*Who would you love to see represent metal at Coachella?*

The Devil Wears Prada, we need scene kids in the building!
I just love how the ENTIRE time the band had this energy of "yeah, we're not your regular Coachella band but we're here to fuck shit up" and the crowd was 110% there for it. KL has next-level live energy and I hope to see them this year.
they have pretty normal hardcore band energy, but their notoriety comes from their fans, you go to see KL and you have a high chance of getting the shit kicked out of you also, metal heads are in a lot of ways, snobs but hardcore shows are a different breed, albeit there are a few cunts in that scene too.
Saw them live last year, they sucked. Sad.
@@xSociety you sound like one of those grumpy metal heads standing in the back with your arms crossed judging all the and members
@@coleG112 Not at all, they just were not good. Singer sounded awful.
@@coleG112 I guess the vocalist is very hit and miss. Personally not a fan but fuck it’s still heavy
Those are not just normies who randomly discovered metal at coachella, they know the shit, know how to carry themselves in the situation, those are people who like both Blackpink and the core stuff. Such people do in fact exist
@@ChokeholdChums personally i just listen to whatever i count as "good" to my ears, sure i tend to lean towards metal but my playlist ranges from black metal to 90s jpop,trap, etc. As long as something is good why shouldnt i listen to it? Why should i only be in one group and not be mixed? Ill never understand elitists.
The title of this video reeks of superiority. I swear, all "metal" dudes seem to think that people only listen to one genre because they themselves do. People can like electronic music and breakdowns, what a novel thought.
27 year old dude in construction who bumps both Blackpink and heavy shit here lol we exist
Metal is my #1 and Blackpink is dope. There are so many good artists out there, I'll never restrict myself to just listening to metal ever again like I did when I was a teen. I've been listening to a bit more Alexisonfire lately and was reminded that people were so upset that Dallas Green was doing something else at the time (City and Colour). I loved both and thought it was great to get more from an artist that I already loved.
All the people in the crowd of these Knocked Loose concerts look like they're having a blast and that's all great. I'd love to be jumping around with these guys.
@@Lowtendo We don't think people listen to one genre, but Metalheads usually only listen to Metal, and we know this because we are in the community. Yes, a person who enjoys pop can obviously enjoy breakdowns, but people who enjoy breakdowns usually don't enjoy pop. That's where the surprise comes from. There's no air of superiority here, it's all inductive thinking.
Bryan’s comment “coachella is a hc festival now” 😂
XD
“An” HC… HC starts with a vowel sound so you use “an”.
@@OberynTheRedViperH isn’t a vowel champ
@@OberynTheRedViper If you were saying the letters individually then yes, but its meant to be read as 'hardcore' not the actual acronym, so 'a' is right
@@OberynTheRedViper what a dork
Dude, if this is what gets hardcore into the mainstream, I'm here for it. Even if it was for a moment, if knocked loose became the biggest hardcore band or biggest metalcore band and that being the biggest hurrah before they left off, that's a MEGA W. IDGAF what purists will say because the fact is ,hardcore isn't a big genre. If knocked loose had one big semi mainstream hit and then returned to playing small venues with people spinkicking each other in the face, that is still one moment with tons of eyes on hardcore, and if just 5% of the people who heard the song and got into their other songs, other albums, traced their influences to stuff like disembodied, that's still gonna be a lot of people and will be no doubt the biggest W of the scene. Knocked Loose and Turnstile are the bands carrying the torches in this wave of modern hardcore and I wish them all the success in the world. We need more people in the scene to keep it fresh, more people to go to shows and spinkick each other's face with.
Sorry for the friggin essay comment, but long story short, knocked loose fucks and I hope they do well.
Couldnt have said it better, KL have made it for sure.
I've seen them twice by now, and both times were fucking tight.
No, we don't want hardcore to be mainstream
@@kirisutegomen12 tell that to the bands who want to make a living off music
Imagine a band as being like a coffee shop. There’s loads of willing, paying customers who want to buy something and come in, but the gatekeepers/‘supposed fans’ block the door and stop them doing so. The irony being is that the ones who want their favourite bands to do well are the ones that ultimately stunt their growth by not being inclusive
@@kirisutegomen12 "we" being just you. Hardcore as a subgenre will never be mainstream. But we are already seeing bands who are a part of the HC scene reaching the mainstream in parts. KL and Turnstile are going to be huge in the coming years. It doesn't mean my local HC band with 15k monthly listeners and playing shows for £5 in a random pub is going to start playing Coachella though. HC's soul is rooted in the underground, but it doesn't mean its influence will stay there either. Let modern HC excel, there's plenty of music to go around. I'm still new to the scene and I don't really like the idea of being at 3500 cap. venues for Turnstile in August but there's a reason that they're able to sell these venues out.
Don’t forget that Soul Glo and Scowl also played, so that’s 3 hardcore bands at Coachella which is pretty sick.
I saw scowl 2 days after in the UK and it was fucking insane
code orange played last year too! i still want one of those codechella shirts
@@danielhaywood2449 Hell yeah, I’d love to see Scowl, they’re awesome
@@D0VEWORLD Code Orange and also Turnstile last year, yeah. I appreciate that Code Orange did not let that pun opportunity slide lmao
Soul Glo is mid live.
It's wild to me. A band like Code Orange that has hardcore roots but has gone in a bit more industrial/rock direction I'd understand, but Knocked Loose is arguably making the heaviest music of their career. Sick stuff.
Kinda reminiscent of Pantera. They went from glam metal to heavy groove metal and got hugely popular. Instead of releasing a more radio friendly follow up album they decided to go even heavier and became legendary.
@@nitrouscatfish5827 it was the right time/era & place. We needed it back then because they're was nothing heavy like how we have it today.
As a 43 year old dude who grew up in the NYHC scene in the early 90s... I never thought Id see such a thing in my lifetime. All for it.
I am stright vibing with that crowd man.
If you can hear Knocked Loose and go "ya know what these guys are pretty good" you are a friend and we vibe
They are more than ok. They are godly
I think what happened at Coachella was that all the people who knew Knocked Loose who were there with their girlfriends and whatnot, took the opportunity to let loose in front of a bunch of normies. They all got together and It felt like a reunion and wanted to really let loose after listening to pop bands all day and show Coachella what hardcore is all about. It’s great.
You could hear the crowd singing along to Counting Worms, granted the lyrics are super easy, so they at least had a clue. Weren't totally foreign to their band.
I think this analysis is VERY accurate hahahaha
Yeah def that vibe. Saw Turnstile at Laneway Festival (huge, mainstream/indie fesival in Australia) and it had the same vibes. People's significant others, or people who have diverse music tastes who finally got to cut loose to the closing hardcore act. I feel like irl people have way more diverse music tastes than you'd think from how its talked about online. Like i was there for phoebe bridgers and girl in red just as much as Turnstile and i got to cry to Phoebe and get smashed the fuck out to turnstile. All my bases covered.
@@defvii Spot on. It feels like I run into a lot of fellow metalheads and punks with absolutely eclectic music tastes. For example, during this most recent Coachella, I saw a guy wearing a Job For A Cowboy shirt. We were both vibing to Sofi Tukker. Sounds bonkers when you say that out loud and it’s awesome.
@@cj544322 This keeps happening to me the older I get lol, for some reason long time metalheads just vibe with such a variety of music (speaking for myself here)
The fact that, this could be someone's introduction to the genre is insane. Someone who might have even looked down on metal and all its subgenres, could look at this set and be interested. That's so sick! Also, no barrier at Coachella with seemingly little to no issue, with pits and stagedivers. That's impressive.
I bet there will be barriers next year.
It used to be a standard out here that at any electronic music festival, at least one artist would drop Killing In the Name when everybody was deep into the rave cave.
Seeing +10000 people instantly lose their shit to the complete opposite genre of who they are there to see ON JUST A RECORDING, pits open up, etc was incredible.
More actually hard bands at festivals of all kinds please!
There's something about that song and alt mf going ballistic.
♥️
Dude, you should listen to Sefa’s remix of Killing in the Name
@@Juztice763 I just tried and that was.. awful lol. I don't know how people can listen to hardstyle, every single song is exactly the same. The quality is so bad, it's "peaking" on volume on purpose and it sounds terrible.
There was an EDM act (I can't remember which, maybe Adventure Club?) that used to throw a bit of Underoath into their set and people in the crowd would lose their fucking minds. They'd be playing in front of like 10,000 people at a festival and every single person in that crowd knows every single word to "it's dangerous business walking out your front door"
I saw Turnstile at Okeechobee and it was incredible
Knocked Loose went so hard and I absolutely love how everyone was going nuts. This is ten times better than some trve metalheads that just bop their heads.
lol don’t start that fight
I hate so much how half the metalcore shows I go to can't open a goddamn pit up. I'm there to have fun FFS.
@@nuancedhistory probably go to heavier shows homie. Maybe it depends on the area but I’ve never been to a metal show in the US Midwest that’s didn’t have a pit start up. 🤷🏼♂️
@@cjh.1920 I've been to a lot of heavy shows and the crowd just wouldn't open shit up until the main act. Then again I hate when half the people don't show up except for the main act...
@@nuancedhistory reason number 108776 why I Crowdkill metalheads 😂

4 years ago I saw turnstile on that same stage at coachella.. and i remember looking around for crowd reactions and i saw these 2 extremely preppy looking sorority girls jumping around and having the best time to the music, thats the moment i knew where things were headed for that band.
Weekend 1 or 2?
2 !@@Lowtendo
@@fillupwaters so sick, we probably bumped into each other lol
@@Lowtendo that pit was wild, hope we bump into each other again soon !
The World is Changing 😭 Corekid for life🤘
i got to work production for the festival for 5 years and this is what makes it the best. They find the most niche and the most known and put them on the roster together. Breaks my heart that i missed this year.
They have roots in the hardcore scene which makes their lineup choices super interesting to me. They’re always just a little ahead of others and seem to have a deep lineup every year
The game analogy works great. One of the things that got me into metal is thinking about it as a sport. Pop music is like cross country skiing on a Sunday, relaxing on flat ground or whatever, taking breaks to take pictures of beautiful nature. While metal music is more like alpine skiing while wearing rockets on the back of the skiboots in a thunderstorm with a flamethrower in each hand...
Me having a bad day yet smiling knowing that metal exists in Coachella😊
Def needed something like this in the mainstream media u love to see the energy bruh
I shared the same sentiments with Nik. I watched the livestream in tears of happiness.
KL has been my favorite band since 2019. Ive seen them live numerous times, own a lot of merch, records, set lists, guitar picks from the band, etc.
it makes me soooo happy they are getting the hype the deserve.
They are so fucking good. I need more Knocked loose.
@@dustygearhead i cant wait for them to release that new song they played at cochella. when i listened to it on YT i was like what, i dont know this song? then i seen it was a new song they have been working on.
@@Gothitelle271 lmao me too, when they played that new song i thought my hearing was going at the ripe old age of 19 😭 had no idea why i didn’t recognize it, then got so stoked when i looked up the setlist and saw it was a brand new song. def can’t wait until they release it, hopefully before they start their tour w MIW!
@@MintyBlueNobody when i watched the video on YT i was like, whats this song? bc i know every song from every album. theyve yet to release a horrible song IMO. i really hope it releases before the MIW tour because i already have my tickets for October!
Dude, I brought my son to his first show this past Sunday (huge metal moment in my own little bubble). Which was Chelsea Grin and crew on the Suffer in Heaven/Hell tour. The amount of high fives, and amazement from complete strangers as to having an 8 year old at a deathcore show was overwhelming. I think the things people like Tom (Barber) and those starngers say and do while at show's like that really speaks to how badly we want to be this inclusive community, but how hard the gatekeepers are trying to hold us back from being inclusive, yet still the "black goat" of the music industry game. Fucking amazing perspective. ARF ARF. Keep killing it homie.🤘🤘
I took my son to this exact show!! It was also his first! We were at the Anaheim show! He was like “I wanna go in the chaos!” And then we went into the pit during Carnifex!
He’s also 9 years old!
@@undrwtrboi 🤙🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻 parenting done right homie!
Taking my daughter to her first show on Friday veil of Maya stoked
@Heavy Metal Patriot Make sure you show up early! Orbit Culture is sick, do not want to miss them. I'm going to that show mostly for Orbit Culture and Veil, but Avatar is cool, too. Just not a huge fan of most of their music. Pretty 'meh' to me, but they have a few cool tracks. Live is a whole other ballgame and they're great live, so still worth seeing them. Orbit Culture is definitely an up and coming band, and I could see them gaining some traction.
One thing I love about the younger generations, is that they all seem to be a lot more accepting of all kinds of different genres of music.
I remember being in high school and believing that only I listen to such a crazy variety of music, meanwhile people would literally form cliques depending on what kind of music they listened to.
still is the case today
Went to go catch them and there was a line to get into the tent to seem them it was crazy. Didn’t expect the crowd to be so big for them 🤘🏾
Awesome video Nik. I was just talking to my boss who has metal sprinkled in her life by her dad. She was talking about all the gate keeping. I told her to screw those people and listen to what you like.
Metal is an amazing genre with so many talented artists. Always stoked to see it go “mainstream”!
It was such an amazing night! We went from the knocked loose set to the blink 182 set. Pure bliss, y'all 😊
Knocked Loose is one of my favorite bands so seeing this is amazing
Thank you for watching my video 🙌🏻 The energy was insane in the front
Was just going to send you this video!
I hope more bands get to come next year.
Hometown boys representing. One of the best bands to come out of this city in ages. We’ve always done mixed genre shows here. HC bands playing with punk or indie bands. Metal bands playing with emo pop punk bands. It’s great. The 502 scene is and has been a melting pot for music.
Louisville (technically Oldham County) in the house!
These people lived in their little happy box of electronic shit, pop shit, hip hop and mumble rap shit, and then they hear this and it awakens something inside of them that they've probably never felt before. Shit is incredible. It's like seeing old shows back when metal first became big and people were losing their fuckin minds at this sound that they didn't understand yet but they loved it and it made them feel good.
Knocked Loose just opened the gate to metal being more involved in what might be the biggest music festival in the world.
2:03 yoooo weekend 2 was insane!! I was there in the crowd and bro no one was ready for what came with Knocked Looses sets lmao I’ve seen them before and it’s always great if you know what you’re getting into lol it was amazing seeing people were really loosing their shit! To witness a wild milestone for hardcore to do Coachella and allowing rushing the stage, crowd bashing, and some actual good fun moshing was epic as hell!
The same with Electric Callboy bein the first metal band on the stage at the Parookaville festival (EDM, Techno, Trance, House usually). Everybody went nuts
fun fact: Billie’s TM is Brian Marquis of New England post-hardcore legends Therefore I Am and also helped create the acoustic basement section of Warped Tour. he’s been with her since her smaller days.
I love this. A great step towards a more diverse mainstream music scene, where metal finds a place again. And the crowd definitly is more energetic then "approving" metalheads. Hardcore crowds hit different tho.
Diversity is okay if the bands and artists are actually good. Cramming a bunch of TikTok pop music with a metalcore band doesn't make cochaella any more brilliant.
@@GoodByeSkyHarborLive It really doesn't matter in this context, what you or I think is good music. It's not about getting us to Coachella next year, it's about getting some people who watch Coachella to a show next month. I don't think I would be into the music I love today, if it wasn't for LP, Korn, Slipknot, etc. beeing popular and me watching them on MTV in the 2000's. Diversity in popular music is important imo, so kids who build their taste have more options to decide whats good for them.
Being a K-Pop fan and also Metalhead, this makes my little heart happy. :)
That's like combining shit with ice cream
@@GoodByeSkyHarborLive You need to listen to Dreamcatcher, you'll know.
how
@@andrewcheng2852 just love whatever you like and don't be a snob. Simple
@@ZRisyad I respect that
We need a Coachella metal version
Metalchella? Aftershock seems like a close analog.
I love most of Nik’s takes, and this is no exception. He never gatekeeps and that’s so important for metal
It's the same conversation that we had when Lorna Shore was announced to be touring with BMTH (I'm not even sure that actually happened but that's besides the point). Any time that heavy music has the opportunity to reach a crowd beyond "the scene" is a great thing for the genre. Do you know how cool it would be if Knocked Loose starts to get radio play or if songs get used for movie soundtracks and stuff like that? It would be hella cool.
I was a metal kid in the 80’s and 90’s and we moshed hard and broke bones and kept ambulances busy lol so great to see kids keeping it going.
I really feel its going to open up the metal hardcore scene at coachella and we are going to see at least 3 more bands next year. My hope lol
I get nothing but joy smiles whenever I watch the videos. Like a miracle. Long live to KL and metal artists!
This is so fucking sick, Gonna be awesome to see a bunch of new fans to metal.
That crowd right there is just another concert here in Brazil, we know how to enjoy. I just wanted no barriers so we could stage dive more haha
We need more bands who will embrace marketing themselves.
so crazy seeing how far they've come. remember hearing about them on sirius xm with jose mangin like yearss ago
we need lorna on coachella next year fr
Saw KL for the first time in 2015 and it makes me super happy to see them at Coachella
Gotta make metal mainstream... 🙌🏻
Only when we are not losing the quality of songwriting and absent of autotune.
Well knocked is not metal but hardcore
@@christnole30 theyre both beatdown hardcore and metalcore
@@kingmickey666 cry me a river
@@unai49999 no u
I think the people that go to Coachella for the music probably like just about all kinds of music because even in the realm of mainstream artist the lineup is usually pretty diverse. People also go just to say they went or just to party which is cool too, and chances are those people are gonna be down with just about anything the can move and party too, including a hardcore/metal band.
I love your gaming analogy! Haha so well put! Metal is like the Elden Ring of the music industry. 😂😂😂
this is insane i remember years ago my band opened for them in a small dive bar in VA maybe 30 people there this is just so crazy to see
in week 2 during counting worms you should’ve seen how many fans were on stage it was insane
deadringer aswell it was fuckeddd
I went to Coachella twice, saw Refused and At the Drive In ... My god those were some intense live sets.
I would love a festival with some mixed genres. To the hardest deathcore to some amazing dance-music. One minute you're stomping and moshing and next minute you're dancing. How fun??!!
In Europe they had quite some festivals that just booked everything from black metal to jazz
Kinda like the space being smaller because it makes it cool
I appreciated your game analogy.
I have a dream that some day, more than ONE person in my entire friend group will share my love for heavy music 😔
coachella should integrate more metal stuff, itd be so cool to see heavy music and hardcore music to be mainstream
I think a lot of metal fans underestimate the number of people who enjoy some mainstream music and festivals but are also “closeted” metal fans. Guarantee a lot more people at Coachella we’re knocked loose fans before seeing them than you’d think
If KL went to 40 mil monthly listeners I would be jumping for joy. I want more people to be exposed to this stuff. So KL better get all the love they deserve
dude has not seen crowdkilling at local hardcore shows
I did not expect that at all. That’s pretty sick actually. I feel like Coachella draws everyone in just because it’s a big drug festival lol so maybe a lot of metal heads went and endured the pop just for the drug fueled fun weekend lol
People can also just like more than one genre. Deathcore is probably my most listened to genre, but I’d go to see Blackpink or Doja Cat or Billie Eillish
@@phaaaze9984 agree. my top two bands ever are literally whitechapel and Bad Bunny.
@@unai49999 bad bunny is trash
saw knocked loose live with gojira in SLC a couple years back, they were sick live, absolutely bangin
I have seen more pop fans/normies accept more metal than metalheads. true they don't seem to care much about the actual song, but they just wanna have fun. because that is what pop is. not much deep meaning, no hardcore lyrics, it's mind-numbing fun. don't need to think.
While i dislike pop, i can respect that
Also 90% of metal lyrics are melodramatic word soup with no craftsmanship
@@hamm8934 I found that metal had some of the best lyrics in music. maybe not so much in popular metalcore, but deathcore and gothic metal has some incredible lyrics.
@@victoriqueMoe I find they’re often just stringing together low frequency adjectives and nouns without much of an actual thesis
We need Knocked Loose on Tiny desk
I’ve seen knocked loose long ago w my sister (she dragged me & I didn’t know who they were) it was a pretty cool show, like the guy described, there was a pit but mostly everyone paying attention to the band. Anyways I went to Coachella both weekends, didn’t see knocked loose weekend 1 bc I waiting to see Frank ocean. Since he canceled for weekend 2, I decided to take my gf to see them (as it’d throw her off) & I was thrown off myself. Mfs we’re moshing before the band even took the stage, at one point the whole audience was one gigantic mosh pit, there were like 10/15 dudes on stage at one point jumping off. 30 seconds couldn’t go by without someone jumping on stage wanting to stage dive (even in between songs lol when nothing was playing) anyways after two weekends of rap, pop & electronic it was a very nice palette cleanser. That was one of my highlights of the all the Coachellas I’ve been to. If there’s any other hardcore bands next year I’ll definitely check them out.
But weekend 2’s crowd was fn nuts
This is awesome, i'm not the biggest Knocked Loose fan but they are heavy as fuck and not commercial at all. Wholesome seeing regular peeps rocking to them.
Well let's face it. Metal and HC (particularly) always have had a chip on their shoulders. Want to be underground but cool, hip and unique at the same time. I, like you Nik, have learned not to give a shit and appreciate the MUSIC wherever I hear it.
must feel pretty crazy when the crowd "arf arf's" back at you
Imagine anyone else performing in Coachella having to follow KL. They bring such different energy to the show compared to, well anything that isn't hardcore.
I love this so much. Keep mixing these genres together at festivals. Let's party.
God I love Metal!
3:19 the sound clipping in this video makes it even more awesome :D
Billie Eilish was stageside rocking out to knocked loose. It's awesome to see
The line to get into the stage for their set for weekend 2 was long as fuck, it sounded insane hearing it from the other stage
This shows how many people actually like metal music but they don’t waste their time arguing about sub genres and what is considered “rEal mEtaL” lmao 🤘🏼🤣
great video man, i really liked your take on their set and their spot on the line up
First, grats to Knocked Loose. Make your paper, boys. Second, grats to the Coachella audience for giving our boys a shot, and fuckin throwin some bows. Love to see it. I thought, ya know, Turnstile is a little more digestible hardcore so it could work at Coachella - but KL is a few steps up in the 'acquired taste' section of 'metal' so I was skeptical. Glad it went well
I was with you until "throwing some bows"
If I see you doing that in a pit I'm knocking you tf out
@@giantturd5157 just a figure of speech bud, calma
I remember when Lorna Shore played Lollapalloza, I saw a Story from behind the scenes of a girl walking through the festival and Lorna Shore was ripping in the back and she went "Is that Metallica?" made me laugh out loud.
Now i can imagine if Billie Eilish crowd surfing to Knocked Loose 😆😆😆🔥🔥🔥
I’m from the Coachella Valley, all the IE/LA hardcore kids go for a ton of different bands. I went when trash talk played. Every walk of life goes to Coachella.
I think Nik is looking at this the wrong way. It's pretty unlikely that a bunch of K-Pop(and whatever else) fans suddenly found themselves down the front at a Knocked Loose gig and went mental for it. Seems much more likely that folk with eclectic music taste who were at the festival and also like heavy music went to see them. I mean they were screaming back the lyrics. Of course there would be people watching that had never seen them before and might have found a new band to get into but that's not the majority. Out of curiosity I looked up the band that was on before Knocked Loose and from the song I heard they were a Synthwave Goth band. Not everyone is all metal all the time.
I’m from Coachella, and I can tell you we have a shit ton of metal heads here. Most of them go to Coachella Fest just to drink and have fun so when an actual metal band shows up. We show up. Except me cuz I am that metal head who watches the guitar player to see if he fucks up the solo.
I know this might be crazy but don’t you think Knocked Loose fans bought tickets just to go see them and maybe that’s why they know the lyrics
nobody spends that much money to go see 1 band
Damnnnnnnnnnn I never expected a pop-first crowd to mosh so hard to fucking Knocked Loose. What?! It's not even like a more arena metalcore band. It's Knocked Loose. And they're moshing so hard. I love it.
Make metal mainstream again!
Bro everyone trying to jump on the crowd was just falling there lmao
Metal fans just cant imagine people liking more than one genre.
Yes, dude, it’s so weird. I listen to a lot of metal and -core, but I don’t consider myself a metal head because I don’t only listen to metal.
You're completely missing the point. Stuff like this happening kills the ignorance people have about Metal/Hardcore. Music is supposed to unite people. There's no room for gatekeepers anymore.
I listen to underground pop and death metal/hardcore. When people look at me they see someone that looks like they listen to death metal but I listen to modsun, madison beer, juice wrld, iamjakehill, kid cudi, ellie goulding exc but i also listen to cerebal bore, unfathomable ruination, disentomb exc. I could EASILY find myself at coachella if I lived in the US. I find it kind of strange that you're surprised they know the lyrics! Of course they do, there are fans of pop who are fans of metal who go to both shows! We exist!
noice
XD
'Phrost
seeing this gave me the same feeling of when Four Tet played out "country riddim" at main stage at Coachella
saw knocked loose a few months back with movements and holy shit did they kill it. love those dude for real! keep it up bois!
Knocked Loose is not the only Hardcore band on there, Soul Glo played and they go just as hard if not harder
Bands like Knocked Loose and Kublai Khan just have that effect on people. I've never been to a crazier show than their last tour together.
What I love is this allows others who would never listen to knocked loose or heavy metal/hardcore metal, to be introduced to raw, emotional, pure aggression and music that is written by a band that doesn’t have any writers writing their music for them and following what some big record label is trying to profit off targeting the masses that listen to whatever is trending junk. Some people were brought up to think that this music isnt acceptable and would never take the time of day to listen to it. This band is absolutely pivotal in modern metal. They definitely fill that thirst for more aggressive and absolutely arrogantly heavy music. Going to see them for a second time soon!🤘🏼🤘🏼
I live 15 minutes by car from their hometown. My buddies big brother used to work at the guitar center the guitarist shopped at a few years back, said he was a nice dude.
These guys took over the fuckin stage🫡🤘
