Touching.

[omerta1480]

This video is beautiful. Thanks Burton

[nebelhexemovies]

This is magical! Thanks Burton :-)

[Mindweeper]

reminds me sometimes of Paradise Lost in there '99 album Host...good sound...i hope Fear Factory will return...

[EndoMetalSkeleton]

Bell is one of the best vocalists metal has ever had,

i am just waiting & wishing dino will kick in with his famous backdrop.. :)

listening to fear factory members in other bands seems like a machine

taken apart.

[trexx6662k5]

Love the track, brilliant video.

[Eppillus]

I love ambient shit like this. Bell is a savage musician.

[juanxxxmetal]

suck

[666HaZzL666]

My thirst for love, my need to fly...

My freedom, my soul's desire....

Nothing ever lasts forever!

[knoxundead]

I think his vocals worked better in the demo.

[Chuloloc]

Awesome. Just freaking amazing. Hail Ascensions Of The Watchers.

[SnakeEyes356]

I hate how people always bash singers like Burt for branching out and doing their own thing...hell Dimebag was even killed for it...people he just wanted to do something ELSE for awhile!!! So shut the fuck up and listen

[stagmanchester]

Tool rip off

[stagmanchester]

@stagmanchester and a bit of NIN thrown in

[RwBguardian]

@aotwmusic-"Unlock the sharing capabilities so it can be shared on other sites ie facebook, myspace etc. Why IS it restricted btw?"

[soilworker85]

is it just me,or did these songs sound better on the e.p. before the full length...didnt care too much for the remakings....

[etherealbird7]

Sweet!!!

[maldit0x]

man ..... im so dissapointed but still respect burt's effort to experiment and make different music than the epic days of Fear Factory

[bigrecestudio]

Classe A MANO ABÇ E SUCESSO!!!! CHICAO

[MsFirestarter13]

check out City of Fire if you havent already

[nymphydugong]

I love this song and the video. Anyone who had had depression with identify with the little character with the big red eyes, going to bed night after night and trying to get beyond the nightmares.

[roh00002]

where have you guys been? they are back! just seen em twice! lol

[9INCHRICH]

FF's songs became like little movies. Each one different but obviously cut from the same mold. No different then an artists period works. This is just a different movie, with a different approach, and delivery. Just listen or don't

[beastt69]

yes i miss fear factory as well BUT u have to respect BURTONS choice.... i dont mind it i spose when i gt smashed off my head and lax lisitening to it but carnt compare to linchpin ... but will buy this to show my respect

[Blade376]

I have to admit I do prefer the demo version of this track... or is that just because I heard it first... and you brain automatically assumes 'that is how it should sound'?

[drushtvo]

no. it just sounded better. you were right the first time. like this song...

they just HAD to go and screw it up.

Is it just me but does Burt really sound like he can't sing for shit on Numinosum?

[AnAxetoGrind]

Fear Factory went as far as they could. If they went any further, they would've gotten stale, like Deicide.

No band sounds good when the members, even just one, isn't into what they are doing.

[Blade376]

@AnAxetoGrind Wait until you hear Mechanize then make a decision =]

[SixStringPaladin]

I like this,good for something ambient

[sparkinsons]

noooooooo. I love FF and am pretty sad i looked at this

[bad41132]

If you want the hard side of ff listen to arkaea if you want the softer side of ff listen to this

[yunus1338]

We want Fear Factory back

[vladderfall]

fear factory is my favorite band. and i love burton. but i cant even listen to this.

[mangoat]

sucks they had to cancel the tour

[bolarebel]

yeah, ascension rock'¡s!

[Kylar5715]

Epic. Fucking. Video. I love it.

[rynblmer190]

You're a cutie.

[Kylar5715]

LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL

[andwrya]

A very powerful song and video! Thanks Burton!!

[FaceDef519]

its nice to see another side to Burton your a talented mind and good luck on all your new projects. the negativity and selfishness in this world is only going to cause our extiction. keepin it positive :)

[mickeywantstostab]

is this the real video? Its cool no matter what.

[metaleer1979]

As a big fan of bands like Pink Floyd I must say finally someone in our time did it

Thank you Burton

[jesuswasarobot]

Wow. This is not was I was expecting at all. It's ok I guess, but I enjoy Fear Factory a little bit more.

[h86obsid]

Great video.

[ethericempyrean]

2. However, this sounds terrible it sounds like (band) The Cure attempted to add new age electronic elements and it went totally wrong. The monotone vocals are also annoying

[ethericempyrean]

1. I totally respect Bell for moving on from FF due to a lot of emotional changes and subsiding anger in his life. He no longer has the desire to do extreme vocals over extreme music. Theres a lot guys that start dropping out of the metal industry as they clime their 30s and start to mellow out. There is for sure usually Aggressive and Angry emotional motivators in many young metal musicians or vocalists.

[flykiddown]

Great stuff Burton(and crew).. keep making music and ill be listening, fan for life!

[UNSCleric]

Such a beautiful song and video...I've loved this song for over a year now and it's in my top 5 of all-time, but this video chokes me up every time.

[Graveworm82]

i kinda liked FF but this suks big time!

bell must be in his midlife crysis or somethin like that

[vectorwx3]

"There is nothing left of me,

There is nothing that you see,

All I am is memory,

And that is all you will be.

Nothing ever lasts forever..."

Great but sad project.

[lkmetal2007]

hey cool, thanx 4 posting, and as much as i love muzik-the only i hate when artists branch off and do their own thing, i have to keep up with their projects as well, great song, great eerie sound.

[Thedarkerhalf101]

Cute...

[UnReplica]

Burton. Ur FF days were awsome. Really loved dat..

[neneminito]

Hi Victor Hugo, you really made me think how much i have abandoned my dad and he is still alive.

Thanks for reading this little but honest message and thanks for the story told in the video.

[mortimermouse]

Hello Nene. Thank you for your message, it makes my day warmer.

[selfcannibal]

i prefer the demo version of this song a lot more

[SmasherDevourerHD]

this vid has a cool message but it pisses me of in what style it is made. It reminds me too much about emos and ff or aotw doesnt ever come in rerlation with them.

[davethebassist13]

yeah, i agree man. it's because Hot Topic claims every fucking thing to them such as The Nightmare Before Xmas and Pirates of the Carribean and as a Batman fan since youth, how fucking dare they take The Dark Knight into their own hands. if it wasn't for Hot Topic selling out stuff with this kind of animation, then this would be a cool ass video.

[DetKriger]

You're both dumbasses. Just appreciate it for the art that it is.

[davethebassist13]

....we were just saying how the video looks like emo animation, and we don't want anyone confusing that kind of shit to this. I love AOTW and i'm not saying anything against them.

[wasabi222]

Jope, way to go...thats amazing stuff, hope there will be more like that from AOTW in the future...to be honest, I'm beggin' for more! Its like getting lost in some kinda space while listening...

[ant1991331]

This is f**king awesome.

[Johnnysandler]

Jesus Christ Burton That VIDEO IS AWESOME!!!!!!

[DaMaGeRR]

really pretty vid. I love Burton C. Bell and all of his music! :)

[KUROGUY]

if ministry had composed ballads...this is what they would have sounded like. Hate that they didn't really have many unless you count Scarecrow or Lay Lady Lay

[danikorn89]

very relaxing.. and kinda mellancolic.. luv it

[whistlerabc1232002]

I dont usually post comments,but i felt it nessasary for this video. It took me a few times to understand it but there is actually a story here.There is a little boy who at night gets tucked in by his father the pilot,who turns the sad face happy. In the morning the boy turnes it back to sad. But somthing goes wrong and the plane crashes no-one to turn the sad face around.boy has nightmare,until one morning the face is happy again. hence him flying out the window and his dad is there.Great video

[mortimermouse]

Hello. My name is Victor-Hugo Borges and Im the author of this video. I think every artwork should have some space for interpretation, questions instead of "facts". Regardless, you got the main narrative structure of this little movie. Think about the song´s title (and lyrics) and you could improve your sensations about it. Thank you and every one for watching. Keep your eyes on the abstract ways of thinking, this is what dreams are made of.

[cocoabononohead]

Excellent work you and your team did.

It's obvious plenty of time, design, artistic integrity, and hard work went into this.

I'm really liking this band.

[KUROGUY]

are you responsible for Ohgr's videos? Kind of similar in style. :o

[mortimermouse]

No,Im not familiar with Ohgr´s videos, do you recommend it? Any links? Thank you.

[KUROGUY]

Well finding Ohgr's videos is as simple as typing "Ohgr" into the youtube search bar. I think the only videos he has out right now are "Majik" and "Cracker". They are stop motion animation similar to your style. The Cracker video has little action figures while the Majike video seems to use some sort of strange paper cut outs and bizarre looking stuffed animals.

[pkrishnametal]

I see a similarity with the videos from Tool..Great work.

[Shot7times]

Nightmare Before Christmas on Acid!

AWESOME FUCKING VIDEO!

[scumgrief2007666]

love the video, not sure about the choice of tune though. moonshine is a much stronger track than this.

[KUROGUY]

this is the official video for THIS song. Oo;

[scumgrief2007666]

i know it is, i never said it wasn't. i was saying i thought 'moonshine' would have been a much stronger track to have as the first official video. did you actually read what i said?

[raz0rb]

At first I thought this wouldn't do, but VHB and AOTW are a match made in Heaven!

Excellent vid!

[LisaMend]

this vid is genius and wow lovee the song

i just wow Fantastic

-BunnyFate45

[MechinaAOT]

fantastic!

[rezzy123]

keep doing more like this--would be awesome if AOW because known for being connected to great animation;like primus and hisnameisalive!do a full U.S. tour and I'll show up in MN!

[antixbush]

Beautiful

[skumlove]

Love it sounds great!

we need to do some shows together!

[tehmite]

7 years in the making, still have the demo... awesome

[Timpossible999]

I'm still trying to make sense of the video, but it was awesome and trippy as hell! good work.

[alk4h0l1k]

I think its about some guy that's dead, but his ghost still remains and tries to take care for the lil guy, and wants to let him know he's there

[ULTIMATETOURNAMENT]

Wow really cool video guys... Really awesome song.

Trippyyy vid lol
