Skinny Puppy "Haze" SPV

[dNi964]

this is the sound of matured and enlightened musicians..not mainstream crap.

[RussX5Z]

Why is Skinny Puppy using auto-tune?! This sounds similar to today's crap?! WTF?! Nivek Orge has really losted it! In fact music has really losted it! Its fuckin DEAD!!

[hellchild65]

@RussX5Z auto tune was used back in the 70's by rockers....you do realize that, right? its not something recently invented, grow up

[chrishouchins49]

I am loving this alot but it is just SO different from prior stuff! This is an example of how a band had balls and went with their gut! It worked out well for them as far as I'm concerned.

[BlutigEngel]

Loooove this song. :) Loving the video, too!

[MsDonCarleone]

BEST

[entitymodeltanyamari]

no thank you i am happy with this skinny puppy

[HYPNOTIKINFEKTED]

One of the best pieces of ART ever made...

[Zombiesupremacy]

saw em in cleveland. best show ive ever seen and ive seen alot. they are the greatest musicians to ever live.

[YuushaKaiser]

this song kind of reminds me of Fever Rays music :0 love it.

[Headsetjones]

...I really should have saw them in concert when they were here in GA...

[WhiteStarCyanide]

This song is Phenomenal!!!

[kwaal]

I guess theyre more post-punk... They hated being referred to as "goth" - Though the most "goth" thing you can do is get up in arms about being called a "goth band"

Still one of my favorite bands though.

I also suggest Rowland Howard of The Birthday Party's later band These Immortal Souls - it's definitely more in line with the 80s goth rock sound.

As for The Sisters Of Mercy, with a few exceptions, I only ever really got into their first album, which is always a staple on my mp3 player.

[icetwizzler]

I still don't understand what this song means..

Can someone message me it so I can understand please?

[TwiFreak10711]

im in this vid im the one with the sled, at the end see if u can find a mysterious bag of doritos being eaten by the hungry chilren..... 0.o

[splicerslayer129]

this song is like cradle of filth gone tecno kinda hahaha

[PigunTheCarnifex]

Sorry, but I respectfully disagree. This song is not piss-drenched "black metal".

[splicerslayer129]

hahahahaha u make a good point

[kesbetik]

SP is SP so they will always be a little ahead of their times, no wonder some of us who prefer the old SP will take this as an insult to 'real' Skinny Puppy with Goettel. Check out the ZEITGEIST movement and the VENUS PROJECT if not yet done so!

[JacKinTheBoX242]

whats ZEITGEIST movement and the VENUS PROJECT ??

[spadehatesscrewtube]

who the hell rated you down for asking a question? uh, hi government.

[JacKinTheBoX242]

idk i blame republicans trying to censor my words

[JacKinTheBoX242]

who the fuck rated you down for your curiosity of the govnerment??

[spadehatesscrewtube]

someone with a very poor sense of humour. maybe it WAS the govt :P

[NecroWhore]

They're documentaries about how Jesus is not real and 9/11 was a conspiracy. The second one is about the federal bank system ( I think). Pretty good docs. Everyone should have at least one view.

[stryap]

Хороший сонг и видиоряд!Круть!!

[StopTheFaggotry]

Anybody remember back when Skinny Puppy didn't suck? According to my estimates, it's been seventeen years. That's sad!

[doctorwhonico]

Great song from a great album. The more I listen to it, the more I like it.

[splicerslayer129]

same

[ChordOfSouls]

I personally enjoy this album more than any other. It has the perfect balance of grit and beauty. I absolutely adore it. Songs like Haze, Jaher, and Pasturn especially send chills down my spine. Very powerful.

[jimxevil]

Hey, Skinny Puppy WAS, IS, and ALWAYS WILL BE a visionary band. True fans don't bicker amongst themselves.

Oh, and I'm loving the video.

[illbeyournobody]

one of my favs !!!!!!

[shotgunenergy]

ur all conformists suck it

[ExpandsInWater]

ur all confor...

heeeeey, wait a minute! you tricked me!

[gadoaguam]

dude go smoke a fat one. i think its cool that their still around . enjoy it . if you dont like it kool. dont have to...ah fuck it. ill smoke the fatty and trip .

[DamnedYouFakers]

poser

[shotgunenergy]

was the poser for me or gadoamuam

[DamnedYouFakers]

you

[wykydsyx]

The musics not bad but its not one of my favourte examples of Ogres lyrics.

Album on the whole was pretty decent

[lotreamon01]

Where are the days of Rabies now.....

[ArcanVmXII]

Back with your Rabies album. All puppy albums are different.

[lotreamon01]

I'm a Skinny Puppy fan since the 80's,but this song is ridiculous.... The albums are different??? Well if you say so... :D

[LucidCharade]

Any idea who directed the video for this?

[AustinKronix]

hahah probably PUPPY...there might be someone's name labeled as the director but we all know who the real visionaries are...

[juNKBroTHERs]

come on guys, are we music lovers or category makers?

[rheejus]

You all don't know how to classify Skinny Puppy. Except for you, antivert, but you forgot to mention that lately they should be classified as electronic symphony, for the amount of instruments to make that broad a spectrum of sounds would take at least 30. Which brings me back to why it should be classified as electronic symphony.

[SilentCeremony]

Death feels like the butterfly....

[Rotkaeppchen08]

ich liebe das video...es ist so wunderschön und hat so ne wunderschöne Bedeutung!

[knaveofsouls]

Yes, Goth is a genre. Listen to Bauhaus or The Birthday Party or Death In June. Those are all bands that follow under Goth Rock.

[antivert]

Genres have no place in music now that record stores are dead.

[ArcanVmXII]

That doesn't even make any sense.

[ThusSpokeLazarus]

I am pleased by this song and this CD.

[kuruptsoul]

Skinny Puppy is SEXY!

[ravenwinter1]

i just gave this song a second chance...i didn't like the "digi-Ogre" voice at first...i reminded me of some gay ass cher song...i like it now though.

[Angelskingarden]

They were among the first industrial bands. If you really had to ask me, though, I'd call them visual artists. They went to a visual arts conservatory.

[antivert]

Skinny Puppy didn't really consider themselves industrial, and they described their music as "sound sculptures", not "visual sculptures".

[mrrinnen]

fuck art

lets kill

just beautiful

[ASP1S]

For your information - SKinny Puppy are actually fighting with violence - war, blood and death. They just use similar visuals. Check out the irony.

[mm4455kk]

There's no such thing like Goth music. Gothic is subculture of peoples who listen different type of music:

neofolk

dark ambient

industrial (mainly electro industrial)

metal (gothic metal, opera metal)

rock ( rock operas, j-rock, industrial rock, gothic rock, cold wave)

That's in general all main music genre that gothic cover.

[demogorgon1]

Skinny Puppy is pretty original in their genre but if a genre must be pasted on it I would say Industrial, especially having their first songs in mind. Mythmaker has more electronic influences then earlier albums but it aint that bad after all.

But it ain't gothic at all. Missings drums and heavy guitar sounds for that

[heroesytumbas]

gothic my ass, Skinny puppy sounds like skinny puppy, period.

[jamestheone333]

Please understand that Goth Music isn't growl metal.

Skinny Puppy is some of the best goth music around.

[bond0023]

SP are not goth, idiot

[shiiiitson055]

skinny puppy is like industrial...not goth dude

[tool619]

what the fuck? the last part of the song is the best part !! why do these bastards cut it away so that it could look more "mainstream?" Nothing against mainstream but these promoters shud really leave a great song as it is and concentrate on making the fucking video.

[karkynplague]

why not anything against the mainstream?!?! fuck  the mainsteam!!!

[BoobieTMV]

Great video.Mythmaker is super!

[Watttahaata]

Good song.

[neddychan]

Skinny Puppy is the only industrial band still at the edge compared to others.

[xxverde]

skinny puppy is awesome c

[demogorgon1]

This group started as mainly a Industrial band. A lot of different componists worked on this side project. A band who also helped with this project is Bahntier. Skinny putted a step later on with some more electro influenced wich are not that bad after all. Haze, Pedafly and UgLi are my favo songs of their new album.

[MistressAvalon]

When the 90's game most brilliant bands with seemingly endless potential went to hell or disbanded. Moral of this story.Don't sell out & DON"T DO DRUGS!!!!!!

[one01ctf]

i never thought puppy could put out a shitty album. needless to say i was quite surprised when i bought this.

skinny puppy is dead.

[kudasango]

the only difference between this and their other music is a the battlestar galactica voice they use sometimes. otherwise, this sounds like skinny puppy to me (though I'll admit, assimilate still pwns this to the max)

[ninetyninenails]

Skinny Puppy have done it again!

[howdyhoyo]

i just recently got into skinny puppy. i know its quite late in their career, but whatever better late than never. Anyways, i really dig their modern electronics as that old raw sound they used to put out. I also don't see how this band is gothic in the least

[kudasango]

look at their lyrics, look at pictures of them back when they started. just listen to their music compared to other industrial goth music (perhaps Velvet Acid Christ or :Wumpscut:) the goth element is definately there.

[Outlanderpsy]

Haze and Use Less are the best modern Skinny Puppy songs.

[limestoneman]

And PedaFly.

[chickenblaster]

This song really crosses the divide, between "The Process" album, which I hear subtle references to on "Mythmaker".

Yeah, the Vox really do remind me of the OhGR albums too!

[fartsmuff]

Great video, I'm not a big fan of some of their new shit but they'll always have my respect, I really like this video but the whole "electro" vocals really throw me off. Other than that I enjoyed the song.

[Daveyhavok28]

greatness <333

[WackyFun69]

Really, Skinny Puppy was NEVER goth, their music was believed to be gothic, but if you ever listened to the lyrics you would see they have more of a point than goth bullshit

[kudasango]

Have you ever looked at the lyrics from traditional gothic bands? somehow I'm doubting it.

[Chicomalosd]

I have followed skinny puppy from the beginning and been to the fuckin crazy concerts. This is just another orafice they are entering... they are brilliant!

[spadesghost]

brilliant choice of words, there :P

[LegledTrepteg]

Skinny Puppy in any form gets my total respect. They've come out the other end of the shithole and continue to make music and noise hardly anyone else, esp. in electronica, can shake a stick at. And this film is fittingly apocalyptic.

[halusky]

Well, I listened to Too Dark Park (amazing album), and I'm considering this one next. Mainly because I can't find too many tracks from Mythmaker online...;)

[Kelli69]

I didn't like Skinny Puppy until the Greater Wrong-reunion. I listen to their older material (Last Rights, etc), and it just doesn't do it for me.

I'm not a goth loser. Maybe that's why the "new" Skinny Puppy appeals to people like me that never gave them a chance before, and you nostalgic idiots can't get over the fact that you're favourite band isn't goth and they've grown up?

[Outlanderpsy]

No, they're just dieing.

Thanks to their new stuff mainstream losers are getting into SP.

[sodafanatik21]

Chief, if it wasnt for those "nostalgic idiots" Skinny Puppy wouldnt be where they are today. And whats wrong with goth? Huh? Cmon one fucking explanation.

Personally I think the older Skinny Puppy is better. Why? Because I like the way it sounds, but obviously according to you we must all be nostalgic goth fucks for liking the old Skinny Puppy rather then the new.

[spadesghost]

or maybe we lived the dream and you just don't get it.

or were too young to be there, in any case

i don't see anyone even SAYING sp is goth.

so maybe examine yourself and your objectives FIRST

before trying to downgrade everyone elses valid experiences

[spadesghost]

oh and lables are usually used for people to try to understand things.. so they can categorize and file them, who cares if you like something?

it's just good music if so, not "goth" or "industrial"

[haujobbperfect]

You seriously need to explore what goth music actually sounds like.. Pick up a Christian Death album and get back to the world if yer going to babble.

[kwaal]

I dont like Christian Death much. I'd suggest The Birthday Party for a good goth/post-punk band.

[MaThTrash]

shit - now it pop rock (( badly ((

[howdyhoyo]

hardly dude, its electronic as fuck though. i like it

[ProjectWyze0135]

I don't know what you are talking about.. I find this video to be a work of art.

[iamadarkman]

Nonsense. Everybody knows a video is no good if it doesn't have Jared Leto in eyeshadow crooning into a microphone.

[fedbymum]

This is nothing special.Hopefully they will soon do a vid that reminds of the videos that Tool does, that would suit their music great.And hopefully they will throw out Mark Walk and start all over with Rave.

[boo1love]

Ah, the song isn't too bad, but the video isn't worth watching a second time, in my opinion. Their recent albums are only useful as coasters...rs

[alexcostabile522921]

yea. i was there for the making of this video. it WAS a low budget video. my 15 year old friend did the make up and clothing. we prepared in a school gym. it sucked.

[Janzama]

Who cares? The video is still fucking awesome. The song is amazing. And I find it more than slightly odd that you have a friend that is eleven years younger than you.

[inquest]

See you on Hildesheim this summer!!!!

[suffix66]

bravo! BRAVO!parvo!

[rashreflection]

WHY DID THEY HAVE TO CUT OUT THE END?!?  That's the best part of the whole song!

Otherwise, though, this is good stuff!

[urimask]

yo pienso que skinny puppy son los mejores que existen en cuanto a la musica industrial espero que algun dia vengan a Mexico.

[iscleyva]

Ya somos dos, a lo mejor si juntamos otro mas nos hacen caso y por fin vienen a Mexico :P, jejeje

[Hyacinth89]

I miss their old low-budget videos with disturbing images & gore. This is too Hollywood-y. Pro-test was worse, so this may be a step in the right direction.

Their live performance was brilliant, though! Their videos may have lost their touch, but their live shows are great! I've been a SP fan since Too Dark Park.

[VictoriaLind]

Long live Skinny Puppy! This was great, I loved all the visuals and it pretty much touched me.

[xor444]

very appropriate for our world... but that's always been the point of SP anyway, right?

this video is VERY moving, considering it's only half the length of the album version. i was worried about that at first, but the worry didn't last long...

[FukaName0000]

I just seen them in Atlanta last week and they totally fucking ruled. Probably the best concert I've ever been to and that's saying something.

[kovacsur]

Weird, I actually preferred the original concept art to the completed video. This is still probably their best since Stairs & Flowers. Editing out the end of the song was the worst thing they could do, though. :(

[urimask]

great video i love skinny puppy

[tubeslicker]

sung by a speak & spell

[Healing2Suffer]

It's so easy to compare SP's new work to their older material, but all bands need to evolve and explore new musical horizons. I love all SP music, old AND new!

[feralboy101]

Amen ^^

[haujobbperfect]

Couldn't agree more. I still think they get a little cheezy here and there on the new stuff since the Process though.

[ebmNagash]

cheesy? I'd say ingenious. It's all there, you're just not seeing it.

[riley7]

Hauntingly romantic... it brought a tear to my eye. They will be in Phx tues....anyone goin?? Im 35 and dont look like a fan..but I really am..

[tattooedsean777]

I will be going.

[lonelydriverywea]

TIene razón el último gringo qliao,los antiguos videos eran mucho mejores!

Pero bueno,este video no es para nada malo,al menos no hicieron otra estupides como lo que hicieron con el video de Pro-test...jajaja

Ojalá algun día vuelvan a crear obras maestras como el video de Testure,worlock o spasmolytic.

[tsenkai]

old videos are sooo much better

[GrapesinJail]

yeah Joy! I was in in the video :)

[Blacksmallpox]

IDK, it seem great on the previews, but the video as it is, is just, not that great, BUT, if you mean it to be a tribute to Dwayne its nice, Im "old" and I like much more the old stuff, but the newest albums are not as powerful as "Bites" or "VIVIsectVI", the works still good, but not amazing as the old 1ndu57r14l days :´(

[kirschykaywb]

Sweet video. Those are pretty much all my friends =] and it was filmed at my property on the lake. fun stuff.

[realsangsara]

Beautiful...

[GothikElektra]

i don't think the puppies had anything to do with this - this is just a promo made by the record label. which is probably why cevin and ogre are NOT in the video. song is powerful - video is weak

[feralboy101]

Their site, which is maintained by the band, has had production stills and concept sketches up for weeks, my friend, leading me to believe they were involved in the video.

[AlexFictionFriction]

dahh why didnt they pick jaher for the vid, haze is ok but not great!

[Kandarian]

Vagina's

[HarlotBug3]

In all contexts, this video is perfect. Oposing symbols reap unifying themes.

[ckop6a]

ya lo vi por fin

[lemonkey]

Great song. Awesome show in Chicago last Friday. Wish I could see them again. Hoping for another DVD :p

[Davivd2]

I guess it's the old format of the albums that I miss the most. Half the album would be like a jam session instrumental and the other half would be some experimental vocal tracks. I also miss the way that they could produce some really clean sounding well produced songs and also have some really rough sounding improv stuff. The new stuff just does not have that aspect to it.

[danseXdecay]

This video really does get better each time you watch it..I think the significance of putting past relationships (whether it be love relationships, drug addictions and so forth)into past tense and living in the present is a withstanding concept..I'd rather see meaning to a video than just a bunch of breakdancing idiots trying to outnumber eachother.

[Davivd2]

I get your comment and you have a point. It's not really the absence of Dwayne that I am dwelling on. But I still feel that there is something that is missing from the band in their recent work. Since The Process I have not really heard any Puppy songs that I enjoy. I think the older stuff is great and Ohgr's solo stuff along with the KMFDM collaborations were great.

[Davivd2]

This was pretty boring both as a sonic medium and a visual journey. Skinny Puppy just hasn't been the same since Dwayne died.

[mkultra1982]

It's okay to think it's boring (I don't), but cEvin said Haze has been around since the Process, which is before Dwayne passed (R.I.P. Dwayne), so Haze could very well have been written by him... at least he would have helped create it. So, yeah... Plus, I don't think people should dwell on Dwayne's passing -- both of the original Pups are still among us.

[urimask]

great video and nice song

[JenovaXiu]

My favorite Mythmaker song!

[jahlumi]

nice job!!!... juxt*.....apsynth needs to wash more often.....go MM

[futuristlimited]

Worth the wait!

[foxhopper]

The new vid is great as well as the new album. It's good to see new material coming from the best in the business. Keep up the wonderfull work!

[bgtzxp9k]

¿Han visto los vídeos de bgtzxp9k ?

Have you seen the videos by bgtzxp9k ?

Avez vous vu les videos de bgtzxp9k ?

[XanatharEye]

Excellent!!!! ....You can definetly hear the Tear Garden influence....

[vxsixtynine]

Seems to me to be more of a backing video.

[Tothmacher]

Skinny Puppy is always has been and always will be the reason industrial exists! Even there worst work is better than anyone else's best! except Wumpscut :D

[greyishblue666]

OH!! You mean 'Siouxsie & The Banshees meets "Twitch" era Ministry'???? Motherfuck Wumpscut!!!! They're some mock-ass bitches!

[apsynth]

your an idiot

[mrrinnen]

amen to that brother!

[greyishblue666]

Skinny Puppy are a good band but they are fucking stupid for not playing their hometown of Vancouver, Canada. On behalf of all the disgruntled Vancouver industrial fans: "FUCK YO TOO, NIVEK & CO.!!"

Pssshh...Skinny Puppy Inc.

[zedius]

Ain't that the truth.

[insidious234]

That was awesome.

[MinatheAlleyCat]

I'm looking forward to the show in Tempe.

[Tothmacher]

eye will be there as well! look fer the guy with the giant Baphomet on his chest!

[9Lex9]

LOVE IT!!!!!

[11spasmodica11]

Umm... I am a rabid SP fan and everything, I am still pumped from seeing them live a few days ago, I have their symbol tattooed on my back... but I have no friggin idea what just happened there. Gave it 5 stars anyway bc it's SP... perhaps it will make sense later.

[sexypea34]

I am going to see them here in New Orleans this Friday. I'm so excited! The new album is good, but I really prefer their older stuff. Do they play any old songs on this tour?

[11spasmodica11]

I would say that most of the stuff they played was from vivsect vi but some from all albums- some new some old. Amazing show. They always are. Here is a spoiler vid with what they will play if you don't want to be suprised, the site won't let me post it so just search "skinny puppy mythrus tour @ the catalyst"

[sexypea34]

I'm so happy they will be playing some of the old stuff. Vivisect VI is one of my favorite albums! I can't wait till Friday. Thanks for the info!

[slushymermaid666]

Very subtle in a lot of places, almost too. But the concept was great; sort of a 'Lord of the Flies' theme which is respectable in itself. I'd say about a 7.7.

[neogeo13]

Skinny Puppy is a great band but their videos always leave a lot to be desired. It was fine when they had to pay for the video production out of their pockets but there is no reason for them to make amateurish videos anymore. All that said, I do prefer these bland vidz to some slick Hollywood crap.

[XanatharEye]

yea for real

[TheLastSister]

I agree with graveyard.  Its great.

[andrew45387]

the wagon and boat images are superb!

[CHKilroy]

Bah, they've shortened the song. :[

[AntiMusick]

I like it better than the last video

[squirrelness]

woo!

[icwater]

i want to love it as Skinny Puppy is my favorite band and has been for 20 years, but whomever you got to make the video lacks the skill, creativity, soul to give this song the visual impact it deserves. even if ya were on a really tight budget theres no excuse for this.

like i said i want to love it but i cant.

[graveyardx]

lots o' hidden shit to decipher... but as always great stuff from the guys!!

[mothman7]

Awesome!

[Tommuel]

Great!

[kleft]

this is well shit

[Destica]

Ethereal Dark Beautiful.

[onXflightlessXwings]

amazing
