This Is Why I Like Obituary.

[@zacharycollins6548]

Watching Jusin genuinely enjoying Obituary is the best thing on the internet today.

[@edguyrocks5865]

It is....haha

[@vladimiraofficial]

Feeling the same.

[@joefarang]

it made me enjoy it, and i'm not a fan of this kind of music ordinarily.

[@IvanoForgione]

absolutely!

[@bengreenbank]

As a huge death metal fan and regular channel viewer I wasn’t expecting this crossover. Nice stuff

[@carlosvonbismarck1217]

literally same

[@DavidJackson]

Justin, according to a website with a "Today in Rock (October 11)" it stated, "In 2006, singer Justin Hawkins announced that he left The Darkness to focus on his drug rehabilitation." I just wanted to say thanks for taking that step. I'm glad you're still around.

[@joeyobee32]

Im sure that's exactly what he wanted to be reminded of today

[@kellecetraro4807]

@@joeyobee32 Actually, I think it is, "exactly", the kind of thing he'd get a kick out of being reminded of 🤘🏼

[@danielwatson7319]

I imagine he is very happy to be reminded of it. He is back with The Darkness and has been sober for years. We are extremely proud of him and happy he realizes he needed help or would not be around to entertain.

[@2A4BDGV]

Such an amazing accomplishment! Who wouldn't love to be reminded of it!

[@johanna8946]

​@@danielwatson7319 I have found that a lot of people who have found sobriety are happy to be able ro help and encourage others that are struggling. Look at Nikki Sixx. He is always reaching out and talking to people that are struggling. I think acknowledging this anniversary for Justin is good. Most people celebrate their sobriety birthdays. We are glad he is still here doing these videos and entertaining us! I'm thankful he is!!

[@sole__doubt]

Love that beat up dual humbucker Strat.

[@jamesennis8837]

Obituary are amazing groove is so sick

[@matrixv01]

As the drummer in a death metal band and fan of this channel, I thank you. Brilliant analysis.

[@IAmJKey]

There's proper inspiration here for death metal rag-time with a good solid disco beat and a clap track.

[@RickReasonnz]

Reminds me of a KZbin vid that took away the distortion of Black Metal and made it sound like Surf Rock

[@Dreyno]

Needs tambourine.

[@boofert.washington2499]

Bee Gees with blast beats?

[@thelemonoftroy]

As a very casual metal fan, I’d never actually heard Obituary so thank you for this! I get to see you in Brisbane next week and I can’t wait. Keep killing it man!

[@craigmunro7708]

Finally somebody who listens to death metal the same way as I do via dance moves and hand claps

[@MrAaronbathory]

Obituary - The End Complete was my first proper death metal album. However Slowly We Rot is easily their best work in my opinion. A classic debut of American death.

[@thedevilinthecircuit1414]

"The rotting waste comes out 'cher ears." Maybe? J-Hawk, your channel is a breath of fresh air in the YooChoob wasteland. You prove time and again that a tatted Rock Star can be intelligent, humble, well-spoken, self-deprecating, truly informative and FUNNY all at the same time. Thank you for doing this, good sir. You are a national treasure.

[@joycastle.]

I respectfully disagree. He is an INTERnational treasure. Greetings from Germany 😁

[@celuloiddreamer]

I vote for international Justin Hawkins day. Closely followed by international Frankie Poullain day (not to be confused with international bass player of the year day, which he wins by default every year anyway).

[@kylanmcnichols6525]

I always thought it was 'with rotting ways comes destiny... Feel it slowly taking over... BLEEED' So much fun as a kid making up lyrics for this.

[@macdeath69]

Obituary is a band with its own league, and one of the best thing ever, so groovy. I would love to see John Tardy being interviewed by Justin.

[@Akira-5]

The smiling and clapping along to the death metal blast beats may be one of my favorite things ever lol

[@stuartallison2043]

So glad to now be able to accommodate 'tremblewanger' into my outmoded guitar phraseology... another excellent intro to new stuff to bring added joy to my existence (and I mean that!) thanks.

[@shpeen8835]

From this day on, you shall be called tremblewanger that is to be called tremblewanger

[@sircoynie]

Man I love this channel. Justin has great taste in music, knowledge and humour.

[@jobrimar8291]

Respect! The Obituary boys are still keeping it real ( and un-fused), such an excellent live band and John Tardy, a brilliant example of using your voice as a rather unique instrument.

[@gahangore111]

I love that anytime someone talks to Justin they're doing an over the top Mick Jagger impression. Must make life an absolute hoot.

[@Baneumann66]

Crazy that Death Metal comes from from sunny South Florida. Death was amazing too.

[@sole__doubt]

Obituary has what all great music has to have - groove.

[@The_Knight_Mayor]

I never knew I needed a Justin Hawkins OBITUARY acoustic cover so badly until today. LOl

[@allanjensen8324]

I fucking LOVE that I have found your Channel… I took me a minute to figure out who You are, and It has Got me going in a The Darkness Hole … You are full of suprises and I love that so thank you

[@davidphillips9726]

Was never super into the death metal genre, but, Obituary always stood out to me. There was a lot more going on beneath the surface with them that you didn't always hear in other death metal bands.

[@deathmetalmadness4642]

Cause Of Death is a classic Death Metal record, Trevor Pères has a killer distinctive guitar tone that I love, you always know its him

[@napalmsanctuaryx4129]

That's James Murphy, formerly of Death, playing on lead. He's one of my favorite parts of Cause Of Death.

[@KyleS3m3noff]

His two solo albums are so damn good.

[@Andrew_DC5]

Really enjoyed this one as a death metal fan for the last 20 odd years. Obituary are awesome! So good live!

[@jamieharrison417]

Love it when songs make good use of the tremblewanger

[@r0flgal0re]

One unequivocal truth is that sometimes - just sometimes - the tremble needs wanging.

[@bridgetyoung190]

😂🤣😂so true.

[@jasonsoutthere7733]

I'm from NW Florida and back in my day the Florida Metal scene was on fire! I was always on the punk side of things but a lot of those bands came through our town and totally kicked ass! People were coming out of the mosh pit with missing teeth and dislocated noses!

[@andysalter7192]

Man as a 16 year old Aussie kid I imagined Tampa Florida was the most magical place in the world and it was a town full of nothing but Metal heads ! I desperately wanted to go .

[@leperwitch]

I really respect how diverse your taste in music is. Getting stuck in a rut with what you listen to is a sure-fire way to stifle creativity.

[@leperwitch]

@Jonontoast Yes 😉

[@JohnSpo]

Justin, can you start a wardrobe channel where you try on different fits from your collection for us? I imagine you have massive walk-in closets as you wear a different ensemble in every video and you've posted millions of videos already. Thanks!

[@easterislandhead9579]

End complete is amazing. I bought the tape at the same time as tori amos first album. Record shop guy was real confused… Concrete sledgehammer riffs like no other. No filler, every track a monster 👿

[@HailTheRiff126]

This made my day! Love Obituary. Old school Death Metal with a nice swing to it.

[@bridgetyoung190]

I freaking love death metal ragtime. How can you deny the power? 😁🤘🏻 I am also particularly fond of the black metal smooth jazz fusion coming out lately. Really cutting edge stuff. 🤗

[@ludwigmichiel188]

Black metal smooth jazz fusion? Bet you'll like Imperial Triumphant feat. Kenny G 😛 kzbin.info/www/bejne/r6jGpJucp9WCaaM

[@fearvo]

This is great. I love "cause of death". James Murphy just absolutely made the lead on that album. Regular guitarist Adam west (who wasn't involved in this album) of course went on to form Six Feet Under with former cannibal corpse singer, Chris Barnes as well as with former Death bassist, Terry Buttler.

[@ThePowerman121]

Obituary is still putting out great music and their music videos are some of the best ever.

[@phoenixgirl70]

Every time Justin said “stop it” I was laughing and then his input was just so perfect, just saying “stop it” turns me into a 12 year old boy and I love Justin so much for it. Not many things to just stupidly laugh about these days.

[@petewiseman]

Nice. I've always heard that line as 'With rotting ways comes Destiny'. Cause of Death is a great album ;)

[@MeatsAndCheats]

Great video, I’ve never heard of obituary before but it’s now enticed me into exploring their music and to try and seek someone to flick me off.

[@manuelluispereira1139]

Should start with End Complete its their most accessible album and work from there

[@bernarddickson3675]

At the time, all metal albums had lyrics. It added a genuine sense of mystery, and the vocals were in a league of their own. Classic album. Great vid, on point.

[@witch_haunts_ghost]

This video was brilliant today. Watching your reaction made me so happy! See you next week in Brisbane!

[@velvetoshins]

Best music show around! It’s like I’m just hanging with one of my buds.

[@1000poundsguitar]

Well thank you for taking a visit to Florida today! We’re happy to have you. We’re actually nice people down here! The sun tends to bake your brains a bit. That explains the double bass drums…

[@vgaportauthority9932]

Infected is also an awesome song from that same album. This is the only death metal album I owned back then. Didn't know it was held in such high regard. Makes sense, it's rad. I listened to this and the Paradise Lost album Icon on repeat for a whole sad 90s summer. It was great.

[@MrSkullhead1]

"Icon" is classic! "Embers Fire" is my go-to car singalong song.

[@dimirockeropoulos6104]

Love the fact you're an Orbituary fan, personally prefer Slowly we Rot, but this was a banger as well.

[@artmonkeys]

2:01 “proposed fusions of Death Metal and…….Rag Time.” You, sir, are an alchemist of music. An alchemusicist. Brilliant, as always.

[@alistairnorris2211]

Justin, I love your channel dude. I remember being 10-11 in Glasgow watching the Darkness live and you flying onto the stage on a giant pair of breasts, now I'm 30 and watching you analyse Obituary. Shits neat.

[@Goingdowntobeavertown]

I took my 11-year-old son to see The Darkness as his first gig this year. He said it was his best day ever.

Keep 'em coming Justin mate, you're a great music reviewer/explainer/appreciater/dissector. A lot of music critics could take a few leaves out of your book.

8:15 has always been one of my favorite transitions. Its straight butter and subtle. Kudos to the mix for letting that bass line run clean through it too. Heard them on college radio station back in the day. Bought it the next day. This was my second death metal album after The Bleeding. Good days those were.

[@jone2tone133]

Obituary on an acoustic guitar is probably the last thing I thought I'd ever hear

[@fearvo]

Lol! So true! Justin commits sacrilege! I remember reading a magazine article which Trevor Perez said "I don't see an acoustic guitar being on an obituary album ever. Ever."

[@albarnes6421]

If you say "Tremble Wanger" enough it shall come to be!

My band used to practice next to these guys in the same storage complex. Great scene of rock, metal, and everything else back in the day.

Not surprised at all. Also brilliant show last night in Melbourne. And thanks for hanging out at cherry bar after the show. ❤

This video displays that as glorious as listening to Justin react to music is, WATCHING Justin react to music is perhaps equally as glorious. I would watch a nonverbal physical reaction video from very few, Justin Hawkins is one of those very few.

Am sitting here after my umpteenth sleep interrupted night (I am not a well bunny) and fighting sleep deprivation whilst also still trying to work (Man cannot live on air alone) when Sir Justin of Hawkins drops in the immortal line "the Tremble Wanger" Glad I was not drinking my hot beverage at the time or I would be typing this over a very wet keyboard.
