[TheJayman213]

sounds like paradise city.

[AtomicRichie]

Kinda sounds like Danzig at some parts

[Geekman333]

I've seen this guy live six times (in Australia). Best live performance I've ever seen, no lights, no gimmicks, just Henry and his rage. Fucking awe inspiring. Also seen his spoken word, articulate, insightful, wise, funny. Cheers Henry. You're an inspiration.

[skweetis123]

I met Henry, he was so nice. I hugged him and told him, "I love you, you're an inspiration to me. you kick ass for an old man!" He laughed and said thanks...I said, "I only say that because we're the same age"

[skweetis123]

@skweetis123 and the next day he blogged about meeting us. said he hung out and talked with some fans but all he could think about was getting on the bus and eating his soup. hahaha!!!

[billybobbeam43]

He IS Hot!!! Sexy as hell!--Jen

[angel071]

@billybobbeam43. Damn right!! =)

[rds13601]

My friend saw him casually in a bar an asked for his autograph. he explained we had saw him on the Black Flag In My Head Tour. He could have been a jerk. My friend didn't have any paper but a beer can. So Henry pulls out a sharpie and signs the beer can. How cool is that!!

[angel071]

@rds13601.  awesome story. i've met henry a few times and he's been super nice and will sign anything. he signed my heart a looong time ago lol.. ok that was corny >.<

[Chrisgodoflard]

He's pumped.

[krazytrain6773]

awesome song and video...thanks for uploading this video it was very well done

[AleksandrAleksan]

Thanks you for the video especially for monster song , I like him too!!

[idaho33100]

Henry looks alot like my boyfriend, which i hate!!! I love him somuch i hate him!

[AstrumAnimal]

One of the coolest dudes ever! Smart, fun, rocker, punk, poet Henry fucking Rollins. Woo!!

[angel071]

@AstrumAnimal.. you left out that he's uber sexy!

[aliasmiller]

@AstrumAnimal and a GREAT actor

[Thornton3862]

I go to FlirtyCams. O_R_G to date, 'n I think it is a amazing website for dating



[mrpwase]

Haha hey guys this kinda sounds like that song Welcome to the Jungle don't ya think ;)

[pawelzolynski]

@mrpwase there are monsters in the jungle :) ....

[CGBSpender1]

What a great song. I always have it blasting on my MP3 player when I lift at the gym.

[carnagetour]

riff sounds like paradise city! hahaha

[DomCrathern]

Doing damage sounds like fun!

[nipple2nipple]

this man is a god!!!

[ERICARTMAN92]

Thumbs-up if u saw Feast, or if u think a Feast montage would have been more appropriate.

[kikemaniaco]

...Paradise city?%&*!!!

[UmadLoL]

Definitely a better actor than singer... His music makes me laugh hahaha

[mcdrunkin]

@UmadLoL then I feel you can only listen but not hear Hank

[straightedge442]

@UmadLoL You're one fantastic troll. You might not even have to find a purpose in life you're so good.

[UmadLoL]

@straightedge442 Mad because i'm stylin on you. Get on my level kid.

[straightedge442]

@UmadLoL Haha yeah ok.

[straightedge442]

I'm even more deeply concerned for humanity if someone took the time to create a profile called "umadLoL" and endlessly spew shit over the internet.

[UmadLoL]

@straightedge442 That's a capital U to you. Again, get on my level son.

[kinsag]

2:51 Steve Stiffler after 20 years

[yermomdotcom1]

Hank for President.

[lllitrehead]

wots with the gay photo shoot?

[rottenflowers1978]

2:36 "You touch me so deep inside". Well, i get the feeling :-). Henry is so amusing after all that heavy load of existentialistic stuff.

[grumpiking]

Rollins will monster your face off!!!

[angel071]

omfg.. enough with the paradise city references!! really... ppl dont read comments.. its been done to death.

[nate04ng]

this rif sounds very similar to paradise city by gnr

[jenniferswe]

I may not agree with everything that Henry says but you can't deny his talent. Also, you have to admire his courage to speak his mind as freely as he does.

[fabalee15]

The riff is PARADISE CITY from Guns n Roses!!!!!!! Henry is a thief!!! hahahaha

[DontShakeItUp]

@fabalee15

@nate04ng But Paradise City's riff sounds like Black Sabbath's "Zero The Hero"'s riff.

[RealGoneDame]

@ Tjomnij ... I'm guessing you must be very young to not know the Henry History... he's a legend in a Frank Zappa kinda way... he is definitely not one of many... he is among the first of many.. and he is awesome ... Black Flag is maybe more enjoyable to me.. but I do enjoy his spoken word stuff too...

[Tjomnij]

@RealGoneDame

bla-bla-bla...i got it,enjoy of it...

[kalzavara]

this song is good, but the riff is the same of "Paradise City" of G'N'R....

[Zombie1990]

Im a big fan of Henry's, but this song totally rips off Paradise City.

[unlockthepower]

@Zombie1990 Yeah it does but it's still awesome

[UFCfanboy7898]

@Zombie1990 how the fuck do you hear that?

[Zombie1990]

@UFCfanboy7898 The riffs sound similar. If you don't hear it then don't sweat it. Just enjoy the music.

[InuvikPhil]

@Zombie1990

The riff is exactly the same as the breakdown in "take me down to paradise city" by Guns & Roses

[xdavidx0326]

man does anyone else think bands like terror and cruel hand got there inspiration from this guy

[TheXivir]

0:35 LoL O.O

[LOSTPRATT63]

whats great about henry he can wipp you ass in a philosophical debate or just wipp your ass.

[AmericaDevil]

This sounds like it's trying to be a Danzig rip-off.

[gsh73la]

@AmericaDevil They're both from the same era and played together

tut tut *rolleyes*

[AmericaDevil]

@gsh73la Yeah, but it's not like they sounded anything like this in the 80's.

[Sjawo]

Hooligan Music :-()

[JayMann620]

I'm not gay in the slightest, but I would totally let Henry Rollins have his way with me.

[BeezleBoy]

He kinda looks like Jim Carrey.

[poolboyinla]

wtf

[ville198]

The main guitar riff reminds a little bit of paradise city by guns and roses. cool song!

[beelz667]

dudes out there, i gotta admit that henry rollins IS hot. and im a guy

[rds13601]

Saw Black Flag in 1986 on the In MY Head tour at the Lost Horizon bar in Syracuse N.Y. The best show ever!!! Rollins ruled!!!

[Tjomnij]

what so special about him,realy? i kind a like his music,but hi's just one of many,i think

[angel071]

@Tjomnij.. Henry is awesome for many reasons: He's hot, talented, honest, funny, hot, original. Need I say more.. he's the total package.

[AmericaDevil]

@angel071 Sounds like you just want to fuck him.

[angel071]

@AmericaDevil... uh.. yeah ya think!

[TheGzeus]

@angel071 While Henry's not my type, I _do_ think that if I'm work at doing what he does in a general sense. You know, working at art and the self, getting real life experiences in order to be closer to awesome.

Nice guy, too. Ever email him? He answers if you send stuff other than drivel.

[angel071]

@TheGzeus: No I've never written to him but I have met him about 3-4 times. He's very cool in person. Polite and easy going. I was too shy to really talk to him but got his autograph. I know he wouldnt like me so I never bothered to engage in a serious conversation.

[TheGzeus]

@angel071 Oh nonono! Henry already likes you! He defaults to believing that people are ultimately good, and wants the best for everyone, but he also knows that the only way to get anything done is to _DO IT_ full-force.

So crank up 'Low Self-Opinion', rock yourself into a frenzy and do something that makes you feel good about yourself.

I get down on myself all the time, but I do my best to fight through it. I know you can. Henry would say the say the same.

Mail him, ask advice. He gives it.

[kozer1000hehe]

@angel071 I think you got a low self opinion girl!

[KharamiSunato]

@angel071 dont be a asshole, Henry would probably like you! but do you like you? hes probably more interested in people who like themselves! Hes also insecure like the rest of us, so he likes people, period. Its just my guess...Luise Hay has some books that help with soft courage and gentle healing. Also meditation and martial arts can be helpful for empowerment, Hypnosis is amazing for liking ones self. My Best To You~

[attila518]

@angel071 haha "I know he wouldnt like me". Your new favorite song should be Low Self Opinion

[angel071]

@attila518. I actually have adopted that song as my theme.. you're like 15 yrs too late with that advice lol.. omg i just looked and its 19 yrs too late.. oh wow i'm old >.<

[TheboredSkater]

@TheGzeus how do you email him, that'd be sick

[TheGzeus]

@TheboredSkater Just go to his site. His email is in the 'Contact' section.

[MsHate101]

@AmericaDevil Who doesn't want to fuck him?

[AmericaDevil]

@MsHate101 I don't.

[theNickRYG]

@Tjomnij Look up all his other shit. He sang in S.O.A. and Black Flag, he's also an actor, spoken word artist, comedian, and he's written some phenomenal books.

[ThePowerExcess]

@Tjomnij I see your point, what most of us admire in him is his approach on the goal you put in your life and what you do in order to reach them. He is allways doing stuff, never gives up and never gets tired.

[them4dhatt3r]

@Tjomnij whats special about Rollin's is that he would respect you more for that opinion then the poser followers that don't think for themselves....Rollin's fucking hates social tools, a true free thinker

[heresdabeef]

@Tjomnij Rollins is the definition of "Renaissance Man".  I suggest reading The Iron. It's pretty badass.

[Beatnikzombie]

@Tjomnij Because he's brilliant and on our side. If he's not on your side, you're on the wrong side.

[JayMann620]

@Tjomnij

The reason why people think he's so special is simply because he is. He has no time for self pity or self loathing, he has no time to doubt himself and he believes no one should feel that way about themselves. His songs are usually (from what I've heard) about trying to get you to come to a self realization or an epiphany that will come to a better understanding of ones self.

tl;dr His songs are about being honest with yourself

[gsh73la]

@Tjomnij *looks at faves*

Well, he's not the hot topic kitsch type, so maybe that's why you think that way ?

Isn't there a hot topic and shit post-post-but-still-from-yeste­ryear-look "gawth", plus crap anime channel somewhere for you ?

[gsh73la]

@Tjomnij What is someone with your taste even commenting on him ?

Most of your stuff is total adhd crap ?

Is that what you measure him against ?

LOL

[maggotfrom1993]

@Tjomnij i almost agree with angel071 but maybe you should check his one man show or him speaking. he's a wise guy

[spacemanGoldie]

@Tjomnij i kno what you mean, you need to explore his work. The guy is a thinker, an author, and great lyricist ever watched his standup raconteur act? he really is funny. He reinvented himself from a punk rocker into an art form. Plus he's written some great poetry, check out Black Coffee Blues I think it's called. Ya gotta love Henry!! He is cool - hey! he like Black Sabbath circa 1971 so he knows what is cool.

[vinnietheaka]

Paradise City

[jerseyjudoka]

We used to be the greatest land in the world. don't know what happened. Its nothin we can't fix! Henry Rollins for president 2012!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[brealsoul]

@Aggiechilds

the hardcore version of it. Hell, it sounds 1000 times better then paradise city lol.

[mefistofel3042]

Ahaha "Take me down to the paradise city"

Good using of great riff)

[MsHate101]

God i want me some of that!!!!! Get some go again!!!!

[MsHate101]

no i never got 2 see him on that show, i wish... but i heard alot about it! My husband always was watchin something else. :)

[angel071]

@MsHate101 go to sidereel.com and watch em for free

[MsHate101]

to me, Henry isn't just a spoken word, or a singer. 2 me he's a genious and the most sexiest man in the world, just the truth, he says how he feels no matter what and mostmen can't do that!

[angel071]

@MsHate101... oh ya.. u are soooo right.. Henry is a total fox and one of the most talented men in the world. I wuv him!

[MsHate101]

@angel071 hey angel071, Henry is the best and if other people can't see that then they are freakin idiots. Most men are jealous of him but i will listen 2 black flag and go 2 every spoken word untill im dead! Get some , get some get some ; go again!!!!!

[MsHate101]

Henry is the Hottest Man i've ever seen, been 2his spoken word and concerts, man he's beautiful and a genius!!!!

[angel071]

@MsHate101.. yep i agree, i'll love him til i die too. did u watch him on the Sons of Anarchy?

[InspectorMontelbano1]

What a kick arse song!!, Rollins at his best.

[mmmikeyxx]

FUK YES.

[ArnoldVeeman]

Take me down to the paradise city where the girls are green and the grass is pretty!!!

[TheVengefulTortoise]

@ArnoldVeeman - Can I assume you're referring to the similar riff? lol.

[ArnoldVeeman]

@TheVengefulTortoise yep

[M2490311]

Fuck yes.

[EpicAndredV]

usin some stuff off paradise city :P

[fnnichols]

sounds like paradise city 

[Eoinmoo4]

love it. but it sort of sounds like Metallica - Master of Puppets.

in the way he says "MONSTER, MONSTER!" and then also the lyrics after sort of goes like the way master of puppets goes! just sayin!

[vaggos74]

does he use the riff from paradise city - guns n roses?

[AMAURIS966]

@vaggos74 this song came out before that fucking song.

[vaggos74]

it sounds like paradise city guns'n'roses

isnt it

[talissin]

Thxx for posting footage, song and lyric.

[suchanjv]

@2:35 I crapped myself laughing, that's the funniest Henry pic I've ever seen.  Sooo not him!

[angel071]

@suchanjv .. i know right.. whats up with that hair XD

[002325]

@angel071 I think it was the pre-Black Flag days but don't quote me on that

[rhiannonband]

@angel071 He looks like Russell Brand in that picture!

[talissin]

@suchanjv in fact it's about the FIRST him.

[GypsyFairy69]

@such

That was a long time ago. He looked differnet back then.

[xxxmosh]

@suchanjv he was younge there

[RobCardIV]

er.

the tatoos sure look correct to me,

[Irrationalgaze1]

@suchanjv Hahahaha! The Calvin Clien days eh?

[ka1pc]

Damn!!!

[dsb100]

Play from the beggining and say the words :

take me down the paradise city, where the grass is green and the girls are pretty.

interesting.

[thirtypointer182]

it sounds like the Rollins Band doing it's best Danzig/GnR impression

[BeatBay]

@Aggiechilds right!!!! damn i thought minutes about "whats that riff" :D paradise city.. right . thx man :)

[westpsmity]

As a perfectly heterosexual male, I think I'm still in my rights to say that Henry Rollins is a fine physical specimen, and on top of that a beast of a musician.

[ebMagnum]

this is totally PARADISE CITY

[Kammerz10]

Fucking BAD ASS! Love the wicket tats. Doesn't matter if he's not that big, he's buffed.

[HAFA74]

5'9" maybe 185Lbs at his heaviest? Glenn Danzig is about 5'4" btw

[BUSSMEKRA]

@Aggiechilds YEAH really sounds like paradise city!!!!

This song is far from the best Rollins song one of my favorit is "disconnect " from the album "weight". Peace.

[IMTheDorkLord]

1:24 for the WIN

[Blood666junkie]

bang your fucking head

[allen770]

Great assemblance of old & new pix! Very impressive. I really got a lot of new . . . umm . . . "info" from it (???) Thx, angel071

[BenHalbroe]

Not bad... and now I know, why I get this deja vu feeling, when I hear the guitar riff in the Verse. It's pretty much like Guns 'n' Roses' Paradise City.

[co5bass5]

rawk!

[CimpoIlRozzo]

OH Crap... It sounds too much like Paradise City...

[ppflomen]

@CimpoIlRozzo And a little bit of Master of Puppets ja. Still, great song.

[theblackdiegamurder]

IM A MONSTEER!

[TheAxecutioner]

Is there any one cooler than Henry Rollins !!? I mean really ?

[diNOalbaneo]

brian molko, lol

[iamsosquid]

Nope.

[alejosoini]

wow, youre right. thats the same riff from paradise city. there is a thief among us. speak up!

[packysmatt21]

hey, no matter how hardcore you think axl is, rolling could always kill him

[SOYUNPINCHEBOY]

fucking gnr

[SOYUNPINCHEBOY]

I miss melvin gibbs, chris haskett, sim cain.

[gobbel600]

@Aggiechilds hehe your right. Sorry. But its crazy how much its sounds like it right? Stille love Rollins. He's a legend.

[Aggiechilds]

I absolutely adore Rollins too, but man, couldn't somebody of pulled him aside during recording and said, "Henry, listen, about this song..."

[gobbel600]

haha sounds a bit like welcome to the jungle

[zazzyzulu]

i love rollins, but why is rollins band so much worse than flag?

[dannydanzig666]

@zazzyzulu i beg to differ they are both a- fucking-mazing

[angel071]

@zazzyzulu lol you kiddin'? Henry could stand still reading from the phone book and it would be amazing =P

[darylcatpiss]

my dads the funniest person in the world, he can make you laugh just reading the phone book,

Though he does do it with his cock out.

It gets a bit weird when he starts ringing people though.

[webb3ro]

Thank you for that.

[squarepox]

@zazzyzulu

With all respect, that is completley a matter of opinion. I love them both, but as a musician, I believe Rollins Band to be a much tighter, refined band interms of chops and songwriting.

[RaigeMe]

@zazzyzulu

Flag was more raw, Rollins band is still great, just more...refined?

Doesn't necessarily make it worse, just not the same.

[MrChents]

@zazzyzulu no greg ginn

[reductio1]

henry rollins, iggy pop and john lydon..

who the fuck can equal that ???

In 2010 whe will have : lady gaga, britney spears , timberlake and some guy singing about who's....

FUCK FUCK FUCK !!!!! what have we become!! ?

[berdoDRUNK]

no dude what have they become?? not us it is thinking like that ......thats where punkrock came from

[motherbrain86]

@reductio1 i feel the utter pain, when i establish my career in the music industry instead of just killing lady ga ga off i am going to brainwash her and make her do really avant garde pornos and make bands cover captain beefheart

[ktsnowrider]

@reductio1 Ugh, shut up

[gremlin986]

@reductio1 you couldnt be more right

[aguamaniac]

@reductio1 a right bunch of drips.

[DSwifty86]

ROLLINS 4 LIFE

[7thFallFromSanity]

He sounds the same in EVERY song of his :P

[BPRenewal]

@7thFallFromSanity who the fuck else is he supposed to sound like?

[figgoagogo]

rollins is GOD

[OldSmellyCrotch]

Interesting the title "Monster" is also the legal definition of a "Human Being". Well, actually it says:

Human Being:- See 'Monster'.

[IdaSputum]

Well noticed -- aint it the truth so often

[oleyullah]

in the first part riff is similar to 'Paradise City' G'n'R

peace

[coasttoast]

too bad they Jax's killed his ass in SOA!

[Sluti]

his character was a racist nazi prick so he got what he deserved.... it's a pity that he didn't play another son of anarchy... because at least someone would look as a motorcycle rider :-)
