It Dies Today- The Caitiff Choir [Full Album]

[@ImBonez]

All the people enjoying this album still are between 30 and 40 years old I'm guessing. *Thanks fir all the replies and love y’all have shown on this comment!*

[@smokeydasharky]

ROFL im 32 and i listen to this on the way to work. FUCK TRAFFIC

[@ImBonez]

[@celsogarcia3180]

I'm 23 and have been listening to it since I was 15! These dudes are amazing!

[@alexdwyer7677]

33 years old and still love this album. In my top 10 for sure. Depravity Waltz was one of the heaviest songs in metalcore when this album dropped. That breakdown like 8 seconds into the song just hits like a freight train. Every song is gold.

[@FEBRIZIOtv]

Check out Nehemiah - Lenore. Also Nehemiah - The Asphixiation Process. Both albums are on KZbin in full

[@zombieepx1933]

@@FEBRIZIOtv 32 and agree. First time I ever heard of it dies today was in 2005 when a good guitar player from my high school was playing riffs from ‘my promise’ in a guitar store testing out a Gibson SG. I fell in love with genre ever since, these guys are way ahead of their time.

[@RobBarrettHunter]

Same bro it’s probably the best ever

[@MichaelBranch-km4rh]

39 relistening now and in heaven

[@MarcusToroian]

Without a doubt. This whole album defined my mid teens, influenced my first successful bands. I saw them 7 times between 2004 and 2008. The first time was with Winter Solstice in Johnstown, PA, on their Caitiff choir tour. It was sold out, absolutely packed. My entire high school metalcore band and all our friends went. Hearing My Promise and The Depravity Waltz live were transformative moments that effected the course of my life. Myself and the other guitarist ended up buying VHT Fatbottom 4x12 cabinets because that’s what they had at the time, and then switched to Basson when they did 🤣 I had moved to drums by that point, so I held on to my VHT longer, and even though our music became more hardcore than metalcore, we were still heavily influenced by these guys. Every time I come back and listen to this album, it takes me back to a very specific time and place in my life. One where the only thing that mattered was being better (and heavier) than the other local bands, having nice live rigs, and going and seeing our favorite bands as often as possible. The best years of my life.

[@benspradlin4046]

Looking back, this album was ahead of it's time.

[@Fullcollapse1]

Yeah it was! Nothing even sow sounds like this album.

[@Groata]

Yeah bro it was and still is amazing

[@RockerFoo92]

i was thinking the exact same fucking thing when i was listening to this on my way home from work

[@smokeydasharky]

fuck work!

[@zombieepx1933]

The pioneers of brutal yet clean metalcore breakdowns

[@critfiend4736]

Dude absolutely shredded his vocal cords for our entertainment.

[@YFZ52]

I miss the early to mid-2000's metal sound. Love this album.

[@rsaldivar8]

Mid 2000s? We arent even close. This is pretty early metal core though. Bleeding through is earlyer though. I listened to metal core back in highschool 2001-2005. That's when it was big.

[@YFZ52]

R Saldivar The 2001 to 2005 you just referred to was exactly what I was talking about in my original comment. I just kept my comment to a general metal category as I'm not a genre snob, just meant all metal, whatever you'd like to call it.

[@snipes0009]

BigNickel This kid is obsessed with genres apparently. I'm with you. Metal = all-encompassing. End of story.

[@rsaldivar8]

snipes0009 I can't disagree...there's few where I'm from but yeah I guess you could say I'm obsessed, with music. I play guitar, drums, bass, I'm a musician obsessed with music. More obsessed with death metal and correcting people when they need help. I'm not a Dick at all in person though

[@rsaldivar8]

snipes0009 kid? Lmao...I'm 30 man, been playing since 13 years of age

[@EriktheRaids82D]

So proud to have been apart of a music scene that produced this quality shit right here. True pathfinders of the genre 👌🤘👌🤘

[@snakehawk8164]

[@chemicalimbalance7030]

You 41 and still jamming this now?

[@jakebailey9884]

[@RakieemF]

Best song on this album is Defeatism hands down. It is so atmospheric. Then the fade out to that silent hill outro is pure bliss...

[@DennisFeinsteinCEO]

My favorite as well

[@Sick_Boy]

Goddamn, the Trustkill heyday was amazing. Sooo many legendary bands and albums... 🤘😤🤘

[@HospitalMusic]

This shit gave me fucking goosebumps I love this whole album. I'm fucking 27 this was my shit back in HS.

[@BannWorthRulz]

+HospitalMusic Same

[@marshdtk]

+HospitalMusic totally !!! first saw a video of them on headbangers ball some show they used to have on mtv bet you know it

[@dylanvalorfall]

Same bro, I'm 26

[@OnlineBusiness23]

literally the same with me bro

[@i_do_guitar]

Nostalgia kicking in with this album, couldn't stop listening to it in HS. I miss this genre in fucking general \m/

[@Disturber93]

Best metalcore record ever in my opinion

[@GaZlovesGames]

horns! yes mate! I still love it

[@kingscannotfall]

Probably second up for me As I lay dying "frail words collapse" being first

[@dy0rama]

HELLYEAH!!!!! Even better when they included the songs from their demo

[@aaronmaxwelldjamax9517]

hands down one of if not the greatest metalcore albums of all time. the album is flawless from top to bottom and the songwriting is incredible shear poetry what a combination, great vocals, great music great songwriting, what a passion they brought. they should do another album soon, and if you are new to it dies today check out all their stuff, but this is there best work and their masterpiece to me, it gets no better

[@dangacore]

I was 28 when I bought this album ... I'm 43 now and still love it hahaha ... Never grow up!

[@GaZlovesGames]

forever young!!

[@chrisworland7754]

[@hunghummingbird6015]

9 years later this album kicks ass still

[@FEELdaVIBE44]

+Sy Price I think that makes 12....but whos counting ;)

[@kieranpatterson1]

Most underrated and influential band of the modern core movement! I still play this at least once a week.

[@GaZlovesGames]

i still love it!

[@RockerFoo92]

this album is the foundation of metalcore, this band was ahead of their time.

[@Boognish_]

the foundation?? That's bit of a stretch.

[@kaylag8140]

Boognish shut up dude.... it dies today are pioneers straight uo

[@cesargonzalez5356]

i love it dies today but killswitch engage and unearth were doing this same style years before they did

[@slothstradamus89]

DickOnMahHips Aftershock, Shadows Fall, KSE, Zao, AILD...they all predate It Dies Today.

[@slothstradamus89]

@Psycho Flicks Productions I see your point, but I'd consider originators such as Zao just as heavy (sometimes heavier) than groups like Misery Signals or IDT, and they too employ clean vocals and the same drop tuning as IDT. And they pre-date IDT by about 4-5 years in their most heavy incarnation.

[@christopherres4781]

2019 still listening... Since i was 14 years old

[@MrLoneguitarist]

reminds me of highschool keep getting these memory flashes of what i was doing while listening to this

[@adtthosa]

I played Freak Gasoline Fight Accident with a few friends at my high school talent show one year, then Our Disintegration the next year. We were probably terrible but it was fun. This record is amazing top to bottom. Also the one record missing from Spotify that really bothers me.

[@chrissmith000]

Not sure if you’ll see this, but it’s on Spotify now!

[@sflvideos3878]

Still going strong.

[@htfcm]

Damn! I just turned 21 when I got this CD. I remember I had their music on my MYSPACE.

This album was my Anti Depression Medication in 2005 during my freshman year in High School.

[@Stabsnipers]

They were so amazing live.

[@markowhisper]

Till this very day I'm still wondering if the name of the album is a reference to the Caitiff in Vampire the masquerade series, could someone please elucidate this?

[@mosburgz]

easily one of the heavier metalcore album at the time. still cant stop listening. =D

[@drewnafus7360]

Depravity waltz, the Caitliff Choir, and Defeatism are the bright spots on this album!

Real Metal! Nough said

[@rsaldivar8]

Why do you guys keep saying real metal? Like I said to the other dude. Its full blown metal core(not that its bad). Easy to hear though. Harmonizing riffs=metal, breakdowns+kinda softish lyrics and upbeat sounding=hardcore. Put in a blender and voila! You have metal core. Why am I going on and on about this? Because its 7am and I'm bored. I got the day off from work and have all weekend to Dick around

[@snipes0009]

R Saldivar Jesus Christ, you do not need to display your genre classifying prowess to all of KZbin. This is the 3rd or 4th comment I've seen on this page. The majority of listeners do not care. #WhateverCore

What a great album, back in the day they were doing the metalcore thing way before other bands started to in the era of 2008 and onward.
