Jake's voice gets really worn down by the end (this being the last song of the concert) due to the strain he puts his throat under when he screams. technically it makes sense but yeah Jake honestly doesn't sound as good as studio, but you have to give him a break
+Jude Flynn Oh no, believe me... No hate towards Jake at all. Like I said in the original comment, his screams still sound amazing. I was just commenting on the fact that Dustin's live screams literally sound EXACTLY like they do on the recordings. Not typically something you hear nowadays.
Dustin has few moments of screaming and Jake is screaming the entire time. Jake probably has to adapt in order to preserve his voice where Dustin can keep doing the same thing throughout every performance.
Georgia, Tbilisi 15.09.2020. 10:42 pm. sitting in the public park with my friends enjoying the last warm days and listening to this masterpeace. Love abr. Abr for life . Abr for life!!!!
This song! It shows so much musicianship. The arrangement primarily. The double voices playing off each other in pitch, contrasting beautifully. The triple guitar setup with Dustin getting involved, it just completes the texture having the third guitar hold that chord sequence underneath the two leads, that JB is a master. The insightful and almost inspiratoinal tone he was trying to get across when writing this for live performances was captured perfectly. Well played August Burns Red, I love your music!
Seek the Lord and you will find him. God bless has blessed this band for always focusing back to the cross. Amen for that. He has made all provisons for them, and their road will hold a much greater treasure at the end than most others who take credit in themselves.
Hey they worked their asses off to get where they are today. Don't take that away from them, it was their hard work, talent and the support of their fans made them who they are. I don't see a god buying their records or merch.
Mikhail Baeck So this is a long response so buckle your seat belt cuz imma take you for a ride. So before sin entered the world life was perfect yeah? No sin and Adam and Eve lived in paradise in The Garden of Eden. But after the fall of man, sin entered the world and we were separated from God. Being a perfect being above us, God cannot be in the presence of sin. So we were separated from him. Now since we were separated from him and cast out into the world as sinners, bad things happen. Without sin in the world there would be no hunger no poverty or pretty much anything bad. Follow me so far? Sin is the cause of every man's struggle, because we are separated from God and perfection. So that is why there are starving children in Africa (and why just mention children, adults need food to haha). The bible says that "But do not let this one fact escape your notice, beloved, that with the Lord one day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years like one day. The Lord is not slow about His promise, as some count slowness, but is patient toward you, not wishing for any to perish but for all to come to repentance." God wants us to come to him and be with him someday eternally in heaven. Now this doesn't mean that because you are a christian you have an easy life. As a christian we still sin and therefore cannot achieve perfection. As to why God allowed a band to become famous but there are still starving people in Africa that is where I acknowledged that they did work hard. These people were born in America where we are privileged to do anything we want to.They worked hard for this and in reward for there hard work, God allowed them to have success in his music.
Jacob Butler I fucking hate Christians like you. All preachy and judgmental. You think you're actually going to go to heaven when you die just because you do something bad and you beg yor god for forgiveness. Hah. There's no such place. It was created as a reward to balance out the punishment of going to hell by a great ruler who realized that religion is a great way to instill order. You'll come to find in time that your god isn't real, just as the Vikings, the Greeks and the Romans did. You ever notice how all relgions have a punishment and reward system... Weird right? And they were created with human-like concepts. Heaven, for example, is based completely around humans. They say that god created the heaven and the earth for us, and created us in his image, which doesn't even fit in modern society, where we know what the universe is and that it goes on, virtually, forever at the speed of light. All of these things have been tested and proven. None of it is faith-based because it can PHYSICALLY be proven. Your god cannot be proven, nor can many of the events written in the bible. If it weren't for the people who branched out from religion for the belief of science, which was outlawed and considered the work of the devil, the society and comforts you now have would never have existed. Think about hospitals, cars, electricity, planes... None of it would have been possible without someone proving the church wrong, and now it's all accepted as truth. If we would have gone with religion when we were battling Rabies or Smallpox, those virus's would still be out there, ravaging our society. Yet even with all that information, you'll still blindly follow that which provides no proof of it's existence or societal value. If anything, religion is a curse. Virtually every war since the beginning of written history has been about religious differences. they estimate that 10% of every human that has ever been alive was killed by a christian. Doesn't sound too "peace-loving" to me.. Sounds more like a backwards mind game, where you're being used as a puppet.
August Burns Red, if your reading this comment, I just want to let you know that my name is Jordan Dorta. Since I was only 8 years old I've wanted to join the United States military. I just joined the United States Army. You guys have motivated me to the point that nothing will stop me from achieving my dream. Thank you August Burns Red and God Bless. Hooah!
This is my go to song when I need motivation, to reassure myself that chasing my dreams and passions is the right path to happiness. I wish I could let ABR know just how much this song and all their music means to me.
"Listen up, this song is dedicated to every single person out here tonight. Every single one of you guys has a dream. Has desires. Has a purpose. And your dreams are not meant to be dreamt at night when you're sleeping. Your dreams are meant to be lived out in this life you have here today. And whatever is standing in front of you, holding you back, I want you to know that you have the strength to overcome it. Thank you guys for being a part of my dream."
every single one of you guys has a dream, has desires, has a purpose,and your dreams are not meant to dreamed the night while you're sleeping...your dreams are meant to be lived out in this life as you are here today, and whatever setting your foot on you holding you back i want you to know that you have the strength to overcome it, thank you guys for being a part of my dream... God bless you.
"Listen up, this song is dedicated to every single person out here tonight. Every single one of you guys has a dream has desires, has a purpose, and your dreams are not meant to be judged and at night when your sleeping your dreams are meant to be lived out in this life you have here today. And whatever is standing infront of you, holding you back, I want you to know, that you're the strenght to all the (...) thank you guys for being a part of MY dream! God bless you!" it might not be perfect..
I have. I own every single August Burns Red album. Jake does have a better range, but I haven't heard highs as good as Dustin's too often. He has a lot of power.
He tells the crowd to have their dreams come true. So they can actually live them and not only dream. He also thanks to those people for being his dream as they were able and wanted to buy ticket to a show :-).
Fuck they're amazing. I had the pleasure of meeting them and seeing them live once in Melbourne Australia. This was during their 10 years of Constellations tour. I need to see them again!
Dustin's playing guitar because song needs three guitars and he's Dustin so he does whatever he wants, the dude playing bass is just one of their guitar tech dudes
The intro speech is really good.
Depths Of Kronos I always come back to this video for that. Oh and the badass song that follows
The intro speech gave me the push I needed as I was trying to finish up my degree in college.
dustin has such awesome screams
Dustin's live screams are just like how they are in the studio. Jake's aren't quite the same, but they're still amazing.
Jake's voice gets really worn down by the end (this being the last song of the concert) due to the strain he puts his throat under when he screams. technically it makes sense but yeah Jake honestly doesn't sound as good as studio, but you have to give him a break

I was about to comment just this.
dustin kicks the asses of a lot of metalcore vocals lol
+Benz Skyes lol you sound like a douche
He actually has a side project/solo album Called Best Case Scenario we’re he does everything.
That intro... 8 years later and just what I needed to hear tonight. Thank you Jake and all of ABR.
If I were there I would have probably cried
me 2
From 2:25 to 3:55 its like a therapy.
This Shit gave me the chills! Simply BEAUTIFUL!
Dustin kills it on the vocals
got a tattoo inspired by this song. pure wisdom for me!
me 2 bro

Mikhail Baeck Everything is done with God's grace man. They worked hard but God gave them the success as well.
Batman Baker Well that's nice. He went out of his way to help a band, I'm sure the children in Africe appreciate that as well.

Hope you did well since you made this comment. I hope it was everything you dreamed that it would be. I thank you for your bravery.
Have fun killing innocent people in Middle East villages
Thank you for this inspirational comment.
Intro had me in tears. I guess I needed to here that.... Even if it's from a UA-cam video
This is my go to song when I need motivation, to reassure myself that chasing my dreams and passions is the right path to happiness. I wish I could let ABR know just how much this song and all their music means to me.
my god this song is fucking beautiful i get chills everytime i hear that guitar melody at the end

This is by far my favorite ABR song. It hits hard, and the meaning is so positive and influential. THIS is exactly why I love them.

4:48 - 4:55 one of the sickest moments in the metal-core genre I've seen live
I feel like Dustin and Matt never mess up live
God Bless ABR!!
I wish they would play this song more often. It's been years since I've seen them play it
8 years later, this intro gets me every time
My favorite abr song. coming in close second is composure. I also love beauty in tragedy. Fantastic musicians making dreams reality
My past self had the right idea

The amount of talent in this band is disgusting. ABR is just so far ahead of most bands out there. so good
ABR is just an AWESOME band and everyone of them just look like a beautiful person.

Jake and Dustin make the best vocal duo. Hope they take advantage of this in the upcoming album.
Thank you for this song ABR. Thank you for making me believe.
Sometimes you watch something so beautiful it just makes you want to cry...this is one of those somethings 😭😭😭

Bass tech on bass! I saw this live 02-17-12. You can just about imagine what it was like.. No words.

It would be a dream come true to see them live 😢
That solo part JB does towards the end is beautiful as is this whole song.
This is why i love and respect ABR with whole heart 3
You must have always seen them at the end of tour then. I've seen them just as many times, and he's been pretty spot on every time.
I listen to the intro's speech everyday and fuck, that pumps me A LOT!

That speech at the being was..... EPIC!
Chills, so many chills.
first rule of metal: you can never enough guitars! ;)
I fucking love that tone.
He tells the crowd to have their dreams come true. So they can actually live them and not only dream. He also thanks to those people for being his dream as they were able and wanted to buy ticket to a show :-).
