Deadlock - Martyr To Science

[DeathcoreDreams]

I adore this band dearly....

[Necoros1]

the clean vocals are absolutely amazing in this

[consciousvoice63]

So guys and girls this song is directed toward the ''scientists'', soldiers, and laboratory workers who test on animals to get experimental results from animals so that HUGE companies could profit off the products we buy from them.

How fucked up this?

[consciousvoice63]

Deadlock crafts their lyrics as to put you into the mind of the person doing these horrible, atrocious acts to animals and humans. It's shocking.

Just keep reading their lyrics more than once, and you'll link onto a corrupted mind.

[wifflum]

I don't hate all scream vocals; it's just the VAST majority of them are the same note repeated, then a change to another note and repeat that one for way too long. Many vocalists only have one or two of these notes in their whole repertoire.. it's pathetic. All music can only be skillful if there is variation and intricacy in it.

On second listen, the balance between the two is very good. Just one or the other would... be less. I just don't like how they take turns; together at once is better.

[BetrayalsOfficial]

You know its creepy, his voice in the beginning of this song sounds exactly like Angela Nathalie Gossow

[dininelbourne]

@BetrayalsOfficial

I can hear that completely. haha

[russianviking25]

@BetrayalsOfficial

my thoughts exactly!

[wifflum]

Pretty excellent guitar.. very good singing.. and as, usual with this music, horrible and monotonous scream vocals that ruin it.

[BetrayalsOfficial]

@wifflum Then dont listen to it! Screams add flavor. Music is music. There is many kinds of it. You dont have to like screams.

[russianviking25]

@wifflum

in my opinion the scream is perfect and the singing ruins the song

[WindsOfPestilence]

@wifflum You could simply express a distaste for screams, rather than being judgmental of the vocal style, if you can even truly call it that.

[wifflum]

@WindsOfPestilence Let me quote myself and announce your failure at the same time: "I don't hate all scream vocals"

If I had a distaste for screams, I would express it. I don't, as I said with the first words of my comment. I have a distate for monotonous, emotionless repetition in all vocals, but it happens iiinnncredibly often with scream vocals. See 'Dark Tranquility' to learn what scream vocals can be, with skill and emotion infused.

[WindsOfPestilence]

@wifflum I didn't state that you hate "all" scream vocals. As this comment was directed to this video specifically. I can't account for your tastes out side of this video. You misunderstood me, that's your own fault. This is your failure. As well, I'm familiar with Dark Tranquility. Just another mentally disabled reject.

[TawNyandG]

Love it!!

[darthnegate]

Apart from their awkward bangs and giant foreheads, i fuckin love Deadlock xD

[TheBrinkOfMadness]

This is the only song I like by these people, but its pretty effing badass.

[Coolestgoose]

They are ok, cant say I like the girl singing.

To each his own.

[poopchestxyz]

Oh god everytime someone says screamo I strongly consider gift wrapping C4 on their doorstep

FAIL TROLL IS FAIL

[Owend90]

@poopchestxyz But with an aggressive response like that you have fallen for the troll :P

[veganjustice]

this song is about anima abuse in science experiments . Vegan Straight Edge Band.

[ChainLocked]

Sick guitar.

[SycamoreHill14]

This sounds more like nu-metal than Melodic Death Metal. I want to like this band, but I haven't heard anything worth downloading yet. I've always liked the female clean vocals and death metal growl contrast. But there is no structure in their music.

[dingdangdueng]

In einem Monat kommt das neue Album :)

Ihr müsst mal in den Norden kommen!

[GGxBeast]

What's with Melodic Death Metal bands using clean choruses? Jesus. Thank god for bands like Insomnium, Mors Principium Est, Intestine Baalism and Engraved Dissilusion... I don't care how good her voice sounds, clean vocals have no business in MDM unless it's backing vocals, like Mors Principium Est - Pure.

[wanish54]

@GGxBeast It's a technique called beauty and the beast + this is more Gothic metal then MDM

and if u don't like it why bother commenting on the video

SO STFU and leave

[WindsOfPestilence]

@GGxBeast Thinking like that is what disallows diversity among metal fans, being so judgmental. As well, if there ever happened to be a sub-genre of metal that SHOULD use clean vocals, it would have to be Melodic Death Metal. Brilliant yet Melodic shredding accompanied by clean and tasteful vocals. My point is, MDM is the perfect sub-genre of metal to use clean vocals, since the rest of the sub-genres are littered with growls and the like. It's a nice reprieve.

[Shadyblast]

At 1:08 I understand "Suck dead Balls!" xD

[xSORROWxqc]

@Shadyblast it's some dead bugs ! but the first time me to i understand suck dead balls lol

[ScienceOfSkullFuckin]

@Shadyblast I heard it too lulz

[donteatpaper]

The contrast of Sabine's voice and the death growls perfectly compliment each other, like light and dark. Anyway, amazing song, amazing band.

[gergaginflopple]

Why does no one get the concept that Screaming doesn't equal Screamo?

That having been said. Deadlock kicks ass.

[TheRedMan2550]

they would be alot better without the screamo dead voice guy in the background

[dmwmm]

hate the screamo but the woman's voice/part is amazing

[metaler551]

I would headbanging now but yesterday was Dark Tranquillity in Cologne so I can't :(

[ShadowofPossession]

I freakin love that part at 3:26 when the breakdown continues but slows down a bit. It's just awesome.

[psicosis91]

such beautiful music

[Enemyofsonny]

Love her Voice <3

[satan1234504]

from which country is this band?

[headbangergermany]

@satan1234504

germany, man!

[araos123]

i saw them at darkness over x-mas 2009 in pratteln (CH)

and it was fuckin awesome!!

[Bitrebarn]

this song is about pills and other scientist testing on animals :)

[blackferm]

@Bitrebarn Funny how Martyr is style death, not every song they make is about saving animals.

[kingofkakuni]

かっこいい

[intimatethinker]

When r they coming out w a new album?

[isolateslowfaults]

I wish more American hardcore bands would have the melodic singer be more epic and beautiful like this rather than teenage whiny males. Perfect counterpoint to the scream. And the lyrics are fucking gorgeous.

[arghydoodles]

What do I do... that guy to the left of that chick with the hat looks like my brother.

[arghydoodles]

@arghydoodles What's his name/instrument? lol

[BlueEyedFiendSS]

@arghydoodles that's their old bassist Thomas Huschka

[intimatethinker]

the growl of his really isnt that bad after a while.

[LeadGRuaidri]

3:50 is the most epic breakdown in the whole song.

[danaleks29]

@LeadGRuaidri that would be a solo lol

[LeadGRuaidri]

@danaleks29 for fudge sake..doesn't matter...

[danaleks29]

@LeadGRuaidri haha sorry just wanted to point it out

[reaper437]

yo this band is sick

[RogueSlayer]

All life is sacred on earth and should be treated as such, the fact that people have such little regard for animal life is heart breaking.

Animals feel pain too and we shouldn't ignore that. The way we treat those smallest among us reflects how advanced we are as a society and as a race we aren't very advanced...

[Blackheart11249]

Such a good song!

[JodieSavesTheDay]

Deadlock.. wow. x

[RICKYFALL]

Sabine is such a great singer!

[Felipemg1988]

Beautifull Deadlock 1000000000000% great i love is band !!!!!

[paramoreblows]

Who the fuck cares that much about animals

[PrinceTidusx]

yeah whitechapel is nice to

[Butterfinger109]

i think vegans should not be vegans

[KleinsteWGderWelt]

@Butterfinger109 it's yout opinion, but can you explain it or was it just a comment for fun?

[Butterfinger109]

well i mean, its their choice, but i honestly don't see the point in it, whats wrong with eating meat? They eat meat in the bible but nowadays, everyone seems to think that all meat is murder..... and now i have a question....... why don't vegans drink milk and eat dairy products? I actually want to know, not for an argument, but because i am curious.

[poiuytrew2]

@Butterfinger109

The dairy industry is a branch of the animal enterprise industry. There is still a GREAT amount of exploitation and suffering involved in dairy production. Also, as vegans, we do not view animals as commodities to be used and discarded like products. The dairy and egg industry is antithetical to animal rights theories. Also, once dairy cow are abused and used to the point where they are longer productive, they are slaughtered.

[RSevlp45]

@poiuytrew2 What I believe is that those animals have much less intrinsic value than people (if you could either choose to save a man or a cow from death, you would certainly choose the man), and therefore their life ends up to have very few value, compared to men. If it is needed several rats to find the cure for cancer or aids, than I am completely ok with it,

[RSevlp45]

@poiuytrew2 since the life of those rats has much less of a value the life of the human beings that will die of those diseases until the cure is found. Anyone who disagrees with this follow this idea: if the people who you love the most dies with cancer because experiments with rats aren't allowed anymore, how would you feel? "Well it was worth it"?

[Altaiir91]

@RSevlp45 Why do you think your life has a greater value than the life of an animal?

[RSevlp45]

@Altaiir91 I already said that if someone can only choose to save from death a man or an animal, rationaly and logically, he/she would choose the man.

[Altaiir91]

@RSevlp45 So why dont choose people on death row? Think, if someone would have to choose to save a Serialkiller or his dog from death I am very sure he would choose his dog. So you cant think rationally. I am sure that there are many people in the world who love animals much more than other humans.

[RSevlp45]

@Altaiir91 It's OBVIOUS I'm not talking about serial killers, I'm talking about average people! If an evil genius would give you the choice of saving your pet's life or someone you don't know's life, would you be selfish enough to choose to spare the life of the pet??

[RSevlp45]

@Altaiir91 And yes, there are people who like animals more than people, those are called fundamentalists or extremists, those either isolate themselves from the outer world or become some sort of terrorists, it's not the kind of mentality any person should ever have.

[DarkCrusader7]

iam with u

[LongGreenSocks]

these guys are amazing her soft voice goes great with his low rough voice

something i thought might not work but i was so wrong these gus are amazing

[slywsf]

Great mastering! \m/

[DanielSherrer]

They have Vivid traces of Technical Death metal. They're a mixture of sub genres. This girl has a great voice with some very talented musicians standing behind her. The guy has a very deep destructive growl that compliments her high pitch melody.

[Ozren92]

@DanielSherrer I agree, the growl alone is not that good.

[benbird28]

@DanielSherrer  well spoken

[neobrajatu]

If it should be that there really-really has to be music about animal testing, global warming and stuff, for heaven's sake, it shouldn't be death metal. Death growls, epic guitar and free Willy wtf is that? It's really making me cringe whenever I think of it. Rock lyrics should be either esoteric, either brutal, either about inner states. It's definitely cacophonous to use awesome, aggressive to convey the principles of George Clooney.

[Sion6]

@neobrajatu Oh, get over it. People can sing about whatever they want. They obviously get the animal rights stance from a Hardcore influence. They're probably big fans of Earth Crisis.

[iMiNdIeDeAdOnArRiVaL]

@neobrajatu Deadlock is not a cliche, if that's what you're looking for..

[neobrajatu]

@iMiNdIeDeAdOnArRiVaL ha-ha, like there's anything more cliche-ic than environmentalism nowadays. i've heard this kind of mesage so many times that it's enough to make me throw up. how could i possibly appreciate death metal that is tainted by this mainstream ideology? think about it, surely you're as intoxicated with all this new-age-morality crap, it's everywhere you turn. do you really want to hear it again and this time through death growls and thundering guitars?

[iMiNdIeDeAdOnArRiVaL]

@neobrajatu if you think of it, they really are writing about inner states. The idea that you need only be good to humans(like racists think they need only be good to whites etc). Think of this as sung by evil monsters that mutate people-exactly what is happening in animal testing-for their own needs. So they're writing of evil and inner conflicts with their conscience. I'm not environmentalist- I'm just against harming innocents

[neobrajatu]

@iMiNdIeDeAdOnArRiVaL you seem to have an untold reason to defend this band against my opinion, and that's fine by me. i can't deny the truth in the message, i just don't want it in my experience with this sort of music. however, i do need to mention that a lot of occupations, including mine at the moment, have a negative connotation, but they are necessary jobs nevertheless. that applies to animal testing as well. we wouldn't have that if it weren't something in some ways useful.

[iMiNdIeDeAdOnArRiVaL]

@neobrajatu untold reason? I love deadlock, big mystery:) looking forward to a world where we can take care of our necessities without harming innocents..

[BetrayalsOfficial]

@neobrajatu We could live fine and even better! If animals were left alone. Theres tons of alternatives for food. We dont need to test all out stupid things we desire on animals. Look up Vegan...Oh and this is coming from a kid.

[ssj7warrior]

@BetrayalsOfficial You would have to eat a wide range of plants to obtain the amounts of protien needed. We are able to eat meats so why not eat meats? Aren't plants people too? After all, they are living creatures.

[consciousvoice63]

@ssj7warrior''You would have to eat a wide range of plants to obtain the amounts of protien needed.''

Have you researched it yourself, or gone by your simple judgment.

[ssj7warrior]

@consciousvoice63 Yes, I have researched it myself. I don't talk about something til I have studied it. And if I happen to be proven wrong in a constructive manner, then I smile because I have gain more knowledge. But, what makes you think that even my judgement is simple? Do you have grounds to decide/confirm the quality of my judgement based upon a subject conserning knowledge?

[CyberPieProductions]

@BetrayalsOfficial humans are omnivores, means we need to eat a balance of meats and plant matters to get the nutrients we need, plus meat is yummy, some nice bloody steak, mhmmm

[consciousvoice63]

@BetrayalsOfficial Those two posters are too caught up with their on paradigm that can't push themselves to look up the research.

I agree with what you said in this comment.

[DeathcoreDreams]

@consciousvoice63 Thanks (: They dont know nothing sadly /: (New Accounts BTW)

[Nelisje91]

@neobrajatu So you want them to be "alternative like all other metal bands"?

Wait, that's a pardox.

[HendriksNo14]

great :D

[modejackan]

vegan metal

[Taschentuchbenutzer]

Its melodic death

am i right?

awesome voice

[paganoverlord]

id say its a mix between melodeath, and technical death.

[peachrocker1]

metalcore happens to be louder than heavy metal

heavy metal is just repetitive

[lanesytacct]

no it isn't look at manowar or dio :D

[Risenshinenfall]

That is not only inaccurate, but also very ignorant.

[purekezia]

@peachrocker1

[purekezia]

stfu u cleary dont know shit bout heavy metal if u put it that way

[Kdrumsx]

ummm no

[blazingeternity2012]

the whole band is vegan, all their lyrics are about veganism. i think vegan metal is a fitting label.

[Kdrumsx]

or  "metal" that just happens to have lyrics about being vegan. although "Vegan Metal" is very unique :]

[arrestedshrimp]

whats a vegan? is it someone who only eats non diary products and vegtables

[blazingeternity2012]

no animal products whatsoever. mostly just fresh produce. a vegan is an extreme version of a vegetarian.

[BlueEyedFiendSS]

why does the stereo "flip" regularly throughout the video? (listen carefully)

[NokiZecke]

Love the self made logo in the picture :D

Was it made with paint? :D

[fettmaussupergott]

@TDGIHEAY do u here the real singing voice from the singer listen Dying Breed

[ineqvation]

@fettmaussupergott Nope, that's not Joe Prem singing, it's Christian, former vocalist of Scar Symmetry.

[fettmaussupergott]

ts nope

[TDGIHEAY]

honestly i think this band is at their best when they let the girl sing, with back up screaming

instead of the screaming being most of the song besides the chorus

[lawsi]

yes especially in thousand suns .. breaks my heart

[lanesytacct]

now its more the girl tbh..... i like this

[ineqvation]

So true.

[gregory101010]

perfffect!

[xmcuberx]

this is why i love germany.

[dbz624]

[HxCKID8000]

Sickest song of their album!

[BlueEyedFiendSS]

"Fire At Will"

[ineqvation]

It's a guest appearance, but yeah, it's there. Plus the rapping in Deathrace. They certainly aren't afraid to experiment.

[Relick666]

Love these fucking riffs!!!!!!!!!! \m/

[XxDeadl0ckxX]

I love the first 45seconds

[madgsus]

Definately one of their top5 songs, with code of honor, the brave / agony applause and dark cell! Great songs all of them!

[DrumEagle]

i agree!

[ChildofBodom608]

[DillonPatton]

Awesome song.
