There is a relatively newer band that came onto the scene called Saving Vice and they are bringing back this style in a way. Look up the song/music video by them called "Hell Here" and it's pretty much the revival of the crabcore and metalcore sound imho.
Damn. Bands just have an insane amount of rawness when they are just getting off the ground. Asking Alexandria is no exception. They definitely meant business back then.
in steve t videos "how to do a guitar flip" lesson number 1 never do a guitar flip with les paul or any heavy guitar, it won't work. and he's right haha i can't stop laughing tho
At least they all look like a band though, like the Beatles or bands from the 70s and 80s everybody had long hair they kind of resembled each other, all the outsiders can trash the scene but at least the emo bands all had a certain vision that they all stuck to where they were able to have the music and the look and pull it off well
Esa época de Asking es oro puro, eran todos unos bebés emos muy lindos, amo que les vaya muy bien en sus carreras porque se lo re merecían, hubiera amado ver a Asking de esa época con Danny con pelo negro, pero por lo menos los vi en el 2013 🥲
For all those people saying they are bad live, you're just basing your opinions on the frontman. The guitar and drums were spot on and all guitarist did some awesome choreography. Even though Danny's performance wasn't the best he still is an amazing vocalist and works hard. Listen to run free live and that might change your mind.
He's doing ""BIGGER"" things now than screaming for AA they used one of "We Are Harlots" (The new band he's in) for WWE Monday night Raw as there theme now) he's went total mainstream now. If you're gonna start a metalcore band, and give up half way cause you had creative differences, give up screaming, give up reasons to scream later on don't be in metalcore vocalist. Its not something to take lightly put your all into it. Show you're actually serious about it. When you're life is fucked up all you can do is scream.
We'd all love to see danny doing this again...but sadly ever since he had ripped his vocal chords he no longer can perform screams of this level, its much to painful for him to do. plus the threat of long term damage to his vocal chords
His vocal changed, but he's a lot better as a performer now, he doesn't get drunk before a show like he used to, I'm happy for Danny and accepting the new changes :)
so many things went wrong form sam dropping his pick, ben over swinging his guitar to hard, and Danny not having shoes, and Danny picking the mic little late, AND ME NOT BEING THERE :(
@@Melkor0410 Yeah but Asking Alexandria is clearly a bigger band and has had a bigger influence on the metalcore community. Plus I think they play better and expanded further compared to Attack Attack
"Guess you guys aren't quite ready for this yet...but your kids are gonna love it."
Back to the future!!❤
hey bud, what was the name of your crabcore band back then?
@@alexiluffy216 Listen to this!
love your channel big dog
@@CuteTransGirlxD it's such a hard name to find, you got any link? xD
I laughed my ass off on their "coreography" during alerion. Those totally syncronised runnings, jumpings :D :D
*Choreography *synchronized
Mely Rodriguez Sorry dude I'm not english.
But thank you for the correction, I'll keep it in mind!
revdavid11 lol yea.
Lmao dude I thought I was the only one. They were so much younger here it's almost to funny
+revdavid11 I KNOW!!! SAME HERE
Crabcore mode ON !
😂😂
+Juan David i cant breathe XD
Juan David cringecore
crabcore, runcore, jumpcore, headbangcore 🤣🤣
Insanely good. Absolute metalcore all time classic.
Especially this live show
Beyond Iconic
I hope this style makes a comeback. I really dig the headbanging too.
It came back temporarily back in 2016 with Denis.....then Danny joined back in with his Thicc yee-haw energy
I will be so happy the day crabcore and insane Reckless and Relentless era bands and their rock and roll attitude are a thing again

God dannys screams were so amazing back then, now he hardly even screams these old songs
Aaaaannnnndddd he left the band
Floyd Savage I cri erytime
***** You could argue that for his cleans but his screaming is undeniably better in the first two albums
Kietsero you said it. "old songs"
@RᴇɴBᴜɴɴʏ The medley of old songs they played just now says otherwise.
6 years later and James still refuses to wear a shirt while playing.
omg never notice that till now
+Oscar Chitay He used one shirt in the video of The Black
Holy Crap.. so true.
metal drumming gets hot really fast. A lot of metal drummers don't like wearing shirts while drumming
Trust me we fucking hate shirts they get sticky and its fucking shit all around
2:40 hahahahah Ben felt the power!
in steve t videos "how to do a guitar flip" lesson number 1 never do a guitar flip with les paul or any heavy guitar, it won't work. and he's right haha i can't stop laughing tho
Silly ben
0:33 when you see a spider in the floor xD
MeltedMind lmao 😂
He flipped one of the heaviest guitars you can thing about yoinked him off stage 😂
The way Danny walks on stage and grabs the mic right on time is so badass! They had so much energy back in the day.
Holy shit how deep his screams were. Begins at 1:38.
and the piercing highs 1:51, he was so much better back then
He was the epitome of best screams ever had and high too.
@@leemathew4861 listen to him at the Mitch lucker memorial show. That was insanely high
and just because this hurtfull growls & scream he fucked up his vocal chords
@@metawyrm i mean the guy would rather be able to sing for a long time then to end up voiceless like most screamers .
Those dance steps, man..
I want to do that in our company's Christmas party dance competition..
😂😂
For 2009 the quality isn't that bad
Wow he actually screams in these performances back then
4:49 has yet to be replicated to this day
I wonder if they look back and think about how stupid they looked running in place lol
Nah because we all had a good time doing it
@@GhostsOfJenova fr wish i can go back lol
yeah i don't doubt they cringe so hard watching this
they looked so stupid and made millions doing it ... oof just because its not your taste or you dont like it doesnt mean its stupid...
They probably don't bat an eyelid when they look at their bank balances
Wow man they were just starting out, young, viscerally raw and hungry for more...😁 pure balls-to-the-wall!!- ✌🖤
The fact that they all look like clones of each other in this video xD but Danny killed it with his screams, no wonder his voice was gone damn.
+Asking For Horizons 1 Yeah, and smoking is a main offender. You gotta watch your technique when doing screams too. Or it's tearing time.

This is their best live performance. Hands down
I always come back to this gem. that guitar flip 😂
Denis will never beat this Danny, but he doesn't have to because this Danny is dead...
Chris Allday agreed. And I love your profile picture
Chris Allday sad but true...
Chris Allday very true.
meat hook pudge
Nothing but truth there!
this is pure golden footage. The attitude is amazing.
2:40 8 years later and nobody notice Ben's funniest part?
2:41 that is some fucking scary guitar flipping
Is anyone still watching in 2024?
Gw bang
2025 gng
it's fun to watch videos like this and then realize how huge they blew up
OMG DANNY WAS SO GOOD BACK THEN
Yes😟😢
You're joking? He sounds like a pre pubescent 12 year old looks like one to..
+lei hartfielia danny is still good lol
2020 and i'm still here :(
Im from 2024
@@luckynumber13th52 grew up on this album. I was 12 when it came out and I started listening to it
2:36 he almost failed to doing guitar flip
Could have been much worse!
Danny's not wearing any shoes
😂😂😂😂
he didn't have time after fucking all those girls back stage
i was a singer in college. being barefoot is the most comfortable when singing on stage.
Thanks for posting this, I was at this show, so badass! Really do miss this Danny and AA!
This band was my jam in high school still headbang and scream vocals to them time to time
When James had long hair lol.
Ikr
OH MY GOD! i miss them so much, they were perfect!
Man do I miss THIS Asking Alexandria.
Never noticed how cringe the running in place was, yikes.
Yes
Because it was cool back then
Glad they didnt floss 🤣🤣🤣
It’s fucking hilarious
I love it, synchronized metalcore should be its own sub genre 😂 oddly satisfying
They have THE best synchronized head bangs/running mans/ etc EVER!
Where did all these vids go!? This is the best of AA!
Danny's voice was amazing here...
Shit happens now.
Danny threw it all away
its the god damn song dude ....
What I wouldn’t give to go back to 2005-2007 😢
Why do people go onstage barefoot? Why?
Close to Human Music who needs shoes
Its a surprise to see you here man! Old school AA fan? 💁😊
feel the beat through the floor
@@jacoba2901 I feel the beat just fine through my shoes.
@@ClosetoHumanMusic the vibrations just seem to envelop you when you're up without shoes
Old AA > New AA
OLD AA>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
New😢😢😢
I can remember seeing them in 2009, they've changed so much, can't wait to see them for the 5th time Leeds
The pogo. The crab. The off beat bang. The running man. Choreographed metal dancing was sooooooo baddddd at this moment.. OMG
Bro, I Fucking hated the running man back then, and still do to this day... 2006 was 14 almost 15 years ago haha
By bad you mean awesome, right?
fuck you it's awesome the runnin and crab and everything u'r just insecure that's all
nostalgia so bad when i comeback to see this !
Broooo i miss the old AA. Who here in 2024 December?
0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0 0-0-0-0-0-0 xD
Kevin Cisneros lol, that's th he tab for every Asking Alexandria song!
Wagnerds Clan I get the joke, but it's not.
Roman Czwakiel I know haha
Roman Czwakiel Might as well be for a bunch of their old stuff. Really good, but kinda simple.
Not really fucking idiots say this so much same with bring me the horizon when they did prey for plagues look up the fucking tabs

@@elMorroTijuana pero ya no es el asking del 1 o 2 álbum, viene a Argentina también pero yo no voy a ir a verlos porque ya no es el asking viejo.
I like watching old performances :,v
same here
+Isabella Rodríguez :vv
I'm gonna miss you. Ben Bruce ❤️
This needs to be preserved in the scene archives
Danny's screams were amazing back then. I wish he still screamed live like that now
I think it's just that when you become famous you lay back a little because you achieved what you wanted
You great bro.....
It is 2020 and still give me goosebumps
2023
Забавные движения) Бег с Гитарами, КрабКор, Синхронные кручения с гитарами. Эх золотые были времена)

hahahaha cmon ben :D 2:41 almost fell down
And he almost got smacked in the face with a bass
Saved it like a boss tho
Never throw a les Paul or heavy guitar hence why Ben got pulled with it
Watching this in 2020. I’m so happy they got their look down.
This belongs in a museum
Belongs in some Anthropology paper
omfg omfg OMFGGGG danny's screams from here + denis's cleans....this combination would slay the earth
Denis is traah
When you're too post hardcore to wear shoes onstage.
Lmao
This is metalcore
When you’re too stupid to realize this is metalcore.
They got the harmonies wrong in the intro or maybe one of the guitars wasn't as loud.
Danny was amazing. Sucks that everything changed :(
he wanted to
+ThatWeirdMaggot not for the better though
+oLightt yeah but idc if he's happy now its all good
This video.... Oh my God I haven't seen it in years. The best AA has ever sounded live lol
really sad that i never got to see them live when they were this good.
crabcore at its finest.
Lucas Yates no crabcore... look at attack! attack!s sticky stickity don't know how the right name is 😂
THATS the real, original crabcore!
Mister crab + hardcore = crabcore
I legit still come back to this performance, so damn good. Anyone here in 2020?
2020 and still listen this...
Ben almost fell after the guitar swing 😂
he almost fell, that wasn't him thinking they were moving
2024 still watching and listening 🤘🏼
Will we ever hear Danny scream again? Thats the big question. Hope so
He's doing ""BIGGER"" things now than screaming for AA they used one of "We Are Harlots" (The new band he's in) for WWE Monday night Raw as there theme now) he's went total mainstream now.

We'd all love to see danny doing this again...but sadly ever since he had ripped his vocal chords he no longer can perform screams of this level, its much to painful for him to do. plus the threat of long term damage to his vocal chords
I don't think so
11 years later and those vocals are still pretty good lmao
His vocal changed, but he's a lot better as a performer now, he doesn't get drunk before a show like he used to, I'm happy for Danny and accepting the new changes :)
i think this is the best performance i have seen of them on youtube.
Fuck yes! The young and good Danny!
Thanks for recommending me this 11 years later UA-cam 🙄🙄🙄
Danny sounds f*clung great dude
I love Asking Alexandria, but i think we can all agree that danny's voice in this is so much better than it is now, its just incredible in this...
phenomenal song. will be a legend song in this genre
Always has been
Still legendary.
This performance was elite!! 💯🔥💯
Still better than their new 2018 music.
Se ven tan pequeños en este video que adorables
Sería bueno que este AA volviera algún día :c
No va a pasar amigo ;-;
Sí u.u
IfImJamesDean a que no ?
Carlos Skies tus deseos se cumplieron xd
Mira nada mas lo que me encuentro rondeando en la emo web xd jajaja que nota carlitox
I didn't see them until 2014 and I really wish I had seen them live when Danny still screamed during the parts he was supposed to :(
Those running moves 😢❤🤘
very old style . i love this!!!!
back when asking alexandria was asking alexandria
@TendingToTheCorpses yes..thats logical because maybe they are the same genre with the others..however,,they are one of the best screamo bands
so many things went wrong form sam dropping his pick, ben over swinging his guitar to hard, and Danny not having shoes, and Danny picking the mic little late, AND ME NOT BEING THERE :(
I really miss this version of asking alexandria
Still in the "lets hang our banners with PVC pipe" days. God bless em lol
4:25 lol the person isn’t putting his vocals up and he gave up 😂
Back when Asking Alexandria used to be an Attack Attack copycat
its the opposite. silly.
Always saw them as the brothers of crabcore. None is better or worse than the other. They do their own stuff with the same concept
@@Melkor0410 Yeah but Asking Alexandria is clearly a bigger band and has had a bigger influence on the metalcore community. Plus I think they play better and expanded further compared to Attack Attack
@@jxjxofficial agree, i love both, but asking alexandria took attack attack' 2008 "someday came suddenly" style to the public even more
you are just screaming that you know nothing about metalcore back in the days if you think that lmao
i love Camerons guitar! Anyone knows what guitar it is?
My biggest regret in life is not seeing them when they were this good.
It was awesome 👌
@@Legendairy_Angel94 I didn’t turn 18 until 2012 so it wasn’t like I could go. My parents would not* take me lol
Still to this day their 2011 show has not topped anything in my 300+ concerts.
Danny sounds insane in this, good stuff
Jeez i missed these music
thank you UA-cam recommendations
ugh so many scene kids in this comment section mourning about the old asking. im a huge fan but i like the new stuff as well
Why do you have to hate on scene kids when saying that..
I agree with you man.Scene kids only like AA not musically but it's about how they look like xD
Jerson Prince That's not what he was saying at all
i'm a huge fan of asking alexandria and i love all the albums the most one i like is from death to destiny
Jared Lussiana because if i say i like AA people assume im some shrimpy baby that cries and cuts all day
2025 and it still bangs… 🥶
