I like how TDWP not only progresses in their writing; they progress in everything about the band: live performance, merch designs and music videos. Love the new album, and the music video!
I have been a fan of this band for over six years now and I will say that you guys just keep getting better. I will always love this band as long as you guys are around.Hopefully I will be seeing you guys in Indy!
Everything they write has a unique way of displaying itself on the screen, every music video has layers of subtle irony that show how lost some of our morals have become, Brilliant
Its our struggle against blinding attraction of love, life and work at first sight, that we blindlessly follow what we see first without thinking or feeling. That no matter how far you go or fall, the sight is always pulling you back. One of my favorites along with dear john and number eleven. Embrace things at first sight yet look at them from a distance.
Maria Juranic did some really good work on this video. Check the Songfacts entry for the full story, but it's about a guy trapped at work in an office, with only his mind as a means for escape. If you work on a computer, you can probably relate.
I pray that Mike's vocal stay strong. He is so brutal and powerful - but that comes with a price on the vocal cords. Praise the good Lord his vox stay inspiring !!
Promise the lake Don't try, don't be Exist just like me Promise shame Every bit of everything is screaming so quietly Is there anything else to say? Are there any more words to sing? Right after doubting all the things you claim Right before giving all of it away I thought I was ready to write but you had me years ago You had me at first sight even if it means nothing now Promise these hands No more empty praise and worship Get lost at first sight I'm driving my car away I'm heading north I thought I was ready to write but you had me years ago You had me at first sight even if it means nothing now It hurts most in the mornings and I wish I was in Chicago Their statements are all contradictions and I don't think they can figure it out All our damages transform us We're like our own historians Is there anything else to say? Are there anymore words to sing? Every bit of everything is screaming Promise the lake Get lost at first sight
Ya'll are arguing about what their logo stands for...they said in an interview that it literally means nothing. They just wanted something simple and memorable. I think it accomplishes that.
^this, they also hated their band name cause of that chick-flick that came out and they didn't want to be remembered as the band with the name of a chick-flick lol. Mike talks about it a lot when asked about the name.
To the guy saying "illuminate" on their logo: They explained in several interviews that they got tired of trying to find ways of making "TDWP" look cool, so they just made a random logo that's easier to advertise
Its our struggle against blinding attraction of love, life and work at first sight, that we blindlessly follow what we see first without thinking or feeling. That no matter how far you go or fall, the sight is always pulling you back.
So now people give a shit about the band logo after this video is out and think it has to do with the illuminati but they didn't care about it when dead throne was out
There's actually an interview where they said that the logo doesn't mean anything. They basically made the logo because writing "The Devil Wears Prada" on shirts and stuff was long and obnoxious (don't quote me) but they just needed a way to physically identify themselves using something more subtle
Mike's screams aren't shot. The band decided to grow up from the teenie weenie metalcore. Now that they've matured, and still continue to do it with each release, I think they will lose fans and gain even more. They're better than ever. Such a masterpiece this album is.
I don't really understand why everyone complain about how generic metalcore can be , c'mun Metalcore isn't more generic than Thrash Metal or Death Metal or any other kind of metal , each kind have generic band ! If you don't like a certain genre , it's normal that you thought that this genre is fucking generic .... Listen what you want but don't forget that the music you like can be fucking generic for someone else , so stop with the generic everywhere ;)
I adore these guys, they sure DO put a lot more focus in making music and music videos than other bands do. It's not a usual cliche metalcore video and that what makes me even more proud of them. It's the level where music becomes pure art and personality expression.
umm to the people saying this is shit, i think their older stuff isn't very good, i think its very sloppy and all over the place, right here it sounds like they actually found their sound that fits them and it sounds different to me at least. how is this generic? sounds different to most of the metalcore bands today.
Satanic? Are you people blind? The video portrays a man searching for something (presumably the meaning of life, but I don't really know). He struggles and appears to be bound by the eye of society which attempts to control his thoughts. When he finally gives in to God's love and grace, everything appears small and insignificant. This is finally juxtaposed to the man who doesn't accept God and spends his entire life searching for what's not there. The song is about accepting God's grace and mercy. But yeah, that's totally a functioning element of satanic worship, right?
holy shit they've changed so much, ive stopped listening to them years ago, i must say , generic metalcore is now everywhere i look, it was fun in 2005 - 2006 - 2007 tho...
Yeah same here bro... They used to be so unique i miss head banging to their glorious music. Now they just sound the same as every other fucking generic band and i guarantee you they are not christian anymore.
By all of their "Eye" and mystic connotation in their videos. Lets set aside the whole Illuminati debate, any christian band would not affiliate or display suchsymbols/themes. At least any real "christian" bands. All im saying is that TDWP is no longer tdwp we once knew or even looked up to for their beliefs like i did.
Hernan Hironymus yeah ok i get your point, i know a lot on the ''christian'' subject since i was born and raised in a ''baptist'' family, im glad i grew a mind and ''got out of it'', but what i mean is, i think the members of tdwp will always be christians, and for them its not evil displaying mystic signs, cause i think they thought of a christian meaning to put behind them, anyfuckingwaaaaaayy man. their good times are long passed. peace my friend!
I may be getting a bit superstitious, but their logo is a triangle and an eye traps and pulls him into it, where you next see him swallowed by a mouth suggesting his speech is gone. Later on you see in the book him running from something, then the book closes and multiple eyes run out, maybe he was running from the eye i don't know. I hope this band hasn't got illuminate on us.
SOMETHING IS UP. This video is obviously about author Stieg Larsson. Larsson was a left-wing supporter, against hierarchy, and supported equality BUT an organization went after him and he went into hiding. That book in the video, it's HIS. I did a lot of research, so trust me, I KNOW. And this video is ANTI-masonic. "I thought I was ready to leap on you, but you had me years ago, you had me at first sight." The eye in the background, the one that pulls him in, is a symbol of that organization. An 'all-seeing eye.' Usually, it's depicted with an UPRIGHT triangle around it. THIS BAND'S logo is DIFFERENT. IT REPRESENTS THE HOLY TRINITY. AND IF YOU PUT THE TWO TOGETHER, YOU GET THE STAR OF DAVID! IT MEANS SOMETHING!!!
I missed amazing videos like this, reminds me a lot to the videos of Hey Jhon... and Assistant to the Regional Manager. The Devil Wears Prada, never disappointing
i think its a mixture of both when Mike does anything off Zombie EP, Roots, Plagues etc he is more winded and hes his highs dont quite have the punch as they used to but he can still get through the songs with the same vocal tone if he wanted to go into a studio and do his vox from 4 years ago he probally could just with a slighty weaker voice he has he probally decided to mix things up so he can give better live performances.
Joseph Tenaglia I would be very impressed if he was hitting the screams I heard years ago on their albums. Not saying new tunes are shit by any means, I like the band and have listened to them for years. But I have heard and seen if enough that this sounds to me like hes done some damage...Hope I'm wrong.
This is why i've stopped listening to christian metal.. i'm always not sure if i'm listening to Christ or the devil. I've had experiences with false prophets. They broke me and listen to their music it certainly will not help me to heal! Fake christians makes me SICK.
I think its just being human. We all have douts and other days we need any type of hope wehter its rewl or not, just a way to find a convincing confort to take us through the day. Cant blame people dor being hot ane cold as this place is pretty dam fucked up. And just ro say by our own actions. Me, im too into the music I forget prada was even a christian band

You obviously need to pay more attention to their lyrics. The whole dead throne album is about idolatry, hence the symbol in the video which represents this "dead throne" idol. TDWP members are just as human as you or myself, sin and all. If you are interested in a song about false prophets, you should look up Impending Doom's - Deceiver. It's a little dark, but speaks truth.
Dude, mike's words hit home everytime I listen to his stuff. This video is a good reminder not to get wrapped up in our own focus. This is my take from it.
it sounds like he has ruined his voice from screaming and they have to just edit the shit out of it. I just don't like it anymore, only albums i like are the first two
This record kicks a lot of ass. Honestly, from intelligent and personal lyrics to the solid hypnotic rifs and drum lines that can make anyone appreciate the instrument, If this album won't turn you, there's probably not a whole lot that would.

Man. Coming back on this after so many years, you could literally release this in 10 minutes and it would fit right in.
This album was when they started their more progressive trajectory out of traditional metalcore cliches and really found their own voice.
Outro is insane
I still think Mike has a crazy screaming voice, like how it's different
I'm not Christian at all but I love these lyrics. Anything about belief can circle back to anything you believe in, making it easy to relate to.
its breaks my heart to see the devil wears prada with 250k views. like they pretty much created every band thats out there now thats in the genre
There were many bands doing this before them, come on....
still my favorite band since Plagues
Amazing. I love how they are mixing mikes emotions into the vocals to match the lyrics of this album. Simply the best album by them thus far.
OUVINDO AGORA 2022 🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽❤
I like how TDWP not only progresses in their writing; they progress in everything about the band: live performance, merch designs and music videos. Love the new album, and the music video!
Most. Beautiful. Video.. I've ever seen in my life!
This video is too great, they will always be one of my favorite bands. I can't wait to see them at Warped this year!
This is one of their best songs imo the musicianship is spectacular
Forever a fan.
I have been a fan of this band for over six years now and I will say that you guys just keep getting better. I will always love this band as long as you guys are around.Hopefully I will be seeing you guys in Indy!

Man The Devil Wears Prada never disappoints.
This band is AWESOME

That no matter how far you go or fall, the sight is always pulling you back. One of my favorites along with dear john and number eleven.

Raw, emotional, powerful, (mostly) unedited vocals, and a mature and refined band behind it. This band has my respect :) sick song
I miss this era
2020 escuchando esta bueno canción
I swear to God best video in the world
I wish they got more views, they deserve more for certain.
Such powerful imagery. Especially if you understand the symbolism used here. Brilliant.
Maria Juranic did some really good work on this video. Check the Songfacts entry for the full story, but it's about a guy trapped at work in an office, with only his mind as a means for escape. If you work on a computer, you can probably relate.
This video is so underrated, and it's so good.
Thank goodness. A music video that isn't a band singing in a forest. So amazing.
i love this band
So good. These guys have come a long way.
I pray that Mike's vocal stay strong. He is so brutal and powerful - but that comes with a price on the vocal cords. Praise the good Lord his vox stay inspiring !!
You should listen to the new song south of the city sounds better then ever
isaac ruegg It only harms the vocal cords if you do it wrong
that breakdown sounds so clean, i love it.
that bass adds a whole new sound to it.
Promise the lake
Don't try, don't be
Exist just like me
Promise shame
Every bit of everything is screaming so quietly
Is there anything else to say?
Are there any more words to sing?
Right after doubting all the things you claim
Right before giving all of it away
I thought I was ready to write but you had me years ago
You had me at first sight even if it means nothing now
Promise these hands
No more empty praise and worship
Get lost at first sight
I'm driving my car away
I'm heading north
I thought I was ready to write but you had me years ago
You had me at first sight even if it means nothing now
It hurts most in the mornings and I wish I was in Chicago
Their statements are all contradictions and I don't think they can figure it out
All our damages transform us
We're like our own historians
Is there anything else to say?
Are there anymore words to sing?
Every bit of everything is screaming
Promise the lake
Get lost at first sight
Congratulations!! You copied the description and pasted it in the comments.
Been waiting for these guys to go on tour and now they have one hell of a tour leg in the US!!!!
Ya'll are arguing about what their logo stands for...they said in an interview that it literally means nothing. They just wanted something simple and memorable. I think it accomplishes that.
^this, they also hated their band name cause of that chick-flick that came out and they didn't want to be remembered as the band with the name of a chick-flick lol.
Mike talks about it a lot when asked about the name.
Huh??
This was the first song I've ever head from this band, right when it came out. For years I've been trying to find which one it was and I finally did.
First song I've ever hear by them.
I'm fucking hooked.
TDWP sounds better than ever. Long live hard music!
I was so wrong about metalcore.......
+The Rant Kid (TheRantKid) This definitely the upper end of modern metalcore. I like this record a lot
Unblack metal.
Welp .. ya
a do prdele... vážně? pánové, tak to smekám.... povedlo se vám to a to jsem to neočekával... Děkuji ... jste pro mě, myšlenkou...
To the guy saying "illuminate" on their logo: They explained in several interviews that they got tired of trying to find ways of making "TDWP" look cool, so they just made a random logo that's easier to advertise
I agree. lol
This is the best band out there today and they keep getting better
Can anyone explain what this song/video means? I'm trying to figure it out, but it's challenging..
Its our struggle against blinding attraction of love, life and work at first sight, that we blindlessly follow what we see first without thinking or feeling. That no matter how far you go or fall, the sight is always pulling you back.
Loved it
So now people give a shit about the band logo after this video is out and think it has to do with the illuminati but they didn't care about it when dead throne was out
no, not at all, it's religious
and it was already their logo during dead throne/dead and alive tour
They are Christians so logo has to do with it
Three lines are crosses with the one in the middle being the most important (Jesus), and the triangle represents the trinity.
There's actually an interview where they said that the logo doesn't mean anything. They basically made the logo because writing "The Devil Wears Prada" on shirts and stuff was long and obnoxious (don't quote me) but they just needed a way to physically identify themselves using something more subtle
i wish the band was actually in their newest videos, i miss their faces!
Are you guys ready to perform at Warped Tour 2014?!?! I can't wait to watch you!!!
This comment makes me sad 😥
Se los extraña a los prada 🔱
2021 guys...who with me🙋🏼♂️🙋🏼♂️🙋🏼♂️
Me mate
Same
2024
They are so sick good live!
I thought this band was like any other ordinary heavy metal bands but I was wrong HAHA,I should have discovered this band long ago
excelente video
Mike's screams aren't shot. The band decided to grow up from the teenie weenie metalcore. Now that they've matured, and still continue to do it with each release, I think they will lose fans and gain even more. They're better than ever. Such a masterpiece this album is.
Lol
Truth.
2:30 till the end..... SO GREAT!
in a sea of shit, TDWP is still making good music.
Great video! I love this band so much...
I don't really understand why everyone complain about how generic metalcore can be , c'mun Metalcore isn't more generic than Thrash Metal or Death Metal or any other kind of metal , each kind have generic band !

Great song
Wish they made a full length album that sounded like Zombie EP :(
When I get older these songs get better to me.
THE DEVIL WEARS PRADA :D
This is the first time I've listened to these guys in three years... Have they changed a lot!
Satanic? Are you people blind? The video portrays a man searching for something (presumably the meaning of life, but I don't really know).

But yeah, that's totally a functioning element of satanic worship, right?
Praise it!
Ugh. I can't wait to see them live. 3
Ho ho shit. My soul.
Wow. Really intense video. Favorite song on the record!
holy shit they've changed so much, ive stopped listening to them years ago, i must say , generic metalcore is now everywhere i look, it was fun in 2005 - 2006 - 2007 tho...
Yeah same here bro... They used to be so unique i miss head banging to their glorious music. Now they just sound the same as every other fucking generic band and i guarantee you they are not christian anymore.
ah thats interessting, how do you know they are no more christian?

Yeah for sure, good deal man take care!
I am in love with 8:18! cant wait for more music videos! TDWP never disappoints
Stop worrying about the illuminati and just listen to the damn music!
right^
This song and video are Hella AWESOME!
Lmao the chorus sounds like "I thought I was ready to rape"..
y u do dis?
It totally does haha.
Cannot unhear D;
every time i sing the chorus, I remember this comment.
Aaron Ryan It doesn't even sound like "write".
This is the same The Devil Wears Prada that we all know and love!
I may be getting a bit superstitious, but their logo is a triangle and an eye traps and pulls him into it, where you next see him swallowed by a mouth suggesting his speech is gone. Later on you see in the book him running from something, then the book closes and multiple eyes run out, maybe he was running from the eye i don't know. I hope this band hasn't got illuminate on us.
relax man, the symbols are just for artistic purposes. It's the same deal with the Parper Lungs video by Underoath
Yeah i don't doubt it, just you know, all these " Artists " are doing what they are told to do instead of just doing it themselves.
SOMETHING IS UP. This video is obviously about author Stieg Larsson.
Larsson was a left-wing supporter, against hierarchy, and supported equality
BUT an organization went after him and he went into hiding.
That book in the video, it's HIS.

please, tell me you don't actually believe in this bullshit
Weird shit always happens with bands
I missed amazing videos like this, reminds me a lot to the videos of Hey Jhon... and Assistant to the Regional Manager. The Devil Wears Prada, never disappointing
well his vocals are shot! that sucks, time to learn to sing now.
His vocals are fine their just evolving their style, I just saw them live 2 this year and when he plays the old songs he sounds the same.
Joseph Tenaglia Nah, I think he damaged his vocal cords like many other vocalists out there.
+Ryan BurnsRed it's Possible but the old songs sound the same as they did then now live.
i think its a mixture of both when Mike does anything off Zombie EP, Roots, Plagues etc he is more winded and hes his highs dont quite have the punch as they used to but he can still get through the songs with the same vocal tone if he wanted to go into a studio and do his vox from 4 years ago he probally could just with a slighty weaker voice he has he probally decided to mix things up so he can give better live performances.

I love 8:18 so much. This release is probably my favorite since With Roots Above, so good.
This is why i've stopped listening to christian metal.. i'm always not sure if i'm listening to Christ or the devil.
I've had experiences with false prophets. They broke me and listen to their music it certainly will not help me to heal! Fake christians makes me SICK.
I think its just being human. We all have douts and other days we need any type of hope wehter its rewl or not, just a way to find a convincing confort to take us through the day. Cant blame people dor being hot ane cold as this place is pretty dam fucked up. And just ro say by our own actions. Me, im too into the music I forget prada was even a christian band

Maybe you should stop living in a fantasy land with a bunch of make believe beings.
You obviously need to pay more attention to their lyrics. The whole dead throne album is about idolatry, hence the symbol in the video which represents this "dead throne" idol.

you make me sick by thinking god is real ha
Dude, mike's words hit home everytime I listen to his stuff. This video is a good reminder not to get wrapped up in our own focus. This is my take from it.
Just btw this is Christian music lol... It's just screamo about god
The way you worded that was retarded.
Not screamo.
MrCzeroolz What ever it's called I don't really listen to this type of music.
Then why are you here if you dont listen to this kind of music. You just look like an idiot.
STOP CALLING SCREAMO SH**!!
I love the band as a whole. The video is very cool.
it sounds like he has ruined his voice from screaming and they have to just edit the shit out of it. I just don't like it anymore, only albums i like are the first two
This is exactly how I feel. Not a fan
Mike stated in an interview that his voice is breaking up. I guess hes just embracing the way it sounds now.
i heard in an interview he wanted the record to sound more like his vocals when they play live
No way son, the singing makes it perfect.
An amazing video by The Devil Wears Prada. Good job guys
that was one of the coolest music videos i have ever seen
This record kicks a lot of ass. Honestly, from intelligent and personal lyrics to the solid hypnotic rifs and drum lines that can make anyone appreciate the instrument, If this album won't turn you, there's probably not a whole lot that would.
wow, very creative and very eerie
Perfect video!
Comes to Rio de Janeiro - Brazil
Amazing song, I'm really digging this album!
yeahh..... metal pesadoo.........tdwp
These vocals are so sick. Im a huge fan of this album and song
Very dynamic song, well done boys another great song.
This video makes you trip so far!
Amazing. Get better with each album
AMAZING VIDEO. AMAZING SONG
damn...these guys have changed so much. I'm so impressed with their evolution.
I thought the man from the thumbnail was blind. Still one of my favorite song of TDWP.
Terbaik!
Warped Tour 2014 is gonna be awesome this year with TDWP on board. Can't wait for summer
