The Fall Of Troy - 03 - Quarter Past

[chronic566]

Thomas Erak has a very special type of making music

[z2short]

Thomas Erak...My favorite guitar player..

[MrZirip]

LED ZEPPELIN+KING CRIMSON+RUSH+AT THE DRIVE IN= TFOT.

[fiestanoob]

@MrZirip

lolno get Zepellin out of there.

[MrZirip]

@fiestanoob

Led Zeppelin in some songs of TFOT,it´s notorius the influence..

The same Thomas Erak said that and you realize if you've heard a lot of led zeppelin.

[peachplum581]

the heads are eating eachother >.< :D

[BluetifuI]

Not bad

[ihaywirei]

i like this song.

[lightsZeroKaos]

This song gives me a jazz impression

[huffenbagel]

@lightsZeroKaos its more blues than jazz

[Lawrbear]

The Fall of Troy needs to get back together. Just Like Vinyl isn't really cutting it for me...

[ghostae138]

@Lawrbear I agree! To me, Just Like Vinyl sounds like The Fall of Troy, without energy. :\

[abcmanTR3V0R]

whoaa..

[ShadowCrowX]

this is more SKILL than talent

[15viceandvirtues]

Talented doesn't even begin to describe these guys

[Rockguitarhero462]

@15viceandvirtues they do have talent. Thomas is my fave guitar player.

[maju36able]

@Rockguitarhero462 you misunderstood what he/she was saying

[briandawkinz20]

unbelievable



[DunklerZebralord]

Imaging that there are people who really can say that this sucks.... I just want to cry.

HOW can you say TFOT is... anything expect "awesome, orgasmic, ultra" or something like that? =/

[apris666]

@DunklerZebralord guess this is too complicated for their infant-level of musicality to be understood. and when they dont understand, they count it as shit. Thats why simple radio hits are so popular - its something people with zero musicality can enjoy.

[DunklerZebralord]

@apris666 This is... a surprising simple explanation. It actually makes total sense and explain all that shit stuff in radios.

[paradoarify]

one dislike?

how unprecedented.

[TReoS96]

Love is a question in a conversation and did i mention a foul intention.

[supersilversurferman]

everytime this song comes on it takes my mind a second to say Fall of Troy instead of Mars Volta idk why

[darkhero101010]

@supersilversurferman same here!

[The1and0nly23]

Man long story short ... fall of troy is the shit man best band ever!!!! and the manipulator album is the best ever man ... can listen to the cd over and over !!!!

[TheFallofTomorrow]

@The1and0nly23 I think there first album rocked.

[primozuado]

The Fall of troy, please come back!!!

the fall of troy break up was the worst lost for music in the decade

[quackerofquack]

I miss the fall of troy.... never got to see them live

[BlendedFurry]

@quackerofquack Yeah, doesn't that suck?

[SnDLegendOfZelda]

@quackerofquack DAMN! Sorry to rub it in, but that sucks. They're so good live...er...were...

[amirawr3]

OhMyGod I Shit My Pants!

This Song Is Great <33!

[badge1332]

FALL OF TROY IS JUST THE FUCKING BEST I LOVE THOMAS ERAK

[joeyman24239]

one two three, OVERDOSE!!!

[kelvinbeyioku]

@joeyman24239 stfu noobb!!

[joeyman24239]

@kelvinbeyioku i was doing that to stephen juggz the other day, i just said one two three OVERDOSE and i party boy'd him, it was so funny

[naked166]

this album is like 50/50 for me... this one is on the suck side...

[Thatfatguyfrommars]

@naked166 this one is on the not-suck side*

[mack450z]

The Fall of Troy and Skindred hands down best bands, that includes gods hands too haha

[MysticDandy]

How exactly did Thomas think his voice sounded good enough for the recording at 2:48? Jesus Christ, love the song, but that's just bad.

[Zenjashi]

@MysticDandy that is what we call emotion. if you have ever felt anger you might understand

[MysticDandy]

@Zenjashi Nope, it's shit singing. Angry is what he sounded like in Macaulay McCulkin.

[FluffyMuffina]

@MysticDandy If you're referring to the high voice he does, thats intentional. He does it in other songs, like Problem?! and Shh! If You're Quiet I'll Show You a Dinosaur.

[dlm9293]

@MysticDandy his voice just cracked its no big deal he was gettin into it.

[robertomorales10994]

@MysticDandy i know that part sucks hahaha

[deth349]

@MysticDandy That was on purpose. He does that quite often and it sounds pretty sick.

[JustinCaparas]

@FTCT not really idk his name but the guitarist is really the whole band he writes pretty much everything

[joshburton32]

@JustinCaparas  Thomas Erak

[exsymphony]

the part where he says "heres a few things that i might say...." its the same guitar as the chorus of "single" except in a different rhythm which might explain why alot of people are talkin about thomas recycling riffs and rhythyms in the new album

[EpsilonX]

Thomas Erak claimed to not know much theory. The fact that he was able to write stuff like this is amazing.

[TheDickeyBub]

for those who havent noticed there songs are either love songs or hate songs, talking about how thomas hates his ex or he loves her

[Jara00O0]

@TheDickeyBub lol in truth. these songs are about drugs man. drugs.

[PickleSpiffy]

I absolutely hate that none of my friends have even heard of this band. And those who do hate it. Mainstream has brainwashed them D:

[ilikePIEandPIE123456]

my favourite song by them, maybe

[BeatsOfTheAngels14]

This song is so amazing its addicting :)

[luvsingin6]

expressing my opinion does not make me an asshole..just because i don't like tom's voice doesn't mean you need to bite my ass off. thanks, i will have a nice day actually.

[101gamerboy]

@luvsingin6 BITCH. THOMAS HAS AN AWESOME VOICE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[jonahrulez]

@luvsingin6 Lol one little comment and everyone goes overboard...

[luvsingin6]

i understand that, i agree about the emotion thing, however my personal preference is raw emotion and euphony. and yes i would prefer just the instrumental of the fall of troy if that is what you mean.

[YouWontBeLaughing]

Here's a few things that I might say, If you really wanna know I've got nothin' in my way... 1 2 3 overdose! You make me feel like I can fly, Keep me up all damn night Incredible, I know you're skeptical Believe me I'm not wastin' any time I found what I had to find, Is what's on my mind my favorite part :). haha this song reminds me of me and my girlfriend.

[FirewallCMD]

Has anyone noticed that just about Fall Of Troy song has some kind of amazing intro?

[FERDABANG]

u guys are fags with no lives to b fighting on youtube comments. just enjoy the awsome music

[myotherhalf33]

Such an emotional guitar riff.

If you know how to sing, this song really trances you.

[luvsingin6]

you know, i really do like them. but tom needs to stop pretending he can sing. if he'd just shut up the music would be so much more enjoyable. this and caught up..what a joke

[UNDERCOVERBLACKheart]

@luvsingin6 YOUR LIFE... WHAT A JOKE.. DUDE YOUR LAME TOM CAN SING HIS ASS OF.. JUST CAUSE HE DOESNT SOUND LIKE A 13 YEAR OLD GIRL (IE JOHHNY CRAIG) DOESNT MEAN HE CANT SING.. AFTER IM DONE TYPING THIS COMMENT IM GOING ON TO YOUR CHANNEL TO SEE WHAT YOU CONSIDER SINGING AND IF I SEE HANNA MONTANA I WONT BE SUPRISED.. FAG

[UNDERCOVERBLACKheart]

@luvsingin6 OMG SO I WENT ON YOUR CHANNEL AND WHAT I DID I FIND... OH NOTHING JUST THAT YOU JUST SUBSCRIBED TO JUSTINBIEBERVEVO.. SO HONESTLY IF YOU HAVE THE ODDASETIY TO MAKE A COMMENT THAT THOMAS CANT SING YOU SHOULD HANG YOUR SELF TO THE FAGISH SOUND THAT COMES OUT OF THAT KIDS MOUTH AND I WILL ATTEND YOUR FUNERAL WITH MY GUITAR TO PLAY SLEDGEHAMMER AT THE SERVICE THEN AS AN ENCORE I WILL TAKE A PISS ON YOUR GRAVE...TFOT FTW PS FUCK INDIA

[luvsingin6]

@UNDERCOVERBLACKheart

hahah. um wanna settle down there?

no man, what i consider singing is talent..i've been singing for 9 years and i think i know what that is. it's nice how you've conveniently ignored the opera videos and other videos i've favorited on there. good thing you can spell audacity. and your racial slurs make you sound so smart.

although i have to agree liking justin bieber is kind of embarrassing for me but whatever. i like his music. who cares if his balls haven't dropped.

[2Dbloodline]

@luvsingin6 Fuck you, Thomas Erak is a great singer. I don't care what the fuck you have to say back to me, this is just a straight up onslaught towards you. You can fuck right off to town. If you for some reason favor Justin Beiber over Thom, then you really don't know what singing is. Beiber is a little douchebag, and when his balls drop, he will suck worse than he does now. Get the fuck over yourself, shit-kicker. And again, you can fuck off. Ass wipe.

[NarutoFreak07]

@2Dbloodline Justin Beiber is an abomination to the music industry.

[2Dbloodline]

@luvsingin6 Oh, and if you wanna hear singing, go to a concert for someone older than 12. By the way, I don't care how old he really is, he's 12 to me.

[luvsingin6]

@2Dbloodline

pretty sure i never said anything about liking justin over thom..

if you think thom's wailing is "great", you don't have an ear for music. he can't even stay on tune, how can you tell me he's a good singer? and there is NO denying he can't stay on tune, listen to him live and you'll realize. not that you could even tell, ignorant as you are. he should stick to guitar.

[2Dbloodline]

@luvsingin6 I've seen him live. And I said I don't give a flying fuck what you say dude. Oh, and I'm not ignorant. You're just moronic. You just don't have an ear for good music. That will be all, goodnight, asshole.

[luvsingin6]

@2Dbloodline baseless insults are always useful, nice one man.

[rexasul]

@luvsingin6 just because he might not use the "correct" vocal techniques, or sing like you think he should, there's this thing called emotion. this is raw and pure, something a lot of over trained singers can never come close to. you sound like you listen to backing tracks for fun.

[fradooodle]

@luvsingin6 Hey, asshole! I just thought I'd stop by to say shut the fuck up. Have a nice day (:

[101gamerboy]

@fradooodle Lol

[TheGreenWeedWizard]

@fradooodle lol

[elijah1110]

when did this album come out? and how old is the fall of troy?

[OutlawJoseyWales44]

This album came out in 2007, when the members of the band were about 21-22, and the band started in 2000, before that they were The Thirty Years War, but they broke up on I believe Feb. 26 :(

[joemusiclover]

i think this is one of the best fall of troy song's, if not this than a man a plan....

[Rafathekillers]

@PAPAtrog : fuck you. stop talking bullshits, dude ;)

[GRRimVangie]

I. can't. believe. they. are. breaking. up.

[auselnator]

fall of troy is not breaking up till a spring US tour in 2010 (all information on wiki)

[miliwak]

wiki lies alot man....hahahah

[FTCT]

SO instrumentally talented. Just genius. Catchy. Perfection. The Fall of Troy is just the perfect trio.

[EnzoDrumminPeace]

@FTCT I agree 100%. That couldn't have been said any better way

[jonno6590]

@FTCT WAS the perfect trio

[KingDinasaur]

@jonno6590 :'(

[ujustwanna]

@FTCT WERE the perfect trio

[JustinCaparas]

@FTCT was :l

[EpsilonX]

i forgot this song existed. i'm like "quarter past...that sounds familiar..." but i remember it

[justiniscoolohyea]

[brentj18]

My fav lyrics by band and andrew is the best drummer

[1ocmer1]

Makes me feel like i can fly (:

[Elixirpoo]

[OutlawJoseyWales44]

[phreshsk821]

best song on the album in my opinion

[The1ne07]

1:23, I love the fast pace, my favourite part of the song, hands down.

[CookieLovesMuffin]

i love song...i sing it all the time..in the shower in the car when im eating when im sleeping. i wonder how people around dont know the lyrics yet hahah

[000colourful000]

This is one of my favourites, a nice balance between their usual stuff and songs like "caught up" very happy atm. marry me thomas erak.

[joshstockinger]

every damn time i find an amazing band, the're already broke up. y do guys like this split, yet shity bands lke a.f.i. r still around???!?

[davidmly08]

they haven't broken up, Tim left the band.

[m3m0ryburn3r]

@joshstockinger...they didnt split up, they just got a new bassist

[HaroldFeldberg]

dude, The Fall Of Troy are still together, lol they put out the latest album, like a few weeks ago, maybe a month at tops

[PAPAtrog]

the fall of troy broke up!?!?!?!?!?! are you sure?

[Newkidxx]

No, the fall of troy did not break up. Tim left the band, and their new bassist Frank now plays for them.

[PAPAtrog]

no shit man i thought he meant like they broke up yesterday or something

[dart1971]

Yep, and Frank Black is the bomb!

[SFxTAGG3]

no they didnt. hence the new album.

[PAPAtrog]

no shit you dumb bitch.... i thought they broke up right after the album you dirty slut... mind your own fucking business... deffinently if it happened over a month ago

[eXpLiiiSiT]

if they broke up. why are they playing a show tonite in seattle??

[tom29910]

when you post a comment to the public, it's everyone's business.

[ZeroSwitch]

RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGE

[CookieLovesMuffin]

i love this song... im always singing it and i dont even notice!. <3

[itakun94]

This sounds like the Blues a little bit.

I love it.

:D

[friggingbomb88]

nice slow song

[TheAndyxChrist]

fucking epic song

[bzradiohead18]

1:54 to 2:14 give me chills everytime

[andykins118118]

Is it just me or does Thomas's voice sound really good in this song, like better than most of their songs?

maybe he was having a good day during the recording, but it is really really good in this song

[SnEaX01]

Or maybe they fixed his voice in the studio....

[andykins118118]

well they could have done that in all the other songs too but it sounds better in this one than other songs of theirs.  you can only doctor a voice in the studio so much

[SnEaX01]

they can fix it to the point of perfection. They probably decided the vocals on this one should be better and less gritty then the rest of the album.

[andykins118118]

its actually a bit nasally. but its still really good. but yeah there is no "perfect voice" it's a matter of preference. so yeah you should find me a perfect voiced singer.

[zombies000]

John Baldwin Gourley

[pinksock07]

agreed

[Silverfisk]

There is no such thing as "fixing someones voice in the studio"! You don't know jack shit about producing or music either for that matter. It is possible to correct the pitch and make it sound more crisp but you can't improve someones singing without having them sound like a robot.

[anthonysjb]

it juss depends on if yuh use to much auto tone. if yuh use jus the rite amount yuh cant even tell they used it. its juss the singing'll sound betr

[Silverfisk]

Yeah that's what I said you can improve the pitch but as long as you can sing and you're in a scale you're comfortable with it wont make that big a difference since the "autotuner" is working slowly to avoid the T-pain effect.

[dullesthedog1]

same here. i actually didn'tt like it at first but i didn't listen to those to parts. onnce i did i grew to love this song.

[mcm1220022]

Beautyfull lyrics

[acontractforher]

[XxSolarEclpisexX]
