Stolen Babies - Filistata

[TheWalrusWrangler]

1:00

[kaze0fox]

Finally Dark Metal that isn't 5 to whatever mins of totally screaming.

[xXpurpletuesdayXx]

@kaze0fox my thoughts exactly

[chefprotoss]

I just heard this on the bungle pandora station and had to check it out. Awesome tune.

[xxitsmewooshi1xx]

Marlin manson-ishh! :D

[guilbartt3006]

damn epic riffs

[pesbdjs]

stolen babies and diablo swing orchestra the best of all history avant garde metal groups

[Cocorikot]

Bass intro FTW

[jsem94]

The fact that this is from their ONLY album is criminal. They must release more.

[uiruu]

I can totally hear the Mr Bungle influence. Unlike most bands inspired by the works of Sir Michael Patton, Stolen Babies doesn't suck.

[metalphilic]

This has to be one of the greatest songs ever written! <3

[hiperson135]

love LOVE dark cabaret...

[KriBlackRoson]

they're soo fabulous, I fell in love!!!

[GoBrowns11000]

Fuckin A Carnival Rock. Try some Mr. Bungle too. I think anyone reading these posts will not be disappointed.

[ABetterYesterday]

I really regret looking up 'Filistata'... I'm shit scared of spiders.

[abominationjack]

There is no pain/ just hate and empty tears/blind, hollow eyes/and webs over the ears. Well said.

[Flore2938]

Pretty much my favorite song by this band.

[chaplin270]

just found them not bad man it reminds me of Tim Burton

[nikothrasheh]

very cool but i prefer diablo swing orchestra !!!!!

[Zara0692]

i love this song..but the beginning makes me think scooby doo :D

[jezkn]

@Zara0692 .... and the theme tune to the 'Adams Family/Munsters' !

[jiedde78]

great band, great imagery, catchy but not poppy, it also reminds me of something that would have come out in the late ninetys...

[xBloodxRedxRavenx]

Miss Muffet anyone? 

[EnolaTheSiikopath]

FUCKING AWESOME. It sounds so demented..... yet also sounds like a story being told by a maniac.... I LOVE IT. <3

[XxMissNoNamexX]

Oh. My. God. OH MY GOD. OMIGODWTF. Best thing ever. Seriously.

[energizerbunny567]

i just found out about this band and i love them already~

do they remind anyone else of creature feature?? :)

[tikalfan]

@energizerbunny567 Yes they do just a little less humorous (:

[Cagedand3nRaged]

Sounds like a song from the perspective of a sociopath, or something. :P

[arnyri]

OMFG upright bass love! <3 Nothing like it!

[Aridcreaturehere]

This song is love. ;3

[AFatFoe]

very theatrical :)

[MrProfessornutbutter]

Doth my ears detect an upright bass in the beginning of this song?

[TomatoDemon]

Love the band, and this song is awesome.

[Wretchedways]

1:38 through 2:05 makes me shiver... In a good way >=]

[MrCotopaxi]

this song could easily be soundtrack of Beetlejuice:D

[Blitzer75]

soo creepy

[SicMaggot6699]

reminds me of a little peace of heaven by avenged sevenfold

[boppila]

i love it

[bionicle72]

love..!!!

[ziggystardutst9]

STRANGE but good

[lanbo28]

EPIC! <3

[Mhur1]

einfach geil!

[Rapplescallion]

these guys are great! they remind me alot of creature feature...

[CynicalSkeleton]

I fucking love these guys. :)

[silverbaal]

Love stolen babies

[theheckwithit]

happy hallowwen y'all

[AstaPil]

i looooove this song!!:D

[EdRob666]

fantastic song,, i too found it from the "my name is mark" podcast, fantastic band,, correct me if im wrong but i seem to hear "gothic, ska and rock" all rolled into one, very effective :D

[HolyChristianMetal]

Hmmmm, is this Dark Cabaret? I'm not very experienced in this field, but great song.

[SnowWhiteQueen29]

@HolyChristianMetal According to Wikipedia they are.

[EpicFail345]

@HolyChristianMetal stolen babies have a large dark cabret influence, but are heavier than most other DC bands.

[SaraSchenstrom]

@HolyChristianMetal It's more like avant-garde metal, but influenced by dark cabaret. Check out artists like Tiger Lillies, Dresden Dolls, Birdeatsbaby and Jill Tracy to get a good sense of the genre. :) (At least in my opinion.)

[LeDiskoLove99]

@HolyChristianMetal Avant-Garde metal. And I agree it is a great song!

[ilovegames08]

i am loving this song tbh (; x

[lucyinthesky16]

oh my gosh...i was looking for a certain kind of music. something that sounded like "Carousel" by Mr. Bungle.....

I JUST FOUND IT!

[LionelMcSassafras]

@lucyinthesky16 fucking right

[spongebobwebkinz111]

If it weren;t for Mark Hoppus of blink-182, I wouldn't have found out abotu this band, and I love themmm~

[MartyredxMaiden]

Unfortunately I have to work on it. I almost have the storyboard complete. I just need to work on the art and everything, LOL. Thanks for the encouragement u guys <3

[Devicon]

I love this song. What does Filistata mean?

[adiclm29]

It's a species of spider.

[DivineDemonStudios]

@adiclm29 is it anything spectacular? like deadly poison or something~? :D I would look it up but I'm afraid I'll get pictures and I'm terrified of spiders :'''D

[8KingFisher]

@DivineDemonStudios Don't worry, spiders are our friends!

Filistata is actually a genus within the order of spiders (Araneae). It's a small grouping of species who are fairly common and aren't generally harmful.

Love the band, and hate myself for not knowing about them sooner! =O

[MartyredxMaiden]

I love the circus theme. It fits my latest graphic novel. Its a Dark Fantasy about Jesters and their masters battling it out to free their immortal souls . Its great to have music that helps the atmosphere. I can choose a "Opening" and "Ending" theme.

[TheBandkanon]

...I am so planning on reading your graphic novel if that's the case. +STALKS+

[Tebibeawulf]

yeah.....uhm where can i take a gander at this?

[SuperAwesomeDewd]

Oh? Is your graphical novel available anywhere?

[RavenofSorrow13]

Music is a powerful aiding tool in developing a story. Hope you encounter more music for your story/graphic novel.

[BrokenIVN91]

@RavenofSorrow13 Sopor Aeternus could work

[exegesis67]

definite Cardiacs influences here. not quite on that level (who is???) but Stolen Babies are a great band.

[missmystery101]

Love this song also schoolyard heroes! My fav band....

[DemoneyesKyo013]

I love this song <3 its amazing

hard to belive the only reason i found out about them is that amazon recommended them with creature feature and Polkadot cadaver

[Tebibeawulf]

That's how i heard about them too! haha.

[smashbrosdotmaniac]

This song gets WAY stuck in your head! ^_____^

[psychosocialistic]

if you like stolen babies, you might like spiderland circus too.

[aichax3]

thanks!

[psychosocialistic]

i love stolen babies. nothing better.

[IrishGamingSociety]

i love stealing babies. nothing better.

[Gresaaa]

GAHHH <333333333

[rabinastian]

this band is amazing!!!!!!!!!

[PullyElbow27]

Really cool band. Heard a song by them on Mark Hoppus's podcast and had to check them out.

[TicTacOnline]

this is the best song ever

[hideandseek2008]

love em, they're great

[claragarro]

i love stolen babies (L)

[Tebibeawulf]

A filistata is a type of spider. love it.

[zulydubi]

this sounds great

[Shea0Tarded]

i started listening 2 them last night and i must stay, i LOVE them, easily one of my favorits. i havnt heard a single song i dont like, and dominique has an amazing voice

[Djsonofthedevil666]

I just heard them 2 days ago and i have to say the same

[Punketalero]

This is their best song with no doubt

[narutoroxoutloud]

my friend at school showed me this band...and im thankful for that...these guys rock!

[RE4RamonSalazarfan]

I love stolen babies!!

[CerealEater]

it reminds me of beetlejuice for some reason...

[TheVideoProBaby]

LOL I know what u mean

[twomoonrocks]

not just beetlejuice pretty much all the tim burton movies

[ohdangitskat]

exactly !

[Tebibeawulf]

there's another band that i think sounds a lot like this kind of thing-Creature Feature.

[xbanxsanityx]

i LOVE creature feature.

and they do sound rather similar. my mother can't tell the difference XD

[AndaliteAngel]

CF is the best band in the world. I love Solen Babies, TBM, and Rob Zombie, too, but NOTHING can ever beat CF. XD

Love this song by the way. It's so addicting!

[stuckupangela]

i don't think i can top what you just said

i think exactly the same thing

[funlivelife]

CF??

[AndaliteAngel]

Creature Feature. The best band in the world! They're the ones that introduced me to Stolen Babies, The Birthday Massacre, and Schoolyard Heroes in the first place. XD

[kojurama11]

Im like the only person that loves Stolen Babies and dislikes Creature Feature, similar but different enough for me to dislike one lol.

[stuckupangela]

seriously?

they are both very similar and i love both

[DragonBoy897]

me too

[Laenthar]

pure dark cabaret metal

[lunekosama]

lol this songs about a spider

[kuikentje888]

omg. you're insane.

[KKoRnFreaKK]

Are you kidding?

This is awesome.

[UndeadAngel993]

Hmm....just learned about this band.

Not bad. Not bad at all.

[sharky168]

Fuck, i love Stolen Babies so much.

I only found out about them 2 days ago and i have downloaded every single song of their.

I havent heard one song that i dislike.

TimBurton-core at its best.

[overether]

what'd you use to dl?

[sharky168]

Just find a torrent of the album.

Alternatively you can use limewire.

[RightOnQ]

Dark cabaret, yes?

[CarojinWarrior]

And/or advante-garde, however you spell it.

[CarojinWarrior]

I totally meant to say "avant" lol.

[Zellkindes]

Hm, listening to them kinda reminds me of Creature Feature. They're pretty good <3

[1986ElCaminoftw]

Sounds like it belongs in a Tarantino movie.

[Sochanu]

more like a tim burton, lol

[ccshow1]

Yeah, Tarantino's more into the funk my friend.

[cyrios]

i gotta admit i heard stolen babies for the first time about 2 weeks ago, but damn these guys got talent, i love the whole avant garde, dark cabaret influence they got, theyre awesome its nice to see we still got bands with originality

[temporaryguy]

I actually think avant-garde is a mislabel. They're just a fusion of dark cabaret and metal.

[CeeCeeCatastrophe]

okay this sounds nothing like the dresden dolls....what are people getting at?? it sorta reminds me of creature feature but a femal perspective. lol i love them either waaay :]

[CriekyInMaPants]

Great band. and great bass ;)

[epicmartyr]

friggen incredible

[StagnantObserver]

One of the most unique and respectable bands I've heard in a long time.

[MuffinSociety]

I just googled Filistata and it's a kind of spider-cool.

[elissa95]

i love this song :D

[JAEMJO]

I love this band. And yeah, nobody I know has even heard about them! That sucks.... I heard these guys first from the cd that came with rock sound-magazine. And this girl can really sing and scream! Awesome!

[stolenbaby2008]

This one is my absolute favorite

[Firesongfeather]

I love the bass at the begining of this song!

[angelpagano1]

I love Stolen Babies...

[DanielleLovesAFI]

It's sad that barely anyone knows who Stolen Babies are. They kick ass! They remind me of a combination of Otep and Creature Feature. Hell yeah! <3 <3 <3

[CarojinWarrior]

they chose to stay underground, because they didn't want to be sell outs or pressured into changing their style to "please people."

it's in thier latest interview :P

[PinkSpiderJedi]

Hey could you link me to that interview please?

[CarojinWarrior]

Sorry, I never got this comment.

It's in their MySpace blog.

[stonerlovenny]

I don't think they sound a thing like Otep.0_0

[Laurichu]

habla en cristiano mamoncia, estate orgullosa de tu lengua. xD

[XxGothicBookwormxX]

haha - i lvoe this song - its so nightmare before christmasy - pure <3

[motagirl2]

ABSOLUTELY love this song :)
