The Appleseed Cast - Steps and Numbers

[theKCRoyalty]

Lawrence, Kansas represent!

[musicislife1909]

i love this bands drumming! you guys should check out Rems Floating Chandelier:)

[dadygee]

3 guys are fags

[MrKerouacJack]

LOVE

[HerbalNinja024]

these guys are way good. Really good live as well

[WRX500]

@dashofchutmeg yes I think this song is mellow. what are you trying to insinuate?

[SuggestedUsernameify]

Is anyone else annoyed, after listening to such a great song, to get that sudden blast of crap at the very end?

[exrevolutionary]

@SuggestedUsernameify the whole song is great,you probably dont like the ring war album by the appleseed,poo on u

[SuggestedUsernameify]

@exrevolutionary I agree, the whole song is great. The crap I am referring to is at 5:57; at the very end like I said. That is not part of the song by The Appleseed Cast, and it is painful to hear after listening to such a good song.

[DsHacker14]

yes.

[dadygee]

104 194 this is the best song ever. hands down...

[Jaytothecore]

I could listen to this song on loop forever.

[vanilla00fluff]

What's the song at the very end? Please tell meh. :)

[leenasunshine]

@vanilla00fluff  one armed scissor by at the drive in

[abbazabbawaa]

im declaring this my favorite song of today

[TheGamerThatDances]

TheAppleSeed Cast= BEST FUCKING BAND IN THE WORLD

[rubythedestroyer]

this was spectacular

[quicky2103]

It's unreal how under rated these guys are. They have been making amazing music for years and most people have never heard of them

[vanilla00fluff]

I love The Appleseed Cast to the death. <3

[SithMustard]

Why are we still throwing such a stupid word around? Put it to rest, people...this is GOOD TUNES. Leave it at that.

[TheBrutalD]

fuck genres

classify music as either 'good' or 'bad'

[subarkas]

brilliant

[hannibaloo]

I saw this live tonight! so awesome.

[edwardlover88]

oo I like this song

[TylerSnell21]

It all depends on what you think emo is. If it includes bands such as MCR and Hawthorne Heights, etc... then no, this isn't emo. If your list includes Mineral, Sunny Day Real Estate, The Promise Ring, American Football and so forth, then yes, this would classify as 2nd Wave emo.

[Solace2]

Absolutely correct.

Interesting that this band also used to be called December's Tragic Drive, a line from Sunny Day Real Estate's song Seven.

[latenightlunging]

@TylerSnell21 i think Sunny Day Real Estate, American football, the promise ring came way before MCR and such.. i would classify them as the first wave... or shall i say.. prehistoric emo? o.O haha

[TylerSnell21]

@latenightlunging I consider them 90's Emo. First wave started in the 80s with Rites of Spring and other similar post-Minor Threat bands.

[Rob919Gore]

is this considered Ambient Rock?

[steppsteph]

I wish I could play the outro

[BetterTasteThanU]

lame stuff

emo

not quite geysing, but lame

[likelullabiesx]

you're retarded because this is NOT emo.

[captainphrank]

your retarded because you have no clue what real emo is emo is not my chemical romance or bands like that bands like at the drive in and jimmyeatworld and the appleseed cast are

[Rob919Gore]

At the drive in isn't Emo either cuz

[captainphrank]

actually they kinda are :/

[elleniris]

yeah i don't like it much either.

[isamar223]

Your stupid this isn't even emo :|

[xxusernamexx]

@isamar223 Actually, this is emo. What emo was. What emo is supposed to be.. Until the media turned it into a commercial instrument (not including The Appleseed Cast) and distorted the origin of the genre into making money off of it. The emo now is just an "evolved" idea and mixture of original screamo and post-hardcore influences. Therefore, this is classified as Emo.

[crassisdead]

@xxusernamexx My thoughts exactly.

Also, this is my favorite song on either Low Level Owls.

[OMGlvl86turtlepilot]

@crassisdead even more then Here We Are??

[crassisdead]

@OMGlvl86turtlepilot Here We Are isn't on Low Level Owl, but I love both songs pretty much the same.

[OMGlvl86turtlepilot]

@crassisdead ph, i have it on my ipod as being on low lvl owl. what a good album name hahaha just noticed how sick that was.

[2010HappyFishMusic]

@xxusernamexx don't take this the wrong way but who cares what it is, and i would say not to fight with others but I am technically fighting with you. Lets all just watch the video and be amazed on how fucking awesome the bands are. I don't mean to violate your oppinion. Sorry

[xxusernamexx]

@2010HappyFishMusic I totally agree with you. This is my first and last comment I've ever made about genres. I hate the topic, as well. I was slightly drunk and now I am slightly embarrassed :)

[Guitarhealssoul]

@2010HappyFishMusic Damn you have a badass outlook on life. Just saying. 

[hotelroomsmoker]

I saw them play summer of '03 in denton, tx. I was on tour, and this was mine and my drummer's fav band...such a great night, my drummer ended up in the hospital. True Story.

[circleoftwo]

A great tune by a great band.

[ChocolateExplosion]

classic

[maximilian3490]

this video sucks massive amounts of donkeydick. This almost ruined the song for me.

[EnjoyDeezNuts]

Should the video even matter man?

[Projectrez]

WTF? There's no need for the rude and arrogant comment is there! I'd like to see you make something better!

[hotelroomsmoker]

wow you suck, go watch some tv or play a game with good graphics and no storyline.

[WRX500]

this is one of the most mellow songs i've ever heard..helps me get shit out of my head before i fall asleep

[purpledrohaze777]

Yeah relaxing music always helps me sleep when I"m stressed out. The effects of relaxing music on the brain is really interesting. It releases GABA into the brain, the same thing that Valium releases when it's consumed.

[BrokenEmo5]

hey guys try the song Echo by Incubus. That helps me sleep too...

[inasafeplace]

Wow seriously if this is the most mellow song uve heard in ur life than u havent heard much music... :P

[WRX500]

"one of the most" you're a tool, go die in a car fire

[abcusuario98]

lol

[FlyersRule2010]

hahahahaahaahaahaah

[dashofchutmeg]

@WRX500 This is mellow?

[drkraven7000]

@WRX500

Try Team Sleep. It was the singer of the deftones short-lived side project, but its pretty euphoric, and not at all like the deftones.

[sarahkozakk]

siiick

[chentex23]

Sigh...the doggy in the beginning is so pretty. Reminds me of my old dog...R.I.P oso

[BrownBeast235]

yes amazing band

[1988NTL]

Saw TAC live at the Abbey Pub in Chicago, of course they played this, It made some people cry. Hahahaha and the ATDI clip at the end is enough to make me start drinking.

[chentex23]

what is the girl doing at 0:48 ?

[eeeeelizabethhhh]

it's called poi. usually the little balls are on fire.

[chentex23]

She looks so happy doing it :)

[eeeeelizabethhhh]

She does! It looks like fun, I've really wanted to try.

[chentex23]

Dont get burned haha. Id watch.

[DrJohnsonMD]

Brings back soooooooo many memories lol

[posc323]

pure beauty in this song =]

its so mellow =]

[ganstamannirvana93]

This is a sick song. Does anyone have tabs?

[chentex23]

It would be kind of hard...knowing this is a math rock ish kind of band, like minus the bear...But if you do, be ready for alot of practice...especially with stops and goes.

[thahalsey]

does anyone know how to find a tab for "hello dearest love"?

i was able to generally get it but i just can't figure some of it out...

[xxusernamexx]

wish the outro would loop FOREVER!

[xxusernamexx]

as much as I love ATDI, the outro just kills this video.. Still love the video!

[brianshinsaccount]

hahaha was thinking the same thing...

[MrSockPuppet]

what band is that at the end

[SwallowMyScream]

it's an At The drive-In song

[LittleEmoBoy001]

lemme guess this song's about gettin old or somethin?

[epsilonAKAeric]

it was written in 2000, when you were probably still listening to NSync. hahahaha

[LittleEmoBoy001]

Assumptions assumptions.

[sanjuacharya]

Snap. . llol

[philhickle98]

Saw them last night, they were great, as always.

[sanjuacharya]

Beautiful. .

[FlorianGee]

What's that song at the end of the video when it says "chek out ...dot com"? I forget...

[lostatSea82]

At the drive in - One armed scissor

[thejew2212]

love that band. probably one of there best songs! do you like the mars volta?

[theraccoun]

mars volta is godliness

[lostatSea82]

I didnt put At The Drive in at the end of the video, and i never cared to much about The Mars Volta...not because i dont like them, just because i never took the time.

[johanthepirate]

ATD-I and The Mars Volta are both great bands.

[lightfighter132]

Check out Jeniferever, Hundred Year Storm, and A Northern Chorus. They all have a similar sound.

[717mienbao]

yeah, Explosions in the Sky to me sound waaaay influenced by the Appleseed Cast.  Actually too much. They're good but I'd rather just listen to the Appleseed Cast then a band that makes me think of them.

[jupas85]

Shawn14404936: Others bands? mmm I'm not know but you can try whit: Sad Breakfast (a mexican band), Brandston, Battles,

[deathtofishy]

this song is just amazing

[moosterjj21]

um does anyone know which album this comes from? i cant find it anywhere, unless they changed the title?

[lightfighter132]

Its from Low Level Owl Volume 1

[eweyewewe]

personally i found two conversations to be their weakest release (still better than most other bands though) i thought peregrine was a return to form. but thats like just my opinion...man...

[Shawn1440936]

Are there other bands in this genre?

[lostatSea82]

There are like 1.000.000 Bands in the "Indie/Emo/Post-Rock" genre, but if you are asking for Bands that sound similar to The Appleseed Cast on Low Level Owl its pretty hard to name any...The 2007 debut Album "Pneuma" by a band called Moving Mountains has been compared to the Low Level Owls in many reviews. Thats like the only record that comes to my mind right now.

[lostatSea82]

You might also try Logh - North, Jeniferever - Choose a bright morning, September Malevolence - After this darkness (all from sweden btw) or A Red Seasons Shade - The outcome foster detachment, but these records are all further away from LLO than Pneuma.

[brianshinsaccount]

if you like the guitar in this song, im thinking you'll like minus the bear.

[killfroggy26]

Check out: Explosions In The Sky

[sanjuacharya]

Love them too.

[hellojenny1982]

This takes me back to the 90's. So many memories. Love it!!!

[lostatSea82]

I dont like to disturb your memories, but this song was released in 2001...the 90s connection fits with the band though, as End of the ring wars and Mare Vitalis were released 98/99.

[JOJOFACE]

What are you talking about? Peregrine is fantastic. Incredible drumming, and really clever song-writing. You guys need to give it another chance. Phenomenal album, one of their best.

[thinkinginpictures]

I agree, great underated album. It needs to be repeatedly listened to fully appreciate it. Solid druming and atmosphere that shows a lot of progression. In my opinion, way better than two conversations. Can't wait for Sagarmatha..cheers.

[DKJSproductions]

i love this band so much, all of their music is great

[lostatSea82]

Peregrine is not as bad as some people say. With Ceremony, Silas Knife, Sunlit and Ascending, Song 3 or February the record has some great songs to offer. Its just different from their older stuff. If you like LLO and Mare Vitalis then dont forget to give Two Conversations a listen too. Its also not as bad as some people say and still has the "old" AC touch.

[LifeNotLost]

Amazing song. Low Level Owl albums are their best releases. Peregrine was definitely weaker.

[alitamf84]

low level owl, vol. 1 definitely didn't disappoint me! i like it quite a bit. i also checked out mare vitalis, which is also good. i'll stay away from peregrine! haha.

[alitamf84]

i recently fell in love with this song. i thought it was american football. i googled it and found out it was appleseed cast. i'm going to check out their other stuff. i hope it doesn't disappoint!

[rawcoyote]

disappoint is the last thing you will ever find with these guys. been into them for a long time, they've always got something just for you. promise

[drugolebowsky]

Ma che emo? Questo è post-rock!!! Fantastici!!!

[CIAKKA]

Bellissima...!!!

[imgonnastayeighteen]

best deep elm song ever

[Nocturne06]

Been ages since I listened to TASC, great band, great song! :)

[lostatSea82]

And now you listen to Kanye West?

[ImadouchebagNIlikeit]

Other than him being big whiny egotistical asshole primadonna, his music isn't so...okay..i just convinced myself his music sucks. Yeah, what are you doing listening to Kanye West?

[Nocturne06]

Yeah, as a matter-of-fact Kanye´s latest album was the bomb! But my taste in music is quite diverse, so I have no problem admitting I like Kanye West. I also listen to classical music, electronic music; trance, ambient, lounge + different types of metal. It depends on my mood. But TASC is great on a Sunday morning in January..:)

[ImadouchebagNIlikeit]

ok, cool. I was only being playful anyways. Nothing wrong with having diverse musical tastes :)

[Nocturne06]

No worries man, I am tired of arguing with "metal-heads" or "hip-hop" heads about what is real music and what is not. Obviously, there is talent in pushing buttons on a computer and making a composition, just as there is talent in knowing how to play drums. Just saying that music is there for everyone, why fight? :D Just enjoy, whatever it is!

[lostatSea82]

I listen to Hip Hop too...nothing wrong with that. Its just that most people come from popular music to unknown artists like TASC and not the other way around ;)

[sanjuacharya]

True dat homie. . . .

[CIB333]

who's the band at the end?

[relicdelic]

the punk song at the end is At The Drive-In with 'One Armed Scissor'

[lostatSea82]

First Video is Thursday and afterwards ATDI

[voodooguitarist]

I don't usually listen to anything like this, but I recently found this album (low level owl v.1) and I am floored that I really like it. I wish they kept this sound, since I heard their later stuff and wasn't as impressed. This is a keeper though.

[LeaheyHoo]

The Appleseed Cast rocks! We shot their show in NYC last spring. Check out my profile to watch the video!

[thecasper2]

people need to stop giving thumbs down when other people say 'this is the shit'. it means good.

[Guilhermewoo]

great

[FreeXo123]

wow..

[redshift912]

i have a set of 5 old canes videos( Chris Crisci of appleseed cast). interviews/live/acoustic.

check em out on my page if you want

[b1rdhouse21]

wow thats the best song iv ever heard

[asat777]

Thanks for posting this. I don't think Appleseed Cast usually gets the credit they deserve. Brilliant . . .

[iamemocore]

One of my favorite Appleseed songs... thanks for uploading this.

[rideonice]

very division bell esque.

[comethursday]

this is the black and white version of the video. i think this is the original. it's a lot better than the sepia one.

the band didnt make this, but some filmakers did. i dont know what tie they had to the band, maybe it was a promotional thing for deep elm.

[lostatSea82]

I dont know...i got it from Kazaa some time ago. At first I thought it was an original video, but by now I have noticed, that the younger people appearing in the video are none of the band members...so im not sure.

[rawkista]

is this the original video? this song is the shit!

[lostatSea82]

small world :)

[lostatSea82]

I remember seeing your name at the Appleseed Cast Board on their old Page...am I right?

[thenormal02]

that's right.

[thenormal02]

Thanks for posting this beautiful and very rare video.

I'm a big Appleseed Cast fan too.
