I'm a long time fan of Iced Earth and I happened to pick this CD up at Media Play (yeah, I'm that old) when it first dropped. Had no idea what I was in for but the first track being the Star Spangled Banner made me roll down the windows in my truck so everyone else was listening too.
How about them playing at the Inauguration, then, right there, Trump signing a pardon for ALL J6 political prisoners, past and present, and presenting it to Jon Schaffer?
@@Green3ry Jon Schaffer was at J6. So though cringe, it's kind of not wrong. If things get really bad here it will be a result of the oligarchs failing to resolve the core issues that led to the J6 event - and I think they probably will fail to resolve those issues
The Constitution is a wonderful document, freedom of speech, freedom from religion, freedom to bear arms. I love the fact that I have the right over my body. And I love that it can be amended with civil rights protections and equality for all. Also, I love Iced Earth!
I would agree with that. If not for the fact that his beliefs were based on disinformation. He had always been such a smart songwriter. It's such a shame that he allowed himself to be misguided by the plutocratic propaganda from the corporations that run the right wing media. .... I for one am going to miss his music.
@@aaronmullenix5409 No, they aren't. Project Veritas have uncovered numerous demonstrable examples of what we already knew - voter fraud. An objectively stolen election Jon tried to stand up for. That's more than you can say, I'm sure.

Mr. Trump, how many wins does it take to get tired of winning? Let’s find out One term A tahoo terms ...a three terms!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Crunch! Three terms.
I'm not even american and I love the United States and it's Constitution. Wished my country had the same laws and a people like yours that loves freedom and that doesn't bow it's head to corrupt and tyrannical mayors and governors during this quarantine, a people that loves more freedom than their own lives, just like Reagan once said: "you and I know, and do not believe that life is so dear and peace so sweet to be purchased by the price of chains and slavery". I urge to any american that is reading this comment: DON'T TRADE YOUR FREEDOM FOR SECURITY, YOUR POLITICIAN *WON'T* GIVE IT BACK TO YOU AFTER, IT'S A PRICE TOO HIGH TO PAY.
The land of the free, home of the bold. I'm no Patriot, but you gain more appreciation as you look at the state of the rest of the world. a full belly is a luxery. This country is still broken as a nation. The past is all the more valiant because the future is bleak as a divided kingdom, fated to fall like babylon before. Survival of the fittest tbh
Imagine alien ships arriving and and they attack aliens gonna be real scared when the Bushes and trees and ground and air and their own ships start speaking hamburger
I play this entire album every single Independence Day.
amen brother!!! hold at all costs is one of the best songs ever

I made sure to at least play this song every Independence Day, however your American tradition shall be our American tradition dear citizen.
No matter what side you’re on, this is one of the best rendition of the star spangled banner ever. All rise.
I'm a long time fan of Iced Earth and I happened to pick this CD up at Media Play (yeah, I'm that old) when it first dropped. Had no idea what I was in for but the first track being the Star Spangled Banner made me roll down the windows in my truck so everyone else was listening too.
All hail the United States!
Well we better all be on the side of AMERICA.

We need Iced Earth for the Half Time show in the Superbowl 2024!!
Too bad the Superbowl is anti-American and Antiwhite.
How about them playing at the Inauguration, then, right there, Trump signing a pardon for ALL J6 political prisoners, past and present, and presenting it to Jon Schaffer?
This will be the music heard on the battlefield for America’s soul.
will it really though?

@@SeanMendicino-n3d thanks for the insight. This song is all I know about this group.

Freedom *OF* religion, not from it.

On this day in 1931 (March 3), Congress made the Star-Spangled Banner the official United States National Anthem.

Lyrics states fundamentals of Liberalism. What Americans call Liberalism nowadays is a different thing, mostly postmodern ideology.
A desperate situation
Forced to retaliation
The task ahead a burden
Men will suffer, that's for certain
We'll charging to the fire
The cause, we must inspire
We raise our fist to tyranny
A high price, freedom is not free
The odds are stacked against us
But with our resolve relentless
An arrogance their weakness
Our cause is just, we won't be beaten
Upon this declaration
Will come a grand new nation
Where men are seen as equal
Governed by and for the people
[Chorus:]
So we make our stand and pray
On this Declaration Day
For independence I will fight
With liberty I will defy
So we make our stand and pray
On this Declaration Day
Give me liberty or give me death
I'll fight 'till my last breath
With virtue as our beacon
Our cause is charged as treason
Battle worn and starving
Through the hell of war we'll keep marching
The birth of our new nation
An act of desperation
We'll force King George down to his knees
Capitulation
[Chorus:]
So we make our stand and pray
On this Declaration Day
For independence I will fight
With liberty, I will defy
So we make our stand and pray
On this Declaration Day
Give me liberty or give me death
I'll fight 'till my last breath
For the downfall of the elephant and the donkey and the reign of the people.
Oh, say, can you see, by the dawn's the early light
what so proudly we hailed at the twilight's last gleaming?
Whose broad stripes and bright stars through the perilous fight,
over the ramparts we watched were so gallantly streaming?
And the rocket's red glare, the bombs bursting in air,
gave proof through the night that our flag was still there.
Oh say does that Star Spangled Banner yet wave
