I don't know, they were pretty damn popular back in the day. Once Mark left though, they just faded badly and never recovered. I don't think it helped that Luke was so different in comparison to Mark. Made it seem like a totally different band.
I like them but hey are like the Wish version of KoRn and we only know about them because Markey is J.D's half brother and they are from Bakersfield, California where KoRn came from...
i never even knew till now.. I bought their cd right after they played their song on the radio for the first time.. i remember the dj was a fan he said we were in for a treat.. makes sense cuz he sounds like his bro
People don't seem to realize to much that a vocalist can only do vocals that fit their voice. Him and his brother have pretty much the same voice. You cant change your voice.
I swear this song has so much more meaning in my 30s than as a teenager. I get experience will always play a part, but some songs go from just being cool to actually being meaningful.
@Ehab Fathi I heard he came back and then left. It sucks. He's very good at vocals. Grew up listening to him. Was hoping when he came back he would do another album
I've searched tons of numetal bands and songs for months just to find out who did this song.. and I finally found it!! my reward? discovering awesome nu metal bands I never heard
@@MrAllmightyCornholioz Honestly, I believe he just doesn't wanna play anymore. I read a statement from the band saying Mark didn't feel like being in a band anymore. If all those years ago they hadn't gone through all that bullsh*t, they could've been relevant til this day, making new albums. But their ego got in the way and this is the result. Adema became one of those broke bands that have to beg to get concerts in those sh*tty places no one gives a f*ck about.
@@JR-90 hahah, yeah Mortal Kombat Deadly Alliance was their ticket to fame... unfortuantely, they are pretty much forgotten and if you watch their "live concerts", Mark doesn't seem like he's into it.
Adema was my favourite band when I first started getting into hard rock music at age 16. Chavez's voice completed their sound for me. Sadly they kept changing lead vocalists and nothing was ever really the same after that. I moved onto other bands but still listen to classic Adema.

Elijah Magana listening to this again now it's crazy how much chemistry they had, maybe not the most creative or original but soo much energy, underrated
2003. Adema (self titled) was the 1st and then came Insomniac's Dream EP and then Unstable. You should check them out, they are very good but honestly their first album was gold. They had other cds after that but Mark left the band and the sound just wasn't the same :/
the engineers did a fantastic job to remove the whineyness from his voice (which makes him sound like JD + that he is his halfbrother doesnt help either i guess). For some reason in the single version of unstable they left it in.
mattrex94 I like how there are some shared tonal qualities between the brothers, mainly with the clean vowels e.g. "I needed the CHANCE" yet Mark has his own distinct style still.
Ryan Michael We are dinosaurs indeed. Unlike the nowadays kids who listen to all sort of bullshit, we know the time when having any internet connection was complete luxury.
dude we're the last of a dying breed unless you know the absolute pain of scrounging to keep up to date with music and waiting 36 hours for one mp3 to download, you don't know anything.
It's Jonathan Davis' little half brother. You're hearing the family resemblance. If you want to hear another family similarity, listen to Powerman 5000 (try When Worlds Collide); the lead singer is Rob Zombie's little brother and you can totally hear it.
Haha wow. I can't believe I never actually knew Powerman 5000's singer and Rob Zombie were related despite the fact that I heard the similarities. There's my new wrinkle for the day.
2003, high school, MTV. Nostalgia... :-)
+pdude1911 BR é nóis :D
And don't forget shit like Teen Mom.
também ouvia eles no ensino médio, mto foda.. varias lembranças
actually mtv was already shit by 2003

This band maybe didn't has too much popularity, but its songs are a great expression of Nu-Metal.

2023 and still listening to Adema!!!
2024 ❤🔥
I really miss this band! My husband loves Korn, so when I told him this was Jonathan Davis's brother he fell in love...
Riki Keener Step Brother to be exact
Shawn Trivett really?? I though he was his half-brother
KAL KEEL KLENCH - I'm almost certain you're correct, I've also heard that he's half-brother to J-D.
i never even knew till now.. I bought their cd right after they played their song on the radio for the first time.. i remember the dj was a fan he said we were in for a treat.. makes sense cuz he sounds like his bro
Half brother
2021 and still some of the best riffs ever created.
Let's argue
No argument from me dude, god damn awesome
Oh, you are so right in this , absolutely fantastic!!!!
nope
Fun fact the singer is Jonathan Davis' half brother
No argument here bruh I was bought this album when it first came out in 2003

Brings me back to Madden 04 and that Michael Vick cover!
Ok lest check the Nu-metal appearance pack:
#1 bald bassist ✓
#2 shirtless drummer ✓
#3 someone with spiky hair ✓
#4 intense stagemoves ✓
#5 buggy clothes ✓
milekhh don’t always work like that lol 🤣
So what lol it's still bad ass
@@DeGreyMedia there was comment about bald bassits XD (under "Boring")
Missing the dyed hair though. Mike Shinoda's hair was red back in the days lol

That bass is legendary.
Alt metal & nu metal for life!
I totally agree with you. All that Shadows Fall and Hatebreed shit needs to go to another planet. I love KoRn,Adema,The Offspring and Godsmack.......
Nothing against other bands. Just expressing my appreciation for alternative metal.
Meshuggapeth YEAH !
I agree with you.
Meshuggapeth No No I just meant nu metal is better
The 3 albums that had Mark Chavez in always makes me say Adema is my favorite band
@n n exactly & I lived those during school days haha
Exactly!!!
What happened to mark Chavez anyone know if he's in a new band?
@@Venomskye00 he just departed the band again without a clear reason, he's not in a band at the moment
@Ehab Fathi I heard he came back and then left. It sucks. He's very good at vocals. Grew up listening to him. Was hoping when he came back he would do another album
ADEMA to me is an under rated band. They are awesome!!
Summer 2003! Wish I could go back...
Well. I'm behind. I just discovered this band tonight and now that I know this is Johnathan Davis's bro. I'm even more in love!
Wow your so many many years behind
I love that he sounds like his brother! I remember when this song came out - I totally thought it was Korn! haha Love both Korn & Adema!
Agreed 🤘🛀
It's Insane bless there mother!!

So, what bands you discovered ?
followthereaper665 all i could remember was the intro couldnt find the song for months until i remembered "So Unstable" 😂
Dropout kings. CLAWFINGER. E town concrete. P.o.d to name some
Adema is one of the best Nu-Metal bands beside Korn, (early) Linkin Park, Limp Bizkit, P.O.D. For me the band died after Mark leaved the band
Everyone loved Mark. Unfortunately, he be having drama with the band so he left once again in 2019

Maybe to some extent! But New Music Can Be Good Too!!!!
check out northlane... closest thing to adema!
There was good music in the 2000s??? Man are you young!
Agreed.... Although korn have kept there sound very close.
Ah man , you guys needs broaden your musical horizons😂

hello childhood! welcome back
And I'm watching in 2016 ... I miss that time .. :3
Betina Forbeck no one makes music like this anymore
Really! It was a golden age, great musics!
Flaw was such a great band! They were a little underrated in SoCal, but I loved them nonetheless!
Betina Forbeck so true :(
Betina Forbeck, yes! such a great time for music, I really miss it! if you know any music like this today please tell me haha
This song + Madden NFL 2004 = Epic
I love traditional metal as much as any metalhead. That being said, I love Nu Metal. Without them, metal would have never come back.
Adema is the most underrated band. NO questions asked
Not truth.if u think they are underrated then check bands like switched or unloco
After 20 years this song stills rocking!!!
This was high school music, i loved it and i love it now, just can't believe i'm so old now lol
I know, right?? TT__TT
same here bro
yep!! I can relate!
Tantas lembranças . que doi as vezes meu deus que mundo é esse 😢
Madden NFL 2004 brought me here.
Hell yea lol
One of My second favorite songs on that game
Bruno Rozas Franco That game easily had the best sound track of any Madden game
I did not remember this song name. I tried google about "game madden nfl song heavy" which could let me listen here.
This, Chapter Four by A7X, and Crashing by Unloco! Best 3 songs from that game!
bring me back my 90x-20x fuck the new shit!
Adema is a winner.
Always will and forever be my favorite Adema song
This shit is still awesome. Good memories of college and my friends and our love of nu metal.
How bout 10 Years later
@@isaac2bands It’s still awesome!
Your politeness and intelligent arguments baffle me.

I still love the original line up members for this band they were never the same after Mark chavez left.
Que buena canción recuerdos del buen MTV en sus buenos tiempos..😎🖤🔥🎵🎶🇵🇪🤘🏻
Mark + Adema = epic win.
Arguably best song on Madden 04
When Music Use Be Badass
My guilty pleasure... but screw it, this is my childhood and this music rocks
Taylor Bradford hell yeah, nice pic btw.
Saudades desse som....!
dat beard banging :P
amo 💚🤘
Eu tmb
Eu também gosto muito de adema
Damn, haven’t heard this song in almost 15 years… I remember when I dressed like the genre, now I’m old as fuck lol
The bassist's chin beard is just as legendary as I remembered.
Adema never disappoints us
i wish mark would go back to Adema...theres still people that care about this band...us Adema fans need to support them a lot more!!!
Elijah Magana listening to this again now it's crazy how much chemistry they had, maybe not the most creative or original but soo much energy, underrated
im trapped, and we can't get along. story of my relationship. lol
You have a siamese twin?
When music WAS MUSIC
Madden 04!!!! Such a great song 🤘
0:44 Adema predicts the shattering of your iPhone.
It's rare that the little brother rocks harder than the big brother
no way. JD will always rock harder
Max Payne fail
Look how PM5k is doin' it 🙉
I hate the way you make me feel,
I keep coming back, I never get healed!
15 years later and its still freaking awesome
🔜 20 years later
Chad Was Awesome As The Singer Of Adema Sure The Newest Singer Is good But Nothing Beats A Davis Especially Jonathan Davis's Relative.
this song is a classic i dont care what anyone says lol// who is listening in 2017??
2018 and still listening xD
2018 more like.
2018
Still listening
2019
When Adema was good,I tried listening to their newer music and couldn`t they need this singer singing again.
I had their song So Fortunate on my iPod for years but I never thought to look up this band til now. Glad I did.
Great song to work out to.
Música muito boa!
Man, who doesn't have a relationship in their past that is PERFECTLY described by this song?
Wow what a time machine this is. This song has such a strong hook in the chorus.
Still an amazing song!
Madden 04!!!!!

why did mark chavez leave again
Because he was so unstable
@@AVoxintheVoid 3 times. 😑🙄
As an Orgy and Adema fan, I'm glad Ryan took over vocals and killing it! 🤘🤘
Nu Metal !
I would hope so considering the lead singer is johnathan davies's half brother
Post-Grunge the same genre as Trustcompany Godsmack Staind Limp Bizkit Nickelback Finger Eleven Fuel Linkin Park Saliva Puddle Of Mudd Korn
2020 during a pandemic and still listening to Adema!!!!
Love this guys...
Wow. When did this come out? Not bad. Lost these guys after the first album.
2003. Adema (self titled) was the 1st and then came Insomniac's Dream EP and then Unstable. You should check them out, they are very good but honestly their first album was gold. They had other cds after that but Mark left the band and the sound just wasn't the same :/
2:08
Just got put on to them today yeah definitely feel the energy from them 🤘🏽🔥
Brings me back to madden 2003
Sounds a little like Korn!
The lead singer is the half-brother of Korn's singer
And both from Bakersfield
They don't ever talk, and barley get alone..
the engineers did a fantastic job to remove the whineyness from his voice (which makes him sound like JD + that he is his halfbrother doesnt help either i guess). For some reason in the single version of unstable they left it in.
sounds like Mix of Korn and Static-X
Madden 2004
yup
Wonderful song!!
Damn, I miss the Nu-Metal era so much.
Very KoRnish :D
I know!
Josh Keith Dude I can't believe that, total mind fuck

yeah I find out that the lead singer is the half brother of jonathan davis
saw these guys live when i was younger....... kick ass show with powerman 5000
wooo.. brings me BACK
