High on fire - snakes for the divine

[saprando]

Sorry i liked it til he starting grunting like a troll. Fuck.

[metalmanjamer]

the intro is just tapping and its not hard

[metalmanjamer]

@metalmanjamer sounds awsome tho

[pencilpl0x]

@metalmanjamer it's not even tapping, just pull offs.

[metalmanjamer]

@pencilpl0x really?

[pencilpl0x]

@metalmanjamer yeah, that's how i play it anyway. like 7p0-5p0-7p0 etc etc.

[AlbertFisher119]

if an ass whoopin' had it's own soundtrack it would be from High On Fire

[ichavira1993]

i feel like if there was gonna be a this generations equivalent to motorhead these guys are knocking on that door.

[sharkboy85]

Music to ride a dragon to.

[Axellson]

I love this, but does anyone else feel like the vocals sound a little strange/loud on this album?

[WiiSpiela]

Metal over Matter

Todd and the book of pure evil :D

[MrDJmonster1]

METAL



[phantomhead100]

Sounds like thunderstruck from ac/dc in the begining

[RetributionAJones]

@phantomhead100

not really

[pesticide666]

So fuckin' bitchin'

[tonykaramp]

why to the related videos there is one with the title "5 gayest breakdowns"? WHY IS IT AT THE RELATED NEXT TO FUCKING HIGH ON FUCKING HIRE?

[derdenserr]

Todd and the book of pure evil made me hearing this song ^___^ epic song!

[rskimsey]

Who are the losers who disliked this? Saw these guys live a couple times. Great show.

[420Banghers420]

Aww Yeah, Todd and the book of pure evil!

[brisketpunch]

Conan! What is best in life?

To crush your enemies, see them driven before you, with a soundtrack by High on Fire.

[TheOpethOfMastodon]

@brisketpunch haha!

[N1GH7SH4D3L0RD]

2:40 That's how Chuck Norris does it!

[LilReaper608]

Rock will never die

[N1GH7SH4D3L0RD]

@LilReaper608 This is Metal

[xbruslayerx]

esse tbm é foda

[TheOpethOfMastodon]

i used to think Matt was nothing special at leads,but the way he unloads this solo that molds with the song so well has made me rethink my opinion :)

[DivergentRunoff]

This song made my balls drop. Again.

[deathkinggodfather1]

the chorus is fuckin EPIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[sleepiswrong667]

6 people need to be killed



[TheTASTY666]

If that intro was 45 minutes long, it wouldn't be a bad thing

[Raigeki135]

oh and also, if anyone does enjoy Matt Pikes voice like i do, then i consider you a TRUE metalhead, but for dumb stupid people who dont know what real metal is and hate Matt Pikes voice, well then you can all just go back to listening to your shitty ass wannabe metal bands Lmfao!!!!

[v4mp1r3]

@Raigeki135 Dude, Pike's voice is incredible! This whole band is just... fuck. So good man. I'm a huge High on Fire fan too. \m/

[Raigeki135]

@v4mp1r3 Fuck yeah man!!!! now that's what i like to hear!!!! lol

[Raigeki135]

I honestly hate it when people say Matt Pikes voice sucks, or he cant sing and has shitty vocals and blah blah blah, people are such fools these days and dont even know what real metal is, and yet people listen to really shitty bands like bring me the horizon and bullet for my valentine and try to say its real metal when all it is are a bunch of faggots yelling and screaming way too much and trying too hard with shitty guitar riffs and drums, only REAL metalheads listen to High on Fire

[TheTASTY666]

@Raigeki135 you pretty much hit the nail on the head brotha

[Raigeki135]

@TheTASTY666 Hell yeah man, i know what im talking about trust me Lmfao!!!! and i love my High on Fire haha really drunk and high right now listening to them, but of course its friday night man, party and fucking blast HIGH ON FIRE!!!!

[Aditfrom]

Love this music...



[bluetilefeverz]

omfg , in the pit at 1:30, makes me want to rip peoples faces off and eat them and head band ferociously while doing so

[edibletalkingchairs]

i replay the song just for the intro!!!

[MacheteVL]

убийственно великая дремучесть хD

[snewso]

defintion of metal

[wienerschule]

if all of us were barbarians this song would be nr. 1 on the charts

[claramaereynoldss]

I'm perdy stoned on flames right now.

[Dethtothenations]

high right now

somewhat on fire too

[dudonaut]

6:10 is the fucken awesomeness ahaha yes!

[MegaAnkylosaurus]

6 people wern't high on fire.

[MrZshosh]

anyone else feel frickin invincible when they hear that intro

[bonuzround]

@MrZshosh you, sir, have made my day.

[kingsatcrime]

HOF is the real deal, like Motorhead

[ahz1993]

at 2:40 i thought: motterhead?

[JoshC969]

The first 40 seconds where awesome then they killed it, And WTF is up with singer, He sounds weird at some parts, like he's losing his voice but still trying to sing, but the others parts he's alright... You know what, NVM I hate the way the singer sounds. If they replace him they would probably sound better

[abomb83]

@JoshC969 You obviously know nothing about High On Fire. The intro is awesome but the heavy ass verses is what makes this song rip.

[Rorschach324]

@JoshC969 He can't be replaced ahaha, he's the founder, guitarist, and songwriter of a 3-man band.

[eatower2]

I feel like kicking puddy monsters and forming into a giant robot when I listen to this intro

[xSiNiST3RxP0Vx]

This song is talking about reptilians (serpents) snakes that took over our planet throughout history.

[BustedZen]

Heard this song on Todd and the Book of Pure Evil, which made an awesome show even more awesome. Fucking so awesomely metal my heart almost exploded.

[MadeInVain]

Yeeeaah, now this is how a band should sound. Sexy ass talent. LOL

[18M0biUs18]

to be honest ive never heard of this band .. anywhere .. so yeah

[ProfessorLongbottom]

Todd and the Book of Pure Evil

[DameunPutazo]

Not dissing any other bands, or genre... or sub genres and/or labels...

...but,

High on Fire is making the best music right now. They are untouchable at the moment; this song is testament to their musicianship. Epic.

I love the sludgiest of songs from previous albums, to the new ones on Snakes For The Divine. These guys are just amazing, epic, songwriters.

Anyone else feel the need to pick up a battle axe?

[kzohf]

@DameunPutazo You have not heard the Sword then.

[DameunPutazo]

@kzohf Yes I have, and I stand by my statement: HOF is untouchable atm. I love Slayer, but even they aren't pushing metal the way HOF does. The Sword doesn't have grit imo. They will be an elite band in the coming years, but not now.

The Sword isn't as heavy as the Melvins, and aren't as technical as Sabbath. HOF is.

[MyLenster]

@DameunPutazo well said brother, this band is def settin a new standard, transcending old school sound with new school edge. and their from the Bay Area!..but.....as for me...... i prefer a large claymore!!!hahahaha!valhalla\m­/

[DameunPutazo]

@MyLenster claymore, axe, cleaver, mace... idc. U know what I mean. lol.

[pachelify]

@DameunPutazo ...and Enter Shikari.......and Dance Gavin Dance

[Patriot3pcter]

seen them with opeth live and didnt even know who they were, great band!

[Ostopchuk880]

opening riff is ORGASMIC !

[MegaAnkylosaurus]

What? Why all the arguement about hip-hop? If you like hip-hop, listen to hip-hop. If you like metal, listen to metal. If you like both listen to both. Now let's just enjoy H.O.F.

[caceteirooooo]

This is my alarm clock *.*

[oeyamatsuna78]

Five tween wavers.



[MrZshosh]

i frickin love that intro

[idiotsrus92]

\m/ ( -_- ) \m/

so much fucking \m/

[bsabbath55]

People only listen to hip hop because there own society dictates them to. Honestly it is horrible music,,,, just think of that Marco Polo song, what the fuck is that??? I think I heard a song one day and the chorus was "toot it and boot it" talking about dumbing down the population

[Dosmosable]

@bsabbath55 Don't throw all of hip-hop under that umbrella. Not only are you wrong you just sound ignorant

[sniperkneupper]

@Dosmosable who cares slay all hip hop anyway! if it's not massive tube amplifiers and acoustic drumsets it deserves to DIIIIIIEEEEE!!!!! ok haha maybe not. I like some hip hop too just kidding lol.

[ameritechdj]

@bsabbath55 absolutley right, lets go out and buy a bunch of bullshit and put spinning this and shiney that look at me Im a dumb ass

[manel778]

@Thevillagepeople777 yeah hip hop is good too, much different kind of music and expression but still, good music. now this is the most fucked up thrashy sludge stoner, matt pike is tha beast, this is satan's fav son

[violentjsgurl]

todd and the book of pure evil

[katiasabbath]

great intro!!!!!

[roastbeefdinner]

SERIOUSLY?..HOLY SHIT! FUCK YEAH!!!

[disinteger]

"Gazing at gold, the ancient crime

Rise up, fall down"

FUCK yeah!

[abomb83]

def one of the best bands. period.



[67675656565655656565]

@Thevillagepeople777 its a talentless genre

[TheMiracleTheSleeper]

@67675656565655656565 Hip-hop takes more talent than any could ever expect a metalhead elitist to appreciate.

[TheMiracleTheSleeper]

@TheMiracleTheSleeper And if you think I'm talking about the crappy hip hop pumped out single after single from record companies at an alarming rate, dig this:

I'm not.

[67675656565655656565]

@TheMiracleTheSleeper can they play an instrument no can they sing no so therefore they have no talent fuckhead

[TheMiracleTheSleeper]

@67675656565655656565 Wow what a narrow minded view on what talent is. I play metal guitar, I know it ain't easy. I make lyrics and beats as well, shit ain't easy brah.

But hey, could I expect anything less from a metal elitist? I used to be just like you. Then I grew up.

[67675656565655656565]

@TheMiracleTheSleeper i am not a metal elitist if u take away rappers all you have is just the same monotous beat over and over.

[TheMiracleTheSleeper]

@67675656565655656565 I go by the principle that musicians should make music that sounds good to them, it doesn't matter what others think of the music. Yeah its nice to get validation on your work, but you gotta please yourself. And if that means beats that sound similar to what another producer has created, so be it. There are as many bands and artists in the world that you won't like as you will learn to like. I can't expect you to like hip hop, but its narrow minded to think its talentless.

[TheMiracleTheSleeper]

@67675656565655656565 You also have to admit that tons of the metal made nowadays is monotonous and generic also. Half the time is the same scream, similar licks, technique, production, lyrical theme. C'mon, lets be real for a sec. You find and listen to music based upon what sounds good to you. You make music based upon what sounds good to you. Doesn't matter what the genre or how it was made. Good tunes is good tunes bradda.

[Metalmalitia141]

@TheMiracleTheSleeper word.

[TheMiracleTheSleeper]

And this song, is the fukken shiiiit!!!!!

[grooveroid]

Gotta get this album in the car. Get to places faster n terrorize the neighborhoodz!

[rocknrollfirebird23]

no description available... damn straight.

[maximaxi09]

watched this because off David Gonzalez

[katiasabbath]

epic!!

[necrosx9]

O.O holy shit this is fucking awesome!! \m/!!!!!

[WebClewAct]

have listened to this more times than i can count.

this went off soooo hard at soundwave.

matt pike is a legend, and his beer gut is inspirational

[NoQuarter46]

High on Fire is the next best thing to someone telling you Matt Pike is your Dad.

[fich01]

This song is the biggest god damn tease. It starts out with one of the most bitchin guitar riffs in any metal song ever and then just gives us tiny glimpses of it throughout the rest of the song. Like an underaged schoolgirl flashing her panties at you knowing you'll be in a crapload of trouble if you try something. Damn you, High on Fire, damn you and your schoolgirl panties.

[smithical100]

I don't particularly care for high on fire. I liked matt pike when he was in sleep, but this song. Son of a bitch, probably one of the top 20 songs I've ever heard. Its pretty bad ass.

[PisauraXTX]

This song gets better every time I listen to it. If that's even possible.

[gigglebritches]

I'd like to find the 4 guys who disliked this song and kick their retarded asses. lol

[devourthemartyr]

These guys rock my world!!!

[LazySisyphos]

This band uses my favorite and most used guitar-tunings of them all, the C-Tuning ;)

really unique sound those guys have, simply EPIC

[bradstagangsta88]

Lovely.

[MrBubbles0o0o]

fazsgh;fsdgbro;eabvlfcbgerj

Sorry guys i was cleaning my keyboard,

i jumped through the roof when i could play this into so i had clean it up..

[hunrah1]

I was pissed they clashed with Primus at soundwave but when i left to get to Dimmu i caught this (My fav of theirs) at the end FUCKING METAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!! cant wait till they come back and i can catch their full set

[watami10]

all you cunts from good old Aus GO GET YOUR STONER/SLUDGE ON

[semisynth13]

MAtt owes me money , ass !!!

[semisynth13]

MAtt owes me money , ass !!!

[NoQuarter46]

REPELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL­LLLLLEDD!!!!!!!

This shits even better live.

[Darthspleen]

They delivered again at Soundwave. They really are an awesome sight to behold, and certainly know how to get the crowd going. \m/ o.o \m/

[tickaz84]

I had never heard of these guys until yesterday at Soundwave while I was waiting for Dimmu Borgir and they totally surprised me with how awesome they are.

[locken01]

@tickaz84

fuck yeh dude, was only about 50 of us in front of them, fucking awesome set.

on another note, ill nino can suck a fat one for doing their soundcheck all through dimmu's set.

[jerman2003]

Reminds me alot of Motorhead, and that's a very good thing!

[junberg]

the opening is so orgasmic that it must be added into every action-packed movies/videos

[tHecOmMeNtErSrEtUrN]

Good opening, but the voice made me lol.

[pmoran420]

Ya everyone who disses the vocals knows nothing about metal... Like how these vocals are practically mellow compared to some metal, and it freaking rocks! If you don't like the vocals go listen to disturbed or godsmack and leave the good shit to the true fans

[metalhead158622]

Such a fucking beautiful guitar riff at the beginning with a chuggy bass line and some of the best hrash and down right nasty vocals

LOVE IT!!!!!!!! New Fan Right Here

[Seek1Destroy1]

First time hearing this band - and I like my metal. Auspicious beginnings thus far, I can tell ya!!

[sk8erfreak540]

David Gonzoles brought me here

[samfulfordskates]

yay lets form an alliance against pop and rap musi- FUCK OFF i dont give a single shit about popular-music and am quite happy for it to keep on self cannibalising and breeding incestuously with its self, if metal is made into the new popular-music it will also become over-produced shit.

[Videostar1another1fa]

YEAH!



[dedeen]

This song was amazing on Todd and the Book of Pure Evil.

This band, and that show both rock this world.

[TRuble510]

These guys play a few doors down from my band at the practice studio. Got to hear them practice all thiss stuff. Awesome guys too

[huludicidal]

Kept waiting for it to get better but it never happened.

[09991500]

@huludicidal Be nice now, they are not that bad!

[88acres]

Mastodon, High on Fire, Dillinger Escape Plan, Meshuggah, Baroness, The Ocean, Isis, Neurosis all fuckin wikked bands, deserve way more airplay, and should stat an alliance dedicated to killing off hip hop and pop music....

[GaPalmeiras]

@88acres you forgot electric wizard, how dare you? :P

[novan08]

@88acres I happen to love hip hop and metal. No point disrespecting something you don't like or understand.

[PisauraXTX]

@novan08 Hip Hop is OK, but pop music fucking sucks cause it's not about art or emotion, it's just about making money.

[Netugi]

@PisauraXTX Some of them, yes. Pop isn't always about money though. Eminem and Lady Gaga (sometimes) are good examples. Just because it's popular, doesn't mean that they're doing it for the moneyz.

[Qodaet]

@PisauraXTX Hip Hop is ok as long as they don't mix it with the almighty heavy metal! And keep it away from me, hahaha.

[Qodaet]

@PisauraXTX BTW some 80's pop songs are acceptable. But today's pop is 100% shit.

[gatekeeper501]

@PisauraXTX that a conundrum isnt it? To be considered 'Pop' is to be 'Popular' and being popular makes you money. Then in all truth of your comment, its impossible to be nothing but money hungry if you become popular. Interesting.

[crubutt]

@88acres whats wrong with hip hop and pop?



[Heinekenberg]

@crubutt nothing, if I don't have to listen :P

[1990MattyD]

@crubutt - Hip Hop and Pop are just autotuned shite that have no real emotion, and are songs that only deal with parties and fun, not the real issues that people must deal with.

[1Anonymouse]

@1990MattyD you're ignorant.

[Woulv92]

@1990MattyD i dont like hip hop just like you, but that's not true dude! be nice and stay metal ;D \m/

[1990MattyD]

@Woulv92 - So you have been a waste of my time. Thanks very much.

[Woulv92]

@1990MattyD ...ur welcome -.-

[crubutt]

@1990MattyD ok, according to you, happiness is not a 'real' emotion. love is not a 'real' emotion. 'real issues that people must deal with' hahahahahahahahaha. you are an idiot. Deal with that.

[1990MattyD]

@crubutt - Fucking Americans.

[crubutt]

@1990MattyD americans? what have americans got to do with anything?



[chebrofan]

@88acres Why Hip Hop? faggot

[battoflitsa123]

@88acres so fucking true dude....

[Metaldisciple666999]

@88acres Pop music always dies off and than a new generation of bullshit comes up. A few years from now todays pop acts will be forgotten.

[danlikesmusicalot]

@88acres who says these bands hate hip hop?

[theinmortal6]

@88acres As if you know something about good Pop and good Hip Hop apart from the Mainstream, who sucks hard.

[theinmortal6]

@88acres As if you know something about good Pop and good Hip Hop apart from the Mainstream, which sucks hard.

[Videostar1another1fa]

@88acres Actually,Mastodon gets more airplay than you think...

[megalooneyone1]

@88acres

Dude,, None of those are metal, they're WORSE than hip hop and pop. They're emo metalcore screamo ~esque stuff

[cortarelva]

Im completely hooked on this album its fucking amasing.

[normskis69]

Just checking this out for first time; love the intro on drums, and the way the vocals break in with stampeeding riffage.

[mistermoen]

Good metals back, man. Matt is gonna lead us all to the promised land (hell).

[MrHolabogalog]

@mistermoen its all about the living dead and pure hell on earth

[MetalMonster1229]

This is an underated band.

They're pretty good \m/

[MrOldgoat43]

You should know more about the background before you judge the vocals..........

I don't think they were looking to draw a GLAM crowd.......posers.

[MrOldgoat43]

Noone botched any vocals......the dudes voice is supposed to sound brutal, and like that of a madman. You people who don't like the vocals, obviously don't know anything about the music's background. Go listen to Motley Crue, if you're looking for over-produced vocals.......this shit has roots in punk, and black metal, not glam. If you don't like it, don't listen to it.

[doom696mented]

@MrOldgoat43 black metal?=))))))) you're stoned, my friend ! This is called Stoner Metal, has no similarity with black metal or other things like that !

[iLostAgenToday]

Seen these supporting Fear Factory and they were wicked!! \m/

[sorryifioffendedu]

Why is everybody dissing on the vox? I love his voice! It's unique and sets them apart from a lot of similar sounding bands. 

[1974BigJay]

High on Fire is like a sledgehammer to your skull, There music isn't complicated, pretty or watered down. It's just straight forward and brutal!!!!
