The Amity Affliction - Death's Hand [OFFICIAL VIDEO]

[@thequasi3276]

My old roommate never liked heavier music until I started inching it into his life song by song. Over the years I could see his depression grab more of his soul day by day and I realized music was his output. When I discovered this band and specifically this song and blared it through our speakers he immediately took hold to the words and it became his all time favorite. Another year or so went by and I had to move away for work. Without that positive influence I guess the depression took hold again and he ended up committing suicide a month after I left. He wrote me the night before he took his life and thanked me for showing him Amity Affliction and how they helped him through the hardest of times. I want to thank you for bringing a smile to my friends soul while he was with us and I know everytime I listen to this song a small piece of him is still with me jamming out in the room and smiling because life is just that much more bearable at the moment. Thank you

The hardest part of this band is choosing which song is my favorite. I've been trying to decide since 2012

[@Roach4.0]

Dude i agree everytime someone asks what my favorite song i name 5 by them then another 3 then another 4

[@emon1922]

Listen to the new song It’s Hell Down Here

[@konceptz284]

[@dylannoonan6185]

I love that growl after he says “I held deaths hand this evening” then the opening heavy riff begins and after the first chorus lol

[@StoneyTheBlvdKid]

Bro so do I! I literally said the same in my comment.

One of me and my sons favorite bands. Here I am at 58 years old blasting this..

[@carlmitchem1897]

I’m 46 and I just took my 18 year old daughter to see them a little while back and they were fucking amazing!

[@KillcamzAu]

I've always found ahrens movement when trying to sing whilst playing bass very unique. It's like his body can move but his lips are held by some sort of magnetic force on the mic

[@angiepie111]

Any time he sings a high note (ie his parts on the chorus) he jerks his head back to his right, like he's got a tic and it's sooo distracting. It couldn't stop noticing it at the show. It must help him reach the note by extending his vocal cords a bit or something. But I just think gee doesn't he get a stiff neck every show throwing his head back like he's got whiplash?

[@KillcamzAu]

hm yeah i've never seen anyone do it like him

[@pkpoppies]

It's so epic, this is when you know they're your favorite band cx its awesome

[@DemonGamingLLC]

+angiepie111 he is doing that so his highs don't sound really bad and make the mic equal its controlling the mic

[@MercialMalinowski]

angiepie111 like 2:32 ?

[@nicojones9411]

[@matthewhill2467]

Thought I would visit back here to reminisce a little. This song dropped about 2 years in to the dark part of my life. this song and the album really dragged me through it for the most part. Went and saw them live in 2016 in Brisbane, then after that got married, 2 kids and life keeps getting better. Never thought I'd be here to say this but, I PROMISE you it get's better if you keep pushing even when you can't.

[@catfishbilly9191]

Joel’s lyrics and screams are really deep you can feel the pain in it

[@monkeykcuf]

This song saved my life and I didn't even know it. It gave me something I didn't have, but wouldn't need until recently. Thank you for putting this into the world for me to find and guide me back.

[@alexanderfontenot87]

Am i the only one who listens to music based on the sound and the feelings i get from listening to it, not because the bands " not generic " or " really cool ". This song gives me goosebumps and i love the sound. Thats why i keep coming back to it. :)

[@theginjaninja132]

that's the reason i listen to every band i like based on weather i like the sound and meaning behind the song not because the bands are different or popular or 'cool bands'

This is my saving grace through sad times, I will always gravitate towards Amity with their deep lyrics. Keeping me going through the hard times.

The beginning of the song, the instrumentals have that feeling of impending doom/great meaning. It gives me chills but I love it. Keep it up.

Its late at night almost close to dawn, haven't slept at all. I cant help myself but come back and listen to this jam cause its the only thing that screams hope in my life at the moment.

[@jynxd2083]

I saw these guys in 2017 at the Cleveland Agora..I was 46 (I took my 24 year old disabled son to see them)and I absolutely fell in love with this band. We saw MIW as the headliner. Great show.

[@jynxd2083]

The only reason why I mentioned my "Disabled son" was because he was trying to find himself musically. He loved Amity Affliction, he thought MIW was ok. I absolutely agree with him. Oh, I wanted him to see a band that I liked but all the old fvckers around me think I was too old for shows like that so...2 birds with 1 stone.

[@RebelHawkBroz]

3:02 probably one of the coolest things I've seen...goosebumps!!!!!!

[@jesscoupland3008]

I would recommend to anyone to see them live they are amazing!! this song and all fucked up gave me the chills

[@pinkrose732]

For the longest time I thought it said "I understand the feeling" Then I bought the shirt. It says "I held deaths hand this evening" Well, that makes a lot more sense.

[@lockwxxd5270]

I love how well the opening of the song and video go together gives you the chills!

[@ptgptg14]

My friend, my Amity Affliction concert buddy, held Deaths Hand a couple of months ago. He had family and supportive friends, but this time, death's grip didn't let go. Who knows how many times he told death to get fucked, but there's only so much a person can take before they're well past their breaking point. This life can be so cruel sometimes. He was a great friend, passionate car guy, and wonderful husband and father. This song broke me today, singing along for the first time since he passed. These guys truly make some great music, and I only hope more people will discover them and hear their uplifting songs and hope that maybe it will give them the strength to pull themselves from abyss that is so easily fallen into.

[@kezralis]

Sorry your friend left my dude

[@owengraziano7288]

I remember hearing this for the first time as a suicidal 17-year-old. The line “Hey death, get fucked” hit me like a train when I first heard it; it gave me a sense of hope that I couldn’t find anywhere else at that point in my life. I’m way happier than I was back then, but this song and especially that line still have the same effect on me. It just reminds me how far I’ve come.
