Shinedown - Sound of Madness Acoustic

[BreakingSoBe]

I was at this meet and greet and i must say it was awesome! Very humble musicians.

[sirrandomness14]

Dude that song looks like a bitch to sing, but somehow, Brent pulls it off! :D

[Ihateopp]

Is that a midget...?

[BrickChickens]

@Ihateopp No, Brent isn't a midget. xD He's 5'7".

[Ihateopp]

@BrickChickens That's still really short lol, but I was referring to the guitarist on the right chair.

[BrickChickens]

@Ihateopp Oh, that's Eric, he's 5'9". He's just in a shorter chair. Lol.

[BrickChickens]

@Ihateopp Wait, scratch that(I hardly know my left from right, lol.) That's Zach, he's also 5'7".

[SeethernSlipknotkid]

THIS IS A TRUE MUSICAIN!

Why I say that? His tone of voice sounds like his voice in their CD's meaning.

Very Very very little techology was used for his voice!

[MRV09]

@SeethernSlipknotkid I think you need new ears. He has trouble hitting the notes he hits in the album suggesting he gets assistance via technology. Sure there is the same tone, just not the same pitch

[SeethernSlipknotkid]

@MRV09 His tone of voice, there skippy..

[jfatz358]

@MRV09 That's why it's called "acoustic" version. O_o

[MattBitchenStel]

The guy in the blue...just let Brent sing.

[sultanofsick]

You know what, shinedown needs to find another bass player and put Eric on rhythm guitar.

[vandaman2907]

I like how Brent brings something different to the acoustic version of his songs...really refreshing...not many singers can do that...

[an08indian]

i think the guys sound awesome on the chorus! They balance out Brents freaking awesome gritty voice with lovely melodies. Freaking epic. God i love them. And this is a great acoustic version of this sound @cfeder45 !

[mesolovely1]

fuck ya here we gooooooooooo!

[TheObsidianRocker97]

I'm not being mean or anything but the ppl who say that zack and Eric shouldnt sing in the chorus are wrong because it's called harmonies every band has them now I'm a singer and I have them too even on the record those 2 r doing harmonies plus you don't have to be a really good singer to do them cuz the lead singer always fills it up. Just lettin you guys know

[werewolfkingsand]

@TheObsidianRocker97 ikr and same here about the band and harmonies

[18Kratos18]

Brent has to put a worst tone due to the backup singers in the chorus, the sing okay in some parts, but in chorus, please stop. Im not saying anything bad, its a constructive critic. Shinedown is now and forever my favorite band <3

[mishkacinco]

right hand , after 0:41  \m/

[rockerboi08]

dude eric looks like a bum lol

[drewavera]

wow, this songs rocks even played on acoustics. this band is a---(wait for it)---mazing....

[14guitarjammer]

1 person needs a shotgunblast and a kick in the ass

[TheDeathag]

I think you need a shotgun blast, kick in the ass..so paranoid... watch your back!!!

[ramses86]

I didnt know melody smurf was in the band!?...

[VicMourahimself]

Those guys are fcking ruining the song! Dont ever let them do back vocals again!!! I use to love Shinedown acoustic versions until those two!!!

[kmaybe123]

CANNOT GET ENOUGH OF THIS BAND ... ever!!! I try to put them down and walk away and tell myself I can find other songs or bands that "do it" for me like Shinedown does ... and once in a while some do ... but it never fails ... I always come back and they're all I want again!. :)

[xtdarkangeltx50]

quels sont les accords à la guitare en acoustique s'il vous plait ? : )

[mrglitchm8]

They are very good. but some1 was singing to high on chorus. =]

[GLAJ69]

i was at this show/interview

[LJMProject]

That damn smurf has a high voice.

[martinmorales1989]

One person is trapped in the sounds of madness.

[ItrolledYou]

Lol the guy in the left looks like a hairy smurf

[ItrolledYou]

Holy shit his Voice is amazing!

[misterc008]

SHINEDOWN F*#KIN RULEZ!



[sultanofsick]

the high-pitched singer is actually eric, the guy on the left.

[O0oSeArSo0O]

Yeah Brent your f*ckin Awesome... tell the two guitarist not to sing the chrous and the song will be perfect. Keep Rockin hard Shinedown !!!!!!!!

[puppye14]

Can't wait for tonight!!!! All Hail ShineDown

[ridgeracer49]

The person singing high pitched is not Zack(far right) its Eric (Far Left). I have seen the new band live about 5 times now. The High pitched sounds good in cyanide sweet tooth suicide. Not to much in other songs but i love this version of Sound of Madness

[brittanylove909]

This is from a 4 part interview... Do you know what happened to it? I havent been able to find it anymore?

[cfeder45]

@brittanylove909 i don't know, i just took this from that interview so people could just have the song and not go searching for it cuz i think this is the best acoustic version of this song out there

[werewolfkingsand]

@cfeder45 it is :D

[mlynng87]

The vocal POWER gives me chills> ;-)

[musicVamp527]

Is Brent ever not amazing? :)

[95Neos]

only one word to describe this, AMAZING, brent has an amazing voice in the acoustic versions of the songs, and live are an amazing show, simply amazing

[666Shinedown]

This is my fav song because is the 1st one I ever heard and then the Shinedown in me was born!

[99bigt99]

when they gonna put out an acoustic album????

[itsjustarash]

@99bigt99 if you go to i tunes you can down load several of the songs acoustic.  Shine down itunes session

[1MnBnd]

Truly a great band...no fancy stuff. All talent

[Shadow9357]

he's got that naturally good voice, no need for editing, acoustic or electric, fucking amazing!

[drcemarie]

just awesome son!

[hoover2588]

orange beany ruins it

[WWEFanChannel123]

@hoover2588 leave eric alone

[95Neos]

amazing. SHINEDOWN are one of the best bands today

[brittanylove909]

This was a huge long interview.. Do you know where I can find the rest of it?

[CookifiedCajun92]

that was amazing!

[AkaschaKitten]

they are fucking awesome live! saw them a few years ago with seether....you know its a good band when they can play almost any of their songs acoustic and still be awesome! ^^

[whatsupbato]

Is the person on the far right playing the guitar a dude or a chick cause it kinda sounds like a girl in the beginning/middle but a dude in the end

[brittanylove909]

@whatsupbato hahaha, wow! He is a guy. He can actually sing reeeeally good. His name is Zach Myers :)

[whatsupbato]

@brittanylove909 oh...hahaha my bad but he does kinda sound like a girl on part of the video...or at least someone sounds like a girl on that video.

[95Neos]

@whatsupbato yes thats rigth, her name is Zach Myers, he sings very good, but he sounds that a girl :P

[whatsupbato]

@95Neos Lol Well he/she is a pretty good singer

[666Shinedown]

@whatsupbato WTF? SHE?!? IS THIS A SEX CHANGE OPERATION OR WHAT?

[whatsupbato]

@666Shinedown lol I think so

[whatsupbato]

even thought I like shinedown i think the singer is kinda trying to sound and look like shaun morgan from seether.

[brittanylove909]

@whatsupbato He's always had that "sound/look" he doesnt need that :P

[whatsupbato]

@brittanylove909 Doesn't need what?

[brittanylove909]

@whatsupbato To try to look like the guy from Seether, lol. Brents looked like that since he was young :P Except his hair is naturally red. :)

[whatsupbato]

@brittanylove909 Oh well I didn't know his parents showed you some of his baby pics lol but Shaun Morgan and Seether are still a better band :)

[brittanylove909]

@whatsupbato Ha. I never said his parents showed me baby pics.. But i have saw some of his pics wen he was a teenager :) and thats an opinion :P

[whatsupbato]

@brittanylove909 Well I was just wondering cause you said that the singer for Shinedown looked like that when he was younger so I figured you must have seen some of his pics when he was a baby,teen,etc. Since you know how he looked when he was younger.

[brittanylove909]

@whatsupbato haha, yeah.. ive just saw pictures of his older bands.. before Shinedown.

[whatsupbato]

@brittanylove909 ooooooooh okay,I gotcha.

[whatsupbato]

He sounds freaking GREAT live,sadly you can't say that about other, so called "artist"

[Tranquil787]

i can't get enough of this version of the song

[BassAce27]

Best rock band around period.

[IEatBabies318]

thye ALWAYS bring it they sound just like they do on the album. No diversions like the popstars sound awesome on the albums but sound like shit live, not them they sound amazing either way!!!

[fistsofchucknorris]

KICK ASS!!!!

[shakjamer]

The only thing that kinda recks this version is, the way he is singing it.....he should be doin it the way he normally does.

[stairwaygoddess]

i dont really like this acoustic version. love this band though.

[rockstarbambi97]

AWESOME!!!!

[clr122]

his voice used to be even better then this. i think all the touring is slightly wearing it out. but this is still amazing.

[666Shinedown]

@clr122 he sounds diferent because he stoped the drugs

[aperkins187]

Some songs shouldn't be done in Acoustic .... love the song, love the band, hate this song in acoustic....

[pokerslut530]

Sick version. Must... find... tabs!

[volkirk94]

Going to see them on the 13th ^-^ cant wait shinedown is beast!

[addisonshinedown]

This is the best balance of an acoustic song where eric is singing by them i've heard.

[YouDecideFate]

Amazing.

[FooFighter778]

i know man awesome band love their version of simple man their freaking amazing

[thebigandscary]

isn't it wicked when a band dosn't need a single fucking computor to sound like they do on an album... i was a fan of this song, but after this vid, im a fan of the band.

[88super50notchback]

this guys are f@cking great

[codygraham22]

Maybe it's just me, but acoustic versions pwn every other verision

[theoman69]

this is fucking awsome...love this song...some how i dont think when i play this on guitar around the camp fire i dont hink the old folks are gonna like it....but fuck em..lol..YARRRRRR!!!

[Dragonslaya86]

Brent Smith = vocal God

[pokerslut530]

@Dragonslaya86 Oh shit I had no idea we shared the first same name. That's sweet! :)

[GlitzyGlitterGal311]

I agree. I think they either should've sang softer or let Brent go solo all the way through.

[Ride2thyTOP]

@ GlitzyGlitterGal311 This song cant be sung softer! :)

[chiefhowhow]

the second vocals kinda sucked.. brents got such an amazing voice.. dont drown it outttt!

[butlersoccer6]

They are amazing. Im going to see them in concernt in 2 weeks and i cant wait. such a powerful voice.

[TheTheBEAST]

This is pure awesomeness!

[Axunia]

genius geez ur so awesome

[295frogman]

Most heavy songs don't turn out well acoustic, but they did this nicely. Just this song and second chance make the album worth owning for me.

[Sanitaruim444]

@295frogman lol of course, over look the other great songs. :\

[Axunia]

fucking awesome I always loved this song now acoustic its fucking good

[BassMirror]
