[StayGoldHC]

why is he wearing boxers in the bath tub? lol 2:07

[soberstevexxx]

Listen to liferuiner then you will find out how hardcore I am mother fucker. Or is that not pussy enough for your ass.

[ontheotherhandx6]

@soberstevexxx best comment ever. even though i'd prolly hate you irl, this made my day.

[ElBandit990]

@soberstevexxx who the fuck is life ruiner?

[soberstevexxx]

@ElBandit990 Its one word, Liferuiner and they are some heavey fucking shit. Check them out sometime

[soberstevexxx]

@ElBandit990 Its one word, Liferuiner and they are some heavy fucking shit. Check them out sometime

[CompleteAdoration]

@soberstevexxx Liferuiner isnt that heavy bro. Im guessing your edge? me too. if you want actual hardcore straight edge music check out Casey Jones. one thing that made me stop listening to Liferuiner is i heard they sold out. as in not edge anymore...pretty gay.

[soberstevexxx]

@CompleteAdoration yea i like how slow liferuiner is, they almost make groovy breakdowns, i adore casey jones, to bad they broke up. the carrier is another fav of mine, along with champion. anything with a good sounding fender amps set to have high mids i listen to. and yea im edge but havent all ways been so i guess instead of selling out, i bought in lol.

[WorldEnslaved]

@soberstevexxx liferuiner fucking sucks dick,the only good straight edge bands,are hardcore punk bands

[LifeUnderTheSwatter]

Ill pass on this grass.

[Skkitzzo86]

emocore bullshit, go listen to a real metal band if you actually like this bullshit.

[PESSIMYSTx]

@Skkitzzo86 eat 1 dick, girlfriend

[anormalnick]

@Skkitzzo86 emocore..hahaha..what a loser..

[soberstevexxx]

@Skkitzzo86 what do you consider real metal just wondering? you probably listen to like avenged sevenfold or some other shity metal band. i do agree , aside from the converge shirt, they dress goffy but i bet if you went to a show their fans would beat your ass in the pit.

[zacktillery]

@soberstevexxx Damn you're just SO hardcore man.

[jibonader]

Awesome band/song. Worst music video ever.

[inthepants117]

holy shit you can't base a band of their clothing... unless its glam rock of course lol

[neckrofeliack3sixes]

i like these guys, they remind me of himsa a little.

[crackwhorecentral]

Their drummer is wearing a converge shirt. yaaaaaay for influences. :3

[b0dysnatchers4ever]

i don't like Frailty.

[benj8706]

drummers wearing a converge shirt, they must be hardcore

[b0dysnatchers4ever]

@benj8706

[benj8706]

@b0dysnatchers4ever

[b0dysnatchers4ever]

@benj8706

emo doesn't exist.

people are full of shit

[TheJonMullins]

The banner are fucking vicious! Love them.. They stay true to their roots and destroy hardcore punk style! Keep fucken it up.. You have to admit their vocalist is god damned intense on every song!

[intothepit83]

Wow..... you all are a bunch of whiney bitches, aren't you?

[b0dysnatchers4ever]

[WorldsBiggestTrash]

the banner is awesome plain and simple and id love to see anyone try and talk shit to joey southsidehed fucking kill you.

[StickManMattz]

Why doesn;t he have any chest hair?

[nickers18]

who the fuck cares how they look. this is fucking great hardcore music. and they're from jersey which is a huge plus in my book.

[aceey2]

Those girls are fuckin hot

[Wowraider4life]

Dude at begining looks like lead singer of framing hanley

[guilfuck]

@vitaminb not tryin to start shit at all but i completely disagree with your defintition of "emo" and i'm not a metal kid at all just putting that out there. emo and hardcore are completely different maybe if you go see the big bands all the time (which is fine if thats what ya do) but at those shows yes it all looks the same but if you go see the hardcore bands who stay "true" to what the music is then they actually dont act or dress anything like emo kids but hey whatever your opinion is it is

[MJOLNIRMkIV]

So did they break up? I remember watching this video and downloading another song and really liking them, but I could never find their CD locally. I'll probably get it online. I think they're pretty legit considering all the BS in these sorts of genres lately.

[Daner019]

I never comment on these things but had to say that I know Joey and he is the furthest thing from an asshole and does not have a rock star attitude at all. He is very kind and generous and is very humble and down to earth. He is a great musician and a great friend. Meeting someone at a show when they are preoccupied with an upcoming set or tired from just performing isn't an accurate portrayal of who they are.

[grindxcorpse]

Dude, fuck you faggots. the banner is fucking amazing. Who gives a shit if they look like Aiden, they still bring the mosh. I would straight wreck kids if I got to see the banner. Go back to drinking natty ice and pushpitting to as I'm gay dying, and quit criticizing good music based on what the members look like.

[goldennugget100]

the banner sucks

[kalebyay]

@goldennugget100 golen nuggets are so much better? gtfo

[goldennugget100]

@kalebyay actually yes, i would jizz at the chance to eat a GOLDEN nugget

[kuramasbride]

badass music man

[THEJSS]

We had nothing to do with all this chicks and girls flipping there hair and shit, i dont know what this is supposed to mean or what it represents. this kinda happened on its own, we werent even allowed in the room when it was filmed.

[masterpowell2]

Nobody is even taking note of the fact that these guys formed back when you lot were still trading pokemon cards ... long before this whole internet-warrior scene arrived, and long before shit like 'shocktroopercore' or 'haunted arabs armpitcore' ever came to light. Back when music was music and image didn't fucking matter.

[Metallord82]

satanic hardcore? FUCK YEAH

[riseofravens]

beatdown at 0:57....i cant stop rewinding it!!!

[ragelover0068]

breakdown man...

[riseofravens]

a breakdown can also be called a beatdown...listen to Bulldoze and Nasty and u might understand better

[riseofravens]

i pisses me off how many people judge by appearance...calling it "faggy emo shit"....just because they dont have shaved heads just like the rest of the xtuffx wannabes.....U ALL need to go listen to Fascist Attitudes by Agnostic Front u might actually learn something

[sxexbennygx]

love them

[Funboy1615]

Awesome band and awesome song.....But whats up with the faggy emo shit in the video?

[xiondissonancex]

dude no kidding i was convinced it was a different band. the emo stuff completely ruins it.

[fukknsemperfi91]

just there looks tho. i kinda like the song. not the bitchy lyrics but it sounds pretty punky so its kinda kool.... lyrics suck balls tho

[liekbad]

The lyrics are pretty much all about vampires. Therefore they are win.

[fukknsemperfi91]

damn emo ass little bitches

[AJM212006]

good song. these guys are assholes though. think they're better than they really are. rock star attitudes.

[xsaucex]

your wrong.

[AJM212006]

nah i'm not. i've met the guys.

[THEJSS]

@AJM212006 when did you meet us dude? i gaurentee youre full of shit.

[boogervomitxx]

the drummer is my boy jeremy. lives in teaneck. cool as guy

[RANDOMstuff0]

omg thea ace!!!

[benj8706]

the drummer is wearing a converge shirt

[Entropyyyyyyy]

oh yesssss

[xiondissonancex]

hah i have the drummer's shirt.

[anth0ny718]

Bloomfield Stand Up!

[anth0ny718]

Loser v

[kasperx777]

gothcore

i think it should be a genre

then this could be hardcore/gothcore

i think i shall go make up more genres

[destroyreligion]

That sounds so silly.

There's already a genre for it. It's called Horror Hardcore. Not that they need to be confined to such sub-genres or anything.

[assman6912]

horror hardcore? wtf...are people just making up shit now?

[destroyreligion]

No they're not dude. early AFI, Ink & Dagger, ect. I don't really care for the name but I guess it has been established.

[XhavemyheartX]

Integrity coined that term hella long ago..

[SoldierPansy]

oh my god!!! This is the first song I've heard by them, and I absolutely love them!!

[Rhynome]

I'm not having a go at anyone's musical tastes here, I just wanna ask one question. The description says this is punk... when did punk mean this? Punk is The Clash, Ebba Gron, Toy Dolls, so on; at least as far as I'm aware...

Well... hello!

[LandSubCapitan]

this here would be the further evolution of an a style of punk that emerged in the 80s in the states called hardcore punk -

classic examples of the genre include Black Flag / Minor Threat/ Bad Brains /and alot more

[XhavemyheartX]

this is not radio friendly... therefore it's punk.. ya dig?

[EloquentCount]

You could also call this a hybrid of horror punk/metal/hardcore. Also known as "Horror Hardcore"-Dwid Hellion. Other examples of this sub-genre would be Crimson Spectre, Integrity, Septic Death and The Misfits on Earth A.D.

[poofterface]

lol.

[TheKiller17017]

They sound awesome, and their lyrics are great.

[SeanSadistiK]

True that.

[XhavemyheartX]

JSS is an amazing lyricist.

[psychoxLadyV]

Fucking great.

[zimgir5000]

Go fucking good.

[Sweetlovelydeath]

Its so cool to hear Polly Lifeless' Drumming on the new Blitzkid album (Anatomy of Reanimation). He gives such a energy to The Banner; and you can hella hear that shit on AOR. Fuck yes. Long live the horror (Whether Hardcore, Doo wop, Metal, Punk, i dont give a fuck)

[Bones2flesh]

this opening reminds me of the killwhitneydead's music video

Let me give you a hand throwing yourself out

[xKaylynnMarie]

Shit. This band is amazing!

[darkheartgothrabbit]

woah alright,who's talking bad about them ?

[thejonmaster124]

dude stop bitchin on the net the banner is fucking great

[chrisluke143]

jesus christ joey southside is a prick.

[GhostKid08]

Wow this is good shit!

I'm buying the album tommorow!

[meganxxMELTDOWN]

omgg the guy in the bath tub in the beginning it soooo hot!

[Vitaminb]

He used to sing for The Blackheart Eulogy, and new singer before they broke up "Summer's End". He is a scum bag though. He scammed people and stole $40 from me.

[infernosofa]

Lol Emos... Wow...

[Vitaminb]

Go look into The Misfits and you'll understand their fashion styles you retard. Also your interpretation of "Emo" isn't correct at all. Emo has nothing to do with fashion especially dressing up like a fag. If you know what actual Hardcore is and not Metal people call Hardcore then Emo is pretty much actual Hardcore.

[XgreymeldX]

the 80's news caster comb over is not part of the misfits fashion antics, you should 1) find a large set of stairs. 2) rub oil on the soles of your shoes. 3) try to run down afore mentioned stairs, before you think you know anything (at all). dip shit

[Vitaminb]

Wow you're sooo witty. You're so right because I was only referring to the hair. Your comment really got me good. "afore"? Obviously you don't know the banner and summers end at all if you don't understand their connection with the misfits. If you're going to reply to my comment at least hit me good or something.

[killbridead]

wrong on so many levels

[Vitaminb]

Are you replying to what I had said? If so please go ahead and write something more explaining why I'm wrong.

[Thegreen007]

@Vitaminb

"Actual hardcore".... Stop being an elitist over music. Theres no actual anything its just music stop defending and slandering genres and other bands. All that dribble your putting your concern into is everything that makes these genres distasteful. Get your ego out of your Ipod

[Vitaminb]

@Thegreen007 I wish I owned an ipod. But you are right... I am an elitist :P

[alpengeist19]

@Vitaminb no theyre definitly emo. it just doesnt matter since their music makes up for it

[Vitaminb]

@alpengeist19 Why did you respond to what I wrote with complete retardedness? Seriously you're being a jackass by responding with this. If you're being serious then you must have literary issues besides not having any understanding of the actual concept that is the emo genre. This band is not emo. I wouldn't expect you to understand much of anything based on your shitty music uploads to youtube.

[alpengeist19]

@Vitaminb jesus tits dude chill. you went and looked on my profile to see the music i uploaded so you could troll me? their music isnt emo. emo is shit like chiodos. i hate emo music.but they look emo.whether you want to accept it or not, emo isnt just a genre anymore. its also used as a word to describe ppl that dress up like they do.and btw half the music on my profile i dont like anymore. just the most recent stuff. but why does it matter if theyre emo or not? there music is good so who cares

[Vitaminb]

@alpengeist19 it sadly matters when people like you think Chiodos is Emo music (which they're not) and that Emo is an actual culture that you can associate to describe a band. The standards you hold would consider Cannibal Corpse as Emo and that is retarded. The way they look you would consider the Misfits as Emo too.

You also don't know what trolling is if you consider what I did to be that. I'm not going to even explain trolling for you because that would be an even bigger waste of time.

[alpengeist19]

@Vitaminb lolwut

[Vitaminb]

@alpengeist19 Simply put you have no idea what you're talking about and base all your information off what some 5th grade girl who watches MTV tells you.

[alpengeist19]

@Vitaminb yea your sister lolololol. wut im gettin from this whole debate here is that your probably emo. most emo people blatently deny it and they never accept the term as being used for people, not just music. i dated an emo girl and it pissed her the fuck off whenever someone called her it. emo MUSIC sucks ass. this isnt emo music tho. just the people in the band dress like it. and idk wtf you were talkin about with cannibal corpse. theyre like 40 year old men with long hair. thats not emo.

[ArsonideX]

@Vitaminb and @everyone trying to justify being emo...

your fucking gay.... emo is fucking gay... this song is fucking gay... and that fag in the video is emo as fuck... dont try and justify it because it just makes you a homo in denial.. and stop trying to make being emo into a "culture".... there is no culture there... just lonely childrem..

AND FOR THE LOVE OF FUCKING SATAN!! PLEASE EXCLUDE THE MISFITS FROM YOUR EMO BULLSHIT!!! your not cool, just live with it or kill yourself

[Vitaminb]

@ArsonideX First off you're a complete retard. Secondly this band sucks now but if you think this song sucks then that is explained by you being retarded. Thirdly anything "Emo" related with dressing up like a bitch I absolutely hate. And finally it is over the top obvious the relation between Misfits and The Banner but you wouldn't know anything about that now would you...

Learn to spell and find a better crutch word than "gay".

[ArsonideX]

@Vitaminb i would like like to start my response by calling you a butt fingering ass faggot... just the core fact alone that you are trying to defend this band makes you a gigantic cunt.. if you hate people that dress like a bitch then you must be into self loathing because if you listen to this emo bullshit, then you probably paint your toenails and cry when the world doesnt go your way.... fuck yourself you little bitch..

and why dont you find a better comeback than "learn to spell" .... FAG

[Vitaminb]

@ArsonideX Typical ignorant bigot response. No idea why so many people are watching this video then spewing out complete nonsense especially if they seem to have something so against it.

You're on the internet and obviously you want to be on top of an insult war... Why don't you simply look up information such as "emo" to gain a correct definition instead of exposing how much MTV you watch? I doubt you know much about music at all and listen to NuMetal but take 2 minutes and look up The Misfits.

[buckfurywtf]

@ArsonideX ILL GOUGE YOUR FUCKING EYES OUT TO THIS SONG YOU FUCKING PUSSY, LEARN SOME REAL MUSIC BEFORE YOU COME SPOUTING YOUR BULLSHIT ON A LEGIT ASS BANDS YOUTUBE VIDEO, also GET FUCKED AND DIE.

[doodlexbear]

@buckfurywtf tell it like it is, brother.

[elmuertoo]

stupid fucking emos making a good songs

cool

[unsung777]

These guys were pretty good. IMO

[xcimeonx]

this song is from Frailty

the best song on the cd is def.

The Father And The Wayward Son.

but this cd is amazing.

[xcimeonx]

actually my fault its from

Each Breath Haunted.

[CleansingScreamer]

i dont know but anyhow i like this^^

[raiseyourcups]

I HOPE YOU'RE NOT WELL, I HOPE THINGS AREN'T FINE!!!

I HOPE YOUR BODY DIES LONG BEFORE YOUR MIND!!!

I HOPE YOU REACH FOR HELP WITH HANDS THAT REFUSE TO REACH!!!

I HOPE YOU TRY TO SCREAM WITH A VOICE THAT JUST WON'T SCREAM!!!

I SINCERELY HOPE YOUR LAST BREATH IS MINE!!!

Sorry, it's just a badass song.

[kellsiexhollister]

<3333333

[AMinorThr3at]

Hahahha hollisterchick lisening to the banner? wierd.

[kellsiexhollister]

hahaha, not that weird buddy.

you should see what half my music consists of.

what i wear dosnt reflect on the music that i listen to.

i just saw greeley estates two nights ago.

and i went there, in jeans, flip flops, a white tanktop, and a pink sweatshirt.

i got really weird looks.

but whatever music i like,

then i like it.

[xSPLENDAx]

Greeley Estates aren't exactly the same type of music as The Banner.

And I don't believe that you got stared at because you're a pretty little blond girl in a tanktop. I think you got stared at because you're a discusting attention whore in a tanktop.

Enjoy your "I'm-diverse-because-I-hang-wi­th-mallcore-kids-and-dress-dif­ferent" mentality.

[kellsiexhollister]

Did i say they we're the same type of music? No i dont think so.

What I wear dosnt mean shit.

it's fucking music.

it was made so we can listen to it.

not so we can catagorize people in it.

Grow the fuck up.

[xx0taayxx947]

excuse me? don't fuckin talk to my fucking BEST friend like that. and actually she is the opposite of an attention whore, so why don't you shut your fuckin mouth, and stop talking shit when you don't even know her, alright? she is amazing, and shes right. Just cause you wear a certain type of clothing doesnt mean you can listen to a certain type of music. believe me, she likes a variety of music. leave her alone, she is NOT a whore.

[phantomplanet843]

arguing on the internet is like running in the special olympics, even if you win, you're still retarded

[xSPLENDAx]

Oh shit I'm intimidated.

I never called her a whore. I called her an attention whore. :]

And I never categorized anyone.

[xx0taayxx947]

well, im sorry. but you did judge her, smarty.

[kellsiexhollister]

chrissy i fucking love you hoe!

[CarnalSalvation]

Slap her in the jaw with your

"E-penis"

[purgatory100]

Awesome .

[kornfella101]
