Most Amazing Metal Videos

[@iangillies711]

“I don’t live in denial, I live in an apartment” is unironically my favorite thing that Nik has ever said

[@ournextarc]

1:09 "It kinda sounds like a banshee having an anxiety attack" is the best way to describe Kyo's vocals during that era lol

[@Ellococrazy1]

Who is this band

[@ournextarc]

@@Ellococrazy1 Dir en grey. The screech is from "Dozing Green" and the growling part is "Agitated Screams of Maggots". Easily two of their most solid songs, most fans top 10 for sure I'd bet.

[@solidxangryjoer4233]

The video at 3:50 is actually from a band playing live called 'Nothing More'. The 'machine' that the singer is standing on is called 'The Scorpion Tail'. It was made by the bassist and is pretty much a midi machine that controls the effects and sounds of the guitars and bass. It's really damn cool as well. There's different buttons and levers that do different operations as well and nothing sounds alike one another. Really cool shit, I saw them perform with the contraption.

[@danielbagby4149]

I've always wanted to see them live. They go all out every time from what I've seen and heard

[@bennachtigall4784]

I was surprised he hasn't heard of nothing more. It's amazing seeing Johnny use that thing live.
