Poison The Well - Botchla (Live @ Vans Warped Tour)

[@YZFMX256]

So glad i discovered these guys when i was like 13-14 (02-03) I’m 31 now and still their music is just as good as it was the day i found them.

[@paratext]

Same here. I remember it was my introduction to metalcore and post-hardcore music.

[@twantheprophet7931]

Same here

[@FaceFaceMan]

LOL I"m so glad I discovered these guys back in 02. They were one of my top 8 on Myspace. It was 20 years ago and I need to let people reading this that I'm old now. LOL OMG. But real talk, The music video for this song was the sickest thing ever.

[@anthonytkf]

Poison the well is probably one of the most under rated bands. PTW 4 LIFE FTW

[@justinmraz96]

There are no words that describe how bad ass Poison the well is. One of my all time favorites.

[@gazzy_burns]

As soon as it kicks in, pure chaos, a band clearly loving music and literally throwing themselves at it full force. That first chug section is epic. Like a brilliant combination of the best parts of Deftones and metal core.

[@WildWestRaider]

Gareth Walkner Wow, you totally nailed it, in my opinion.

[@gazzy_burns]

Thanks dude!!!

[@Magknot707]

Hit the nail on the fucking head - absolutely

[@forest7874]

dude going mental on his telecaster, rocking the single coils

[@rallewarmbier7607]

he use am mini humbucker and the bridge is a different too, BUT! Yes, he is beaten the hell out of it and YES! a Tele can go metal :) I use to have the DVD that was made to support the You Came Before U Album and IF I REMEMBER right, Derek use to talk in the Interview about, that he like to use the Telecaster, new sound, aso ... and ... as I remember it right, he sold the Tele on Ebay after he left the Band ... I was glad to see that the Band is still playing in 2021 (and hopfully 2022) and again with Telecaster ;)

[@zenunderground]

The very first thought I had..never seen a telecaster used for anything but clean tones

[@UndisclosedHost]

The explosion of energy at 1:09 is epic watching them all go into it. Epic band.

[@MrKjg2388]

100% agree!!!

[@bjorksarmpits148]

nice Aphex Twin pfp

[@djhallied]

I adore this song !!!

[@thedeadcellist]

I was at this show - still haven’t seen anything as wild as the mosh pits when the guitars kicked in

[@DooMedSean]

nothing...and i mean nothing gets my adrenaline flowing like PTW. They had such incredible energy and passion mixed into one. My favorite band EVER, always will be, always has been. I miss them so much :( even sadder I never got to see them live

[@jorm6194]

You can still see them man. Just gotta live with his old man yell voice and be okay without the screamiest screams lol.

[@DooMedSean]

@@jorm6194 yeah I know they still tour, but they RARELY come to the MD/DC/VA area. I heard they played Philly recently and that was probably my only shot, so bummed I didnt even see any updates about them playing there. I dont care how they sound now that they are older, I just want to hear the classics from their first two albums!

[@dylanprice2183]

​@@DooMedSean come see em at inkcarceration fest this weekend!!

[@sean78745]

Who remembers the cd/dvd from hot topic at around 2002 where this song, the bled and every time i die all had one song on there as a demo. It was the most innovative cd ever for me.. i cant remember the rest but for 5 dollars it changed my life

[@mattanimation]

I was at this show, best band there.

[@creekandseminole]

PTW in 2003 was, what I think, is their nest year ever. Their third album came out, they toured on warped tour and opened for the Deftones. Oh, and I finally got to see them in Oklahoma at a small club and Derrick was still playing with them too. Good times.

[@ReemeRocks]

Poison the well and Converge are both legendary.

[@warhorus2909]

Awesome live song

[@marcsfortaner]

Great song, hooked me on the first listen, the intro is so Deftones.

[@TrephineArtist]

Goosebumps (speechless) !

[@licsergiotejada]

I came back to this song to start the 2015 remembering my musical roots... this thing was the SHIT....

[@johnnycakes2k]

They're reforming to play at least 2 shows in May.

[@licsergiotejada]

Awesome

[@steveherald27]

yes...yes

[@thiagogeysonforster2936]

poison the well is legendary dude

[@Mack101Avery]

I was at this show pretty sure, it was such a long time ago but damn are they good. Saw them a 2nd time at the commodore in vancouver as well. Got the drummer Chris's stick and a picture with them at their booth nice guys. 🤘

[@Spuhmaster]

awesome vid, one my fave songs. one of the most original bands around

[@Soviet257]

My favorite band since like 2002.

[@katdee224]

WOW even with the shit quality and white noise this is better than the recording, wish I could seen this IRL. Thanks for sharing

[@FreshHennessyRecords]

uffff...los pelos de punta colega!

[@vilewisher8786]

Using those JCM 2000s. Yes sir.

[@xkyrakashax]

This is amazing! I wish I were there.

[@boddicker6661]

damn, my fondest memories of this band is with the old line-up.. @ take action tour w/ shadowsfall in austin, tx. will forever be my favorite poison the well show...

[@Magknot707]

I have never felt like this before or had an opinion on something like it, but -..... Guitarist in the white shirt's movements are fucking dope. Haha. That dudes getting DOWN. Loved that shit

[@MYNAMACHEF]

More time has passed since the upload of this video, than the time between this performance and the upload of the video. Fuck

[@BRUTUStheRUDEST]

One of the greatest songs of all time, bet

[@CrazyCaucasian1337]

These people have amazing stage presence

[@salnorton4145]

Saw them a couple times always bringing the house down..... fuck yeah south Florida home of Hardcore....

[@jamesstaggenborg4461]

Sal Norton Unfortunately you guys have the Shit Stain we call A Day To Remember. Hopefully you guys can forget them.

[@-djSRK]

holy fuck its 2016 already....

[@elettrone128]

ahahahahah

[@MrKjg2388]

2017

[@CameronDavidPretorius]

2024

[@Soviet257]

I think the new album is the best ever but I'm glad to hear they havevn't forgotten the old stuff. I'll be seeing them in late August.

[@son-of-winter]

I was at this one. Great memories!

[@MrSkull00]

I miss Derek. I think they lost a lot musically saying, Derek was a great rhythm guitarist. And after he left (2003) they have declined :C

[@therandomizer7187]

i won't say the sudden transition was unique but dam. the way he delivered it along with the band going insane was probably the best out there.

[@JacquiPenar]

oof! they're coming back! Fuck yeah!

[@MoonbarIsGod]

Versions is a good album. It's a GOOD album. Opposite of December is in the stratosphere, it is absolutely timeless and will never be bettered by any metalcore, hardcore or anything else band in the passage of time.

[@allinthereflexes6302]

His vocal range is insane!!

[@youngnarco140]

Why am I just founding out about this song 🔥🔥

[@KS-ul8xh]

Def got fucked up with these dudes after a show in '04 when they toured with Thursday...Holy shit they partied hard...

[@maxwelld23]

The one band I never got to see and may never get to . And if I did it wouldn't be the same as back then :(

[@Haymaker17]

i really need to see this band live. fuckin sick performance

[@cubiche88]

i saw these guys at kaffe krystal my 8th grade year when they were still a local band here in miami.

[@WingsInternational]

this band is one of the most greatest hardcore bands of all-time. pfft!

[@seraphonwingsoflead]

I bought Opposite of December when it came out. I own all of their albums. I've been a fan for a LONG time. There, I've now established that I have heard EVERY track from Opposite of December MANY times. Now watch this... Versions rules. Wrap your mind around that one.

[@papra19]

amazing

[@decoil]

yet, they maed their most amazing album with that label. (YCBY)

[@Passionoverlust]

If you want to know what love is, this is it.

[@DixyNourmes]

yep... when Warped tour was relevant.

[@BRUTUStheRUDEST]

At least, we were apart of er eh bud

[@andrewhess1880]

Epic!!!

[@katdee224]

I cant get over his live opening vocals fuck

[@michael77d]

fucking amazing.. as always

[@thevisi0naryy]

Vocalist slays in this vid

[@catnipfever22]

well shit 7/7... is my b-day i was wondering why this was such a good performance lol....love the vid :)

[@Gummmmy]

"and your burning body will light my way"

[@grendelsbeard]

they wernt at the Cincy Warped tour that year. and that sucks. cus i'll never see THIS version of the band. they've been rollin down hill for the last like, two or three albums.

[@rubycannon]

@anthonytkf for sure! and may i add nothingface as another very underrated band.

[@wickedmelon1480]

Still an amazing band 🤷‍♀️

[@poisonthewell36]

have to agree with the man...converge is legendary

[@rockerstarblack]

Versions was dope.

[@iLoveSkullCandy13]

....i miss old Poison the Well...but you have to admit 'Exist Underground' is pretty good too... i aways wanted to be in a 'Posin the Well' music video... : (

[@Soviet257]

When I bought Versions, I was a little worried. When I played Versions, I knew Poison the Well was still my favorite band.

[@tabeat]

just download it ,somewhere!

[@Amirgrrrr]

I got this video through PunkRockVids!

[@fargieindra86]

10 people doesn't know what great music is

[@TheBryanDrummond]

FUCK. They have this simple but nuanced maturity that so many of their peers lack. Love this song.

[@boddicker6661]

i think the new direction they took was eventually for the best. Just look at all the bands that they were classed with...they pretty much all died already. hey, at least they still play old songs in their sets! i just saw a video of them playing turn down elliot from '08!

[@tabeat]

thier first breakdown, was so funny..

[@goindycolts18]

PTW is the shit man!!! Can't wait for the next albumn!

[@defiant4life]

because the person who uploaded this did not create the file...my crew shot this and my boy created the video...who ever uploaded it had no right doing so....

[@Saynotoscenesters777]

@brainfoodbs What the fuck are you talking about? Not everything is going to be in sync live regardless of the level of musicianship which is amazing by standards of Poison the Well. These dudes have 5 studio albums I'm pretty sure they're keeping time right.

[@NewEnglandPatriotsfan]

Does ptw still tour????

[@Tekron]

It says 03 on the poster lol

[@blackflag2671]

dave grohl style drummer 😁i like it

[@jfadness661]

bands are supposed to reinvent themselves every album not just release album after album with the same sound. you see alot of bands these days just recycling old riffs and changing the lyrics. its pathetic. these guys know what theyre doin and do a damn good job too

[@fernnndo]

♥

[@Novella2]

Hahahaha! Those fists waving. What the hell.

[@aldousband0000000000]

'03 w00t!

[@leeleeleelee420]

so pissed right now. limp bizkit gets super famous, super rich ruin the lives and minds of countless young americans. these guys, basically typify the most artistic and brutal albeit BEAUTIFUL genre/expression of metal/hard rock before anyone else can copy them, and remain under the mainstream. they should be headlining ozzfest n shit. fuck all the nu metal chumps. I want Trustkill Records, Victory Records, Equal Vision Records, Black Market Activities to get their fair share of credit WTF FTW!

[@_Panic]

They did get huge exposure and got signed to a major label. They just couldn’t keep up with the crazy touring and shit.

[@_Panic]

Look at all those pairs of Dickies shorts.

[@geldofpunk32]

How do you go from this to Sleigh Bells?

[@ChainsawSolly]

@anthonytkf Yep I totally agree

[@dongoguis]

esta cancion la vi en vivo en otro video y el vocal tenia puesta una playera de los deftones !!! a huevo que chingon !!!

[@ethanhawk32]

why not?

[@liamcole9319]

hope da tiktok deftones girls dont find this

[@MrSkull00]

@ArjanFFP i know man :D

[@Normauzor]

No they have unfortunately split up in 2010.

[@Spideysense12]

I can't believe that's Derek from Sleigh Bells

[@kowtpr187]

no...Converge is.

[@ashleevalo]

Pretty tame crowd hahaha.

[@Gnarlynateprodukshun]

Check out my drum cover to Botchla!

[@tompetty1976]

Haha. Not a fan of the music, but I know the guy that wrote the song! :P Neat to see it played though. Thanks for the upload.

[@Jazzzzzou]

Bands are supposed to do what they want to do.

[@cornmandante]

goood song the singer looks like Iker Casillas

[@Shlobalobadingdong]

@Normauzor hiatus sir!

[@Dougherty629]

where the fuck's the actual video?

[@coasterfreek219]

Drummer is way too excited haha

[@Jimmer3656]

they were at one point, but now I am sorry atreyu comes in second
