It's solace in my heart, knowing that person's best friend is cold steel in his mouth. Yeah. :thumb:

Shadows 03-21-2006 05:57 PM

Seriously, what's wrong with the video?

Forlorn Hope 03-21-2006 06:01 PM

Well, for one, they didn't even show Alexi playing the cool parts of the solo. God I hate it when bands don't show the solos in their videos!
The words flashed around the bottom were kinda cheesy too. Hmmm, what else...:p

Shadows 03-21-2006 06:03 PM

I meant, why do people get the idea that the band sold out with it?

Sleepy 03-21-2006 06:07 PM

The band kinda sold out with AYDY, if you ask me. They can redeem themselves if they go back to their Something Wild/Hatebreeder Golden Age, though. I'm hoping for a good new release that doesn't further their progression as an Americanized band.

It was just to appease american kidiots who "omg i lyk listen to bodom how hard core am iz".... Yeah.

What is it about the video that makes you think that?

Forlorn Hope 03-21-2006 06:13 PM

[QUOTE=ShadowsFallen]I meant, why do people get the idea that the band sold out with it?[/QUOTE]
Oh...I wouldn't say they sold out on it. I just think they couldh've done better. Either way, Are You Dead Yet video > no video at all

Sleepy 03-21-2006 06:21 PM

[QUOTE=Forlorn Hope]Are You Dead Yet video > no video at all[/QUOTE]

Quality > Quantity

They could've done without it.

Yeah, I have to agree with you there... the video wasn't great... but it is better than nothin...

Quoted for utter truth within. :thumb:

Ben: The theme of the video. It's very oriented towards 12-15 year olds IMO.

The chicks and cops stuff. Just very immature.

EDIT: It also had nothing to do with the songs lyrics.

Shadows 03-21-2006 06:33 PM

Videos almost never have anything to do with a song's lyrics. I also don't see how the cops/chicks are geared for 12-15 year olds. Sixpounder had almost the exact same theme and Every Time I Die had a guy in a cheesy a[SIZE=2]s[/SIZE]s grim reaper costume running through the woods, but [I]this[/I] video is immature?

Yes it is.

Everytime I die's video was okay.

Needled 24/7 has the best video, seconded by TL&S.

Shadows 03-21-2006 06:41 PM

That really makes no sense.

I'm Charming 03-21-2006 06:43 PM

[QUOTE=ShadowsFallen]That really makes no sense.[/QUOTE]

No. Your pathetic argument in favor of this new video does.

Explain why it's good?

Shadows 03-21-2006 06:47 PM

I'm still waiting for a real reason as to why it's bad.

The cut shots to Alexi screaming and playing guitar were great, with the distorted effect and shifting angles. The lit banner behind the band made the stage look very epic while they were playing. The theme stuff (cops/chicks) only took up half of the video, but I'm neutral on that. It wasn't really relevant to anything but it wasn't bad. It's almost identical to Sixpounder when the woman was beaten and kidnapped for no reason - a cop tracks a guy down and takes him away, but no one knows why.

The cop/chick theme is very immature. The distorted scenes were cool, I did like those. They don't save it though. As said, it doesn't show Alexi playing the cool parts. It has nothing to do with the song.

Reasons enough?

Shadows 03-21-2006 06:51 PM

Enough. It seems to me that not liking it is one thing, but accusing them of selling out because you think one aspect was immature is a bit extreme.

Then again, I get really angry when people say bands sell out, no matter who it is.
