@breakingthisdown from what i read and understand, sixteen represents the minute 16 that ends the 15 minutes of fame of the people who really shouldnt have those 15 minutes at all. for example Christian Bands who aren't as Christian as they should be or suggestive lyrics for bands who call themselves so
@Calbenmike , Ryan is not an example of mediocre vocals at all. I was listening to some Metal on sattelite radio today and some of those vocals just can't compare to Ryan, he's one of a kind.
this sounds kinda random, but wouldn't it be cool to just hang with demon hunter and living sacrifice for a day? im thinking ultimate frisbee would be sick!
I'm finding that the live performance verson sounds even better than the album version, and the album version sounded awesome to start with. The vocalist sounds great.
i swear ryan really blows my mind...he can scream like a rabid animal, but then on the flipside he's got such a great singing voice...hope these dudes are around for many years to come
i won free tickets to see them when they come to vegas in may with As i Lay dying, i was gonna buy the tickets anyway, but now i will have some cash to buy some merch, im so fucking excited to see them
its the repeat of Sixteen and the song is on about ppl not being able to survive more than the classic "15 minutes of fame" thus giving the name sixteen to represent tht extra minute than cnt be handled
@Demiyqxzurge yeah they always are that good live...seen them three times live and it was a ballin show every time...i saw them on the stronger than hell tour....great stuff
@pntballfreek How much did it cost to go see them and where did you get the tickets; my friend and i want to go see them and they are coming to our town.
@OneGameAlways umm....i wanna say it was like 15 bucks a head, and i bought the tickets online, but they were selling tickets at the door too, i just didn't feel like dealing with massive lines
Don't know about you guys, but I think Patrick Judge's background vocals are frikkin awesome...This is one of my favorite live songs by DH because you have Ryan leading, Bruce backing with screams and Patrick backing with harmonization. It's METALLICALLY and BRUTALLY BEAUTIFUL!!! :D
And I will come near to you to judgment; and I will be a swift witness against the sorcerers, and against the adulterers, and against false swearers, and against those that oppress the hireling in [his] wages, the widow, and the fatherless, and that turn aside the stranger [from his right], and fear not me, saith the Lord of hosts.
They can and will fail, and that is to be expected. However, there is a level of failure, as a Christian, as a human, without remorse or repentance that begs to be questioned.
Sixteen is in regard to the minute. Some people are fortunate enough to have fifteen minutes of fame. For these Christians that I speak of, living Godless, perverse lives, I beg for minute 16. I beg for the end of their undeserved fame, for the end of spiritual fraudulence, and the end of their time in this scene.
I put the word Christian in quotes, because unfortunately, many of the things that I have witnessed lead me to believe that there are a lot of people involved in Christian music that should not be adopting the term Christian at all.
For many of us in bands, this is a common tale. For others, it may be news. And dont get me wrong here- Im not saying that since these people are Christians, they cannot fail.
yea ryan clark does the clean vocals. always has. some of the live stuff they change up a bit tho, so he doesnt strain his voice as much. but ive always been in awe that its the same guy.
In this song, yes. But at the beginning of the Power of God on the album, that is the deepest and most powerful growl i have heard. They are both great
honestly they both have thir pros and cons, ryan has melody, but isnt able to do all screaming, bruce has the voice that can last a LONG time, so i think its all oppinion, but if i had to choose, i would go with ryan 9my girlfriend is in love with bruce lol)
This show was last summer so that doesnt mean much....... I would know, I was there :D was between Jon and Ethan and about 5 people back... I dropkicked some dude when the pit picked up XD it was awesome... but yeah, it was a year ago so Bruce coulda left by now......
Wow i can't belive people claim they sound like slipknot. personally i don't think so at ALL!!! They are so touching. Even if you are not a chirstian you still can't deny D.H is not a good band because they are awesome!!! love you guys keep the faith even through the hard times!
I know I wasnt involved in the original question and all, but I, as a metal loving atheist, like demon hunter as well (as i lay dying too) I personally am an atheist because I believe the bible no more than I believe mother goose stories. It was all written by a person, and are all stories that no one can show any proof of.
Actually, before you get into the question of whether the stories are true or not, there is a lot of people that we know existed. Like Solomon. But there's evidence of the stories, too. Like blackened rocks on Mount Sianai and remains of a large boat on top of a mountain. And about a third of the Bible is letters, not necessarily stories. I'm not trying to start a long, annoying YouTube discussion, but understand that, whether or not the Bible is fake, the authors did leave evidence.
Even if you don't believe in Jesus, there is a lot of evidence to show that the bible has accurate accounts that are talked about elsewhere. There is also a lot of evidence that proves the Jesus truly did live and die on the cross. There is no arguing that. Glad you like Demon Hunter they are a great band.
Oh... dang it, I thought an atheist was using his brain there for a second. Well, not *dang it* for you being a Christian, but... you know what I mean.
Remember that you're purpose as a Christian is to show Christ's love to everyone. We are no better than anyone else, for we are all born into sin. Often people think that Christian's think of themselves better than they are, but if they could only see that this isn't what the Bible teaches. You have been saved by His grace because salvation by works doesn't work, and you're purpose here is to show the way to salvation, and to show the freedom found in Christ. Talking like that isn't the best way
What I'm saying is don't say things like; "Look an athiest using his brain!" in a sarcastic manner. That isn't really fair, and it's certainly not showing the love of Christ. Not trying to give you a hard time, but I hope that makes sense. Keep the faith.
I'm an atheist, I've got no issue at all with people with religious beliefs but if you're coming out with lines that more or less state that atheists lack intelligence, you're giving believers a bad name.
Pretty pathetic tbh.
I love Demon Hunter, I can identify with some of the lyrics despite not being religious, and I can understand why every single video concerning them on YouTube is filled with discussion of religion.
Well, I know this is generalizing, but most of the atheists that I meet either have no reason that they are atheists, have completely senseless arguments, or just accept everything they hear. I apologize for what I said, but that's often how it comes across.
I don't and can't speak for other people, I can only speak for myself. I feel and see no reason to have any religious beliefs, that does not mean for a second that people shouldn't have them. A lot of my friends do, and obviously I also listen to bands who are openly religious, such as Demon Hunter.
I am comfortable being an atheist, I don't feel any worse off. I'm not saying I wouldn't ever subscribe to any religious views in the future, just that right now I "don't believe" and am fine with that. I'm not saying that the events surrounding Christianity aren't true per se, and I very much respect the religion as a whole because of the lessons it teaches and the moral guidelines it encourages. People aren't bad for not believing what you do, nor do they have to tell you why.
I would argue that it's important to NOT be open minded to other people's beliefs in how it changes what you believe. Someone shouldn't be able to sway your beliefs upon one conversation. It's a weak and spineless generation that cannot stand up for what it believes. However it is important to listen, understand and respect other people's beliefs as their own so as to have good and healthy debates.
Demon Hunter is one of the best if not the best Christian metal band there is. and one of the few bands out there in the metal genre that sounds almost like you are listening to their album. God bless Demon Hunter and all the other bands out there spreading the good word of Christ .
Minute 16 after your fifteen minutes of fame. Its a question to the Christian music community. Like will you still live for Christ when you're no longer in the limelight?
The Six six six thing is just a lead-in to the first time he says sixteen. Sounds cool tho.
The beginning of this song, fricken cool man!! they are such a awesome band. wish i could see them live in person. never in minnesota. i will someday!!
it's speaking to someone who has just had their "fifteen minutes of fame" and is saying that their time in the limelight is just about done and over with. (at least, that's what DH's myspace page says.)
It's directed at bands that jump on the "Christian band' bandwagon to achieve fame, but don't follow what they preach. And for these hypocrites, he asks for minute sixteen, for them to fade out of the spotlight, as they are more destructive than constructive.
wow... I'd actually never heard this song before now. I now have a brand new respect for Demon Hunter, not to mention Living Sacrifice as well. These guys are amazing, and everyone should listen to them, whether they're "Christian" or not.
Yes, but if he were asking you that, he'd ask how you know that. *I'm on your side here, you just need to know that most people have reasons for being atheists*
This is one of my favorite songs by Demon Hunter.

However it is important to listen, understand and respect other people's beliefs as their own so as to have good and healthy debates.

Demon Hunter is one of the best if not the best Christian metal band there is. and one of the few bands out there in the metal genre that sounds almost like you are listening to their album. God bless Demon Hunter and all the other bands out there spreading the good word of Christ .

Six, Six, Sixteen, Oh holy day
Your time has come and passed
The rapture weve been waiting for
Has come to us at last
Sixteen for every fake
Sixteen to every whore - What is that about, I can't get it???
and what's with this 666 in the beginning?
please explain...
tobe333 3 years ago
it refers to revalation 16, that talks about the wrath of god i'm pretty sure.

Minute 16 after your fifteen minutes of fame. Its a question to the Christian music community. Like will you still live for Christ when you're no longer in the limelight?
The Six six six thing is just a lead-in to the first time he says sixteen. Sounds cool tho.

The long-haired guy? He's their guitar tech. Their regular guitarist had to leave the tour early to tour with Relient k.

it's speaking to someone who has just had their "fifteen minutes of fame" and is saying that their time in the limelight is just about done and over with. (at least, that's what DH's myspace page says.)
ChesterShinoda 3 years ago
It's directed at bands that jump on the "Christian band' bandwagon to achieve fame, but don't follow what they preach. And for these hypocrites, he asks for minute sixteen, for them to fade out of the spotlight, as they are more destructive than constructive.

wow... I'd actually never heard this song before now. I now have a brand new respect for Demon Hunter, not to mention Living Sacrifice as well. These guys are amazing, and everyone should listen to them, whether they're "Christian" or not.
ChesterShinoda 3 years ago
Agreed. I'm an atheist and I love Demon Hunter.
melanchronic 3 years ago
why are you an atheist?
ttimothyp16 2 years ago
That'd be like asking you why you're a Christian. You're answers would probably be similar.
LNOL 2 years ago 2
except i would say that God is my savior and Jesus died on the cross for our sins and he probably wouldn't say that
ttimothyp16 2 years ago
Yes, but if he were asking you that, he'd ask how you know that. *I'm on your side here, you just need to know that most people have reasons for being atheists*
