Hands Like Houses - Introduced Species (Official Music Video)

iTUNES: smarturl.it/hlh...
MERCH: riserecords.mer...
We don't belong here.
In a way we are all connected, threaded together.
In a way we are all suspended, bound going nowhere.
Wake up,
walk on the wires.
Defeat and define.
Wake up,
evolve and escape,
Unravel, unmake yourself.
We speak in tongues
and we walk on the wires between,
We don't belong here.
We are the sleeping sickness,
the dancing dreams,
We don't belong here.
We're invaders from the inside,
we're survivors in silver skin.
Shapeless, we move,
unwinding the wires between,
We don't belong here.
So we'll follow, follow down
each knotless fathom to the end.
No more hollow, hollow sounds
of echoes, echoes in our heads.
Wake up,
walk on the wires.
Connect and combine.
Wake up,
react and reshape,
Untangle, unmake yourself.
It's been a long, long night
and we're still learning how to survive.
Will you walk with me a while,
and see a world with brand new eyes.
We see the signs
and we're fighting for our lives.
Will you run? x3
It's no longer survival of the fittest, now that everyone survives.
But we don't want to survive...
...We want to live.

[@axzelis1996]

I'd absolutely adore a collaboration between Hands Like Houses and Our Last Night.

[@kidkc1jr]

Winter's Inferno yeah it really seems like a good idea

[@kidkc1jr]

+Winter's Inferno the thought alone gives me chills

[@tonybeu3140]

9 years later and this is still one of my favorites

[@davidplitt990]

I havent heard a song by these guys that i dont like, even though i like screaming, i also like good vocals, and this singer is VERY talented, i like this mix of metalcore instrumentality and pop-punk vocals, they do go very well together.

[@Velgaxxx]

Fantastic song in every way.

[@DeadEyesOfficial]

Hands Like Houses slays. If you're into their stuff you should check out our song Hallucinating on our channel! I can almost guarantee you'll enjoy it.

[@davidshore7555]

I was listening to Crown The Empire and at the end of the song this video came out, I clicked it and I love it!! Great band!

[@DevoidVessel]

Same here, amazing band.

[@alyssaturner8044]

[@danielamenjivarstudent]

Same xD

[@iwanzulfi2464]

me too, but this song is awesome

[@alyssaturner8044]

yes omg :)

[@VincentGilmore]

Brilliant song. Whole album is fantastic. Well put together. Got me through some deep stuff. I love how you can hear Trenton's emotion in his singing. And the guitars are on point. And don't get me started on the drumming. I remember them saying they didn't know how they felt about what they had made for this album, but finally found right with it and released it. I'm glad they did :).

[@SlayerDestiny]

i see you everywhere on every song i go to lol but yes this song is great !

[@TheHilowonderful]

well said :)

[@onwingsofshadow]

Their accents come through on this song a lot more than their other ones.

[@LaurenJewel]

I find it really unique and cool though

[@firstlast-qv7fn]

+OnWingsOfShadow A Tale of Outer Suburbia is another good one

[@jennabrazie2551]

Yes it does. I love it!

[@noraahb]

wisteria is also a good one to hear their accents, love it

[@firstlast-qv7fn]

This is one fine example on why representation matters.

[@sSpirit]

This is my first time listening to Hands Like Houses. Damn, where have I been?

[@elas2k159]

sSpirit this is my first time listening to their music lol

[@roselicona7318]

sSpirit hold up that icon...mirio togata! Excuse the out of topicness I couldn't help but to notice😂

[@babygorladri1790]

i swear from all my years of watching this video over and over again i found "we don`t belong here" flash in small letters in the middle of the screen at minute 0:40 . Gosh i seem to never get tired of this song.

[@rolypolyropalolyst]

Yo, these guys are getting popular enough to receive hate comments.

[@brandonmadariaga3891]

Tara Louise What do you expect? They're signed by Rise, everyone hates Rise, idk why tho...

[@megs9801]

Brandon Brutal I Love Rise... they are such a good music company

[@brandonmadariaga3891]

Megan Jasmin Agreed with you on that, but I like Artery the most xD

[@BeardedDubstep]

Brandon Brutal oh man, Artery has what ... Slaves? Great band but they don't have much else going for them.

[@brandonmadariaga3891]

Bearded Rizz If you like Heavy shit, then Artery id good for you.

[@kurishey08]

[@Jep_productions]

So my girlfriend bought us tickets to see them. I'd never really listened to them but now i'm in love.

[@lilyobryan186]

Who is this amazing band and how have I never heard of them before?!

[@origamira66its]

Dear Trenton, I will be lucky if you ever see this. But here goes: I discovered Hands Like Houses shortly after I turned the big 18. Unimagine was probably still in development by the time I found your band. This was my soulmate band from 18-28 years old. 10 years of beautiful music, and I followed you guys through all stages of your musical journey. I learned to love all aspects of your music, not just the vocals, but the lyrics, the guitar, the drums, keyboard, bass, and other miscellaneous instruments you threw in. It was a masterpiece with every song. I can listen to any song by you from the OG Ground Dweller to the Hands Like Houses EP and recite the lines perfectly. I understand that leaving the band wasn't an easy decision for you, but even with the new lead singer, you are always going to be Hands Like Houses to me. I will never forget crying my eyes out screaming your lyrics at your concerts. I hope whatever place you venture off to next is a safe place. Thank you for the good memories. Thank you for being a part of the band that pushed me through each and every day. I'm glad I was able to find this band in my lifetime, and I'm glad you were a part of the band that I loved so much. Thank you for everything. Warm wishes, Frisk 💛

[@ElKomodin]

hope this kind of music comeback :(

[@Aron97.]

Listening to this song again, man it sure does bring me back somehow!

[@Ru1Roy]

How to be an awesome band: 1. be australian. Done.

except he is a total sweetheart and a wonderful human being. Trenton is talented and has the personality to make it even better.

[@Toxin08]

if I had a nickle for every rock/metal band that has said 'we don't belong here' I'd be a rich man.

[@Stars_in_my_coffee]

WOW!!! SO glad I accidently clicked on these guys :) Very pretty song!!!

[@NikhilSharma-ug1rx]

Met the lead singer Trenton after the concert in Atlanta a few years ago. He was really down to earth and we took a selfie. His accent is so goddamn cool lol

[@Petalsfornicko]

Their cover of torn brought me here. Found my new fave band

[@Coldmarbles]

Saw them in Dallas last night on the Unconditional Tour with A Word Alive, Memphis May Fire, and Beartooth. Was amazing :)

[@Coldmarbles]

The Word Alive*

[@thy_art_is_cats6860]

I love when I find out a band is from Australia

[@NachoCheeseNils]

Parkway Drive, Northlane, Saviour, House vs Hurricane. Have fun! ;) 0

i killed the prom queen

[@amberrichard8874]

It's been a while since I've listened to THIS song by them, but I decided to read the lyrics to it first before playing it and damn, it's deep

[@vanessamartinez8137]

I met this band a few weeks ago and they were extremely talented and so kind! I never really listened to them before but now I'm hooked.

[@bryantadam7960]

I just realized the meaning behind the song, its not simply just surviving.

[@Aichokeu]

This song instantly became a favorite of mine. A friend showed it to me 3 days ago and it means so much to me personally that i searched for hours to find a way to learn it on guitar. Until recently i never had a group of friends. I'd bounce back and forth between a few people but that's it. I didn't have a sense of belonging. "Shapeless we move" to me meaning i was constantly becoming who my few friends liked and had to change myself depending on who i was with. That's just one example. This song describes most of my life.

[@CryoSting520]

Hands Like Houses always give me chills whenever I listen to their music. It's hard for most bands to give me that feeling.

[@xRubyenMcC]

Hands Like Houses has been amazing since they came around. I really wish they had more plays. I know they aren't "underrated" but I feel like they are "undervalued". I personally feel that Hands Like Houses should be a front-runner for the face of Rise Records right now. I will continue to purchase Hands Like Houses albums to support their climb to the top. They are one of the few bands I still pay for.

[@benenderby6525]

Not telling anyone about this band for the fear that they will become really popular.... I need to go to Warped Tour, apparently they're amazing live

[@mlb-yt]

Saw these guys live yesterday at the Newtown Social Club, Sydney. What a band. They are absolutely great live.

[@nikieaton1463]

you guys absolutely KILLED it at Big Ass Tour last night. Fuckin awesome shit.

[@AsTheDaylightFades]

Hands Like Houses is by far one of the best bands, in my opinion. I seen them at Warped and they were all smiling throughout the whole performance. Their music is just so amazing!

[@therandomrhia1009]

I literally love his voice omg

[@aidaamores11]

these guys are so so talented. im shocked such a great song barely got a million views. People dont know what theyre missing. This is real music

[@Dovetail77]

One of the only reasons to be proud of Canberra, Australia.

[@imbad101]

his voice....no this whole band is a one of a kind in music and i love bands with their own sound

[@Kobrakai392]

Just heard these guys on Scuzz for the first time. Very glad I kept listening to the channel, they have a good sound :) Made a new fan here :)

[@simonedr01]

3:21 Urambi hills! never thought I'd bee so happy to see them

[@lyssababy7862]

Still my favorite song all these years later. When people ask what I like to listen to I just show them this song lolol haven't had a person dislike it yet

[@HarleyQuinn110262]

Completely in love with this guys voice. The lyric speak to me and I absolutely adore this band. I hope they'll come to Atlanta soon so I can experience them live.

[@LilaTamea]

they deserve so much more recognition

[@angeladominguez1946]

I heard this song for the first time this week and I’m obsessed. I can’t believe this came out in 2013. I been sleeping hard y’all.

[@coughlosercough9007]

listening to HLH while doing statistics coursework. it just makes you feel good about maths even though maths is just a load of bulls**t

[@mattcatasthrope]

they definitely deserve more than 47k view for this awesome and super creative sound.. UNIMAGINE is just terrific..

[@bleach8713]

woah I just came from 'I am' and he looks so different bruh

[@LaurenJewel]

hotter, maybe? cause I mean like he can... ya know..... anytime 😂😂😂😩

[@bleach8713]

+Lauren Jewel Hehe ya I guess xD

[@jxxxxxx6364]

The lyrics and vocals are fantastic, but I think what really makes this band stand out is the instrumental part. Hands down my favorite band. Their first album was great, but I think Unimaging overshadowed it completely. I'm so proud of this guys. I hope more people start listening to their music.

[@KolbjrnStjern]

Awesome song! Looks like I have found my new favorite group! :)

[@eolucas9283]

1 Drift 🥇 2 introduced species 🥈 3 Developments 🥉 I love this guys

[@MJ-vd8bj]

Shapeshifters and A Tale of Outer Suburbia are my faves

[@ciaragoering]

here in 2021 and this whole album is still my favorite

[@Feral.angel777]

Hands Like Houses make such good music and if you ever get the chance to meet them youll see how nice they are! They are my all time favorite band!

[@dkatkins5849]

This song always makes me think this is what We Came as Romans (R.I.P Kyle) would sound like if they were Australian. Two amazing bands.

[@tashsmith4152]

KZbin search: I SAID THE SPARROW - A FULL STEP DOWN LIKE YOUR MORALS. Another band from Australia. These guys are so painfully underrated.

[@carmensmith4622]

So excited to see them at Warped Tour.

[@MarshmellowPlaysMC]

Carmen Smith which day u going

[@Christian-my4dp]

+Carmen Smith I want to go so bad

[@carmensmith4622]

I went on July 24 lol. and I was suppose to be seeing them on the 3rd, but i have surgery the day after :(

[@ghgeek2010]

+Carmen Smith hope your surgery went well!

[@V2SHPK]

Ive met these guys twice and let me just say they are far most the nicest guys ive ever met. Great music, amazing lyrics.

[@avbferreira8986]

can't believe you blokes are from Canberra where Im from originally

[@amberwyatt9091]

I'm mad I haven't heard of these guys until just now!! They've been around for at least 5 years now!!? What!!?

[@daniellaco3563]

These guys are amazing

[@evelynokay1665]

This is one band that NEVER fails to amaze me, their music is always full of emotion. By far one of the best songs I've listened to this year.

[@cll1205]

Great band. Super nice guys. Personally though, I think their first album is better.

[@JamesBarneyMusic]

damn i think the second album blows the first one the fuck out of the water

[@sammyjammyish]

These guys, The Getaway Plan, The summer Set and Sleeping With Sirens gave me the best night ever in Birmingham yesterday. They were all great, if only they could've stayed and played for longer...

[@SchmuckMorris]

I really wanna see Rise sign a band called Affiance... Theyre a smallish band from Ohio (where im from and ive seen them live) and oh my god theyre amazing. Theyre not the typical Rise band. But they are super heavy and their vocalist has soooooo much range in his voice. Go check them out. They're pretty damn heavy. I recommend the song "The Campaign" and "You Will Be Replaced" (my personal favorites).

[@shanemoore7058]

Weird to see people mentioning Affiance. I'm glad I stumbled into them when they released their first album.

[@SchmuckMorris]

***** Theyre signed to BulletTooth but I think Rise could get them more places.

[@SchmuckMorris]

True... But I really wouldnt mind seeing Affiance on warped or some of their world tours.

[@SchmuckMorris]

I want them to be on rise ONLY because Rise has a huge fan base for their bands. They have tons of connections to merch places, ways to get them on stage and in bigger venues like they deserve.

[@tenaciousfilm]

I saw them live on the Rise Records tour this year. All the little scenies came right to the front for them.

[@raven_669]

KZbin: 2013: ... 2014: ... 2015: ... 2016: ... 2017: ... 2018: ... 2019: "Oh hey, we recommend you this from 2013."

[@FlawlessRhythmGG]

I've been a fan of these guys since about 2008 and they have never once disappointed me. One of my favorite bands today. Hardcore beats, melodic keys and lead guitar, and heavenly vocals. What's not to love?

[@jannaf542]

People complaining about these songs not being on the radio, you know there are alternative stations, right?

[@LxHCody]

+Janna F not in Kansas XD

[@jannaf542]

LxH Cody I feel so bad for you

[@LxHCody]

yeah it kinda sucks here lol

[@asiaskye7183]

+Janna F Not where I live ;-;

[@matthewhegarty2873]

Here in the UK I've heard this band played on the most mainstream modern music radio station here!

[@mennoaarts9838]

Experienced these guys while attending to a Sleeping With Sirens concert. didn't know who Hands Like Houses were before, Can't stop listening to them ever since! They were soo good

[@OfficialNixer]

Emarosa and Crown the Empire are BY FAR riserecords' best bands (my opinion)

[@ItsAmplified]

Hands Like Houses are right next to them on that one. I would go with these guys first honestly, then Memphis May Fire, Emarosa, the CTE.

[@Draxanos]

RyanMayFire Any songs from any of those bands you might recommend?

[@DisplayNameFilms]

Draxanos Alive In The Lights or The Reality by Memphis May Fire

[@Draxanos]

Edna Correa Interesting recommendation, any song in particular?

[@Draxanos]

DisplayName The Reality was great, thanks for that recommendation. Edney Souza All 4 of those songs were a lot better than I expected, I particularly enjoyed PVRIS' song Holy. Thanks!

[@CaribbeanKitty2]

Saw them play at Warped Tour over the summer and fell in love with their music. Great band!

[@jimhodgson6314]

This song is just

[@1595tatiana]

No words can describe how amazing this video is

[@asscher10]

Sounds a little like Slaves (and that's why I came here.. another person was saying that this band sounds like them.. then I decided to come here and see it... this band is really good)

[@milotrix44]

Chronological Correction: Slaves sound like Hands Like Houses, simply cause they made the first release of the two ;D

[@Sion6]

I don't see the similarity. I read the same thing in a review of Slave's album yesterday so I came to check it out and I don't see it. But...I found a new band to love! :D

[@JamesBarneyMusic]

i really think Emarosa paved the way for bands like slaves and hands like houses

[@Sk8foxx]

Id love another collab between HLH & Johnny Craig (first was Lion skin)

[@vansacoustic]

this isn't usually the style of music i listen to but when i listened to Ground Dweller i was in love, i absolutely love this band. Unimagine is just amazing, hands down.

[@chitowncubby27]

Where my 2024 people @?! 🤘💀🤘

[@KlaudiaCechova26988994]

i saw these guys in Nottingham for the supporting act for Sleeping with Sirens and when they started of with this song they bought such a good atmosphere!! :) BRILLIANT BAND

[@serhatmuratasbit206]

soy el único que piensa que esta canción es perfecta e única.

[@eimearrodful]

I met these guys! They signed my CD for me at a Pierce the Veil show, and I got a pic! Was over the moon! Sick band, GREAAT music! (:

[@TheNintation]

Glad to see enlightening music is hitting the mainstream, to hell with materialistic, cultist and fascist crap.

[@Noodlz0797]

Umm, what?

[@JamesBarneyMusic]

yeah what the hell are you talking about dude. there are so many things wrong with that statement i cant even...

[@TheNintation]

JamesBarneyMusic though i have seem to got 24 other people who agree with me, it seems you know nothing about the artist's message and the purpose of this song lol.

[@TheNintation]

Genghis Khan Umm, listen to the lyrics?

[@Noodlz0797]

TheNintation The message of the song isn't the thing I'm confused about, it's the stuff about the "materialistic, cultist, and fascist crap".

[@merandagomez31]

It always makes me soo happy that i was a fan of Hands Like Houses for like ever and i actually got to meet them!!! I love them so much! They are so nice, they all gave me a hug

[@stanqueens7527]

I really like this band. They should make of channel apart.

[@stanqueens7527]

***** Ohh I didn't know that

[@BeardedDubstep]

***** They have copyright, Rise has publishing rights. I own a small label in Maryland and it all depends on the contract in question, but most artists do retain the right to publish their own material but sometimes they have to ask the label. How are you going to do personal marketing without some kind of right to publish ... and once a contract runs out the artist is free to do what they please with their music, but Rise offers so much as a major label that there is very little need for the artist to maintain their own channel or even their own social networks, aside from their own personal accounts.

[@lacusclyne56]

I'm crying. Cannot compute the amount of love I have for this amazing band.

[@jahiemwilliams6301]

They should go to warped tour 2017 and beyond

[@metroskyes5974]

At first, i was just too excited to see this pop up. Then i wanted to cry, for one i love this song and everything. And im just so proud of how far theyve come. Ive been with them since the release of Ground Dweller. And they are the most kindest boys youll ever meet. I hope this growth does not change them.

[@crazytothemax]

I didn't know Tomska could sing

[@alyssablaney2780]

How did i just find these guys!?!?!

[@aarontell1035]

+Alyssa Blaney My Spotify played them earlier for me lol. I had heard of them and I'm just now really looking in to them.

[@MemeGang420]

[@hastewithinme]

Phenomenal... Their lyrics, their messages, their music in general is just such a blessing.

[@AvatarAang926]

I want to copy their clothing style :D

[@AshleyThehedgehog3]

Recommended to listen to this by a friend, who also recommended me "Issues" and I'm soo in love!!!

[@RandomBlackGuy92]

[@CatUnwrapped]

You tube need a 'LOVE' button! My favorite song, and I hear a lot of music, can't wait for Vans Warped Australia to see these guys.

I haven't listened to this band in a couple of years....still knew every word!
