Trapped Under Ice Involved In Fan Altercation Overseas, Footage Available
Members of Trapped Under Ice have been accused of assaulting a fan at a show overseas this past weekend. Footage of the incident can be found below while the uploader of the video offered his take on the situation:
“what happened: US-”Hardcore”band TRAPPED UNDER ICE played a show and a kid who loved the band jumped over the singer (aka pile-on / stagedive) so he could sing-a-long, they both fell down the stage (absolutely no harm to the kid NOR the singer because of this), the singer then hit the kid two times in the face, the kid in defense not really knowing what the fuck was going on hit back, then chaos ensued, another member of the band left the stage and together with his singer started severly beating and stomping the kid resulting in a broken jaw that needed surgery.
back on stage the singer says “i’m not a fucking superhero, don’t jump on me, don’t you fucking hit me”
well this is BULLSHIT because if you are into Hardcore you know that singers get jumped on ALL THE TIME by enthusiastic fans. and the “Don’t fucking hit me” shit, well on the video you can clearly see that the singer hits the kid first!!!”

This venue looks like it has no security what-so-ever. I’ve seen better handling of security at a studio show with 60 people in attendance. People should not be on the stage unless invited (ETID did during their final song at House of Blues and it was amazing), it looks like people are just randomly climbing up here. I’m at the point now where I want to go to a show to enjoy the music, not look-out for idiots swinging their arms and legs around like they’re having a seizure. I’ll pay extra for close seats or a VIP area – I came to see the band, not deal with your stupid ass.
Now that’s a man.
Wham! “Thanks for coming to my show!”…”Let him stay… and bleed on everybody!”…”I’m not a super hero, I’m a first class fuckhead that likes beating on my fans”
@adamonfire: you sound as old as I am….I do the same thing as you do nowadays, seated areas, etc. But when I was younger I was doin’ the same thing that kid was, like many before me…it was fun, cathartic and character building.
You shouldn’t give a fuck if your fans bust into your bubble and touch you on stage, no need to go and smash his face in. Take the compliment and put the big-man-bullshit away and concentrate on the song.
Justice Tripp is a fucking pus filled hardcore hemorrhoid…
Security at shows is bogus.
Hey adamonfire, why don’t you curl up next to your Teddy Ruxpin and suck your thumb while your at it?? Fuckin’ sissy. Rub your mangina to your tears of lonliness to.
I agree with adam. I can’t stand that tough-guy hardcore bullshit. Bunch of no-talent tattooed children.
The hardcore kiddos at Times of Grace (Times of Grace, REALLY?) decided to start some fights near the end of the band’s set. Jesse wasn’t happy about it in the slightest and I sure as hell was embarrassed for everyone who attended that the band had to witness that shit.
I d0n’T uNdErStAnD tHe ReFeReNcE aNd I w0n’T b0tHeR l00KiNg It Up. If I were to get in there with the kids I see at shows they would be absolutely destroyed, I find myself spending more time picking people up in pits than getting to enjoy the music. Put the music on and bop around in your house, not knocking over everybody’s drinks while catching a band you just heard of three weeks ago.
Yea, this is just dumb. Fans are going to go wild at shows. People will inevitably get hit. When it happens, you don’t freak out and attack the person. You either take it and go on with your night or move away. Obviously, if someone intentionally hits you, that’s a different story. But that does not appear to be the case here. Just a dumb move on the singer’s part.
A) the “mosh” area looks like a high school dance for handicap kids B) this band fucking sucks and it was the worst part of the etid xmas shows C) everytime i die always has people going on the stage to stage dive and nothing like this happens D) the asshole audience claps for this bitch E) this is probably a stright edge band like all the hard core fags that act like not doing drugs is better then being a decent human being that olny fights when there is a reason and treat people with respect this is fucking im hard core ima throw punchs at anyone because im a hard ass sonnabitch Fags ps if u wanna crowd surf go ahid if ur in the front rows people should watch out for others and let um know if they see someone coming
“Put the music on and bop around in your house…”
Lol
The vid doesn’t show much. Hardcore tough guy shit is dumb but I can’t really tell what happned here.
But: Crowd surfing is lame. No one wants to have to watch out for your sweaty, no shirt, too big to be doing this ass floppin around all over everyone.
What a douche this guy is. Where’s Phil Anselmo when you need him? He would’ve gotten right up on that stage and crushed that singer’s face. Your band blows dude. It’s time to pick up carpentry for a living, ya dork.
Reminds me of when Danzig was talking shit and got knocked out.
@ adamonfire – It’s funny the only thing you can make fun of is my screen name when in fact your name is derived from a mediocre AT BEST post-hardcore band. And by the way, moshing is not in any way shape or form dumb. Maybe because you are to much a pussy to understand that the music creates the energy in which also creates the “bump” or expression of appreciation towards the band. People took it to far with ninjaxcore dancing which I believe had originated from East Rutherford, NJ (Sorry) which caught on due to DVDs and whatnot from bands who appreciated the violence (Think Shattered Realm, Madball, Terror, etc.) Even still, in the days of glory, this appreciation always attracted some sort of brotherhood in which everyone in the “Pit” looked out for eachother and in no way shape or form were out to hurt eachother. But with the uprising of the new generation, everyone is about pretty much murdering the next person and has no dignity or pride within the music but to look cool and punish whoever is there which should have never came about. I feel bad for these new generations as nothing is appreciated.
Also, the bands themselves should be the ones to blame since they promote the violence. Don’t say, “I WANT TO SEE YOU RIP THE PERSONS HEAD OFF NEXT TO YOU BERRRR!!!” and not expect a person to follow the lead. Moshing has a history. Right now, we are in a time where violence is promoted big time. Us older generation folk, and to be real adamonfire, I understand where you are coming from where you just want to enjoy the show cause these kids have absolutely no care in the world to get hurt cause their parents will probably pick up the bills, need to sit it out from the sidelines. But, you can’t blame it on mosh. To many variables play a role on why it is like it is. Degenerates are being produces in droves now, and they are plagueing the scene. But with the violence, the bands are also promoting it. In which this band should have never punched the fan for getting too rowdy. There is no heart in the new hardcore scene only contradiction which is shown full force in this video. It’s sad.

Oh cool, haven’t heard that one on the board. Thanks for being original. “Creates the “bump” or expression of appreciation towards the band”? What the fuck are you talking about? You must be some kind of Black Eyed Peas fan or some kind of raver. Humor me, defend your username.
PeAcE MiNuS 0nE (side-note: isn’t it redundant to spell the word “one” using the character “0″?), you may have a worthwhile perspective on this topic. However, you cannot string to coherent sentences together whatsoever. Try finishing one thought at a time before moving on to the next sentence. I mean, sweeping generalizations and blind nostalgia can be funny at times, but not the way you’re just not making sense.
At about 12 seconds in it looks like the audience in the “circle pit” are disco dancing in a double dragon video game.
haha, I’ve been to this venue once. i went to see terror, born from pain and stick to your guns. terror was fucking brutal, stage dive after stage dive. i decided to watch from a safe distance and survived.
that’s also where i saw trapped under ice for the first time and hopefully the last time. the singer’s voice is crap and the music is barely average. and i don’t care what happened in the video and i’m not going to judge, because i couldn’t see ANYTHING in this clip.
Trapped Under Ice rule. if this computer was not lame I’d watch the punch heard round the scene.
The camera pans to a crowd shot so you really don’t even see the initial altercation.
“Maybe because you are to much a pussy to understand that the music creates the energy in which also creates the “bump” or expression of appreciation towards the band. ” – sounds like it could be a quote from the upcoming show “Jersey Shore XxHaRdCoRexX”. you tell em pAuLy PeAcE.
singers already issued an apology
I’m almost 30 and I still go off at shows. I can’t even imagine seeing a band like Converge or Dillinger and just standing around. If you don’t want to get hit, stand in the back. Don’t expect to stand up front and not get pounced on.
As for hitting fans, has anyone seen the video of the dude who steals the mic from John from Himsa and then gets his teeth knocked down his throat? It’s awesome.
why the fuck would anyone stand around for converge?
fucking riot worthy.
@NdR23 – Hahahah fuck me you’re right! A load of sweaty 16 bit-ters!
I’m done with the pit, I put a good 12-13 years in, on the rail/edge of the stage for every show. I’m all about comfort and watching the show now. Nothing against the people who do it, good for you, not my thing anymore. The line, lack of drinks/bathroom stalls to do my designer drugs. Just kidding, maybe
My last show going nuts was a GlassJAw show in 2006, partly because I hadn’t seen them in so long and with GJ you never knew if you’d see them again. Good to see they’re going strong again.
I go nuts for Parkway (usually, didn’t this past time as we had an amazing sight line standing above where the pit was) and Killswitch…… other than that, I’d love to just stand on the side of the stage and enjoy.
I’m not really a fan of Parkway Drive. Don’t really have anything against them or anything, just not really into them. But I’ll give them one thing, they can make a pit explode. I saw them on the Killswitch/Dillinger/ETID tour and they made people lose it. They had the crowd do the wall of death and fucked up abunch of drunk Killswitch fans. It was awesome.

Straight Edge: Because their too stoned to fight back.
