The Glorious Sons - Lightning (Official Video)

[@FernandoRodriguez-fj5pj]

If there has ever been and underrated band, this is it.

[@kylebogden5365]

Faith no more

[@madness835]

Ahead of their time... eipic!

[@yoshy4072]

I'm 60 yrs old, I suffered from severe depression a while back, I did not know who these guys were, I did not know all the lyrics, but when this chorus would ring out with that powerful vocal " WAKE UP" it would open my eyes, I could put things in the right place. Also the line "IT GETS DARKER THAN THIS" would strike a cord. Lost my parents before I was a teenage, and my best friend in a car accident before I was 20 and many friends and a couple of partners( co-workers) in underground mining. It was just the other day once again this song came up on the radio , and finally I looked them up. WOW!!!! Thank you to " The Glorious Sons" Powerful lyrics and music, I wish you guys all the success in the world!!

[@londorsey9013]

ditto

[@aarondavid5866]

sounds more like a band that helps depression caused by mostly drinking . am i right bud?

[@randymcd6774]

The Sons hit the nail on the head it's a shout out to people in depression that there's better places. He's telling you to stick around It will change. Doesn't even matter if it gets better or stays the same but, my brother's and sisters it will change. Tomorrow is a new day. Can it get worse? Possibly but there are cycles. Reserve your soul for the creator don't let yourself slide into this world. This world is temporary. Look up and have faith and you will be fine.

[@aarongottfried5595]

@@randymcd6774 tomorrow is a new day. Deep. Sounds like fucking grade 2

[@markjarvis5682]

I just found this band the other while listening too s o s this band is great.

[@DgtlDiva]

They make me so proud to be Canadian

[@kkaattiiee202]

These guys give such a kick ass live performance. It's bands like these that restore my faith in the music today

[@sloanprescott1935]

[@aliciapowell6]

They really are amazing!!!

[@tinamcgee8505]

My NEW favorite band! I'm a little in love with the lead singer.... which.... well, makes me feel like the creepy old cougar lady!!

[@demonaxl7263]

Nothing creepy about being a cougar. I'm like the OG Cougar. 😉

[@liisapulkkihenry3763]

Cronehood has it's privileges. :D I know exactly what you mean. Kinda like the old saying, "There may be snow on the roof, but there's still a fire in the hearth."

[@PauletteHunter123]

No you're not, he is a cutie

[@SherryTaylorReynolds]

I feel you. Lol

[@psychobunny7941]

Not so, check out Josh in bad flower, now we'll both be creepy

[@themadcommenter-2283]

First listen... ehhh it exists Second listen... ok that’s not bad Third listen... this is a perfect song

[@paulmitchell1706]

Fuckin Eh!!

[@LouisTyson-y2f]

That’s how I felt!

[@ffsean43]

This song came out when I was going through a divorce, and was going to really, really dark places. I used to listen to it on repeat at night every night before I fell asleep to push back my demons for the night. This is probably one of those life saver songs.

[@specialeeffexx]

I just added it to my FreedomFest playlist that I'm listening to while I go over the divorce papers again before my appt with an attorney! My story is full of guilt demons because my drug addict kidS broke his heart when they took our grandkids away 4 yrs ago and he's never been the same. I just retired and decided I'm either going to buy a camper and travel North America or pack a bag and travel around Europe/Scandinavia!? Maybe both! I'll def be listening to this song and the other FreedomFest songs on my journey! I hope freedom is treating YOU well Sean!

[@scotthoughton7245]

Huge Western fan. Thank you for your message/music. Northern Ontario old man struggling with alcohol for over 45 years Still trying. You guys are helping.

[@mikiisutton1418]

Why am I just now hearing this band?? The more music of theres I hear, the more I'm falling in love,, I mean it is like they get into my head and sing what I'm thinking!! This band is bad asssssss!! #silentwritter.

[@beckstar78]

[@greenmachinemax7931]

[@aarondavid5866]

[@drimsonangel3945]

Aaron David sounds a little salty.....how about you be miserable somewhere else??

[@jslute]

Rock and Roll still alive and doin great!!

[@lukasturm5277]

After Tampa Bay Lightning won the Prince of Whales trophy 2020 - this song came on ... An awesome find!

[@larrytate6884]

It has been decades since I bought an album. This music is so raw, the riffs so sweet, my god Ive bought everything they put out. Thank you guys for doing what you do. It fucking rocks!

[@scotthoughton7245]

[@aaronhoffmann1791]

How did I miss this song I’ve been listening for 5 years I thought I heard them all

[@mikemalicki8543]

After all this Corona business is over I'd love to see this band in Thunderbay so I can reset my life and get back to the normal . These guys kick it !

[@georgetapio8999]

Mike did you miss them both times that they played here? The first time was @ Crocks on October 4th 2014 (they were the special guests of Airbourne) and then they headlined at the Auditorium on November 19 2018. The Beaches opened up for them..Their March 23rd 2020 concert at the Auditorium has been postponed doe to the Virus..It would have featured TGS with Black Pistol Fire..

[@jeffreyhager3671]

Saw them in New Jersey great Kick-Ass band

[@rogerhickson7256]

Just bought tickets earlier today to to see them in Vernon BC in January...Woohoo!

[@Peterborough_Guy_Slots]

They are in Peterborough right now sold out show

[@Baseball5780]

I would love to see these guys

[@riddler20081]

This single is simple and sweet .

[@donaldbaker9880]

Only once in a generation does a band like this come around. I've seen many of the greats, I can tell you, this band is truly already one of the greatest ever, not just out of Canada-anywhere-they are going to be way bigger than the Hip.

[@scottthornton7656]

absolute banger

[@classicalsquire2016]

LOVE this Group!

[@darrenchandos201]

Canada should be proud. To call these guys their own. Them and the Struts in one night in Chicago for me.... Yes

[@mattdoe2368]

That would be a good show

[@MetalHead4Life94]

I'm seeing Siravo, Bad Wolves, Glorious Sons, Fozzy, Joan Jett and the Black Hearts, The Struts, Evenesnce & Shinedown next month in Camden NJ and Glorious Sons & the struts along with fozzy & Jett are what I'm most looking forward to

[@Gezzy08]

Also saw them both on the same night about 2 weeks ago, amazing show. Love those 2 bands and still exceeded expectations

[@Christine-wi1dl]

@dani cali We are very Proud of The Glorious Son's.....Absolutely, and thank you

[@tb3512]

These guys Rock old School, cant get enough. already waiting for the next album

[@rebeccad.robinsonyoshi2749]

Your song "Josie" is the theme song for my life right now... and currently checking out the rest of your music and saving them to Playlists. I have so many new favorites 🤩

[@robinpyne2013]

These is darker places than these thank God

[@Shwidda88]

Had never heard of you guys before I saw you open for 10 Years in Dallas recently. Have had your album on repeat for the better part of two months now. You guys are a fucking killer rock and roll band. Come headline in Dallas in the future!

[@obliviatehate562]

I was the exact same! I too saw them with 10 Years only in Fort Wayne and I could not stop listening to their album. I even pre ordered their vinyl. I will definitely be seeing them again.

[@ajcass11]

Jordan Elyse bruh same. Saw em in ft wayne

[@crazyyyou]

Same for me! I wasn't expecting to like any of the opening bands. But as soon as these guys starting playing I absolutely loved it! Bought their CD's from them after the show and we keep it in the car.

[@Shwidda88]

Nikki Yeah few months later and I'm still rocking that album. Just bought tickets to their show at Dada in Dallas this september. Can't beat $10

[@FallenAngelMtl]

Gord is looking down.... You got big shoes to fill.... make his proud.....

[@GarthOConnell]

definitely on the list of songs that "saved my life"

[@willyboy6126]

See, you get it, like it has for me too....this song really made a connection with me when I needed it most. :)

[@bobbyglenn3912]

IF IT TOOK THIS SHIT SONG, RIPPED OFF FROM BRUCE COCKBURN'S "LOVERS IN A DANGEROUS TIME" TO "SAVE YOUR LIFE", AH SHIT GARTH, SORRY TO SAY BUT hahahahahahahaha!

[@bobbyglenn3912]

IF IT TOOK THIS SHIT SONG, RIPPED OFF FROM BRUCE COCKBURN'S "LOVERS IN A DANGEROUS TIME" TO "SAVE YOUR LIFE", AH SHIT WILL, SORRY TO SAY BUT hahahahahahahaha!

[@brandykauffman7061]

Same!! Love this song so much.

[@MagnetiKKnawledge]

Shut up Bobby. Damn haters like you that just dont appreciate music

[@jenniferschellenberg1721]

I’ve seen these guys 4 times at different venues in Winnipeg Manitoba. They are just awesome! A real treat for the ears! The best venue for hearing Bretts singing was Burton Cummings Theatre!!

[@greeneyes7912]

One of the best songs ever

[@aprilmartellmusic]

I am just now discovering this band and can't believe it's taken me this long.

[@livinxtreme563]

can someone tell me why this song doesn't have a millions views yet? ahh? these guys rock.. go Canada..

[@1969ricki]

absolutely the best canadian band besides tragically hip and nickel back in my books xxxxxoooo

[@makeshift_graveyard7893]

what about Rush

[@twinangel7615]

WTH isn't this band more known!? Actually nevermind I like knowing about this hidden gem 🤗

[@CelesteChavez777]

Awaken!!!

[@markphillips199]

A extremely pleasurable song to help you through the day and to be thankful for the day.

[@malcolmking617]

AMAZING! I saw these guys for my first time at Riverfest in Elora, Ontario Canada this past weekend. WOW Canadian ass kickin rock, I feel renewed, GREAT music still exists.

[@sacapuntasfregerio4274]

songs like this are the reason I love music

[@duanethebathtub951]

Saw the Glorious Sons in 2014 open for the Trews at te Danforth. Liked them a lot then and hoped they would catch on with the rest of Canada. They sure have which is great to see. Go get em boys.

[@charleslhealy5720]

Canadians can rock on to..

[@BeautyFTW]

Love this song. The lyrics are powerful.

[@johnotto3011]

I have to wonder what was on their mind while writing this

[@Jay-es1ur]

I absolutely love this band!!!

[@JST_LV.]

I could lisren to this forever,,, it gives me shivers

[@mitchell.fisher]

seen these guys 3 times now. Theyre local Kingston show was obviously the best but I highly suggest supporting these guys. Blow your fucking mind for 30 bucks best money ever spent. Im the guy screaming "we love you!!" at the back of the crowd. Ale house, John street pub and bluesfest. cant wait to see them again.

[@chantalkibbee4130]

+Mitchell Fisher I'm with you! They are mind blowing! I've seen them at the Ale house and I was also at the John St. Pub show (my personal fav.) in Arnprior last month. Next up Rock Fest in Belleville July.21.2016 and they just so happen to be playing at the New Glasgow Riverfront Jubilee when I am on vacation back home (Nova Scotia) July.29.2016. Love these boys!

[@steelcurtainpayne9318]

I’m super jealous

[@maxgreene8798]

I discovered this band one night while enjoying some magic mushrooms. This was a happy accident, due to the fact that I was listening to Blue October and the song Start a war on everything popped up. The video was really cool to watch in the State of mind in wich I was in. Then Sawed off shotgun came on and I was hooked. For being a Canadian band they seriously kick-ass. So to the guys in the band " Your a excellent and very talented group and I hope you can handle the game and not fall apart. Keep up the awesome work and I wish you all the best. Thanks again from a new fan in America. Not bad for some northern boys."

[@jimeckel653]

I cant like this comment enough! The first time I heard A War On Everything was right after i got my divorce papers and it hit something in me. Also a big fan of psychedelics 👍🏻🍄

[@willyboy6126]

Wow....GREAT song and I loveeee these guys! Brett Emmons is awesome with a phenomenal voice! Amazing home-based rock band.

[@bobbyglenn3912]

well if ya"ll like a FAT young version of Meatloaf, all drunk and staggering around the stage, and an ALCOHOLIC who is also a bit of a COCAINE user, and flails his PSORIASIS infected chubby arms in windmills...well...ENJOY! LMFAO William be like, "wowie, Brett's my hero!"

[@willyboy6126]

Yup to the last part ;)

[@turbovirgin198]

you do realize if you've liked any rock/heavy rock band they have atleast one member whos either a coke addict or alcoholic or in most cases both and if not coke than probably heroin

[@LLplay-he8by]

ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh the glorious sons

[@aliciapowell6]

Still my most favorite song!!! ❤❤

[@ryankuhnert9953]

My favorite band. I must see them again! WAKE UP COME ON CATCH A LITTLE LIGHTNING!!

[@Skywalker-lx4lz]

before i die i wanna see this band live 😎

[@davedaoust5712]

How is it this song is totally LOST ? It's a gem that NEEDS to be shared! ESPECIALLY TODAY!

[@judesxo5222]

Just have to say - you guys certainly are making a truly amazing name for yourselves. I am a born n raised Kingston girl who never really grooved to the Tragically Hip. The Hip has had a great run in the music industry and they will always be the grand daddy of Kingston bands to make it big. Now that they are retired and Gordie has passed its true time to showcase our next greatest hometown talent - THE GLORIOUS SONS are straight up the best Canadian rock band today and many days to come KEEP ON ROCKIN BOYS

[@yoyodyne33]

A rock band using actual instruments rather than half the sounds coming from a laptop...GENIUS!

[@adamcline2411]

And it sounds so much better

[@seen566]

+Bradlee Clark ya its nice to see some new bands using instruments for a change eh lol

[@Travelgirl-qq6ne]

Writing original songs and playing live instruments its so rare.Most bands use covers as songs . Its a breath of fresh air. Please continue to rock!!

[@katerilevasseur8119]

♦♦♦As a person who struggles...This song makes me sooo EMOTIONAL... Can't listen without crying. Very close to home.... There's darker places than this♦♦♦

[@jipzeeroze]

Damn I'm addicted!! xoxo

[@melaniel.7946]

You know the night, is our addiction, It feels right, in the blaze of the stars, And that's cause we, spend too much time thinkin' Lookin' to find a place, better than where we are They got a red flag, for the beast in me, And they'll feel and file the burns beneath my feet, I'll let it burn, Wake up, Come on and catch a little lightning, There's darker places than this, There's darker places than this. Wake up, Come on and catch it in the thunder, There's darker places than this, there's darker places than this, It felt right, you know the satisfying burn, Of the fear, we all grew to learn, And we wait for something, anything to happen at all, Oh we wait for something, anything to happen at all, Wake up, Come on and catch a little lightning, There's darker places than this, There's darker places than this. Wake up, Come on and catch it in the thunder, There's darker places than this, there's darker places than this, And we wait for something, anything to happen at all, They got a red flag, for the beast in me, And they'll feel and file the burns beneath my feet, Wake up, Come on and catch a little lightning, There's darker places than this, There's darker places than this. Wake up, Come on and catch it in the thunder, There's darker places than this, there's darker places than this,

[@V.Oakley]

I agree 100% . Real band, real singing, real passion, and real writing music that everyone can identify with. Can't wait to see these amazing musicians April 13th and 14th in Orlando and Tampa Florida. I'm so excited and stoked that they are on the tour with Godsmack!

[@loiswhite547]

A friend just introduced me to Glorious Sons a few weeks back. It is great to hear great music coming from our Canadian boys.
