When you're so metal that the stones surrounding start to mosh....
happens everyday
Go resonantion! Lmao
They use the power of rock to power there instraments
+Luis Pérez I really lol
when you one up the band with the hardcore vibe (napalm death)
Skyscrapers, earthmovers, ground breakers.
Our buildings rival the heavens.
Our bridges span the seas.
Ingenuity is so cunning.
Innovation is not ours.
Creativity is a luxury.
We build with our hands what we have in our hearts.
Fight the avalanche.
You'll be buried every time.
We run and run and run.
Keep falling behind.
Fight the avalanche.
You'll be buried every time.
We run and run and run.
Always last in line.
Before lines were lines,
Before time was time,
The Author wrote a story in the sky, and earth below.
Little do we know we have only what we're given.
Light up the sky.
We're going where no man has ever gone.
Little do we know we have only what we're given.
Light up the sky. We're going where no man's forgotten.
All You are is all we want. It burns inside us all.
We're finding heart in giving soul.
We're walking home into thin air singing...
We are justice fighters with faces of fire.
Many walk away, but we stand firm.
We are justice fighters with faces of fire
Our decisions affect our descendants.
We are justice fighters with faces of fire.
Skyscrapers, earthmovers, ground breakers.
Our footsteps, bringing purpose, changing history.
Skyscrapers, earthmovers, ground breakers.

Though I really like this whole song, I particularly like the part when they scream "we run and run and run"
Chad Smiley tysm
I love how casual and simple they look
Just normal people doing what they love
The elitists are the worst metalheads. My opinion: the metal community wouldn't be so "thrown aside" without them.
In the words of From Autumn to Ashes, "when did the music become a beauty pageant?" 🤘
You haven't seen Parkway Drive then, i presume
That's the metalcore sort of style, the simple, casual look.
After all those years still one of the best metalcore songs ever .
Dope
This music makes me want to fight with bears
Ie I wrestled a bear once
@@mattberb7662 FUCK!!!! YOU BEAT ME TO IT A YEAR BEFORE!!!!
Well.. there’s some bears out there waiting for a good scrap..
This is how khabib trained. ABR and bears.
And win
Praise God with joyful noise.
Amen, is so rare to see a band praise God in this age this is why this guys and for today are my favorite.
+luis granja Oh, Sleeper is also an amazing band if you're looking for that "praise god" aspect. I'm not a religious man but these bands are incredible.
INdeed they are thanks for pointing them out,
Brandon Sarver i think that they have more nonreligious than religious fans
amen!!!!
Who's still jamming this amazing band?! :D
TuckerDrums Always and forever
TuckerDrums Always and forever
Always & Forever
I'm not a Christian nor am i affiliated with any organized religion. Me loving this song just shows how music knows no boundaries. Try to focus more on what brings us together, not what tears us apart.
I couldn't agree more.
Very nicely phrased too, I might add.
Very well said. I am the same way.
I agree music is just music. love it.
Ok, I'm a Christian, and Sharewith, if you have that sort of mind set, guess what bud, I'M not the one to judge you. That's God's job. Rock on guys.
***** 0/10
Think about it.. The level of skill these guys have and their hearts for playing are extremely high. And the lyrics. They aren't just singing "baby baby" over and over again. What they sing about has a message and a meaning. And in my opinion, that's what makes this music truly amazing. Plus they're just awesome.
So true! not like the juvenile rap shit that so many people think is hard and thought-provoking. Metal and punk music remains the most balls-out-in-your-face musical composition!
I have a huge amount of respect for these guys, they just have so much talent. I may not listen to Metalcore that much these days but these guys were a huge part of my life and youth back in High-school. Keep up the amazing work ABR, loved the new single from their upcoming album as well!
Metal555Fan Yeah, I'm mostly in the BDM sections of music, but I do have those days where I have to revisit my old favorite bands from highschool as well. haha.
Mr Leb I couldn't agree more man! It actually feels pretty good and "refreshing" in a way, ahah.
couldnt agree more!
agreed agreed it's like taking me back listening to these guys
Dimitri Josephine
1:50 - 2:20 Goosebumps
IM NOT EVEN FUCKING SAFE HERE FROM YOU
Fuckkk .....i too had goosebumps!!!
Trump 2016! You cannot escape the inevitable!
+fashyguy25 Over my cold, dead body.
Dude I just now noticed at 1:50 he's not even holding the mic to his mouth when he's yelling XD
Man I've listened to this song so many times and some how never gets old
My thoughts exactly. Love this track
preach
Same with all there songs
Same and its 2020
💯
Stop being so brutal you're scaring the little rocks D':
Dude is KILLING the sandal game.
His sandal game IS on point
Sandals are soo metal dude
flipflopcore
One thing I have always liked about ABR is that they look like normal dudes and they are in it only for the music.
Literally the best metalcore band, no denying it. I love these guys soooooo much holy crap, gotta buy VIP tickets!
+GetScaredGaming Those guys are awesome. Listen to Breakdown of Sanity, same style and also really good
+GetScaredGaming These guys and Phinehas are, at least from a technical perspective, the best. My favorites are Phinehas, Silent Planet, Mouth of the South (now renamed Rival Choir), Fit for a King, ABR, etc. :)
+GetScaredGaming You should check out Parkway Drive, they're very similar to ABR
Pink guy
Im aware of them, great band. Not huge on their new album though :/ Only song i really like a lot on it is Vice Grip
GetScaredGaming Their new album took a while to grow on me.
All these years later and these guys continue to absolutely crush it. Easily one of the greatest Metal bands of all time.
The best*
The breakdown in the end is still one of the greatest breakdowns of all time
Am I the only one who gets excited about the bass drop at 2:45.....It's awesome!!
If you like Bass drops check out Breakdown of Sanity
Gotta love the bass! 🎸 🔥
@@davidstone4270 yup. yup yup. yup yup yup.
My forever band. Words cannot describe my love for them!
right! let's go ❤️❤️❤️
🤪🎶👏🏻
♥
This song was insane live when I saw them on Sunday, they're just an amazing band and put on an amazing show as always.
Goosebumps. Everytime.
1:48 gives me gossebumps aahh
1:47 - 2:37 is my favorite part by far. So epic!!
D.J. Clift yea that turns the song around. Never been a fan of this band, all songs sound alike to me. And hardcore rock is my favorite genre
@@messynate Your ears don't function properly then.
@@Chattsteezy fair enough
@@messynate Lol
What I love about August Burns Red is that they can put every element in a metalcore song and don't sound weird. Listen to that 2:05 part, that's freaking badass!
I used to think that Christians couldn't listen to this kind of music.. I used to not really have a favorite genre although I have always loved heavy metal but now I have found my band. : thanks guys keep up the work :)
10 years later and this is still one of my go to songs 🔥
The Frozen Flame tour is gonna be sick as hell! Hyped as hell to finally see August Burns Red!
Jelly as fuck dude.
Was really hoping they'd get announced for Impericon this year. Fucking pissed still ain't got to see them live.
Grimmjow Jaegerjaquez
Seriously one of the best shows I've probably been to. Next to seeing Parkway Drive and Killswitch Engage. The Frozen Flame tour was insanely good. BTW they closed it off with Empire. Also sucks you weren't able to see them. You'll get your chance my dude. I promise one day August Burns Red will come to Impericon.
DraculaXHunter101
What a crazy line-up~
Sounds like it was a fucking blast. Can't even contain my jealousy right now. :'(
DraculaXHunter101 IT WAS!
DraculaXHunter101 Saw it when it came to The Grenada in Lawrence, KS. Incredible show; August Burns Red and Fit for a King killed it.
This song was absolutely insane at Warped!
This band always have the best breakdowns compared to other metalcore bands.
Facts
Pwd have the best for sure
My first experience of ABR was this song. I used to blast this over and over in my basement. Loved them then and still today!
I love the energy they bring out in this video! this is what a music video should be. the band playing the song. not some short movie lol
Agreed
3:31 "ON THE FRONT STEPS, BANGING PUPPIES"!
That's all I hear haha
It's really "Our footsteps, bring in purpose" but it does sound like that lol
That cannot be unheard now thanksXD
Pure genious.
im not the only one thinking that to
I am praying that my mother may have some peace of mind in the wake of the recent passing of her mother. May grandma talk down to us from heaven!
I remember when this song released, vividly remember those High school days
This song is amazing. Not quite ABR's biggest fan, but I simply adore this song.
Metalcore Never Dies..😈🖤🔥🎶🎵🇵🇪🤘🏻
Honestly the most amazing band to have graced my ears. You guys were instrumental in fostering my faith, well done and Thank you. God Bless!
They're a Christian band, because that's who they are. Their sound is just their sound. Genre doesn't matter, the message does.
Such a great song! So far these guys and Parkway Drive are my favorite bands from the metalcore genre.
Watched this video so many times now, and every time I re-watch 1:47 - 2:37 at least once, usually twice. It's just so good!
"Who You are is all we want. It burns inside us all! We're finding heart and giving soul. We're walking home into thin air singing, 'Oh whoa ow oh oh!'" Love it!
Saw August burns red, Fit For A King, Northlane, and Miss May last night at Diamond Ballroom in Oklahoma city. Was so freakin awesome. Loved every minute of it. My Bud and his 6 year old daughter were there. She rocked it! Can never learn to listen to awesome music to early in life.
They all look like they’re about to do worship for a youth group after this. Love it.
Jake Luhrs looks just like my pastor at church. cant wait to show him some ABR vids
ok minus the tattoos
as someone who plays drums i can only imagine how bad your calves would hurt after playing concerts with songs like these
Whoever thought crabcore could have such influence, all these bands hopping around in the same way.
If you have the chance to see these guys live, take it. They far exceeded my expectations with their talent. Sounds exactly like this studio version if not better!
Love you guys ❤ can't wait for you guys to come back home with TIJ. I love my hometown band's oh so much ❤💛
really shouldnt listen to this song at night it just strengthens my energy and makes me go crazy cuz this song is PURE AWESOMENESSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!
2021!! Always here. August never die
I don't know any singer that expresses his/her feelings like Jake does.
Nice
Hay algo en ellos que me encanta no sé qué es,será su forma sencilla de ser o de su letra o de su música,no se pero me encanta
i just absolutly love the guitars.
whats great is that this singer is EXACTLY like this live... how wonderful.. such energy
1:11 Still my favorite guitar riff
Excelente cancion..... Sigan adelante el mundo necesita mas bandas como ustedes....
Still listening in 2022 ! You're awesome ABR !

One of the few bands that stick to real metalcore \m/
You guys are awesome
For my bros in the military this song is for you brothers we will walk home into thin air singing with jesus
The fact that this is a Christian band still surprises me so listening to this makes me feel better spiritually lol
Excellent Metal band/Dance crew..
I am not religious nor believe in organized religion of today, but up lifting music isn't bad or evil just cuz its heavy and some people can't understand them.
These guys are so amazing. I saw them live at South by so What this year, and oh my gosh, I had goose bumps the whole time they were on.
toooooo gooooddddd of allll agessssssssssss YESSSSSSSSS...still listening 2020 NOVEMBER....EMPIRE ABR
miss typing its 2022
Oh my god how did I not find these guys earlier great band
2:44 the most badass way to performe a bassslide!
sakuL renfO yesssssss so many bass slides
Love Them Forever.
Saw them last night, so amazing!
I am an atheist and now I don't care about their faith - their music is just so fucking devastating and melodic!!
Shit. I think I'm too late to fall in love to this band.
Never!!!
Never to late!
Never!! I started listening to them when I was 22. I'm 26 now and they are one of my favorite bands. Metalcore is just another genre and ABR is a unique band in the metalcore scene.
Nope
Bass player is metal, knows what it feels to be metal, WE RUN WE RUN WE RUN!
I cant wait for the Leveler Tour. My friend is getting me backstage passes!
Sometimes I wish people could see the talent that these guys have as a whole, you guys are fantastic , I've learned most of all your songs on guitar and just recently covered this song, this song is fucking awesome to jam to it gives me chills
to think I met this band last Thursday. oh my god.
Westfest? ;)
Must be nice.
It was. theyre lovely people.
Always beautiful music with awesome lyrics. ABR will be forever one of my favorite bands ever.
So much power in this song!!!!
If you tell me you didn't nearly tear up at 2:03, I wouldn't believe you.
QUE SOM É ESSA FODASTICO
They are just so great
I thought it would be funny if this video would be filmed at a construction site, since it begins with " Skyscrapers, Earth movers, Ground breakers" so it could show a Skyscraper, a tractor and a jack hammer for those lyrics and they could be performing in like those yellow hard hats. And for the main chorus you could have all the construction workers singing at the along. I think that would be a pretty funny music video
I get what you mean, no worries. August Burns Red always has a good message behind their songs
Matt Greiner is a beast!
Don`t scroll down, people are arguing about religion
Well, they need God
Still remember catching the guitar pic at the kitting factory in Spokane after the Brubaker solo some 8 or 9 years ago
1:11 this riff gives me chills every time
The track Cauterise by As I Lay Dying sounds so much like this
No...I disagree...they sound very different.
Me in 2020: RIP Jake’s hair.
To dope! Favorite band.
matt griener is da bes drummer ever. his drumming can tell story. he is so smooth with everything he plays.
They are Jedi of metal
Lead vocalist= Mac from Its Always Sunny in Philadelphia
What has been seen cannot be unseen
What a CHEMICAL TOILET ABR COLLAB
I just wish I could go back in time and watch these guys live again. Saw them last summer and holy fuck, they were so amazing! The bass hit your chest so hard!
Mmmmm bass
tremendo grupooo
I'm not a dog or a cat but I love this band
Fucking awesome screams and guitar solos. But the guy is wearing a polo and it makes me laugh lol. xD
That would be Mr. Brent Rambler for you. haha
Brent always wears a polo.
That's what makes ABR so badass. They wear whatever the fuck they want. Hell they wear flip flops at their concerts xD
Ryan Holmes sorry i don't know the band lol.
Adrian Lopez well i didn't know the band sorry lol.
Love the fact that the song isn't as complicated as other songs making it a little easier to learn on drums
Their guitar work is so commendable :D
ONE DOESNT SIMPLY LISTEN TO THIS WITHOUT HEADBANG *____*
