haha, almost the same memory.... used to sit in some random city mall before i headed back to my small town with little to no cell service..... great times, looking back now i didnt know how great i had at the time.
This is a gift from God. I was a sophomore in highschool when leveler came out. They took the time to re record every single song and I don’t think people recognize how much effort that would require. And all to do honor to a great record that has a lot of special meaning to a lot of people. This record is a time piece in my life and has tremendous power to me. They did such a good job reconnecting with this period in time.
This is so good. Can’t believe it’s been 10 years. I remember seeing the original Leveler tour. Still have a signed shirt from Matt and Jake. “The victim in me is dead, I am reborn” 🤘
There is something very profound with that statement "The victim in me is dead. I am reborn." I want to get there so badly. My mental health is for shit. Something about that statement just sounds so badass, and I long to be able to claim it over myself.
@@hcaz5818 I would respectfully disagree with you. The new mix is a lot more spacious, which probably means more room reverb to everything in differing levels
I cant say it sounds better but equally as epic for sure!. Love the new sound but also miss the tone of the originals. But now we have both versions to chose from and i love both. This has always been my fave album of theirs. Fuggin love it all man! 🔥🔥
That classic opening riff was rewritten. Still a cool riff, but it caught me off guard. Maybe because it was too close to one of the riffs from Up Against The Ropes?
Meeeee too man it totally threw me off guard. Not sure how I feel about that when you hear something a million times and then it's changed. Not bad just different.
I love this but I like the old version a bit more just because my favorite part "All you are is what we want" didn't sound as happy and hopeful as it used to.
All though the Older Version literally Moves the Earth..this Version isn't bad either..but the First Version is More Raw..its like a once in a life time feeling when they made the First Version..nothing beats that..not even Covid.
Thank you guys, still the best band ever, you guys got me thru alot, especially the song "white washed" that song is dedicated to my ex wife, she's still the salt that's burning my wounds......oh, and, come back to Cali, I had tickets to go see you guys and killswitch, but the stupid woohan virus put a hault on that one.
I cant believe its been 10 years, I remember waking up early while on a road trip to make sure I got this album downloaded before we left the hotel.
The nostalgia!

It definitely is, I just became a freshman about a month ago, and this band is my main music playlist
This album is so empowering tbh. This is the music I listen to when I play Bloodborne.
That sounds like a really good idea, I've never thought my love for gaming and music choice could intertwine. Thanks man
Heh you need all the empowerment to get through bloodborne xD
This album helped me too much. And it's really good to hear now, with a better life.. thanks ABR!
Forever raising the bar
I’ll never not go crazy to this song
2:12 I love this solo so much. It has so much uplifting feel and energy.
1 of my favorite ABR songs ever. So excited they did it again!
I am loving the re-recorded version of Leveler! I don’t know if I like this version better or the original one better. They are both awesome!
A decade later and this song still gives me the same goosebumps it did when I first heard it
same
10 years ago when this album first came out my life was going into dark times, 10 years later I am far from that point.
me too, brother
I as well, I've beaten addiction, depression and student loans.
@@jeffreyallen6545 That last one, hell yeah homie! (In all seriousness, damn good job, I am happy you made it and found strength for it)

I was just listening to Old Empire..
And this hit into the notification bar !! ❤️
#Hail_ABR
The guitar harmonization in the solo 🤌 that was beautiful
3 am nostalgia shot to the dome
Graduated High School with my two best friends friends to this album. Then that same summer proceeded to see them live at Warped Tour.
You guys just don't disappoint. This sounds better to me than the original. Vocals sound bigger. Everyone is on point!
They definitely don't sound bigger at all haha, all the atmosphere and reverb has been removed from them
@@hcaz5818 I would respectfully disagree with you. The new mix is a lot more spacious, which probably means more room reverb to everything in differing levels
I personally like both versions.
@@augustburnsredfan5922 name checks out, good job

As you get older the scale goes more deep😊
beauty! i can listen the solo all day
Chills...yes those are chills. Every single time i listen to this!
Lets go 🤘🏼
Amazing job guys!
This song was literally the best lullaby for my baby girl
🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐
Nuff Said
YYYUUUUSSSS!

I thought I was the only one who heard that? The intro riff is SO CLASSIC so this song was kinda a lil weird to hear, but STILL a jam none the less
O.O this is what I was waiting for! Yessss!
Love this song 🌺
SO. GOOD.
Yeah August burns red keep up the good work
Bam first like and comment!!
First and I LOVE IT!!!
Holy damn!!!!
Awesome-
My fav abr song !!!
Tonight I'll be ' near' the pit, near it
the best band of the world
I ordered the king James 10 Years ago and I still read it.
It’s too late to rock out this hard. Love the remixes.
It was a re-recording, not a remix.
@@kernelxsanders right but isn’t this the same thing as the constellations remix album?
@@blasstois nope. re-recording means they recorded the whole thing from scratch followed by a new mix and new mastering.
@@mkdnt9087 thanks! Makes sense.
@@blasstois With Constellations, the songs were remixed. With Leveler, the songs were rerecorded. Hence, the terms "remix" and "rerecording".
This is honestly the greatest thing I've ever heard in my entire life. It's almost too perfect. Thank you ABR
Arigatou Super Awesome 🤘🤘🤘
Exelente mezcla, saludos desde Perú
P O G
Both versions are great august burns red is a good band 🔥 ✌️
Este tema es fuego🔥🔥🔥🔥
I love this but I like the old version a bit more just because my favorite part "All you are is what we want" didn't sound as happy and hopeful as it used to.
this is what Leveler was supposed to sound like. going back is sometimes progressing, and these boys know it 🤘🏼
I grew up around country and rap but I listen to rock
All though the Older Version literally Moves the Earth..this Version isn't bad either..but the First Version is More Raw..its like a once in a life time feeling when they made the First Version..nothing beats that..not even Covid.
nice
One doesn't simply remove a pick slide before a solo wth JB
Didn't realize Armageddon would be so rotisserie-like
Fuck, this is hard! Not a fan of the band but holy shit one step down fixed that old album 🤟🏽...
Is the beginning of this reversed from the original riff? Ik for a fact it’s not the same, but it’s very similar.
I feel old af
Why can't my headphones get any louder??????????
I like the og wayyy better phenomenal band tho been listening for yeeeears
Thank you guys, still the best band ever, you guys got me thru alot, especially the song "white washed" that song is dedicated to my ex wife, she's still the salt that's burning my wounds......oh, and, come back to Cali, I had tickets to go see you guys and killswitch, but the stupid woohan virus put a hault on that one.
Stay strong brother
Not gonna lie this isn't as good as the original, this mix seems a bit muddled
Agreed, the original sounds way more "organic" and full in a way. Also downtuning all the songs was kinda pointless to me
Original is way better.
Nope. Overproduction on this one didn't work. I'll take the original.
what a waste of time this was
Why?
@@ethereal2706 because the original studio version was perfect
