At The Drive-In - Arc Arsenal Lyrics
I must have read a thousand faces
I must have robbed them of their cause
sickened thirst, sickened thirst
keeps it together
soft white glow in the cranium
beware! [x3]
I must have read a thousand faces
and all these voices won't give up
sickened thirst, sickened thirst
glues it together
a catatonic leisure at 1000 miles per hour
beware! [x3]
so who's in charge here
barking out loud so clear
because I'd really like to meet him
so who's in charge here
in the review of this mirror
because I'd really like to meet him
so who's in charge here
barking out loud so clear
because I'd really like to meet him
uproar east, strike west
have you ever tasted skin?
sink your, sink your teeth in it
have you ever tasted skin?
sink your teeth into...
have you ever?
beware! [x6]

At The Drive-In Arc Arsenal Comments
This is the best intro to any bmx or skate video. And there has been. The 2001 Trend bmx video from Austin Texas. Epic video
Best build up ever
Cause I really like tomato
I’m pretty sure this is about Dahmer
Still so fucking great
BEwAREEEEEE
Have you?
Enyone 2019 ?
saw these guys in arkansas in a hole in the wall place...had no idea who was playing...went anyways....this was the only band i rocked out to that night. I heard they did some great things over the years. Well deserved.
Who's in charge in here I'd really like to meet him!!!!
pol ql te amo gracias por mostrarme esta banda
So high school 1995 for me 🖤🖤🖤🖤
Love how this song ends with the singer just screaming his lungs out without any screaming technique, just screaming like a madman : )
Any guitar pros here who know how to get that shrill kind of haunted type riff sound @ 0:44 ?
Post hardcore at its finest.
I remember I bought this album because of one armed scissor then realised this song was on book of shadows
il pezzo più bello di sempre !!!
Goosebumps.
Reminds me of La Dispute
Still a classic
Light years ahead of its time, so unique & overwhelmingly powerful
One of the most ultra-intense listening experiences.
So whos is charge in here ??!!
Anyone who thinks this is a stupid song..........Is Gay
punk as fuck
The screaming at the end of this song makes my fucking nipples hard, every time.
greatest band for years and years mar volta to at the drive in love it still roxs now and still rock in 2017 and seen them support royal blood congrts great
Que porta é essa?
When the vocals kick in I imagine Cedrick standing on the wings of a jet plane singing this because thats how fast and in your face it comes at you.
Have you ever tasted skin?
Awesome band so underrated. Great to watch their recent reading festival performance and great they've made a new album
1:33 is so rad. The energy and momentum and power of that riff combined with the drums lol it's so damn aggressive. I feel like it's the sound of getting beat up by a ninja or something.
FUCK.... just blew out the windows. here come the police
This is a first round, first punch knock out!
"Catatonic leisure at 1000 miles per hour"
What an absolutely awesome song.
I'm 60 and can't get enough of this stuff!
Reservoir Dogs
BECAUSE I REALLY LIKE TOMATO!
not feeling this at all, maybe I am too young to appreciate this (26)
Rob it's not for everyone. See ya'
#wengerout
Greatest album-opening track ever?
Let me answer you, that's call: Son et Lumiere.
At the drive - in good !!! <3
Try the great southern trankill by pantera
OMFGAAAAAAAWD!!
AND ALL THESE VOICES WONT GIVE UP!!!!
2.55 minutes of catharsis.
Why aren't this guys huge rn, this was a kickass album
Lieutenant Prick this album came out almost 17 years ago, that's probably why. plus they disbanded. give Mars Volta a listen
James Rick They are back together since 2016.
James Rick They got back together and released an album this year.
(Continued) All of those bands that I mentioned are pioneers of post-hardcore, and I find it so strange how a bunch of important post-hardcore artists broke up after they released classic albums.
Maybe it's just me, but I've noticed that a lot of post-hardcore bands tend to be short lived, especially when they've made legendary albums that defined the genre. At the Drive-In broke up after they released Relationship of Command, Unwound broke up after Leaves Turn Inside You came out, and Fugazi went on "indefinite hiatus" after The Argument. Refused also broke up after they released The Shape of Punk to Come, and Big Black was over after the release of Songs About Fucking.
Don't forget "Spiderland".
georgeharrison70 even nirvana was considered post hardcore at one time before the grunge label and they only put out 3 albums
ATDI didnt exactly break up though. Omar, Cedric, and Ward went on to create The Mars Volta which they were in until 2012 or 13 and after the current last TMV album they revived ATDI
It's Ok 💛 Merry Christmass.
like a mix between the mars volta, rage against the machine and black flag. that is probably one of the greatest imaginable musical mixes ive heard off!!!
Andrew Miroslawski But before them.
>Mixture of bands from the genre post-hardcore is derived from and their other band
How surprising
I remember listening to the intro and having absolutely no idea what the hell to expect, I had listened to In/Casino/Out before this but this was just something else
I haven't listened to this album in so long... Still good
Makes me think of Pailhead.
Is the intro lick a reference to some other song? I've definitely heard it in something else
Cicatriz ESP
oh my god for over a decade ive been blasting these songs...i never connected THIS to CICATRIZ. both are two of my all time favorites...you Mr. MagicManSam are a Cat among Pidgeons
TheMagicManSam seriously? I didn't even know.
I'm not usually a fan of this kind of music but something about the lyrics just strikes true.
Wow it's been really long o.o
uma banda fantástica,pena que acabou!
Douglas Fabiani não acabou não eles lançaram um disco ano passado
CAN'T PLAY THIS LOUD ENOUGH
SO WHO'S IN CHARGE HERE?
Alejandro Fonseca Millan IN THE REAR VIEW OF THIS MIRROR
BEWARE, BEWWAAAARREE!!!!!
I think the same.
I KNOW hahaha dude im trying to make the volume louder and its already to the max wtf
I can't decide if I like ATDI or The Mars Volta more. Both very unique, which is ironic because of the lineup.
another vote for atdi. more has more heart imo. even if the mars Volta may be more impressive technically
Gengarred tmv for sure
It depends on what I'm in the mood to listen to. I love both bands equally for different reasons.
Used to love TMV more, now it's the opposite. I find ATDI had more passion, raw energy and is more "straight to the point".
that intro never fails. Cedric put his ass into this one
The part at 1:34 sounds like Outlaw Torn by Metallica.
Love all at the drive in stuff, but this is one of my favorites!
I remember listening to this on my discman, walking down the street, screaming the lyrics and people staring...
METALHEAD DARCY this.
Remember when 'emo' meant something non-negative?
I'm well aware, I like emo, I hate people labeling music "emo" because they think they can relate it to their shitty teenage angst movement. Nowadays everything that has someone yelling over guitar is "alternative" or "emo". Pisses me off man.
OddGonzo Nigga this is post-hardcore, not emo
@Letz ...No, fuck that. Emo was similar to punk. ATDI fans were not "emos" like you see today. You clearly don't know shit about music history or genres, stop spreading misinformation. You aren't aware of shit, and you're pissed off about something that isn't even true.
ATDI is post/hardcore!!
"Have you heard of the band 'At The Drive In'?"
"There's a band that performs at the drive in?"
lol such a great band no one knows about
this song pretty accuratly describes how i feel about all the idiots in youtube comment sections.
because i'd really like to meet him.
CAUSE I REALLY LIKE TOMATOES!!!!!!!
unless you got physical document wher3 the band members state it's meaning
then your futile rebuttal remains unnoticed
+Nick Marsico Wrong comment, mate
I heard that lyric as what it was the first time I heard it, tf you doing mate
The ultimate concert would be at the drive in-crime mob & kittie
+Richard Nygaard no it wouldn't be.
+Jersey Randalls
How you doing buudie learned all in a heart beat.
Garbage
this song describes a psychopathic mind so accurately
+Nick Marsico no it doesn't.
you wouldn't know
XD just can't get over you kids listening to this in 2016
Dahmer!
This would be sick for a wrestler to use as his music
Gacy would have. haha lok you people listening to this in 2016
+CaptainHowdy760 The fucking Chainsaw !!
los queremos ver juntos de nuevo.....
Sounds like Carl from Aqua Teen Hunger Force is the lead singer
I must say that rise against have a big influence of this band....
+Jason S they are.
+Jason S or they are simply idiots...
+YbIj And u are the best of us ;)
+Redemerd Never heard "Turn your tongue seven times in your mouth before speaking" ? Is the same for writing something...
How could you write that rise against have influenced an older band than them ??? This album is older than the first album of Rise Against... Time connexion problems or have you encounter the Dr Samuel Beckett ?
+YbIj maybe you have to come back to the school and learn to read again friend.... i know that this band is too much older than rise agains and that is what i say in my first comment!
How can people calls Attack Attack and same shit a post-hardcore after this??!!
We're living in an age where Paris Hilton is considered a DJ, and Justin Bieber is considered a rapper.
+sickphNIX I've never heard either of them referred to as either of those things.
post hardcore, screamo and emo are the most mislabled genres ever
This song sends me to a special emotive place beyond daily consciousness. Intense overwhelming masterpiece
Masterpiece is the right word. I have never heard anything like this..
welcome
THIS ALBUM WAS A HUGE CHANGE IN INDIE ROCK, WAS THIS 2003 ? WHEN THIS CAME OUT ?
OH MY GOD YEAH IT DIDN'T COME OUT IN 2003!!!! IT CAME OUT IN 2000, YEAH YOU HEARD IT.
That intro.
+Fernando Fernandez I still remember hearing this when it first came out. No idea what to expect and that intro.
just the whole song really
Whoa, this song just gave me hardcore déjà vu. I had this album when I was like 14 before I even knew what post-hardcore was. Fast forward 8 years later, my interest in progressive music is rapidly expanding and here I am back where it all started, but seeing it from a completely different perspective.
@Pr0fess0rSasquatch same thing with me and The Fall of Troy
Exactly
same goes to me when I listened back to The Mars Volta
imagine hearing this when you were like 7 and finding it again
I feel this way hard man. It’s way better now
LYRICS:
I must have read a thousand faces
I must have robbed them of their cause
sickened thirst, sickened thirst
keeps it together
soft white glow in the cranium
a bulls eye made sedated
beware! [x3]
I must have read a thousand faces
and all these voices won't give up
sickened thirst, sickened thirst
glues it together
a catatonic leisure at 1000 miles per hour
beware! [x3]
so who's in charge here
barking out loud so clear
because I'd really like to meet him
so who's in charge here
in the review of this mirror
because I'd really like to meet him
so who's in charge here
barking out loud so clear
because I'd really like to meet him
uproar east, strike west
have you ever tasted skin?
sink your, sink your teeth in it
have you ever tasted skin?
sink your teeth into...
have you ever?
beware! [x6]
robitussin
I always shit my dick to this song.
Zachary Wellington dude same
Best on the entire album. Thus meaning the greatest post-hardcore/rock song of all time
+ChuckleNuts Lol. I like that.... I Like that a lot.
I dunno ...choosing between this and one armed scissor is like having to decide which of your children you like more
I like ATDA a lot, but I can think of a couple dozen The Fall of Troy songs that are better.
no way.... Cosmonaut is the boss of that album...
@oldnavyrum i agree. Personally, OAS is my favorite, but this is a CLOSE second.
I Must have read a thousand faces
I Must have robbed them of their cause
Sickened thirst, sickened thirst
Keeps it together
Soft white glow in the cranium
A bulls eye made sedated
Beware! 3 times
Must have read a thousand faces
And all these voices won't give up
Sickened thirst, sickened thirst
Glues it together
A catatonic leisure
At 1000 miles per hour
Beware! 3 times
So who's in charge here
Barking out loud so clear
Because I'd really like to meet him
So who's in charge here
In the rear-view of this mirror
Because I'd really like to meet him
So who's in charge here
Barking out loud so clear
Because I'd really like to meet him
Uproar east, strike west
Have you ever tasted skin?
Sink your, sink your teeth in it!
Have you ever tasted skin?
Sink your teeth into...
Have you ever?
Beware! 6 times
Seriously, though. This tune is just TOO MUCH. Makes me feel like I'm going insane and it's always a great song to listen to when you need to blow off steam, when I just don't want to care about life or anything else for a few minutes. Bliss.
+Nostalgic_Chaos best way to start an album of this calibre . A straight punch to the face
+bullshtt skipper Indeed.
Un reencuentro seria buenisimo!
I first heard this song on "Blair Witch Project 2" shitty movie but awesome music
shitty music and shitty movie. What rock did you just crawl out from under?
I said shitty movie good music so settle down
Dude, youtube commenters are the worst. Blair Witch 2 sucked by any stretch of the imagination, and this is indeed a great song. Lets not even read the comment, then spew hate, yeah!
pedazo de disco y tema
inspiration for m shinoda and the LP's next album...
I hadn't listened to ATDI in so long, and thought about it today. Thanks for uploading.
GTFO with this rise against trash
Havent heard this in a few years and the other day I remembered ATDI .. man this sounds so awesome .. too bad there arent too many original artist like these guys around
original? How many chromosomes do you have? I'm saying three.
@Defenseman61913 I love how unsuccessful you were at trying to rile people up. Especially at how many people you tried to comment at . Doesn't matter, someone who tries this hard must be a fan right?
This awesome song is chilling as fuck in context of The Book of Shadows...
Rise Against wishes it was ATDI.
The only word to describe this song is intense.
His voice sounds like the dude from Rise Against in this song.
tried it. thanks for the tip. Did not spark to me yet. But who knows :p sometimes the best stuff hits me late.
Hmm... Rise Against are my all time favorite band... Truly I do not see any similarity in vocals, except for the fact they are both amazing singers.
