Make Them Suffer - Old Souls [Official Video]

[@Z0mBf13d4lf3]

OLD SOULS EXPLAINED: This is not for everyone, rather for those who may be wanting a little something extra from our new album "Old Souls". This album is no where near as descriptive or painterly as Neverbloom was. However, there is an underlying story and it's best followed backwards, from finish to start: Starting from the final track (11), we see in the music video our protagonist being torn from his wife to go to war, he witnesses his best friend be killed and this changes him. He starts seeing a haunting and dark character follow him everywhere he goes. This character is the "Lord of Woe", but his appearance is to be taken in a symbolic sense. he represents the black dog over our protagonists shoulder, the darkness in his life, or just a shadow. At the very end of this music video we see that from witnessing his friend die in war, he has developed a drinking problem. Skip forward two songs to track 8 "Scraping The Barrel" and the lyrics go further into depth about the deep sadness he feels, and that by drinking more, he is "patching" "plugging" and "drying" the holes from which his happiness is escaping him. Finishing the song up with the lyric "Bottoms up, another one down the hatch". Forward another song to track 7, "Blood Moon" and our protagonist is suffering from mental illness (probably to do with shell-shock and alcohol abuse). The lyrics of this song go back and forth between depressed and destructive, as if there were two devils dancing on either side of the protagonists shoulder, until it's revealed at the end of the song in the lyrics that he has schizophrenia. Track 6 is the turning point on the album and is called "Through the looking glass". It's a time for self reflection. Our protagonist literally looks at himself in the mirror and realises what he has to do, as the whispers of insanity slowly leave him. His call to action after this (Threads, track 5) is to give in and surrender, ridding himself of all his material possessions and even his body as he believes his time on earth is done. "Take the weight of my bones, take the pictures and pieces I own. Take away this frame, pick my tissue to threads." Track 4 (Let Me In): It's time for our protagonist to follow through with his call to action, his time on this earth is done. He can no longer live with the deep void he feels from his alcohol abuse. From the scars left from watching his best friend die, and living with the fact that he abuses his wife (see music video for reference). He then comes home one night with a bottle of scotch and apologises to his wife "Annie" in the form of a note, before blowing his brains out. Track 2 Requiem is exactly what it sounds like, it's our protagonists send-off, a lament for the dead, an elegy even tongue emoticon. He has passed away, although he won't be forgotten. "Through my buried bones, my song lives on" - Perhaps HE will haunt Make Them Suffer's NEXT album. Track 1 is the most integral piece of the puzzle. It ties together the entire album. The first line of this "Old friend, let's start again" are the words of our deceased protagonist (his song lives on), pleading with Annie to start it all over again. The next lyric "Try not to spoil the end" is ironic because the line that follows; "It's been so long", does actually spoil the ending of the album - as that is also the very last lyric on the album. Bringing the entire album story full circle. Having this story unfold the way it did on the album was in no way intentional, it just came together that way. Everyone has a story to tell, and if they can dig deep enough to truly learn about themselves, it might just be one worth hearing! Thanks to all the fans for supporting this band through thick and thin, I hope you all enjoyed listening to the album as much as we enjoyed writing it. - Sean Harmanis

+Kalam33t unless they have insurance

[@revenga54]

This was on their facebook page lol.

[@Z0mBf13d4lf3]

Which is why I quoted it directly from Sean, lol.

[@juicyfruit1210]

anyone wanna explain neverbloom?

[@jackoneill2060]

Z0mBf13d4lf3 I’m the kid in that video

[@ReprogrammedToHate]

Can't believe how far Dacre went on acting. While MTS is still a very underrated Metal band.

[@The0Gene]

That intro hits me in the feels for some reason.

[@SxiiJXii]

music is powerful bruh.

[@kvoartr9963]

that's motivation my friend.

[@xxxjakexxx54]

This song gives me a feeling in the pit of my stomach. Though its painful. I'd prefer it to stay.

[@juniorburns59]

hits so hard

[@anthonyp3450]

Feels✨... I still have them sometimes.🖤

[@stargirlkenn]

I’m here for Dacre

[@Sonja_Jae]

@Hailey Clark me too

[@thechosenone1989]

Yh so am I

[@jaslenerovelo5816]

Righhh

[@goatllama9413]

didn't know that dacre listened to this kinda music

[@namphan1218]

goat llama duh he didn’t, he played the main male lead in this video 💁‍♂️

[@toffeelatte6042]

I miss old Make Thenm Suffer so much.

[@JacksonHargrove1985]

Came for Dacre stayed for the music holy shit👏🏻

[@jbowen8538]

This album is so sick and so is this. Fucking love mts.

[@Lvcifxrr]

You should follow me on insta for more great bands "lucifers_core" ☺️

[@DevilsThunderHC]

Agreed

[@jeffharrison9073]

Agree with Jessica. This is my album of the year so far.

[@TheLeeham1]

***** You know Tim... Do you get to go to shows for free? 😄

[@matetarjanyi8168]

you comment on most of their videos declaring your love to them. :D I thought I was the only one doing that.

[@pedroviana8677]

I think I get it: The guy that went to war suffered from post traumatic disorder (hitting his wife on the Let Me In video), developed schizophrenia and went to a mental hospital (Blood Moon), thus leading his wife to abandon him. But, through his schizophrenia his mind created the character of the Lord Of Woe, which is the violent and tortured side of our protagonist, a character that wants revenge for being abandoned (as shown in the Neverbloom album). That would explain Lord Of Woe appearing in Blood Moon and Old Souls, more specifically in parts involving things such as insanity, hatred and despair, giving further evidence that he is a product from the protagonist suppressed emotions. Couldn't get into much detail, but anyway, that's just a theory

[@MetalOfSweden]

Wow, nice !

[@kittyfugaming4993]

And they're called Make Them Suffer because they make us suffer through the feels

[@TheRiot46]

Acho q tens razão. Boa teoria

[@iLi3kCa3k]

I'm glad they let Louisa sing on more than one song.

[@nofatchxplzthx]

Unless she can scream like otep, you don’t wanna turn into another shitty band like flyleaf

[@Gallagher.661]

*Charges the enemies* "It's morphing time!"

[@tristananvilcaster]

One of the greatest bands my ears have ever had the experience of listening to. This band is truly talented, and bring so much emotion through heavy breakdowns, screams, melodic piano, and more. I have found my new addiction, and I have to say this band goes as one of the hardest addictions to break. 10/10

[@dylanvalorfall]

Could not have said it better.

[@zakaryrosenberg4774]

I completely agree, I just discovered this band last wee and I've been listening to nothing but them. they are most definitely my new favorite band

[@BladeofmoonlightKitto]

tristananvilcaster im in love with Louisa Burton aka the piano/keyboard/ clean female vocals, she is really talented ive heard very few piano players pull off what she does over heavy riffs like this

[@F0rce078]

"one of the hardest addictions to break." not the best use of that phrase. How ever i'm picking up what you are putting down.

[@Anomalocaria]

they're good for another album or two, but they're going to plateau and run out of steam if they stick with the same writing scheme. i'd imagine anyone who can play and has tried a couple of their songs probably knows what i'm talking about. they've a handful of favorite licks and chord patterns that they use in just about every track and they're all in the same scale. not that there's anything particularly wrong with that, it's all just going to start sounding the same. also, if they keep ditching their keyboardists, people are going to start to notice that they're using their gender as a gimmick lol

[@cerealonfilm]

MTS always has crazy amounts of emotion behind their music and videos such an amazing band.

[@Payne823]

A Vileblood So true!

[@ixnexus]

Holy shit this song & video gave me so many chills. Fucking amazing. I can't even explain.

[@Nafanxd]

I hate you for that profile photo. My phone just got lobbed across the room.

[@food223]

lol i almost hit my monitor because of it

[@jebasu032]

Damn, can MTS do anything wrong? This song and the whole album is fucking awesome, even the songs i didn't prefer at the start grew on me really quick. This video gave me chills as well. Great fucking job, that is all.

[@zGenjin]

you're on every MTS video

[@uncertain_gnome]

Gen RIP There's only one way you could know this :P

[@Elegyies]

FaZe Jebasu Day 182: I have seen Jebasu yet again, something makes me think that he's following me.

[@jebasu032]

Elegy haha! I think it's just a coincidence we like some of the same stuff :)

[@Touch0fR3d]

FaZe Jebasu dude the whole album is legendary. i havent heard an album this good in 10 years. i thought they wouldnt be able to touch let me in. threads is amazing. old souls. (ptsd veteran so i love the video) and marionette. the best album i have ever heard.

[@frutsi]

Metal and piano go together so well. And this band has refined it like a fine wine.

[@MrCrashcourse03]

Dacre Montgomery who plays the main soldier who comes back home is the Red Power Ranger in the new remake and is also the big brother in Stranger Things. his name is Billy on the show. awesome. love that guy, and i love this band.

[@xXPray4reignXx]

Make Them Suffer is the definition of music. I hear the instruments orchestrated perfectly and the vocals are prestige. And the music video is true cinematography; the music video perfectly illustrates the lyrics. The lyrics make you think about the connections between the songs on the album, its truly genius. Truly a masterpiece! This is why Make Them Suffer is my favourite band, they're unique and special.

[@jaycewesterlo1]

I feel like the band's effort with the use of the keyboard this time round has really given the WHOLE album the feel of "Old Souls". Really well done

[@israhuerta2005]

3:14 holy shit! He went full berserk...

[@pinkDelorean]

Dacre Montogomery is an amazing actor and artist and I love how versatile he is in trying new things ❤️ love and appreciate everything he does ❤️

[@benzaaaaa]

MTS and Thy Art Is Murder - 2 Aussie bands paving the way!!

[@Gjaarn]

[@denomanos7251]

Dont forget about Feed Her to The Sharks, mayne.

[@frigid.999]

A Night In Texas and Northlane

[@frigid.999]

Kyler Ferry I agree, Discoveries was their prime

[@alonzoperez4537]

I'm addicted to this band

[@journeywithrosie]

I just wanted to see Dacre in something else, but this music video was directed and written beautifully. I found myself invested in the story of it all.

[@willgoble6926]

That part at 1:30 is utterly amazing.

[@whiteshadow629]

This entire album is, hands down, the most beautiful thing I've ever listened to.

[@DragonHashira]

I might be tripping REALLY hard but is that the actor that's supposed to be playing as Jason in the new MM power rangers movie?

[@ManiacsTVAU]

It is!

[@robertwlivings2362]

Yup, Dacre Montgomery.

[@IanHTX]

Damn, he has good taste in music. Lol.

[@klarissadamon14]

And Billy in Stranger Things 2

[@StahliCell]

I read Jason and I thought about Friday the 13th (i dont know why), after that I read MM and I was like why is michael myers in this, then finally I read power rangers and I just lost it and I went on to check if they actually made a crossover between power rangers and mike myers. My stupidity surprises me once more

[@michaelharmon9858]

jesus Christ... the video and the lyrics and how much emotion he puts behind them make everything about this song perfect. mad props

[@joakimroos2351]

Most underrated metalcore song ever...

[@toffeelatte6042]

*Deathcore.

[@NakamuraVs]

MMS is are not just another mediocre "core" band. They're awesome! I really like music videos with meaning.

[@slamdaddy465]

I absolutely love the piano intro it's just so amazing the sound is just very comforting

[@cloehelvetica5090]

0:42 they were all listening to this song before battle and bobbing their heads to the rhythm.

[@brookefab2601]

the piano makes it that much greater

[@Fijorh]

why do I have to like all your songs?

[@RAGEOUTBREAK]

My Dear Annie at the beginning of the letter hes writing. Hell yes.

[@GCCake]

3:12 that guy went MLG ham lol

[@bettereveryday4202]

просто супер, эти гитарные рифы, да под клавишные. Просто тащусь с момента 1:28 и далее. Крутой видео ряд! Лайк!

[@Toneferxcore]

YASSSSSS

[@HectorAchilles777]

[@Toneferxcore]

[@BubbleinBed]

HectorAchilles777 that's because she commented YASSSSSS on every video, we get it .-.

[@mikepierr6437]

gijswolters7 SHE????WTF

[@thatbrit2005]

gijswolters7 he does look like a girl don't he hahahahahahahahaha

[@SlavaisFilth]

This movie was awesome with soundtrack being even better

[@tatertotz2001]

"I miss those days" I can relate to this song too much. I had something like this happen to me.

[@grimnlrsoldier2825]

Yet another great song from another fantastic album by Make Them Suffer...

[@MrDigity100]

The artistic beauty in this is amazing. Even if you don't like this style of music, you have to appreciate the musical writing behind this.

[@Theheavyspammingraider]

I'm just now realizing the amount of effort in creating the notes for piano. They put ALOT of work in this album than people thieve.

[@TokiRaven93]

I observe, that this video is the beginning of story of video "Let Me In" and that sooo awesome

[@kitoa7x]

Four letters and one sensation. OMFG !

[@Fucaroubdfindout]

Playing this song at work in the kitchen I had everyone even my executive chef wanting to start throwing bows love make them suffer I have turned a a lot of people into them been listening since their first EP and still not disappointed Australian death metal at its finest 😁😎

[@theonelink]

1:29 hits so hard

[@prodigyking3792]

1:53 fucking amazing

[@vagelischatzopoulos5706]

i dont understand why this video has so few views. it deserves so many more. i mean hello, this video has a killer breakdown, awesome keyboards and a power ranger

[@MassacreofInnocence]

Great Aussie band this needs more views!

[@timaberg6529]

The drums in this song are just fucking beautiful. just play the song over and listen to them.

[@greeneyedbeing]

The woman's voice compliments this song well and the piano

[@adriengonzalesmusic]

This and Let me in touched me, beautiful songs...

[@everrest8830]

Seeing this and the thinking of let me in...... Mind=blown

[@MrPill0w1]

MTS is the epitome of brutal yet beautiful

[@adamcarter143]

this video is very powerful in delivering its meaning

[@konuka_ame]

Old souls is the best album by make them suffer

[@swahnz]

Yes! My favorite song on the album!

[@crmsn83]

So cool they got dacre Montgomery in this video

[@austinburnett178]

Make them suffer is one of the greatest most unrecognized bands out there. Will forever love the things they have created.

[@emiliogarcia7027]

I cri every tiem lol great song! I love MTS. My heart is with every song they've ever wrote.

[@charlottewilkinson7947]

This band is so underrated! Haven't found a single song I don't like, and all their videos give me shivers...new favourite band for sure!

[@greeneyedbeing]

Damn this song is so powerful!, one of my favourites

[@s.kimber4535]

They have the best music videos.

[@janalea2212]

this song is their best, a masterpiece. dacre montgomery is makin it even better.

[@miryampena7822]

I got here for Dacre Montgomery but the song has captivated me

[@cngoodhue8113]

I'd never listened to MTS before today. My older brother and I were driving to church and Requiem came on; I was hooked instantly. When I got home I found them on KZbin right away. This song is my favorite off the whole album (although I swear this is probably the album of the year - total perfection, didn't dislike one song), and the video just adds to the emotion. MTS has a new fan, time to go explore their older stuff.

[@christiantrigueros2406]

Dacre Montgomery 😍😍😍

[@urliltiddygothgf695]

was i here for dacre? yes. but as a rock and metal fan, now i dig this band.

[@kvoartr9963]

never have enough for listening to this song... let me cry on the lyrics and on the piano

[@Destructivepurpose]

So this is like a prequel to Let Me In? Amazing video guys, this song is so chilling. Your new album has everything I could have hoped for and more :')

[@naturedive7335]

i just discovered this band and i already fell in love with them, pure art

[@ScottGenRedPod]

Ft. Billy from Stranger Things

[@jcbastard6999]

I was trying to figure out if it was him

[@randomavenger3048]

Ft. Red Ranger

[@UnknownEmo1995]

after seeing Stranger things, i feel deeply for Billy.

[@TrigoNomentry]

@@UnknownEmo1995 his sacrifice made me like him. Also didnt know this was him.

[@nofatchxplzthx]

This came out before stranger things you degenerate

[@tjmorrow1911]

can't wait to see these guys and architects in July. I'm so ducking stoked

[@jeffharrison9073]

I think this is my favorite song on the album. Kick ass album guys.

[@bananajoe69420]

Jeff Harrison kick ass mustache

[@kilowog9602]

Let Me In+Old Souls= Best band

[@N1ghtmare_Arcana]

gave me chills, was staring at the screen, then a fullscreen

[@nativepride999]

this is honestly the only album I've ever pre ordered, I feel in love with this album when I heard requiem. one of the few albums I can listen from start to end and love every second

[@MrKiuto]

4:18 left hand 4:19 right hand jump cut ^^

[@zakaryrosenberg4774]

my parents used to think metal was all anger and hate....after I showed them this band they understand, Metal isn't hate, Its Raw, pure, and powerful emotions. and this band nails that.

[@kimmy1545]

Ok.....i'm crying!!!!

[@williammendez5026]

I never understood Metal, I love it now. This is not for everybody. I dont think your ready.

[@msamy396]

1:29 guitar drums piano vocals.. eargasming for two weeks straight!!

[@mellymeldawg]

Huge shoutout to our men and women in the military...MTS is bae

[@dawnalisaedwards4463]

A beautiful love song for the Mosh pit, makes me feel it deeply.

[@N1ghtmare_Arcana]

Going on a feels trip

[@AP3XZ3R0]

I absolutely love this song, i had an old soul compared to my peers growing up.

[@mabellinagogh]

Whenever I look at a music video for dacre the song is as great as dacre everytime . this man makes me find awesome songs like him

[@kevinvincent9023]

chills.....

[@benjamingodwin6639]

This instantly became one of my favorite music videos. And i also am pretty sure im in love with Lousia. Gorgeous and talented girl.

[@RDKetch2201]

found this band last week and have been going through their albums, still havent came across a song i didnt like yet... new favorite band???

[@teufelshund5691]

This song is so overwhelming, it feels like new every time I listen to this song.

[@AnnointedGamer]

The Lord of Woe!!!!!! Fuck yeah.

[@djenthallman4448]

Old souls is so underrated.Its like the best album ever

[@coreyharper2643]

The raw emotion in their songs mixed with the beautiful old time look aesthetic. The mood is set profoundly well and there's a plethora of symbolism. Truly an extraordinary album titled song, there's no other way to put it.

[@boneherman8949]

Love the story that connects the music videos. Make Them Suffer fucking killed it with this album, best Australian band by far.

[@quinlanblack3805]

remember back in 2016 when i saw them live in Southern CA on they're first US tour after just getting into them, solid to say theyre one of my favorite bands many years later and i still look forward to every new album (PS they played Old Souls, Let Me IN, and Ether)

[@oopirates96]

Dem feels man.

[@ComradeHeydi]

Dacre 😘❤️👏🏽

[@kevinvincent9023]

I rarely listen to this song because it's so sad and hits me in the feels sooooo hard....probably cried every time except twice.

[@bumgoop]

Beautiful.

[@asphaltexistenzler2215]

this album makes me so feely
