Memphis May Fire - Vices (Official Music Video)

MERCH: riserecords.merchnow.com/catal...
Drowning myself every night. Me versus me has always been my biggest fight. I've been so confused for so long & the answers always seem so far out of sight. So I fill it up, fill it up one more time so when everything is wrong at least I still feel right. I'm in the tunnel but I can't see the light! I just want to feel whole again so I can let you in. I just want to feel whole again. I just want to feel whole! Oh where is my self-control? Where is my self-control? I've been thinking this could be the end of me. Who is this person in the mirror I see? I have come so far, thought I was so strong. The truth is I've just fed myself a lie for too long. I never thought this would be me, but now I'm on the verge of self destruction! How could this happen to me? I've never been the type to run from anything. So sick & tired of wondering where my morals have gone. My father didn't raise me to become this. Where did I go wrong? There is not much left of me. I can't feel the ground beneath my feet! There is not much left of me! I let everyone around me down & now I'm headed to the bottom of the bottle just to block out the sound. God I need you now! I've been thinking this could be the end of me. Who is this person in the mirror I see? I have come so far, thought I was so strong. The truth is I've just fed myself a lie for too long. This is my vice. This is me weak. I need your love to erase this doubt. I need your hand to pull me out! Sometimes I feel like I will never learn, because the bottle's always there when I have nowhere else to turn. Will I ever learn? Will I ever learn!? I take another sip, the dark room that I'm in becomes dimly lit. This can't be all there is. I've been thinking this could be the end of me. Who is this person in the mirror I see? I have come so far, thought I was so strong. The truth is I've just fed myself a lie for too long & the only one to blame is me. Who have I become? This is my desperate shout! Pull me out! Pull me out! God I need you now!

This song hits differently when you’ve been sober for 9 months, then 1 year & 6 months and you still fall off. “God I need you now” is the realest line in the whole song

[@GamerScoreInfinite]

Not a huge fan of their newer stuff, but this shit right here, one of the best metalcore tunes out there.

[@iz6357]

This comment is still relevant 5 years later! This era of metalcore is what I used to practise!

[@GamerScoreInfinite]

@@iz6357 I don’t even remember commenting this haha. Still not really a fan of theirs but man back in the day in high school I LOVED metalcore , I still do, but back when I wrote this comment I’d be taking the train after school like once a month to NYC to see shows like this... Bless the fall, escape the fate, falling in reverse, asking Alexandria, warped tour... time flies..

[@Altroburst]

their new single Blood & Water just came out, give a listen, maybe you gonna like it

[@JacobG]

@@GamerScoreInfinite they're newer stuff is just as good imo

[@RoaringTide]

[@joedubz1419]

ryan hand Yeah buddy, you, myself, and Caity Slevin all have stellar taste's in music then! I couldn't agree more, as ADTR has probably held the crown for me since Homesick... But after hearing MMF's The Hollow album, well let's just say that the Ocala boys have some serious competition finally!

[@liammurphy625]

ryan hand I'll join the club lol, ADTR and MMF are definitely my favorite metalcore bands, yall should check out I Prevail also, they're new to the scene but they are reallllly good.

[@gbdo2k604]

[@skaterhaterish]

The breakdowns are pretty rad!

[@Bubbafett250]

***** Do you only talk to the wrong people? I know a LOT of people who like stuff thats just made to be brutal or heavy, me included, but then I always enjoy a nice slowdown to something along the metalcore lines such as this. So long as it's not just a cookie cutter band. I don't care if it's the band that made the cookie cutter, I hate the replicas though.

[@7MetalMessiah7]

***** well your statement is half right. post hardcore is not metal, its more hardcore. metalcore is metal however :)

[@sebofrendza]

This band is so real. Love this band.

[@117812410]

Used to listen to this song every time I would feel suicidal in the past. It would encourage a good sobbing session, after which I would pick myself up and go on with my day. I'm grateful for the music I listened to in my early 20s.

[@ciankai]

Used to listen to this as a teen, thought it was a cool song. 27 now, it's hitting way too close to home. Mad how sometimes it takes years to truly understand lyrics.

[@angelface52396]

I listened to this song like a thousand times when I was sixteen and sang the lyrics and identified a little bit with not recognizing who I am, but now being actually 21 and a recovering alcoholic this song means so much more to me I can see myself in everyone of these lines. I'm truly happy a song like this exists.

[@Kpap82]

i think he is one of the best singers in this genre who can compine wonderfully clean vocals and growls!

[@Jaybeezt13]

***** Except Danny's vocals don't hold up as well live. There's a glaring difference between how Danny sounds live and how he supposedly sounds in the studio (same goes for all members of Asking Alexandria besides the drummer).

[@Kpap82]

***** no no no i dont think so..beside the fact thaT i dont like AA

[@SuperDuude123]

Jeroen Buijs I've seen them both live multiple times and IMO Danny's has held up a much much better though you have to put into consideration that Danny tore up his voice

[@XZYLOSavage]

***** He's just okay live. His stage presence is absolutely the worst though. I'd like to see him do anything as close to as good as Jason Butler from letlive. live.

[@Metroidam11]

That ending is so powerful. This song is incredible.

[@tsubakinakatsukasa3888]

I relate to this song a lot. I was always depressed as a kid, drugged up parents and raised by my grandparents. I found a girl, who I believe is the one for me, and right now we aren't doing the greatest. I have..had great friends, only for them to shut me out and abandon me. I'm losing everything after I thought I had it all. I still have hope, but right now I can't help but feel this way. This song hurts me, but also helps me. And I wanna thank MMM for that.

[@AgesofAges]

I just listened this song about 6 times in a row. And in the past 3 days I've listened to it about 20 times. It speaks DIRECTLY to my heart and makes me cry.

"I let everyone around me down and now I'm headed to the bottom of the bottle just to plug out the sound" Is seriously an amazing lyric and impossible not to headbing to.

[@lnedeck]

Best thing about Matty's singing and screaming is that he sounds just as good live as he does on record.

[@nastychewy]

This song is what sent me to my first rehab I didn't stay clean until 4 years after it but it started my journey. I am not almost 3 years sober

[@ericwysocki7440]

I busted out crying the first time I read the lyrics because my dad died from drinking and ruining his liver. And it just makes me think that I don't wanna be the man he was. I wanna be the man he could've been.

Seriously, for a guy whose singing voice is relatively high, he can get REALLY low with those roars lol

[@cooltobeaguy]

Yeah, he has amazing range and it sounds fucking great i love

[@Minecrafttroller-je1uz]

That's because you don't use your vocal chords for growls. Basically every person can get that low with enough practice.

[@jakobfel2]

Minecrafttroller420 666 Technically, that's correct, but it takes some serious training to get it THAT low. False cord screams can be difficult.

[@Minecrafttroller-je1uz]

i’m currently a binge drinker. i remember listening to Memphis may fire when i was in middle school over 10 years ago. didn’t know i’d be coming back ten years later to a song that the lyrics actually mean something personally to me now. i’m so sucked into alcohol’s grip.

Ive become a fan. I love your mixture of hard and clean vocals and the embellishments in between. They've got great instincts for that. What an emotional rollercoaster!
