And now! The blackest present for the most brutal of all bass players…… *NOOOTHING!!!*

uh, coach mcguirk? your voice sounds different

Fuck murder face he pretend plays sometimes !

This is so much better than the album version

Toki is my favorite. Always has been

God i love metal

always funny that they slipped my little pony in there

This shit is 10y+ old 😭 ams feelings old

“What are you doing?! Stop! Stop playing! What are you doing? That’s not the drum pattern. I didn’t say to make it your own, A$$hole. So why don’t you all shut the f&@k up and listen to me. And let’s play some-“

2:46

Keep doing what you're doing I love it

Skwisgaar is a God but Toki is a prodigy child.

Thanks for posting such a awesome and loud version of this epic guitar battle. 🤘🏼

The best version of the song. I always loved the rolling drums as Brendon didn't know drum programming back when he made this tune - it has double pedalling with another kick drum on top. When Gene Hoglan did the tune I was actually dissapointed by the removal of this aspect of the tune.

I've been in these bands. The dynamics are simply true. That's what makes it so funny

I vividly recall this track and was praying for it to be on the album. Absolutely fantastic.

This is fantastic

mike patton

sorry for being your 421st sub. i broke the number :'<

I LOVE Brendon's Skwisgaar voice in this well, I love Brendon's everyone voice always but still Skwisgaar is extra hammy in this

The audio has been edited, sounds like your editor turned down Swisgar's part, Toki was much louder... and the last part is cutoff too abruptly :(

Practice vs talent...

2:40 That Toki bit gets me EVERY time. Sweet Heet!

😎

I still can not comprehend why would adult swim cancel this show. Its like they hate money or something

AIN’T NOBODIES AS GOODS AS ME

Hell ya youll make a killing covering the songs that never made the albums

Actually really good . That chords is good !

This is the real original, years looking for this. Thanks

If the rest of the show was as good as Doomstar Requiem it'd be one of my all time favorites.

I love how hard that inital guitar note sounds.

Fan interpretation time:- * In the previous song "Abigails Lullaby"; Abigail suggests to Toki Wartooth to remember his fondest, greatest moment he ever had while in the single most appalling, horrific conditions imaginable through a genuinely sweet-hearted number * What is truly striking though (IMPO) is that with other folks who have their fondest memories in a lot of other fiction; they tend to be the centre of attention & make themselves out to be the greatest person in the presence of all... But oddly enough; Toki doesn't seem to do that, this fondest memory of his seems to be told in a pretty honest way. * It's not known to the fullest extent if the other bandmates truly informed Toki of the actual events but he seems to honestly imagine the scenes as follows:- 1. The Lowdown- this sets up the situation with the band after the firing of Magnus Hammersmith & Pickles knowing they need a Rhythm Guitarist to begin creating an album to rock the world. 2. However; Swisghaar arrogantly boasts how because he's such a talent that Dethklok should be a 4 man act which he can cover all aspects of Guitar! Pickles shows Swisghaar the immense number of auditioners who have answered the call to become Dethkloks Rhythm Guitarist (This tells us that though Dethklok isn't famous yet, they've certainly earned a revered & respected reputation in the underground of Metal) so Pickles offers Swisghaar a challenge- "Defeat ALL of the auditioners & he can have his wish" 3. & Swisghaar proceeds TO. DO. JUST. THAT!!! (1172 Auditioners) thus declaring himself 'A wizard & sorcerer' of the guitar! (Perhaps he should include Warlock as well? Swisghaar rolling a Natural 20 on the challenge) however Nathan Explosion notices the door knocking & demands the entrant to arrive & its Toki. * He's a little younger minus facial hair & he's meek, polite & rather nervous (however notice his shadow when he's introduced is in the shape of a hawk indicating a potentially proud, valiant spirit) the rest of the band are rather skeptical with Pickles exhibiting a little curiosity, Nathan very skeptical & William Murderface?.... Well he's being William Murderface! *Swisghaar decides to allow this newcomer to challenge him but indicate in a somewhat Tongue-in-cheek way it's going to be a pity to destroy Toki as he did with the others. The Duel! * Swisghaar begins & unsurprisingly Toki is deterred (no blaming him) however unlike the auditioners, he draws out his guitar & then proceeds to MATCH Swisghaar! Much to the "Surprise" of the other bandmates, Pickles showing the most surprise! * The battle itself begins with Swisghaar shape-shifting into a Centaur-horse human hybrids who are known to be exceptionally lecherous creatures & Toki shapeshifts into a male version of a Harpy- bird/women said to be a manifestation of Zeus' wrath! & both continue the duel in the clouds with lightning firing from their guitars. The scene hilariously switches to the pair dressed in Baroque attire akin to Mozart & Beethoven & with straight faces & expert use of their pinky fingers continue to duel (properly starting to enjoy themselves) The climax- Both Swisghaar & Toki back in their trademark attire ascend into the clouds with their respected animals spirits behind them (Swisghaar-Horse & Toki-Hawk) & Toki is in the zone..... However, the storm clouds gathering may indicate that Toki is starting to realise the monumental mountain he's having to climb being Swisghaar is becoming all too apparent! & Sadly; the immense tension causes Toki to fumble & he falls to his knees.... Defeated! However, Toki is still intact as the other auditioners got obliterated rather unceremoniously! The bandmates express their disappointment with Pickles showing the most sympathy (as much as he will allow) Nathan being rather blunt in his honesty with William just telling him "politely" to GTFO here! Conclusion:- With Toki leaving dejected & hopes dashed; Swisghaar of all folks waits outside & offers him a revelation (which is surprisingly humble for such a narcissist) * Swisghaar admits that until Toki came around:- NOBODY was able to keep up with him, proved a good challenge & actually got him to do something he hasn't done in a long time...... TRY! & as a way to say "Thank you" he allows Toki Wartooth to join Dethklok as their Rhythm Guitarist much to Toki's delight!

Skwisgar has the voice of a god dude!

this is a masterpiece

I wonder if the whole kicking Magnus out of the band thing was kind of an allusion to Dave Mustaine being kicked out of Metallica

Anybody else need a smoke?

How is it that Brendan Small singing in Pickles’ voice sounds like a range between James Hetfield from Metallica and Chad Creuger from Nickleback?

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Hundreds of auditioners showed up but didn't last more than a few seconds Then Toki shows up and not only does he last vastly longer than everyone else combined: He _forces motherfucking Skwisgaar_ to give it his A-game

Fantastic job man! Thank you for uploading this! \m/

Amazing 🤙🤙🤙

The rhythm guitar player is always under appreciated. They’re main job is to make the lead guitarist sound good, which requires to have as solid time as the drummer , and also never over-playing, which both take a lot of discipline and control.

0:37 is when I knew that this was the best musical I've ever experienced.

Stops copies me!

Does anyone else think that Skwisgaar's first vocal verse sounds like a guitar solo? Like you could transcribe it to an axe and it would sound and play the exact same? Friggin' awesome, man.

I never thought I'd like Toki and Swisgar as much as I do thanks to this movie.

Hold them all. Together well I make my way this will be an orgy of deth throats will meet my blade

I love Magnus guitar riffs holy shit it sounds good

What’s really crazy about this is that Toki was able to keep up with skwisgaar. Which means Toki is the second worlds fastest guitar player
