Pressure 4-5 - Beat The World

[@axcxvevof771]

From lead singer to a briefly successful Nü metal band to school principal. Now that's success xD

[@streetsshallprovide2029]

Prob not easy AT ALL to land a job as principal. Also means the dude is smart and has his shit together.

[@dngt90X]

Cant believe he was one of our high school teachers. Such a humble guy, completely different than this version xD

[@SuicideSeason4545]

Aging does a lot to a person xD

[@WocklessGamingforAnimeMoms]

Listening to random obscure Nu Metal Bands on KZbin is lots of fun, definitely glad somebody catalogued all of these.

[@Leo-nj5kw]

Can I get a link to the catalogue?

[@Willie.dangle]

If anyone happens to see this an goes to school where the singer works if he still does that shit...tell him it's 2020 an I still listen to this shit an still have my ozz fest tickets from 2001 signed by them

[@teddibehr3944]

Sadly he's stepping down from Principal this year

[@texastuna7298]

CAN'T BELIEVE THE BADASS VOCALIST (ADAM RICH) IS NOW A HIGH SCHOOL PRINCIPLE !!!

[@Jaybobthe1st]

The Vocalist Adam, he's my principal

[@nobat2]

Sorry Bro, Does he make you watch his videos in detention?

[@samanthacorbett2282]

Me too

[@keithbt430888]

His music inspires me.

[@5OHbrand]

He's a principle now? As in public school?? If so, that's kick ass

[@skinni_the_P00hBear]

Jaybob That's fucking awesome!

[@imdeadinside3331]

The singers my principal

[@aurorahiraeth5896]

lmao.

[@BIGNick7513]

If he didn't change the school motto to "beat the world" then I have my doubts that he's really a teacher.

[@peepeezza]

He was my principle like a decade ago. I don't even remember our motto lmao.

[@vampcode96too]

The lead singer of this band is now the vice principal at my school

[@blasher4]

***** Same here. I still listen to these guys for good old times sake.

[@MRSHlTWIZARD]

is he still into music?

[@neonhalos]

that's so weird... I was in high school when this album released

[@dianajulianto2860]

Tell him that this record means a lot great work people are still jamming his record

[@EnigmaticAristaWingsLord96]

Lmfao

[@jgibbons86]

I saw this band when they were on tour with Alien Ant Farm and Dredg in Colorado Springs. The guitarist and drummer, who are brothers, were some of the nicest guys ever. While AAF were only letting girls backstage P 4-5 took my brother and I backstage, gave us some drumsticks and picks. Cool guys.

[@ofthemorningstar]

John Gibbons Sounds about right, I doubt pussies like Alien Ant Farm could get a girl otherwise.

[@zacherysmith8637]

I saw that tour in STL. These guys were great. Also got introduced to Dredg that night, and they're fucking amazing.

[@GREG_Khar-NÜ-Metalhead2000]

I took it u guys are "normal people" right? Also lucky bastards! Im still 1 years old that year

[@streetsshallprovide2029]

Dredg- wow- there's a name I forgot about. They were decent.

[@oddball3264]

Best part about this video....No Ads

[@evelic]

I remember whatching this video at a friends house. Didnt think much of the song, but the video stucked in my mind. After all these years, I randomly remembered it and the song is not bad. Nu Metal was a cool era.

[@kowalskivideos6476]

I can imagine the lead singer as a principle pulling a kid aside. “Listen up son, if you want to beat the world…”

[@francosamericanmusings1560]

Hell yeah 😂

[@dirtyblueballoons81]

I remember jammin out to this album at penn state in 2001. Between the towers falling and everything else, those were confusing times. This band was a staple in our apartment, got us through everything. These guys were bad motherfuckers...If you havent heard the rest of it, the whole album is worth a listen.

[@l0ufromdaBX]

This album... still holds up. It's one of the very best albums that came out in the 2000s and one of my favorite albums of all time. Beat the World Dehydration Melt me Down These hands Enough Into Yesterday ALL BANGERS.

[@Ancient0fDays]

...mine too...miss them...!

[@Joe-yg7sr]

Gots to agree. This album is amazing.

[@justinflores165]

Sorry for the late reply, but you can't forget Proven and New Wave. Those were great too imo

[@foxfrost5022]

Into Yesterday PUNCHES A FUCKING HOLE through me everytike I hear it, Beat the World is my personal Jesus, man. Cool too see this one album wonder band is also loved by others. Fox Frost 11/08/21 2:51 a.m.

[@streetsshallprovide2029]

This WHOLE album is good. This band was massively overlooked at the time. I worked in commercial radio and saw these guys get passed over for airplay when other far-less talented bands got heavy rotation.

[@doctorshifty83]

This song really does bring back memories...but I have to say that Pressure 4-5, No One, Steromud, Switched, Flybanger, and Injected were some of my favorite new bands in high school that went ABSOLUTELY nowhere! lol.

[@xDMAN916x]

2023 and this song and album is still solid

[@BlakeBlackstone]

Been coming back to this video for years and years now. This comment section is where I found out the lead singer became a teacher. And now I'm seeing he has become the principal. Hahaha.Weird how times change. I was jamming to this in the early 2k's when it was on rotation on MTVX. I have their CD as well. Music just isn't what it used to be.

[@poopeater-yo4fh]

He isn’t like this at all anymore.

[@arkhangelsk9435]

It definitely isn’t I wish I could have lived through those years older than I was

[@summerbreezetb8715]

One of the biggest disappointments of that era....that this band didn't last. They were definitely one of the better bands, and much worse bands survived and are still around today. Sad.

[@ronniesykes7812]

Yeah... well at least Flaw, Korn and Staind are still alive and well, which is good.

[@ofthemorningstar]

RonnieSykes Yeah because Jonathan Davis being the world's oldest angsty teenager doesn't look ridiculous.

[@MRSHlTWIZARD]

+ofthemorningstar how do you figure? he mostly sings about drug addiction these days

[@SithCats]

Korn and Staind are exactly who I thought of when SummerBreezeTB mentioned that much worse bands survived and are still around today. Flaw's cool though, and I didn't know they were still around.

[@JonAutopsy]

Saw them at Ozzfest 2001. They were pretty damn solid!

[@Heller103085]

ahh the nu metal days of late 99 early 2000s .....love going back to these songs and get that sense of nostalgia from it. I still rock out to some nu metal now a days....five pointe O, flaw, APT 26, primer 55, union underground, Ultraspank to namedrop a few...takes me back to high school and simpler times

[@squirtslurper9474]

Give me more Apartment 26! (See what I did there?)

[@evelic]

Nevera heard of these bands back in the day, only 5.0. I might check them out.

[@CarynDPrescott]

Vince Neilstein from Metal Sucks tweeted about these guys. He said that you should play this vid and let autoplay guide you thru the underrated nu metal scene.

[@francosamericanmusings1560]

He is right

[@FreddyShenanigan]

I saw this band open for alien ant farm in 2001 at the EMP in Seattle at a private 107.7 FM show. They will forever be the first band I saw live in my life.

[@maddenscrubs4409]

Another band from the early 2000's that should've been more popular.

[@SithCats]

I blame Limp Bizkit for killing nu metal. Sure, they sold a lot of records, but they also caused a LOT of people to never even give the genre a try, and as a result a lot of better bands from that period never found their audience.

[@anthonygarcia799]

Everyone was jumping on the nu metal band wagon of korn back then

[@whotflivesinwyoming]

The lead singer is my fucking principal now lmao

[@dishmanty]

I dont see how they never got bigger. So much potential

[@mtjm]

Absolutely tragic we only got one album from these guys. Im still listening regularly 18 years later...never gets old...always beautiful music...start to finish its a masterpiece

[@ericwillson6330]

Look up Trace Element....that is the same band under a diff name.

[@SuicideSeason4545]

There’s a second album whose demos got leaked!

[@LucasMartins-dy6no]

Their first album is called antitechnology and is even better imo, 4or is a badass song.

[@njdevil8950]

Nice parkour on the speakers

[@RobertTheMetalHead]

2024??? This song is so good still 🤘🏻🤘🏻

[@danmitchell1091]

Sounds like Papa Roach meets 12 Stones? Sounds good to me :-)

Chris volz meets jacoby

[@SkaMasta097]

Chris Volz + Jacoby Shaddix + Paul McCoy + John Feldmann + Chris Demakes :-P

Dan Mitchell coincidentally, vocalist Adam Rich is now principal of Will C Wood High in Vacaville, where Papa Roach comes from.

[@youngcroy24]

I couldnt remember when i heard bout this band but i know my uncle introduced me to rock whos here in 2024 ?🔥💪🏾

[@justinflores165]

Criminally underrated

[@damianedwards2327]

i absolutely LOVE this band. they represent the nu metal genre SO well. great times and overcoming the bullshit. great beats. kick ass playing. great vocals.

[@SuicideSeason4545]

They actually hated being called nu metal and called themselves heavy rock xD

[@GREG_Khar-NÜ-Metalhead2000]

@@SuicideSeason4545 even the guitarist is on r/numeral on reddit and call their fans NÜ Metal fans,not pressure 4-5 fans,so yeah stfu and STOP LYING

[@cesarst3720]

This band along with ULTRASPANK were amazingly underrated

[@EdmundKempersDartboard]

Ultraspank make me sad. An unfortunate example of a brilliant band that just couldn't make a living off of it. Goes for Spineshank as well.

[@dantetheskater6609]

This song and Melt Me Down are straight up bangers

[@moxshyfter]

*sigh* Back when bands actually knew how to get good bass tone I fuckin loved this band

[@czarpaul01]

Warwick for the win

[@KevinLogsdonMusic]

Great guitar tone too. I miss when metal guitarists played through Mesa Boogie amps. Now all we get is that weird twangy programmed "djent" tone.

[@erictyson6877]

Need this today

[@Jennsanchez97]

Its so weird. My brother and I loved this band when we were growing up and this year when I went into HS I found out he is our Vice Principal

[@poopeater-yo4fh]

What was it like?

[@RelamKing]

I was a sophomore in high school when this song came out . I still love it.

[@jamesknowles1173]

What an era of music. Love it as always.

[@anthonytheman3504]

I remember buying there cd at Camelot when I was 12. I'm 37 now lol times is wild. Hope these guys are still rocking out where ever they maybe 💪

[@StevenEveral]

I remember the Target store playing segments of rock and pop videos on a loop on all the display TVs in 2001-03. I worked in the Electronics department at that time and would always get hyped when I saw this video pop up on the TVs.

[@xbizkits]

The singer reminds me of the singer of Flaw

[@ronniesykes7812]

Chris with blonde hair and no beard? yeah. (and no tattoos)

[@ultrableachfan]

He's my principle at my highschool

[@xbizkits]

tell him i said hi haha

[@sunnys5150]

Tylers Chronicles Chris Volz from FLAW is a far superior vocalist than this guy but this was a good song back in the Korn Def tones etc days

[@MickeyMishra]

The 2000's was such a good time for music if you could find it. Back when MTV was relevant.

[@dirtbag4559]

finally I found this song. I had heard it the first time on a 2001 Ozzfest CD. I got free 2002 Ozzfest

[@SithCats]

I still have that CD in my car. Tons of great stuff on it!

[@James-f1r5t]

Man i wish we could hear some stories from these guys and an update in their lives im a huge fan if the bandmembers read this hit me up plz

[@kevinerickson84]

i forgot all about these guys! So many old school memories rushing back. Fuck yeah!

I used to listen to this song when I was in high school. I remember they used this song on that wrestling show they had back on about 10 years ago about those people who tried out for the WWF.

+Derek Diedricksen I have always raved about this drummer as well man........I love his taste and feel on this whole album. Saw them live and bought the CD at the show. It's been one of my all time favorites of this style music along with a band called REVIS.

[@relaxshacksDOTcom]

@@cornbobrimlove7892 Revis- yeah, familiar with the name- will check 'em out. Pressure 4-5 always had a few little elements of bands like Helmet and Quicksand (or so I felt)- I always wondered what their inspirational-diet (bands) was- their influences.... whole album is great.

Been a fan since 01 Ozzfest. They were the surprise act of the day. They destroyed Detroit. Still break their disc out every so often.

[@bartvsskinner]

Love this song!!! Haven't heard it since like 8th or 9th grade!!!! I was just watching the Fuel video Bittersweet and saw the amp stacks and thought about a vid I saw where someone ran up between a couple of amp stacks and remembered the band name Pressure 4 5, then typed it in and "Beat The World" popped up and I was like..."Awesome"!

I saw this band in a small Seattle club 2 days after 9/11 happened. We weren't sure the show was still going to happen or if it were safe to be out. We decided the terrorists wernt going to win so we went. P4-5 played a kick ass show to an empty room of about 10 people. Love this album.

[@flatblackstrat]

It's funny how I used to listen to these guys all the time along with Papa Roach, Trapt, and all the good bands of the millennium, and now I am a teacher as well. I think this music might scare the crap out of some of my younger preschool students.
