[imaclay777]

@yongxingxu what are you talking about??

[crazyfistsfollower]

LOVE

[deadonarrival909]

This is EPIC! \m/

[JoeMorris7]

The singer has a better scream than the screamer ...

[lilmegaan]

Kinda remind me of Dance Gavin Dance.

You guys. Are pretty tricking awesome.

[dmgmsa1]

the chick is fucking ugly the songs awesome

[mattbuchert]

@dmgmsa1 who are you looking at? she's pretty attractive..

[nachboy18]

@dmgmsa1 nah man sounds so much more like Circa to me, jonny has a different kinda tone imo. while Anthony can go higher, still more similar than JC. DGD also went downhill when JC came back, maybe i was just so excited at the thought of another DBM, unfortunately it had nothing on the first part.

[dmgmsa1]

@nachboy18 yea i see were your going with this and (im a girl though0 lol but good taste in music though bro.

[RunningForFoo]

Swifty anyone?

[RainbowShadeFeather]

@RunningForFoo Yes. :3

[LukeLolsAtYou]

Reminds me a little of old Deaf Havana - good tune, great clean vocals and less refined screaming, which I like.

This is awesome.

[dmgmsa1]

reminds me of dance gavin danc.. oh there soo good

[karenanelson63]

so proud of all the boys

[nachboy18]

Anthony Green anyone? or is it just me...

[dmgmsa1]

@nachboy18 no anthony Green is to high pitched. johnny craig...

[EndlessEndeavour]

Kush...you vocals are crisp man...suhhweeet!

[ironderby]

clean vocals are amazing, screams need to be a bit better, but still awesome :D

[KUSHnelson]

yo this is jonnys bro, replying to TheAlbinoskunk, yeah and its firkin awesome too !

[TheAlbinoskunk]

7 members?? thats a bloody big band

[TheSmerdy122]

i remember when you did the 11/11 album and from that to this is incredible. i love you guys! see you soon! <3

[Bowtiesareinfactcool]

I love how these people who have their voices auto tuned and would look at an instrument like a foreign object are famous in the music industry yet people like you guys who are actually fucking talented aren't signed? *Sigh* The world of music confuses me so much. Hang in there guys, stay strong and close. You'll get their someday. You're all frickin' awesome. <3

[MarsCandyBar]

You guys sound great, similar to Tilian Pearson. Just the screaming needs to be a little better.

[hunterwolf20]

Just ... Incredible~

[KUSHnelson]

@hunterwolf20 thankyou so much!!1 <3

[seewhatisee2000]

[YiruZombie]

[poopoo427]

[TheDayYouDiedToMe]

Guys you're fucking awesome

i'll always remember the first gig my band played when we supported you ;)

[Ionaspheric]

Fucking love the video guys can't wait to see you all again see if you're better at guessing ages :D <3 x

[survivekaleidoscope7]

imo it sounds more like circa survive with screaming than dgd, either way, still really good!

[Rekkuzan88]

@survivekaleidoscope7 Yeah the first time I heard the song the first thing i thought was Circa and a skylit drive (with the screaming) but i also now see a little dgd since someone brought it up.

But i like these guys' style...hopefully they get the attention they deserve because they've got talent

[MetalFucktard]

whoever disliked this needs to be shot in the face, seen these guys live and they're fucking amazing <3

[jblounty]

Love you guys played epic again yesterday :)

[FaithInDefiance]

Dance Gavin Dance? 

[Valentine11537]

So this is what it would've sound like if Jon Mess stayed with DGD for Happiness...

[AlphaDog0127]

This is actually pretty awesome, keep playing!!!!

[19XKamuiX89]

i love the Screams !

[SwenglishMaplestory]

How do you screm like that it´s fucking beautiful

[0208nalin]

[CaptainDoson]

The screams weren't mixed very well. Good video and song nonetheless.

[feynor101]

awesome song dudes, nice video too, jess looking cool as ever.

[BoomFloof]

Absolutely sick song!

[PearsonMike]

i love DgD and i agree the vocals sound so alike. And i love it.

Kudo's to both of you, and the band. You guys have the talent to go far, its just the waiting game now.

But even if it never happens, thanks for making music that inspires me to make stuff i love.

[Thisisyourworld]

shit, love this!

[orangepeel80]

I am impressed lads. Seems like all the hard work you've done has payed off. -3

BECOMING APOLLO

[AlixxTheGreat]

Whose the girl in the vid

[theziggehpops]

how are you not signed? this is insaneeee!

[violetvbirds]

@theziggehpops one day we hope we will.

[TheFleaNo1Fan]

by they i mean violet of course! :L

[TheFleaNo1Fan]

Wow, My band is supporting these later this year, and they're insanely good! D:

[alexnotts82]

That's some impressively high rock singing, that's all it's about really, high singing, tight ass pants and two bottles of listerine for after the show. Very professional.

[durkin775]

been listening to you guys from the very beginning. fuck what people think, just keep playing the music you love and ill keep loving listening to it.

Im sorry i know everyone is entitled to their opinion but i hate when people try and take you and classify you as some specific obscure genre or they r just (insert band name)2.0.

Any ways I love you guys and when you are ready to come to the US and fucking jam let me know i will hook you guys up with some buddy passes all you gotta pay is taxes.

[violetvbirds]

@durkin775

we dont know who you are but much love bro means alot to us all.

x

[nietzsche69]

Chiodos 2

[DougLouiz]

the jonny vocals is so good and the melody of this songs is so beautiful!

[RD2006]

"Okay guys, Incubus are finished filming their video for Adolescents, you can use the set now..."

[gemmascreations]

@violetvbirds I F****ing love you guys!!! I know Jonny and Charlie the most, but havestill met the rest of you! you're Brill and I'm loving this video.

All our love and best wishes Jab (Gem) and Rich.......James sends hiks love from Tennessee also. he misses u all!! xxx

[Metalcortaku]

Other than the screams being kind of weak and not mixing well with the clean vocals-which are pretty damn sick by the way-everything is pretty solid. As far as the DGD thing, other than the vocals, I don't really see it. Honestly, I'm surprised that for once a link someone left in a much more popular bands video actually led to something decent.

[arcanis17]

OMG! my first thoughts were "ANTHONY GREEN!" AWESOME SHIT

[realityorfiction]

@arcanis17 lol i don't think that's a good thing, I believe a lot of newer bands are not original enough.

[CHAZ666999]

I have alot of love for this band <3 js.

[newman447]

Think the lead singer is quality, i actually have some of his work on my phone, from when he did a track with A World Defined

[oOpTiiKz]

Love this song(:

[vbirdjoe]

@bigpapajones...........But you have heard of me. cheers for the support guys x

[ToweringGiant666]

Why dont you all just stop fucking argueing, leave some feedback and then leave, rather than squabbling like fucking 4 year olds?

[violetvbirds]

also. i think maybe people need to just relax and enjoy music. not think too much into it and just appreciate it for what it is. we love what we do, we put a lot into the songs that we write. if you enjoy it, cool. if not thats cool too.

[violetvbirds]

hey guys. thanks for all the positive feedback on the video. Both Dan and Kevin have done a fantastic job with this song.

as for all the DGD stuff. i can honestly say that we didnt write this to be DGD. admittidly there are sections in there that have that feel. i guess thats just what we were listening to and enjoying at the time of writing this song! each song on our new ep has a different feel to it though, we just play whatever we want to play.

take it easy guys!

Sam.

Violet.

[robhcovers]

aha that guy's a douche. keep it up boys, proper pleased for you all xxx

[jjlikesmusic]

some people are dicks

[tidesofmitch]

Take it back about the song being good too. The chuggas and the dudes voice are irritating.

[tidesofmitch]

If you think the instruments sound nothing like Dance Gavin Dance then you're a fucking fool. That's just beyond stupid. The song is good, yes, but it's definitely Dance Gavin Dance in every way.

[xKananix]

amature screams =/

[iamtheboulder]

There's a guy on here saying he could, with the right tools, make music like this. So I say go on then. Let's see your efforts. Let's see what endless writing and recording and playing shows around the country gets you. If it's better that Violet's efforts, good for you, we salute you. If it's not though, I'm gonna rape your mum... and you're gonna watch.

Also, the Johnny Craig Jr. thing - ten quid says you look like an 80s Metallica wannabe.

[06lmicrob]

sack the screamer guy, you'll be better without him :)

[Joshhayman123]

@06lmicrob No, don't sack him, because then they wouldn't be Violet :)

[pSychOAtDawn]

The screaming and the guitars are interesting. I'd like to see how hard your drummer can go with the dbp.

[theEraser13]

haters gonna hate. ignore the keyboard warriors, just listen to the fans.

love you guys and your music.

Bigpapajones, if you don't like it, fuck off, fucking troll.

[BuryTheLadyBird]

good work guys!

keep up the hard work!

fuck the haters

BuryTheLadybird xxxxx

[LetishaLaurel]

i love these guys, and this band thats all im saying, if you don't enjoy their music fair, but don't listen to it if you hate it that much, negative feedback is annoying after how much hard work they put into it x

[jjlikesmusic]

HA, fucking prick

first off, violet aren't churning out a watered down version of DGD. The only similarities between the two is the vocals which are similar, yet have a complete uniqueness about them, the music behind the vocals is nothing alike to DGD and is violets own sound, it's refreshing to get a band on the scene mixing elements of different genres/bands/styles and creating into something fucking sick. Now, Fuck off, and come back when your band is Kerrangs featured artist of the week.

[Bigpapajones]

@jjlikesmusic they can't have a "complete uniqueness" if they're similar to something else, moron.

[jjlikesmusic]

@Bigpapajones i didn't say they a complete uniqueness i said they had a uniqueness you fucking prick, they aren't similar to anyone else in my eyes, not fully anyway. They have taken elements of different styles and incorporated into something fresh sounding so i appreciate that and the music itself is incredible. Open your eyes and get your head out of your arse mate, bands put there all into writing songs and trying to do this, so let them fucking do it and if you don't like it then fuck off.

[Bigpapajones]

@jjlikesmusic yes, you did say it and no scene band puts their all into their music, it's as simple as that. Nothing fresh here, rehashed bullshit we've all heard before.

[jjlikesmusic]

@Bigpapajones i know violet and they've worked extremely hard as a band to get where they are so you can't raelly comment on them putting their all into their music if you don't know them or what they do, you're just simply making a half arsed comment based on a bigoted opinion on something you have no right in saying because it's a pointless and fucking stupid argument. and they aren't scene. You are an absolute arsehole and i don't see why you'd even bother comment being a dick, w-a-n-k-e-r

[Bigpapajones]

@jjlikesmusic haha "they're not scene". okay kid.

[jjlikesmusic]

@Bigpapajones yeah, you're right, they're not. thanks agreeing with me.

but in seriousness, get the fuck off this video

[xmenluke101]

@jjlikesmusic they do sound like DGD musically, the clean vocals sound like Tide Of Man

but it's good to see an English band who are capable of doing music just like America does instead of just indie shit

this is is refreshing!

[GeorgieNewtface]

This is awsome =)

[1x0MetalHead0x1]

Nice, maybe like fightstar but heavier? Dunno, this is a lot lighter than most stuff I like but this is sick :)

[drummerboyrigley]

Lmao that guys a twat...

[DaylightSlave]

@Bigpapajones you have no idea. stfu and what do u say about "another rip off" ? show me other bands that are trying to be dgd 2 so hard

[Bigpapajones]

the fact that you just stated that early DGD isn't structured as well as implying that adhering to pop structuring makes things more coherent proves how little you know about music. Also, everyone who is or has been in DGD has shown great character and originality through their music, especially Kurt, Matt, and Eric, not just Will, Jon, and Jonny. Last, this band sucks, sorry. There's absolutely nothing original about their sound. It's just shallow a shallow recreation of a more successful band.

[HerEyesStartFires]

@Bigpapajones i never implied at all that pop structuring makes anything better. i think if you have a shitty opinion on a band, stop listening to their music and dont post because you come off as a complete asshole, YOU amongst many other people who just go around hating on bands should take a fucking second to appreciate the fact that despite there being little to no money in this industry that bands still endeavour to even make music anymore and there even is new music to listen too.

[Bigpapajones]

@HerEyesStartFires hahahahhahah, hold on, no money in this industry? these kids are a couple of crabciore kids making half assed DGD. the only reason they exist more than likely is to make money and fuck underage girls after shows. Learn to accept negative criticism, "haters gonna hate" that's a big problem with bands these days, they don't take the bad with the good in order to improve themselves as musicians.

[HerEyesStartFires]

@Bigpapajones and they do not suck, you clearly just dont like them for whatever reason that may be and should just not listen to music you hate, as i said earlier, you can say these guys suck at making music when you can write a song even comparable to this and perform it to this quality and have a video to match. until then youre just an ass who uploads videos of rain? and through internet access is suddenly a renowned fucking music critic! dick.

[Bigpapajones]

@HerEyesStartFires okay, I promise that with pro-tools and garage band, a few crabcore band mates, and some cheap effect pedals I could make music at the same quality as this. Next give me a good quality camera and a slutty scene girl to draw in adolescent boys and I can me pseudo-famous too! Okay I'm done. Good luck in your career Jonny Craig Jr., I actually like your band.

[hiddeninromance]

@Bigpapajones Have you ever listened to the blues? Think the licks in Dylan's Someday Baby came from him? Try "One Day Baby"...How about "A Hard Rains-A Gonna Fall" and the opening refrain of "where have you been my blue eyed son and its relation to the old Irish Poem "Where have you been Lord Randall my Son". I'm talking about Woody Guthrie & Leadbelly trading melodies on the banks of the Mississippi, it's a musical process older than time, from the origins of verse "Beowulf" to now. Who cares

[JCBETTERKNOW]

@Bigpapajones You're a shallow recreation!

[Bigpapajones]

@JCBETTERKNOW what the hell kind of insult was that? are you 11?

[JCBETTERKNOW]

@Bigpapajones Haha yup I'm 11 and my insults the kind that gets you annoyed enough to reply! YOU SO MAD! Maybe you need to get off your high horse for a second and appreciate hard work and effort instead of slating a band from your cave. Ciao bitch

[AshLadBoh]

HATERS B HATING!

Sick video guys.

[Bigpapajones]

oh look, yet another band ripping off Downtown Battle Mountain.

[HerEyesStartFires]

@Bigpapajones what a ridiculous statement. it is nowhere near as sporadic as downtown battle mountain, of course you can hear the influence of DGD but also other bands, if you wanna put a band down for 'ripping' another band off then i could find you 100's of other bands that have done so and that you probably bum off, since everybody is inspired by other artists hence we get NEW music. there are OTHER bands aside from DGD out there, what you meant was: oh look, another damn good band.

[Bigpapajones]

@HerEyesStartFires okay, you corrected me. a band that's churning out watered down DBM tunes is more like it. I mean shit, just look at the screamer, he wants to be Jon Mess so bad.

[HerEyesStartFires]

@Bigpapajones have you heard the rest of their latest ep? no you havent so you cant say churn'ing'. and theres nothing watered down, you obviously have DGD and/or DBM in such high regard that you compare everything with it which is just ridiculous. the guitar parts are nothing like swan, ok theres a delay pedal in there WOW. and i didnt realise jon mess was a nice guy and had a british accent... as you know real talent why dont you go 'churn' out a song better than this? dont worry i'll wait.

[Bigpapajones]

@HerEyesStartFires assuming that I compare everything to DGD/DBM is ridiculous. I'm comparing this band to them because it's clear to me that they want to be early DGD but clearly aren't talented enough to write songs that structured, technical, or dynamic.

[HerEyesStartFires]

@Bigpapajones OR they are also influenced by pop music which IS structured and more simplistic everything early DGD isnt. just because they don't show off their talent to its full extent and individually like swan, craig and mess doesnt mean they are unable at all because i know for a fact that they are. many musicians are more technical than they may show in a band, because the song is always the most important thing, listen to relativity and then the self titled by emarosa, perfect example.

[armedwithturtles]

like it, screamer sounds like jon mess though i wish the instrumental wasn't so plain

[rainebrookes]

<3 this guys :)

[snuupyfak]

(c) DANCE GAVIN DANCE ? :DD

[JosephItachi]

@snuupyfak Thats what came to my mind! hahaha

[LetishaLaurel]

yes violet! love you guys
