  • I shall pass the illscarlet vibes to my fellow hawaiians. One love from kauai, hawaii

  • Enter your text here.

  • damn...i love this song <3

  • I love this song cause I'm trying to become a cop. We are living in a police state. Join or die bitches!!!

  • @darthramstar lol

    

  • @darthramstar uhh, you realize this song is rippin on cops right?

  • @skislope4 yeah but they sort of admit defeat so I'm inspired

  • summeraid!!

    2011

  • Awesome band thanks for uploading!

  • they were at warped this year c: i bought sunglasses from them but i lost em right before i left :/

  • i think i just murdered the replay button

  • more

  • personally this is the best band to come out of canada ;)

    even tho where im from no ones heard of em :-(

  • This song was awesome at the Toronto Freedom Festival‼

  • illScarlett = Canada's Sublime.

  • @dfbhcf illScarlett=illScarlett, Sublime=Sublime

  • @xXDAELEIXx I agree, but if there was a Canadian equivalent of Sublime it would be illScarlett.

  • Fucking Po-po. I wonder if they wrote this song after going to Vancouver..

  • hey guys if you like ska and love this band, check us out. We are a ska band from Georgetown Ontario. We are a blend between reggae ska and a little mix of hardcore. we have free music on our youtube page. Check us out One love Half Beat just search halfbeat on you tube!

  • illScarlett* and thanks for the uplaod :)

  • I'm an "old bastard"...but I love this band! Damn they've got it. Roll 'em if ya got 'em

  • Upload them all man

  • Finally, another band other sublime than can pull it off

  • @12345JJBB There's actually quite a few ska bands out there that are pretty sick. Try Reel Big Fish, The Skatalites, Bad Manners, Goldfinger, Fishbone, or Less than Jake. They're all pretty sick. You just have to listen around, do research, & you'll find lots of interesting Ska with different sounds.

  • @PeaceFlag420 I'm actually going to spend the time to look up the ones I havent heard of that you mentioned

  • @12345JJBB You should.

  • when comparing bands,, especially in a genre that isn't as pronounced as what we hear on hits1.. its hard not to hear some of the same qualities in one band as we do another.. like these guys and sublime. . listen to the lyrics.. completely different. makes em original.. and descent which they are. but lets face it... ska music isn't realllllllllly music? its just what hippies listen to when they masturbate cuz they can't get laid cuz they're always burnt the fuck out. god love elle scarlett

  • @jwkilla49 Your comment needs some more structure to it... Such as an attempt at using your big boy words (spell check, and a proofread wouldn't hurt either). Thanks for adding your narrow-minded virginous opinion to the matter dude!

    Listen to the music and shut the fuck up.

  • @jwkilla49 Uhm, I'm pretty sure I'm not a "hippie" nor do I masturbate to ska, because I can't get laid... Haha. I love Ska, & it IS music. What you just said... meant... no sense, actually.

  • Comment removed

  • Great music that's all it is

  • @JamesMaltby1 no sir it is more than that. America is going under. Don't confuse entertainment with activism even if sometimes they are in the same genre!

  • Well guys, if you want I can upload all of the song from the CD's. Only if there is enough demand for them though. I've got a few days off work in september. Leave a message in the channel, or here if you want more

  • @zukofsky

    If you really want to support them, buy their CDs, T-shirts... go to their shows, they put on a great set. Not saying you're not, but the accessibility of their songs on the net is what hurts these bands. They deserve to be supported not exploited!

  • I wouldn't say this sounds nothing like Sublime, cause it's the same genre. It's bound to sound similar or it wouldn't be ska.

  • (Y).

  • it's got a sublime vibe....but i wouldn't say they are wannabe's...they do their own thing and they sound good, it just happens to be similar to sublimes sound......rock on Ill Scarlet love the music

  • yeeeyeee ontario represent!

  • This song should be the anthem for the G20 summit shitshow that went down this weekend!

  • this song has a tune that you'd think Sublime or Daniel Wesley would have made! Surprised it was ill scarlet to be honest, great song!

  • i used to not like this song but now i find it realyl catchy xD

  • Playing in Brantford Ontario on June 5th with OLP, Marianas Trench and The Trews!! Can't Wait!!!

  • they definatly draw inspiration from sublime but whose cares there in a genre of music and lots of it can sound similar. they still have their own kinda new generation sound, sublime was a bit more old school cuz brad was a big fan of older rap like quest and KRS ONE obviously. so there not a sublime wana be they just are in the same reggae genre as them and its great music

  • @badfish5447link

    Brad did like rap songs but he was a way bigger fan of punk and reggae..

  • who's the real artist to this song

  • @lavvanr

    what do you mean?

  • @weiszydude exactly what does lawanr mean!

  • not*

  • nice. this is my favorite type of music but i really like these guys

  • such a chill song

  • i always roll my spliffs to this song

  • haha i used to do that to electric avenue by eddy grant but now it's a different song every time..

  • @punkrockjohnn just smoked one to it. ;)

  • to mme?

  • Comment removed

  • who me? cuz if it iz fuck you. cock muncher

  • they were good last night

  • In my opinion nobody will be like SUBLIME... But hounestly I never heard a such of great band as ILL SCARLETT and remind me all the time the SUBLIME good times... cuz ILL SCARLETT is a really great band, original band and original songs... I think the are trying to create and have fun... and they do soooo good... so.. everybody forget the shit and enjoy the show, otherwise just forget this band and go to look another poor bands...

  • learn the english language a bit better before you comment. thanks :)

  • This is an original for Ill Scarlet. Stop being fucking tweens and talking shit. Great song too. You kids need to go back to reading books and stop talking shit. lol

  • @kuklinskiparker101 okay sublime does not have a song called heaters you fucknig tard, they have songs with similar lyrics and shit, but this is an original, illscarlett is the shit, so go suck a dick. faggot.

  • eat my balls fucking queer. This is A COVER!!! Sublime POLICE STATE!!! learn some shit. I didnt say it was called heaters, I was playing shows will ill scarlett before you even heard them on the edge loser, so shut your fucking mouth little bitch ass 18 year old punk

  • i don't think theres a sublime song called police state either. i've been listening to sublime for a long time, and illscarlett since illscarletts been around. got a signed copy of illP in 2005 i think it was? way to assume shit. i dont listen to the edge its shitty and ruins songs. besides only illscarlett songs they play are the garbage emo-y ones like 'nothing special'

  • the edge played this song as soon as EPdemic came out...

  • just goes to show how much i listen to the edge. regardless i was only disporving whats-his-face who said i only heard them from the edge

  • fair enough, i was just stickin up for the edge's occasionally slightly good musical tastes :P

  • @kuklinskiparker101 no its not you fuckin idiot

  • (the graydon) not really man...i mean of course its gonna be different because someone else wrote shit like this, but the style of music is definately sublime man....and labrat420 knows what im saying...what the fuck is milkshakes and razorblades?? give me the fucking babylon song.

  • kinda like streetpharmacy

  • streetpharmacy started because of illScarlett. They know each other. streetpharmacy opened for them a few times. They even say in the episode of disBand that they were on that they are huge fans of illScarlett.

  • my bro met these guys at a bar in newfoundland , there big coke heads. my bros said but there pretty fucking kool tho

  • @eyexdestroy i dont believe u i knew these guys personally i dont thibk that alex or swavek would do that

  • hey believe what you want to hear . i like the band anyways i wouldn't careless if they did drugs or not.

  • i wish they stayed this good instead of putting out that trendy shit they play now

  • I really dig this song from IllScarlett :)

  • they are diff than sublime you scrub

  • this band KILLS live!

    best ive seen since the good old 90's....

  • come on, Sublime and Illscarlett do sound similar you gotta admit it, beginning is near identical to april261992

  • dude, i used to go to these guys shows in caledon east (where i live), like 3 years ago when they were still local. never met them, but dam they were good. but still dude, i know its a dick thing to say but man i belive they are selling out now. like nothing special was one song that was on the boarderline, but now with that new single out, i think they are done for, and are going to become the new billy tallent. a real shame, i love this band, this song, and everything old they did.

  • billy talent is amazing...

  • @chrisplayaa HELLS YAH

  • Billy Talent is part of one of Canada's biggest rock storys. There also from Mississauga, I think illscarlett will do vERY good aswell. :)

  • Reppin sauga :D!

  • There Canadian! :D As am I

  • this doesnt sound anything like sublime lol, just cuz its gotta upbeat doesnt make em wanna-bes, fuck off there great

  • lol they're both great bands! so even if i was ill scarlett, i'd love being able to sound like the great band sublime.

  • @Sublemon7 everyone thinks any sort of reggae dub sounds like sublime

  • not true...sublime and no doubt do not sound a like...but i know these guys personally...and they admitted to be a sublime rip off band far before they became famous.

  • r these guy canadien

  • i was rockin down the street just a while ago, listening to this song on the radio, singing it, and im going 80 in a 60 (not much, but the guy infront of me was going 90), and the guy infront of me gets caught by a speed trap... police state...

  • someone wanna tell me who's in the picture in the video? Singer, drummer, lead hguitarist, DJ...where's the bassist? That aint John.

  • these guys are sick live

  • yeah...I'm pretty sad though That i restored my Ipod and my friend who had their CD's lost all his music. All he had was live versions...they're sick but I do miss the EPdemic versions....and now I have no My life or Rally>.>I'd buy it but it's apparently not on Itunes...anyone have an idea where I can buy EPdemic? Canadian HMV's?

  • then you either have a really shitty taste in music or youre gay

  • sillygillman and Benjarides

    dude Sublime's like , beyond words amazing .

    And there's no doubt illScarlett's major influences included Sublime.

    I dunno, not to hate err anything, but you can't say they're trying to be Sublime since their sound is DISTINCTLY different. Same genre, yess, but they have a completely different feel in the music and the lyrics no doubt.

  • 100% agree, just because they are SKA doesnt mean there sublime wanna-be's, thats like saying everysingle metal band after METALLICA is trying to be just like them...its e style of music people, nothing else

  • there will never be another sublime so why even try?

  • There not trying to be sublime you idiot.
