DROPOUT KINGS - Scratch & Claw (Official Video) | Napalm Records

[@TylerG60]

These guys don't deserve all this hate. This entire album is pure gold. Great job guys, keep up the great work.

[@elisabethlarsen4282]

These guys dont deserve any hate, i agree. They be doing what every 20+ emo's been dreaming about since the 2000's 😂👍

[@justingeesey753]

People hate, they're bitter, they're elitist, they're close minded. If its not exactly what they like they hate it. Its childish and gross

[@mariogiovanelli9610]

who hates em?TELL ME WHO??🤪THE haters GONNA have a bad day

[@ridgenorthstein8097]

If they hating on this group they still sleepin yo!!

[@badapple4102]

They just got signed with kottonmouth king's label "Subnoize"

[@johnponciano6410]

This is just badass. The bars from the rapper and the screams from the singer. Heavy shit mixed well. I like it honestly. Really do.

[@eliasg.1357]

Discovered them through Spotify recommendations, and damn they are awesome!

[@alchemistthejackal589]

Same, the song Something Awful is a f*n marvel...

[@Capricornio-yz8uc]

Me pasó lo mismo. Gracias Potify, por primera vez aciertas en algo.

[@chemistry_terrible]

Thank you for saying that, keep creating music whatever way that you guys want it’s art fuck what anyone has to say 😭😂

[@theFrozenLiquid7]

that chorus hits like a freight train. love it

[@WrestlingAndWrootBeer]

So called close-minded "true" Metal fans in the comment section complaining and moaning saying that Dropout Kings is not Metal at all, cause it's clear they can't accept something different or a reminder of the era of Nu-Metal that's indeed controversial nowadays. Just stop complaining. And if you don't like this type of Metal music, why the hell are you even here? Go ahead and listen to the other stuff on Napalm Records' YT channel instead of wasting it trashing a band you don't like! Personally, I love this song. Reminds me of early Linkin Park, but just a bit heavier and has a bit more Metalcore influence. I like the sample in the background, the bassline is top notch, the rap sounds solid and has some good flow, and the chorus is pretty catchy. Dropout Kings IMO has a lot of potential to be big, and could IMO start a true Nu-Metal revival, and I wish all the best luck in the world for this up and coming band. BTW, I like that Napalm Records is promoting something different from their bread and butter.

[@FUYO86]

Very well put, mate. The sample is awesome, the drum line is perfect, the guitar is nice and ballsy and the chorus is amazing. All in all, quality stuff IF you like this genre, which I do. If not, look elsewhere.

[@adamramey5077]

I can’t believe I didn’t see this comment until now. Thanks so much for that really means a lot

[@aimansal6365]

Just now discover this band. Not my type of genre but they did really well. They got my attention.

[@vacountryboy2620]

I really dig they're sound. We needed something different

[@unholymiloskie7154]

Dude you know what's up :D

[@kharizma1734]

Man this music is actually amazing, perfect combo of rap and metal balanced so well even instrumentally having a hip hop beat with some jagged riffage

[@stevenflores3040]

What the Hell!!!! Why have I never heard of these guys. I just heard them today and they F**k**g ROCK. I definitely want to hear more.

[@maddo7192]

Heard them today for the first time. Awesome Band!

[@Alekrion]

50% rap and 50% post-hardcore = win :)

[@Ali-mn3td]

Why all the hate it actually sounds good

[@caramelshorty4154]

Ali we do not like poser.

[@Ali-mn3td]

Caramel Shorty idc what you dont like this sounds good

[@Ali-mn3td]

Caramel Shorty like you wanted something and got something else its not their fault

[@caramelshorty4154]

wenn du das meinst, ali.

[@anatoli1234567890]

they hate it because the true "metal" cant have rap part in it or maybe a black guy. hard to say. music is fine and vocals are good from the rap to the clean screen. is anything metal is in the underground place it is now days because all people want is the old metallica / iron maide , thing is even metallica / iron maide are not the same as in "old good days".

[@ChrisTopher-vh8tu]

I see a ton of people saying “why all the hate” and have still yet to see a negative comment

[@Otherface]

Maybe is because of the like/dislike ratio, which is slightly negative.

[@austiny8437]

god this is so good. it's been on repeat for me all day. it's composed and mixed perfectly. i really hope these guys pop off in 2020

[@eyalbennatan]

I can't stop hearing it One of the best songs I've ever heard 🤷‍♂️

[@Guywithamustachee]

Honestly, don't hate on this band this band is on its beginning stages so don't​ judge them because they have rap into rock. Let them be different and be versatile.

[@scipiolyons9612]

That's exactly why I came here! I'm ready for the Nu Metal revival!

[@KyleKrejdovski]

@@scipiolyons9612 Nu-Metal for life, frreal

[@SecretWeapon62578]

Personally, I don't have any problem with the rap vocals. I just thought the instrumental and sung vocal elements were pretty generic and uninteresting.

[@vitorrodriguespereira2347]

New fan from Brazil. Congratulations guys

[@melbus30]

DROPOUT KINGS are awesome, they are definitely heavy rock with a touch of metal, screamo and rap in there. I love the mix!! Oh and Adam I wanna say to you and all the band member congrats on the new album release. You all came a long way, super happy for all of you!! See you on F.B. Melody! :)

[@fleshsuitman]

It's blegh rap. That's not an insult it's a sound

[@nicholasdoloroso1049]

We needed a band with linkin park vibes. No ones ever done it like LP. They are there own sound. . These guys remind of linkin park. Good job fellas.

[@ChristopherSmith-ev8mm]

From ashes to new

[@BrandName440]

All their songs are dope asf, everyone I have heard yet is amazing

[@mowgli1508]

I saw Dropout Kings at the Chance in Poughkeepsie Ny a few years before covid they killed it. Great live band with a list of shreds. Had a huge crowd moving

[@nicolecowan4660]

These guys are amazing live. Saw them with Otep. Keep on making music guysss!!!

[@deiselnoe1]

Went to an otep show , they came on right before heard/saw this band for the first time ever goddamn these guys can put on a show, they're amazing bought the lead a drink these guys are awesome

[@jessycruz2465]

Underrated band.

[@SuperDragonku]

This group came into my music playlist in June of 2021 I am going through a rough time in my life and these guys got lyrics I can relate to with my struggles. You guys rock 🤘 keep up the music and fuck all the haters!

[@Daffmeister187]

The length of that 2nd verse is insane, and the delivery is impeccable throughout! Outstanding song by the whole band!

[@cursedbykarma9300]

Me and my daughters blast DOK in the car all the time. They make me happy to be from AZ. Keep kicking ass Adam! In love with the art you guys create. P.s. make some merch in female fits pleassssse.

[@TheBaronnashor]

One of the best tracks I listened to this year, soo huge expectations for the Album, keep it up!

[@AidanKriebel]

I come back to this song a lot, it has done a lot for me and I really needed to hear it again. So much meaning. Dropout Kings, this song has kept me sane

[@dxve5729]

This song helps me get through tough times. Thank you.

[@mateusdossantos6053]

This sounds perfect to me. It mixes screamo and a little rap, looks like linkin park in the gold times (hybrid theory, reanimation and meteora). It's not like heavy metal, but more like new metal, it sounds so good. It's a pity to think fans are forcing them to do only heavy metal sound. I think that because the amount of dislikes, I can only think that is the reason, and it is unfair, the band must do the sound they want, let it be.

[@EvilCrash3000]

Woow i am incredibly surprised by the amount of dislikes. This song is great.

[@bryanlenihan5012]

Monk Same

[@RichardGAG]

Its because people are whiny kids. If you would show half these people the metal from late 80's/early 90's they would call it Rock. People live in their bubble of time and don't realize that metal has so many fucking subs..

[@curioussoul7497]

Seriously, Im addicted to this song! :)

[@Frobbl]

It's uploaded on Napalm records, a metal label. Metal fans are the most ridiculous close-minded fans out there. They love hating nu-metal. It makes them feel like some kinda elite club.

[@noacog4u320]

@@cb-zc8dv well I wouldn't say they're as bad as kpop fans, I haven't seen any metal fans send people death threats.

[@stefandahlhoff4090]

Can feel this early (hed)p.e and Linkin Park vibes during pumpin this! Great tune

[@samuelkendrick9626]

It's like hed and linkin park just whipped your ass in a Denny's parking lot at 3am.

[@mikedynasty77]

I love this band and I look forward to hearing their other songs and albums! It's crazy to think metalcore and rap could be blended this well.

[@xEL5TERx]

Sounds realy good. Metalcore meets Rap. Its fucking awesome.

[@sj4ck]

Audiodope is one of my most anticipated albums. I fucking love these guys and i cannot wait to get my hands on the new album!

[@bepisthebenis5111]

Linkin park’s idea mixed with dance gavin dance, soaked in limp bizkit’s mood

[@gogolisukisuki]

This is the way to go...made me feel good.

[@kroostyjuglerrz8635]

The harmony in the chorus makes this song. Love the changing intervals for the last repeated line. Really smart writing. Album has some fuckin bars on it too

[@NekosTubeChannel]

I have never heard anything like this before. Absolutely love the style. Keep doing that it sounds absolutly awesome!

[@licentiousdreams]

Never listened to linkin parks early stuff? This is exactly that to a tee.

[@Gampeen]

This band reminds me so much of Linkin Park like pre-hybrid theory, this band has a lot of potential in the nu metal genre

[@frankreinhardt3400]

I love nu metal but i hate this. Would call this metalcore?!

[@Gampeen]

Frank Reinhardt I would say modern nu-metal, but hey , to each their owm

[@grizzlymanverneteil4443]

This definently is not nu metal. Its just generic metal core mixed with a good rapper.

[@BlastBreaker]

This is rapcore, guys

[@MachineF39kinHead666]

Wow I'm pleasantly surprised new fan here

[@Stratton1177]

So much unnecessary hate here, wow. If I heard this song and didn't see the comments, I would've guessed they'd be more positive than this. This is some good shit, I dig it. Don't listen to the hate. Wrong label I guess :/

Hell yea, this is dope. Nu-metal is under appreciated and i wish the best for these guys. Rage against the machine would be proud

Am I the only one who sees people complaining about people who think this is trash, but cant see the people who "trash" this video. 😅😅

saw these guys at earthday birthday on saturday and they did not disappoint. the two singers were in sync and got the crowd moving. keep up the good work guys.

[@srghma]

vctms, omerta, Diamond Construct and dropout kings - best in 2020

[@gabed.7684]

Haters, get outta here! You don't have to dislike and throw shit at the artists' work just because you don't like it, you can easily go and listen to your favourite songs and ignore what's outside your area of preferences. And yes, I like this song in particular, I'm not familiar to this band, just heard them a few times only, but I find this catchy. As well, you can call me poser or whatever you like, I don't care, I don't consider myself a rocker, or a metalhead or anything like this, I just listen to my favourite music genre, which is rock and all his subgenres (which includes metal, in case you don't consider this "shit song" metal).

[@knight3481]

[@johnc2591]

I personally have been listen to death metal/ screamo whatever the fuck you wanna call it for as far back as I can remember. Im totally into this shit I have always appreciated when a different genre tries something else, for example “body count” Ice-T’s heavy metal band love em cause I can appreciate him trying something new but keeping his lyrical twist to it. I think it’s idiotic that anyone can hate on this because the lead vocalist is black though I haven’t read many comments but if they’re out there y’all are clowns this guys got a great voice, sevendust, fire from the gods, killswitch engaged all bands with african lead vocalist who have fuckin great voices so it should have nothing to do with the color of ones skin

It's like Fred Durst and the ghost of Chester Bennington joined P.O.D and made a new Hybrid Theory album. And I fucking love it! Nu Metal thirst has been quenched🤘

[@Doomjrx2]

This sounds pretty good, aside from the seemingly muffled vocals. The rap sections were good, but I feel like the rest doesn't necessarily keep up. Which is fine, this is only one out of many songs. Shame that all these "true metalheads" have to be here acting like 12 year olds though. This kind of shit is why the metal community kinda sucks. Really, if you don't like something, that's fine. But you don't need to be telling other people they can't like it, or saying that it's not real metal or something. You are not the authority on that. You should try to give fair criticism about the song, rather than saying stupid shit like "Durr, this suck, no real metal!" It's people like that who give the metal community a bad name.

[@totalrecall420]

Frikin awesome I love these guys. Glad I found your music

[@codywar1384]

Still very underrated. It saddens me that there aren’t more people into this.
