  • @JackWilliamsChannel Dude I know it was 6 months ago but you got some balls to compare Against Me! to Britney Spears when you have Green Day on your favorites list!!! lmao Go accomplish something in life instead of reaching for the top comment on youtube... and i stress the word reaching!

  • Watching live performances of a great Punk band with a shitty crowd is like watching censored porn.

  • If you don't like the music, why don't you go and talk shit about it elsewhere, you fucking dickheads.

  • Worst solo ever.

    But besides that, I like.

  • IF I'D WANTED BRITNEY SPEARS I'D HAVE TYPED IT IN. GOD.

  • hows that for punk rock assholes . im a capitalist pig bwahhhhahhhahahha .

  • These guys kick ass live. I love tht drummer, he's insane. Did they kick him out or did he leave?

  • @MJRLG He left to pursue a restaurant.

  • you guys are stupid, watch the video and shut up. no ones gives a damn about you ancestry

  • @CharlieGarciaMusic Seriously.

  • You losers in California don't know what to do once a kick ass band comes to town. This is the best band live and most of you stood there and maybe bobbed your head.. -love Wisconsin

  • they kill it live! the only band that sounds the same live and in studio, hands down

  • shivers ... nice song.

  • Damn this band kicks some ass. I'm extremely picky about music, but this is the best stuff I've heard in years. I'm new to this band, but I'm going to check out more of their stuff. They're very good live, they sing their balls off, play like it's the last song they'll ever get to, and I completely respect that.

  • @NickMotown Reinventing Axl Rose is one of my absolute favorite albums, I highly suggest it

  • Man this band can kick some ass...Is there such thing as a shitty band from Gainesville? I think not.

  • Hurr durr against me makes different music now that still sounds good. They done sold out.

  • soo good live

  • East and west could not agree So their generals gave a call and gathered at the border With guns ready, drawn and aimed each side was praying to a god to bless them with strength and courage it was in his name that artillery lit the sky on fire the people sang protest songs to try and stop the soldier's gun Protest Songs in a response to Military Aggression Protest songs to try and stop the soldier's gun But the battle raged on...... Sirens filled the air and the
  • All you Racists should probably shut the fuck up. Its a song idiots so shut the fuck up.

  • Ha I couldve sworn they were sayin " grotesque" songs.lol. oops

  • If you notice the song slow down significantly, they stick together well so you never notice it, but its a lot slower towards the end

  • People saying they play big arenas... this place looks so huge...............

  • @MrBackdropdriver Yeah, what the hell is up with people saying that? They played Chain Reaction in Anaheim this last month. It's a small place no doubt.

  • The Civil War wasn't fought over slavery. It was fought to preserve the unity of the United States.

  • @IRHS112 In return we lost a lot of free labor..

  • youtube.com/watch?v=UajVkzw1re­s

  • Dont care about what happend with the band i still love there messages in there music!

  • this just makes me wanna cry now, knowing what they have become.

  • And one more at joel2ksweet, just so you know I am not full smoke and mirrors, I once saw AM over the course of 1 week with Murder By Death, 7 TIMES...once in 7 different states, that is how dedicated I WAS...You ever get the chance too talk to Andrew Seward (which i doubt you will NOW) ask him if he remembers the guy who used to ask him for a hug after EVERY show through Staton Isle, NY and Montreal, QC...in '05

  • fucking iron leg

  • Protest Songs . . . oh Yes

  • definitely their last good song

  • i know exactly what selling out means, and it breaks my heart to say it seeing as how against me was my favorite band ever...but singing about being an anarchist and never selling out, ie see there documentary, and listen to the song reinventing axl rose, our arenas are bookstores and basements across an underground america...their arenas now, are just arenas.ie them playing giants stadium a few years back...and it breaks my heart, they had been my favorite for 8 years. real dudes = Lucero.

  • @falloftroy1987 if their message remains the same, which it has then surely them playing bigger shows is a good thing. as it means their are more peoples lives being touched by this incredible fucking music!!! selling out means changing your music and comprimising the art in order to sell records. AM never did this and never will therefore they havent sold out so im afraid you and all others with opinions like you are just plain wrong and thats a fact wether you can accept it or not

  • I'm not into getting into fights over youtube vids, but if you're honestly gonna sit there and try to defend AM then you can just get fucked...I have no problem with bands selling out, if The Clash never signed with CBS records we wouldn't even be having this chat. But the truth of the matter is that The Clash did not sing about never selling out, they ACTUALLY HAD SOMETHING TOO SAY, but AM sang...and I quote, "Our stadiums are bookstores across an UNDERGROUND AMERICA!!!"

  • @joel2ksweet Further more, I used too follow Against Me! whenever I could, going back too when I was 17...so I'm guessing this asshole has seen them recently and is trying too defend their choices, so you can just go right ahead and FUCK OFF...DOUCHE BAG!!!

  • Crowd is so dead at least imo

  • Crowd is so dead IMO

  • You retards don't know what selling out means.

  • the last against me! song i enjoyed

  • Wow they sold out so bad...

  • this song is called gay because we sold out

  • @MikeSkiera Man! Thats such bullshit. Against Me did not sell out. I'm guessing you say this because of the sound of "Stop" . . . have you listened to the lyrics? Also I fucking met these guys and Andrew drives a fucking Nissan Sentra and Tom was helping out the roadies set stuff up. They played in front of a crowd of maybe a 150 people. Doesn't really sound like selling out to me.

  • Tom Gabel kinda looks like Will Ferrell... no offence to Gabel.

  • @travisisbeastE id rather say he looks like Tim McIlrath

  • @kummunist666 there are some stupid people on this earth who want war, you are on of this suckers. But the majority is for peace. And all who agree with me Thumbs up.

  • if you want to terminate racial terms and labels that'd require cutting the cycle of hate at the seems and letting it collapse into itself. for everyone who thinks their race is special because of hard times, you couldn't be farther from the point. People are just cruel, and if you want to make up for the sins of the past all you can do is change the future. or eradicate the human race, both are unlikely. also this a video comment to a pretty rad band, keep up the good work Against Me! :)

  • agianst me! is just straight up pwnage

  • i just think its hilarious when black people say, you're ancestors enslaved my ancestors. I reply with dude, my ancestors where in more poverty than yours. I come from a bloodline of poor mocked farmers who moved to the states after the civil rights movement.

  • @rudy3m3rald plus during the civil war alot of white people fought and died to end slavery but people only look at the negative aspects

  • @nikel3161 glad to see a bunch of white men fought and killed each other to free the slaves so that those slaves posterity would end up fucking white women like they do today. And wimpy white guys fuck Asians because they have no guts or masculinity. Women have been brainwashed by the left to fuck niggers and have Obama babies. Go to the mall, you'll see many women walking their nigger husbands and their recently born Obama babies. The united states is done.

  • @Politics4Dummies and the mall was flooded with Asians, Muslims, Indians, and to top it off, white women with their Obama babies. After about an hour of that, I had to leave. My country is disappearing right before my eyes, and nobody even fired a shot.

  • @Politics4Dummies welcome to the 21st century you racist prick, america is a very diverse soicety. My school is very culturally diverse, i got friends from china, nigeria, iran, bahamas, and people down south, and my best friend is a lesbian (its funny when we both check out the same girl). Racism is a dying philosphy and im assuming your older cause most younge people in their 20s dont think like that. Thank god racism is dying along with your generation

  • @nikel3161 You obviosly are a gay white guy who takes black dick up your ass. It's payback time whitey for all of your years of slavery and oppression, and the niggers of today don't feel that they needed white guys fighting for their freedom, and so the nigger is fucking you up the ass, along with as many white girls as he can get. You are the symbol of diversity: the libtard homosexual white guy who has no clue and no understanding of history, and too young to know any better.

  • @nikel3161 and what you earn with that other than conflicts?

  • @rudy3m3rald but the liberal douche bags of today will say your ancestors are no different than republicans today that believe in low capital gains tax and low taxes even though they are not in the top 5% of income earners. It's the fact that you have the ambition to make it into the top 5% someday, and you know you will (although you probably won't) is why even though you don't make a lot of money, you stand up for the rich guys. It's just like your ancestors ambition to someday own slaves. 

  • @rudy3m3rald Ha ha agreed, I come form a native American background along with some Irish and both of those people we slaves and forced to live in poverty because they weren't French or English or Spanish.....fuck white people.

  • @rudy3m3rald The same here. Anyway the slaves were already in such condition in Africa, better be a slave in the Americas than in Africa.

  • @boredperson81 Actually, slaves were often treated much better in Africa than they were in the Americas.

  • @rudy3m3rald Not to mention African's had slaves themselves way back during the Kush Empire.......

  • @rudy3m3rald lolwut. You crazy? Your ancestors HAD MONEY. Not much, but at least they could say that they had some to their name. Slaves generally did not. If your ancestors were among the few enslaved Irish immigrants in early American history, I MIGHT agree with you. But no, they were not. Your ancestors were not chattel. Stop making excuses and read a fuckin' book.

    Of course your ancestors obviously did not enslave theirs, but still, "Ignorance is not bliss - it is oblivion."

  • @rudy3m3rald Who gives a fuck about anyone's ancestors? The only thing that matters is what we're doing now

  • @rudy3m3rald Congratulations, you're racist.

  • @penile1 congratulations, you're a fuckin idiot

  • White people don't peace, we want war!

  • @kommunist666 shutup. speak for yourself

  • @kommunist666

    could you forever stop using the word "WE"?

  • @kommunist666 not all white people are idiots so speak for yourself, and why do people define others by the actions of their ancestors, every "intelligent" white person knows it was f***en wrong to enslave people because the color of there skin and the way they speak, so why should we be cast aside like we supported it this idea the whole time.....

  • and whoever mention the K.K.K should sthu really, every last one of the K.K.K should be hunted down one by one without mercy or regret for the worthless ways they think....

  • Have'nt listen to Against me for 4 months, this got me back on the right tracks again! ;D

  • aside from those two crowd surfers, no one at this show appears to be having FUN.

    fuck you tom, and your shit lyrics.

  • Toms veins pop out of his neck intensly.

  • whats wrong with the crowd?

  • @myarseisround This was a little bit before New Wave came out, so no one really knew the songs, thus the 'wtf' reaction is present.

  • @myarseisround even though you posted a year ago, im just going to assume that this is the first song and this song was relatively new at the time

  • @iamblue337 i should of read the date, i'm an idiot.

  • @myarseisround they've been fans since Vivada Vis, and are dissapointed in how much they suck now

  • @kolopolop this song is sick bro i just got into against me like a year ago and im 23 but have been listening to punk rock since i was 11 and real shit black flag , 7 seconds, h20, descendents, strung out , minor threat , sum new shit defiance ohio btmi i can keep going if you want . im a og and guess what against me is amazing they are awesome yeah sum of the newer shit is lame i agree but this song is sick . OH YEA fuck liberals too btw

  • @myarseisround It's L.A.

  • @myarseisround Christ.. I wrote this over a year ago and it's still getting replies. Doesn't bother me, I get to watch the vid everytime someone replies :P

  • @loyaltallie...actually, I did read the description and they are wrong. This is definately Nickelback. End of story.

  • After seeing all the racist hatred on the internet, I thought maybe this site would redeem them. I knew it was too good to be true to think that any white people would be for peace or that this video would have any social significance.

  • Educated people who went to college know that slavery wasnt even that big of an issue in the civil war. Most southerners didnt own slaves and those who didnt were for abolishment. The issue of the civil war concentrated on taxes the north were imposing on the south to trade using northern ports. The south tried using their own ports but the north was starting mad shit. realtalk, yo.

  • @someonenoticeimdead yea and its a well known fact that we just gave black people jobs when they got over here , and they were late to get to work so much that we built a house for them on the farm . then they were such lazy ass workers that we didnt pay them.

  • @jelloshooter82 A community college class for American history can cost as little as 20 dollars in some places. You should try taking a class. In some parts of California where I live, you can attend a class for 15.

  • Actually the title brings its own projected feelings by said demographic.With the systematic destruction of the mid east by occupying western forces the song's title is highly farcical.

  • fuck. dead crowd.

  • A lot of white people where rascist in U.S. history. Duh. I'm white and am not rascist and am aware to global issues. To bad on a global level we are all responsible for wrong doings to the human race. Duh.

  • white people for peace sounds like a good trade

  • This band plays awesome on live, it doesnt matter which song they play, they play awesom!!

  • one of the best voices in punk nowadays!

  • AH...so this is the 'Nickelback' i keep hearing about...I thought they were much more polished than this!

  • @mrkevinhaynes You confused AM! for Rise Against, simple mistake. That's unless you haven't heard white crosses. If you have then, you sir are correct.

  • @mrkevinhaynes ....this is against me! not some shitty nicekback didnt you read the description?

  • @mrkevinhaynes ugh i cant even laugh at this. nickelback jokes arent funny.

    why?

    because there is nothing funny about ruining music.

  • You guys establish this song is about the Cold War right? Nothing really racist about it 'cept the title. Watch the actual video. It makes more sense.

  • people who believe in 'race' are racists. there is ethnicity and culture, with all humans of the human race being just that. race means immutable... only racists and their servants in conception divide man in that way... and only in the last four hundred years has this british distinction held sway ... read, the many headed hydra, if you please...

  • @ElucidateProductions It is true that we are all biologically the same, hence fucking over the concept of "race". I think "racism" is more a case of what I would call Cultural Elitism. Still bullshit either way.

  • @BlackHawk2029 Well naturally different groups of people or races are more likely to have certain traits than others due to how and where they evolved, so we aren't all biologically the same.. but how someone being different from you is a reason for hate I never understood. I mean hell people love cats, they aren't like us at all.

  • Hemma!! Faan va skönt!!

  • come back to tassie;-/

  • Besides great music, these guys are singing about more important things than breaking up, cars, and driking. Anyone aware of any causes these guys get out and support or protest?

    Everyone is Against Me!

  • I love these guys. I'm going to see these guys on Monday march 15 2010.

    I only wish they still had their original drummer

  • East and west could not agree. So their generals have a call and gathered at the border. With guns ready, drawn and aimed. Each side was praying to a god to bless them with strength and courage it was in his name that artillery lit the sky on fire the people sang protest songs to try and stop the soldier's gun. Protest Songs in a response to Military Aggression. Protest songs to try and stop the soldier's gun. But the battle raged on......

  • @ProtestSpp Sirens filled the air and the ground shook with war. Civilian casualties has been a cost that was predetermined. When interviewed for report victims pleaded in frustration. Their claim: That this was a war without reason. Bureaucrats enraged in debate to try and reach a resolution the people sang protest songs to try and stop the soldier's gun.

  • @ProtestSpp The Broadcast like their prayers went unanswered and ignored. god, like the rest of the world, just watched in silence. There was purpose to be served, there were fortunes to be earned before a peace could be called to stop a war. Protest Songs in a response to Military Aggression. Protest songs to try and stop the soldier's gun. But the battle raged on....

  • yes.. well done for telling us the lyrics..

  • their drummer is both a madman and a hot dude.

  • Great music video & great band

  • wow, look at tom's hair. LOL

  • word.

  • the singer sounds like the bass player from the dropkick Murphy's :P

    awesome band, awesome performance.

  • @funny00bunny Minus the Irish accent.

  • Good Call! He does sound like Ken Casey. :D They're both very influential people in the modern punk scene (Casey and Gabel), so there ain't nothin' wrong with it, in my mind.

  • @funny00bunny

    i guess, the singer souns like the frontman of flogging molly, what do you think?

  • @Speeser yeah i think so two. i always think that the front singer from flogging molly and the bass player from the dropkicks have comparable voices. so he fits in the group :P

    cheers

  • Ah, please don't compare Against Me! to flogging molly... Against me will tear them apart! Actually, I don't want to sound like a dick, so do whatever the hell you want. Just my opinion.

  • we dont compare this two different bands, we only compare the voice of their singers. thats all

  • Against Me! is my favorite between the two bands for sure, but give flogging molly props. They're also very good, just not as hard.

  • I like these guys I had not heard of them until I visited my sister in Asheville, NC ,earlier this year we saw them in this stupid little dinky bar, good show

  • I was at that show!

    I thought the place was pretty cool, fun night

  • superman.... why you watch that?? I don't know who is stupid...

  • stfu if u dont like them then stop searching for them on youtube and leaving comments cause u wanna be a dick and stand out. OBVIOUSLY no 1 that sees this will agree with u. Y? because people watch the vid because the like the song

  • Wow. Now THAT'S lack of life for ya! Watching a video with a band, taking the time to comment with such comments, for something you hate.

    Pathetic, lifeless, and just really stupid. Go get life, sho!

  • white people for peace . . . lets hope it comes soon : )

  • @sunnycloud69

    lol xD

  • this performance is fantastic, i wish i was there!

  • Great Song! This is one of my favorite bands. They are extremely under rated!!!

    They need to tour more often!!!!! GREAT BAND

  • when and where was that?

  • They're good live. They opened for the Foo Fighters where I saw them. They're fucking loud, too!

  • when and where was that?

  • my favorite against me song,

  • People will never get tired of posing by rejecting the newest music from their favorite bands.

  • I'd just like to know what the fuck your think you're solving by being a bigot towards another race just as your race was discriminated against before. I mean, Christ man, you say "white man must go", which implies the termination of an entire race. Congratulations, you're in the revered company of Nazis and the Ku Klux Klan, dipshit. I'll just try my best for peace. You? You're an enemy in that fight no matter what happened to your ancestors; hopefully reason will subdue your harmful ways.

  • @OriginalName90 death to whitey

  • @OriginalName90 The "white man" it's the pure racism,he doesn't meen to generalize,it's a metaphore.Cuz if we look at the history the "whites" we're racists,you cant dinied,for thousands of years we slavered blacks,kill indians,etc...And just look at the 2ºworld war. But it can also meen that the labels(white,black,etc...)must go.

  • @OriginalName90 FUCK OFF, its easier to minipulate someones thoughts than it is to speak them yourself, just think a little bit , dont listen to them if u have comments like this

  • @sk8nsnow14 He was making extremely racist comments in a belligerent manner. It's been a year since I posted that comment, so I can't recall what exactly was said, but it wasn't a matter of me manipulating his thoughts into statements more sensational than they actually were -- he really was that extreme. He used the historical events to validate racist views, I say fuck that. I appreciate your desire to keep things civil, and perhaps I did anti-troll a bit too hard, but we're on the same side.

  • you know the drummers leg is pretty tired after this song.

  • You're fucking scum.

  • I got a -2 for calling a racist scum? Really!?

  • i would give your mam -2

  • the crowd looks pretty fuckin calm.. wierd.

  • yeah its normal because its not a show live from montreal

  • I agree, people are fucking wild here when it comes to shows.

  • i think they're calm because this was a new song at the time. i don't think anyone knew it. i don't think new wave was out at the time

  • favorite Against Me! song

  • you need to dig a hole a live in it if this is your favorite Against Me song

  • This song fucking rocks

  • funny how by assuming that most whites are racist you are actually being racist.

  • Comment removed

  • @iuhuh10110 But hes white so its ok! XP

  • @iuhuh10110 Actually in that scenario it would be called stereotyping or being ifgnorant but racist could work. If you hated them for being white and/or being racist than you can be ignorant stereotypical and a racist or just a contradicting asshole :)

  • @iuhuh10110 but they are white? so that doesn't make sense....

  • Amazing. This is my favorite Against Me! song.

  • prooootest songs in response of military aggression <3

  • What amps do these lads use? Anyone know?

  • I thought he left to open a restaurant

  • He had already opened the restaurant from what I gather. The article I read about it said that he was let go by the band but partially because his heart wasnt in it anymore.

  • BOOOOOOOOO

  • i got into them through there older stuff bc my older brother always listened to them but i personally like thier older stuff better but all their music is good

  • Racist

  • compared to RAR it is

  • i also first heard of against me through new wave, but new wave is shit...older stuff is a billion times better

  • its not shit though
