The Sword bring metal and hard rock back to the forefront. And I'm not talking about all those little silly games with sub-genre labelling. These guys are above that. Straight up, no-nonsense, classic metal. How they aren't selling out arenas is absolutely beyond me.
They toured the world with Metallica and had a song on guitar hero 3. They're pretty damn big. I'm from Austin and these guys are hometown heroes. They played a show in Austin last week and sold out the biggest venue in town.
"Tap out bro" metal? Hilarious! That's how I see it too. The Sword is my favorite metal band (along with Maiden). Need more bands like this! No frills, rifftastic metal!
(:25 - :47) This riff is arguably the heaviest, most bad ass doom metal I’ve ever heard. The intro leading up to :25 is the perfect lead in, and then they deliver a riff so heavy it sometimes gives me chills.
Jimmy is such a good drummer to be able to memorize all those all songs and play them like this. They're no joke! This is when he was new in the band. Still using Ludwigs (now he uses Qdrums most of the time) and no China (now he uses the K Custom Hybrid).
I just found the sword by Shazaming an episode of American Dad if you can believe it. I’m fucking lovin’ it though, finally some real metal. The drummer is a beast too. All hail metal!
I've had friends ask why I prefer going to concerts and how the music is better. This video seems to encapsulate the fun everyone can have with a live music presentation. How fun.
Hes still my favorite drummer. People say he wasn't the best, but if whenever I watch the live shows with him in it, his drumming compliments the rest of band playing and it always spot on.
Вчера сидел в баре с друзьями, пил пиво и услышал песни этой группы. Сначала подумал, что это Red Fang, уж больно похож вокал. Был приятно удивлён знакомству с этой группой.
In this music does not float an atmosphere of mist conducive to dreams and sweet drifts. An atmosphere of diaphanous peace that we sometimes feel without knowing exactly why during certain summer days! these artists do not build a discourse of interiority, of breathing, which knows how to make room for repairman silence🐾
If I were ever elected president I would have these guys play at the inaugural ball. I would turn to Chinese and Russia leaders and whisper, don’t mess with America.
i love how you cant here the stoner metal in them unless you listin and here a bluesy riff thats why they been my favorite band for 3 years and im only 12
Love the solo and the heavy chuggy bits. I wished I had the chance to see them when they were still around. Maybe a reunion tour someday!

You need to wear makeup and look like a chick to be huge today
The Sword is what metal was meant to be. They're so good!
Their themes and song lyrics are pretty niche. I've seen them live 3 times. The crowds were about 70% neckbeards.
One of my favourites from the Sword!
These guys should be so much bigger than they are.
Should have been, but rap and the radio sucks now
Way to heavy for mere mortals who listen to Taylor ho!😹☠️💀👹

The Sword is a breath of fresh air. Sick and tired of the "tapout bro metal".
the hell is that even?

Kyles solo tone at 3:29 is one of the best things I have ever heard.

Far across the gulf of time he watches all unfold
And can we all please appreciate that monstrous fucking solo.

Still rockin to these cats on 2023.

Straight discovered and directly in love. This sound moves every single cell in me. Incredibly good.

Man, one day I need to see these guys play live. Such an awesome band.
Yes, you do.
+CheeseTaterson I just saw them on Wednesday and i think I gave myself whiplash because I was head banging so much. My neck fuckin kills
most underrated band ever, they are sooo dang good!
I have no idea why I haven't seen this guys live. This band is not bullshit! What an epic live performance.
Hes still my favorite drummer. People say he wasn't the best, but if whenever I watch the live shows with him in it, his drumming compliments the rest of band playing and it always spot on.
one of my top 5 favorites, up there with lament for aurochs and the white sea!
Dear God, I need to see these guys play live.
Yes, you most definitely do.
Easily my favorite live video from The Sword. Keep coming back here all the time. Pure riffage, and Jimmy goes hard on the drums. 🤘🏻
The Sword is so underrated😢
LOVE these guys! Bring the sweet, sweet melodies!
Good crowd. Well done Denver \m/
Such a good video for it being live. Good quality. I'm hooked.
These guys and mastodon make metal great again 🤘

Refreshing 👍
At a quick glance the drummer could pass for Al Cisneros
Cant wait to see these guys on Oct28 in Athens!!!!
These guys DESTROY the stage!!!!
Super band
Much better than the Bonaroo videos I saw... the singing has some oomf to it!
This is phenomenal!! You guys fuckin rule!
Finally got around to it - can't say It's as good.
Epic.

Fuck this is great thank you!

I always imagine a cybernetic space-steed galloping across the galaxy @ 1:22.
I set my house on fire because the internet doesn't understand what fire sounds like.
Austin Represent. 🙏🕉😜

"The way is shut, the door is cut" 4:09. Lol. It's cool though. It's very hard to sing and play like that.

guitars rode hard... as intended
Guitars need more tightness and gain.. too flubby/ muddy sounding with that tone
drummer is BUSY
