[@tylerwojcik9548]

That ending had me dead 💀

[@boneitch]

I worked at a cd store as a teenager. and because I was the metal head, I had to sort the metal section. The amount of cds that just stayed in the 'New arrivals" box, because I couldn't read the damn band names was impressive and embarrassing 😭

[@justpassingthrough7990]

Omg that's hilarious. I love metal myself but I can't read their logos worth a d*mn either 😂

[@boneitch]

@@justpassingthrough7990 I know it's part of the subculture now, and I've grown to love it. But whenever I'm at a black n death metal show, doing a drunken merch shopping spree, it kind of sucks having to decipher the band names on the actual shirts the day after before you gift them, to make sure you didn't just accidentally buy some nazi band shirt 😅.

[@Valineris_The_Phoenix]

Didn't you have like that paper that they give you where all the stuff the store is getting is listed (I don't know how's it called in English). Basically a list you have to check out for the goods you're receiving.

[@ludoletono]

You had to be there. I remember alt-tabing right as Nik took the Arsis bit too far using photoshop. And then came back to the stream exactly at Nik's realization that chat was right all along about the "A" being slightly different than the "s". Comedy gold. Never change Nik, we love ya!

[@SamDestroyer29]

That ending was the best revelation of the year

[@bleedblack23666]

There is a death metal band called party cannon and their logo is the toys r us font

I've been dabbling in metal logos and it's astonishing how close you can get to pure symmetry and still get different letters. Really cool stuff.

[@Turiyaband]

[@Lowfe]

Blood Incantation’s logo might be hard to read but damn, they go hard. Hidden History Of The Human Race is such a good album

[@ethanlee9692]

Tbf making metal logos out of Lego and making the bands out of Lego figurines sounds pretty damn fun

[@Shsjier]

They would destroy your feet

[@Colorless9]

One of the bands in this video, Eucharist, formed in 1989, are actually considered to be pioneers of melodic blackened death metal, which eventually paved the way for At The Gates, Dark Tranquility, Dissection, and In Flames. Try reacting to their song Greeting Immortality in their 1992 demo! The demo has beefier production than their debut A Velvet Creation.

[@norbertkalina8733]

Thy Catafalque is dope as fu... Despite being genred as avant-garde it has so many great instrumental melodic metal songs (sometimes with Hungarian folk verses)

[@rumista8654]

This is a fun one lmao. I love videos where people try to read metal hieroglyphs. I would love to see more of this. When i try to design logos for myself just for fun, i also like to mirror half of the design, and add or remove a few lines to fit the letter.

[@CountGremlin]

"there's no geometry" followed by that painful sigh hahahahaha 🤣

[@Mia-hl7dy]

I was crying laughing when I watched the VOD and was really hoping for a YT video on the whole Arsis rant - so thank you! 😂

[@matthewgrady3423]

As a wrestling fan, some of the designs made me think of when World Championship Wrestling changed their logo in 1999.

This video straight up had me in tears 😂😂🤣 thanks for all the laughs this afternoon

[@Embersword281]

this stream had me in bloody tears omg

[@Johnfromthedesert]

Nik would LOVE Arsis if he gave them a chance. Especially the album, We are the Nightmare. Features Ryan Knight (ex The Black Dahlia Murder, and I think he sat in on a tour playing for Abigail Williams) on lead guitar. Well, I say "lead", but vocalist/guitarist James Malone and he switch off seamlessly and frequently.

[@DeadInGrave]

the end was hilarious. This is why I love to watch Nik's videos. What day and time does he stream at Twitch?

[@marcus2239]

The Partisan Turbine. That's a hard one to figure out (Awesome Bass Instrumental on the album ) And Universally Estranged 's Logo too

[@landonthrone7361]

This is the first time I've ever cried laughing because of a video. The end just killed me

[@KatyaGloba]

I am not a big fan of metal music. I mean, I appreciate some songs and bands, but this music genre just isn't my favorite. But somehow I found your channel. And this video just made me laugh soo much. I was a bit..SAD all day :D. But you and your video helped me to get out of my thoughts and just enjoy. Thank you, Nick! Sorry for my English tho. Not my native language.

[@xburninxthexremainsx]

sometimes when we get writers block we watch your videos and honestly lmao you're a national treasure

[@Zsombor_666.]

fun fact Thy Catafalque is a hungarian band and i'm hungarian and i think it's the only Avant-garde metal band in my country but definitely the most popular

[@TidusfromZanarkand]

I feel proud I instantly recognised both bands in the Thumbnail ^^ (Top is Blood Incantation, Brutal Technical Death Metal, and bottom was Bloodbath, concept Melodic Death Metal band by top musicians, like Michael Akerfeldt on vocals)

[@krauterlikor]

from the stuff in the video i might have found some indicators for what genre it is: unreadable tree root looking stuff - death metal drawings - black metal sounds like a hipster beer - progressive

[@colt6800]

OMG I laughed so hard at the end 😂 thanks man

[@thecoconutfromthetf2files]

As someone who draws these, W, I, and T are some of the worst letters to do lmao

[@archangelofcoffee922]

Bloodbath's logo should be pretty straightford since they're a somewhat popular band for death metal. I know a lot of prog fans that like them since Mikael form Opeth was in the band for a bit. That one "I can get into this" death metal band despite their heavy HM2 sound next to later Death and a certain At The Gates album for those not too much into the genera (love the new record btw).

Thy Catafalque is really good. Certainly one of the better avant garde metal projects out there. I can recommend Meta, his 2016 album. That's the one that got me hooked.

I'm hoping sanguisugabogg, or however you spell it, was on the list at some point.

Literally the hardest I have laughed all year. Sure it's only Jan 18th but holy fuck am I glad I watched until the end. My gut hurts.
