[SteveNothinGood]

man i was just doin my job



[brainless14]

Common Dreads is my favorite album so far. They seem to evolve so much with each release. This and Zzzonked and The Jester being far more advanced imo than Take to The Skies (great album still). Can't wait for A Flash Flood of Colour. Arguing With Thermometers got me excited.

[GoJoeFilms]

Amazing lyrics!



[Nikkoush]

@OJmilk axle grinder

[x0kamix]

I love that "travel back in time" part (0:33-1:10)

[NFSPS99999]

@x0kamix Dont get it??

[interpol211]

@NFSPS99999 the melody bro

[gibsdsid]

Isn't this song about some kind of myth?

[legalizeit727]

@gibsdsid I know its a wiki article, but go to wiki and enter Silvius Brabo. It explains everything pretty good!!!

[roy20056]

Stupid Best Buy, not having Enter Shikari. >.>

[Bolieu]

One of the only band that there isn't one song that I don't like! :)

[TTDitmanthing]

iron maiden vocal moment 0:19

[sinisterin89]

love the words to this

[legalizeit727]

@sinisterin89 It is good, but I think the lyrics to We Can Breathe in Space are probably one of the most intellectual and deep lyrics I have ever heard

[tvMutt]

similar videos: The Annoying Orange... haha :D

[TheFozz75]

I remember working the night that this was first played on the radio, I took my break, at the right time and rushed to my car. The rest of my shift felt effortless after listening lol.

[nizzlefwizzle]

hahah antwerpen is a city in belgium , i live in belgium and i thaught for a second that EK was belgian . :p

[Gamelord000]

1:41 - 2:03

The guitar in the background just MAKES that part.

[Sherb993]

[VampireLikeYouAndMe]

antwerpen, like the city?

in fucking belgium?

xD

I'm belgian and a few friends of mine live there xD

[afiVSblaqkaudio]

Actually it means "hand throw" the band picked it because of the story in the song, about a Giant who kills people by cutting their hands off and throwing it in the river he guards. The song is about a guy killing the giant by doing this. They learnt the story from a taxi driver.

[ChiiShredder]

@afiVSblaqkaudio And you know this how?

[afiVSblaqkaudio]

@ChiiShredder well, listen to the lyrics carefully to start with, and they also explain it on the video where they go through common dreads track by track

[domaiii]

Antwerp is THE city and all the rest is parkinglot

[zxsder01]

aha i went to belgium last week...saw a sign for antwerpen and was like :O :O :O

[benesindahouse]

@blink182fan10 Antwerp city, rest if mofo'in parkin' btw this song is fkn ugly, antwerp thug life gangsta rap

[blink182fan10]

Well no wonder you don't like this song.

[ilovecheeseguys]

[WTFfacekick]

[frontovic]

офигенооооооооо!!!!!!!

[kareemie]

I cant accept the new Enter Shikari..

i just cant..

The only song that is good is Juggernauts..

[Anilyde]

I agree, it's just.. Noise nowadays

[200lm90b]

me too...

[XxUnderoathXxx]

The old Enter shikari is mutch better :S

[DarthSivius]

much is without the t

[RandomIsThe80s]

This song,..makes me want to dance.

[doughnut33]

That was fucking amazing :O

[sickfingaz]

it sound sick! yea they are diff from the previous album. but that doesnt meant the songs are not good.

but i just prefer ES to sound a bit heavy like their TITTS album.

keep makin great music Ener Shikari!

[4thibaut]

belgium rules !!!

( brabo has a statue in antwerpen )

[Laubotje]

they suck live

[8yearsahead]

u prob havent seen them live then... their epic in every way possible... they sould just like the record

[Laubotje]

yes i have seen them live a few days ago at pukkelpop

[ItsNowOver]

@Laubotje outdoor = bad. indoors = good. I don't think Enter Shikari would've been voted best live band like 4 times if they sucked live.

[666Meshuggah]

Yeah, i saw them on the Take to the skies tour, it was amazing!

[Cemizle]

omg I just found the meaning for this song!

the song name is after a city in belgium

and its about this mythical roman soldier called Silvius Brabo ho asked money from people who wanted to pass by the river Scheldt. When they didn't want to pay, he cut off their hand and threw it in the river. Because of this Brabo also removed the hand of the giant, and threw it away.

"Now I was feeling like a total giant! But now it feels like Silvius Brabo has sliced my hand off and thrown it in the river!"

[Cemizle]

alsoo another lyric about the river shledt

"Now I was just doing my job my feet sink into the bed of the Schledt."

[adnrkf5a]

get that out of kerrang ?

[mallyx45]

no it was the giant that cut of the people's hands, and silvio brabo killed him and sliced of his hand and threw it in the schelde

[Cemizle]

ohh yeh sorry other way around x]

[JuanLeTwnz]

Can anyone tell me the lyrics from 1:25 to 1:30 after the word "chance" ?

These seem to differ from the lyrics I could find online.

[Mikulein]

I've got to rest, it's for the best, to build a nest, to take the quest. to be given just one chance, to be the best.

I've got to rest, it's for the best, to build a nest, to take the quest. to be given just one chance, to be the best.

[JuanLeTwnz]

You sure it's "best" in the first line?

No matter how hard I try, I can't hear it.

[ItsNowOver]

@JuanLeTwnz To be given just one chance ;)

[frenchjoce]

trop trop bon

[xIISparKzIIx]

fuking sick tunee !! yes man lol

[JirugaNnoitra]

this song sounds like keith buckley from etid

[ADAMYEY]

Wow i hought it was the gallows at first lol.

[daryl7441]

lol so did i :P

[xIISparKzIIx]

best new song, cant wait to see them in october

[Tobbyno]

Yes it sounds like Pendulum's Axle Grinder.

[HasinaHORROR]

love this song!!!

[NinjaShizzle]

this tune is te shit the brake down at the end is amazingggg (Y)

[NuggetCaptain]

I got this album on release and when I import it in iTunes the last two songs on the album

Hectic & Fanfare for the concious man (or something like that)

don't work, they crackle and break...

anybody else had this problem with the album or is it just my copy?

[peterallen900]

probably your copy, just download it

[NuggetCaptain]

I've sorted the problem out now, iTunes wouldn't copy the song,but my PS3 would so I transfered the two across from my PS3 to my PC.

[InFlDelightAndAngers]

its better like that :D

[iceromancediscoo]

I loveee this songg (LLL)

(:

X

[dashbi]

The people that keep on refering back to the album are a load of bells...

this song sounds like nothing else on the album and happens to be the best imo.

[Chrisjb1983]

How the fuck do you lose the "edge" in two years? Agreed though. First album was better.

[futurecomposer123]

I LIKE HOW THEY SOUND....AND I DON'T CARE IF THEY SOUND A little DIFFERENT....... =]

[HasinaHORROR]

Yeah, I mean, it get also boring when you keep on sounding the same, people change, music evolves

[coldsmoke666]

Used to like them!.

shit now

[ILikeRollerblading]

get a life you dick..

just because they have changed slightly doesnt mean they are shit you tastless bellend,

much love :) x

[coldsmoke666]

Fuk u cunt.

i was putting my opinion out there, why the fuck do u care if i like them or not, i think there shit now.

discussion ova.

ps neck urself. :)

[Xhelen2k6X]

yeah same!

[RandomIsThe80s]

I'd like to see you do better!

[face0puncher0inner]

same here like they just have a diffrent sound i just dont like it

[EnterShikariAVFC]

probably my fave tune frm the new album!!! tbh i prefer the older stuff like mothership etc

[eskayne]

the new album is waaaaay too preachy and pollitical i think if es were more subtle with there views the album would be way better cus if you dont share there political views then the album pretty much alienates you as a fan cus you dont agree with whats being preached

dont get me wrong i love es to the core of my soul and reach for the skies will how i will prefer to best remember there music

if common dreads were there first album they would of died a very early death

love you shikari

[kfizzle441]

i agree. i think they tried to be too... artistic or something with common dreads. i wish they would have just stick with making beautiful music. Take To the Skies is like one of my 3 favorite albums ever...

[DrlchknJr]

NA NA NA NA NA NANANA NAAAA!!!!

[Psalmsmusic]

awsome video!

[Forestgravy]

Serously sick bit of choonage

[Shroom146]

My Fav on the new album :D

[flamers1500]

the version on the album is a remastered version of this and has a slower pace to it, this would b better live than the ablum version :)

[IsaScream]

Antwerpen is a city in Belgium (:

We live in Belgium xD muahhaha

We love this song :p

[Modestjeuh]

uhu love this song :p

[walkersafcfan]

I thought it was "Antwerp" but owell... if thats right that its Antwepen I stand corrected

[Mikulein]

5 stars ;)

[nath6644]

take to the skies is no where near as good as this. it was just hardcore with synthlines played over the top. they have found their own sound, and its so full of energy and orginal but still mature

[irsic]

...take to the skies was awesome.

[williamc999]

totally disagree

[Hughesy16LFC]

completely agree with u man

[kyleauger09]

your an idiot.

[hoothoot66]

how do you get this song for free???

where do i go and what do i do??

[JakeGorey]

just buy the fucking album

[Modestjeuh]

idd

[Almostfamouseriders]

i dont like enter shikaris new stuff tht much its not them anymore they have changed tottaly

[DrlchknJr]

they're still different from all the other bands

[almightyjass]

sorry but i hardly find this mature. rou has now opted for an almost frank turner voice- a bit hit and miss really. in their first album their technoish breakdowns were impressive, now its tedious and predictable. i think i dont like it because i was 16 when i heard enter shikari and loved them. now 19 and simply find it immature and just noise. 2:11 for example- just awful.

[MiStiKTank]

not as good as the 1st, but i like it

[craigjenner11]

who made almightyjass a professional critic?

[tmp2186]

haha, well said

[almightyjass]

i really liked their first album. i feel their musical versitality has saturated and they are now badly trying to take on other genres. its almost a parody. they feel that if they simply shout over a heavy bass and snare it is a crossover genre. it isnt. pathetic.

[oceanavenue4]

this is far better than their first album, i hated take to the skies but this has alot more substance to it and is better made music. as for the lyrics, they are so much better in common dreads

[xxBananapancakes]

it's so different from the first album, but i still like it

[N0SleepTonight]

Tbh the start of the song sounds alot like Gallows.

But at the end of the breakdown it sounds ike pendulum.

Class song though.

[musicmakestheworld]

this song is the best of the new record closley followed by solidarity and juggernauts.. new album is so fucking amazing, just as good as take it to the skies :P

[XxMusicXxisxXLifexX]

:DDD i love the album

...ordered it like a week ago... never processed my order..

ahh well, amazing album either way :D

[kimberly483483]

hahaha i love this SOOOO much the song is great and the title even greater i live in a city called ANTWERP (belgium) but in dutch we spell it like ANTWERPEN =D fucking AWSOME ! =D!

[realdimension]

der sta nochtans in u profiel da ge van berlijn ze.. xD

[kimberly483483]

haha ja maar kwil daar wone daarmee sta da der xD mak woon wel degelijk in antwerpe xD!

[realdimension]

Aaah okay. Mja.. bij mij etzelfde verhaal dus. xD Waar in Antwerpe woont ge ongeveer?

[kimberly483483]

by merksem ^^ en jij ?

[realdimension]

hoboken =) checkt u youtube inbox ff ^^

[ClaireNJay]

its cos this song is based on a story they heard in antwerp lol

[zoobasisawsum]

Yessssssssssss. ordered There Album in yesterday. FUCKING PUMPED

[Melansimo]

OMG SO CATCHY I LOVE THIS

[ningav]

0:42 sounds like the start to a pendulum song :P

Anyone know if any of their newer songs are up on youtube???

[arghrach]

who's newer songs?

[BREAKBEATKAOS93]

sounds like axle grinder doesnt it!

[unfreez]

I like most of the new songs, pure class.

Wall and ZZonk ( or however its spelled ) are my favorite in my opinion

[keyowns]

This song is awesome, and I like it. But does anyone else feel like it's a lot different from the rest of their stuff on their COMMON DREADS (Not 'Take to the Skies'). Might just be me. I dunno.

[Krypt02]

Thought exactly the same. Don't like much else then Antwerpen & Juggernauts

[fatpenguin909]

nah i love all of their songs

[alidaman12]

*There

[alidaman12]

I wasnt here to start a sad little youtube war, i just wanted to express how i felt. you might think this is cool, and thats great, since everyones an individual, all i was saying is that it isnt my cup of tea. And as for shortening my words and being lazy, fuck you. ever heard of a 500 character limit?

if you like, count how many characters are in their.....

[saraphite]

499.

[alidaman12]

Gutted.what ever happned to 'take to the skies'? this is almost like 'the streets' with more guitar and musical ability.

It sms to me that they are trying to make their music more accesibleto listeners. but have they 4gt about their real fans.

they need to stop trying smthn new, and go back to their winning formula. This is really the best song on the album, compare this to ANY of the songs on 'take to the skies' and it fails epicly.

Says something when you see chavs listening to Juggernaut.

[SteelTofu]

your a damned fool, just becuase they have changed a little doesnt make them chavy! =/ and stop being lazy and type properly smthn! rofl

[jugiRULES]

yeah and your not in the band why? dude what right have u got to totally close of a band to expaand and explore other kindas of music

[Crazyk100]

u know the chavs? where are u from?

[WorldWarSheree]

You cant expect all their stuff to sound the same, it has to change, and this is not a bad change.

Its proper enjoyable =]

[kenney236]

has anyone here heard zzzonked? that will change your opinion of it. If someone has it, put it on youtube please :D

[grapefruitboy]

agreed. all the songs need some listening to before you start to like them.

[jamesx1x]

i love this song actually

just took some time for me to like it :)

[DysisTend]

gosh, when you are disappinted with this song... youre gonna hate the album

in my opinion is antwerpen the best song

[biderz5]

this song might not be amazing but juggernauts and the b side are immense  best heavy song i can listen to for ages... since there last album? haha

[xxScumbellinaxx]

Im trying so hard not to be disappointed, but sadly i am :(

[kamikaze90watermelon]

Have to agree. Not heard a new song that really cuts it yet. Not a fan lyrically either. Not sure how it got 5K's

[grapefruitboy]

Yeah the lyrics seem a bit... on the cheap side.

[elfwarrior0]

you mean that belgium is cheap hmmmm?

[xFlyingFlip]

I don't see how you could be disapointed all the new stuff is pretty amazing In my humble opinion but ohwell you have your opinion I have mine :) At least you still have the old ES?

[LazarusTheTree]

Hmmm, it's not bad, but it's not great either. And in your heart you kind of know that although it sounds all right, it's actually just shite.
