This guy is my Brazilian jiu-jitsu coach and he's a fucking beast. Such a helpful and humble guy as well!

[@TimeIsHoney]

I definitely wouldn't want to scrap with the guy thats for sure!

[@Zolbat]

how loud are his lessons?

You can say anything in the comments and everyone follows on blind faith. I love it. This guy also saved my life from a polar bear in iceland, really shook me up!

[@skelterskeltor3118]

Será profesor de jiujitsu pero esas patadas son de alguien que conoce el taekwondo.

[@noni44]

June 2023. Still a great song!

[@GuenniKurti]

I absolutely love Alexander's voice. His screams are so unique and make their songs seem refreshing. They really stick out from all these tons of bands with the same generic vocalists.

[@Randy1337]

Just like Ignite, Pennywise, Anti Flag or Billy Talent I think :-)

[@bintallah3830]

[@Riiyan]

Defiantly got the same exact vibe!

[@paveludaloff7294]

Agnostic Front, no?

[@maximtrokhan1333]

Disagree. His voice is rather similar to Magnus Klavborn from Engel and The Duskfall. But that's cool:)

The lyrics are great, "Competition telling us to follow guidelines, to stay right handed. Music from the heart, lyrics from the head to my hand and I'm left handed."

[@abcdef1282]

Noticing all these changes Widening our fucking ranges Writing down all these pages Usually filled with rage when I jump onto the stages I've been demolishing your bullshit for ages This time I'm breaking it, our friendship, your smile See you in the city while you are faking it From Hertz Island we expanded Never delivered or landed More than the label demanded Competition telling us to follow those guidelines, and to stay right handed But music comes from the heart, lyrics from my head to my hand, and I 'm left handed My friend watch out for the traitors I see them but I try to close my eyes for the haters My name is Alexander The Raised Fist commander The unsinkable ship never stranded Not trendy, not even branded, 16 years and never disbanded From Hertz Island we expanded And I try to keep myself sober Until the tour is over Think I've grown a bit older I'm burning inside, but my outside is much colder Competition telling us to follow guidelines, to stay right handed Music from the heart, lyrics from the head to my hand and I'm left handed

[@Gergenuss]

@@standinsilence This is my take: Society is teaching us to become right wing. The free market - the competition looking out for yourself, delivering what the market need etc. But Hagman claims he writes from the heart (compassion) and therefore is left wing (left handed) and also staying true to himself and the bands vision.

[@dunk4rn]

@@standinsilence herrtz island, english translation of "hertsön", the part of the city luleå the band is originating from.

[@KristianVirtanen]

2021 and still kicks like thousand hammers.

[@RalphPina1982]

To everyone complaining about the singer, those dudes are from Sweden, so he probably has a pretty thick accent. But... I think it is pretty bad ass that he can write and sing so well in English. I don't see many native english speakers putting out Swedish language albums.

[@belzebuthvi7225]

Honestly i dont even hear his accent without this comment i would have never knowed he was from sweden

[@mateuszw383]

Wow. What a power. I found it accidentally on my Spotify. My face turned into a smile within a few seconds. Very unusual for a song I hear the first time!

[@DP-eb2yn]

The mad ass thing about this frontman is he can actually pull this studio vocals off live .. if not better so easy with no strain to be seen . Crazy love these nutters .. November 15 come on Anthems 👊👹🤘🇦🇺

It really amazes me that this band have never let me down! They have kept their integrity up to this day, which is close to 20 years. This is the only band in the entire world that deserves our fullest respect!

[@wolfie3005]

3 of the best band's in the world are Swedish: 1. Raised Fist 2. Refused 3. Millencolin love them all ! Big love from Scotland !

From Hertz Island we expanded, never delivered or landed, more than the label demanded. Competition telling us to follow those guidelines, and to stay right handed but music comes from the heart, lyrics from my head to my hand, and I 'm left handed!!!

[@LyricalSteeler]

Raised Fist rocks! Always felt they deserved more international recognition! I wonder if they ever did any touring or just a live gig or two with the band Refused since both are from Norrland, SWE.

[@SpectrX2411]

Ajá pero este tema mientras haces flexiones sentadillas y abdominales.

[@tommyswegaming6715]

i still remember when i first heard them, think it was cheap shots 1, anyway, i was 11 and that was 21 years ago:) still listen to them daily

[@phile5437]

First time I ever heard them was when "Different but the Same" got put on one of the Punk o Ramas 20 years ago. They are awesome and I hope they tour in the US someday. If not, I'll definitely go to Europe just to see them.

[@UGoTDZeZ]

these guys are even more energetic live! if you get the chance defiantly see them

[@april_-zj3gh]

Found this band after reading a book called “La Rage de Vivre” for school... this is awesome

[@standinsilence]

I like the part where he accidently jumpkicks one of the guitarplayers hard in the head.

[@barrelstudios]

Learned about these guys in school. Studied film and we had one of the guys (can't remember the name of him) visit and talk about music video production. This must have been back in 2012!

Seriously, anyone slightly interested in their music needs to see them. I saw them live before I'd properly listened to them and they have such an aura about them. I had to see them again.

thx TPB, this great band, finally gets noticed by some more people. i´m listening to them for about a year now and always wondered why they dont have more fans.

[@BCMSi]

Considering doing a pushup or two, so that I may someday have that kind of polo shirt game.

[@smievil]

2:47 impressive jumping

[@standinsilence]

Its because Hagman watched all those 80s Karate-movies when he was a little boy and got obsessed with high jumping kicks. Then he grew up to be a big tattooed man with a Northern Swedish accent who is still obsessed with the jumpung kicks he saw in those movies when he was a little boy.

[@simoncharpentier2405]
