finger eleven - Drag You Down

[@nightfang175]

I like how the bassist is all chill and stuff, like everyone else is all dancing weird, and just generally being weird and the bassist is all, "hey, I'm just happy to be here, don't mind me". Great song and great band also.

[@BrainDeadNed]

That's how everyone use to jam with their instruments back then especially in the alternative and nu metal scene. Everyone else was to worried about messing up their emo bangs lol

[@leestaggers2583]

Been listening them since high school in the mid 2000's. I always loved watching the bass player, in every video, just chill in the back and do his thing, watching his pals go nuts. Always makes me laugh.

[@mrflipperinvader7922]

He definitely is the most chill of the group

[@CarleBrisson]

One of the most perfectly executed music videos of all time. Love all of the focal lengths and camera angles and camera shakes that follow the music to a tee. Awesome job!

[@CarleBrisson]

Forgot to mention. I saw you guys in 2003 at the Corel Centre in Ottawa. I was there to see Ozzy and had never heard of Finger 11. You left a permanent mark on me. I recognize talent when I see/hear it! Good job guys!

[@AWF1000]

Sean is probably one of the most underrated bass players I've ever heard. should get more recognition. his bass tells a story in alot of finger eleven songs.

[@SayHelloToTheRobots]

and it's always clearly audible in the mix, even on The Greyest of Blue Skies with heavily distorted guitars

[@MindstormRecords]

This is the Finger Eleven I remember and love, and that's that!

good old classic. this was the first song I heard by them and first time I discovered them. I was 10 or 11 at the time. Going to be seeing them live for fist time in July!

[@LucidVision1]

Band is criminally underrated, it's a crime I say!

[@The_Real_Frisbee]

Wow, I had no idea Finger Eleven used to be like this. They remind me of Stained. Used to be hard and now they're not.

[@DNashvegas]

yeah imagine the shock of knowing them from 'the greyest of blue skies' and hearing 'paralyzer' on the radio for the first time lol

[@DNashvegas]

it was good stuff.. I still have it and listen to a few songs from it from time to time.. brings me back to being a 17 year old kid (where the time go?) lol

[@DNashvegas]

jatyreous of that time it was a great album.. just like Staind's dysfunction album

[@Ishiinrue]

+Frisbee I believe what many bands don';t share with It's consumers throughout the years for the reason hard rock goes soft; maturity. With wisdom comes less aggression. Truths like, violence begets more violence. Victim mentality lyricism is void of solutions that keep an individual harboring resentment, by being incapable of forgiving. Lastly, the awareness of the power of influence. It's great to relate to a countless number of dysfunctional youth, but why continually fuel hatred/bitterness when the outcome is well understood?... This clearly doesn't apply to everyone. Just my observations over the years along the spectrum of Rock.

[@The_Real_Frisbee]

Ishiinrue Oh I agree with you 100%. That's my argument against haters of the new-age Korn. When the older Korn albums came out, Jonathan was in a bad frame of mind. He grew up and isn't as full of hate, and that is apparent in their music. I'm all for growing with bands as they change their frame of mind, as long as the music is still to my liking. If a band changes their style of music (i.e. Trivium going more power-metal in their last album) than I simply won't listen to it. I'll give it a chance, but that's the thing with music, it's all subjective. In the same breath though, you can still have awesome heavy music even though it doesn't have self-loathing and hateful lyrics. Just look at Gojira.

[@Violencincarnate]

Think yall said it all, but damned do i agree. Us vs them vs the Fans or whatever was one of the signs of the apocalypse.

[@ImshadyKurtinz]

This album was so awesome!! I saw them on tour for it at Prairieland Park in Saskatoon, SK. I forget who they played with.
