Therapist Reacts to Dig by Mudvayne

[@n.88.]

Thank god you went with the unedited version!

[@tracyfrink3594]

That really is key for this song. That squeaky clean version really ruins the entire thing.

[@Johngischala]

Ok

[@mikesale6474]

Really?..........Ugh

[@n.88.]

I mean this is the worst song on the album, but it’s unbearable to listen to if it’s the edited version.

[@ReactManiaABM]

​@@n.88.Lmao. Definitely isn't the worst.

[@DawnsHhcg]

This song was released when i was a teen and chronically suicidal and angry. This song gave me a place to put that anger. I love mudvayne.

[@Jcikokalol]

That's awesome. Glad you found them. They were so much to so many in different ways. This album is a masterpiece the whole thing I just *chefs kiss* of everything all in one. And the more you listen to it the more you find. My least fav song was internal primates and like 2 years after getting rhe record I finally saw the beauty in it as I started to understand it. It became one of my favs. Glad to see you're still here. And good taste in music

[@DawnsHhcg]

@Jcikokalol thank you for your kind words. Yes, L.D. 50 was a masterpiece. I felt the same way about a couple of songs. I had to really listen to understand just how deep these songs went, both intellectually and emotionally

[@davidchanko5024]

This is why music is so powerful!! Glad you are still here to tell your story!!!

I can't wait until you get to 'World So Cold' by Mudvayne. One of their best songs in my opinion.

Agreed 👍👍

Mudvayne has alot of great songs I could name off a list

[@shannoncrisp911]

That is a very deep song ❤️

[@davidward9737]

Thanks Taylor for the uncensored version. I have notice you do that with your songs. Im sure the fans here appreciate it. As people have said Death Blooms should be next for Mudvayne

[@evantarracciano4211]

If you're attempting to do any sort of a deep dive, even though "Dig" is by far their most famous song.. they have SOOO many other selections to pick from with more lyrical layers. "Happy?", "World So Cold", "Death Blooms", "Fall into Sleep" and "Not Falling"... just to name a few. Best wishes.

[@jamesw8698]

world so cold and not falling i wanna say are more known, not falling was at the end scene for a movie too

[@righteous247]

Legends. They came in at a perfect time when the mainstream was pop and boy bands.

[@gawf99]

Mudvayne came up in the era of Nu Metal. They refused to conform. This is the way they are. And they held true to it. I loved them back then growing up and I still love their reunine tours.

[@JonasBass-vf5lb]

Iv been waiting for this song soooooooo much. It's one of my favorites

[@ENCOUNTERZERO7]

I subbed because it is nice to see some one who tries to understands metal on both the lyrical and mental health aspects. Metal is a home for a lot of that have been thru hell mental health wise and can not find a outlet for the anger we hold inside. A crazy thing that a number of big metal names have in common was child abuse and molestation. Metal gave these people a voice and a outlet to voice their pain and trauma.

[@lord_rahleo]

Probably the best off the head analysis of Dig I have ever come across.

[@joshkp14]

Internal Primates Forever is one of my absolute favorite Mudvayne songs, a varied and moving song

[@kenny240]

Internal Primates Forever is one of my all-time favorite songs.

[@jameswilson2268]

It’s my favourite mudvayne song too ❤ got to see them play it live in Melbourne Australia earlier this year, it was epic ❤❤

[@majormogli3772]

still after all the years one of my fav songs!

[@timmiller2913]

Of all the songs Mudvayne ever wrote, Severed is the one that blew my mind the most. It hit hard after my divorce, even though I had known the song for years. Powerful.

[@leristamerello8225]

Holy hell...you did very well at deciphering the lyrics. So many would just hear it as noise, but you picked it up so quickly. I've seen a few of your video's so I shouldn't be surprised...but I'm still legit surprised.

Saw mudvayne at rockville 21. I remember the screams when Chad came up on screen and had the clown makeup on. What a special moment to be there for. They are back and it's raw as fuck

[@patrickbateman7369]

Clown makeup!??

[@dave1986R]

I’ll never forget hearing this song for the first time. It was near the end of my freshman year of high school and I had heard of Mudvayne but not their music. I was hanging out in the drafting room after school one day and much to my surprise, my teacher heard of them and one older kid started playing Dig through the computer speakers that were just cranked. All of a sudden BANG!!! The song came on and it felt like a bomb went off inside the drafting room. I was like “what the hell is this?” That’s what did it for me, I became an instant fan.

[@AppalachianChaplin]

That's f***in rad

[@StitchedBizkit]

Going into my senior year of high school, before our first football game in 2000, I brought this CD in, threw it on... let's just say the school that came, left with the tail between the legs. It became a weekly ritual to play it as we left the locker room

[@attorneymendez]

I’ve been waiting so much for you to do Mudvayne. Phenomenal tune. Have been a fan since day one. They keep saving my life.

[@williamzebub3252]

Fun fact. Mudvayne were nominated for some award when this album was out. The band went to the awards show in suits and makeup to make it look like they were all shot in the forehead execution style.

I need a therapist that can be as easy to talk to and to explain myself to. I love the way you explain your ideas of the music that I love to listen to. I've seen a couple of your videos and I am so taken by the way you come across. The facial reactions you have are also freaking awesome. Keep it real!!!!!! Respect!!!!!

[@atlasisshrugging]

My interpretation of the bridge section of the video, where the black lines start spreading across Chad's face, is that it's a visual representation of someone reaching their "breaking point". His mind is cracking up and he's about to EXPLODE with rage.

[@JenHarris-n6t]

It's either that buy him hating the music industry or it's the addiction taking him down

[@heffatheanimal2200]

I like that concept. It kinda fits with how I saw it too. Late teens, coming out of an abused upbringing, the rage suppressed through childhood bubbling up as furious hate. And because self harm and suicidal impulse was what I knew it became the ultimate concept of destruction. When I hated someone I wanted to hurt them. Violence against them was one thing, but when the breaking point arrives, I tip over into making them hurt themselves. Another though I had later: someone, an abuser, a corporate manipulator, a person in power, is trying to force me to do what I dont want to do, to do that which harms me, which destroys me. Well I'm gonna turn that abound on them, make them do what they dont want, to damage or destroy themselves instead.

[@Tommy-h2x]

World So Cold by Mudvayne please.. this song saved my mental and some of my friends mental when we were in Iraq.. this bands whole discography is amazing

HELLYEAH is a great band, during MUDVAYNE'S hiatus, the lead singer Chad Gray and Vinnie Paul from PANTERA formed HELLYEAH, "YOU WOULDN'T KNOW" is my favorite song, they also did a cover of Phil Collins' 80's hit "I DON'T CARE ANYMORE"

[@michaelivey7517]

I love your interpretation of dig. It makes more sense than what I originally thought. I always figured they were singing about if someone wants to commit suicide, well, let me help you if that's the way you wanna go. Just goes to show how different people interpret things differently.

[@joeyreilly5312]

i love this song. the perspective you have is very intriguing, in a way I never thought of. please make more video reactions to metal songs. thanks you.

This is one of the very few reaction channels I like anymore in the metal world. Most people are ridiculously over the top. Also this woman has great takes on the lyrics, and doesnt drag the video on forever. Good content ma'am.

theyre a great band, i just saw themlive recently (they closed with dig too!). i loved the analysis here, great take on mudvayne. personally ive always viewed the song as a dichotomy between a past and present self, like losing sight of who you are. the new version of the fictional character is killing its past self to fit in and be accepted by the aforementioned "biz" but finding it feels more lost than ever

[@fatdabsallday]

finally get to see them this year with my dad hopefully. Hes having liver issues after his transplant almost 10 years ago so im hoping hes healthy enough to go and the last two years we've been going to see bands we both like. Last year was Lamb of God and Pantera, this year we have All that Remains, Mudvayne, and Megadeth. Megadeth is a childhood favorite for my dad so i got front row for this one same as the pantera one

Bullet, by Hollywood undead. It’s the theme song for men that are “suffering in silence.” Breaking our bodies, ruining our health, and selling our time for a household that doesn’t give a shit. Upbeat happy melody, with depressing suicidal lyrics. It showcases how a beaten down person will smile and say everything is great, while they are dying inside.

Their song "Severed" would be a truly perfect song for a therapist to analyze. And he 'sings' a lot in that song, as opposed to all the screaming you hear in this song. So hearing the lyrics is much easier in that one.

[@jamesingram6775]

I took a lot away from this, mostly that the therapist is a very spiritually and more importantly, MUSICALLY enlightened individual. This is a very clever analysis which has made me both laugh and think in equal measure. Happily subbed. Love from a bipolar xennial demigod.
