HOW THE HELL, HAVE I NOT DONE THIS LIST BEFORE?!
You know I love FFDP right? Damn, I swear I did this list BUT HEY if I cannot find it then, REDO IT!
This will be tough, but I am determined to get this list done! FFDP done some great covers but for the sake of this list, I will be excluding them.
10: Lift Me Up (Ft Rob Halford)
This was a titan of a track when it was released, and it still god-damn is! Ivan & Rob deliver a sick as fuck collab for us with this one. You can think of this one as being in need of being lifted from depths of addiction or maybe from just being down from being that person who always helps others and never gets the same back.
9: Remember Everything
To me this is hands down one of the most emotional and powerful songs I have ever heard and FFDP it hits home hard to me and always makes me cry every time I listen to it.
8: Burn MF
The angst of this song I feel it so much, and occasionally I cannot help but to listen and yell along waving my middle finger about going "BURN MF! BURN MF! BURN!" haha. When you hear this live it is on another level thanks to the energy and vocals from thousands of people around you also singing that chorus.
7: A Little Bit Off
You ever woke up and not felt right? This song captures that perfectly and resonates with me strongly.
6: Never Enough
I guess this one can be summed up as being an outcast and everything you do to matter or fit in is never enough, well that's how I feel, and it was among the block of first songs I heard from FFDP and I think my good friend James Evans introduced me to them.
5: Wrong Side Of Heaven
The video is all about war and it's effects pretty much and that's what this song is also and just dealing with it. Powerful, emotional and beautiful song, one of their best!
4: Jekyll & Hyde
On some level I believe we can relate to this catchy killer track. Funny story with this one basically the band trolled their label and shot the video themselves, and it is quite a fun and funny video just like the next entry to the list. The band has said in interviews that this one was made from Ivan's early morning calls and voicemails he sent to the band regarding lyrics, and they pieced it all together to form this.
3: Under & Over It
This is just straight up brash FFDP firing back at the haters and their label saying we are who we are, and we ain't going to change. I love this one so much!
2: Hard To See
One of the first songs I heard from FFDP was this one, and it was incredible and still is. "It's about seemingly irresolvable differences. It's valid in just about any setting: politics, religion, relationships… Everything is 'only an opinion' based on limited information, yet people sometimes get attached to their point of views to the extreme…in fact, to the point they would launch wars over them." - Zoltan Bathory
1: The Bleeding
I have got to say that this song is fucking amazing and intense as hell especially live. My friend Lewis G and his band Hammerstrike played this every time and dedicated it to someone every time I have seen them play, and it was always epic.
Yo! Thanks for reading and checking out my blog, follow for more!
