBioSecurity nah, youre mad.

  • @thychaos Since you're so desperate to play it off like you didn't read my comment, only to come back with the same repetitive, thoughtless response... I'd say it's you, that is mad. I've at least gotten under your skin enough that your miniscule brain can't think of anything clever to respond with, so you keep using the same out-dated cliche that I predicted you'd do two comments ago. I'm sure you'll come back with the same repetitive remark, so I'll just end this here.

  • @TetraVaalBioSecurity haha another long comment im not going to read. i must have really pissed you off.

  • @TetraVaalBioSecurity you sir just trolled nasty style lol. good job.

  • @thychaos lol at using bigots and faggots in the same paragraph. a little contradicting

  • @thecza12 lol at thinking that "faggot" still always means im calling you gay. quiet, faggot.

  • @thychaos still a contradiction. yet i will heed your command. for i dare not argue with someone of your strength and valiance....the youtube warrior......

  • longest 3 min of all my life!!!  awesome =D

  • i like the part where bannon goes "rrraaaahhhh"

  • someone bring this band to the goddamn philippines.

  • GET RAPED, FAGGOTS!

  • FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU­UUUUUU- :D

  • their music definatly takes some time to get use to, But go see them live and i bet you will never forget the show.

  • @Corsair2102 Arab on Radar takes time to get used to...If you like heavy music and don't LOVE Converge, something is wrong with your ears. Jane Doe,especially...They really peaked on this album.

  • HA anybody every been to a converge show and not seen somebody get seriously hurt? Say what you will, but this is still some of the hardest shit out there.

  • Really good quality video :) I love this song, I just don't get how the vocals can actually be words sometimes, in other songs when he actually sings you can't even tell what he's saying lmao

  • Converge's take on "pop-rock hardcore" ... catchy!

  • best album by converge

  • This song is so.so.damn.catchy. Converge must be a pop band!

    lawlz, for real though, Jane Doe like, changed my perception on what it means to make heavy music. It's like, everything about extreme metal and hardcore stripped down and personified in its purest form, which is an unbridled expression of anger and fury.

  • @myhigherpie2 it's pop-rock at it's roots with a hardcore twist ;)

  • @myhigherpie2 Yeah,man...They play from their fucking hearts. It's what's missing with most bands today.

  • 1 word=Epic

  • Fucking love this! Ultimate Moshpit!

  • sHE_GUSTO

  • I remember some years ago when they played that song, Jacob announced it, "this song is about the worst person I've ever met in my whole life."

  • @KrakenKid when did he said that?

  • Well, that's been a while. It was in Germany, in Karlsruhe. I *think" it was during their You Fail Me tour.

  • @KrakenKid I'M LOOKING FOR THIS VIDEO RIGHT NOW UHG I FOUND IT ONCE BEFORE AND LOST IT AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH­HHHHHH. I just googled and found this comment. FUUUUUUUU--

  • FUCKKKKK!!!!!!!!!!

  • Jacob Bannon's vocals, admittedly are something to get used to, but once you do you cant get enough. They are raw and aggressive and powerful, which is evrything that they need to be.

  • Still not too fond of those vocals but I reckon if I listen to them enough I'll get used to them xP

  • i dont see why there calling the vocals bad. there so fucking raw and agressive. this guys voice is fucking cool. goes so well as a texture atop the music. Oya and FUCK JEANJACKETS!

  • honestly, my favourite song of all time, especially after seeing them live in Sheffield last year

  • The vocals are something you have to get used to. And with converge you have to listen to everything a few times to really get it...but once you do every time there is that pause and then shit gets REAL it gives me fucking chill bumps. 1:25

  • I agree with you for the most part, but I knew this song was amazing the first time I heard it

  • So is your dick :]

  • I lol'd so hard

  • @michaelgavinet think more artistically...the art is in the details....

  • BUBBLE-GUM POPROCK FROM 2050/2060

  • Yeah, because us Converge fans are fucking awesome to be fair. you will find that most of us are musicians. we appreciate the technicality and the hard work that goes into their songs.

    female guitarist (:

  • No Love!  No hope!

  • best album ever

  • more cowbell

  • There is no such thing as good and bad music... Some one could say that this is not even music its a guy screaming his head off!!! But we like it so why judge what others listen to?

  • great point of view

  • you speak on my behalf....I can see we are like mined people....

  • The guitar sound very familiar. Regardless great fucking song. Converge amazes me.

  • i like good heavy fuckin metal just as much as the next guy but this sounds like my little sister crying wen she doesn't get her way... needs deeper vocals... and more clear vocals... can't understand anything even when looking at the lyrics.

  • Deep vocals suck.

  • There really aren't lyrics. When Converge creates something, they just put forth whatever comes freely and naturaly to them, which is why they can produce such emotionally powerful songs. They've already confirmed that making lyrics is mostly an afterthought.

  • no way. this is fuckin visceral hardcore. suits the music. who cares if you cant understand what hes saying, just consider it as another instrument.

  • thats the converge mindset. people just need to be open minded and they'll realize this band is incredible

  • if you open your mind too much your brain will fall out.

    *i am actually a converge fan, i just couldnt resist*

    :)

  • fair enough haha

  • yeah haha that's basically what i do

  • Holy shit one of the best albums I've ever heard.

  • Omg pls dont go insulting heavy music and then go and name drop some horrible fake metal band like slipknot. Grow up.

  • Lol Slipknot is boring. Listen to good music. Ya fuck :D

  • who gives a shit WHAT you call it or WHAT your stupid fucking scene is?

    You either like good music (Converge being a part of that very vast and expansive group of "good music") or you like bad music (I was going to say Avril Lavigne or something...but is it really fair we stoop to a level and even bother calling that "music"?).

  • This is definitely not screamo. That's like calling the Locust screamo.

  • its awfully good

  • Converge rules : )

  • I cant figure out how that screamo and deathcore bullshit sells like fucking hotcakes while Converge gets mostly ignored wtf man

  • b/c this is not very mainstream-accessible, and it doesn't have breakdowns so that ignorant scene kids could get into without even listening...

  • those drum rolls are funny.

  • der schreit ja Nur rumm, lol

  • ich glaub du bist hier falsch

    das is kein pussy rnb sondern harte musik deswegen würde ich vorschlagen das du keine sinnlosen kommentare mehr auf liedern wie dieses hier hinterlässt

  • brutal

  • shit this song is fucking intense. I got into Converge not too long, and I'm falling for this album.

  • I've been listening to Converge for about 10 years and the lyrics on jane doe and you fail me are very emotional, but I've always enjoyed them for the most part. I really did like No Heroes a lot too. All their albums are well done, they really play their heart out and have for like what, almost 20 years now? Jezz

  • man no one will ever tie you up and force to hear this...if you don't understand this sogn please don't throw shit on it

  • Haha this kid ^^^is so fucking lame, he has a video on his channel of him making out with his cat.

  • so what? tom is not funny, tom is not even smart, tom is a piece of fucking asshole writing shit on the internet. i really dont get why you fuckers must be so offensive to everyone who's just saying his opinion .. (and yes, i do like converge)

  • Fuck you ass hole, i think that kid is lame thats my opinion.

  • you dont have an opinion

  • go listen to against me! your way to cool to talk to people

  • was that supposed to be an insult?

    try harder.

  • no i dont want to borrow justin timberlake cd's goddamn dude stop bugging me

  • justin timberlake, wtf?

    you embarrass yourself.

  • you are a moron! it is one of the most simple songs by converge and it has got a straight direction, it's kinda a pop song, just heavier than most of the other music.

  • jane doe is such a badass album. gives me boner just thinking about it!

  • Jacob's vocals where you can't even fucking understand a word from the lyrics only add to the beauty of Converge's music. They do not need better vox because they already have them and they are amazing.

  • I feel sorry for people who can't understand a song at all unless they can see the lyrics. Music being about words is just terribly depressing.

    You're right on! Music isn't to be heard. It's to be felt.
