my mom took me to see them YEARS ago when I was about 11 at a bar. She put me on the stage and I rocked out with these guys. After the show I got to meet them all. The guitarist gave me one of his picks and the drummer gave me one of his sticks that he used to play. Some of the nicest musicians I have ever had the pleasure meeting and very loving.
Absolutely! This song makes it seem like it will be a by-the-numbers album but it's surprisingly emotional and well-written. Definitely one of my favorites of the genre. I saw them in concert October 2002 right before I shipped to Marine Corps boot camp at the Orlando House of Blues and they killed it.
Why can't it be the 90's or early 2000's again back when music like this was good. Not saying bands today are bad because I'll admit I do like some of these newer bands but some of the other types of music today makes my ears wanna bleed xD
This band is the shit! I miss the years 99-02 SO MUCH. Nu metal was at its peak, n64 and ps2 were the shit, and technology wasn't dominating life like it is today. Those were the good old days. Seriously there is just so much bullshit out there today I cant believe it. I'd give anything to go back to these days.
Its funny how you say all those shits and here you are commenting on UA-cam, using either the latest WEB BROWSER, or SMART PHONE, having a youtube account. Go ahead and go back to your 90s. Why dont you use 90s computer on 56k too? HUH MISTER?
and it didn't help to see your favorite nu metal bands go full pop rock and fkn dumbstep (not flaw but a number of others) Those were the days, Steven won't get it
Through the eyes, M3, Superbuick, Motograter, and Hybrid theory will always be my favorite albums. Nu metal has that feel of either being, emotional, or the fuck you style and i love it
Crazy to see how much Chris Volz has changed over the years, he keeps getting better and better. It's to bad his projects never got the recognition they deserved.
This album from Flaw probably saved my life, literally, a few times back in the day when it came out. It was nice being able to relate to lyrics of some of the pain I was going through at that time. The thing that set this album above was the seemingly genuine emotions in the lyrics by the singer.
This shit is peak nu metal. Intro bass line, Warwick bass, funny haired guitarist who jumps around and stares into space and wields 7 strings, blonde singer / screamer / rapper, simple; but heavy chugging riff. Only thing missing is the DJ. 🥰
I have to ask...why would ANYONE waste the time it takes to give this Amazing song a 👎? If you didn't like it, why bother? Go on to something else that fits your needs better. Why even bother? Does it really bother you that bad that someone might actually like this song? Just a thought..
To me the nu metal sound (when written well like any other genre) brings out a lot of emotion and has lyrics that I can relate to the most I couldn't dislike it even if I tried. I wish Flaw had written more stuff like this. Chris Volz was such a badass frontman and had a voice that was untouchable you can really hear his attitude expressed when he sings. In my opinion they had so much potential to be up there with Korn, Slipknot, Limp Bizkit, Godsmack, Mudvayne, Disturbed etc...
I totally agree...nu metal had a great sound and i think its lame how everyone treats it...i think a lot of that though comes from bands like limp bizkit and more specifically fred durst who was always a bit whiney...i think KoRn, Disturbed, Flaw, System of a Down, Godsmack, and even bands like Hed P.E. and Sevendust are great examples of the best Nu Metal has to offer...its just too bad its over. guess we gotta wait another decade for it to come back into style
I remember I was 13 years old and I saw their video on m1. After that, I looked forward to this clip every evening. My friends were shocked. I love them so far
Was a HUGE Flaw fan back in the day....will never forget the guys letting me and my buddy on the tour bus in Syracuse for autographs and pictures just because I had a Flaw shirt on... incredible guys
They filled in for Glassjaw when the lead singer had a sore throat in Portland. I had owned the debut release from "bin surfing" back in the era of Record stores, Met Chris Voltz and company in real time, So awesome, such a great one on one. Still have my signed VHS LOL
@@Youngblood_actual ME TOO dude, Lynn strait is the fuckin man , its like seems nobody in my hometown knows of em, which is cool with me, ill blast it and let the community hear SNOOOOTTTTT
John Giliwaters I'll tell you this for sure I don't know Flaw at all. But I just started listening to them so for that reason it'll take time for me to learn about them and to get more accustomed to their music for sure.
My music taste has changed dramatically over the years. But "Through The Eyes" still happens to be one of my favorite albums, ever. This song gets me pumped like no other.
This was the song and video that introduced me to them way back when, holy shit 20 years now. And my young teenage brain was absolutely hooked instantly. I was a fiend for this album and listened to it so damn much I had to even buy another copy at one point. And it still holds up really well, nu metal fashion choices aside lol
Fuck me this is a song that just got lost along the way as I grew older. Loved this shit way back in my younger years (when music videos were still a thing), and just forgot it existed.
This is a work of art. The music video tells a story and the band rocks my socks off! Current bands need to take note; BECAUSE THIS IS HOW YOU MAKE A MUSIC VIDEO! Próst!
FYI: Flaw had a legal battle with their record label in the mid-2000’s and had to play under the name Five.Bolt.Main! Check out their album VENTING! It’s awesome ALL the way through!!! 🤘🏻
When I saw Rammstein in Chicago in 2012 the drummer of Flaw was sitting right behind me. Very nice guy He's good friends with Joe Letz who was opeing the show.
Can easily guess the year just by watching!! Love this song, this entire album! I can’t seem to move on from early 2000s, hell really don’t even want to!
I can't get over how fucking monstrous the riff for this song is.
Ikr, its so damn meaty, love it
Doob I MF love it!!!
Its so simple but so fucking sick
The bassline in the beginning is sick!
His voice is monstrous, that shit is manly in those screams.
my mom took me to see them YEARS ago when I was about 11 at a bar. She put me on the stage and I rocked out with these guys. After the show I got to meet them all.

not one bad song...I seen them n met Chris Volz twice in the last 2 years...awesome dude n amazing band one of if not my favorite
"MY LETTER" PRETTY MUCH CHANGED MY LIFE AS A KID
yeah! way back early 2000s!
Can't tell you guys how much depression and self loathing I've gotten thru thanks to the music of Korn and Flaw!
This song is timeless, the energy is raw and powerful, his voice, the riffs, the emotion, perfection.
Couldn't agree more!!!
Fact
Bad ass
Don't forget about the production, courtesy of Dave Bottril. It sounds so clean, yet so heavy at the same time.
I agree-very thankful these guys showed up
I'm 49 and yes, STILL JAMMING THIS!
46 here, from the Louisville area, so I know Flaw well.
Now, you are 51 and STILL jamming this. 😁
I’m 50 and still love it too!
Turned 50 last month and I freakin' love this song. Impossible to sit still while listening.
Rock on it's bad ass
Who is nostalgic today and thinking about their awesome fucking childhood bro!? Wouldn't change it for nothing. This music was our escape. Period.
Damn I miss so much these years (end of 90's, early 2000's) and this kind of groove and riffs. That was a golden era
Why can't it be the 90's or early 2000's again back when music like this was good. Not saying bands today are bad because I'll admit I do like some of these newer bands but some of the other types of music today makes my ears wanna bleed xD

Those were the days,
Steven won't get it
Switched, Skrape, ultraspank, Simon says, from zero, lifer, I'll Nino, the list goes on all those great bands
one of the best nu-metal albums
Nikolaos Athanassiou imo it is the best at least top 3
This whole album is badass
Who else is 31 and still jamming flaw?
slayer1030 I'm 30
Im 30 and just returned home from seeing flaw live!!
Yup.... 37 here!
I'm 50. I've seen them a few times. Dont like numeral but these guys are good.

35 years old and still play their music as loud as I can. My kids love them as well ❤️
Quit bragging that you have kids.

Everyone.@@Venus-cx5sy
One of the most simple and heaviest riffs ever
Literally just discovered Flaw in 2020. Thanks Spotify for the fire Nu-Metal Playlist
this shit can beat any mainstream crap this 2023
The nu metal sound is untouchable. RIP nu metal 🙁
Check out band called Moodring.
Through the Eyes was a flawless album. Every song was good. Not just a few.
Damn right.
The irony of you calling a Flaw album flawless. lol.
Ahhh I see what u did there
One of the few albums I dont skip a track. Every song on it is a banger
My absolute favorites on it are Only The Strong, Payback, My Letter and Get Up Again.
Fuck Yeah! I'm 50 years old and still love this shit...
Their concert last night was badass. Chris was sick and still killed it.
I remember seeing Flaw at Ozzfest 2001 and the energy they gave off was raw. I loved every moment of it
Going to see them TOMORROW NIGHT for the first time in TWENTY YEARS. I can't be any more pumped. 39 years old here.
Through the eyes. Such a outstanding album
Thank you Flaw, for coming to our place and playing your Amazing music~I am forever grateful~🎼
Through the eyes, M3, Superbuick, Motograter, and Hybrid theory will always be my favorite albums.
Nu metal has that feel of either being, emotional, or the fuck you style and i love it

did you deflect a bullet with the CD?
Nu-Metal era was the best era for music ever imo, I miss it so much
I first heard this and Mushroomhead on a Ps2 demo disc. I'm so glad I got that disc
The Joshing One it was on a PS magazine Demo disk. I think it was the one with that Britney Spears dancing game demo (oh, irony)
What is this demo disc thing
It's a thing that started all the way back in the 1900's Bryan Lenihan
+abeautifulcancer .music SAME HERE LOL

Sidian Lazarus
Sevendust is the #1 absolute best example of the greatest Nu-Metal of them all...in my opinion. Everyone has one,that is mine.
jon beeler Sevendust its Heavy and Alternative metal not nu metal.
@Sarcastic Witch Not Sevendust & Disturbed.
then they all became drunk idiots
2:34 Misheard lyrics: "Bernie Sanders is gonna come back and be your dad"
that was a great laugh thank you
Oh my god I've had nightmares with exactly that
lol good one i actually laughed out loud
Thats hysterical
..."Pretty soon you're gonna be the one that Berns!"
Flaw got me through a ton of my mental & physical abuse.
I remember I was 13 years old and I saw their video on m1. After that, I looked forward to this clip every evening. My friends were shocked. I love them so far
Chris Volz is a badass in this video. If you can't feel this you ain't alive.
Cleanest bass sound ever, even live. So good.
I'm going on 39 and still love there music and how they came about
I'm turning 50, and yes, BEEN A FAN FOR 20 YEARS!!
This song brings me back to High school. Holy shit.
Agreed. Victory.

I was on my early 20s when this cd came out now I'm 40 still hear this
Producer " how many dirty worms do you want to use in this video?"
Flaw " YES!!!"
Still pops all the way off in 2023.
Fuck me this is a song that just got lost along the way as I grew older. Loved this shit way back in my younger years (when music videos were still a thing), and just forgot it existed.
