Defiance, Ohio is a beautiful band and this is a beautiful piece
Fuck yeah! I have a share what ya got tattoo from over 15 years ago. I love this
My friend's band (hardcore) played with them at an old church or something but it was small. We've been fans ever since.
I’m from this town, and whenever I listen to this poem I can’t help but cry. It’s like a good kind of hurt? Like someone noticing the pain you’ve been going through and saying ‘I see you suffering. It’s ok’
Wow, I choked up when he brought back "i defy the devils of hell". Reading his latest book on Tribe this week. I am his fan now!
I keep coming back to this video. It’s amazing, beautiful, and an exhaling breathe of honesty.
This was just as beautiful as the defiance Ohio’s music, I’m from Maryland and every lyric of there music, and every word of this speech resonates with me
absolutely perfect.
this band and essay changed my life lowkey
Same 💯
I live in defiance. This touched me in a very weird way.
I discovered this band a decade ago while in highschool. Id never wanted to see another band in person more.
“It is the kind of town that will hold you under it’s tongue before swallowing whole”
This was beautiful. Thanks for sharing it.
love your work
Hanif this is amazing. I clicked because i wanted to hear someone talk about one of my favorite bands from my childhood, but i got an emotional and insightful experience. thank you.
This moved me. I love DO the band and can't believe I never saw this video. Defiance Ohio seems like such a sad place.
Defiance is pretty cool except the drugs. drugs is a huge thing. but it his getting better now. this is where i live.
@@jasondewyse7143 I love the band and the epidemic in town is pretty bad. Found a used needle in town on a walk yesterday.
@@jasondewyse7143 yeah I’m only 23 so I can only judge from my perspective but I’ve definitely seen it worse and it might’ve been a lot shittier before I was born but Defiance has definitely been doing better recently. Hell they even have a Skate shop, a new tattoo place, phenomenal record store, more great restaurants, and I expect the town to keep growing.
Defiance Ohio the band's tunes still sit deep within my being. These spoken words ring so close to home for this Ohioan. Thank you. Hari Aum Tut Sat
i love this band. if you havent heard nana grizol, their oher project
this is amazing
This is very interesting. I grew up 15 minutes from this town and worked at the Taco Bell there for about 7 months. I’ve seen a lot of junkies, a lot of potheads for sure but this adds a whole new perspective to the town I grew up around. I listened to a few songs from the band here and there like 5-6 years ago and this intrigues me. Thanks very much for uploading.
And taco bell, across the street from "Path" the homeless shelter. . .
We all live, in Defiance. . .
@@lisadurre8258 yeah looking at the comments close to half atleast say they’re from defi lol. But I didn’t mention it earlier but I was also born there as well
