So old :( , I remember we were at a very small venu in Panama city beach well after, way over crowded, the pit grew and busted out the windows, but shit I got to see them live in a small place, best night of my life. They stopped cause some kids / chicks were getting trampled. Stand up guys, but so hardcore.
I met these guys in Winston Salem, NC close to 20 years ago after seeing them we stopped at a Waffle House on the way back and they happened to be there eating too. I was having car trouble and they helped me get my car up and running again. Top notch dudes and a memory I'll never forget.
I remember seeing those guys in 2003 at the glasshouse in Pomona California. Just as the nerdy breakdown hit, bass player smashed singer in the forehead. Screaming as blood run down his face. It was epic!
Can’t believe this is 22 years ago… so glad they are still playing shows here and there. Wish they’d release a new song or something! Favorite band forever
seeing them next friday in BROOKLYN .. saw them about 12 years ago ,, wont be the same.. were both alot older and there members have changed.. but goddamn i am gonna party like its 2003
Derek Miller now playing in Sleigh Bells. He is still a great guitarist, but it's just sad he's not playing in a hardcore band anymore. Glad I got to see them in 2003 when they were touring for their third and best album.
@@InstazomeASMR don't like it? Don't watch the videos/go to shows. It's as simple as that. Check out vids of stuff you love instead of something you don't. When the fuck will people learn to love more than hate.
This fest was insane. The cloud from the humidity that formed on the last day..haha Also holy shit I’m old. Does anyone have the set from the band Craig uploaded?
Yes and no. Poison the Well and Eighteen Visions were massively influential, but bands like Botch, Coalesce, Converge, Integrity, Earth Crisis, Rorschach, Zao, Disembodied, Burnt By the Sun, Shai Hulud, Deadguy, and Kiss It Goodbye basically pioneered metallic hardcore/metalcore.
Damn, I was born the year before this and it's sad I'll never get to see them play a set like this or be the dude diving from the sky at their set. :'(
the man who originally started the festival sold the name. so now, it resides in the hands of commerce & is bastardized from what it's original incarnation and intent was for. there are "hellfests" overseas now...
ua-cam.com/video/7cdeSlao9tE/v-deo.html They played at the same festival. There is a Hellfest 2001 DVD that's one of the greatest compilations of live music ever recorded in my mind. There's footage of both of these bands among many of the greats during this time.
Happy Ardinto Hellfest '04 happened, there was a riot that costed a lot of money because of damage, and Hellfest '05 got cancelled because of it. There's people who claim otherwise but the evidence is out there. Its not hard to connect the dots.
@@xretroxvibex also, the insurance for the event sky rocketed. The show eventually went to europe. If you do a search you can find it. The fest has turned more into a black metal/power metal fest. Good bands never the less. Just not the hardcore show showcased in these historic videos.
Yeah I remember they had to refund like all of the tickets in 05' then they moved it to France. I had the 2003 DVD and was super bummed they were moving it over seas.
22 years ago and Nerdy still goes hard as ever. This was the scenes golden age
0:05 - Slice Paper Wrists
4:07 - 12/23/93

Close to the perfect setlist. Only missing My Mirror No Longer Reflects.

Canonbaaaaalllllll!!!!!!!!
good thing you were skinny
Respect to you
@@InstazomeASMR right.. 19, vegan, and skinny... helped temper some of the idiocy of my younger days. haha.
@@leestarnes did you live or nah? 😂😂😂 man what a hell of a jump
This band was so fucking huge from 99-03. Every show they played was like this.
i cant believe this was 15 years ago i miss hardcore shows
We are all getting old together I thought the same thing

It's still alive in Philly
@@RyRy84 Remember seeing Evergeen Terrace in Fort Lauderdale; lead singer's crotch blew out and played the whole show in his boxers
@B**** G**** Okay boomer.

Great story. Great band
0:25 holy shit! Also, that's one hell of a pit!!

I was at that show, lol. I remember that shit, I was front row. Great night
cant wait to see them live again in jan 6th 2023 in LA. what a part of my adolescence!
There aren't shows like this anymore
Was just thinking the same.
Have you seen the one in Philly?
Stevekev Bryid actually there's "This Is Hardcore Fest" and they do put on some Metalcore bands on the bill annually.
Um look up knocked loose live 2018 Philly... ... .... Billy no mates
This was before smart phones.
Can’t believe this is 22 years ago… so glad they are still playing shows here and there. Wish they’d release a new song or something! Favorite band forever
Take me back to shows without smart phones.
this needs to be a thing again
the scene is reviving itself slowly but surely
I can’t believe the sound is so good
I absolutely played these guys out in the beginning of the millennium. Saw them live in pomona at the tear from the red tour with glassjaw , AMAZING
if i had a time machine...this is where i would go
18:32.... thats how you end a fuckin set.
Hard to believe this was almost 25 years ago
This is a true gem 💎
Falling from the sky was an oddly normal occurrence at summer fest/hellfest in Syracuse.
Canonbaaaaaaaallll!!!!!!!
I picked up a copy of P.T.W. "Opposite Of December" way back when it first came out. Still have it, too. "Tear From The Red" is, too.
sooo stoked for there hometown reunion show in two weeks
none of your business I missed this...do you know how if they are coming back again to florida???
PTW is easily in my top 3 favorite bands of all time. In my opinion they're the best metalcore/post hardcore band of all time.
God this makes me feel old.
Man the good ole days
seeing them next friday in BROOKLYN .. saw them about 12 years ago ,, wont be the same.. were both alot older and there members have changed.. but goddamn i am gonna party like its 2003
my god i wrote this comment 8 years ago -- great concert though hahaha yaaa
Damn, I would’ve been 2 years old when this show happened. Wish I could’ve been there.
When shows were a fucking battlefield
12:06- simply important
122393 Laughin at my cow.... I remember the flyers when they would play at Kaffe Krystal in Miami.
love them!
I miss this.
what an era
An era before MySpace yet it echos every MySpace Metalcore band that came after. Such an awesome band
Botchla was new... what a trip
“Laughing at my cow/for letting you fall” goddamn I love PTW
Derek Miller now playing in Sleigh Bells. He is still a great guitarist, but it's just sad he's not playing in a hardcore band anymore. Glad I got to see them in 2003 when they were touring for their third and best album.
After dealing with macho crowds, he probly wanted nothing to do with it anymore. understandably
Seen Sleigh Bells twice, I’m always the dick who yells for PTW songs lol
@@InstazomeASMR how about you just shut the fuck up
Lol jilles you're really proving a strong point how macho douches should be tolerated
@@InstazomeASMR don't like it? Don't watch the videos/go to shows. It's as simple as that. Check out vids of stuff you love instead of something you don't. When the fuck will people learn to love more than hate.
Well hell yeah
So epic
Every person there knows every word of Nerdy. What a crowd.
i found myself rather quickly.
wow 20 fucking years ago, damn homie we old.
It's been a while. I saw PTW in Pontiac Michigan warped tour in 2003. They put on a hell of a show.
they was fuckin awesome live!
dude at :25 killed it, where the f did that dude come from ? lol!
There was a raised area on that side with bleachers. He jumped off the handrail.
@@veganeric i jumped off the stacks.. haha..
When hellfest was still hellfest
This fest was insane. The cloud from the humidity that formed on the last day..haha
Also holy shit I’m old. Does anyone have the set from the band Craig uploaded?
These guys and 18 Visions basically influenced everybody
uh, nah. Look to Hope Conspiracy, Terror, Hatebreed etc. 18V was different and fun but only till The Best Of
them and morning again. hidden hand of the martyr and as tradition dies slowly are classics
Converge. Cursed.
Yes and no. Poison the Well and Eighteen Visions were massively influential, but bands like Botch, Coalesce, Converge, Integrity, Earth Crisis, Rorschach, Zao, Disembodied, Burnt By the Sun, Shai Hulud, Deadguy, and Kiss It Goodbye basically pioneered metallic hardcore/metalcore.
@@thehurrytheharm Sam had the right list. Not Hatebreed lol
Anyone get Since the Fall on video?
So much better than mainstream in this time period slipknots or poop holder ah I mean mud vain.
That. Fuckin. Pit.
What is the first song from this set
Mike Deal Slice Paper Wrists
what is the song before Botchla?
+Northern Lad 12/23/93
0:25
Damn, I was born the year before this and it's sad I'll never get to see them play a set like this or be the dude diving from the sky at their set. :'(
What happen with hellfest now..i miss old hellfest
the man who originally started the festival sold the name. so now, it resides in the hands of commerce & is bastardized from what it's original incarnation and intent was for. there are "hellfests" overseas now...
I was the 666th like. Hard.
What's the first song called ?
Slice Paper Wrists
Can anyone confirm every time I die was at this show as well?
ua-cam.com/video/7cdeSlao9tE/v-deo.html

Chase Ryan There was a ton of bands at this show, it’s Hellfest 01
There was a 2003 DVD as well and it's also worth it.
What venue?
action sports center & skates in Mattydale,I believe.
What happen hell fest now ??

It's in France now. It's a metal outdoor fest. Bands like Korn and Volbeat play.
Yeah I remember they had to refund like all of the tickets in 05' then they moved it to France. I had the 2003 DVD and was super bummed they were moving it over seas.
No one knows Botchla in this video??? First execution?
Thumbs up if you’re watching this vid in 2023!
Batman fly)
Hands down the best erra of music and live shows/festivals went to all the HF from 98-2004 then it started to get lame.
