The Airborne Toxic Event - Numb (Bombastic Video)

[DevrouxAlter]

I love the smirk right before the instruments come in.

[therealclaimor]

That smile at the end... Job done. Sublime.

[johnnycabot]

These guys are freaking awesome.

[missplunderbunny25]

brilliant

[valentinetsm]

I absolutely hated the 'official' video to this song. It was so overdone and not what I've come to expect/love from TATE. It also bugged me the way Anna suddenly had ten pounds of makeup, a more revealing outfit, the hair flipping. Aside from that video, I think Anna is a great role model for young girls. My six year old runs around saying "violin/viola is my musical talent". I intend to show her a TATE video and point out Anna.

[ThePathtoDarkness]

His smirk gets me every time :)

[TiffanyRoyaleS]

Makes you just wanna give him a hug!

[Woguyful]

Who is the idiot, who doesn't like this ?!!!!!!!!!

[swetomsawyer]

Great version guys! =)

[diablorojo27]

i wasnt a fan of this song until i saw this video. and it won me over immediately. the whispering beginning is by fart the best part

[TheOnlineFadDiet]

Every last word,

[skylerlee22]

OMG I am totally committing mortal sins in my mind right now love love LOVE his voice ;)

[LosPomo]

The drummer is sooo under-rated. I'm a guy and I'd have his baby!

[asterhogan1]

I wish i was the bus driver so badly right now!

[Paulsg90]

I like how the lead singer actually looks like he has tears welling up. That alone made this video amazing. The quiet start the gloomy looks, the dark bus, the dark night with lit city lights passing them by. I love how passionate these guys are about their music. Love The Airborne Toxic Even.

[baroqnglass]

I never really paid attention to these guys before...I stumbled on these Bombastic vids and OMG! I'm mesmirized. I'm a total fan now, I want to see them live!

[jjcucio]

Bringing passion back to music. Nice.

[CriticsConfession]

This song is really helping me get over a shitty night. Always loves Airborne. Mikel's songs always help me through so much shit in life.

[mystery379]

Counting down the days to see you guys in New York! just amazing!

[InspiringThem]

haha the whisper in the beginning gave me chills

[jacobarcherrocks]

About ten thousand of these views are from me. This is way better than the original. though it is obvious that Mikel is trying to be serious too hard.

[shortiesworld]

i think i found my new addiction !!!

[Arlgm]

I love how Mikel's always the only one to crack a smile.

[InnocenceLovePeace]

I cant sleep tonight I cant breathe... but If i drink tonight I'll get you off my mind...

[raebles1234]

@InnocenceLovePeace best line ever

[paraspotify]

This is ART!! I Love their music *.*

[monkeyboy964]

i dont like this guys

[axecutioner]

@monkeyboy964 Your writing suits your screen name.

[artstar4]

I think I'm gonna go buy this album tomorrow.

[jeaninemarie65]

@artstar4 amazing album. get the deluxe version. It is worth the extra cash

[artstar4]

@jeaninemarie65 thanks i'll check that out!

[altrockfan267]

I love their lyrics. It's nice to find a band which actually writes poetry for their songs, and doesn't fill it with unnecessary cursing and pointless words just to make it rhyme.

[ashlequinn]

one person is to fucking numb to realize this song is fucking beautiful GOD DAYUMMM

[hawksbs]

i like how at the exact moment the video is half way over he says half 1:24

[lauralynnendsley]

@hawksbs That was seriously observant!

[hawksbs]

@lauralynnendsley haha yup

[adamsand1989]

f*king awesome :)

[dog93slvfl]

I will guess that the person that click the dislike buttom was so amazed with this song that he got confused, because theres no way someone can DISLIKE this amazing song. one of my fav bands they are AMAZING!!!!!

[ane404738]

i thought it said," i just wanna be known" instead of numb, i dont know why

[mmh166]

atomic tom!

[BassPCMagik]

@caxxandra2, i didn't know he became a professor of the arts, but very interesting to know, it is obviously true that we all learn something new everyday :)

[Mrgamer2324]

The Drummer is EPIC!! All Casual! PERFECT!

[Arastusamad]

Beautiful!

[FakePlasticBones]

I think The Airborne Toxic Event should make a acoustic album.

That would be epic!

[MoreOverlords111]

@FakePlasticBones I would buy that in a heartbeat. I've ordered the Bombastic DVD along with the album, hopefully I can rip the audio somehow. These are just wonderful.

[mareezy909]

loooooooove it!

[BassPCMagik]

@M3rcyl355Gam3r hate to break it to you mate, he aint even Chinese, he is American of Asian decent, and if he was dumb I seriously doubt he would have got this far as a guitarist

[caxxandra2]

@BassPCMagik well said. steven is the sweetest and most generous low key kinda guy. by the way he doesn't just play guitar...

in addition he recenly became a professor of the arts. no place for haters here!

the entire band as awhole is more educated and talented than any other band out there.

besides this amazing music is all that really matters.

"..Gam3r" must be jealous and in need of a life!

[MoreOverlords111]

I never thought near-monotone singing could convey so much emotion. Brilliant.

[iinfamouszgeorgette]

Mikel's smirk could launch a thousand ships

[ThePurpleNinja4209]

@M3rcyl355Gam3r well he gets laid more than you do. And he actually has talent.

[BibbsMcgibbs]

This band is awesome.

p.s.  Jim Halpert has a great voice. ;)

[katiecoole101]

There is so much emotion and pain in his performance, no matter how controlled it may seem. Beautiful.

[AnGeLWiNgS93]

I love Mikel's smile in the beginning. I literally... melted. *_*

[slaser1]

1 person is a numb....

[thatTsen]

This video is way better the official video makes you look soft.

[kaydec19]

I love this band so much!!!

[lockwoodhms1]

This is so haunting.... yet so beautiful at the same time. Once again, The Airborne Toxic Event has blown me away with their brilliance. I wish more bands were as hardworking as these guys. The blow my mind every time. This is a band of geniuses.

[zoinomiko]

I also love that you guys have very intelligent, well-spoken fans. ;)

[theairborne145]

haunting

[theairborne145]

got stared out by steven :/

[dreamlish2007]

I just can't stop watching this video. The Airborne Toxic Event work harder than so many bands I've seen, from the songwriting to the shows to the effort they go into promoting their music (Bombastic was a genius idea) to the love they show to their fans... I love them so much.

[dangerousnegro1]

I cant sleep at night, I cant breathe but if I drink tonight I'll get you off my mind..

[bosoxrox18]

Damn.

I wish I was riding this bus when it happened.

[anthonyproductionify]

Who can't like this perfect song?

[bgkjake]

I love how Anna plays the viola like a ukelele!

[laidinusa]

@bgkjake it's not a uke

[bgkjake]

@laidinusa I said like a uke. Not that she was playing one. Come on man, why does it matter? She kicks ass, Mike kicks ass, Noah kicks ass, Daren kicks ass, Steven kicks ass. And they make beautiful, spectacular  videos.

[bgkjake]

@bgkjake i said like a ukelele

[ravensfan211]

It continues to amaze me how a band who set the bar so high with their first album continues to push it higher. After they released the bombastic video of All at Once, I thought that performance was untoppable. But this... no other song I know manages to put feelings into words like this. It might sound lame, but every word in this song just makes sense to me. The feeling of the sleepness night to come, how things don't feel real when I think about her. And it performed so quietly... wow.

[Baldpoodle]

Excellent as expected.

[WashingtonSYRA]

Pure genius. The setting alone makes this song. Then the whispered start, the vacant stares, the empty feeling... This is brilliant. Don't ever stop.

[LeondraL]

@WashingtonSYRA

Yes, TATE is absolutely brilliant!

[dreamlish2007]

Sublime.

[zoinomiko]

It never fails to blow me away how powerful your music is. I've been waiting for the bombastic of this song since you released the actual video and it still blew away all my expectations. Amazing!

[HalogenDrum]

You guys are without doubt the best fucking band in the world.

May you drink the blood of your enemies.

[dkuhnle2]

Each week gets better. 2 more weeks until the album i released.

[Poelilith]

This version has way more impact than the "official" video- love the bare bones simplicity. The seemingly near vacant nighttime bus fits the mood of the song better.

[misteryne]

wow. I dont think ive ever seen something so simple say so much.

[mojodavi]

feels like every week i have to check for a new bombastic video but once they're out i play the hell out of them

[dumbgamer88]

Fuck YEAH! I love it! Keep it up guys!

[masterjellyrolllemon]

YES!!!! First view
