Saw these guys live last summer, closing down the metal festival "Gefle Metal" in Gävle Sweden. They were fucking incredable, they kicked ass, very very unique theater almost mythical and mideval feeling too them, alos quite psychotic. Most of their albums have like a theme or story they are telling. The vocalist has a very good and unique stage presence. He tell stories and amp up the crowd very good! Great live band, even though you haven't listen to them much, I asure you will like them if you like metal!

Hey all, this video is 5 months old so guessing no one not even Alex will read this but figured why not, having only recently stumbled upon Avatar, would highly recommend the king welcomes you to avatar country, song and video is awesome, have only watched 4 of there videos so far, the 3 that Alex has reacted to and avatar country, dont have many friends in general but even less who like this kind of music so if anyone could also recommend any videos to me as well as Alex, it would be greatly appreciated, also on a personal note, Alex thank you so much for your reactions, i lost my baby girl a couple of years ago and have barely cracked a smile or laughed since but almost everytime i watch your videos i can forget about all the crap life has dealt me, dude you are the man, this is the part where i would put a fist bump emoji but dont know how lol
