Protest the Hero - "Sequoia Throne" [Official Video]

[aaronconlin]

I hate to do this but.. I used to run down a hallway, then I took a bass arrow to the knee @ 1:13

[Kinkryder8]

2:01. i do this too, may explain my stupidity.

[creatorofdragon]

it's unfortunate that he had to scream NON- STOP through the entire song. I really wanted to hear what the guitars were doing, especially at the end. good band, but -10 points.

[xDSxREM1XxDSx]

@creatorofdragon Video's sound is unbalanced, listen to actual track

[101LiquidNitrogen]

how do they play like that wow

[kazaambass]

It takes a real man to make a Steinberger look cool.

[jdsol1]

It's weird watching this video now, they all have short hair in their new videos.

[HHMasterPuff]

I used to be a musician... then I took a bass arrow to the knee from Arif.

[MrPublic7enemy]

@HHMasterPuff i usually hate when people make arrow to the knee jokes...... but that was actually funny

[Falling2Grey29]

Man, they all look so different now. Except for Rody, he kinda looks the same.

[haffistef]

1:12 well someone took an arrow to the knee !

[MontageMan130]

@haffistef I will kill you!

[metalmongar]

Arif mirabdabalghi is such a killer bassist

[MrD10drift]

is this song about aliens?



[WEAKxxxPOWERLESS]

@MrD10drift no. it's about human's being their own self destruction. I'm pretty sure anyway.

[MiKeHendrycks]

@MrD10drift its about star trek, they are huge trekkies haha. so is tapestry from scurillous.

[urmomnos]

The arrow I took the knee was fired by that bassist, Arif Blarghablarghablargh.

[lliamq12]

please tell me arif does the bass arrow live..

[2MuchRhythm]

Luke Hoskin is a canadian angel

[jacky4945]

1:25 Badass bass tapping

[S3hnsuch7]

gay hero

[hydr0p0tamus]

if I had a dollar for every pixel in this video

I would have 1 dollar

[Nymfipapukaija]

@hydr0p0tamus yeah, needs better resolution asap

[zackyandhisguitar]

so arifs the one shooting everyone in the knee, it makes so much sense now

[gartland1989]

Amazing band. But the vocalist looks creepy as fuck in this video.

[aaronJORDON]

@gartland1989 Rody Walker looks awesome!

[MrPalkiaFTW]

what genre is this? it doesn't sound like any "Core" genre to me.

[luv2scream815]

@MrPalkiaFTW Progressive Metal

[MixonBro]

@MrPalkiaFTW PTH is often described as a progressive metal / metalcore / mathcore band.

[psykocreep]

Those are some badass vocals. Saw them live and the band is equally awesome.

[Dishstony]

All that really matters in this video is Arif shooting arrows whilst playing bass.

[JJJaakeeEe]

These guys are only bad live because its a miracles that they even managed to create these songs

[ImGoingToPissOnYOU]

@JJJaakeeEe and your only a fagbag because you managed to be a... fag.

[JJJaakeeEe]

@ImGoingToPissOnYOU  Hey, Fuck you.

[Joshness143]

i see them this wednesday :D

[StewieSwan]

Can't wait to open for them on friday :))

[Dishstony]

@StewieSwan No shit?

[mimcofied]

i get a tingle in my loins when the singer goes from sweet voice to demon voice

[ParallelGears]

The band of a 1000 facial hairs

[SaymonLovesTaeyeon]

For your info guys, They are all BADASSes

Big respect to my fave band of all time!

[jamo0007]

1:07 - the single most badass headbang I have ever seen

[Proud2BeAPirate]

@jamo0007 ;lolol

[FknmetalkiD]

ok i didnt like the vox ;/

[GrimRegrets]

This song is amazing, but why did they record the video with a calculator?

[JohnHorne1991]

240p?

[SeanIsViolence]

@JohnHorne1991 It was uploaded before youtube had higher quality available. Least thats my guess.

[Lustl]

This melodical vocal reminds me Stratovarius...

[thecza12]

this was recorded with a compass

[TheMixolydianman]

wow the lead guitarists hands must get so sore at gigs from the insane amounts of tapping and sweeping in these songs :L

[maxcourchesne]

Now that I listen to PTH, everything else sounds like shit.

Thanks PTH.

[MrLipohar]

@maxcourchesne This is EXACTLY how i feel



[TheSirBlakey]

WAIT A SECOND. Kidz Bop did Heretics and Killers? I MUST SEE THIS.

[snosock]

shut up about bad quality, tie video was uploaded 4 years ago....

[drumgroovy]

@snosock You mean 3.

[snosock]

@drumgroovy 3.5, I rounded up. :)

[MQuiding]

240p we meet again.

[jaemustang89]

he looks like fucking MIKE PATTON

[MetalHead1058]

Steinberger's are possibly the sickest guitars and basses out there

[blackknightkanos]

I can't handle the singer's hipster mustache...

[AnarchyAnt89]

We meet again, 240p.

[supniggaaaaaa]

WHY WOULD YOU UPLOAD A VIDEO THAT SOUNDS LIKE SHIT AS AN OFFICIAL VIDIEO...LOL YOU FAIL VAGRANTRECORDS

[Iliketacos091]

I don't think I've ever seen their lead guitarist play any lower than the 12th fret, unless he was chugging or something.

[basantillan]

I have seen pth live 3 times and out of those three time rody is super drunk but still manges to sing amazingly! 

[OlympicWannabe]

The bassist is so badass at 1:01 and 1:10. Well..he's kinda badass all the time

[mastarastafu]

@OlympicWannabe broooo 1:13

[ImThatGuy629]

@OlympicWannabe He puts the bass in badass.

[Dishstony]

@ImThatGuy629 And I put the STD in STUD. All I need is the U.

That is all.

[Reposiric]

Something about the slight change in rhythm at 1:45 always really gets me going. It's so subtle and tiny but it truly intensifies the mood. Such amazing music composition.

[Jm3hatR]

the bassist looks fucking badass

[xTheLongLostx]

1:12 Robin Hood.

[Jannek667]

WHY ARE THEY RUNNING THROUGH A FUCKING RANDOM SCHOOL

[somerandomguy911]

@Jannek667 HOW HIGH ARE YOU???

[Goinggonedead420]

@Jannek667 BECAUSE FUCK YOU! There Protest the hero, they do what the fuck the want.

[nightprowler93]

im suprised no ones ranting about the amazing vocals! their like art metal lol

[Imfromwhere]

damn that bassist is awesome camt wait to try that on the guitar!!

[XxTHEGHOSTxX95]

Justin bieber shit in his pants when he saw this 

[OrangeTanjerine]

The bassist is just loving life in this video, he's so cool!

[MuppetMan246]

Someone on another vid compared this band to a japanese band called Fact stating that they are similar. I'm not seeing the resemblance.

This band is fine. The singer has some good range with his voice (something like a good 80's metal band singer), but this band isn't for me. No im not hating on them cuz if I was id say something dumb like they're gay or shit like that. I just came to see for myself if there was a similarity since I really like Fact but I didn't find it.

[EA369]

@MuppetMan246 I knew there was maturity somewhere on youtube, I was starting to lose hope and then I read this.

[MuppetMan246]

@EA369 hahahaha! well glad to oblige.

[TrekaXxx]

@MuppetMan246 i get u, this band is epically good, or like me i know Burzum is epically good, but not for me

[MuppetMan246]

@TrekaXxx I can see them making a rock opera.

[Iliketacos091]

@MuppetMan246 All the dumbass trolls on youtube need maturity lessons from you, man. Congrats on actually acting your age (As opposed to all the 3 year olds who come here and think they're so witty with their chain messages and trollings)

[MuppetMan246]

@Iliketacos091 Trust me, those ppl have been taught lessons in decency, respect, and spelling. They just refuse to use what they've learned because they are assholes. Besides your giving them too much by calling them 3 yr olds. Atl least 3yrs are somewhat ignorant to what they do or say. These teens and 20 somethings give no respect and deserve none.

[gartland1989]

Eugh. The lead vocalist seems like he's miming a voice that isnt actually his.

[pukki34]

Utter crap quality. Cant you hear the distortion. Why even upload this shit.

[Kaveperson230]

@pukki34 Because it's PTH. Why the hell not?

[Skippy7470]

1:11 LMAO!

[TXGxTheChosenX]

It looks like each member of the band was taken from a different genre of music.

[Dannyrocksass]

Ewww screamo, dislike.

[DustiestDog]

@Dannyrocksass A majority of the song isn't screamed... It's mathcore bro

[MrMatyboy3000]

@Dannyrocksass ewww a troll, dislike

[Dannyrocksass]

@MrMatyboy3000 If you are going to troll my comment at least use punctuation for fuck sake. Retards can't even spell or puncutate nowadays.

[MrMatyboy3000]

@MrMatyboy3000 Im so sorry i did not use full stops and capital letters you grammer nazi. If you are calling me a retard then why did you come on to a video that you would dislike just to comment about it being bad in your own opinion?

Kind regards from "The Retard"

[TheGeekffs]

@Dannyrocksass Learn your shit before trolling a video, fool.

[azorath16]

this band makes Canada proud i bet

[EzuHades]

creepy ass mustache...

[ClownKiller0413]

1:13...lol

[MarcxStyler]

240p.....We meet again -_-

[marcdaskater]

2:49 Whats in this locker AHHHHHH you got me

[ZeroReaper42]

1:03-1:14 Scary good transitions. Best I've ever seen.

[hockeyplayerdiesduri]

wow, the quality of this video/music has really hit rock bottom.

[bblack21]

Cool guitar, gay vocals -.-

[XPickThePoisonX]

@bblack21 Rody Walker is a god, How dare you.



[sweeney665]

@bblack21 you on the other hand...sooo machooo!!!omg omg omg......gtfo..

[bblack21]

@sweeney665 Dude, i just said my opinion, i didnt hate or trolled, and wtf is machooo anyway, ffs.

[sweeney665]

@bblack21 ok ok fair enough...macho means manly. imo though he's one the best voices in metal.

[IGNsucks]

@bblack21 ???? how the fuck is "gay vocals" an opinion, what are you 12?.........this is an opinion: "Im not a fan of the vocals"...........this is a childish insult by an immature internet troll: "gay vocals"

[bblack21]

@IGNsucks Well , some things are GAY and it is obvious that those vocals are too. Well, I will just say the same thing differently. I personally do not like the vocals cause they sound feminine for this kind of music and also I hate hearing his voice above the good guitar riffs , ok now?

[IGNsucks]

@bblack21 Its clear you're a childish brat who hasnt yet developed any musical taste........come back and talk to me when your mature.

[bblack21]

@IGNsucks Well I believe that my taste in music is good and I can judge pretty well, I also like to experiment with new rock and metal bands and I said exacly what I heard, I also listen that track more than 10 times with better quality butmy opinion remains the same, I dont like the vocals especially when he sings at top of two very good riffs. I didnt say that he doesnt have a good voice, I say that his style is not match with the rest of the band, it feels like an annoying tiny dog barking

[IGNsucks]

@bblack21 tell me what else you like and well see if you do have good taste and his voice matches the song perfectly and his higher voice is perfect it doesnt interfere or cover up any of the riffs..........listen to this band with headphones, everything is audible and nothing is missed

[bblack21]

@IGNsucks Look mate, I dont wanna be absolute with that opinion, right now im not in mood to listen to this band, maybe after a month ill try that again. Well, right now i listen to soilwork , 30 seconds to mars, in flames , nevermore, trivium, tesseract and some iced earth. I also used to listen much to system of a down, tool, linkin park and some other random tracks that I like.

[bblack21]

@bblack21 i missed blind guardian, dream theater and children of botom

[broj15]

@bblack21 dude, this is modern prog. back in the 80's they did this all the time. listen to queensryche, king diamond, or the first 4 judas priest records and the vocals go way higher than this. go listen to your nu metal korn/ disturbed rock radio trash and come back when you develop some musical integrity.

[Youshallbeeatenbyme]

@broj15 dont be so harsh, i like disturbed =_= but i also love this band...........dont be such a dick bro

[broj15]

@Youshallbeeatenbyme sorry dude. i don't really have a problem with em other than the act that every song sounds the same... they are just the most nu metal ish band i could think of

[Youshallbeeatenbyme]

@broj15 its kai, tho their songs sound the same they have diff meanings, but i do like diff bands too xD so many, but i do love this band :D scurrilous is prolly my fav album from them just cuz it sounds like they experimented more

[andresBAR69]

great !!

[hatchetmetal420]

these guys are so good its stupid

[Musicfrommitchell]

He sounds like he could sing showtunes really well hahaha

[ItsMEandThatsIT]

this guys voice is crazy :O

[PayDroYo]

Does anybody else get goosebumps at 1:06?

[GreenBoDangles]

another amazing PTH vids. Good work boys. Barrie loves ya

[BaxterD]

Vagrant how are you gonna have this out with only 240p??? Pull it together.

[MrDanteaguilar]

very melodic and catchy. awesome

[kashguitar]

Oh my God.

[Donastejr]

Arif goes legolas at 1:12

[BTBHead213]

240p. My old enemy,

[justfoldedflags]

Man, the quality of this. Makes me sad :(

[GodBlessYouthfulness]

And in regards to BeADjent, fucking was used as an adjective to represent resent and or anger towards a noun. Thanks for trying to be a smart ass though, i enjoyed it. G'Night.

EVERYONE READING THIS

Just look up some fucking BearCore already, alright? Thanks.

[GodBlessYouthfulness]

[GodBlessYouthfulness]

@fyermaniac12 bearSonAcidBanD? We're close friends. I could give a shit. He doesn't want people hating on BearCore. But I feel as though his work should be known. If we get some ujnpleasent comments shot at us along the way, whatever. Bear Core is going to blow up B I G. If you've ever actually bothered to check BearCore out then you would know this. If you haven't been hooked on BearCore yet, then give it a shot. Type " Bear Core" into your Search Bar (Youtube)

[fyermaniac12]

@GodBlessYouthfulness I've watched the video. I don't like it. At all. That's how I know bearSonAcidBanD said that he told you to stop posting annoying messages spreading Bearcore.

[GodBlessYouthfulness]

@fyermaniac12 Well, maybe you'll like the newest upload. There's FIVE videos up now. I only slept from 7:30am to 8:30am this smorning in the past 50 something hours, and I worked yesterday and today, so i'm finally going to try to catch up on sleep. Hopefully you'll get over the fact that you have defective hearing and can't enjoy the sublime tones of musical genuis imbedded within BearCore. I'm outskies man, OFWGKTA.

[jackieeethepwner]

[DevilzInfernoz]
