They made their debut in 1995 when Trevor McNevan, Joel Bruyere, and Steve Augustine started putting a praise & worship spin on the nu-metal sound of the time. After building a buzz around Ontario with numerous shows and a strong demo titled That's What People Do, Thousand Foot Krutch signed with Diamante and issued their debut LP, Set It Off, in 2000. The album featured a cover of EMF's "Unbelievable" on a set that veered toward the sounds of P.O.D. and Papa Roach. TFK signed with Tooth & Nail for September 2003's Phenomenon. They'd developed considerably in the two years since Set It Off, and the new album reflected a more focused rock sound, much like Chevelle or Finger Eleven. During this era, McNevan and Augustine also formed a pop-punk side band dubbed FM Static. Released in 2005, The Art of Breaking adopted an even heavier rock sound, doubling down on the introspection, angst, and emotion. Produced by Arnold Lanni (Our Lady Peace, Finger Eleven), it was the band's first album to break into the Billboard 200 (at number 67).

From there, the band would continue to rise in the charts. In 2007, they released their fifth full-length, The Flame in All of Us, which was produced by Ken Andrews (Beck, Chris Cornell, Pete Yorn). Arriving in 2009, the aggressive Welcome to the Masquerade, which would be the band's last release with Tooth & Nail, entered the Billboard Top 200 at number 35, peaking at number two on the Christian rock chart. It was their most successful album to date and would spawn the band's first live album, Live at the Masquerade. The group's next studio album, The End Is Where We Begin, was issued in 2012. It was their first album released entirely independently. Continuing the upward chart trajectory with each subsequent release, The End debuted at number 14 on the Billboard 200, and claimed the top spots on both the hard rock and Christian charts. In late 2013, the band released Made in Canada: The 1998-2010 Collection, which included two new tracks. Thousand Foot Krutch remained independent into 2014, relying on crowd-sourcing for the release of the energetic Oxygen: Inhale, the first part of a pair of hard rock chart-topping LPs. The heavier Exhale followed in 2016, marking TFK's third consecutive Christian number one.

Hey-o, here comes the danger up in this club
When we get started, man, we ain't gon' stop
We gon' turn it out 'til it gets too hot
Everybody sing, hey-o
Tell 'em turn it up 'til they can't no more
Let's get this thing shakin' like a disco ball
This is your last warning, a courtesy call

I am not afraid of the storm that comes my way
When it hits it shakes me to the core
And makes me stronger than before
It's not a question about trust
But will you stand with us?
Can you feel it?
Make it real and

I think it might wash away tonight
Awaken from this never ending fight
It takes more than meets the eye
This war we're fighting it's not just rotting

Hey-o, here comes the danger up in this club
When we get started, man, we ain't gon' stop
We gon' turn it out 'til it gets too hot
Everybody sing, hey-o
Tell 'em turn it up 'til they can't no more
Let's get this thing shakin' like a disco ball
This is your last warning, a courtesy call

There's a rumble in the floor
So get prepared for war
When it hits it'll knock you to the ground
When it shakes up everything around
But survival is a must
So will you stand with us?
Can you feel it?
Make it real and (make me feel it)

I think it might wash away tonight
Awaken from this never ending fight
It takes more than meets the eye
This war we're fighting it's not just rotting

Hey-o, here comes the danger up in this club
When we get started, man, we ain't gon' stop
We gon' turn it out 'til it gets too hot
Everybody sing, hey-o
Tell 'em turn it up 'til they can't no more
Let's get this thing shakin' like a disco ball
This is your last warning, a courtesy call

Hey-o, here comes the danger up in this club
When we get started, man, we ain't gon' stop
We gon' turn it out 'til it gets too hot
Everybody sing, hey-o
Tell 'em turn it up 'til they can't no more

Let's get this thing shakin' like a disco ball

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Thousand Foot Krutch's "Courtesy Call" is about warning people to get ready for a battle because it's about to go down, and they better be prepared to fight. The song starts with an upbeat tone and an invitation for everyone to come and join in the party. However, as the song progresses, the lyrics take a dark and serious turn, as the band prepares for an imminent danger that is about to arrive.

The lyrics seem to describe a dangerous situation that is about to happen, and the band tries to prepare themselves by heightening their senses and readying themselves for the fight. The "danger" in the club could either be literal or metaphorical, but the message is clear - the band is ready for it, and so should everyone else.

Moreover, the chorus line of "hey-o, here comes the danger" is catchy and brings a sense of urgency, warning that everyone should be prepared for the worst. Overall, the song seems like a call to arms, an invitation for everyone to come together and stand as one against whatever danger is lurking around the corner.

Line by Line Meaning

Hey-o, here comes the danger up in this club
There's danger here and things are going to get intense

When we get started and we ain't gonna stop
We're committed to seeing this through, no matter what

We gonna turn it out till it gets too hot
We're going to keep pushing until we can't anymore

Everybody sing, hey-O
Everyone is involved in this, we're all in it together

Tell'em turn it up till they can't no more
We need to turn up the intensity to the point where we can't handle it anymore

Let's get this thing shakin' like a disco ball
Let's make things really exciting and lively, like a disco ball

This is your last warning, a courtesy call
We're giving you a warning that things are going to get intense, but we're doing so in a respectful manner

I am not afraid of the storm that comes my way
I'm not scared of the challenges I'll face

When it hits it shakes me to the core
When challenges arise, they really affect me deeply

And makes me stronger than before
But despite that, I come out of them stronger than ever

It's not a question about trust
This isn't about whether or not we trust each other

But will you stand with us
This is about whether or not you'll stand with us through the challenges

Can you feel it, make it real?
Can you feel the intensity and make it a reality?

I think it might wash away tonight
I think everything we've built might be destroyed soon

Awaken from this never ending fight
But despite that, we can't give up the fight, it's never-ending

It takes more than meets the eye
This is more than what it seems

This war we're fighting it's not just rotting
The battle we're up against isn't just decay, but something that's very much alive

There's a rumble in the floor
Things are about to get really intense and this is just the beginning

So get prepared for war
We need to prepare ourselves for battle

When it hits it'll knock you to the ground
When things get intense, it'll knock you off your feet

When it shakes up everything around
When the intensity increases, it'll affect everything and everyone around us

But survival is a must
Despite everything, we must survive

So will you stand with us
Will you stand with us through everything?

Make me feel it
I need to feel the intensity and the passion behind our fight

This your last warning, a courtesy call
We're still respectful, but this is our final warning before everything gets really intense
