Lotus' voice reeeally fits this (post-hardcore? whatever you wanna call it) genre so well, I hope he continues collabing with bands like SKSK cause this shit is a certified banger
I’m a Lil Lotus stan (he’s from Dallas and doing my favorite style of music currently). I’ve been a SKSK fan since like 2010 and it’s a great pairing. Lotus just fits here, his vocals are so great for this post hardcore style. It’s a great song, and you can tell Lotus respects the hell out of SKSK and gave it his all. What a kick ass song and video.
Me too. I live in Dallas and have been a Lotus fan for a while now. I think out of all this "pop punk is making a comeback" stuff, Lotus is doing it the best.
What SKSK are doing with this record is very awesome. Every song having a different singer well known in the scene is something band's don't do that often. I remember that Japanese Post-Hardcore band Pay Money For My Pain did the same thing when their singer died as well. It's a new twist on things but I feel like it's also a way of honoring the memory of the singer as well. So I can't wait for this new album!
This band just couldn’t replace Tyson he was such a major instrumental part of the band. So instead of trying to replace him they honored him. With a beautiful song and with allowing all these other amazing artist a chance at platform by featuring multiple artist in the front man spot. I couldn’t be more proud of this band and the ideas they have been doing
It warms my heart to know that Tyson is not forgotten. I love my son and lots hard to believe that he’s been gone 10 years! Oct. 20th his death anniversary.🥲🎶

I saw them live the other day 🔥🔥🔥🔥 boys still got it. Vaines / Kurt Travis are a powerful combo for doing live old and new songs. If you see this song live this current tour it will be sung primarily by Vaines, which he kills it.
I dig it, sure it’s not the old SKSK, but how could it be? It’s been 10 plus years. People age and so does music. No one stays the same and either does the music that we listen to or play. Love to see Lil Lotus. He’s a fucking Jedi.
Then change the band's name. Think Matt joining Three Days Grace after Adam left. It's good, but it ain't TDG without Adam in the band. Might as well be My Darkest Grace. The people coming back to SKSK are people who listened to them 10 years ago - those are the people who are going to either keep them or make them relevant again. The kids willing to listen to this type of music nowadays are far and few.
@@icanmakeeverythingilovedie9861 you make a very good point, and you’re definitely not wrong. I remember reading a statement from the guitar player saying they were NOT planning on making any new music a year ago, so I was quite shocked when this new song dropped. I guess we shall see what the future holds for the band.
@icanmakeeverythingilovedie Idk my friend. This type of music is making a strong come-back. Look at If I Die First (also lil lotus) and SeeYouSpaceCowboy... the kids these days still have lots of love this sass.
This doesn't really sound like SKSK, but it's a good song I really like the chorus. Looking forward to the Jesse Cash, Donovan Melero, Spencer Chamberlain, and Cove Reber features
@@zinnyzxx cove is not in the band... They aren't moving forward with a lead singer.. all songs have guest features and every tour they go on will have a singer from a different band... Craig mabbit was supposed to be the singer for this tour.. however they have a different vocalist since Craig got covid.
@@citizn-xh7rv the album is great but it is DEFINITELY NOT what Scary Kids got famous for. They might as well had just started a new band with the sound being completely new.
Had the pleasure of seeing SKSK, they sang this song.. didn't get to meet Lil lotus.. but Kurt Travis from dance Gavin dance was singing on the tour.. was soooo lit
Wow, this is great! This reminds me of what I used to LOVE about Taking Back Sunday and The Used in particular. So glad that you’re bringing this sound back!
Saw SKSK at Warped Tour, Detroit in 06 I believe? I remember the keyboard player spending several minutes making sure he busted his keyboard in half at the end of their set. So gnarly, great band live! :D
Glad the rest of the guys are doing their thing and the song is good, but I'm really hoping that the rest of the album at least embodies something that made Scary Kids, Scary Kids... I was hoping for an SKSK riff in the beginning or something!
I was very taken aback when I listened to this song for the first time but the more I hear it, the more I think "yep, this is definitely a SKSK song". Can't wait to see what the other vocalists can show off.
I'm with you. This isn't the SKSK I fell in love with but glad the band is still able to play and make music they want after their tragic loss. Wish them the best.
Heard SKSK at Goldfield Tradiing Post in Roseville last night. Lil Lotus stepped in with this and Lotus killed it! Thanks so much for sharing this with us. I hope you do more work together!
Lotus, do the world a favor and keep singing for SKSK. I like your original stuff, not dissing at all. SKSK will never be the same either, but your are a great fit. Everyone did a great job with this song.
Apparently they are having a different singer for every song on the album. He will be on at least one, hopefully more. His new band Dead American just dropped their debut full length and it is absolutely amazing. #NewNostalgia on Velocity Records AND they are currently on the Velocity Records Tour with SKSK & D.R.U.G.S.
Definitely not their usual sound, but still good. If you haven't listened yet I highly suggest it. They've been one of my favorite bands since I was like 11, I'm 26 now.
Out of all the new SKSK releases I've heard so far this is easily the best and most true to what I think SKSK is. I'm not the band of course but after hearing their music for so many years and seeing one of the recent reunion shows I just see this one giving the most ooooomph

why was this taken off spotify? I love this song, please bring it back
Day it comes back on Spotify I'll be a happy camper
Yeah honestly wtf happen?
They wanted to douche their potential success.
Licensing
its back now
Lotus' voice reeeally fits this (post-hardcore? whatever you wanna call it) genre so well, I hope he continues collabing with bands like SKSK cause this shit is a certified banger
Check out his band If I Die First
He Sings To Make Children Die
Had a blast putting together this video for a band we grew up listening too! Hope everyone enjoys!
Great job! What did you shoot it on?
Iconic
@@forgottenuts Sony FX6 with the Atlas Orion Anamorphic set including their brand new 25mm Orion.
@@ReelbrosMedia nice, I've never shot anamorphic before, always wanted to. Turned out great.
Is the audio supposed to be mono?
Lotus should try to make more cleans for If I Die First. His clean vocals fits this genre so well.
I agree tbh and Travis should scream
Couldn’t agree more
Pretty sure he does quite a lot of the more aggressive cleans on the records, he just leaves it to Zubin for live shows for some reason.

Another band that has done this is Strawberry Girls. Check them out, they are so amazing. :)
I’ve waited 12 years for this day! Can’t wait to meet u all march 11th in Orlando! Lil lotus fits right in ❤️ RIP Tyson 💔
Lotus fits perfect with them. Can't wait to hear the rest of the album, been hoping for this new SKSK for so long.
Why is this not on Spotify anymore? They took it out

Very beautifully said. It's such a moving album and this track is really special, imo.

Kurt sang it in slc vains was on drums 😔
@@chandleryates7642 why was he on drums?
Oh good, it's back up. 👀
I said the same thing. I fucked shit up when I found out the next day
Lil lotus is such a boss. He should've done s whole album with them. Best song on the album
Such a good song, I am always pleasantly surprised at Lil Lotus's talent.
And of course Kurt does this song justice live.
Right? I just found him today and am just cruising through what he's done on here.
He's bringing back the 2000s I like it

@@ButtKiss69ten4 I did not know that. I am set to see them this month. Thanks for the heads up!
Sounds like old Palisades, I dig it
Much love💚
So nice to hear new Scary Kids.
Tyson would be so proud. This is dope, and Lotus is a perfect fit for this. Love it!
This doesn't really sound like SKSK, but it's a good song I really like the chorus. Looking forward to the Jesse Cash, Donovan Melero, Spencer Chamberlain, and Cove Reber features
Is this confirmed?
Isn't Cove in the band? Do they have a designated singer?
@@niclasswe yes, you can check out the track list for the Vinyls they are selling right now! Each song has a different vocalist in it.

@@charlesdstmartin90 someone named "Vaines" I think is what I heard.
I wish I could find more new music EXACTLY like this.
Why did this get taken off of spotify?😭
Love it still playin this song alot
ELITE CHORUS
Oi this is dope! I remeber seeing them live years ago in London with support from Drop Dead Gorgeous, was fire! Can't find this tune on Spotify tho?!
Keep carrying on the SKSK legacy🖤
As a very early sksk fan I don't know how I feel about this one.
Yea this sounds like an entirely different group and genre altogether
Check out silent planet
@@citizn-xh7rv the album is great but it is DEFINITELY NOT what Scary Kids got famous for. They might as well had just started a new band with the sound being completely new.

I feel my teenage self becoming very happy all of a sudden
Wow, this is great!
This reminds me of what I used to LOVE about Taking Back Sunday and The Used in particular. So glad that you’re bringing this sound back!
randomly thought of scary kids. Do a search to find this new jam. Sweet job to everyone involved. Great product.
Best combo on RUclips
Saw SKSK at Warped Tour, Detroit in 06 I believe? I remember the keyboard player spending several minutes making sure he busted his keyboard in half at the end of their set. So gnarly, great band live! :D
dude.. lil lotus got the fucking midas touch man..
It's good to know SKSK still makes music. Nice.
Is the audio in mono or is it just me?
It’s back!!
Yup I raised hell like no other. Talking shit and everything
I think Tyson would be happy you guys sure miss him a lot and know you do too will be getting the new album for sure!
Forever a Scary Kid
The intro had me worried but this was a great track. I'm so glad you guys are back.
@@XxByePolarxX It really does. I'm hoping we get more tracks with Cove Reber from Saosin.
Glad the rest of the guys are doing their thing and the song is good, but I'm really hoping that the rest of the album at least embodies something that made Scary Kids, Scary Kids... I was hoping for an SKSK riff in the beginning or something!
this was beautiful.
Lotus sounds fantastic here. Would love more
I stumbled upon this by accident and oh man is my past inner emo kid showing hardcore.
LiL Lotus AND my favorite band from high school? 🔥
Thank you
Scary kids scaring kids! WELCOME BACK MY FRIENDS! I missed you guys! 🥺🥺😳
I was very taken aback when I listened to this song for the first time but the more I hear it, the more I think "yep, this is definitely a SKSK song". Can't wait to see what the other vocalists can show off.
This isn't my thing at all, but I'm glad you guys are releasing music again. ❤
I wish more people were like you with their attitude towards this song. Thank you for your positivity :)
I'm with you. This isn't the SKSK I fell in love with but glad the band is still able to play and make music they want after their tragic loss. Wish them the best.
why this is not in spotify anymore?😭
I can't believe SKSK is playing music again. I missed you guys. It's nice to see SKSK again.
The question is why did they take this video down
Wtf.. I was looking for lil Lotus but what I see..? One of my favorite bands SKSK. Wow.
Beautiful video
Lotus is next level dude, also think it would be dope to see mod sun collab with his old band..
lotus fits this band sooo well omg
years later, still fucking bang. respect.
im more of a metalcore fan myself but this is really good.
same to me. I grew up with metalcore, posthc and "emo" bands. Glad to see how the emo era has its comeback with these collabs and samples
Yo so y'all made a banger, melody been stuck in my head for 3 days!
This song impressively convinces me that Lil Lotus should do a lot more singing than ever rapping.
Saw this live in Denver. Good shit.
Ain’t no darkest hour…
Heard SKSK at Goldfield Tradiing Post in Roseville last night. Lil Lotus stepped in with this and Lotus killed it! Thanks so much for sharing this with us. I hope you do more work together!
Such a beautiful collab
Lotus, do the world a favor and keep singing for SKSK. I like your original stuff, not dissing at all. SKSK will never be the same either, but your are a great fit. Everyone did a great job with this song.
This is first song I have heard in years from S.K.S.K. and I love it .
Yup and they took it down. I was so pissed
Love it!! Thought cove was on this too
Apparently they are having a different singer for every song on the album. He will be on at least one, hopefully more. His new band Dead American just dropped their debut full length and it is absolutely amazing. #NewNostalgia on Velocity Records AND they are currently on the Velocity Records Tour with SKSK & D.R.U.G.S.
why isnt this on spotify anymore
Been waiting for this for so long 🥺❤️🤟
Shit at this point I'm happy the band is back. Been a fan for 10 years, probably be one for 10 more
I love this song and can't stop listening to it. So good and the lyrics are amazing.
Killed it ! Ft. Lil Lotus crazy !
Never heard of this band. Don’t know if this is their normal sound or not. Looks like this is a comeback song. Whatever it is, I love it!
Definitely not their usual sound, but still good. If you haven't listened yet I highly suggest it. They've been one of my favorite bands since I was like 11, I'm 26 now.
I saw this band when I was 16 in Australia. The magic portal has reopened.... lil lotus was fantastic!
I’m 31 now lol
This song is dope bruh...need to come to México....sksk 4 evaaaaaa
This was a sweet collab
Out of all the new SKSK releases I've heard so far this is easily the best and most true to what I think SKSK is. I'm not the band of course but after hearing their music for so many years and seeing one of the recent reunion shows I just see this one giving the most ooooomph
Crying right now
Continue like this ❤️🎸🎤🥁🤟💥
Sounds refreshing
Came from an ad, I’m glad I didn’t skip it
Sheeeesh
New SKSK anddd with Lil Lotus, dope! :D
So good. Lil lotus is king of emo !

If I were a teen I would like this
I was pleasantly surprised
This sounds fantastic and catchy !! Greetings from a fellow artist from Colombia ☺️
Hell yea they are BACK! With 🔥🔥🔥

The return of the goats
That's a band name I haven't seen in a while. So sick!
SKSK for ever ❤️ Chile🇨🇱
So glad SKSK is making new music! Sad the lead singer is gone though :(
Omg, so good
Damn this is amazing
I was expecting the worst, but this is awesome! Can't wait for more
Scary Kids Scaring Kids is back and the new song is so damn good
