Feeling nostalgia in 2020 anyone? Good days these were.

[@cat-in-mask]

Good times good vibes! Alexisonfire forever

[@juggernautproduktion]

And still remembering those awesome days. 2004 for me. Can remember key events in my life from that year like it was yesterday. This album was definitely a soundtrack of the era, amongst others of course. Wow. Drumming along like it was yesterday. Man.... long live Alexis.. peace from Australia! 🤘🏿🤘🏿🤘🏿

[@nicholasbrassard3512]

fucking right bro

[@willysanchez5444]

The best days

[@zevlic]

yes

[@Turb1ne]

This came out almost 20 years ago, I rememeber. I absolutely vibed to this so hard in high school in the Netherlands but no one shared my enthusiasm for it. God that was lonely lol.

[@lucaspesalaccia8846]

You are not the only one. I felt the same in my high school. I'm from Argentina! :B

[@officerbarrymccochinerpcpo7906]

If I remember correctly, Pulminary Archery came out first. I loved it. But when this one came out next, it was UNDENIABLE!

[@justincook1736]

I turned a lot of people in Michigan into this band at that time, 44. Caliber love letter was a powerful one too

[@dissimulado]

Imagine listen this in high school in Brazil. Literally no one understand the vibe lmao

@@christopherroth86 Every generation says that about their generations music. It really isn't that deep. If you go out of your way and look for new music instead of listening to whatever is on the radio then imo were in a golden era of a billion genres all at our finger tips. Much better than the 90s where we were only fed what the record labels approve and home recordings were unlistenable

[@steveh12able]

you mean the old sound they had?

[@ericdrisgula3879]

Yeah bro I hear you, I miss this who period in time , so many great bands, so many awesome shows , every Friday there would be a shpw at this little club near where I used to live. Those were the best years of my life and I'll never lose those memories. So much good music but so few people ever heard it and knew about it , being part of that whole scene back then was like a secret society almost , we all lived for the underground shit bands that simply made good music didn't matter if they only played local venues and had an LP out or if they'd "made it big" and actually played the bigger venues and wrote multiple albums , I loved them all the same but especially Alexis on fire , always loved their sound and music, especially their earlier few albums, they were literally one of a kind never heard another band like them.

[@joeyclemenza7339]

i hate to say this because it makes me feel so fucking old... but... i'm 38 now... i wish i could just go back to these times and do it all over again. the times when i was young, fresh out of college, liberated, arrogantly confident, getting tattoo'd. just starting my masters, getting laid, getting drunk, partying with good friends, with new friends i met every week....and during the day, all the while going from class to class over at UT, riding my bike from pearl street to the main campus listening to the album i used to call "two girls staring intensely still just before a knife fight." a silly title, i know.... it just sounded like the most emo title i could think of, as i was only listening to a bootleg tape (yes, tape) of what a friend of mine gave me... which he copped from Limewire. Early 2000's weren't as different as today, actually. goddamm.... those were good times.... i miss Austin, i miss. I miss Alexisonfire.... i miss my youth.... straight up, enjoy it while you can kids. it's over so fast, and that's not just a cliche thing to say.

[@sourceCode12]

Thanks, at 31 I felt old but seen. I was blasting this the other day and got w look from a dude in his 60s and all I thought was "these are oldies now buddy"

[@juggernautproduktion]

Well said man. It’s crazy how absolutely relatable in so many ways what you said is. In obviously completely different experiences from the other side of the world, I resonate so much with what you’re saying and have lived those very words in different ways. I turn 34 at the start of March, and it’s this almost lump in my throat when I come back to goodies like this that I had so much connection with, every time, and literally hear the memories and could cry. At the innocence and naivety. It’s this awesome, beautiful, but sad nostalgic mindset and moments and experience. I do it often. And you’re right to the younger gen, live it while you can. We lose close people over these almost 20 years that seem like 5 mins. People we share experiences and now beautiful memories with. 10 years just goes, mark my words. The same words that were said to me as a teenager. Cherish friends. Let go of bad fruit. Love, and don’t worry, you’ll love again and be loved. Life’s hard. But we are all these incredibly unique beings that can tolerate this here human experience, well mostly anyway. Don’t give up on being good. Try. Learn. Give. Laugh. Experience!

[@dankorrey5560]

@@juggernautproduktion Just turned 34. I saw them for the first time in 2003 when they and Death From Above were opening for Billy Talent when they just broke out. George tackled a security guard and we all rushed and jumped the barricades and moshed on stage with them. As you said, this just makes me want to go back to those days, just for the music. Nothing else about that time in my life was great, but watching this just makes me remember how the music made me feel, and I don't think anything else will ever match that.

[@nicholasbrassard3512]

I feel you so hard man...

[@DavidGonzalez-cl1fz]

dude, i m gonna cry, i miss my youth too

[@skadiorcanic]

Alexisonfire IS JUST STILL DOPE AF

[@thatshitcray]

Everything before this latest album might be dope AF. Will go see them still, just for when they play anything not recent.

[@Jawsmartin]

One of my favorite things about AoF is the 3-layered singing of Dallas in foreground, George in background, and Wade coming in as a sort of break or echo. Perfect examples at 1:40-1:55 and 3:00-3:10

[@wunderkeys9752]

Another example can be heard in 44 caliber

[@barehardjeremy]

the guitar layers are also actually pretty good considering how young the band were

[@chrisrobertson5844]

👍

[@ByGeorge846]

A part of our heritage.

[@walkerdrums1]

It is insane to me that I’ve been listen to this band for 20 years. I saw the video for “Pulmonary Archery” on OnDemand in 8th grade, and then got that first album the next day…been hooked ever since. Watching this video takes me back!!

[@APPEALtoFEAR]

[@PMLNZ]

One of my favourite music videos of all time. I first discovered AOF when I moved to Canada from NZ and this was the first song that hit me like a .44 calibre shot straight through my heart!

[@xtrevoreonx]

I've always loved this video. Everyone looks like they had such a good time! Good memories. Good vibes.

My band used to cover this song in highschool and ive never had so much fun playing music in my life

If you were there for it you know just how fucking magical and beautiful it was love from the deep south in the US

[@SkIzOjImBo]

I never was a fan of this band but that song and this clip is pure gold. Watch the old live version of this song guys. It's almost 2 times faster and it's just a madness performance.

[@APPEALtoFEAR]

I wish that more people had an attitude like yours when it comes to music.

[@SkIzOjImBo]

@@APPEALtoFEAR I listen to evetything except rap and country (but Eminem and Johny Cash are cool). To Mozart, to Dying Fetus, to Adele, to Queen and Kataklysm. I don't know why people restrain themself with 1 or 2 types of muzik. But I'm dressed as a metalhead. Metal and classic muziks are (for me) the most subtile and complicated songs but I love almost everything.

[@APPEALtoFEAR]

​​@@SkIzOjImBoOnce again , I wish that more people had an attitude like yours. I agree with you 100% I consider myself a music lover in general. So I feel that It is quite silly to limit your taste in music for some dumbass arbitrary reason. That is the biggest thing I dislike about alot of metal fans. They are so close-minded and take themselves *WAY* too seriously.

[@SkIzOjImBo]

@@APPEALtoFEAR my friends are all metalheads that loves various types of muzik. It's like the religion question : is life a cosmic physical hasard, or is it the will of a cosmic conscience...i don't know and I never will. Both have their logic arguments so I believe in nothing but myself and carry on with my life. I don't think it's good for the mind to always stand in a single clan. If there is an omnipotent consciousness somewhere, I hope he enjoy all muzik. I love tunes like 99 luftballoons and girls wanna have fun, I have no limit and too bad if others can't like it, their loss.

[@chrisdavey5530]

this video is so 2000s and canadian, i love it, clearly the entire production went like this "ok we just saw the warriors, so were doing that, clearly no objections, we have a budget of $3 and my uncles garage, so call your friends and since its the 2000s one of you need to do something with a skateboard, anything, literally does not matter, but were not posers so you cant just stand there with it"

[@Zaes223]

funny i always thought it was a reference to the Gangs of New York since this video and the movie came out in 2002 but this Video came out before so it had to have been the warriors
