PSYCROPTIC - Initiate (OFFICIAL MUSIC VIDEO)

[@TomMKW]

after having listened to this song countless times over the years I can safely say that this is the best song ever made. This shit never gets old.

[@anthraxius696]

True Story my Friend! Cheers!

My favorite hangover song! 10+ volumes.. Everybody else's favorite hangover song - not so much

I wish this band would just become huge already.

[@thedeathmachine666]

this band has gone from one of the good death metal bands to one of the best. this line up is gold. this singer is gold.

[@dbx6072]

I’m so blumin glad I finally rediscovered this song. I found it a long time ago and could never remember what it was called but I could always remember the intro. Finally found it again. Euphoric.

[@albroz6731]

I have always loved the way this song starts , so eerie and melancholic...

[@FugalBaboon]

If you listen to it enough then maybe you'll start to appreciate the vocals. Just takes a bit of time.

[@R3tr0v1ru5]

+FugalBaboon Shouting just isn't as good as deep growls or high pitched evil screams.

[@hashbrownz1999]

I disagree completely, those both just piss me off and sound completely generic.

[@mola55e5]

I grew up on hardcore. Just kinda associate it w that.

[@tyrbaldur5317]

@@hashbrownz1999 I respect your opinion but it's objectively wrong.

[@maxkiller5150]

Why isn't every music video like this? Where I can actually see them playing and appreciate it! These guys are too good!

[@Crystal-hr1dd]

Shit, I almost died of fright when the song suddenly jump-started!

[@marstopia8992]

I directly fell in love with that build-up til the amazing riff starting at 4:05.

[@EerieBetrayal]

i love how these guys write an awesome intro and then follow it with a good song rather than ruining it by putting unstructured rubbish after a nice piece of music lol

[@angelonicci3340]

Dark music is the best , it crushes everything else!

[@BryanCHernandez]

Anyone in 2019 listening to this masterpiece?

[@pitersr739]

[@phemaldehyde]

The vocals sound the way they should sound! Pure raw force. The singer does a perfect job in throwing into relief the lyrical motif. Oh, and it`s an oppinion.

[@kunal_k_]

finally hitting the 1,000,000 mark as I see after a 2 month's comment gap! deservedly done n given, what an amazing thrash track.. clearly one of my absolute favorites!!

[@AttrctdToShinyThings]

Is this the rising of a, next-gen of metal, yet again? It's very unique, and i LIIIIIIIIIIIIIKE IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIT!!!!!!!

[@koolsometimes]

Again if hadn't been for Punk/Thrash we would be listening to glam/hair metal right now. Thank fully bands like this took it to the next level.

[@dncrystal]

i really like his shouting style vocals. I think it adds an energy to the overall atmosphere of the song that constant lows or highs dont have

[@StrikerDF]

Listen to the album in full. then you will learn to love his unique vocals. Wouldnt change a thing about them imo. Brutal as fuck

[@Defensive_Wounds]

Bloody good track! Up there with a few from Suffocation's self titled brutal CD, but only a fraction of its growling it could have. I like it as much as Opeth's clean vocals and growling combo. :)

[@blackbrother1386]

Just fucking amazing. Hopefully they can keep up

[@michaljirak9009]

I am very happy that I could see them live three times.

[@YamilaMayorga]

me encanto!!!

[@Astarothh6]

Te amo

[@ThaigerDon]

Probably safe to say Psycroptic is THE best band signed onto Nuclear Blast Europe and I hope they make all the money they deserve so they can keep makin albums

[@bakedspade]

Still not old.

[@certifiedpet]

I don't think I have been more excited about a show than when I heard Psycroptic is coming with Nile!

[@DaoineEile]

The band is one of few from Australia really worth listening to. The whole world must give recognition to these guys for their creation and musical style. By the way, the "few" means numbers a man can count by only his one hand. What these deserve... you know.

[@bernieorbust6104]

Lol there are more than a few good bands coming from aus

[@MungasaurusBravo69420]

Worth listening to? Mate I can name at least 50 metal bands from Australia that match it with anything else from around the world

[@distortionfiend]

Y'know, as much as I wasn't a fan of living in Australia, thank the gods for making me switch on to whatever channel it was that played this on that random ass Wednesday. What a great band, and what a stellar song.

[@TerminalM193]

I fled from Australia as well, luckily before the plan-demic. Our rights were being trampled on left and right with hardly any law and order.... Proud to be an American now but honestly I'm starting to see the exact same things I saw back in the early 2000s in Australia starting to happen here now....

[@scoutevans2387]

why do i not listen to them more fucking love this band!

[@scoutevans2387]

possibly

[@denial1018]

I listen to them every other day, best option is to do that. Because, the day you do listen to them, they slot right in to your daily routine.

[@Drydenskater]

their drummer is ridiculously insane

[@TrexinoZ]

If this is song had chalky doing vocals it would be insanely mental.

[@magx01]

Yep

[@LordTodmir]

Nuclear Blast Records impressive band. It's become a must. I will buy the album at my local retailer. So good...

[@perthDev]

one more reason to retire in Tasmania

[@godthealmighty671]

Osamu not far from home

[@LoRdBIzzArrE]

this band is incredible, and the vocals are SICK haha he does a bunch of different styles

[@666aiolia]

Sounds pretty like Decapitated from the old Days (winds of Creation riff).

[@MrVoxBoss]

666aiolia and then decapitated stopped writing anything other than open notes.. man Winds Of Creation and Nihility were two amazing albums

[@pawelsluszko2301]

Bollocks

[@nono-lb2bz]

From the same city as these guys. Great feeling to know someone from Hobart has became this famous for good music !

[@Tenshin66]

Thank god a Aussie band that isn't a generic deathcore band, Australia is so fucking bad for that

[@gamerdareswins2825]

I apologise for parkway drive. I listen to pure death metal, not that fuckin core shit.

[@merlijntoby8528]

Karnivool, Be'lakor, BTBAM, King parrot. All great Aussie bands!

[@gamerdareswins2825]

Merlijn Toby king parrot are like a bogan Pantera with a bit of death metal thrown in with a Aussie pub punk feel.

[@gamerdareswins2825]

Daniel Logan never heard of them. Go check out Septic flesh and Fleshgod apocalypse.

[@merlijntoby8528]

+Daniel Logan that's right, sorry! Cattle decap is awesome yeah, and Ne Obliviscaris is another great band from Australia.

[@greeneyeddevil7251]

I love these guys, and I usually don't even like technical stuff. But the vocalist has like 18 different voices and the instruments are right on time, every time. VERY impressed with Australian metal lately.

[@yousifmufeez7792]

rules of logic and physics do not apply on this band. brilliant riffs, insane drumming!

[@2e3t9d4c]

The harmonics in the outro are incredible

[@alvanblood4294]

like a modern deathmetal

[@peterrijks4995]

It's technical death metal

[@musicalharmony100]

Its like the band is practicing,and some guy pissed off that he cant work his camera,and the band goes"dude you wanna join our band"and thats how this video was created.Nah these guys are great.

[@tomazrutar3516]

Get a new singer and enter for death metal valhalla. Great rifs, killing drums, HC voice.......a little more grind core......

[@michaelwells9378]

Listen to some of there other stuff. The singer as a lot of versatility. As someone that has been listening to them since there were just a pub band they can do a lot :P

[@tomazrutar3516]

Thank u i will!

[@chrisshervey5530]

Nah

[@fishyman2k5]

listen to psycroptic's other stuff. he doesn't always do that yelling vocal style, he actually has a really good variety of growls and screams, he just does yelling in this song

[@TomAraya20121983]

Great Song but Vocal Sucks :/

[@85Aheadstix]

Disagree..

[@tylerpupo2886]

The first time KZbin recommended nailed it💪

[@MegadethMiller]

This song never gets old. It inspires me to reach new levels of shred on guitar.

[@Inklebonker1]

what are you talking about the clean screams are too good. their the only reason i love them so much its so unique.

[@ImagesOfPurgatory]

This is amazing musicianship, left a huge first impression

[@Theheavymetalscott]

Rather than pointlessly trying to deduce what genre a song is when I listen to is, I tend to try and get my head round the drum grooves/beats, listen to the lyrics and enjoy the guitar riffs. Yeah I actually LISTEN to the music.

[@1989Metallicaman123]

ive played with dave haley before when he was playing with blooduster. we where lucky enough to be one the bands to open for em. man he was killer that night

[@blakemoore1905]

Been listening to this since the day it came out. This is theyre catchiest song imo. It always gets stuck in my head for days after i hear it. The notes/melodies they chose for this where just perfect. And the whole song has such good flow. Ive been listening to this band since i was in like 6th grade and the older i get the more i appreciate these guys geniusness for real

[@TerminalM193]

This album and scepter of the ancients were their last great albums. Their new stuff is just a shell of its former self.... I too started listening to these guys around 6th or 7th grade, 34 now.

[@Overwhelmingdislike]

This is the song that got me hooked forever as a loyal fan!!!❤

[@Ricardo_Rosa]

The first heavy part after the intro and right before the vocals is very cool!

[@hityub]

These dudes popped up in my Spotify discover playlist and the name brought back vague memories of this video. Didn't like the vocals at the time but I'm glad I could reconnect with an old memory :)

[@DarkMasta69]

Tassie boys!! Keep slayin them!!

[@murder13love]

Everyone shut up and listen to the drums, that is what this band is all about and you know it!... Hes got some serious talent!!

[@Claymish]

I had the good fortune to open for these guys once, twas pretty awesome.

[@Stanggwarbeard]

One of my all time favorites.

[@laysstandard]

thats what makes the rest of the song so much better.

[@gashousegorillas1]

Kick ass!!

[@EdgeStormcrow]

seen the band tons live here in Australia.. Dave's a really nice guy, excellent drummer, very modest..

[@Draxx1134]

I like everything about this band. Just cause i grew up with punk,hardcore and thrash. So listening to a death metal band that has a hardcore like vocalist is like heaven. I mean, a band hat has death metal vocals but sounds like heavy melodic rock is Beyond The Sixth Seal, and they kick some serious ass too.

[@samuelsilvarodrigues]

how the hell is it possible that there are people that don't like this music? this is music from god's ipod!

[@Soulfide]

The guitar work is amazing in this especially when it slows down

[@Claymish]

Drawing with a computer program is still art. Art is just a representation of someones emotions that they convey through a medium. Music is an auditory medium, and thus any collection of notes, be they computer or not are still music.

[@_mellosine]

I like how at the end they're still playing while the music fades.

[@Dylanthepure]

saw these guys at Bastardfest in Brisbane the other night....so much talent

[@Jez4prez]

saw psycroptic live and they blew me away. dave haley live is insaneeeee!! one of the best drummers imo. and all the drum warmups he was doing before the show even started were sick as haha when he started warming up I thought a machine gun went off initially...although i was drunk. I still miss chalky though :(

[@perthDev]

Good balance of technicality and groove

[@2ndCthulhu]

This is Tech-Death, right? So, it's about experimenting with the experience of music, right? So, this vocalist is completely legit and appreciated for his shouts. And admit it: He doesn't exclusively shout. He's growling, screaming - The whole deal. He does mainly shout, but his skills go beyond it, he's varying with the techniques like only few vocalists do. This guy perfectly suits a tech-death-band and I would see them anytime if they ever played in my area.

[@OmaLowne]

A "chef d'oeuvre" amongst a master piece of an Album!!

[@driekone]

metal stands for what you want it to. I am listening to the song, thanks.

[@monstermasher666]

saw these guys a few years back in a small venue the riff at 2:00 stuck in my head since then

[@EdgeStormcrow]

Damn Haley plays those drums very naturally, no quantisation, love his style

[@Panzinfantry]

Saw them live yesterday... I have never head such a tight band live, it's insane!

[@kobra867]

i listened to this song like twice a month ago and wasnt sure i liked it so i left it but it kept playing in my head so i listened to it again and now i cant stop

[@laysstandard]

hell yeah. this band kicks ass. you just have to get accustomed to the different vocal style.

[@cornelazarius]

absolutely awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@hilariousgas]

I love how their guitar lines are like a solo themselves

[@frenkiebeats]

really I think this guy is a great vocalist. He can go really deep or more hardcore like. and his screams are sick to.

[@PebHounet]

le trigg a un son de plastique !

[@devic667]

Yeah, I remember them back in 2009 when I almost missed their entire show due to the freekin' traffic jam. The weather was fine, hot as hell (they had a festival gig in the middle of august at circa 4 pm) and yeah, I remember that blast from the past :) Heh and this one is like the ultimate boss challenge at the very end of the album, great!

[@Shblibble]

Saw these guys at the Corner Hotel in July and they played a great show. Had a plumb spot watching the Haley brothers and they're both so capable. David is so precise yet so strong, belting out the blast beats with solid volume. Very very capable and entertaining band. They're my favourite and just so happen to be Aussie. a nice co-incidence for me. I really liked Chalky, but Peppiatt's good too. He's good fun on stage. I only wish these guys would do a video for (Ob)servant as well.

[@jazzbluesshred]

love the singers voice. its like proper hardcore and metal mixed, such a dope band

[@ZeroSignal79]

First time ever hearing this band.Epic drummer win

[@esb82593]
