I remember having POW come up on my Spotify suggestions over a decade ago and almost skipping it - gave it a full songs listen to try, so worth. Over a decade later and still one of my favorite bands with a discography full of nothing but hits. So thankful for HTS and cannot wait for Divine Inner Tension
They're all watching like they know her Foreign nightmare never over Judging by their eyes They've made up their mind Locked away Now, they're taking her Overstay And they're keeping her Let's appease the cameras watching Face of an angel Let's appease the cameras watching So controversial Honesty wasn't mirrored by justice Devil in the people's court Honesty wasn't mirrored by justice Our city, it falls apart at the core She'll stay there wondering what it's all for Media coverage is biased at best Falsified theories are fucking with everyone's head Cold and still, found in the back room Carnage all over the wall for all to see Prosecutor's mind was made up False accuser, clear vendetta Judging by his lies She's been victimized Locked away Now, they're taking her Overstay And they're keeping her Face of an angel So controversial In Perugia, she'll stay In Perugia, she'll stay Black serotonin aimed at those with blue eyes People are sick and we all like to witness Suffering souls She'll sit alone She'll sit alone She'll sit alone She'll sit alone She'll sit alone She'll sit alone She'll sit alone She'll sit alone Honesty wasn't mirrored by justice Devil in the people's court Honesty wasn't mirrored by justice Our city, it falls apart at the core She'll stay there wondering what it's all for Media coverage is bias at best Falsified theories are fucking with everyone's head Cold and still, found in the back room Carnage all over the wall for all to see
Ngl this is a prime example of why I hate guitarists, this part right here is why. 1:57 Literally every song they did this set if it was just the bass in the song they would play something over it and drown it out. Holy shit that kind of stuff makes me so annoyed as it takes away from the song.
This is just the best. Studio like performance, without editing it to be over clean, and without the exhaustion of a normal set and audience energy. Love it.
this is genuinely one of the greatest things I've ever seen, i just found out about these guys and i watched a few other live videos and was already amazed, but bro is doing lead vocals AND playing drums at the same time in this one, and its not an easy drum part at all. this is absolutely insane.
Just found their music, thanks to Apple Music suggestions for “fans of circa survive”… so good, AND YOU MEAN TO TELL ME THE SINGER IS THE DRUMMER!? Dammmmmn, that’s crazy talent.
I just wanted to share with you, I went to a Hail concert (VIP) today!!!! I was in the front row and it was amazing, absolutely amazing :''''') They didn't play Dead Messages (so I will continue to play your upload on a loop as always💖) but I got to give Donovan a fan letter and a bunch of art I made for the band. He was walking by me from outside the venue after playing acoustic guitar for everybody and then I held it out to him and he looked at me and I tried to stick the envelope between his fingers and he was smiling and said "Thank you! :)" and took it. I hope he looks at it cause I wrote some embarrassing long heartfelt letter and like 6 or 7 drawings. And anyway I am maybe gonna try to upload some concert vids little by little. I recorded on like three different phones cause one was running out of space, the other battery dying, but it was such an amazing time. I got a good balance of keeping the camera in a mostly good angle without having to look through it, so I could fully experience it at the same time as recording it. I also recorded a couple songs from the headliners, which were all amazing. I recorded some from the stripped down one too, there was actually a point where I slid my phone over with the lock screen set to my Q&A questions bc I have a voice disability so I wouldn't be loud enough to shout my questions. Aric was like "I'm not touching that bc covid" and I was thinking to myself oh fuck that was a bad idea, I shouldn't have slid my phone there. But then Dovoan picked it up and answered one of my questions (I had another question written, he didn't answer it at first, so I was spending the rest of the time panicking thinking it was a bad question and he hated it. But after the Q&A, he came up to me and said "hey you had another question right?" And answered it, directly to meee 😭. I was thinking "oh my god he's right in front of me, talking to me, my question wasn't bad after all!!!!!" that I kinda missed some of what he was saying, but I remember the main part. My question was "how do you deal with playing songs that carry really heavy emotions" basically and he was so kind to answer it right to me personally like that after the Q&A had already ended :') ). Sorry for the long comment I just thought it would be cool to share that bc I am always playing your Hail concert uploads 💖💖💖💖 and lowkey I listen to this one more than the studio version 😂
