Fair To Midland "Musical Chairs" official video / Album July 12th

[@HotRod12667]

That bass line!

[@bernardcandela2852]

Please, come back FTM. Jesus, I miss these guys so much...

[@NotSean666]

+Yonatan Zemel It's just not the same :/

[@bernardcandela2852]

Sean Greeley Exactly, Erstwhile are not bad but... ad you said, it's just not the same

[@PB-tk4uu]

Discovered this band on monday, WHY ONLY NOW?!?!?!?! And to my demise....they quit. This is the shit! So sad..... The world needs more music like this

[@PB-tk4uu]

Best comment ever. Thanks

[@kylecasey7684]

henry crun sad but this is probably true. Fables of a Mayfly and this album were two of the most inventive rock albums I've ever listened to. I know that they were initially signed to Serjical Strike, Serj Tankian's record label that was intended for bands that might not otherwise get any attention at all - but I am not sure of their entire history.

[@Periphery]

FUCK. YES. Just you guys wait for the album. Its one of my favorite records ever, just so fucking good!!

[@0kei230]

holy shit it's Periphery

[@Shenaniman]

Holy shit It's Periphery

[@RasheedKhan-bm8fm]

That bass line is one of the most badass I ever heard in my entire life.

[@AMaleficOtter]

Aarcvard Kray Yeah right ?

[@alexmurphy5289]

Unique, groovy, perfectly placed, just incredible work.

[@markitzero4777]

The keys player wrote it

[@j88k001]

And that fucking BASS LINE.....

[@HotRod12667]

Damn straight!

[@everydaycebuanolife4716]

The group's demise does not outweigh the beautiful music they've created and will forever live on to the hearts and ears of those individuals who truly appreciate great quality piece of sonic poetry such as this.

[@Shadow_onpawz-v2t]

The worst thing is that this band fell apart right before everyone wanted to listen to em

[@brandoncooper7432]

Jonathan Zemel i just listened to that song. I like it but they're too original. If there's anything that the industry is afraid of, it's an original band. I love this kind of music because it doesn't sound like anything else. I've listened to and loved fair to midland for over a decade now and it seems like I catch something new every time I listen to them. They'll go down in history as one of the most underrated bands in history

[@baguru6146]

not quite, loved 'em for years and was blessed to see them in Aus before they broke. World don't deserve them if they didn't make them famous then.

[@soundofmuzakk]

2020 and listening this masterpiece again.

[@Jay_Echelon]

I've onlyjust discovered them I'm blown away. Why didn't I know about these years ago 🥲

[@ignoblesavage5559]

@@Jay_Echelon because someone in your life was an arsehole, i guess. me to...had to trip over them here on YT back in 2010. favorite band ever now. even with just 3 "real" albums out (a fourth, their very first, was a FAR cry from the style everyone who loves them is familiar with).

[@rheyuna4709]

My life will never be complete until FTM is back together.

[@thewordbeliever]

+Laura Kittel .... I agree... There A hole In My soul Where the Fair To Midland Goes...

[@richardriordan2138]

Still listening to this on repeat almost a decade later...

[@zacktaylor3796]

God one of the best bands of all time. I miss them so Much. This was my childhood

[@gregcoomer1775]

Amazon music said you might like these.....bloody right!

[@ToWhomItMayBand]

If and when you come back, we would be honored to open for you dudes

[@DownFromAbove]

Incredible band - discovered them too late!

[@RodrigoFelipe01]

Down From Above me too :-(

[@shuyaku99]

i still love this band, miss em

[@theQiwiMan]

Instantly loved this song the first time I heard it, and now every time I listen to it again I just love it more! Freakin awesome.

[@MRPSWELLING]

Ive been a fan for over six years now. I know, and can play every song right down to the last lick. I fronted a band in DFW Texas for five years. I havent been playing with a band for a couple of years now and I miss the magic of playing live more than anything. Ive watched you grow very closely and have played your music to literally hundreds. I feel like I know you all, and in a way I do.I get teary eyed and my heart swells with pride when I watch this video.IM SOFAKING PROUD OF ALL OF YOU!

[@paulgibson9936]

Could be kicking the bucket, but.... Oh how true for me a decade or to ago. Still, nice to be reminded that fun remains out there like this song/band. Like coming wishing back again (Band), hope forward.

[@DJKORB1]

Lets start a kickstarter project, I want them back!

[@OakPlanter]

i agree,atm is a big thing starting from internet,they could get their cereer back easily and even something to talk about;we have to find a group of fans to start

[@jordanadair3377]

2024 and I'm still jamming this album. Come back FTM! WE MISS YOU!

[@cannibalkitty76]

I miss you, Fair to Midland. 🖤

[@rockmusictilldeath]

I have not stopped talking about Fair To MIdland since I seen them live. Amazing band and amazing people. so nice and down to earth people. Such sweethearts.

[@Giggle-Cheekz]

I am so relieved that there are still those who are willing to walk their own way and create kickass music.

[@ericaconner5008]

Its 2021... and the music industry still hasn’t recovered from the loss of ya’ll.

[@Jay_Echelon]

I've only just discovered them will they ever get back together? I'm blown away

[@optamellow]

@@Jay_Echelon someday i hope, iirc they only broke up because the singer had a kid

[@blinkzvidz]

Saw them open for 10 Years on Saturday. Glad I got the chance to witness a great performance.

[@optamellow]

that is one killer damn base line

[@TPM4594]

Don't think I miss any band more than this one

[@bronco3181]

I have been listening to these guys ever since one of their first albums, no matter how many times I listen to a song by them, they never get old.

[@danacorbin9148]

Miss these guys. Got to meet them a few yrs bk. Got some walls of Jericho lyrics tattooed on my back. Luv u FTM!!

[@fernandofernandez4211]

I was lucky to see them live in Iowa in 2007. They opened for Chevelle. Been a fan since then. Great show and music.

[@croix89quellochegrida]

Yeah you better thumbs up darroh, this is amazing

[@simoneterranova9075]

Come mai non ho mai visto questo commento? Puoi mettere questo pezzo in un tuo prossimo pezzo?

[@Ciabattomatto]

🔥

[@stormshade6542]

This should have at least 30mio views, damn it

[@Sxcheschka]

Too bad the mainstream doesn't like to listen to talented creations.

[@FioraTheMasquerade]

I love turning the volume as high and I can and just loosing myself to this song, all their music, really. Like... Swimming in an ocean of emotion, chaos, ideas. Love these guys so much.

[@MrXaeb]

FTM please come back and save us from mediocrity. I know you can hear me Darroh.

[@scratchwilderness]

Was really hoping we would get a 10 year reunion tour for Fables....

[@cubturbo]

My friend showed me this song yesterday, first song I've heard by them. Bought this CD today.

[@DEADication86]

I remember seeing these guys open for Dir en grey. My brother joked he was jealous of Cliff's baggy pants. He offered to trade a backstage pass and my brother said, "No I want your pants! They're awesome!" Such an underappreciated band. The lyricism is genius, it's what we need to jumpstart in a world of stagnation in the music industry. How long can you keep going on rocking about angst, drama and BS before getting to what really matters? Moreso, elevating it to the rhetoric that this band does? I can't think of a single band trying to reinvent the wheel more than this one. It's a shame that they were driven apart by circumstances when they could have been among the greatest.

[@RaquelNBermejo]

I can not get over how great this song is, I listen to this song every chance get.

[@TxUSAF]

First time to see or hear FTM on July 15, 2011 at curtain club. Bought Arrows & anchors there and cannot put it down! They are badass!!!

[@irrisorie7]

it sucks so bad these guys aren't around anymore. i found them last year and they're one of my favorite bands now. at least we got two banger albums without a single miss.

[@jasonallengoss]

it has been one of the most rewarding experiences of my life to watch this group evolve into the amazing band that they are now. if you haven't seen them live, you are sadly deprived. best live show if you can do without the smoke and bullshit. their only props are instruments and sometimes toliet paper.

[@Maremons]

These guys must have been drinking Powerthirst. They're uncomfortably energetic. Too energetic for normal music. Love it. Also, just noticed that this was posted on my birthday. Sweet.

[@johnjay1178]

One of the GREATEST bands EVER!!! We got to see them in April in Austin and they were amazing. Got to meet Cliff and Darroh and chat with them for a bit. Great guys, phenomenal voice, wicked bass. All around they are going to be classic timeless. Can't wait to go see them live again : )

[@JapaneseModernist]

What a wonderful song. Thank you for making the world a prettier place

[@therealsechs]

I met them in madison,WI on their last tour. Had seen them previously multiple times. I miss them. This song resonates with me more today then it did before. I found out about them when I saw Dir En Grey at the house of blues in chicago. They were on before the main act. I fell in love with them in that moment. I hope they are all doing well today. I know they had horrible horrible bad luck, bus crash and lost all their instruments. I lost the one shirt I had from them got ruined from someone bleaching it for some reason. I still have the hoodie from the Arrows and Anchor tour, and my girlfriend at the time, now the mother of my child has a shirt signed by all of them. We miss you and wish you all happy thoughts.

[@mnqff]

probably have listened to this song 500 times in the last few days... can't wait for A&A...

[@lapsusgiseldis]

2022 and i can't get tired of this song

[@ninjosh]

It makes you wonder... If shooting for stars is like darts in the dark. It makes you wonder... If the beaten path, Is the promise land. greatest lines in the history of music..

[@ezial49]

One of the most creatives bands nowdays. This song is just perfect.

[@fionajolly5801]

That bass is insane

[@samrizzardo]

PLEASE COME BACK…too good to stop

[@thislostgirlnotfound]

Good song!! I love they way Andrew is "dancing" at the begining of this video. Such energy is great.

[@Hellchen317]

This is absolutely genius!

[@ashmaster92]

I saw these guys live a couple of years ago and I have to say that their live performance was probably on of the most eccentric ones I've ever witnessed. It was....(one could say) awesome. They have real talent that most bands today don't even come close to realizing.

[@Project4113]

Incredible band! These guys are incredible song writers and musicians and have such a unique sound that's unlike any other. By far my favorite band!

[@ChrisLT]

These guys were pretty great live, definitely took me by surprise.

[@mayralopez9385]

Here in 2020. So glad I got to see you 3 times and even got to meet ya. Please come back FTM!!

[@FecesPeces]

Everyone should check out "dance of the manatee" live at that outdoor show. The energy is amazing. The singer climbs the stack and does some sort of dirridigedoo harmonizing thing. It's really amazing. They were so good. With more exposure these guys would've been multi platinum. It's too bad they couldn't keep it together.

[@berserker96]

I think there is an element of funniness, lightheartedness in this video. There are moments where it makes you laugh.That's what makes it so enjoyable. That's what separates Fair to Midland from the usual angry, drudging hard rock we hear so often

[@MunchingOnLemons]

Such a talented bunch of guys, and Darroh's voice, just amazing. Finally got to see them at Hi-Fi in Melbourne and was totally blown away, BEST GODDAMN SHOW! I don't think I could ever be disappointed by them.

[@JamesZ413]

bad ass band saw them when they first dropped their album in 07. Killer stage performance...recommended to all!!

[@oldfordblue1]

Seen these guys live a few weeks ago, the lead singer climbed the speaker tower and swung around upside down off the rafters over the stage. They're all insane and have a ton of energy and put on a hell of a show, go see em in concert if you get a chance, they kick ass.

[@CruiserDog]

Terrestrial radio is over loaded with bullshit and commercials. I hear these guys on SiriusXM Octane all the time. best band out right now. Thanks for the great tunes guys!!!

[@littlebabymeowmeowboo6593]

2022 and I came back because my memories were unlocked 😹 Still love this song to death

[@mhintz34]

Haven't bought an album in probably 5 years, this is going to be the first one that I do buy in that timespan.

[@celt276]

OUT. STANDING. July 12th can't get here fast enough...

[@lexistrong7757]

Im seriously putting together a kickstarter fund to get this band back together!!

[@OakPlanter]

IDK,things could be different with the support of a solid community,they were living of their own sweat back in the days

[@peterPlaysTheGuitar]

The bass just blows my mind on this track...

[@gkb116]

Just bought the new album. Listening to it in 5...4...3...2...

[@undernihilo]

it should be a crime how amazing they are...

[@TheNudeMaker]

I can't even... Beautiful, perfect, flawless.

[@JanusZeal]

Love FTM~ Can hardly wait to see them in concert in July for their CD release show where I am~

[@AFK337]

If Active Rock radio gives this song a chance, it will breathe life into the format like no band before could. If given the chance, this band will EXPLODE.

[@MutableEntity]

I listen to this every morning. The whole album is awesome. There other albums are awesome too.

[@mrks-media]

An eternity has passed before I heard an awesome song with excellent clean vocals!

[@ravenrayne4392]

Priceless bass line and drums FTM

[@RyanLelache]

Couldn't have asked for anything better from you guys. This was just plain incredible - can't wait to see you guys when you're back in the Philly area again!

[@WaveLake]

First off I must say how much I love this band I first herd Dance of The Manatee in a comic book store in Dallas and I automaticly fell in love with their style Secondly I didn't realize how much the singer looks like the singer in Seether this dude is just a little thiner and maybe a little taller anywho love the song and I have aalready pre orderd their album

[@CalculatingInfinity6]

I've been waiting for their new album since 2007. Fables From a Mayfly is one of my all-time favourites and from what I've heard so far in the finished tracks and the demos from 2009, this record is definitely not going to disappoint!

[@MrUnderexcellent]

My GOD. The bassist alone makes this band fun to listen to!

[@j88k001]

Chorus gave me the chills - first time. Insane.

[@triplettgsr]

Fair to Midland is once again my favorite band, cant wait for A&A and the CD release show at The Machine Shop in Flint!!

[@seanobrien648]

I remember seeing them with karnivool in NYC , at Orange county choppers grand opening in Newburgh NY, and a few other times

[@gringochucha]

Fuck, that must have been amazing...

[@patrickwaynecrosby86]

People need to go out and buy "Arrows and Anchors" so that this band can survive and keep putting out AMAZING albums and more AWESOME music videos like this. If ever there were a band that the world needed to HEAR.....well here they are. Lets push these guys as much as we can!!!

[@JapaneseModernist]

Fair to midland is one of the most interesting music groups today. can't wait for the album!

[@AlenRiddickMusic]

I miss these guys

[@footballXcrazyX2012]

where have bassist like been hiding for all these years!!!! that is freakin amazingly awesome bass like just sick riffs

[@TheSecondNature]

other than the awesome bass line, i love the guitarist's GIbson Les Paul Lou Pallo signature. You don't see many of those around

[@harindranvenkatesh]

That just blew my brain out again. What an awesome band. How the hell did I not know about them? My bad - but wow.

[@gregmeyer799]

amazing band, the bass is amazing, lyrics genius and clever, guitar dont even get me started, and the drum pattern is good, but darraohs voice!!!

[@throwsMACHETES]

I can't believe they're not more popular.

[@smokejc]

I love this band so much. I want them to come back, but at the same time I'd just rather see Darroh happy.

[@dirtyuncleross]

The bass on the verses is insanely epic and heavy as hell!!!

[@UnsubmiSive]

i am from winnsborow tx. and sulpher springs is like 20 mins away and i have never heard of them till the other day checkin out music on zune. 903 FTW

[@DilutedJuice]

Super pumped that these guys are coming to the UK in November

[@Kraze422]

Oh sweet baby jesus I was already excited for the new album but now I'm dying for it.

[@bobomchobo]

Can't...stop...watching...

[@myers0819]

im glad that i'm not the only one spreading the news. fair to midland rocks my socks off

[@Mehialltime]

I love that Darroh is acting like himself like in a live performance but I wish Chris would be more like himself because in this video he's calm but live he's usually just as insane as Darroh but still great video and fucking amazing song

[@masonisbetter]

That bass line...

[@j88k001]

My EXACT comment - you beat me to it.....fuck!!!
