Flotsam and Jetsam-Doomsday for the Deceiver

[Europarazite]

Thrash til death

cheerz!1

[TRIPSPROPERTY]

listen to the middle of this song this is wat got me in to these guys befor any1 ever heard of them his voice is off the scale! and the change is so ,,,,just listen if a head banger you know!

[1stRedfly]

Such a great band

[tyrannicoystercult]

kinda reminds me of Fozzy haha

i love the double-kick parts of the song though very heavy in those brief parts. got a nice heavy drum feel like Goat Horn

[Koki321]

Sounds like Legacy in the begining from Testament

[comaofsouls]

best metal song ever

[dc17commando]

This sounds kinda like Sanitarium.

[veggiedinner123]

@dc17commando

Sorry to pull you up over a 3 month old comment but could you explain? I don't hear sanitarium in this at all :)

[dc17commando]

@veggiedinner123 At the very beginning, the acoustic part reminded me of it.

[Rosebud601]

I still go to their house every couple weeks<3 great family and Ed Carlson is my friend's dad.

[Rosebud601]

I'm an ex-gf of Eric's (singer) son(: hehe I love Eric lots he's like muh 2nd dad!(((:

[jason3890z]

newstead is such a cool dude but what did these guys(flotsam)do to him cuz he never looked back when he left and doesnt associate anything with them?hmm.

[1stRedfly]

Flotsam is cranking,to bad the crowd is lame as shit....except for who taped this!

[Kemet09]

Jason Ward with long hair!!!? That is a sight to see!! JW all grown up now!! Great job dude!

[AngelCast1975]

This song I listened when I was tennage (in 1995))and i really feelt good... Regards from San Luis Potosi Mexico...

[applephone]

matehuala??? my family is from there jajajajajaja

[faxorocker]

the best song of flotsam and jetsam

This song appears in his better album homonym

[samanthanjosh]

is that album a import or somthing like that

[immortaltts]

the audience blows

[stevo1878efc]

These guys first two albums were fucking great! Do they ever venture to Europe on tour apart from festivals?

[Fretkill]

Not to mention Newstead wouldn't be able to play 90% of the material.

[Mrvahalla]

I primi 2 cd dei flotsam spaccavano e spaccano tutt ora!!!!

[firestream101]

is jason playing in this video?

[hellrazor1969]

Yes, its J. Ward

[shohom67]

Yep, that's him.

[MaxSeidel1]

@firestream101

You thought of Mr. Newsted, didn´t you? He wasn´t a member of faj while this was produced.(left some years before I think)

[GanjaPharmzor]

@MaxSeidel1 Wrong. Newsted left the band in 86' halloween, but the album was made in july if I recall correctly..

[MaxSeidel1]

@GanjaPharmzor ofc he was in the band when doomsday was produced, but not when THIS (the video above...) took set. It was an answer to firestream101´s question. (Would be strange if he could have left the band years before their debut-album, wouldn´t it?)

[skullkap1]

Can't wait for the new one! Super consistent band.

[Mulldarran]

I wish Jason would return to FAJ instead of dicking around in Voivod...

[uofm97]

After 20-plus years away, wouldn't it be kinda awkward to return to band in which he only played on 1 album?

[Mulldarran]

On which he created most of the music, including some of the best songs FaJ ever wrote.

Mem also joined Exumer after 20 years, that worked out fine for everybody.

Besides, who want to play in Voivod anyway? I'll take the Flots over them anyday.

[hellrazor1969]

Fuck Jason Newstead!!!! He was asked to help with the 20th Anniversary of Doomsday. He said no. I prefer Jason Ward playing bass anyways.He`s been in the band for about 15 years.Couldn`t see them dissin J Ward like that.

[Leadfoot570]

Amen!!

[thaton3gy]

@hellrazor1969 lol they asked jason for help over a guy thats been there for 15 years? what does that tell you? JASON NEWSTED #1

[hellrazor1969]

@thaton3gy Jason Newstead wrote most of that album thats probably the reason they invited him to help on the project!

[thaton3gy]

@hellrazor1969 Thats not a reason.

Megadeth is on the 20th Rust in peace tour right now. and they didnt invite Marty Friedman back for a tour. David ellefson didnt ask to come back into Megadeth either. it just happened.

[cubby3o5]

@hellrazor1969 so you hate Jason but you like Jason?

[quierodoritos]

i wish he went back to metallica, he has the best backing voice

[WilliamGH1337]

underrated band

this is fucking good

[Persemb]

Wow, that's awesome. He can still reach the high notes. This song, or the entire Doomsday For The Deceiver is a BEAST!

[webmasterflots]

F&J are going to play two shows in AZ:

March 27th: Tuscon and March 28th: Scottsdale. Check their website for details!

I wish I could see them again! Their show at KIT festival in Germany was PERFECT!!!!

FLOTS TIL DEATH!

[kiskiriw]

they deliver... absolut power... they belong to the Great Thrash academy.... F&J rules...

[fretsofthebeast]

i think jason should of done the vocals....

he can fuckin growl

\m/ stay metal

[stenback31289]

believe it or not jasons voice actually blended in with erics voice on the album versions... if you listen carefully to the chorus in she took an axe you can pick him out

[tormenter54]

FLOTSAM &JETSAM OWNS!FTW

[meanmrmustad]

the singer is the shit!

[MegadethRustInPeace]

I thought it was, Watch The Children Pray at first

[dizazzter69]

these guys wrote some of the best intros ive ever heard on DFTD

[MetallicAddict15]

How did this not get proper recognition in the metal scene? The entire album kicks ass!

1:00 onwards is insane.

[666LordSatan666]

real thrash !!!!!!!!!11

[surgpath24]

I heard Michael is a DRYWALLER WTF!!!

[xurxo12]

Jason should join back to F&J when he left MetallicA in 2001. Great band, and awesome 1st album

[Thethingthatshdnotbe]

OK Boy's

Hit off the snake bowl and we are in

Many happy funn times hell ya nobody tried to hurt each other just family you like the band you are family ...what happened ???

HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE LLL YA!

[coastvl]

Doomsday was the album I used to get pumped when going out! It is the best metal there is. Love it.

[diejeffy]

toss me in the pit boys, im ready for the pain.

[pxannexda]

lol i know eric's son,(Eli) he went to my old school.

[voltronsky]

thrash = NFL and beyond

[soloist93]

Flots. A true metal icon, hands down. The fucking real deal.

[azrock4ever]

Agreed! I still have the EP cassette somewhere in a box which has all the stuff that never made it to vinyl/tape/CD. (pre-Doomsday for the Deceiver) It has The Beast Within etc. on it.

I saw these guys playing in a living room in Scottsdale when they were The Dogz. lol

Going to the way-back machine with that one.

ahh... metal in the 80s. No era like it.

[circlepitjoe]

wow its just ed and eric

[metalparasiempre]

yeah, once Michael left it was too different, but at least Eric, Ed, and Jason 2 are still there.

[circlepitjoe]

i c eric is still singing 4 them. is he the last member from the doomsday lineup?

[hellrazor1969]

No Ed Carlson is the other O.G. member.

[mentalfive]

Hey, I've never heard these guys before but I really dig 'em. What's a good album to pick up by them?

[hellrazor1969]

First buy No Place For Disgrace. Then Doomsday For The Deceiver. Then Drift. The rest in any order. Just stay away from High!!!!

[cluio]

I agree..no place for disgrace stands on top, then doomsday but I would'n t save much other...

[deluge71]

Good advice overall, although I disagree with your sentiments on 'High'. Do you really dislike that album? Despite being a fan since 'No Place...', I think songs like 'Monster' and 'Everything' fucking kill! Oh well...I guess we all know what opinions are like... :)

[hellrazor1969]

I do like the 2 songs (Everything is a classic!!!) you mentioned but the rest of that album is terrible!!!!

[deluge71]

That's cool...I respect your opinion, despite not being 100% on the same page. Glad to see that someone out there cares about F&J's music as much as I do.

[metalparasiempre]

Their first 5 albums are worth picking up

[Thethingthatshdnotbe]

I see the problem with my evil one eye just kidding ...

We all know this Jetsom rocks ...but why are they not playing bigger shows??

Hmmm we are small - the people who play this but let it out side like a good fart on hot summereday Yummy and Bang that Head!

[balonybopper]

the flotsams rule!! newstead is the best11

[martyjiunta]

Wrong Jason That is Ward in the video. I think Ward is better.

[gg1972gg]

to jest to -  thrash

[azrock4ever]

They just fucking rock! I will be a Flotz fan at 80 years old. It even sounds like they play it a little faster then it was originally. (if thats possible! lol)

[Aristomenis]

who cares about who did what this is an amazing song from an amzing album. Enjoy.

[ImperiledEyes07]

vascor is right but Jason's bass lines for Flotsam and jetsam are better than the ones he wrote with metallica

[johnmon]

@ImperiledEyes07 Totally agree bro!!!!

[zoidburg111]

jason newstead is a douche anyway,he went after money and left a band that was always better than metallica

[Vascor]

He didn't go after money, he went after a chance to join his favorite band.

[risethelightning]

vascors right dude

[Guitar11]

Yeah Vascor is right. Newsted says it in an old Metallica interview

[mandizzy]

bad song!!! One of the greatest metal bands!!

[greenfury87]

this is a great song. didnt know they still play their Jason-era stuff.

[Muytallica]

wow,that crowd sucks ass

[walawala78]

Lol agreed. They're like "they're playing fast, what do we do now?"

[Guitar11]

Hahahahahaha good one
