Raised Fist - Friends And Traitors (Official Video) 

Noticing all these changes Widening our fucking ranges Writing down all these pages Usually filled with rage when I jump onto the stages I've been demolishing your bullshit for ages This time I'm breaking it, our friendship, your smile See you in the city while you are faking it From Hertz Island we expanded Never delivered or landed More than the label demanded Competition telling us to follow those guidelines, and to stay right handed But music comes from the heart, lyrics from my head to my hand, and I 'm left handed My friend watch out for the traitors I see them but I try to close my eyes for the haters My name is Alexander The Raised Fist commander The unsinkable ship never stranded Not trendy, not even branded, 16 years and never disbanded From Hertz Island we expanded And I try to keep myself sober Until the tour is over Think I've grown a bit older I'm burning inside, but my outside is much colder Competition telling us to follow guidelines, to stay right handed Music from the heart, lyrics from the head to my hand and I'm left handed

The lyrics are great, "Competition telling us to follow guidelines, to stay right handed. Music from the heart, lyrics from the head to my hand and I'm left handed."

I absolutely love Alexander's voice. His screams are so unique and make their songs seem refreshing. They really stick out from all these tons of bands with the same generic vocalists.

2021 and still kicks like thousand hammers.

Wow. What a power. I found it accidentally on my Spotify. My face turned into a smile within a few seconds. Very unusual for a song I hear the first time!

It really amazes me that this band have never let me down! They have kept their integrity up to this day, which is close to 20 years. This is the only band in the entire world that deserves our fullest respect!

amazing band! they combine hardcore with metal...the perfect sound! I remember when I bought "you´re not like me" 15 years ago...and they get from album to album better! CONGRATULATIONS!

This guy is my Brazilian jiu-jitsu coach and he's a fucking beast. Such a helpful and humble guy as well!

One of the most original and amazing band of the HC music ambient in the last 10 years!

New fan! I love this pissed off music, makes me wanna break shit.

Proud to be a swede.. even more proud to have seen them live, and shaken hands with Alexander the frontman. Cant wait to see these guys killing it on stage again

The mad ass thing about this frontman is he can actually pull this studio vocals off live .. if not better so easy with no strain to be seen . Crazy love these nutters .. November 15 come on Anthems 👊👹🤘🇦🇺

This video makes me want to buy a Polo shirt.

From Hertz Island we expanded, never delivered or landed, more than the label demanded. Competition telling us to follow those guidelines, and to stay right handed but music comes from the heart, lyrics from my head to my hand, and I 'm left handed!!!

Amazing band, always train listening to them

these guys are even more energetic live! if you get the chance defiantly see them

June 2023. Still a great song!

The Legend of ~Pirate Bay~ still lives!!!

just came home from a small concert in Graz...loved those guys before, now even more! Amazing energy. If you haven't seen them yet, you definately missed something in your life.

To everyone complaining about the singer, those dudes are from Sweden, so he probably has a pretty thick accent. But... I think it is pretty bad ass that he can write and sing so well in English. I don't see many native english speakers putting out Swedish language albums.

3 of the best band's in the world are Swedish: 1. Raised Fist 2. Refused 3. Millencolin love them all ! Big love from Scotland !

Great Band, great song, great voice

I love their vocalists voice

Fucking love these lyrics

Funny... first time i heard Raised Fist was in the Finnish school bus 🤣 I love this song!

So true! Almost all my favorite bands are from Sweden! Thank you for making awesome music from me in Norway!

Awesome track, awesome band!

Such an underrated band

Learned about these guys in school. Studied film and we had one of the guys (can't remember the name of him) visit and talk about music video production. This must have been back in 2012!

Seriously, anyone slightly interested in their music needs to see them. I saw them live before I'd properly listened to them and they have such an aura about them. I had to see them again.

Love this band! Really wish I could see them live here in S.A!

i still remember when i first heard them, think it was cheap shots 1, anyway, i was 11 and that was 21 years ago:) still listen to them daily

Found this band after reading a book called “La Rage de Vivre” for school... this is awesome

Why am I just now finding these guys!!??! 😤 😑 late is better than never I suppose. I needed some fresh metal for sure 🤘🔥

Been down with Raised Fist since 94's You're not like me. Love These Dudes

Solid song, solid band!

bought this cd for $3 best $3 i ever spent

Raised Fist rocks! Always felt they deserved more international recognition! I wonder if they ever did any touring or just a live gig or two with the band Refused since both are from Norrland, SWE.

Surprised this kind of music is still around. I can't think of a music genre that sounds more stagnant ..

Would love to see this band live... Awesome

Found you about a RU-vid MergeClip. WTF. Guuuuuuuuuuys!!! Amazing voice, amazing sound!!! U are in my personal band hall of fame. Aktually Number 1... One of the best i´ve ever heard!

Killer song video and band 🤘🏼🔥

i shaved before i watch this video. now all my beards are back.

May 2024.Still a great song!

Alle is one hell of a crazy hardcore vocalist, full of energy! Respect from your motherland Serbia bro, keep up the good energy!

10th July 2016 explosive stage on "exit" festival in Serbia :) can't wait :)

this song pumps me up..... YEAH!!!

Still holds up 100

Amazing talk yell... just speaking to us in YELL... and even better scream when he sings the amazing song..

My name is Alexander, the Raised Fist commander,!!!!

OMG check out the nice DROPKICK kind of at 2:46 !! good stuff

The drum beats in this are epic

Song has been on my workout playlist for 12 years now, damn

I like the part where he yells

Best quote: MY NAME IS ALEXANDER - RAISED FISTS COMMANDER!

cant wait for their new album

this band is the one thing i found from a youtube ad that i liked as a punk metal head

This song is basically what my ADD makes me feel like when I am not zoning out. Maaaannn I cannot stop listening to it on repeat!!

I lost count of how many times I pressed the repeat button by now...

Music Level: SWEDISH

Fucking forgot about this band... This dude has jump kicks on lock

For over 5+ years i have searched for this Bands Video for this Song, finally after over 5 years RU-vid searches listened to my prayers!

HFS....SO MUCH RAGE IN HIS VOICE...FINALLY SOMETHING REAL....

Spotify introduced me to this band. About all I can say good about Spotify...

Considering doing a pushup or two, so that I may someday have that kind of polo shirt game.

September 2024. Still kicking it!!!!

Älskar denna låten. Jag blir glad av den. Och hungrig..

At 0:57 Karl Pilkington has no idea how he ended up in Raised Fist

Got here from the band traitors lol. Not my style of music but still this is fuckin sick lol.

1:54 THAT TRAITOR MOVE !

Love this song, soo good melodics, theres some magic in it!

wow you people are quick to call something terrible because your not used to it. His voice and the music actually sounds good together.

2019.

"My name is Alexander Raised Fist commander"

2:47 impressive jumping

Förmodligen fetaste låten å videon ever, som tjejen inte får titta på igen.

lead singer is ripped out of his mind good shit

First time: "This dude sounds like hes on helium lol" Second Time: "It sounds good as long as i dont see the singer cause ill just laugh at his voice" Third time: "YEEEAAAARRGHHH!!! >:D"

I’m still here

sometimes its better to get rid of traitors

That is one of uniqueness of Metal. Scream.

....He merely stated his opinion, he was not trying to dictate what you should or should not listen to..

Anyone else think the guitarist looks like Karl Pilkington?

I miss piratebay

this kicks seem to reach up to trumps chin ^^

A long while back, TPB sent me here. Glad they did!

honestly heard like the first 5 secs of the vocals and loved it. I guess I always love different vocalists (loved everything about The Safety Fire as soon as I heard them too).

always hard core anti fascist respect from Poland !161

2:15 - 2:32 vermilion? :D

why are people talking russian? Raised fist is from sweden

Che gruppo!! Grandi!

like hardcore bands like them. just so nice.

..fortfarande en av de bästa låtar någonsin!..fuuuucking epic!!!👊💀👊

Dude has hops for days! Watched it a million times and it still amazes me! Phenomenal song #fangirling

Ok..That's it due to subscribing to your record label EPITAPH RECORDS because of Parkway Drive, I have won the fucking jackpot and found RAISED FIST. For fuck sake where have you boys been hiding, at this point I heard Anthem which blew me away best riffs and structure I've heard since Parkway Drive, and now this song .. Yeah 2 songs and I'm subbing .. I thought it's gonna be a while until someone as cool as fuck as PWD hit the floor. Well fucking Hello the FIST .. I'm on , I'm in...bring that shit .. I've asked the RU-vid nutty legend GALACTICRIMINAL To review Anthem.. as all must hear and see you boys .. blown away .. Ten thousand FISTS in the air for ya..from Australia 🤘👹👊🇦🇺

this sound is suburb, still the greatest

TRUE HARDCORE LEGEND...LOVE THIS BAND FROM THEY FORMED

マジ好きだわこのグルーブ。湧き上がるエネルギー。ライブ行きてー！

Just saw these guys live at Borgholm. Money Well spent.
