@@moneenerd People like to think bands are underrated because they like to think most people haven't heard them when that's not true at all because even people like me who were heavily into nu metal around this time knew exactly who Earth Crisis were. They played at the first Ozzfest too back in the 90s which really helped them get their music out there.
It had a "new metal" sound rather than the metal influenced hard-core sound they had previously. Listen to Destroy the Machines or Breed the Killers; totally different sound. To be fair Slither was way ahead of its time sound wise.
I love that album from the moment I heard it. Earth Crisis is one of the greatest examples of natural musical evolution. From the band Framework until this album, plus everything they’ve done since their reformation. One of the greatest bands of all time, of any genre. Period.
@@DaemonTheProcreated that's one thing I never got a chance to do, attend "This is hardcore" I saw a video of it, looked Brutal like always!!! CHEERS 🍻
Yeah man. It was so weird when this came out, everyone was so disappointed. This was kinda bfore the internet for a lot fo people too so no one had any ideas about how it would sound so everyone bought the cd and was instantly bummed out. This tune fucking rules tho, always has.
Do they still play any of the tracks from Slither live? I got to see them on tour for this album back in 2000 with Walls of Jericho, In Flames, and Skinlab.
I saw them in 2000 as well (w/ Darkest Hour, and Reach the Sky) Their opening song was from Slither. The opening song was absolutely bad ass with the guitar loop effect.
Force-fed delusions from the overseer's hands Won't swallow a doctrine that denies the truth Most absorb the sickness, saturated in the vile, immersed The weak fall quickly to blind conformity in line I turned myself into a monster To fight against the monsters of the world I spared myself the pain they'll suffer When it all finally comes to haunt The source of the collapse is what taught to pity Portray themselves as victims, they're the antagonists Dilute to breakdown the ones who resisted with force Paint their self-defense as acts of aggression to all I turned myself into a monster To fight against the monsters of the world I spared myself the pain they'll suffer When it all finally comes to haunt Surrounded by demons that brand me a devil Each single one thirsts for my blood Encircled by demons that rush from the shadows I hold strong, repel their attack Surrounded by demons that brand me a devil Each single one thirsts for my blood Encircled by demons that rush from the shadows I hold strong, repel their attack No I, I won't submit No I, I won't relent I turned myself into a monster To fight against the monsters of the world I spared myself the pain they'll suffer When it all finally comes to haunt Madness is now what is seen as normal Impulsiveness has been set unchained So few question what is encouraged Locked inside of an alien's cage
@@ricksterdrummer2170 Yup. When Earth Crisis first started releasing music in the early 90s they were super divisive because of their stance on veganism and because they were one of the first bands in the hardcore scene to bring a highly notable metal influence to the genre. This album got written off by fans as their "nu-metal album" (and sort of lead to their original breakup) so it's a bad example, but Firestorm had a massive influence on the scene
I can't believe I FINALLY found this song! I saw it on the Fuse channel years ago but couldn't remember the name of the band just the word 'nemesis' and the chorus! FUCKIN' LOVE THIS SONG! Woulda been perfect to open Pacific Rim with. Lol
Breed The Killers is so underrated. I hate Slither when it came out, maybe it's time to revisit. I always loved this track though, it's a fucking banger. It sounds like what Twitching Tongues do now
Was this song ever featured in a video game soundtrack? Like an old Tony Hawk or racing game or something? I haven't heard it for like 15 years, but I definitely know I've heard it somewhere else.

One of the best under rated band ever!!
Under rated? Pretty sure the entire hardcore community pays tribute to these guys forever

Man, people HAAAAATED Slither when it first dropped, but idgaf. I'll say it. It's their best album. Fight me.
completely agree
Why would anyone hate on this awesome shit?

It's a mean album through and through

Karl has great cleans! Love this eXc era.
Still one of the best bands live ever, the Earth crisis legacy lives!!🤟💯 A firestorm to purify!!!
got to see them live at TIHC this year. never thought id get to witness such a historical band, being from CA
@@DaemonTheProcreated that's one thing I never got a chance to do, attend "This is hardcore" I saw a video of it, looked Brutal like always!!! CHEERS 🍻
The lyrics to this song are so sick...
And, the way the vocals are laid out!
Nicely done.
This song rings still rings true. Timeless.
Still one of my top fav songs

To fight against
The lobsters of the world.

All I hear is “monster” and “monsters”. Not sure why comments like this get so many likes.
@@ryane6545 for fun :)
They were the original SJWs. Animals rights > Gender pronouns
It happens.
I can see how the OG fans got really put off by this but I think it’s an absolute masterpiece.

Totally passed out from this fentynyl
love this band!!! always
First time saw these dudes live at 2019 Hammersonic Festival, they were awesome! Who is still listening to them today?
Do they still play any of the tracks from Slither live? I got to see them on tour for this album back in 2000 with Walls of Jericho, In Flames, and Skinlab.

One of the best pieces of all time.
espectacular para mi las mejor de todas sus canciones
One of the best!
Force-fed delusions from the overseer's hands
Won't swallow a doctrine that denies the truth
Most absorb the sickness, saturated in the vile, immersed
The weak fall quickly to blind conformity in line
I turned myself into a monster
To fight against the monsters of the world
I spared myself the pain they'll suffer
When it all finally comes to haunt
The source of the collapse is what taught to pity
Portray themselves as victims, they're the antagonists
Dilute to breakdown the ones who resisted with force
Paint their self-defense as acts of aggression to all
I turned myself into a monster
To fight against the monsters of the world
I spared myself the pain they'll suffer
When it all finally comes to haunt
Surrounded by demons that brand me a devil
Each single one thirsts for my blood
Encircled by demons that rush from the shadows
I hold strong, repel their attack
Surrounded by demons that brand me a devil
Each single one thirsts for my blood
Encircled by demons that rush from the shadows
I hold strong, repel their attack
No I, I won't submit
No I, I won't relent
I turned myself into a monster
To fight against the monsters of the world
I spared myself the pain they'll suffer
When it all finally comes to haunt
Madness is now what is seen as normal
Impulsiveness has been set unchained
So few question what is encouraged
Locked inside of an alien's cage
Amen 🙏
love the lyrics
thanks you....
ang lupit talaga... haniff!!! long live E.A from phil.
Good old times, who i was a Teenager hehehe! Still great this Song.
I used to listen to this in my teens, now, it’s still good 😊 👍

I love the clean vocals on this album. The way the singing drones is creepy.
Very cool the metal
Origins of metalcore

Say what you want about it, I love Breed the Killers and Slither.
Breed The Killers is so underrated. I hate Slither when it came out, maybe it's time to revisit. I always loved this track though, it's a fucking banger. It sounds like what Twitching Tongues do now
