As The Structure Fails originally started in 2009 and in 2014 brothers Carter and Kyle Laird joined as the vocalists. The group are not only bandmates but family. This aspect of family was important when drummer Kyle Clarke underwent multiple brain surgeries for a life-threatening diagnosis called Arteriovenous Malformation which he had been battling since he was a child. The band put all music projects on hold in order to support him. Although this was a difficult period for them all, as of 2016 Kyle made a full recovery. This struggle has created an outlook of thankfulness that has reinforced the friendship and music of the band.
As of August 2018 they released their latest full-length album collaborating on their song "Purgatory" which features Brook Reeves of Impending Doom. The album focuses on topics such as damaged relationships ("Undesired"), addiction ("The Fix"), and the immoral habits of our culture
The band is continuing to create a sound that relies on heavy technical playing, but at the same time keeping catchy rhythms and choruses at the forefront of their sound. Carter and Kyle Laird are unique in comparison to other double fronted bands as they are biological brothers.
Based out of Stouffville, Ontario, Canada.
Lyrics:
I'm lost faking my disguise
My thoughts eat me up inside
And it hurts to say
That I know I'm fading away
I thought I'd reached my all time low
Yet further further down I go
They say love is the healer
Love is the healer
But no one can seem to save me from myself
Stand here for the last time
Constantly crushing me
Forget the emotion
Can't seem to let go
You know I've tried to find you
I can't escape I can not reach the surface I've been looking for
Save me
I don't know what to do
Save me
I don't know what to do
They say love is the healer
Love is the healer
But no one can seem to save me from myself
Stand here for the last time
Constantly crushing me
Forget the emotion
Can't seem to let go
You know I've tried to find you
I can't escape I can not reach the surface I've been looking for
I thought I'd reached my all time low
Yet further further down I go
I thought I'd reached my all time low
Yet further further down I go

One of the few times I don’t regret clicking an ad 🔥🔥🔥
Thanks Logan 🤘 keep it metal
Same dude! Not what I expected at all but definitely wayyyyyy better.
I did the same thing I love this
saaaaame
Oh my freaken gosh same
OK who else was shocked when this song actually turned out to be an absolute banger?! 🔥
I thought this was going to be a joke.
I don't even know what the fuck happened. Shit ended up being so amazing. Now, I'm anticipating more from them.
Yeah, this sh!t straight slapped me in the ears and made a fan
I like the instrumentals even more than the song. 🔥🔥
I was completely mind blown 🤯 like “Dude this is actually really fire 🔥🤟🏾”
@@kurumi9714 Did you listen instrumental that we released for this?
Visual representation of what it’s like being a metal head in Indiana
And tennessee
*ol' mcdonald had a farm*
*THEN IT WAS PASSED TO HIS KIDS*
hold up I just posted this
😂 Kids these days !! Ol McDonald made a breakdown
🐖🐄
BREEEEEE
Its actually his brothers. Since they're hillbillies, they are both his brothers and his sons anyway.
I was listening to Architects and have no clue how I got to this... not complaining though🤣🤣🤣
Ahh the classic UA-cam rabbit hole!🤣 Thanks for rocking out!!
I came from Born of Osiris
@@commandercorndoggakadvs3768 Gotta love Born right?!
Better than the new Architects tbh
@@marshallsmith619 I will agree that the music video is better than Architect's music videos, but Architects reach me more personally. Still very good though.
I've recently found this band, the music videos are hilarious but the music is just amazing
If these guys want to marry their sisters. I'm okay with that.
Thanks, the wedding was actually on Saturday 😂
@@AsTheStructureFails the fuck lmao
@@AsTheStructureFails im laughing so hard im legit crying 😂😂😂😂
@@AsTheStructureFails shit marry me and my sisters. We could be a metal family 😄
@@theouterlimits1 hahahaha
When the drummer pulls out the two corn 🌽 out of his bibs and beats the drums... That was Beautiful
Lmao thanks Bubby 🌽🌽 Keep it corny
Fucking oath what a drop in
😂😂😂
For anyone wondering if this song still slaps after 3 years, I'm here to tell you it does.
It absolutely does 😂
Checking in 2024...still does
Independent analysis confirms.
Came to see what I thought would be a meme, stayed because it actually turned out badass! Great job guys!
yeah!! Thanks Alex
🤘
Same, actually!
NEVER STOP MAKING THIS TYPE OF METALCORE!!!! omfg I haven't heard a band this fucking dope since early 2012 era
You are too kind🖤 🌽
@@AsTheStructureFails No U
Listen to famous last words or crown the empire. If that’s too heavy than a similar band to this one but a lot more melodic vocals is Light the Torch.
winds of plague
My man is shredding the banjo
🤘🏻
Banjo Shreds > Everything else
😂. Thanks for jamming us STK!! Keep it metal 🤘🏻
Love the banjo
@@shadowassassin6319 Thanks Travis, hope you're doing well man
I am in class but got 2 hrs left
Ok i am done with class let me know anything i want to listen to
So this is one targeted ad that actually reached its target.
That's amazing to hear, appreciate the comment Talia. Hope you're doing well
The slow mo clips of the belly slaps were the cherry on top 😂🔥
Lmaooooo glad you're diggin it brother 😂🔥 🔥
The shots of the vocalist riding the tractor screaming kills me 😂😂 I'm so glad I clicked on this ad, yall are fucking dope
Lmao thanks Nick! Keep it corny 😂🌽
@@AsTheStructureFails aww...shucks yall definitely caught my ear 😂🤘🏼
Hanging upside down banjo shot? Yes please
Thats the best fucking shot.these guys are fucking awsome
they need to follow this up with their smash songs "squeal like a pig city boy" and " you sure smell purdy tonite Pa"
Heavy metal is like rule 34. if it exist, there's a metal version of it.
I just wanna say... I love this comment but at the same time I don't
Death metal not heavy metal
If custom maps exist there is a dust 2 war owls 3rd law of counter strike
Metal in general
lol exactly what I think
Clicked this expecting comedy, stayed because these dudes are actually pretty good. Would definitely watch them live
Thanks William! Appreciate that, keep it corny
🌽
Trust me, they suck live
LOVE IT! its got that early 2000's metalcore vibe 🎉
This band perfectly captured what it is to be a Georgian
This really takes me back to the good old days y'all. Growing up on the farm was the only education I ever needed.
Happy to hear that. for sure you learn a ton by working on farms
@@AsTheStructureFails yes sir, the most important lesson is "love". The animals teach you that one.
This song is actually really good. Like REALLY good
The belly rolls killed me. I was expecting this to be cringe, but this song actually smacks.
Haha, thanks salad! Filming that scene was hilarious and unforgettable to say the least. Glad we got to capture it with this video 🤘. Hope you're keeping well!
Yea it does. But that beginning disappointed me. Hey... maybe they did it on purpose
Facts!
@@AsTheStructureFails you guys are so dope. I had to hack into my husband’s account just to tell you guys lol. And keep it up you all have such amazing talent you all will go far in life!!! -Mrs. Flanders
@@MFpuddles Thanks for taking the time to reach out 😊
I love it! 🤘🏻🫶🔥 Amazing guys!!!
This is what happens when slipknot meets the hills have eyes and the wrong turn. 😂 but I’m jamming 😂
Lmaooooo 🌽 Thanks Jack
Plot twist: its Slipknot without the masks. I mean, they're from Iowa, can it get more hillbilly than that?
Pleasant surprise! love this!
Very pleasantly surprised, you guys kick ass, and those clean vocals are on point
🙏
Major Protest the Hero vibes right! Keep it up boys! Omg!
letss gooo!! thank you!! Canadian metal ftw
that's some sick belly slapping! 🤘🤘
yo, all jokes aside, this song is actually really good. Like how does this not have more views??
This song made me feel like I didn't for years. Like 2006 listenning to Killswitch Engage or In Flames or Soilwork of that era.
Well done lads, good work!!!!
I'm from Indiana. I see corn, I click.
😂 LOL - Glad to have you here
Ope, hey there fellow hoosier
@@petejett1361 Nice to meet you Pete
@@petejett1361 Hey!
Hey as the structure fails, if yall came to muncie or any of the surrounding areas I'd come see you live!
Fuck yes. This is what the world needs. You guys are killing it. If y’all come up towards New Hampshire to play you know I’ll be there
Thanks Chris, that's great to hear! Hope to meet you soon
As the structure fails needs to be Canada's number one export!
Mack on fire? Corn cob drum sticks? McFalex, you've done it again sir!
Even the f****** corn is metal!
The metal lives within us all...🤘🎸
Yes... It sure does ! 🤘🙏🌽
Sounds like old volumes. I like this a lot! The breakdown got my good. This is my kind of hillybilly music. This an hank Williams.
I was just casually listening to Beartooth then boom. Stumbled upon gold.
Beartooth is amazingggg great taste! 🤘 Thanks Deebo
Seen the ad on Facebook and was like WTF. Figured I'd check you guys out and I like it! Keep it up my Maple leaf friends
I got recommended this 1 year later and i absolutely love everything about this
Haha, better late than never right?!
The instrumentals are badass.. lol thought the lyrics were gonna be about farming,hunting or fishing. Lol u know country stuff or like his ex wife took the dog and the good recliner
HAHA! Thanks Michael, that would have been hilarious😆
Posted 2 years ago and just now seeing an ad for it? I was skeptical to click it but no regrets, badassery at its finest!
Love it, thank you my dude
I saw the ad and it made my eyebrow raise so much I had to click
10/10. Song is a banger and the video is hilarious 😆

This is definitely one of the top comments haha🤘. Thanks David, hope you're doing great my man
@@lindygrrl658 Keep it corny
The sound of your voices is damn good.
The refrain is brilliant when the clean vocals start.
Greetings from Germany.
Thank you Einfach, really glad you're liking what you hear
Its really not. Go listen to any other mainstream hot topic wannabe scene band
@@chrisdigiorgi2915 ey chris, if there is any place in this world where we don't need your opinion... is this one.
Intro is so beautifully simple.
This is insane!! Soo good!!
the first time I've ever clicked an add...now I'm wondering if I've missed a ton of gold....cause this...this is gold
That is sick, thanks Kenny. We got loads more weird stuff otw !
Heavy metal songs give me another kind of harmony ❤🎧
Respect from India 🇮🇳
The lyrics are fucking original & relatable
I’m a hillbilly and I approve. Love the music guys, definitely going on my Spotify
Hell yea! Keep it metal🤘🏻🤘🏻
“I thought I reached my all time low, yet further and further down I go.”
Has a Killswitch vibe.
yea actually a few ppl have made that reference !
This is now my favourite song, listen to it at least 20 times a day no joke, I live how melodic that riff is and then that drop o.g
That is amazing, thank you Brad. Hope you're doing well brother. Keep it metal
@@AsTheStructureFails Doing great! Had our Baby boy today at 12:13pm... Christmas Baby! Kobi Darnley :) Literally listening to 'on the edge' while I cut his cord haha 🤣 Also, The Surface was played at my Uncles funeral, I showed him you guys and he got hooked haha, R.I.P Uncle Ray. Honestly, As The Structure Fails, I hope you all appreciate how good you are and realise that your musical talent is God like... you've smashed Asking Alexandria and I See Stars, please... keep your amazing work going! Enough love and respect for your future and happy new year 🙂 x
the second guy has an awesome voice i might add WOW!
This sound like white chapel with the guitar riffing and vocals breakdowns I love it
Thanks man, Whitechapel is amazing 🤘great taste
Great job guys!!!
This is the furthest down the UA-cam rabbit hole I’ve ever gone and I’m not mad about it.
hahahahaha yes!! 🤠🤘 so badass
#cobcore
Thank you, please continue dropping bangers.
This track is fire! Mack isn't the only one with third degree burns here. I think you guys could really break into the Country scene with cobcore. I mean, look at Lil Nas X - he did it and there wasn't one tractor, one snaggletooth or piece of corn in his entire video. That's not Country, no wonder it didn't hit the charts, but I think you guys have a real shot here.
The reason you didn't see any corn cobs in Lil Nas X video is because he was hiding them up his butth0le.(in Ken Jeong voice) G@y!!!🙃🙃🙃
Came back after hearing again on spotify. I know the music video's hilarious, but the song itself is straight fire! Love it so much and can't wait to hear more in the future!
Thanks so much for the kind words Snek : ) releasing a new single very soon! Cheers
Hell yeah that's frigging awesome!
Just found this!!! Put's tears in my eyes and a lump in my throat from the nostalgia it envokes and hope for the future of music. I fucking love this shit!!!!
I absolutely love this song I can't stop listening to it🤘🤘🤘
Okay. I saw this several times so I finally clicked and this HITS!
Not disappointed at all lol keep up the great music making you guys! 🤘
These dudes are INCREDIBLE!!
Why am I just now seeing/hearing this?😭🔥🤘🏾🤘🏾 insanely good
Children of the corn all grewd up
Grown*
You guys are awesome, this was hilarious!
I thought I was the only hillbilly metal head.
But now I was shown and proven wrong. Outstanding job y'all!
This song helped me figure out my trucks top speed lol
If you’re wondering it’s 170kph.

That is amazing Amandra, we love to share our sense of humor we everyone. We wish you the best and hope to see you in the mid west, Cheers
Im from Illinois. So i get ya. We got corn and bean fields here. Thats about it. I was pleasantly surprised at how good this was. I usually skip my ads, but, for some reason, i was like "fuck it, it looks like a meme, lets check it out". I was blown away. These guys have potential.
Cobcore? Really?!.... goddamnit (subscribe) lol
