  • Love Darkest Hour but I feel like all Mike was thinking during the solo was "Fucking fuck Kris Norris right now"

  • I love this song

  • Niice

  • seriously don't know why people are bashing Avenged Sevenfold on a fucking Darkest Hour video like really suck a dick and get a life A7X is good may mot be what you like but stop shit talking them because they are as you say mainstream they get metalcore more known and if you think they got soft go listen to nightmare then jump off a cliff A7X is awesome now back to the point of watching this video darkest hour they are pretty beast and I'm just getting into them and loving it

  • @startingabandsoon lol chill dude those kids that are talking shit obviously only listen to A7X's new stuff, their old stuff is the best metalcore everrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr­rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr­rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

    and city of evil is pro as shit.

  • @lolyermad haha yeah i was upset then i don't even know how long ago that was but i'm an extreme A7X fan and their new stuff is still great but i also just hate when people talk shit about other bands on another bands video it's so stupid and pointless

  • Really they pick Demons over doomsayer?

    cmon darkest hour

  • @girlpartz Doomsayer isn't that great. This is there best song to date.

  • mike did the solo?

  • @butterknucklez i know it totally caught me by surprise when i saw it to dude. it could be because kris norris had just left and the lonestar didn't know the songs to well yet. maybe.

  • Comment removed

  • @butterknucklez kris usually does it right

  • Wait what the fuck?!?!!??! 240p, 360p, 720p....

    WHERE'S 480p?

  • Lol are they playing in a fucking skatepark or is it me?

  • How did demons get so popular anyway? Ask a dh fan their fab song and they probrably won't answer with demons. I'm not saying it's a bad song I'm just saying there is alot more songs by them that are better...

  • @thetruegamer1 It was used in Guitar Hero 5 :/ ... Thats where some people learned about this band

  • @chutees like me, and I feel terrible for it. I don't know how I missed their previous albums... But I'm making progress anyway. Awesome band

  • @DarksteelPowerchord man previous albums are the shit! go buy them! ;)

  • @beghdav halfway there ;) defintely worth it!

  • @thetruegamer1 Guitar hero - enough said. Any band that needs a lift in their music career takes to the GH franchise, where it's all about the collaboration of the song as a whole, as apposed to the popularity of the piece. This song is great for guitar hero.

  • This is Sooper Dooper! (observational note)...John H. is singing the exact same way he did on the E.R. album, but this was recorded in '08.....I wonder if he was just testing his SilverBackgorrilaTypaScream for this show....hmm.

  • epic!

  • his vocals sound like shit here im a huge darkest hour fan and im just being honest

  • Was gutted when Kris Norris left DH :(

  • Sanctuary is the best of Deliver Us by miles but they never play it live :(

  • When did John stop wearing button downs?

  • Oh fuck, the vocals here looks like Lamb Of God xD

  • F-U-C-K-I-N  A-W-E-S-O-M-E.

  • love this song but here yeah the singer isnt that good.

  • did they get a new singer? or does he just not look like bill gates anymore?

  • @alpengeist19

    hahah he doenst look like him anymore but it's still the same ;) I was wondering it myself 2.

  • kris norris never should have left DH...shame

  • since wen was lones star in deliver us? lol

  • i personally hate the quality of the recordings but i have to say i love this song :D

  • woah not only does the singer look less nerdy but he sounds was different live...wait.....they all look different....WTF IS GOING ON!!!!DX !!!lol

  • That was pretty good. I dunno they had released the new album at that time but if they had they should have played the tides, that song has sick solos.

  • great band. great song. 

  • F?ckin orsom

  • Amazing... that is all

  • A producer should listien to the song and know when to focus on the face melter.

  • sounds awesome! this is when they still had Kris as the guitarist. the new guitarist sucks though.

  • @masamune702 Mike Carrigan had some big shoes to fill, but he does not suck in the least bit. His stuff on The Eternal Return is amazing.

  • I think he messed up the solo a lil xD But rest was awesome :D

  • Question: Is the singer in this video the same one that did the vocals on the "Deliver Us" album? He sounds the same, but he looks different from the guy doing vocals in the "Demon(s)" video.

  • Yeah, that's John Henry. He and Mike Schleibaum have been in the band since the beginning.

  • @wetpickle12 Awesome. Thanks dude.

  • @MetalHeadThree Mhmm this song is on Deliver Us, also.

  • @PanicScene1 Yeah, I know that. I love the cd. I was just curious about my question before.

  • fucking luv this song

    their last album is bad ass

  • sound is pissing me off! keeps fluxuating!

  • i love Darkest Hour!

    They are good live..

  • Is the right guitarist Lonestar?

  • yes, he joined a month before they went on the daily habit

  • i still rather the studio version

  • seriously they need to get off Victory. Victory is fucking them so bad. I saw DH live with Trivium and White Chapel. one of the guitarists had a broken tuner and he had to keep fixing it. all of em had like gigantic holes in their shirts. i felt really bad for them. they need a label that doesn't fuck them out of their money.

  • with lonestar they sound more metal than ever before!

  • I really miss kris norris, the new cd sounds good but it lacks kris's baby making solos

  • Holly shit, Mike can just NOT play Kris's parts. Like seriously, he fucking ruined that half of the solo T_T

  • Well for one thing, the sweeps at the end of the solo are harmonized, so even Kris can't make it sound perfect live. Secondly, the solo is rather difficult. Cut em some slack.

  • @Phoenix322

    Of course its a harmony, Kris always does that, on almost all his solos.

    Its harmonized a minor third, but too my ear the DM and EM sit higher in the mix than the Bm and C#m, so I'm fairly certain thats whats Kris would play live.

  • @Phoenix322

    Mike just can't do it. And its simply because Mike is a NOT a lead player, he never has been, and when he does, its stuff like the first half (his half) of the Demons solo. I think Lonestar can do justice to Kris's parts is all, thats why it pisses me off they made Mike even try.

  • I see what you're saying, but for all we know it could have been his idea to play it.

  • Then thats even worse that they would let him -_-

    I have a feeling they wanted to start giggin again as soon as possible once they added Lonestar, so they probz just split the solos up, which is a shame, because while Lonestar isn't nearly as good as Kris, he can at least do the leads credit, whereas Mike cannot. Seeing them in March though, so I wonder if Lonestar will take on more of the leads (Hoping so, lol)

  • @superjesus117 The two guitarists have VERY different styles of playing.

  • darkest hour is the greatest band in the world. hands down.

  • yeah kris norris wrote some catchy tunes. but kris or no kris, darkest hour will keep putting out great records.

  • wow schleibaum butchered that solo. lonestar could have ripped the shit out of it

  • dude... the sound tech for this show needs to be fired. every band i've seen preform on this show has it's quality taken way down because of the shitty sound techs. DH, however, sounds fantastic despite that.

  • as i lay dyings wasn't as bad as this one but yeah they need a new tech for sure

  • ugh. kris needs to come back. solo was awful.

  • agreed but check out the new stuff he came out with its pretty sick

  • kris norris

  • i saw them live october 7 and when they played this song, mike played the whole solo instead of lonestar.

  • Idk man i miss Kris alot dnt get me wrong Mike playd the solo ryt but Kris was awsum dh is not the same without him

  • Eh I miss Kris too, but John, I think anyway, is the main driving force behind Darkest Hour.

  • yeah, John is an integral part of the band, but Kris is what made the band great, to me. he's what gave the band its truly melodic sound, and the new guitarist just doesn't give that to them. they're more straight-up metalcore now, instead of the infinitely better melodic metalcore that they were earlier. they just need to get Kris back into the band... lol

  • singer sounds diffrent here. like his voice sounds more brutal? lol idk

  • lol im just like ryan always wearing a dam beenie :P and a7x is beast although dh is better its not like a7x is awful

  • a7x is like atreyu the most mainstream metal there is...

  • yea but i still like atreyu better i've been listenin to them before they sold out

  • *cough*

    a7x is ABSOLUTELY NOTHING like Atreyu.

  • No shit but they are still mainstream deutschbags.

  • You said 'A7x is like atreyu; which is the most mainstream metal there is'

    Even if you did mean it that way, that's like me saying 'As i lay dying is like Owl City..so mainstream'

    And by the way, Deutsch is literally 'German'

    I believe the word you're looking for is 'douche'

  • I meant deutsch so i could emphasize pronunciation i know it means German.

    Its something we say around where i live because douchebag gets old.

    And as far as the 'A7x is like atreyu; which is the most mainstream metal there is'

    comment goes i did mean to say that and that is like nothing like saying as i lay dying is like owl city because of big genre differences...Deutschbag.

  • Even so, A7x and atreyu are different genres.

  • a7x and atreyu both fucking suck u faggot

  • Ok 'the queers'

    When in my posts did I praise either of them?

    Learn to read Faggot.

  • cough.. suck a dick

  • *cough*

    Great comeback.

    And I asked you a question.

  • @bandanaface whats wrong with a7x?

  • Nothing.

    In my opinion they've strayed from their roots, but aside from that, they're still a7x.

  • @bandanaface actually i know what you're talking about but the whole mainstream hate gets kind of old

  • It's not because they're mainstream, it's because they've gone softer.

    He can't scream anymore :[

  • @bandanaface yeah he can you seen the lbc show live right? they did an awesome version of second heartbeat...

  • Shadows might as well put a du-rag on and start a biker gang.

    I'm sorry, but the way they were in waking the fallen is the way they should've stayed.

    This isn't my professional opinion, just my personal one.

  • no, he can, he just doesnt want to

  • you say suck a dick.. you shouldnt be talking your name is the queers....

  • L2 Music faggot.

  • Very nice live preformance, I like it alot!

    \m/

  • mike did a pretty good job doing kris's solo, you got to give him so props

  • Only that is devon who did the solo in the video...

  • they dont have a devon in their band. but devon townsend did produce their cd. I was talking about Mike Schleeibaum not the new mike

  • Comment removed

  • When they recorded the album, they both played the solo. Mike just did the first half by himself. It's the only solo that Mike did on the album. Kris just stays rhythm to keep the fullness of the rhythm, and probably to give Mike a moment in the spotlight

  • Mike also did the solo on Stand and Receive Your Judgement though

  • thats what i love about shows like this. therse no audiance: the audiance ruins the sound so tards like meh cant listen to the video jejeje

  • this band fuckin rocks now this is real music!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • best melodic death metal/progressive metalcore kick ass band in the whole fuckin world.Please guyz come back in Greece where u fucked the hell up!!! Darkest Fuckin Hour for life \m/ \m/ \m/

  • Kris Norris left to pursue a career as a producer.

    Man I miss that fucking guy.

    Although, his replacement, Mike Carrigan, is a very good guitarist. It is apparent on the solos on their new album, especially in the song "The Tides".

  • the solo juss isnt that good without the old guitarist

  • i kinda like his voice better live than on the cd

  • this is post kris norris and it shows. he's the genius behind the brutally mind bending solos featured in deliver us and his absence is kind of apparent. I'm a very lively darkest hour fan and can't wait to go pick up the Eternal Return this Tuesday, but man will that guy be missed.

  • why did he leave?

  • He had a son, constant touring/recording wasn't really an option anymore. He also wanted to focus on his solo career and experiment with being a producer

  • Dude, I have that same At the Gates t'....it's "Suicidal Final Tour!"

  • i swear i dont know why darkest hour is so under rated.

    alot of people i know say they suck

    i love darkest hour i saw them live and they are really good, i think,

  • they sound better on the album. I'd still love to see them live, though.

  • Why the fuck do they never play sanctuary it's by far the best song on the album!

  • sin el otro guitarro no es lom mismo que mal que suenan asiapesar que eran una de mis bandas preferidas

  • Comment removed

  • They sound good too me the audio cuts in and out the guitarists sound fine to me tho. It's the vid cuz everything gets loud and quiet

  • john henry has revolutionized the wasy hardcore sounds.

    i feel this is a new style.

    or

    at the very least,

    a new sub-genre.

    :)

  • Metalcore has been around for awhile. I mean, I guess technical Metalcore could be a newer genre or something I suppose. Don't take this the wrong way but have you heard of Metalcore?

  • Nope metalcore has been around for a really long time along with more technical metalcore (most of which are mathy)I know what you mean though. I just wish people would hear the word metalcore and automatically not think its trash. Metalcore is a lot better than what you hear out of garbage such as A7x and Attack Attack!

  • and the best metalcore bands aren't even emo like people say. hell darkest hour gets put into melodic death metal also just look it up on wiki.

  • A7x is metalcore though... (if you are thinking about Waking The Fallen). A7X has always sucked though, they suck now and they sucked when they made metalcore as well

  • Hey man fuck you! They are all very talented and u until you work up the balls to make as good music as them, your ass can shut the fuck up! You ignorant, know nothing piece of shit.

  • This coming from emoskaterpunk57 the fact that you have the words emo and skater in your name means you are a fucking tool and shouldn't be listening to DH. Now go touch yourself to some Armor For Sleep. =D

  • Something you have to reallize is that alot of the time it's too hard to replicate the studio sound you have live. I've seen Darkest Hour and Children Of Bodom and both bands have trouble with it. They both play live guitars with regular distortion, it's just the fact that they don't have a million supression pedals and effects on the guitar while he's playing live.

  • go beat off to escape the fate you fucking cunt

  • people fucking dumb the sound was cutting in and out the whole time his solo was fine

  • No he did hit some wrong notes here and there. He did it live when I saw them too but it's understandable. It's a hard fucking solo to pull off.

  • this is one of my favorite bands...great song!!

  • his vocals are more brutal live !

  • the new guitarist suck dick!

  • hey thats cool dude.

  • молодцы

  • whats wrong with their timing?? even their nxt song was out of timing T_T

  • do you know how shitty the sound must be in there...

  • ~That, and most of metal bands usually play a little faster live, you know.. Adrenalline, emotion, all that works and that happens. I find it amusing that they are able to do that and even improvise a bit.

  • wtf mike ?? dnt do solos you cant do. hope you find a better guitarist than kris.. DH back to trash metal!!though i like them on sadist nation T_T

  • If you ever saw them live kris really never could pull certain solos off that solo in particular was recorded a couple notes at a time, cuz he couldn't play it all the way through without fucking up, Mike is actually better about his solos, i think they will be back to sadist/ruin era should be good shit

  • eh bullshit. Kris Norris is a solid fucking guitarist. Everyone knows from this video that they arent going to be playing a whole lot of his shit, and will resort to old stuff prior to Norris and new shit. He may of hit the solo on this one, but it was sloppy, and have you even heard the new Kris norris projekt? When you listen to it, you think "Hey this is Darkest Hour". It's not, just him. He's so bad ass he took their sound with him when he left. Now thats tough.

  • I love DH, but that wasn't very good at all.

  • When your playing shit that bad ass, and technical mess ups are gonna happen. Even Eddie Van Halen messes up dude, but to say that Kris could never pull his own shit off live is ridiculous. I have seen them (with Norris) 6 times and everytime the shows were fucking awesome, with a few mess ups. And to say that he held them back live, DUDE he WAS their sound. Without him they wouldnt have become what they are today, and would still be playing these small clubs blasting their hardcore music.

  • yeah it kinda hurt watching my fav band suffer, but mike carrigan did get a little better if you look up " darkest hour austin" you can see that he actually can keep up nao

  • man your such a norris fanboy, yeah, he's a fucking beast of a guitarist, and it sucks that he left, but the new guy is good too, and you should stop these stupid fucking rants about it.

  • Exactly. Obviously the new guy must be good right? I mean why else would they hire a new guitarist who can't play, Norris is awesome ,but seriously come on we can't live in the past.

  • thats what im hoping for :)

  • no more kris norris....T_T

  • haha carrigan. is that the name he is going by?

  • any one know where to find the other preformance from this episode?

  • you can find it on their myspace page.....they have with a thousand words to say but one also

  • Mike looks so weird with his guitar that high haha

  • Kris Norris isn't in the band anymore?! What the fuck! He's the reason i like them

  • no he left

  • i want to learn to scream like him so bad

  • Mike has completely surpassed anything I can believe in terms of shredding.. but I think Kris played them better... and he looked cooler when he did too :P

  • Yay Schleibaum is acctually getting to show that he can shred those solos just as much as Kris could. Kris was awesome and will be missed but Mike can fucking play, and soloing is something you hardly ever got to see from him before, i'm stoked for the new album to see what he does.

  • Dude, I know Mike is under rated and is good at soloing to, but no one will play like Kris

  • oh i know, Kris is amazing and i will always think of him as one of the best guitar players i've heard, but i'm just saying that Mike is awesome too, and i'm stoked to hear what he comes up with on the new album since Kris isn't going to be there to do all the soloing.

  • I hear you. Anyway darkest hour rocks

  • Yeah - this truly saddens me. :(

  • how how i miss Kris Norris :(

  • yyyeeeeaahhhh Darkest hour my Band Favorit Demons love song

  • Great band, always been a favorite of mine.

  • their new guitarist hasnt been in any previous darkest hour albums dood,his name is mike [carrigan]....your confusing him with mike [garrity],also there guitarist from the first and 2nd album was [fred ziomek] if im not mistaken...

  • Fuck yeah! Wreck that shit!

  • great job guys

  • so im guessin shcleibaum is going to take over lead guitar for their next album?

  • hopefully he is very capable of it he is an amazing guitarist

  • yeah its good he finally gets to play lead, not sure if he played lead on the albums before hidden hands did he?...and umm why did some hater put a thumbs down on my first comment when i was just askin a question....geez douches these days ¬¬'

  • no he did not play lead on the albums before, fred ziomek played lead on the mark of the judas and so sedated so secure and then fred left after so sedated was released, then tommy gun helped them for a while, then mike garrity filled in for a bit then kris norris came in and now mike carrigan is the new lead

  • yup from what ive heard

  • holy shit john henry sounds so fucking awesome.

  • shit fuck yeah dude his voice is deeper now

    it's sooo fucking gooood omgggggg
