I Am The Avalanche - Brooklyn Dodgers

[ben2nd]

I shall leave all you post hardcore hipsters to enjoy this boring music. Cheerio

[poppunklifestyle]

To think that half these kids don't even know who The Movielife is... a sad day

[Duckingsix]

If you like this listen to Balance and Composure

[PunksNotDead2011]

these guys are the best thing ive heard for fuckin ages! :)

[lazyguy671]

like if your gonna see them at Soundwave!

[MrMatthewsowl]

FINALLY some real punk rock in this world and no more shitty POP punk douchebags

[jimmymb20]

@MrMatthewsowl sounds like Pop Punk to me!

[bradcranwell]

like if you have heard of them before

[gohst4]

like if your here becasue they're in vans warped tour and you've never heard them before!

[TheCablos]

@gohst4 sad, these guys are awesome 

[xyouralivex]

@gohst4 is every band playing at warped going to soundwave too? seriously seen this popped up so many times when im looking up new bands going soundwave

[NiteOwlNation]

@gohst4 I'm here because of Frank Iero and I'm going to Warped to see them (along with Sleeping With Sirens, Chunk! No, Captain Chunk, and Tonight Alive).

[4thedarkangel]

why the hell r the saturdays in the suggestions?!?!?!?

[lookitsthescenekid]

1:24 why is he driving a right hand drive van

[CFL182]

@lookitsthescenekid Maybe a UK import vehicle or something

[jrack13]

check out my misfits cover!

[Coastergeekperson04]

Walter O'Malley made 39 accounts and disliked this video... if you're not a Dodgers or Giants fan, you would not get it at all.

[petejones270]

L.A. Dodgers

[fredsolo]

really enjoyed this song... but I enjoyed the awkwardness at 2:57 even more.

[TheAlbinoskunk]

now this is PROPER pop-punk, which doesn't need instantly catchy choruses and attractive band members to be good. brilliant

[MrHuntForGame]

@TheAlbinoskunk I'd say this song does have a catchy chorus. Which I like, personally. What I hate in pop punk is random shitty breakdowns, crappy screaming and fans who only watch videos for the lead singers hair or eye brows or something unimportant.

[TheAlbinoskunk]

@MrHuntForGame i completely agree with you. when i said catchy chorus i meant that most "pop-punk" songs only have a catchy chorus and as you said, fans who only like the band because the singer is "sooo effing hot!!!!!1"

[pogoavalanche]

All the people hating on this band have obviously never seen them live.

[GamerAnalysis]

YES!!!

[guilleg4]

they opened for paramore?!?!? WTF?!? i dont want to live in this planet anymore

[craaazyfunnychic]

they open for paramore... :) i saw them

[friedchickenonastick]

@craaazyfunnychic paramore should open for them. :))

[Navineous1]

@friedchickenonastick Hah, you're funny, but no. They should open for Paramore. End of discussion.

[TheSpaceManDan]

@craaazyfunnychic no way man, they opened for paramore, paramore should open for them... what is this world we are living it hahah

[shotgunkaity]

vinnie boarded a train to babylon/bellmore/wantaugh or any other station after merrick to film this video

[Iliveinabox666]

This song is so amazing live.

[Mariooo57]

Damn Vinnie looks so young, he's already 32 though...

[itchmynipple]

im fairly new to IATA i guess. this was the first song i heard from these guys awhile ago when they were opening for bayside and another time for envy on the coast, had to of been atleast 2 years ago or maybe more. anyways, good energy live, fun shows, and they sound great live, or else i wouldnt of downloaded all their stuff. ive seen vinnie acoustic as well and hes pretty good. kudos to another long island band thats got the right idea and aims for being a real band

[itchmynipple]

@itchmynipple, i mean new york, not longisland. woopz

[mobius212]

@BlackHowl1

Yes, because this song is literally about wondering why the Dodgers moved to LA.

[BlackHowl1]

@mobius212 REALLY?? NO WAAAAAAY!!! That's like, totally what I thought it was! I've got egg all over my face huh??

[BlackHowl1]

The Dodgers moved out to L.A in 1957 because the N.Y local authority wouldn't give Walter O'Malley any land to build a replacement stadium for Ebbets Field. Vinnie should have used Wikipedia instead of writing this guff song.

Movielife > hot dog turds > I Am The Avalanche

[MisfitZombie777]

@fakesharpie Ah! My bad love <333 I think i saw it from a reply and it was the name that was high lighted,I apologize for that <3

[nialleveritt]

I met Vinnie in 2005 at a Bristol (UK) show on the Drive-Thru tour. Really genuine bloke. Both albums are awesome.

[nialleveritt]

These guys fuckin own it. Raw, shit hot badassery. Done.

[amurd3r]

AVALANCHE UNITED IS AMAZING

[jamesman74]

Long Beach! 0:32 hometown whats good

[MisfitZombie777]

@fakesharpie I spent the longest time trying to understand what the fuck you were trying to say. Do you think before you write? Fine dont like the song,you dont have to,but if you're going to insult a song and the artist,can you at least try to make sense when you try to defend yourself? Because there is no way in hell that even your brain functioned what the hell you were trying to say.

[fakesharpie]

@MisfitZombie777 i suppose this was an error on your part...because i had nothing but good things to say about this, howeve the douche after me insulted the song. I love IATA, long time fan. stoked on all their new stuff.

[BOAGMUS]

an intro is missing for me

[lambovsatan225]

They became the L.A. Dodgers. =)

[fakesharpie]

this is one of the best videos i have seen in years. i am so glad they are finally back with new music, though i've always loved this song!!!

[Alokinveili]

what a dumb song...the words suck like no other!

[fakesharpie]

@Alokinveili why? because he's singing about his life? meet Vinnie, talk to him, and tell me if you still think this song and the lyrics suck. he is an amazing dude.

[Alokinveili]

@fakesharpie I don`t like to meet Vinnie, and I don`t give a shit about his story...can once in my life live a comment with my own opinion and no one corresponding in this way...you just don`t get it! It`s about the music, its I like it or I don`t like it...you can masturbate on this song as long as I care...but for me its fucking dumb!! Have a good one man...and use your brain next time...its only my opinion!

[INEVERFAILable]

@Alokinveili lol go fuck urself

[imacomputer80085]

I'm sorry but this is awful. Like an angrier more out of breath Say Anything

[derekthedingo]

herppppp this is so shitty. he should be singing "whatever happened to all the mainstream musiccc" "whatever happened to the music industryyyyyy" because that is what i think when i hear this bullshit. go ahead and attack me with comments but this is sooo bad and generic. i cried a little. i wont lie.

[bradcranwell]

@derekthedingo It isnt mainstream music tho... many bands signed to indie labels are able to use VEVO now, it is like the myspace of YouTube. This is just fun modern punk rock, people who like this kind of music will go out and enjoy themselves when they hear it. Granted, if I were an RA at a major label I wouldn't ever consider signing IATA, but for an indie pop-punk band they are making quality music.

[TheMrTuck]

just listened to this for the first time, looks like a pretty good band. why dont decent bands get on the telly :l

and i agree, good voice

[Bethebestpurdon]

Glass Jars! So much classier that Red cups! Just Saying! ;P

[Ackscar]

Good song, great voice. It just just bugs me that this video is crafted like a hip hop video because its focusing only on the singer

[KadaveRRoT]

@Ackscar no it isnt. did u see the video

[TheAwesomeKiller]

good song, just dont like this dudes voice

[879SCSP]

i would have been so much better if it was slower with maybe a piano this is to rough for the message the song is trying to convey.

[11xXDANIXx11]

Who the fuck are these guys and why haven't I heard of them before?

[stevster250]

this seems cool

[XOXOSavanna]

this song deserves to be added to my mp3 player:D :3

[SirJDD]

Worst song ever. Epic facepalm.

[bradcranwell]

Nice to see IATA with a new record after 6 years... #donttakesolongnexttime

[elchupacabrajyo]

...this is what happens when music becomes edgy for the sake of being edgy. Goddamnit.

[dman51590]

f*ck lift



[purpledino167]

Let's Go Avalanche!! Haha have no idea who this band is, but the Avalanche is my hockey team, so i support this band!! :D

[holly23ify]

METALZOOJEWELRY,COM

DEAD MEAT SKULL RINGS VOODOO DOLLS.

[Pinaki9536]

Do any of you ignorant dumbasses know that the lead singer used to front one of the best pop punk bands of the late 90's/ early 2000's, the Movielife? Learn your history and show respect were it's due. That being said, great song.

[MrJesusHKrist]

@Pinaki9536 Now this guy has the honor of telling people he's been the Singer for 2 Shitty Bands...

[Pinaki9536]

@MrJesusHKrist -Well you obviously don't listen to hardcore or punk, and I'll agree he's not a good singer but not many people in that scene are good singers. It's your opinion though and I respect that, I understand why people wouldn't like them.

[MrJesusHKrist]

@Pinaki9536 I love punk music and hardcore just only listen to bands that are good

[priceyboy]

@Pinaki9536 wasnt they on drive thru then i miss those days of drive thru records IAMTA were on drive thru also

[Pinaki9536]

@priceyboy -Yup they were

[FizzDrop44]

@Pinaki9536 Agreed. One of my favorite front men of all time.

[Pinaki9536]

@FizzDrop44 -Yup. He has a certain charisma about him that sets him apart.

[TheOkkiEpisodes]

@Pinaki9536 i didnt know that, im gonna check that band out right now!

[negatyve]

@Pinaki9536 Is it hard to type with his dick in your mouth?

[AwesomeMattatatat]

Supes hope that this band plays at X-Fest 2012!

[T0YTAC0]

I def enjoyed this song.

[abelsbravo]

love this band

[ponyta2]

IATA got heart yo

[feonixis]

Hmm, not too bad, but not sure if I'd listen to any more of their stuff. The music isn't bad. The lyrics aren't bad. The vocals aren't horrendous. But... They don't fit together well enough to make a particularly good song in my opinion. But to each their own!

[LickingButter]

i usually don't click on the videos that vevo promotes on the side but im glad i clicked this one :D

[NoPainNoGain2393]

I love the music video! I wish I could've seen them and Bayside on the Bayside/Saves The Day tour, would've been amazing!

[Coastergeekperson04]

Walter O'Malley made 13 accounts and disliked this video. Okay that was a really bad joke. You win.

[BassIsAwesome16]

Idk why ppl are hating cuz I just listened to this and fell in love. It's like a mix of punk and indie (something that I have really been waiting for)

[afterustheflood]

wack as fuck...

[ImTheDarkcyde]

Why bother singing when you can just yell? Ug.

[jameslinkiewicz]

This song is too sick. I love it.

[kloturus]

All of you who are jsut hatin' should stfu....this song is just awsome...so shut up and listen!!

[youreconfused]

horrible. just horrible. and no this band doesn't deserve to be recognized anymore than they already have. lead vocals are pathetic and the sound is just junk.

[xgilbearto]

@youreconfused i want whatever you're smoking, because these dudes are some of the most genuine guys i have ever had to chance to see live, and meet.

[Goodguy211]

They sound a bit like Hadouken.

And I like Hadouken.

[77norcross]

My birthday in 5 days :D

[Dinopirate]

This song is stupid.

[CherryCokeNixon]

If you don't get this song you're probably too used to catchy radio pop. Nothing wrong with radio pop but this song basically a diary entry with music...it wasn't written to wind up on Glee or American Idol.

[BoshBargnani]

@CherryCokeNixon fucking hipsters

[CherryCokeNixon]

@BoshBargnani believe me, I ain't no hipster......I'm surrounded by these pain in the asses (I live in the Bay Area)....saying this song isn't catchy radio pop doesn't make me a hipster.

[culturphile]

@CherryCokeNixon

This IS CATCHY POP music, it's pseudo wannabee punk. That having been said it's what the standard seems to be nowadays, song is kinda catchy so I am ignoring the music and focusing on the lyrics... Lyrics.

I love the part were he says "...and how our relatives change their names just to seem more American"... so true.

[CherryCokeNixon]

@culturphile The very fact that the songwriter makes observations such as relatives changing their names just to seem more American completely obliterates the "CATCHY POPness" of this song. Believe me, you won't hear this on the radio anytime soon. Not that there is anything wrong with LMFAO or Drake

[XslavetotheneedleX]

@CherryCokeNixon good song but would make one o heck of a repetitive diary entry lol



[MrJesusHKrist]

@CherryCokeNixon This is the Definition of Bad Catchy Radio Pop. A diary entry in a loser pop front mans diary. Let it be Made clear I didn't die for these guys sins.

[CherryCokeNixon]

@MrJesusHKrist Is it? Well when you hear it on the radio every hour let me know.

[MrJesusHKrist]

@CherryCokeNixon That day will never come fortunately this band is too terrible for the radio go listen to Inflames, Lamb of God just because you're 16 and love these guys don't make them non pop...Only pop bands have Hey Hey Hey Hey shouted out in the middle of their songs by a bunch of people.

[Imnotsadanymore99]

@MrJesusHKrist hahaha you are an idiot with a typical "metal guys attitude" I listened to those bands when i was 15 and I'm 21 now... what a joke stop hating on music that you dont even listen to and just being ignorant, go listen to your boring repetative metal.

[MrJesusHKrist]

@Imnotsadanymore99 Exactly you're 21 and don't know shit. I'm 2011 you know nothing about music especially if you like this.Go listen to Tool then eat a bag of dicks

[Imnotsadanymore99]

@MrJesusHKrist uhh okay, im in a band you probably love the style of music, but i wont reveal it, jjust ignorant statements you just said 16 year olds listen to this, too bad i went through the phase of music that you did when I was that age, its okay though, and no need to get all worked up and insulting me its okay buddy =p

[MrJesusHKrist]

@Imnotsadanymore99 See you had time to like a Drake Video in between our chat again stripping you of the ability to comment on anything music related

[Aulmeyda]

@MrJesusHKrist I'm pretty sure the phrase you're lookin' for is, "go suck a bag of dicks".

[MrJesusHKrist]

@Aulmeyda Nope exactly what I said is what I meant. Stole it from Josh Homme...Josh Homme: this guy is a total cocksmoker, i come here for 5 years and hes throwin shit at me, now its not me and you that know that you are a fuckin asshole, its everybody. so when you see mr cocksmoker here, tell him eat a bag of dicks.

[Aulmeyda]

@MrJesusHKrist Oh, well, I had this in mind.

/watch?v=CzbURUrgQao

[MrJesusHKrist]

@Aulmeyda Awesome I love Louis CK good call forgot about that Man thanks for reminding me. You get a Gold Star, wait a tick didn't Hitler give the Jews Gold Stars instead I give you this /watch?v=xL9xCWphV8s

[tumult1138]

I kept waiting for the song to get better....My mistake.

[MrTROYisLegend]

Why are people hating on them??? These guys deserve a lot more recognition than they've gotten..

[NoPainNoGain2393]

@MrTROYisLegend agreed!! this is awesome Punk Rock right here! they're better than so many popular groups, artists, and bands! Well I say fuck the "general consensus!" Listen to music because it kicks ass, not because it's what's being played on the radio, or because it's what your dumb friends are listening to! I Am The Avalanche = up & coming

[MrTROYisLegend]

@NoPainNoGain2393 Yea I've loved these guys ever since I first heard them...and that was only like maybe a year or two ago....and I was always like Why the hell are these guys not big...Vinny? the singer? I think thats his name...Has a dope ass voice and the lyrics i've thought have always been good and they sound amazing live...I wish people just would be happy these guys are still making amazing music for not being too popular...although I hope they do get bigger!

[NoPainNoGain2393]

@MrTROYisLegend I first found them cus Vinny did guest vocals on Bayside's song the Walking Wounded, and Bayside's my favorite band & when I first checked I Am The Avalanche out, I was skeptical, then I listened to the bonus track Conan O'Brien & fell in love with them, my favorite song by them has to be The Gravedigger's Argument, this one's sick too! We needa spread the word about these guys, they do need more fans! They're too awesome to be this unpopular, Vinny's voice is fits the genre well

[MrTROYisLegend]

@NoPainNoGain2393 Baysides another good band that seems a little under appreciated...I could be wrong but, yea Walking Wounded was a freakin awesome album and the song that Vinnys on is pry one of my favorite of the album.

[NoPainNoGain2393]

@MrTROYisLegend yea Bayside doesn't really have as many fans as they should, but that's why people deemed Bayside a "cult" cus there's not too many followers, but the people who do listen and love them are so passionate about it. they're amazing, they're getting bigger and bigger with every album they put out though, hopefully I can turn on the radio and here I Am The Avalanche and Bayside some day, but at the same time not have to worry about either of them going mainstream

[Dai3eb]

@MrTROYisLegend This is a terrible band. He can't sing and the lyrics are horrendous.

[Coastergeekperson04]

@Dai3eb Good music does not need good singing. All it needs is to give you an eargasm.

[MrTROYisLegend]

@Dai3eb Yes because im sure Lil Wayne and "He who shall not be named" Have better and more meaning full lyrics. Of course....I completely understand you now with your statement, that has so much evidence to support such a claim that their lyrics and musical talents are inferior to all others. Thanks...

[AwesomeMattatatat]

Cause im sure you can sing better then this guy

[helmuth8806]

@MrTROYisLegend I DON'T GET IT!?! WHY?! These guy's are so good...Maybe they're Red Sox Fans or something? I'm from Boston, a hardcore Red Sox Fan and I STILL love these guys and this song!!!....People....

[JohnnyRoq765]

@zimmyb123 yup. Youre retarded. And probably 8.

[zimmyb123]

How about no

[JohnnyRoq765]

This song is terrible and the lyrics are absolutely retarded. Are you kidding me?

[TheGodOfMusic88]

@JohnnyRoq765 Lyrics are absoloutely retarded. I agree here. I like the sound though, Catchy.

[nicksmycoastie]

Vinnie Caruana is just beautiful.

[BeverlyDTV]

I'm really digging this song! Adding to my list...

[nikelover33]

[gmurdak]

[NickFury107]

This video is awesome and this band deserves more credit. People should be rocking IATA instead of the nonsense out there in the current "scene." Good job guys!
