Twelve Foot Ninja - START THE FIRE (Official Video)

[@2SICH]

This new album is gonna be fire! 🔥

[@BagEyes2009]

Yes it is. I can't wait.

[@KasbashPlays]

It's gonna be fire because they literally started it somewhere on the album.

[@djclaudeus]

Yup, so can't wait.

[@n34z3r]

Yeah because they started it

[@MaximusA444]

START THE FIRE

[@simla5]

I still can't get over how Stevic described TFN genre in one interview - WhateverTheFuckIWantCore. There's just no better way to describe this band. Can't wait for the album!

[@TheGodshatter]

Stevie t? Or stevie? Or stevic

[@simla5]

@@TheGodshatter Just as I wrote it. 'Stevic'. Steve McKay, the guitarist...

[@thereallevel27]

The first time hearing of that genre and I like it a LOT

[@lauraharris1359]

They can do all the genres!!

[@roachzero2952]

Beauty seen through a thousand eyes !!! TFN covers literally every base .

[@7lateralthinking7]

We miss you so much guys 😢

[@g-moneyestebands683]

So so much

[@skrasinski]

How are these guys not making headlines in every country around the world?? I've been a fan since the beginning here in America.

[@joshuarobichaud5975]

I found this band 5-6 years ago when you KZbin algorithm put the video for One Hand Killing in my feed. The internet sucks for alot of reason, almost daily, but the program that brought me 13 Foot Ninja should get a goddamn standing ovation. Absolutely LOVE everythinh these guys do and was crushed when I heard Kin was leaving. Here's to hoping they somehow work it out and can get busy again some day. Cheers fellas

[@codyconnolly2954]

They’ve always reminded me of a mix of SCIENCE era Incubus, with Meshuggah, and a dash of Faith No More. These new songs got me excited something fierce!

[@faceachenz8441]

That, is an absolutely mega description! Spot on.

[@phillipweber6059]

I had always told people that weren't privy to the legends that they were like Messhugah and Faith No More had a love child. But S.C.I.E.N.C.E. Incubus was the missing ingredient. Thanks for that comment and I am totally stealing it......with all credit to you, of course!

[@MarkoLos]

I'd definitely add Mr Bungle to the mix and I'd say a lot more than a dash of Faith No More with songs like Oxygen. Incubus is heavily influenced by FNM also but i know what you mean.

[@codyconnolly2954]

@@MarkoLos you’re right. I’d say if you take the albums California/SCIENCE/King For A Day Fool For A Lifetime/ Obzen put them all in a blender... out comes a good approximation of TFN.

[@lauraharris1359]

Yeah definitely hear Incubus in a few songs.

[@JakeJMusic]

Man this album is going to be incredible, so far both the new songs absolutely crush it

[@parramaniac6155]

When you listen to the same song 15 times over a shift and don't even realise because you just enjoy the music, gotta love it.

[@marcos_vipets]

Finally after 5 years, these guys have been busier than a golden retriever in Wimbledon tennis tournament

[@JamieCartwright-qt8lq]

Fused with Retro, It can't get any better. They never folded and now it's going to pay off if they keep going this direction. TFN is on 🔥 No other bands have the balls to truly be themselves nowdays. It's refreshing and what the industry needs. Keep going lads!

[@billyblastbv]

The way you guys evolve tells a wonderful story of a great group of dudes that continue to grow and explore what binds you together. Your artistic vision and more importantly execution is really a pleasure to witness and enjoy! Much love from the USA mah dudes!

as a electronic musician, I have to say that synthetic part really cool and groovy... but in mix with the metal it is mind blowing... cant wait for the new album! bravo!

[@twelvefootninja]

🤘

[@JayRayOfficial]

One thing why I really love this band is they have this very unique style.. it's something special. I used to listen a lot of metalcore but just tired of that stuff now.. Seeing dozens of new upcoming core bands every week and most of them has that same generic sound..

[@Пэдро-д7ъ]

Exactly The same thing is happening with Prog metal, TFN is one of the only bands that have a unique way to be

[@CoryHatfield]

This sounds like Korn mixed with Breaking Benjamin and some Disturbed and a sprinkle of Shinedown.

[@ArturoGarcia007]

@@CoryHatfield cant forget MR BUNGLE/Mike Patton!

[@borgarden2731]

I feel the same way lately about a lot of music and feel myself gravitating towards less heavy bands that have more unique styles. The new Born Of Osiris album is pretty good though.

[@JGM0JGM]

Love the reference to _Over and Out_ at 0:03 on the Ticker Tape... "Scores pf people wandering Victorian bushland in search of "Dream Gravy"."

[@9326metal]

Listened to you guys since 2015. You guys just keep getting better.

[@rachelsaphirecorrelli8678]

[@Nitroso_0]

Damn Kin's voice is amazing, his vocal styles are just so catchy and rhythmic. Can't wait for the rest of the album fellas.

[@8arzum]

Totally agree, his vocals are so distinct.

[@Neonmirrorblack]

@@8arzum Maybe now, but he seemed like he was highly influenced by Mike Patton. He not only naturally has a similar timbre, his style is very reminiscent of him as well. Maybe it's all just a coincidence, but Patton was doing this stuff decades before TFN was on the radar. To me, they are the modern day version of FNM.

[@manuz508]

@@Neonmirrorblack Yo creo que Kin Etik es un gran cantante y lo demuestra en cada tema que sacan. Aunque si que se parece a Mike Patton, tiene tantos registros que nunca me dejan de sorprender...aparte la creatividad que tiene y las letras.

[@michaelmichaelson8861]

@@Neonmirrorblack there's still something very unique about them - they way the blend in different styles, from funk to math metal... Too bad the vocalist is leaving the band

[@twelvefootninja]

Thankyou :)

[@groggyfroggyfpv6868]

Same dude. My #1 reccomendation to everyone also. I always say, if you dont like a song try a different one. No two songs are the same, unlike some more "popular" groups.

[@SgtM0le]

"He didn't lose the plot. The plot lost him" is as powerful as the opening lyric to Sick "Are you sick of being tired? Are you tired of being sick?". Can't wait for this album!

[@justinmitchell4520]

Why isn't this band selling out stadiums!!!! So good, and the videos are always awesome. I need to see them live!! Come to Massachusetts, USA!!.... Please and Thanks!

[@naj5999]

You guys are the all time undisputed kings of the music video. Always a great time!

[@toddpronovost]

This song has taken over the others in my head.

[@EnergyChasms]

You guys have an instantly recognizable sound, even when you put out a song that isn't quite my thing, it still triggers a "OH YEAH" in my brain cause you just have such a unique take on heavy music, and pull it off so well.

[@twelvefootninja]

Thank you very much!

"Out of order... our of order"... this lick man, you kill me with this... again... much love from Germany mates!

[@killdozer3464]

saw TFN for the first time in 2016 Louder Than Life Festival! They were the first band on the first day. They got everyones attention within the first 10 seconds. My wife and I looked at each other and said "thats gonna be a hard act to follow". Never heard of them before, became a fan, instantly. They sound so good live!

[@levelupson1790]

UNDER HEARD UNDER RATED! ONE OF THE BEST BANDS EVER

[@larrysmith1851]

Also loving the 80s synth sci-fi track sounding background accompaniment. Awesome blue grey dystopian visual elements so perfectly compliment the track. Nailed this one and can’t wait to hear more perfection off the new album!

Finally made it through all 5:33 of this video - stunningly sick in every glorious audible and visible detail! Love the cameos by Brusnik, Geezer, and Clown posting the HIGH KICK SCORE.

Can we please give Mr. Russell some props? Is he Steve Gadd? No . . .but he might be! Is he Neil Peart? No. . .but he might be! I venture to think that if he were asked to play anyone's transcripts/charts, he could. Mr. Russell, you inspire me to keep playing drums, jazz breaks, funk breaks, metal . . . whatever, your playing is perfect for this band and it feels like you always play for the song . . .a pleasure to listen to. Stomp the 1. THANK YOU and on a side note . . .why is there a vocalist wanted post on the website? Don't try to fix what isn't broke . . .Mr. Barker? C'mon boys, keep it together . . . don't let pressure or egos make decisions you may regret. You've had success, why throw it away? Just saying . . .and lawyers will take their cut . . .

[@briantopps5638]

In a world of whiny vocals and boring riffs 12 foot ninja always amazes me. The guitar and bass work always on point and never get dull at any moment. The drums are killer peopme really sleeping on the fact that shane is one of the best and tastiest drummers in a metal band and the vocals are so refreshing, a deep voice but an inpressive range and ability to sing multiple styles
