Dude they are definitely underrated and a lot of folks are missing out on them that don't know about them. But they got a beer named after them now that's pretty fucking epic if you ask me.
@Doodoo Swaggy no shit! Really? Awsome I lived in Wilmington and played in bands there from 98-03. Thenscene was my buddy Jay and fig from faith collapsing, hary and dave from after forever then dave collins formed weedeater.kevin and mike from betrayer.i was doing everything metal then funk then rock i knew just about everyone in the scene then Damn it was fun i miss it. But I remember they were pulling in about the time I was pulling out of Wilma-the-ton! They are def one of the best from there so glad to hear they r still rocking out! Thnx 4 the 411🤘
He is legend and Maylene inspired me so much in high school to start a southern hardcore band, I love their old stuff but this song and album grew with me too
Been listening to He is Legend since I was 12 back in 2002 watching them play up and down the east coast. I was a Carolina native in my younger days. Saw them with sevendust at the house of blues, one of my fondest memories. I was getting tossed around the mosh pit like. 110 lb paper weight by all the older metal dudes! I’d get thrown to the floor and everyone would help me up just to keep moshing! Highlight of my musical journey!
I've known of He is Legend for about 5years now. I was just listening to my my RUclips mix and reading the comments. Yours caught my attention though. About a year ago I started to listen to Maylene and the Sons of Disaster. That guys voice totally reminded me of Schuylar's. Well I was reading that both bands are friends with each other and in 2009-10 Schuylar actually filled in for Dallas Taylor while he was taking care of personal issues. You should check them out if you haven't already. They are extremely underrated like HiL.
When you leave, and you will When the going gets tough And you turn tail and run We're aware that you're scared But uncertainty's always nine tenths of the fun Stay with me, I'm begging you Don't do this on your own Stay with me, I'm not a fool Not just for anyone Every time you return With fresh meat in your teeth And a spark in your eye Does it burn, burn for me I have never been strong enough to be released Stay with me, I'm begging you Don't do this on your own Stay with me, I'm not a fool Not just for anyone Stay with me I'm…
Ever since I Am Hollywood. Saw them when I lived in Savannah ga before I moved back to sc when the suck out the poison album came out and one of the best live shows I've ever been to
I'm at least 3 generations deep when it comes to family lineage in NC... and I can definitively say... these boys make me proud to be from NC. I can smell the air every time I watch this.
Zach Johnston they like being a “smaller” band. They rarely do headliner tours. They prefer to open for bigger bands playing bigger shows to gain more fans. Rather than have a headline tour playing small venues.
@@markymark7608 Same, but they are even better now! They went all-in on catchy "third eye blind" melodies and southern grit which works. My favorite album will always be "It hates you," and I have yet to hear a band that matches that sound. I thought they mentioned they would breakup if the album wasn't a success, which it wasn't, and I am surprised and happy they are still making music 10 years after the fact. It is a shame they can't break the barrier and I have no idea why. NC folk love southern music and country which has seeped into genres to include hip-hop/rap and pop, but somehow this Southern rock Titan-of-a-band has escaped everyone. It is a shame. If He is Legend is reading this, I am incredibly impressed with your fortitude and commitment. I chalked yall up as a loss in 2009 but 11 years later I am still enjoying your new releases. Thank You
probably one of the best songs I've ever heard and please hope this band never breaks up. so much talent. hope to catch them at a show here in Kansas City someday
Not sure of the band’s meaning of this track - But for me, it’s a conversation between the person you are now and the person you want to be. I put this on when I’m about to try something that seems impossible - this year, it was staring down a 25 foot snowboard jump at Mt. Hood - this track got me so f’n pumped. 👊👊
We fortunately had the opportunity to open for them at the recent St. Louis show, they’re live sound even in a small club is incredible. Very underrated band!
Ryan Mills Totally agree. First time I saw them live was when they supported Atreyu in 2005. Didn’t see them again until this year when they played at the Fleece in Bristol, such a small and intimate venue but they smashed it.
Donald L. I'm about to turn 26 and I too have been listening to HIL since I was 13. I've actually been working on an art collection based on their album covers!
Been listening to y'all since high school ('04) and I want to say I'm glad y'all keep rocking on. Schuylar! You're my spirit animal, man! Much love to everyone from Texas
I'm with them since "Suck out the Poison". Don't know how many times I've listened to those songs. Absolutely love them! Great music, great song! RIP McKenzie Bell
I love this song, and video! Anyone else still religiously listening to It hates you? Funny story, my profile picture was taken, right after I got done watching HIL side stage. Good times.
Never Heard of you guys before , But after Randomly Finding this and listening to other Songs ... You got a new Fan ... Love the Music .. I'm gonna go buy Some Music on Amazon now .... 🤘🤘🤘🤘
Check all their albums. Love all of it, here's my list. It Hates You, Suck out the poison, Heavy Fruit, Few (Still learning), then 91025. Give it time to grow on you and you'll always come back to their music.
Unlike darkest hour, it seems like the lineup change has been rough. I know he is legend has there original guitarist ( always the song writer in most cases). Anywayz, I was at the Nashville show that was part of the "attack of the dungeon witch" video, I'm in it". And as a long time fan, I feel for He Is Legend & Maylene for not getting the recognition they deserve! Forever live hardcore & metal ( whatever scene you subscribe too, lolz ) keep it real kids!
No matter how many times I listen to any of their songs past their album "I am Hollywood" just sounds.....okay to me. I love that album and I honestly think its their best work and always will be.
This band should be way more popular...it should be a crime against humanity that they're not as big as some of these lesser, and unoriginal bands we get..
I discovered these guys when they opened for killswitch engage at the house of blues for the end of heart ache tour. Chimaera played before them and too this day I remember them and have been a fan since then.
Criminally underrated band
damn indeed so, such good music
Says no one ever
@@BreadPitt7 says a lot of people
@@BreadPitt7 Someone hasn't heard any of their albums from beginning to end.
Love everything this band has done! They are very underrated, glad they're getting more recognition finally
Just caught my 8 year old daughter singing THIS in the shower.
Not Tay Tay. Not One-D.
THIS.
My work is done. 🤘🏼🙌🏽
that 4/4 into 3/4 is one of the most simple yet incredibly fulfilling time signature changes i've ever heard
and it's was incredibly mind fucking for me to learn on guitart
He Is Legend never got the recognition they deserved, but they'll always be legends to the people that know them.
They're still crushing it man, don't talk about them like they're dead lmao
Dude they are definitely underrated and a lot of folks are missing out on them that don't know about them. But they got a beer named after them now that's pretty fucking epic if you ask me.

Christopher Lopez .. and will become a real legend

if the opening riff doesn’t make your head bang there’s something extremely wrong with you
+1,000,000
I was just doing that when I saw your comment lol
You're not wrong.
This band makes me want to head bang my head against the wall
@@andreagodinez7543 how long ago did you see them drunk, just wondering? You seem very upset about it
His voice is so clean and yet husky. One of the best voices in rock.

Wish the rest of the album had this tone to it. Don’t get me wrong, it’s great, this just has mad swagger to it.
When you leave, and you will
When the going gets tough
And you turn tail and run
We're aware that you're scared
But uncertainty's always nine tenths of the fun
Stay with me, I'm begging you
Don't do this on your own
Stay with me, I'm not a fool
Not just for anyone
Every time you return
With fresh meat in your teeth
And a spark in your eye
Does it burn, burn for me
I have never been strong enough to be released
Stay with me, I'm begging you
Don't do this on your own
Stay with me, I'm not a fool
Not just for anyone
Stay with me
I'm…
Been following you guys for close to 15 years, some of my all-time favorite music! Glad to see you guys still making great music. NC Represent!!!!
Ever since I Am Hollywood. Saw them when I lived in Savannah ga before I moved back to sc when the suck out the poison album came out and one of the best live shows I've ever been to

Wilmington represented!!
why are these guys so cool?
These guys deserve more attention
Zach Johnston they had a TON of attention in the early 2000's. "I Am Hollywood" was HUGE when I was in high school. Saw them live numerous times.
Zach Johnston they like being a “smaller” band. They rarely do headliner tours. They prefer to open for bigger bands playing bigger shows to gain more fans. Rather than have a headline tour playing small venues.

probably one of the best songs I've ever heard and please hope this band never breaks up. so much talent. hope to catch them at a show here in Kansas City someday
He is legend is the only thing I really listen to I don’t listen to anything else and don’t plan to
Still killin it and this album has the best guitar sound by them ever
My God, these guys never disappoint.
Been ten years since i heard of he is legend. Very glad they still going hard
FANTASTIC. Bring back the 2000s metal.

Where have you been all my life!
So many years since 2003 and I'm still in love with Schuylar Croom. He's so amazing and his voice is still so strong and incredible!
Best sounding guitar production I think I've ever heard
iDrinkJ4ck Nolly produced this album, thats why its sounds fucking greaaat
Mr Hamburgler periphery Nolly? Or someone else
periphery Nolly, yeah
Mr Hamburgler Dang! Yeah it shows, seriously amazing production.
To be fair, this band always has the best sounding guitar production ive ever heard! seriously kick ass
This song should be longer. Good stuff
Just started hearing this band. Can't believe they only have 90k listeners on spotify. Wow
Just such a fucking good band. I've loved every album you guys have released
Damn Right!
We fortunately had the opportunity to open for them at the recent St. Louis show, they’re live sound even in a small club is incredible. Very underrated band!

Oliver Lloyd Amen bro. I'm 28 and have been listening to these guys since I was 13.
Donald L. I'm about to turn 26 and I too have been listening to HIL since I was 13. I've actually been working on an art collection based on their album covers!
I'm so glad they came back to make more music. And this is some great follow up material boys.
Fav song on the album!!! god this riff has been in my head for 4 months basically.
ive played this song altleast 1000 times by now haha
Pretty good, im sure ive already heared it somewhere. Thanks lex for the reccomend.
Been listening since 2005. Keep at it boys 💜
Imo, one of the greatest written rock songs.
That drum beat change is SICK
Absolute banger
Been a fan since i am hollywood. Best southern metal band for me.
Truly knew they wouldn't be a disappointment !!! Hell yea 👏
Love this as much as i love anal thank you spotify!
He Is Legend is everything.
He is Legend continues to be amazing.
Been listening to y'all since high school ('04) and I want to say I'm glad y'all keep rocking on. Schuylar! You're my spirit animal, man! Much love to everyone from Texas
This song is just too good. The 4 against 6 stuff in the verses is just too good. And so is the rest of it
I'm with them since "Suck out the Poison". Don't know how many times I've listened to those songs. Absolutely love them! Great music, great song! RIP McKenzie Bell
This band is sooooooo underrated.
he is legend, he really is a legend!
I love this song, and video! Anyone else still religiously listening to It hates you? Funny story, my profile picture was taken, right after I got done watching HIL side stage. Good times.
It Hates You is still probably my favorite rock record of the 2000s.
RELIGIOUSLY! Keen to start a cult of she?
The ending of Mean Shadows is one of the heaviest parts in any song ever haha
It hates you hits, so hard. Always.
@@cwirk Fuckin yes dude!
He Is Legend with this much melody makes me so happy... takes me back to I Am Hollywood! So dank!
I’m old enough now to realize that changing up sound is important and often times necessary, and I still love you guys so much
Never Heard of you guys before , But after Randomly Finding this and listening to other Songs ... You got a new Fan ... Love the Music .. I'm gonna go buy Some Music on Amazon now .... 🤘🤘🤘🤘
MyLIfeAndShit oh you're about 15 years late to the scene! But fret not! EVERY album since 91025 is GOLD.
Check all their albums. Love all of it, here's my list. It Hates You, Suck out the poison, Heavy Fruit, Few (Still learning), then 91025. Give it time to grow on you and you'll always come back to their music.
Very awesome band,they are great also when play live 🙂🤘🤘
One of my favs off the album.
These guys put on an awesome show on the Gwar: Blood of the Gods tour (Houston). Been listening to them nonstop on Spotify ever since.
I'm warning youuuuuuuuu 💙
Been along for the ride since ‘03. Hope they keep pouring it out for more years to come.
i bet Anakin Skywalker hates this song...
Can confirm. He said it himself.
It's course, and it's rough...and it gets everywhere...
yes he hates it
I don’t get it
Found yall because of danny from bury tomorrow. Thoroughly enjoy the music.
Just found this band! Listened to Seduction and this and just WOW!
Unlike darkest hour, it seems like the lineup change has been rough. I know he is legend has there original guitarist ( always the song writer in most cases).

Sick Song! Great underrated band!
Keep playing this song over and over again.
No matter how many times I listen to any of their songs past their album "I am Hollywood" just sounds.....okay to me. I love that album and I honestly think its their best work and always will be.
I know this is an old comment but you aren't alone. I don't think they can recapture that vibe but dungeon was probably closest.
And that TRUTH kit so fuckin nice... dayum
Best song and ever video ever created
C.B what what!!
Thank you for making such great music.
Great riffs!!!
Musically this could easily be a Hopesfall song
Best front man since Jagger !
This band should be way more popular...it should be a crime against humanity that they're not as big as some of these lesser, and unoriginal bands we get..
Been following you for over 15 years! Él es leyenda!
new fav.

Amazing, been waiting a long time for a live shot video. Keep pouring it out boys.
