City Of Caterpillar - A Little Change Could Go A Long Ways

[Babyface6200]

sounds amazing

[kh7955]

best build up ever

[MetalNick]

Waaay back in the day, before YouTube, I found a live vid of this, one of the first City of Caterpillar I heard. Was amazing... Thanks for posting the song.

[XxXJames666XxX]

The free bird of screamo

[FreddyMercurysAIDS]

The intro almost sounded like the Unforgiven by Metallica.

[Herochanluver]

Oh my fucking god. This is amazing.

[Babyface6200]

amazing

[JustinBieberFoLife]

Sounds exactly like Godspeed You! Black Emperor with singing...and this build-up is much shorter.

[toothandtiger]

@anormalnick why should anyone skip the so called intro???

[anormalnick]

@toothandtiger I dont know..Just for the people who needs to take a fast listening of the song..Due to unknown reasons..

[toothandtiger]

@anormalnick I will accept this explanation:) But I think that everyone should take the time to listen to the whole song. Its not the same without the intro.

[JeromesDreamVEVO]

i just thought of the greatest username

[beatles61]

This is the greatest song I've ever heard in my life, and I don't say that because I like the band. I just recently got into this screamo genre, but this is by far the greatest thing I have ever heard in my life. The build up is so atmospheric, the only thing I am disappointed about is the fact the lyrics don't make much sense, but i guess that is also good, because if they made sense then the song would get old, but this is like an adventure. Thank god I found this I was getting sick of Slayer

[1damienbear1]

THE SUSPENSE IS KILLING ME!!!!!!!!!!!!

[xStarXplanetTV]

this song has a ridiculously long build up... extremely longer than Nirvana's -Anuerysm and that i thought lasted awhile... both have a big impact

[Gorglazon]

@xStarXplanetTV

haven't listened to that song...but yes :D i can listen to this build up for days and never get sick of it. imo it's the best build up i've ever heard

[inthepants117]

@Gorglazon like ways and to be honest for a 5 and half minute build up it doesn't feel that long to me guess its cause of how much i love the rhythm lol

[leftrightliars]

i think im in love...

[XxXLoveKillsYouXxX]

It's cool that they're us finally a band where the vocals are the background, and the instruments are not.

[somad91]

@XxXLoveKillsYouXxX lol guess you havent heard many true screamo bands hey

[toothandtiger]

@XxXLoveKillsYouXxX some of the older screamo bands not even used microphones on stage...

[BDean97]

damn that build up is amazing

[normtheclone]

God damn their are too many classic creamo bands. They are all amazing, but it is so hard to find downloads for this kind of music.

[krazykats2223]

I like screamo stuff, but this scares me a little. 

[pisleagradu]

Don't knnow what he's saying but he sounds like he means it:D

[KurtsHead]

fucking amazing, usually i stop listening with a build up like that, but it was like good fore-play before amazing sex.

[bIoodypingu]

The build up is amazing. Great band, wish they hadn't broken up.

[SonaDhathachDuine]

I had a dream last night and this was playing in the background. Then it was like BAM SHARK ATTACK.

[haffofsorrowsend]

this band is sick!!!!!!!

[Songremixer123]

thanks to the 4chan archive i found them

[K0nsumkind]

why this song is "A Little Change Could Go A Long Ways" named and not "A Little Change Could Go A Long Way"?

[kinghangabar1]

@K0nsumkind

>implying life has only one course

[112ALONE]

i love how so many of the "real screamo" bands have super long songs, but only half of it is actually singing-or screaming i should say :P

its awesome

[purplehaze216]

song starts at 5:35

[MrSuperBigFuzz]

@purplehaze216 Proboably but the build up is spine tingling ^^

[iTotallyObscene]

@purplehaze216 song starts at 0:00

[factsoutofbirds]

Yo im from Sarasota! Holy S! 

[kvltasfvkk]

"Handwriting starts to smell like saturated fats and penguins once again"

... what does that even mean?

[Gorglazon]

@kvltasfvkk

exactly

[KIDSTAKEABATH]

@Gorglazon perfection

[msh2thsoundofdeath]

@kvltasfvkk "What has search overload done to us....Bing!"

[iTotallyObscene]

@kvltasfvkk so its saying basically that writing his feelings down (handwriting) seems to be the only thing that makes him feel safe( like thick fat on penguins that keep you warm in the cold), and he's noticed that his feelings seem more and more piled up( saturated fats, saturated means completely piled up)and he can tell that it's getting worse, so he feels like he has to get rid of these bad emotions ( saturated fats, which are REALLY bad for you)

[MegaVietNam]

@iTotallyObscene that's deep 0.o

[BaxterD]

@kvltasfvkk inflated and fishy, fits like a fake suit. forced and repetitively similar.

[Persata]

@kvltasfvkk I think the song's about being on tour and all the madness associated with the long trips it involves. The lyrics aren't meant to make much sense, I think it's more about the crazy things that run through your head - "Why am I thinking of this right now!?"

[FutileExistence]

@kvltasfvkk

can you expect anything else from INDIE?

[technicolour45]

@kvltasfvkk it means the band is trying to sound clever without being clever, or it's an inside reference that only the person who wrote the lyrics know.

[crusader651]

anyone who likes Screamo, please add me as friends, or give me your msn and facebook. i am sick of my community being impossible to find, we must form tight communities like there used to be! we must use social networking sites to organise and make Screamo shows known to people like you and i who has no idea. hardcore is easier to find.

[xyugi0007]

@crusader651 So screamo becomes the new deathcore? No thanks.

[crusader651]

@xyugi0007 deathcore? what are you talking about, we need to organize to salvage whatever is left, you are blind if you can't see how disorganized and destroyed we are as a community.

[ANTHMX]

TRUE SCREAMO AMBIENT

[SKUDstorm]

greatest build-up of all time

[L2daO2daZ]

HOLY HECK.

this song is unfathomably epic and just amazing.

[renmakka]

Fucking epic.

[gideonvdsc]

yes i like them to but this not metal but it's an emo band

[lobzunpreston]

i hate using the term "emo" or "scremo" to describe this style even if that's how its supposed to be. I prefer to call it progressive hardcore :)

[rakeria]

@lobzunpreston It's no shame calling it emo or screamo. The terms during these times meant diffrent things than today. For example

Emotive Hardcore(These times) = (Today) Emotional.

Old screamo is not dead, but dying. Bands like Comadre, Funeral Diner and Ampere still exist. These bands started Screamo. With this said, I like all generations of Emo and Screamo and really say we should seperate it more by calling today's emo with Nu-emo/screamo or something. Hey, I'm a metal fan aswell :P

[LifevsMusic]

@rakeria dying?

ever looked at the german screamo scene?

just a few bands: Thoughts Paint The Sky, Trainwreck, Aplinist (more into crust..), Escapado, Manku Kapak. they are all slightly different to the old screamo, and more post-hardcore orientated, but hey, music allways develops, and i would call screamo dying, or even dead! :O :)

[rakeria]

@LifevsMusic Yeah its sad.

Whats more sad is how people hate emo these days : /

Great bands you listed :3

[LifevsMusic]

@rakeria yeah. exactly my opinion. i mean, i listen to alesana myself. they arent anything special, and i dont like them too much, but sometimes i enjoy them. and i think it shouldnt be a crime to lsiten to 'fake' hardcore.

and i think the fact that so many people hate 'scene' also death metal -> deathcore, just fueled the fire.

jep. :) unforunately, escapado lost their vocalist and manku kapak are very unknown. the others are likely 'booming'. :) will see trainwreck and alpinist. :)

[rakeria]

@LifevsMusic Lol, just call it Emocore. Will save ya sometime in writing and explaining xD

I like both death metal and deathcore. What seems a bit, umm, odd today is it seems you can't be scene and listen to emo and metal at the same time and not falling under anything special than into the "scene" stereotype (I'm living proof you can

Ah, shame. I heard ALOT of bands are doing emo-revival though, we'll see how it'll go. :)

[LifevsMusic]

@rakeria i dont care about genres anyway. ;D

yeah, thats good. because some metalfans are too 'trve' to listen to deathcore, though they enjoy it... thats dumb. nothing more.

i fall into the scene stereotype. at least my outward appearance does.

and i just listen to the music i like. i dont care about stereotypes, scenes or trveness...

yeah, its good, and i would call it revival. the genre existed all along. ;) the newer bands are just promoting the 'evolution' of the genre. ;)

[rakeria]

@LifevsMusic Are you sure? They actually sound like old time emo :)

[LifevsMusic]

@rakeria whcih band/s are you talking about?^^

[rakeria]

@LifevsMusic The ones you showed me :3

[LifevsMusic]

@rakeria evry single?

i doubt that... what exactly do you mean with old time emo?

i just know old time screamo...

[rakeria]

@LifevsMusic I don't know, I think they should make a diffrence between old 80's emo and todays emo.

like Nu-emo or something.

[LifevsMusic]

@rakeria 80s? :O

emo developed in the 90s, didnt it? :D

whatever, i dont think so. i dont mind genres.

i can imagine, that some people just came to old times because of the new times. i started to listen to the sex pistols after listening to green day. know what i mean?

[rakeria]

@LifevsMusic Post-emo arrived in the 90s :)

[146120]

@LifevsMusic

yep, the first emo like bands, emotionally charged music actually came around the late 80's as a result of hardcore punk. Bands like Fugazi, Embrace, Beefeater, Rites of Spring, etc.

[N3verShoutAlways]

@LifevsMusic it did come out during the late 80's to early 90's but was short lived becuase "screamo" kinda came in and changed it, and hey punk brought emo so gotta love the punk bands to sex pistols ftw

[taurino75]

cool



[gleeke]

wait for it.......wait for it!!!! YES!!!!

[Musicgirl2920]

This is very intresting. I like it but it's kinda long. I mean like almost 10 minutes. But its not about how long it is, right? Yeah well I like it. :)

[IhopLunchbox]

Beautifull... :)

[XXXMUXICISLIFEXXX]

This bands are the ones that deserve to be famous. This world sucks.

[ZeRoO4478]

OLD DARKEST HOUR DRUMMER BAND :)

[mrdrprofessorpatrik]

love the lyrics XD

[Yoetah]

I like this ALOT!

[Blackheart11249]

now your catching on

[Yoetah]

and to think of all the years I wasted

[Blackheart11249]

lol

[crowquill777]

where can you get thier music

[tylerarnold1234]

the intro for sure sounds like some godspeed you black emperor

[CrabSarcasm]

Haha I neve thought I would see God Speed! mentioned here XD

[sparhawk16]

Godspeed kind of creeps me out.

Don't get me wrong it's great stuff, but it just gets to me.

Like when they used in it 28 Days Later.

Creep me out.

[tylerarnold1234]

yeah i think thats what makes them different is they have this haunting, creepy side and then they can make beautiful songs like storm.

[sparhawk16]

Yeah it's good stuff.

I really like the song Terrible Canyons of Static and how the whole song is just build up until it just like explodes.

Awesome.

[tylerarnold1234]

yeah i really like this will destroy, they just create some of the most amazingly beautiful passages.

i really wish my generation was into this music more, instead of that shit you hear on the radio or stuff like brokencyde.

[zombieninja28]

Hey man how old are you?

[tylerarnold1234]

im currently 17

[IHeartHelloKitty1974]

haha rokencyde is just shit to get "crunk" with and abuncha dudes just fuckn around with music..they are no comparison to any of this awesome stuff.

[xjohnny760x]

@tylerarnold1234 I feel you, this is amazing music! At least our not like all those radio junkies.

[StaleMilk5]

@tylerarnold1234

Pretty sure you would never hear brokeNCYDE on the radio (thank god)

[Baitenator]

@StaleMilk5 yeah but so many 'alternative' kids are into brokeNCYDE though

[Sagit19]

I love that sound track!!

[DecayingProsperity]

I love this band..

Very Emotional..

I love it. >o> Lol i sound like a fag.

I use to be a huge metal fan, untill I found this badn which introduced me to other bands aswell.

[Gorglazon]

lmao i can't even remember how i found out about this band..and the funny thing is almost all the music i found was completely by accident lmao XD

i love this band and i'm still a metal fan haha :P

[ixdor94]

@DecayingProsperity theres so many good real screamo bands out there.

[notapanda2]

I never thought true screamo existed.

If it really does, this IS it.

[anexialovesyou]

I can never get enough of City Of Caterpillar. Just amazing music.

[crowquill777]

get into circle takes the square

[TheShnuz]

Really deserves to be in a zombie movie. Reminds me of 28 Days Later (my fav movie). The anxiety and anticipation just climbs with this song, I love it.

[zomgitzjamie]

I completely agree in every way

28 days later was a great movie

[1223dude1223]

@TheShnuz | yeah, city of caterpillar is very similar in their musical compositon to GY!BE (the band that made the song east hastings wich is used in 28 days later) I personaly think that city of caterpillar is a better band for switching it up with the post-hardcore stuff and having distinct vocals, but GY!BE (godspeed you! black emporer) is good in the fact that they manage to create such sound scapes and use the live visuls they do, they are much more expiremental aswell. both are good bands.

[Kungfugripmoses]

@TheShnuz It's because the guys from this band cite "Godspeed you, Black emperor" as one of their major influences, and thats the band that plays the real desperate sounding song from that movie :]

[MattVoltaXIII]

@TheShnuz Godspeed You! Black Emperor already took that spot...

[MayhemFan666]

@TheShnuz Hah,...yea i see that too with 28 days,..

[notyourmartyr]

Ah, good ol' screamo.

[SneakingWolf]

WOW.

[franza94]

awesome

[AlbertMondback]

Perdy.

[slkfwerhkt]

This really is a great song. My ears just 'gasmd. Yay for City of Caterpiller \o/

Earporn at it's best n_n

[Skramzero]

Fuckin' intense.

[Xcokedav096]
