@nosebergs-are-at-it-again Or. Maybe it's just universal and he happens to be Christian lol. "Love" isn't a Christian construct. It's a human and learned one.
Okay so after seeing them live last night in Denver I can now saw that this band is the fucking shit. I absolutely am in love with them. And not only the beats make me love them; it's the lyrics. I am obsessed with Ancient Aliens, 2012, and how humans are half monkey, half alien, and half fucks. Oh, and zombies. And then I find a band that sings about all my obsessions! It's my wildest dream come true! I'm not super weird! There are cool people like me :D. Take me with you to space Aaron.
Sometimes the best Indie Rock needs to remain un-known. Once a band goes mainstream, the record label tries to change their unique style, turn them into a sellout and they become nothing like the amazing, moving music they used to be! Awolnation needs to stay the way it is, because for the true Indie fans out there, Awolnation is un-touchable!! - LET THE AWOLNATION LIVE ON!!
from the first moment until my last, I am grateful for every moment of hope or pain. just chill. in the end none of it matters, only the in between and the others who encounter one such as you in that time.
when i see videos titled "top ten songs that sound happy but are actually sad/depressing" am i the only who thinks "every awolnation song ever"? its amazing how healing thisusic is and damn i love it.
The people listening for the last time are the people who either go deaf of they have some other reason for not being able to listen. He's thanking them for listening for their fist time listening, or listening again, or for some reason the last time they'll be able to listen to it.
Anybody who illegally downloads this mans music is horrible! Great artists deserve great support! Lets get possibly one of my favorite artists of the decade into the light!
With over 300,000 followers on Facebook, They don't look to me like no one knows of them. His lyrics would be considered too revolutionary for lot of people in the media and government.
They do sound different, but I think it's awesome they do. Fucking Mumford and Sons, all that shit sounds the same. I can actually tell apart these songs and it sounds AMAZING :)
@Hoooray4Kade By forced, i meant every time you go out with your friends to drink coffee, go to the mall you have to listen to the same lame songs, when masterpieces like this remain only on youtube.. I simply don't get people these days!
good point sir. But if it were not for itunes pricing this high, they wouldn't get to be really rich, which in the end of the day is what most musicians aim for. Although i never buy off itunes but instead of the artist websites etc..
@cgchid2 Enough with these "shut up and listen to the music" comments, ironically for some reason they are becoming more annoying than the other comments.
@StingerRecords You started off right, then you got wrong. They sing about things the industry isn't trying to promote yes but that's not what it is. Generally, the industry determines what a band will sing about once they see the potential. There are many mainstream bands that will sing about society and how people are sheep and that we should stand out/stand up, be who we want/are, don't be in the "bubble" so to say, etc.
Im sorry but how can someone criticize a track by calling it mainstream?? A track or band becomes mainstream if lots of people like the music and buy it sending that band or singer onto big tours and record sales. So by saying a track sounds mainstream is saying that its so good that it sounds like it will be very popular. Every band has an influence so there will be slight similarities but I haven't heard this stuff in the charts before, its all manufactured beiber. Its a very welcome change!
Look people, both this song and Sail are awesome. Let's agree and all be fans of Awolnation. If you don't like Sail go complain about it on one of the Sail videos, not this one. And for those of you who are arguing about it in the comments below, it is just an opinion. People can think Sail is good or bad. It's ok.
@srslydontgiveashit The number '720' stands for the 720 horizontal scan lines of display resolution (also known as 720 pixels of vertical resolution), while the letter p stands for progressive scan or non-interlaced. When broadcast at 60 frames per second, 720p features the highest temporal (motion) resolution possible under the ATSC and DVB standards. GG though.
The only reason videos and songs like this never make it big is because they talk about something else than what the industry is trying to promote. They talk about society and how we're all constrained to a bubble we don't really consciously know is there. It's time to wake up. That's what this music is about. Can't have people thinking outside the bubble now, can we...
@BigFatPandas Awolnation started as a solo project of Aaron Bruno but it is now a full band: Aaron Bruno - Vocals Christopher Thorn - Lead guitar Kenny Carkeet - Rhythm guitar, keyboards, backing vocals David Amezcua - Bass guitar, backing vocals Hayden Scott - Drums
hell yyea great f********kin great shit lol i love this band i akready sent it to over 3o people hahaha ill make this band exppoldeded with people listeing to this shit thnose 30 people are going to spend it to 30 people and so on so froth ill spread the love all day
@SageExtreme Mainstream music doesnt have to be autotuned ... If you're being sarcastic I can't tell. And most modern music has some adjustments done to it. Thats why live recordings sound different than studio recording usually. Some bands just overdo it.
Just a notice:All awolnation vids have a rly tiny dislike bar.The only vids that have similar dislike bar are the vids with music of 90's(best music decade ever).So you figure out the conclusion on your own people. :)
I disagree. Itunes scams anywhere from 99 cents to 1.29$ per song. The really rich bands, while they deserve their fame and money, are completely loaded and making tons more off their songs. They should be atleast far cheaper.
@DracXBelmont alright now that you have working speakers its pretty simple, try listening to Soul wars, I think thats one song that 720p makes a large difference, you cant even hear the hi hat in it without 720p on.
@StingerRecords please shut up lol. "videos and songs" like this???? this band is pretty big, and is routinely played on mainstream radio. you're comment is correct about alot of music, but not this band. sorry.
@djakemcpherson Same here man I heard Sail on the radio and I was like what is this?! Which has led me to this band and this album. Going through it for the first time and it's simply.....AWESOME!
We were born to rage!! This song defines my life and every snide, rude, INSULTING comment , no longer matters. Don't kill me for saying this cristain haters who can't just shut up, but AMEN!
Snail? ... Snail??? I honestly can't tell if you're being serious or not...! ANyway. I think Sail's pretty good. This is pretty awesome, too. It's all a matter of differing tastes, no?
Okay so I have been listening to Dessa and Paper Tiger. I checked out Doomtree and like some of it but... there are other bands like these folks out there right? Beyond the Flobots?!
@QueenGoesYT do you know what it stands for? or are you just trying to make dude feel dumb because he doesn't and you're BS-ing us all cause you don't know either?
@StingerRecords ok, this is awolnation's first album, and it came out less thn half a year ago, and this wasn't ever released as a single as far as I'm aware...
