WE LOVE ALEXISONFIRE NEVER STOP MY FAVORITE BAND
Awesome interview
My stepdad used to show up to like 90% of their local shows and he told me how amazeing they were.and i came to terms i will probably never see them live. And then this happens and now im going to a show. Its a dream come true
"people are still ravenous for it"
this still feels like an understatement
word
The only band EVER
So great to see these two together. I get the feeling George is anxious. He has a lot more riding on this than Dallas who of course has been wildly successful with City & Colour.
Regardless, I’m stoked. LOVE the new track.
George has Dead Tired which had gained some traction and of course there's all of the bands Wade has been involved in.
this is like a dream come true
THIS ONE GOES OUT TO ALL THE OLD PEOPLE WHO FINALLY GET TO SAY THEY WERE AWARE OF THIS BAND BEFORE A CERTAIN RELEASE OF THEIRS
Alan is the man. This was a great interview and perfectly timed w the drop of the single. Nice 102.1.
You could be like drake, not sure Alan is the man
They've got the inside scoop with Wade and all.
Alan loves interrupting George
The farewell show was one of the best nights of my life and it was a killer to know it was ‘the end’ topped by an emotional happiness by the kilowatt. Releasing a new song and touring again is fucking awesome long live alexisonfire
Those snow boots though.
So punk rock. Snow boots in the pit!
George has been slowly turning into Randy Bobandy for years lol
Omfg 😂😂😂
killed me omg
Boots BoBandy
Frig off, Ricky.
Wade was on the trailer park boys podcast not too long ago
Oh boy, it felt like an eternity for this to finally happen!
Best thing about this interview might be George's boots! Gotta love Canadian winter's! Can't wait for a new album.
George looking like the lost Baldwin
Nah he’s heavy set Tim Tebow
I thought he might be coaching a mid-texas football team... ;)
this frickin cracked me up
Meanwhile, Dallas looking real “The Aquatic Life with Steve Zissou” here.
LOL 😂
BRAZIL IS WAITING FOR YOU, GUYS!!
George is not one to shame his body. He's been rocking that Dad Bod even since the last time I saw him Live shirtless. Which was when they toured with Billy Talent that year of 2013 I think it was. He was fucking lit on stage, and in the end it didn't matter, his singing was on point. I sure hope he has the same energy now. The show is gonna be insane. I can't wait until I get a ticket for them again. These guys fuckin' rock!
cannot fucking wait to see these guys next month, greatest band of all time
Okay it's weird SEEING Alan Cross and not just hearing him
i scrolled away from the video lol
Great interview.
I like the part where George is talking about neural pathways in his mind lighting up before a show. I've been going to their shows for years and years, they are consistently one of the best live acts I've ever seen. I feel the same way when I'm in an AOF pit and they are just about to take the stage. It's electric.
Hell yeah!!!! Please come to Portugal !!! One of my favourite bands ever !!! AOF ROCKS
Never thought I'd see the day...
Words can't express how happy I am that these guys are back together!!
Hopefully they do release a full album! Would suck if they didn’t do a proper album and tour but any new music is good news.
thanks for releasing something that isn't overproduced and typical. love the minimalist instrumentation that lets the song speak for itself.
'At their own pace', something bands never had the choice of selecting. Think of it, the pressure of selling records has come to a point of genuine growth of having true fans fueling the artists. Despite the music industry's dire change, fans will shout to the public of who is deserving or not.
This is a genuine example of fans showing Alexisonfire that they still need this band, despite record or single sales.
Going back to 'at their own pace', this allows the creativity and flexibility of time to conjur what could be a formidable return.
Im stoked!
AMAZING BAND!! A South American tour would be amazing. #Chile 🤘🏻🇨🇱
Such a cool interview. So happy and excited for new music.
the only band ever never stop. keep doin' it man.
I want to see them tour with Every Time I Die and Cancer Bats.
Dude, they would burn shit to the ground lol are the Bats still making music though?
Holy funk, Everytime I Die, forgot all about them
Only band ever is back! Best day ever!!!!!
OMG!!! Time for celebration!!
SO happy this is happening
I'm glad my favorite band got back together
This is nuts. Love these dudes.
Wicked interview. Thank you so much for this.
And yes. I am still, QUITE ravenous for it. XD
great interview, wish i could go to the TO concert(s) in june...
U guys should get a static lullaby together, evergreen terrace and underoath on a tour...that would be epic..2000's coming back strong
The only band ever.
Alexis have such a cult following that they're in a position now where they don't really have to follow the conventional rules of releasing music. They just kinda make stuff every now and then and maybe they'll make an album or maybe they wont. People (Like me) Love the band so so much that anything is better than nothing and initially losing them was such a tragedy to music that now we are getting something back. Whilst they aren't "officially back" as Wade said, they are definitely not gone. Plus they already have more songs so here's to the conformation of more to come! HELL. YES.
My fckng soul is on fire! I caught on late with this band and fell in love instantly! I'm excited beyond belief for the opportunity to see them live!
Saw them July 2019 it was unreal
I think the last time they were in Sweden was like.. 2010 and I couldn't go. Then a year later they broke up and fuck me, I was devastated. Hopefully they will make a stop in Sweden sometime soon.
The new song is awesome, these guys can still bring it.
Kenny J. Pretty much exactly the same for me!!
I'm so GLAD to see AOF BACK
I'm perfectly content with new song every few months. Thanks AOF! I look forward to more. As far as Familiar Drugs goes, I like it, but I love the debut album and miss George's older screams. Now that you don't have to do an album and commit, think you could dabble with your older sound?
I named my son after Dallas Green. He was born this year. All because I love Dallas and Alexisonfire so so muchhhhh!!!!!!!!! So stoked for this.
@@Jaashua12 that is one of my fav girl names. im such a fangirl. ironically, my son's god father is named joshua wilson as well. :P
Familiar Drugs is a damn good fucking tune, so glad these guys are going to keep going with it. If someone has an idea that requires multiple songs to carry a theme, they can do it. If there's a single like Familiar Drugs that just sounds good on its own, they can do it. I'm so excited for whats coming.
Timeless band
Great interview. Greetings from Brazil.
Dallas parece um membro da equipe do Steve Zissou, hahaha.
Thank you for this. Alexisonfire is my Favorite ever I have a had ups and downs in my life and Alexisonfire* 💀
Finally gonna see Alexis for the first time in 15 years, I can't fucking wait
I love you Dallas Green! 😚

Me toooo 💚
I've been listening to you ,guys! : D
Need to see you guys in Nova Scotia! Please
whole lotta jazz goin' on

Alexisonfire like DFA1979, Torontoians support their local rock scene and hungry for more!
You ARE "like The Who or The Stones"!!!!!!
You are canadian legend already, as well as punk rock legends.. keep jamming boys!!!!!
Great interview 👍
Fantastic interview,0 congratulations.

They’re bugging. There’s no way they don’t know that they’re still one of the hottest band still. They are still that huge...I can’t wait to see them June 8th. They literally sold out in seconds. They’re music from the beginning, the middle and the later years is still very relevant. It still sounds amazingly good, no matter what year it is. I fucking love this band with everything I have in me. Their music has just something about it that could bring me back specifically to any certain year way back when.
Gold
love AOF
ALEXISONFIRE will. be the biggest band in the world ! Its got damn destiny. They possess a sound more different and more remarkable then anyone else
😍😍😍
Make the record!!
Take the burden and put on some pressure on-
You have second generation fans- go hard boys!!
We love you guys!!!
I double dog dare you!!
Come to Spokane Washington...... PLEASE...
Alexisonfire is super epic
They need to get on a bigger tour.
Alexisonfire 4 evah
So nice
George Pettit is now George Moyen
I hope they play more than 2 shows in the States. It’s been almost 10 years since they’ve toured here.
Seriously, I've been waiting a long time to see them
Steve Taylor calgary gets first dips/ I’ve been loving them since before I had children/ took my 17/15 year olds to see them a few months ago♥️ my kids grew up on them♥️it was beautiful♥️
OMFG! OMFG!
Yeeeewwwwww
maudit qu'on est heureux !
Welcome fuckin back boys
This Could Be Anywhere in the World was their best song. I feel like it put everything they're great at on full display, and it was just dope. Can't expect bands to stay the same, but just one man's opinion, they should use that song essentially as their platform for their new stuff. People still want to hear that.
Except that came out 13 years ago, they have matured as men and musicians. The new song definitely shows it.
Ehh idk man. Rough Hands was it for me lol
Those boots.... Canadian son!
Holy shit
greetings from México !!!
A huevoooo 🙌🏼
please make a record, please! oh my heart lol. please!
#theonlybandever
Let's fucking go
Mr. Lahey would be proud
how does this have so little views after 2 weeks......?!
DAMN I wish I had George's hair lolol
Kind of happy but kind of sad at the same time
"Welcome back?" Boom roasted
St. Catharines strong
Hell yeah!!!! God I miss the hideaway!!!!! And the Nac!!!! Here we come L3!!!!
I've not checked other comments so I'm not sure if this has been addressed or not. I enjoyed this interview, I just couldn't understand why you chose R Kelly as an example for anything? Or did I mishear?
Matthew P Arkells
WHAT?!?!
There became no excuse to play together. Ahhhh I said that day one
If KISS can do it! Why not!
when did Randy replace George?
Too many greasy burgers
om... breathe
My dad is there
It's funny when they say words like "house" and "about"
Jessica Icenhour a-boat lol
Dallas looking like steve zissou
There is a God.
