MxPx - Shut It Down [new video]

[FreshNapp]

This song was cool until I listened to the lyrics. They're being way too serious about being anti technology. I wish the lyrics were more badass for the song haha. Still a cool song though. Computers are becoming our lives though. It's just how it's happening.

[DAYTIME504]

They make a music video saying to shut off cell phones,tvs,and computers which is being viewed on cell phones,tvs,and computers lol ironic

awesome song \m/

[thierry741]

[Headfirst4Romance]

Awesome Shit ^.^

Sounds Realy Punk

[chauntetherocker]

Base riffs were pretty ridiculous. loved it. Not a bad message for a Christian band. The media definitely isn't helping the Christians spread there word of god.

[skinnyredjeans]

i still dont really see how they are christian, but i love them all the same.

[spec2662]

I almost gave up on this band but i really enjoy this song..a lot

[striker1d8m2a]

There are good punk rock bands like sum41, blink182, Tara Perdida (Portuguese), NOFX, pennywise, Rancid.. These are some examples cryoreh

[Tourniquet75]

HES HOT

[patpatpat14]

love this song

[MXPX619]

ilove this group so much that my username is MXPX

[raindropsdrip]

Well, God does make a little more sense. If the "Big Bang" theory is what you believe than please explain where the meteors came from. Your point about before you were born cannot be specifically to those who believe in God. Everyone had to come from somewhere, so that is a mute point. I can say that living my life for God is possible the hardest thing i will ever do, so i think about it all the time; i'm educated and go with my gut, i'm not dumb. God Bless

[MicheasTheMighty]

Chaos Theory. It is generally overlooked that cosmologists never finger the Big Bang as a primary starting-point, before which was Nothing. Matter, because of energy, since as far back as we can know, is always in motion. Before the Big Bang there was probably matter incarnated in way in which we couldn't possible conceive of. We simply don't know. We aren't embarrassed to say this. Our limit of understanding, however, is a strength not a weakness. We haven't slammed the door in the face of ...

[iloveasiangirls]

actually they are compatible. i mean, what do you think caused the big bang? dont you think God would be capable of doing something like that? personally i have a very difficult time believing that he just snapped his fingers and everything appeared. i mean, i believe he did it, but i just dont believe he did it THAT way.

[MXPX619]

if you have the cd go to track seven and listen intently or type in Angels/MXPX on youtube then write me back

[atahero2894]

i love the bass line

[atahero2894]

hey how come i never have seen this band on TV

[thesockpuppetmastero]

if u have dish on channel 264 ktv plays this alot at night on this show called tvu...

there's alot of mxpx songs on there

[obagosh]

<3 the gospel rock

[tonelive81]

I first saw this on Gospel Music Channel and fell in love with it. Switchfoot is my fav...but i can and will grow to love MXPX. The lead screamer/singer is so hot...he has a nice lil body. then again most guys in Christian rock bands do,,,

[chanel954]

omg i love them this song rocks

[Fudgeyer]

Great song and theres a great meaning 2 it. Tht drummer is freakin amazin and so is da guitarist n bassist but i can hardly see wat makes them so christian

[iloveasiangirls]

maybe its because they ARE christian... :0

[Ardila21]

so doesnt make them christian rock. its more punk than christian.

[iloveasiangirls]

no, its punk with christian messages. read between the lines.

[woogiepooh1995]

yeah i guess they should stop it

[beliefovermisery]

i hate this video.

plays to much on gospel music channel.

but, to all you people who like it,

cool!

im not being mean.

just saying.

[saranwrapscreamo]

yeah, they do play it alot, on rock block. but not as much as Never Let Me Go by ff5

lol

i still like this video tho

xD

[jesusfreak998]

i agree they do play this song to much on the gmc. i still like the song thoug.

[ihatescreamobands]

this has some sweet bass!

[NJtriple6]

lol niceshot. that really was an awesome album. n who gives a shit if they're "christian" or not... all that matters is that they make good fucken music. i'm christian, but that doesn't mean i have to point out EVERY band thats christian.

[adamtrib]

here here!

[JustCallMeFox]

LMFAO@niceshot's comment

fuckign love that album

[xINiceShotIx]

Everyone that is a serious cristian here should go look up an album named The Mark, Tom, and Travis Show by Blink 182. It will make you see the light. I DID

[Jagrobby182]

why should we look that up? its just a live album.

[tommorowsday]

i like the new style...keep it up!

[Skilletfan4life]

dude im not damning my life or anyone elses i still live my life to the fullest but there are always limitations. there is always going to be somthing to hold you back in certan times in your life that you can do nothing about. and because of that the anticipation for heaven and a new holy being is that much greater

[punkrockermike44]

MxPx is the Best!!!!

[jrdmjordan]

grow up.

[joxmacd]

race you to who dies first

[rainingloveofchrist]

But they have songs like chick magnet and everything sucks that doesn't sonud like christian songs , but shut it down is an awesome christian song!!!

[adamtrib]

they have admitted thet their band is no longer a christian band. they still feel it in their hearts or somethin, but they're just not focusing the band on god anymore.

[theyakuza96]

when did they admitt this?

[Skilletfan4life]

well everything does suck untill we get to heaven i mean think about it if God made life a great thing and problem free who would want to go to heaven and live with God?

[MicheasTheMighty]

An unobserved, unexamined heaven? You honestly can feel it is worthwhile to look forward to such a place and damn your current existence? Granted, life is not problem-free. How does that negate its value? Pining for heaven is tantamount to pining for DEATH. That is EVIL. This is the only life you'll ever get. Why waste it damning it for being imperfect? Nothing in reality is perfect. Perfection is an abstraction that only exists theoretically.

[Ardila21]

God isnt real. its a fairy tale. So if you go to heaven after you die. then wut happens before ur born. oh and if god is a more logical theory than evolution then this world is getting dumber by the ages.

[iloveasiangirls]

on the surface, you make some good points. bot its logically impossible to prove that something doesnt exist. and besides, evolution and creationism are perfectly compatible theories. i believe in both.

[MXPX619]

i say go to wikipedia and type in MXPX and you will find that they are a christian punk rock band, and read the whole article on them.

[raindropsdrip]

a different look at what Skillet was saying: I am overjoyed at the thought of Heaven. But i believe i was put on this earth for a reason, and i will be on this earth untill i carry out my purpose(s) So, i live life to the fullest, and when times get hard, i can remember that it'll be okay. Heaven = Hope. As christians, we should dance all through life; it truly is wonderful.

[MicheasTheMighty]

... new discoveries. Christians are fond of the First Cause or Prime Mover argument. "Abracadabra!" "Poof!" A "god" exempt from explanation and rational inquiry made Everything because it grew bored of being complete and perfect in and of itself. The Scientific Method would find such a postulation to be unsatisfactory. To your first point, I see what you're saying about heaven accepting your premise of Holy Scripture and Christian theology. Independent from that premise, though, it is useless.

[iloveasiangirls]

actually they arent expempt from rational thought, its just that no one wants to look for a way to explain it. personally i dont believe anything without finding a way to explain it.

[raindropsdrip]

i understand what mean using science and facts. From my personal experiences, i find God the greatest power. And as christians, we have thought about your idea of "poof." Science doesn't have to be seperate from spirituality; I believe that whatevr happened, like you said we don't really know, that a higher power was in control of it. Too many things are perfect on this world to say it happened by chance. The inperfections such as war, crime, pollution, etc. are caused by people with free will..

[eyesofemerald50]

I totaly aggree with you. i used to wonder how i could link science to my religious beliefs, but you just explained it brilliantly.

Also Perfection is also a point of veiw: we can see something as perfect but it could be veiwed by someone else as imperfect. Or at least that is my understanding.

Besides, imperfections just highlight the perfection of something else. So although wars etc are bad they make us see the good in life. Because with war, there would be no concept of peace. See?

:)

[Abcrimbech]

Looks like someone has read the book Angels and Demons by Dan Brown, and don't even say thats not where you got it from

[raindropsdrip]

.. but thats a different topic. Things that can be found perfect in science are examples. Our minds, our abilities to have conversations like this exeeds my understanding. And i'm okay with that because i give it to God. And your okay with it because you give it to science. The only difference between our beliefes is that i see something one step higher than science, not just a coincedence of perfect "science"

[skinnyredjeans]

man i hear you. everyone has a faith, even if you only have faith in science.

[PigHunter4]

AMEN!!!

[friggingbomb88]

mike is supposed to play his bass lol

[obedG777]

[taylorthecoolguy]

i love that bassline in 00:15 halla awsome

[joemannoman]

[ScubaX29]

I really never did pay attention to any of their stuff until I heard that benji madden from Good Charlotte was going to be on one of thier songs and I bought the cd. Man they are awsome

[newguy64]

this is one of the only 2 MxPx songs I actually like (the other is Secrect Weapon)- but theat's just because of the vocals on the other songs...

[JPmoney72x]

dude! 0:08!!!!!!!!!!!! OMF*****GOD~

[g0thman]

What about it?

[noahsuperstar]

i love how mike starts hardcore dancin by himself amd he dosent even care lol. i love this band

[Jakeleoquade]

[Alarm4321]

they should've destroyed a fucking plasma to really make a point

[murexa1]

aww lucky! they get to destroy TVs and stuff!

[woogiepooh1995]

yeah thats so awsome i love smashing things exspecially borken guitar they sound better jj

[GoalsforKids]

Things have never been the same since Slowly Going the Way of the Buffalo. Good to see there still making an impact as when I first saw them in '95

[theradpotato]

for sure. everything after Buffalo has totally lost appeal to me. i guess i first saw them in 1999 or 2000.

oh well, i'm into metal now!!!

[BRudy87]

do they have a new guitar player? is Mike straight up on vocals now?! what the hell is goin on?!

[BRudy87]

dont answer this... I couldnt see it well

[Gerardsoulmate1035]

No, he still plays bass but they didn't show it in the video.

[Eleyond]

I gonna see this guys this summer!!! They are coming to The Netherlands! woooooot!!!

[spacetoast99]

is that the same singer from the other videos i cant tell if he's just taking the hoodie off or if its another person!!!!

[laslos3]

yup....it's all Mike...whichcx I may say is a pretty cool guy in person!

[kylosius]

gotta love the reference to the clash with the first line. glad to see mxpx is finally rocking like they used to. this has helped me erase before everything after from my mind.

[mikets1]

I love this song and video. I had never really listened to MXPX all too much, but I can't get enough of this song.

[2Rean2]

I'm atheist and i don't give a fuck wether their christian or not. Its either u like them or not. The fact of them being christian should have nothing to do with it

[ZeroJanitor]

I have to agree with this statement. Mainly because it's the only one that really makes any sense.

[Ardila21]

yesssss, thank u.

[funfun06]

they remember me like one peace x) the moving from them ^^

[Protoman5801]

MxPx Rawks!

[morrisking]

this is main theme song for nfl tour goood song!!!

[wertica]

WOOHOO seeing them live tomorrow. cant wait! this song is amazing and so is this video.

[woogiepooh1995]

ok just saying u dont have to say god in your songs to be christian band you have to talk about god and how to live life and stuff but not say god at all i listin to project 86 they never say god but they mention god in thier songs and how to live tho so there ive made my point it is now over=) i win u noobs all lose

[jdpi1]

that's incorrect the older stuff does talk about GOD!! get ur facts. straight

[DannyLFC186]

now i wish they went to northen ireland but i don't think they would i like that song

[samsoprano]

wtf??wat's there to fight about christians band or not?c'mon,watever it is,this band's cool.geez..u guys are so childish..huh...
