It fascinates me how one person can use their own personal experiences to write a song, and then have those lyrics mean something different to everyone.
Here is a little fact of the day my friends, ES Prometheus used to be an orchestra band. They were a band of 3. They however one day lost their brother to a horrible car accident. The band broke up, and they parted ways for awhile. The remaining brothers returned started a singing band with orchestra. They were no known as Les Friction. Their first single to be released was Torture in memory of their brother.
I just realized that alot of all Les Frictions songs ends up with them yellling at the end, think about it, Louder than words, World on fire, Who will save you now and whole lot of others start out slow and soft and they end up yellling at the end, not that I mind. I actually prefer it like that
the scary and sad thing is that this speaks to me in so many ways. I've been dealing with a lot of deaths in the family lately, but also the thankfully healthy babies that came too. one of my family members just died yesterday so listening to music and just letting myself feel helps just a little. I am half glad I wasn't there and half not. watching someone you love wither away for months on end in a hospital bed and die with you in the room is extremely hard and I just couldn't do it so soon after my grandfather nor even get enough money to even go to Germany to do so. listening to this group is relaxing and slightly freeing. In away it helps.
+Chelsea Dawn Oh I know, I know... It's really quite painful how little songs they've released. It sucks. Luckily, it's kind of fun to hear what other people have done with them. Maybe try looking up some remixes? Granted, a lot of them suck pretty hard, but every once in a while you find a really good one.
this song would be depression in human form like the part where it says "i told that lie" would be saying im fine and depression drags you down further and further
It's probably pointless for me to say this, but I think the words there are actually "towed that line," like bearing another person's burden. Music, like any other art form, is subject to a degree of interpretation, which isn't necessarily wrong. So I wanted to be sure the lyrics were accurate, so interpretations could be made on proper grounds. Feel free to disregard this correction if you want, though.
its fine but to me i have accute depression and when i hear the song to me it feels like depression is a self torture and i have to hold up the weight of the world plus the depression which only drags me further into darkness
This is some kind of epic and powerful song! At one moment, it's quiet and calm and then it is so.... Well, I think I can't describe and there is no word for how awesome this song sounds!
Wow. I lost a friend in middle school to suicide. I thought I was over it, but listening to this made me bawl my eyes out! Grief is a funny thing. Just when you think you're over it, it sneaks up on and consumes you...
Oh, I'm so sorry Caleb. I completely understand that feeling. That song for me is Meteor Shower by Owl City. You're right, grief is funny. I'm so sorry. :(
I respect your feels but it's your friends fault no matter how hard life can get suicide was never an answer , I believe in that because God gave you this body to take care of it , and killing it isn't how right , however if your friend is dead it only means he was weak to bear the world , no one is worthless it's all, as long as he have friends (like you) he should have give it a second thought , which mean he was just selfish
+Wesam Kamal regardless of your religious beliefs, i feel that the only appropriate response to some one sharing the passing of a loved one, no matter how they left this world, should be something along the lines of 'i'm sorry for your loss' 'that's so sad to hear' 'grief is difficult, i hope you find strength' you offer your condolences OR you just do not say anything. people realize who is 'at fault' and the ones effected by the death don't feel like 'suicide *is* an answer'. people do not need to hear you tell them things they already know. i feel like your first four words are completely contradicted with the rest of your paragraph. it's incredibly disrespectful to speak ill of the dead. "he was just selfish"
The emotional quality and intensity of their songs are so pure, and they achieve this without the usual gimmicks of other bands (excessive curse words, super loud base, unnecessary repetition, etc). I'm glad I found them today :)
Its Very Powerful in bringing up past hurtful memories that laid buried for over 30 years in my soul but...it is also reality at its best, prompting emotional release after a crisis.Music never gets old and dies. I am an aging fan of this band, still listening to it at 62. What's your excuse?
To live in your bubble is to live as a coward. The truth is you got to be the bigger monster. Or you will be taken advantage of. If you learn to be what you fear, what you hate, you may come to enjoy it. Embrace it. Beats the lies and delusions. People will hate you for having to show them the hard truth. They will also love you for it. Think you'll get through to somoene suicidal by coddling them? No. I went "It's for yourself. At least be honest about it." Fuel peoples hate. Get them angry. Or scared. Get them focused. On a goal. BE that target. I can handle it. If you're weak soft and pathetic then go curl under a rock. It's fine if you're weak. You can learn. But if you're a coward? I'll call that out. You might stand your ground. If you don't you won't forgive yourself. They never do.
I know this about they're brother that died . But it also fits the dv I went through. I live in a bubble now I sont trust people I dont make friends for two yrs I've been running state to state hiding from a evil narcissist that beat me for 7 hrs ,raped me and then burned me alive .I lived thru that and this song makes me cry so hard .he took away something I cant get back ,and I cant stop what cant be killed . When we met he was wonderful he turned into this evil inhuman monster in front of me .I live my life in fear and I run . He was put in jail and let out on bond in the state I'm in now . He wont show up for sentencing he will run so he can find me and kill me . I left him that's why he wants to kill me .
That's stupid. My friend hates thugs that are popular for some reason "I absolutely love this show but I'm not gunna watch the rest cause ts too popular" That's a quote from him. Oh my god he's dumb >_>

I actually knew that, ES Posthumus is one of my favourite bands. They're pretty awesome. ^_^
+JP Productions Don't forget about Paint, their vocalist.
Paint is a god and my one true love 0.0
No wonder theres such raw emotion in this song
This song is a work of art.
I just realized that alot of all Les Frictions songs ends up with them yellling at the end, think about it, Louder than words, World on fire, Who will save you now and whole lot of others start out slow and soft and they end up yellling at the end, not that I mind. I actually prefer it like that
its because it builds into a chrishendo and it is jaw droppingly impressive not many modern bands do this but les friction does which is why its good
Beautiful. One of the few bands to ever have reached out a strong sense of emotion to their listeners. Just Perfect.

Why did my brother introduce me to this band?! I was trying to listen to all of their songs and I came to the end way too soon.
THIS is torture.

This fits one of my characters so well...
It's kind of scary.
supersmilyface1 SSF1 Eyyyy, its awesome to find a song that fits an oc so perfectly that it fleshes them out even more

Thank you Les Friction to bring true beauty to this world!!! Amazing song!

It's okay, Mae. It's nice to have a good cry every now and again. I find it cathartic. Thanks though
Sorry to hear that.

This song needs to be more popular!
No kidding! The entire band needs to be more popular!
The emotional quality and intensity of their songs are so pure, and they achieve this without the usual gimmicks of other bands (excessive curse words, super loud base, unnecessary repetition, etc). I'm glad I found them today :)
Joel Gafford Was this your first time listening to LF?
This song is such a haunting depiction of abusive relationships in all their forms.
they killed that guitar.
That guitar is dead know. They held its funeral after the song was released. They played this song at the funeral.
Rest in peace, dead guitar
Quantum Mechanics playing it a second time would kill the second guitar so is it just an infinite cycle?
I like how the tense changes with the instrumental. It's very nice.
I love the song, and your lyrics really do it justice! :) They're in synch and everything.
Thank you so very much, if you're into Les Friction I have a few more vids you might like to check out! :)
one piece in 10 minutes / one piece em 10 minutos
I love this song 💚
This + "Joker" would be amazing!
Can't find anything else like this song dammit!
Try other Les Friction songs! That's the only suggestion I got tho.
Why am I just finding this now.
Très jolie voix j'adore !!! je vous connais grâce au titre "I remember" que j'adore et que je chante régulièrement ....😘 ❤️

Thank you!
I always cry listening to this
You are a Masterpiece

Just heard this band for the first time. Needless to say, but: I fucking approve.
Silence day? Worth it? KOko
I keep thinking of dark souls three when I hear this song
this song is intense omg
I think it’s “towed that line” not “told that line” but thanks for making this
It remainds me someone....U___U
awesome work !
Thanks!
love it x
good song
What's the meaning of the song? Is this "person" like fighting something inside of them or depression?
It's about someone getting abused by their lover
Another comment says it's about one of their brother's dying or something
I played this to my mean wife and she left me it's been 12 days and I can't tell if I'm happy or sad. GOD help me!
This makes me think of what happens to me
Hah...my sexually abusive ex in one song

What is this song about.????????????? Can somebody tell me ?
Abusive parents anyone?
Nathan
7 months later…are you okay?

This one is in agreement...
Same. Abusive mom
I know this about they're brother that died . But it also fits the dv I went through.

this group sounds like Muse
Everyone’s relating this song to abuse I’m here thinking bdsm 😏
Is this song about getting tortured in the medieval times??
No, I get the impression it's somebody living a very bad and unhappy life
I'm sorry.
i´m so happy
this song isn´t popular
Gerardo Valdez You don't like it?
I love it...
But i prefer it like something secret.
I would hate it if it ws more popular
Gerardo Valdez
While that's a romantic thought, I'd always prefer this to be famous rather than Justin Bieber, for instance.
Gerardo Valdez Think of it this way: If they were popular, the artists would get more money and make more music and overall probably be happier.
That's stupid. My friend hates thugs that are popular for some reason
"I absolutely love this show but I'm not gunna watch the rest cause ts too popular"
That's a quote from him. Oh my god he's dumb >_>
