Metal Church - The Dark - Method To Your Madness

[guitarchitect68]

The lyrics are factual.....

[magriice]

a metal classic

[gonnabaroberts]

Frickin kickass!!!

[FLoading00]

i loved this song!

[IMattchewB]

Cool song. "War is terrorism" - When planes were kamikazied into the World Trade Center, an act of terrorism, war on the United States had begun. - Is that what you meant to say Voltronsky?

[keiterbug]

I have to laugh at every idiot who says "Stop labeling".. Are you that damn stupid you don't know what style you are listening to? These bands take the time to create these different sounds and idiots like you can't comprehend a simple timing pattern.

I'm not even a music major and I know the difference between speed, thrash and doom. It's not rocket science. good freaking grief people. You sound like complete morons.

[davidscurlock1]

very nice video i feel very free when i list en to this thank you God for my life and Jesus for my salvation...and metal church for my metal lol

[D1Gr8hansGraf]

3:39 is priceless!!!! Their facial expressions are perfect!!!

[jeffreycollins]

Their lyrics for this album were so visual. Such amazing music. I wish THIS particular line up could have made another 10 albums.

[gravefllame]

Great lyrics! Awesome song! Eternal love t0o this underestimated band! Supervideo by the way!!

Take care man!!!

[gravefllame]

Great lyrics! Awesome song! Eternal love t0o this underestimated band!

[rattstation]

@voltronsky

No brother. I didnt even saw METAL CHURCH alive. I am from Bulgaria. They never visit my country but I love the music from the first album till the last. I realy hope they will be on stage again.  Great band.

[MetallicBill]

Watch the Children Pray, Ton of Bricks, and the first album, Mandatory owns for any and all true "Rivet Heads", come on, if you don't like this, you ARE A POSER!!

[rattstation]

Great job voltronsky realy well done .

Metal Church rules ... my world will never be the same without David...

[BLACKSABBATH0HM]

I love how this is a speedy and thrashy song with a beautiful chorus that sounds similar to something journey would do.

[MetallicBill]

@BLACKSABBATH0HM It's the FAST killer guitar solos and strong melodic sense, A clear Priest and Maiden influence.... and sure, SABBATH influenced everyone, no exception

[TheMusicfan71]

Awsome. Thanks for posting.

[angryguitarguy]

@voltronsky yeah, metal up

[Johnoco66]

Ace song, great lyrics, can't whack it bro.

[m138jewski]

great fucking song

[TheMetalJackson]

I WISH there was more metal like this!!! 16 N listen to nothin but thrash and metal \m/ very underrated, metal church fuckin awesome!

[Thorpe741]

Metal Church.

[TheHellPatrol666]

Hopefully the neighbors will like this song.

[martinzcech]

this is awesome stuff, everytime i listen to this song, i get what i call "the musical orgasm"

[DodeMagneet]

fucking 5 not like faggots assholes peren ei pie ofzo

[DyingCr0w]

I just keep coming back. Not ony because Metal Church is part of my past, but also because whoever did this really felt all the shit thats going on, and did it perfectly. And i will keep coming back, this is epic .

[christiannandres]

@DyingCr0w u r sooooooooo right!

[jpwatchtv]

Great song!!

[rpepe100]

10/10

[rpepe100]

Metal Church is upper echelon most bad-ass bands ever without question I still love it to this day as much as I did when I was 18 yrs old lo just killer

[marv3488]

the message is great!!! song is everybodies own matter...

Thanks to those guys who posting this !!! or things with these messages!!!

PEACE

[marsixxlee]

i didnt mean to ofend any one, maybe what i tried to say acording with my english didnt make sense, but i apologise for my coments, i do admire your country, and also i know how embarrasing is my in many senses, i just wanted to say that the band reflected the sadnes and consecuences of war, , i repit ididn want to ofend any body, sorry guys.

[AmericanDroogie]

Well seeing as we are on the topic of god, i must say the gods truely blessed us with this band, and so i thank the gods of metal for Metal Church

[liranegra]

GREAT SONG, IS SAD THAT THE AMERICANS BEING SUCH AN ADMIRABLE PEOPLE AND COUNTRY ,HAVE A SIDE THAT RUINS EVERY GOOD THING THEY HAVE CREATED, AND THAT IS THEIR GOVERMENT AND POLITICS, KILLING THEIR OWN PEOPLE AND OTHER PEOPLE...ALSO I AGREE WITH pomc@, HEAVY METAL SAYS THE TRUE, AMAZING SONG FROM METAL CHURCH!!!

[Debilitator47]

@liranegra I guarantee you, whatever country you live in, your government is just as bad as ours. No-one who seeks office has good at heart - they are all power hungry - skin color does not matter, creed does not matter, religion does not matter. They're all equally horrible. Death to all governments everywhere.

Also, yarrrrr.

[liranegra]

GRAT SONG, ONCE AGAIN METAL CHURCH!!!!

[TheDogsht]

@pomc if u believe there IS a god u r a fkn moron! jesus walked on water..coz SHIT floats. i.n.r.i im nailed right in! kill your self n go c your god!!

[pomc]

@TheDogsht surely i want to see my God which you dont have.

[TheMassacuraman]

this classic is like history all over again.senseless war by fools who can never see.

[Bastige56]

Stop arguing. The bible is a childrens book. But if you believe there isnt a higher power then you are surely mistaken.

[Rdannylor2]

This is my favourite song off the dark album, catchy song, awesome riffs, excellent lyrics, just a perfect song & band. \m/

[snachquat]

@Rdannylor2 This song rules, brings back strong memories.

[ERICx223]

2:39 ... wtf?

[skeletonseyes]

This music never get old!!!

Metal Church is awesome!!! \m/

[Doodorz]

This band needs more recognition. Too bad the music industry is run by a bunch of core fags.

[cantolliesowhat]

My favorite Metal Church song!

[LordHewing]

Not heard this Metal Church track before. I've been missing out. It's incredible!!!. Nice post! Thanks greatly.

[heavychevyman572]

fuck why are these guys so underrated? ive only been listening to them for a few months but i fucking love em. first song i heard by them was start the fire and i was hooked. ive been going to their church everyday

[OccupieDeath]

Blasted this song everytime we went out on a mission. Metal Fuckin Church \m/ Fav song... oh wait tied with bandlands

[christiannandres]

the solo is just...BEAUTIFUL

[garfield1980fan]

powerful lyrics this song i should let my vet friends listen to this song eventhough they served in the 1990 i think this song should be in reguards to whatever year the vets served and i didnt forget our current soliders too

[EltonMagnus]

essa música é perfeita! me lembra uma época boa da minha vida! Metal Church Rules! \m/

[christiannandres]

i dont think an amazing band( part of today's best on my opinion)like tool needs to still a riff, could sound a little alike though,METAL CHURCH is been for almost 25 years one of my fav bands, his voice is very unique and lyrics are always great!!good tape memories!

[danzig266]

Twenty + years ago this was my favorite band, even though my political views lean to the right these days......this still kicks ass!! I guess the Bush part of the video was funny too!!

[thomasandarica]

ONE of the BEST songs EVER and I'M SURE ALL our TROOPS think so to... REST my case, bring them back to their FAMILY'S.

[Creator450]

A album way before its time !

[AsphyxGr]

This song is from another place outside earth. So unique band, I 'm glad I met MC's tunes. Will never forget this song's main riff

[MrThecannibal]

RIP David Wayne. This copy sounds bigger than how i remembered it on cassette.

[thedarkmethods]

Eulogy TOOL!!!

THEY COPY THE RIFF, THIS BAND ARE AMAZING!!!

SONG 10/10

[treyzx10r]

RIP David Wayne you are missed so much,thanks for all the great music

[37952010171]

[24MEGADETH]

[MetallicBill]

Yep, The Dark was when I got into the band KICK ASS still, that first album is marginally tougher though, and still holds up today!

[linkoffuary]

... D:

[fafoo]

What a fuckin' classic!

[T00DLES213]

Great vid! Pics go great with the song, and it has lyrics!

[Mrvahalla]

[Erich745]

The main riff is fucking amazing

[wrldofsht]

great album I remember it well. had it on cassette many moons ago, as well as the first album. saw em at sundance years ago, they ripped sht up, very tight band.

[squiged]

I used to jam this in Desert Storm and it has given me awesome memories to hear it agian granted what was done there is of NO equal to what they are talking about .....by the way the gutair at around 2:55 drives me f..ing madd!!!! thanks man for the post

[oldgunsnroses4eva]

This is one of my favourite songs from this album

[rosstheboss6]

timeless....... this would come out today and it would still kick ass... im a big thrash metal fan !! this is awesome

[writingthetruth]

Perfect song, great lyrics and an atmosphere typical for Metal Church.

[FalseWitnessScoob]

Great album,great band! If this came out new today, it would be an instant hit.

[davidscurlock1]

@FalseWitnessScoob right on!!

[ne1cool]

Nicely done. Thanks for posting this.

[LordArithon]

This is my favorite song off of The Dark. I sometimes walk around still humming this song as I can't seem to get it out of my head at times.

[johnlivia6061]

This is Metal.

What kind of metal isn't important. Speed, Thrash, Doom, Black. Bullshit!

Why try to label everything??

Listen to the music and shut up.

I'm sick and tired of those endless quarrels, every next hick knows it better than the previous one.

[TheMetalJackson]

@johnlivia6061

anything BESIDES metal we can label

:D

[NytroMetal]

@johnlivia6061 What about Nu Metal?

[VVasteOfTime]

LOVE THIS SONG!

[LencelGR]

This is NOT thrash stuff. this song is pure US power metal like Helstar,Vicious Rumors,Omen,Lethal,Oliver Magnum etc

[37952010171]

Who cares if it`s thrash, power metal or whatever. M C kick ass!!!!!!!!!!

[MetallicBill]

Both!

[miklockdredi]

Thanks for the response!!

[Gys1978]

great video dude

awesome song.. metal church rules

\M/

[sadpenguin01]

Great video

[savalegions]

the chug chug of those guitars FUCKIN RULE---man i wish they made music like this again!!

[Zuneowner]

its yhe fucking C

METAL CHURCH

[garethparrot]

i got this album on its release in early 1987 . to my suprise it was panned by the press and was considered a comercial sell out ( the bands first release on major label elektra).

i loved it, particulary this track.

[Georgeous129]

I agree with 'underappreciated', at least some people are making the effort to hear and see these hidden gems.

[MegadethRustInPeace]

Dose anyone know how to play this song on guitar???

[enwll3427]

nice work

I love Wayne's Metal Church

[331vintagestock]

great video, voltronsky and a great song, not to mention a heavy band.

[TheBlackProphecies]

Shit dude I remember watch this vid last year b4 i had an account(or internet lolz)it kicked ass then and it kicks ass now!!!

[deadheadlooser]

how about skyclad??? Schadenfreaud.... best song EVER... :) peace

[deadheadlooser]

Great song- decent album

[FromtheDarkstream]

MC/Reverend are one of my faves - great vid.

[RainbowBlues13]

ok, voltronsky, you obviously haven't heard too much B/P then because it's not all like that and some is actually pretty heavy and rocks. they're one of the few newer bands that i like these days because we don't have the good stuff we used to. maybe i should have been thinking more along the lines of Out in the Fields and Military Man by Phil Lynott and Gary Moore. as much as we might want it, we're never gonna get David Wayne and Phil Lynott back. for me, B/P do cover a small bit of that.

[RainbowBlues13]

anyone into songs with a message like this might also like "Hunting For Witches" by Bloc Party, another kick-ass band, which is about all the terrorism going on these days. there is mention of the bombs exploding on the 30 bus, and the "90s, optimistic as a teen, now it's terror, airplanes crash into towers".

it's also about the media coverage we get and our reactions to that, with the "witches" in the title referring to muslims, who now seem to be represented by the events of 9/11.

[RainbowBlues13]

this has always been my fave from this album too, and thank you sooooo much for what you have done with the vid. especially after reading the comment from jahoodunrama - that's the kind of thing that makes the effort worth it.

it's a pity the "powers that be" will never get the message!

good to see though that even these days, so many are still listening and loving it, and especially the young kids. now young kids, get out there and make some of this good shit for us again!

[37952010171]

Someone`s put a lot of work into this video. NICE!

[bigblockelectra]

What album cover is that? LP? The Cd album cover has two glowing eyes in the doorway.

[jahoodunrama]

i love this song, but being a non-native english speaker i dont tend to listen to lyrics. but having seen this video i know realize the depth of the song.. its amazing.

[stercame]

Beautifull.

[metalcruzer]

this song is still relevant after all this time

[AngelaBSP]

I forgot that I loved this song sooo much. Thank you for remembering.

[guitarben2000]

One of the greatest War Songs Ever written. But you fucking kids wouldn't know shit about that.

[skeletonseyes]

finest music!awesome!

[jacouber]

Very poetic choice of images.

[jdmstyler]

this is real fuckin 80's metal!

[camargos]

voltronsky, thanks for posting this fuckin classic, i love this album, i love this band, unfortunatelly most of people nowadays dont know what real metal is all about, D. Waine rest in peace brother!!

Hail metal Church

[GIKASRECORDS]

RULES :)

[metalcruzer]

i mixed up my old school albums i had Blessing in disguise!!! I think i still have it somewhere

[Lesrevesdhiver]

Don't forget to jam "Powers that be" on that album, the guitar work is kick ass!

This song "method..." is the best off The Dark. Metal Church had some amazing music.

[metalcruzer]

i was really into these guys 20 years ago, i saw them 3 times from 86-87, all their live shows were great. after wayne left i stopped listening, but i have Metal church on disc and i need to find the dark cause i lost my tape around 93!!

[BodaciousWickerman]

Awesome!!!

[surg20]

Great song but I hear Iron Maiden in this song bigtime. David Wayne (RIP) sounds real good but I like Mike Howe a little more.

[fedner31]

I got this tape in an order of 12 other tapes from Columbia House back in 1987 for $1.86. Remember when they did that?

[dockbillin]

I remember this one from the eighties. I loved it then and I love it now.

[WilsonGuitar]

one of my favourite songs ever!

[bloodred1313]

oh the memories thanks

[kirrie60]

they dedicated this album to the memory of cliff burton i thought when the singer left they were never the same.

[metalcruzer]

once wayne left that was it for me too they peaked with only 2 records!

[StumpDrummer]

find the live album with wayne

ill give the second singer an 8 but you have to keep in mind of what he was up against

and ronnie munroe is kicking some major butt now i give him a 9.5 for having the nards to take on the front man position

[metalcruzer]

I just heard ronnie munroe recently and he fuckin wails, I bought the human factor back in 88 just to give it a chance and some songs were ok like fake healer and badlands I just couldnt get past that wayne wasnt singing. Metal church and the Dark were such great underrated albums its too bad!

[dotd113]

dude the live album is so kickass... the only thing that would make it perfect would method to your madness on it

[brucetheking]

GUNS AT YOUR BACK!!!!!

[Angelorke]

They got you in their sight..

[xjavierin5]

whoooou cogrtulations for posting sorri i not speak eanglis

[bubbabubba20042004]

Right on, lahnamurke.  I think I will too. Taped this from a friend back then and this one got cut. Awesome song.

[lahnamureke]

After hearing this song I just had to order this album and their debut, I should get them in a couple of weeks.. Can't wait!

[dontknowwhattodoguy]

love this song

i love your description too

[rocker66666666]

it's wierd this is my favorite song from the dark album beside western alliance. metal church kicks ass. best metal band.

[phoenixswordie]

metal rules..........

[johnlivia6061]

i'm 48 now and still a fan. had many favourites, but i always turn back to this one. one of the best bands and songs ever. tks for posting this tasteful compilation.

[GiSSEllEx3]

Fucking amazing! I was so into this band when I was 14. Now at 33 this song still makes me emotional. Thanks for posting this work of art.

[Maltliquorisquicker]

great job. love the song and band.

[BringerOfRelease]

This is great. Sad that it's so hard to get a cd from them.

[SirusLaVey]

hell yes thnx for posting!

hornz

[kukkanainen37]

i admire all the compilation of pictures you compiled for this wonderful song. I will show this to my anti-war 16 year old son.....He will appreciate it like I do. Thank you. Especially liked the Guevarra part.

[voltronsky]

You're quite welcome brother, hope your son likes it. Spreading the awareness of both the hell that is war and the tool for protest we have in metal music should be every responsible parents duty. instead of letting their kids go watch mtv or some idiotic sitcom that only brainwashes them to ignore the atrocities and the underhanded manouvers occuring behind our backs.

[darkpoetfarouk]

i've always liked the lyrics more than the song itself. great anti-war song. reminds me of Metallica's "disposable heroes" and "one" the singer (i forget his name) had an incredible voice too (listen to 'when the children pray'). this guy and bruce dickenson i think were hands down the 2 best singers of the 80's metal bands. they both could 'actually' sing.

[hakksaw]

RIP David Wayne........you done it right, I thank you for your time.

[ironbird01]

What's Up with This Music!?? I keep turning Up Louder! an LOUDER!!

[GIKASRECORDS]

METALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL

[GIKASRECORDS]

THIS IS METAL

[bioman888]

Thanks for posting. truly great band.

[Skullrik]

thank you for this. I owned this album soon after it was released, and this was my favorite song.

[mrckunkel]

sehr geil gemacht, danke dafür!!!

very cool video, thanx for it!!!

[Chuloloc]

Awesome. Now this is true metal. Hail Metal Church. RIP, David Wayne.

[crs121]

This kicks ass!

[removetube]

I "forgot" about this Great song, Thanks for "reminding" me!

[Lesrevesdhiver]

This song is my favorite on The Dark.

Thanks for sharing this!

The song "The Dark" was what first caught my attention but this one later became my fav.

Thanks again

[visser666]

awesome song and video..

metal church rules!!!

[southplnk]

the best song on the cd or mabye psycho

[cool2anyone]

I can't find the CD in stores. what store did you get it?

[TheReaperDefender]

this song IS Metal Church

[jdmstyler]

This song is what the 80's metal kickingass was all about!

[gummodude]

Nice job putting this together.

[fatstrat402]

this is definitely a great example of an under rated talented band. the first 2 metal church cds are two of the best cds i have ever heard in my life. this band is amazing

[Exploder1992]

My favorite Metal Church song

[ArmoredPanther]

Metal Church! I have their self-titled second ablum, which has a cover of Highway Star. This is solid metal here, too!

[chxngao]

pretty cool...not sure if i'd call it thrash though

[voltronsky]

yeh this song has more of an Accept meets Rush tinge, but it was pretty much the only "ballad" on the album.

[aiggis]

if this is the "ballad", what would you call "watch the children pray"? either way, some interesting imagery with this song. pretty cool vid.

[sanderchip]

gr8 fuckn song! i dont really consider this song a ballad though, we watch the children pray yea but not this song

[voltronsky]

haha alright alright I stand corrected !!

[sanderchip]

madness is just a gr8 straight 4ward metal song,classic
