Death "Empty Words" Live in L.A. ◄ 11/13 ► [HD] ☺

----------------------LYRICS AND INFO----------------------------
** Lyrics **
Ashes and promises share a bond
Through the winds of change
Words are blown away
When visions that should be
Are tattooed in your mind
The power to let go
Is sometimes hard to find
The answer cannot be found
In the writing of others
Or the words of a trained mind
In a precious world of memories
We find ourselves confined
Claws so razor sharp
Ripping at the spirit
[Chorus:]
Promises a potential to hurt
Is anything real?
When forever is to be until
Deep inside, in the world of empty words...
No escaping from those haunting
empty words...
[Solo: Schuldiner]
Do you ever feel it?
A craving that is so strong
To by thought rewind in order to find
Expectations that shined through the doubt
That soon would turn into the price
Of what a word will be worth
When tomorrow comes
To be and we are left
Standing on our own-
And seeing what is real...
The answer cannot be found
In the writing of others
Or the words of a trained mind
In a precious world of memories
We find ourselves confined
Claws so razor sharp
Ripping at the spirit
[Repeat chorus]

Fucking nuts, right?!?!

[@jekku9468]

check out Alexi Laiho, he screams and shreds at the same time

[@ThatHeadbandGuy]

This band deserved so much more. I have no doubt they would have been bigger if Chuck had not passed and they survived long enough to see the resurgence of heavy metal.

[@Crossbonesization]

That Headband Guy like you. You have made such a good videos, like the tribute to Death and the tone experiments and more. You deserve more appreciation.

[@Goabnb94]

If Chuck hadn't passed away, likely Death would've been put on hold for Control Denied, which is where Chuck wanted to head musically. It likely would've gotten "softer" but still just as musically proficient. But like most of the old giants of metal, would've returned to Death in the past 5 or so years, and put out a monster of a return to form album. Now that album, would've been a sight to behold. Too bad we'll have to wait for heaven (or hell as the case may be) to hear that album.

[@laurenlarson94]

@@Goabnb94 Chuck is definitely in heaven 😭

[@gaelbgalbar9307]

Even guys as Tool can't create such a riff. This guy was the absolute metal master. Damn it, the Hendrix of the metal, gone too early.

[@Dseraph1808]

While I agree Chuck was a fucking genius to say that Tool can't create riffs like these is a lie, they have come up with much more complex stuff. Then again complex doesn't always mean better

[@gaelbgalbar9307]

@@Dseraph1808 Clear you can do complex bullshit ahaha. I like Tool, n I recognize my comparison wasn't the best I did, cos this is not the same music.

[@robblack]

Some outstanding drumming, Death always had some of the most bad ass drummers of all time. Thanks for sharing!

[@Boyde712]

Gene drums for Testament now. Check out the new album, it's badass.

[@MichaelHolmgaard]

Gene Hoglan is a fantastic drummer, but Richard Christy is out of this world! One of the best drummers ever to play on an album 🙌

[@chromaxd26]

Michael Holmgaard imo sean > gene > richard

[@nickfanzo]

Isn’t he on Howard stern now?

[@MichaelHolmgaard]

@@nickfanzo Yes he is. And apparently that was always his big dream. I miss his drumming though 😅

[@crod67435]

​@@chromaxd26Sean reinert was the better of the three cause his style jazz fusion set him apart and hoglan would ask him how to do that and Christie is badass but nowhere near Sean's level of drumming. Cynics focus is a perfect example of Sean's ability to drum

[@randyej2581]

It's a trip how fast Chuck moves his left hand in the ending solo... @ 6:14

[@eveofcontempt]

like a spider

[@Pootrifaction]

RIP Chuck - I was at this show. We ripped up the fucking rows of seats from the ground leaving sharp metal poles sticking out of the ground that were embedded in the concrete - probably the most dangerous pit because if you fall, you could easily get impaled. The grandfathers of Death Metal - fuck cancer. This wasn't Gene on drums btw, this was Richard Christie.

[@rsn9394]

Whoever was the drummer for Chuck during this period is so bloody good. He's on fire!!!!

[@arvindshastry1178]

Richard Cristy was the drummer in this video Death always had great drummers

[@creedlinkinfan]

that opening groove simply got me..

[@raphaelmacedo4467]

People say that Chuck was REALLY perfectionist... Maybe thats why Death had a lot of lineups hahahahh

[@bobthemob1234]

i’m so happy you pointed this out. i would have never noticed. rlly shows chucks character perfectly how everyone described it. i fucking love it

[@fernandom5150]

@@raphaelmacedo4467 that’s exactly why they had a lot of changes. If someone was slacking chuck wanted no business with them. Drugs and rock was a thing but Chuck treated his career as a true profession.

[@penttikoivuniemi2146]

The fucked power chord is actually Chuck's, it's coming from the left channel. He's cringing at his own mistake.

[@Tritanium1503]

Chuck was soooooooo good on guitar. It's just amazing

[@the666misfit666]

Chuck schuldiner is my fuckin heroe! His guitar style n lyrics r soo fuckin amazing, he saw life in his own way n was just a larger than life guitarest, we miss u chuck!! R.I.P.

[@Adam_Oreo98]

What I love most about Death is how they managed to be progressive without it just being technical wankery. The songwriting is just so good. All of the riffs flow so well into each other and fit/ together perfectly. It just sounds fucking amazing. Purely pleasant to listen to. Yet at the same time really technical. Chuck's lead on this song is fucking crazy and the fact he played as if it was easy is wild. God level skill.

[@BeingBadAtMaths]

Not even the errors they make here can stop me from loving this.

[@Magojedi]

Chuck schuldiner is the icon in this....his style is soo fucking amazing!!!! Death`S Law...
