Metal ruined by videos?

You be the judge. Here is the official video for Liquid by Mnemic, one of my favorite bands. Possibly also one of my favorite songs. For some reason this metal band has a lot of videos, and a lot of the same formula. Just look agressive and very _stereotypical metal_. I hear a completely different band when it is their music I listen closely to, yet I’m presented with such a… oh come on it’s such a standard. I love Mnemic, at least listen to that band 3 times a week. It’s just so testies without meaning, these videos. ^o^ Sometimes that’s fun too, but on some songs that just doesn’t cut it.

The eye on your back

I’m really stuck on this song by Mnemic. Here’s the lyrics.

I actually hate it when I’m stuck on a song like that, it’s going to take me days to get out of it. And here I was thinking I was getting out of my Mnemic craze. Apparently not.

:grin:

From a FF dvd

I got out the old FF dvd I still had. ^_^ Ah!~ The good old times.

It’s just about the only American band I really am crazy about. For two reasons: the pits and the topics covered in their music. That DVD I love to watch because of the crazy mosh pits. xd.

Just so you know, my 64 year old mom even likes this song.

They still have it! I choked up

How can you choke up by a metal song? I was listening to the last song on the new Fear Factory cd ‘Mechanize’ . It immediately grasped me because of it’s intensity. Plus, the lyrics and in-between sounds make me snicker a bit: “Final Exit“. A morbid sense of humour.

“Contemplate your last breath as you see the face of death”

The song has a rather depressing undertone so I thought at first, but then, I realized it’s also a celebration of life at the same time. It’s full of pride and stoicism. I really like that. I don’t care how old Burton must be by now, he’s still got one fine voice. It left me thinking, that’s how I want to go out. When I have to go, I want to go out like that!

:love:

my souuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuul~

I do hope they’ll do a world tour before their “Final Exit”, because I’ll be there as one of the few chicks in the room, making sure I’m not in the dangerous pit area to enjoy the ear violence. It’s sentiment to me, this band. I luffs!
