  • @MajorSwagShufflers So, how'd you find this?

  • @ snuif9 Yeah for sure like my cousin listen to this and like death metal and stuff but like Yeah maybe message me some of their recent music cause I know this is like one of their first songs?

  • @MajorSwagShufflers Glad you can appreciate it.

  • Im more of a hip hop rap old school person but holy shit this music is fu**ing awsome haha like i fall asleep to this

  • @MajorSwagShufflers Respect man I'm quite the opposite I like some oldschool rap like earlier nas and tribe called quest, but mostly black metal.

    Fucking respect for seeing the emotion in this song.

  • Amazing, brilliant, depressing and upsetting video. And great music to go with that.

  • great video, but why the hell was fred being advertized on here?!

  • It's all dependant on your own personal values. If you have no desire to own a home, you don't give a fuck about being homeless. What's sick is that cultural hypnosis in conjuction with capitalism make a world in which an overwhelming majority of people believe that having things will make them happy, when the very nature of that society makes it impossible for all people to have those things, plus what you have is never enough.

  • Video won't load.

  • who are those 24 idiots that dont like the music and the video???? damn, why you watch it if you dont like it??? Go to hell.. thats what I say... :D

  • Dokunuyor amk melodisi.

  • @sonersuren Dokunuyor ya... hem de nasıl...

  • I do like Xasthur although I cannot help but here parts of "To Live is to DIe" in this song.

  • @Jose1382 HOW IRONIC.

  • What a somber video, and the music accentuated the feeling all the more. I felt sadly for the people in this video, living life like that is more of a Hell, more so than the alleged domain where one would burn, so to speak. It's awful to see these people in such disarray.

  • C'mon Scott ,whip out some more Xasthur shit!! I'll even do a split with you ,real underground with my bands YBORATIT and COUNT JERKULA ,and my pals ,Food and Poopy's band BREATHILIZOR!!! Best USBM of all time!!!

  • better than european BM

  • Homeless viking @ 4:49 :'(

  • @TheSouthernDeath He reminded me of the homeless "Werewolf" man, on one of the first, if not the first episode of the new Beavis and Butthead series.

  • This song, this video... fucking perfect. This is life...

  • I'm in love with this song!

  • This is what despair sounds like, this is what failure looks like... Xasthur has the power to capture these two aspects of a human...

  • I am a christian. My home is on the Brazil. Looking on a general mode,the video show the human condition,with the normal questions of a anybody human. We try help this people in Brazil,but people have fear. Many people prefer living in the street than go to a hostel. Hostel in Brazil have many thiefs,drunk,bitches...not a place for a good family,a poor guy or little childrens.

  • @TheCountJames Uh, Los Angeles is probably in the upper 5% richest areas in the world.

  • @Humanophage Some parts are exceedingly rich, others parts not so much....

  • notice how the homeless held signs up with nihilistic messages.

  • bu ne amk buna intihar mı edilir.

  • ne intihar edicem amk

  • what its a genre? any dark ambient?

  • @Paulko89 Depressive Black Metal/Dark ambient.

    It's good music regardless of genre.

  • @desicasyndicat go listen to rihanna

  • Ahh, this theme is ironic. I used to own a Xasthur shirt, but eventually tossed it into a clothing donation bin. Somewhere in Pittsburgh a skinny homeless person may be unwittingly bearing the name :p

  • I wonder what the guy at the end was yelling about. Probably just asking to be left alone.

  • Ian Fleming? Really? So the creator of James Bond is into black metal?

  • Do not believe it comrade!

  • YOU EXIST FOR NOTHING!!

  • Homelessness is truly one of the darkest, depressing and dehumanizing subject matters. Although I've never been partial to Xasthur, I appreciate that Malefic has the integrity to touch upon such an issue.

  • @BloatedSubhumans expanding on your comment, of which I agree. I think it's a rather luxurious attitude to attribute "laziness" as the cause of homelessness. It's estimated that around 40% of homeless people suffer from a serious mental affliction such as schizophrenia- the majority of whom are also healthy, strong men who are capable of working. I believe this to be an illustration of the cruelty of human civilization where people who are truly suffering are dismissed as "societal throwaways"

  • @shawnyyy6875 What a well said comment, so true.

  • Really superb... this is my favourite song, congratulation...

  • Such a amazing song!"

  • @Kreatifcmon Bleak Necrotic Paleness by Xasthur is one to check out

  • @GodOvEpicness Fucking awesome instrumental.

  • I love Xasthur and this song is amazing. About the video... it looks like a video-fan xDD

  • EPIC!

  • The other side of humanity 

  • This looks like my part of the world (South Oklahoma City).

    @DarkenedEmptyWorld

    I agree, this is original. Captures the isolation I feel from humanity, I tend to look at people and feel a total disconnect from the human race. I certainly don't feel human.

  • So... Dark. Nothingness is the only constant.

  • i'd really like to have heard what the guy at the end is saying, even if it's just babble.

  • It'll take me to suicide

  • why is scotty so depressed

  • This video captured the true visuals to the song being depicted, this cannot be considered a music video this is a true expression of a song put into video

  • San Francisco at its finest

  • @SouthernOregonOrgani It isn't San Francisco, it is LA. I live in San Francisco though, so I can understand your confusion. :3

  • @MAJORdorMo1992 I swear, @ 3:17 that looks soo much like down town SF. I think it says Broadway

  • @SouthernOregonOrgani While it does say Broadway, it is actually LA. Type in "south broadway and west 7th st los angeles" into Google Maps and you'll see that EXACT location!

  • its a flame burning inside... xasthur will always be healthy for my soul... by the way: the video coalescence with the music...

  • WTF!, OBVIOUSLY THIS IS NTO OFFICIAL, THIS IS FAN MADE

  • @trexor67 actually...hmm trololol methinks

    

  • Great film man.

    People will pay the price for being selfish sheep.

  • Great work.

  • ridiculous vid, but beautyful music

  • This is the future of Creece!!!

  • Jeg gråter over synet...

  • Ritual "The Resurrection" available now.

  • @ianritual Thank you for sharing this. Pretty atmospheric and depressive.

  • Jeg hater det at han sluttet å gjøre musikk som dette og fortsette xashtur

  • I pretty much like the fact, that the video is in a city.

    I hate it, when all the black metal bands everytime worship the forrest etc.

    

  • great vid; humanity...good ole humanity...

  • wicked shit

  • Amazing. Something like Ciprì and Maresco works.

  • Beautiful video.

    I'm scared of Malefic.

  • Great work during the pass years, thank you for inspiring me!!!

  • Is this postprocessed in MSWMM?

  • Malefic is the only artist that can capture my inner sorrow. it's a shame Xasthur is no more, but i respect him ending it. it's better that the project end before everything gets impersonal.

  • On the contrary xasthur. Your music gives me hope.

  • this is the future of this cursed world

  • los angeles seems to be the most pleasent place to live but fro what i am seeing it seems like hell \m/ hails xasthur \m/

  • @blackmetal66620

    One man's paradise can be another man's hell. I'm sure he preferred Northern California to Los Angeles and I would too.

  • Honestly this is the way I see life most of my days.

  • Talking about depressing.......niccceeeeee!!­!!!!!!!!

  • pure sorrow...

  • i see people like that so often in th e country im living.

    it is really amazing how people can really be living in a parallel world, while others can be just getting in love & stuff like.

    fuck the world people ! and so your lifes !!

  • MovieMaker.. :)

  • DL the audio from this track at thetunify doht cohm.

  • @RobinsonBernston12 - Downloading sucks! Support the artist and buy their work.

  • @maidenslayer

    >implying that you can't buy a digital release

  • @odaxelagniaproject - The guy I responded to wasn't talking about buying a download.

  • The future of the U.S.

  • oh those poor people. where's the address for donations : )

  • This has made me extremely sympathetic for the homeless. They try their hardest to live up to themselves without a place to truly call home. While the "fortunate people" ignore such and continue in their pathetic greedy lives...

  • Beyond its theatrics, black metal really does examine the darker side of the human condition.

  • i would listen to this song particularly during rain time back in 2007/08. never imagined thisll be a video year later!.

  • Is this the only official ambient black metal video ever? Well, I assume that. And what an ass Malefic would be the exploit all those homeless guys' strong emotions.

  • i cried, i have no problem admitting that

  • I have a feeling you and your friends made this video and Malefic had absolutely nothing to do with it.

  • This is just...AMAZING!!

  • @Quintessence696 Check out,,,,ALL THE COLD-(Last Winter)

  • Not what I envisioned . . .

    but it was a good start to something better

  • The camera work could have been a lot better but I see the idea, nicely done.

  • I want to see a Malefic Video Interview!!!! Malefic is a musical genius and is to be admired. Good Work!! Definitely eager to see what he comes up with next.

  • thts very epic thats a kvlt

    hail blk metal

  • I USUALY LISTEN TO BRUTAL

    BUT THIS IS REAL SHIT

    THATS TRUE

    THIS IS A REAL VIDEO

  • Really depressing. I like it. Did you pay them or buy them food or something in exchange for being in your video?

  • @AmpluexCompressa We payed some of them a few bucks. Some of them wanted chocolate milk. Some were just really crazy and we couldn't get them to respond coherently.

  • @ianritual

    Could you perhaps make a documentary, or just write down something about how the shooting went down? I'd be very eager to read that.

  • @AmpluexCompressa thus is life...life is pain and depression wheich is what melefic was trying to convey...life isnt always pretty or fair

  • Comment removed

  • Black metal at its best. Back to the forests. Back to the nature. No humanity. No modern world.

    Black metal bloodrevenge against the fucking society and modern world.

    For too long has existence been existing but we unable to stop it. Too long has the universe and all dimensions survived!

  • Comment removed

  • Malefic should have made a DVD like Sin-Nanna's Striborg did with his Journey Of A Misanthrope DVD.

  • The only reason some homeless people go,... or seem crazy is because they have the comforts and things to distract them from reality removed, it shows what we most likely would all turn into if we had the cord on t.v. pulled and no cars had to fight for or find safe shelter think of ways to legally defend our self cause god only knows what would happen if a cop caught one with a knife or a gun.

  • @famasdan No the reason they seem crazy is because most of homeless are mentally ill dumbfuck

  • @Dravoth got any proof to back that opinion up?

    I know some of them ya see out on the streets seem crazy but you just dont know. many of them arent

  • @famasdan Try a google search dipshit. I also have a social problems textbook sitting in front of me. Why would you make a claim like "many of them aren't"? You obviously don't know shit about the homeless, why go acting like you do? By the way, mental illness isn't caused by not having TV or a car you fucking tool. Use your common fucking sense, why do you think most of these people are out on the streets in the first place? They can't hold down a job cause they're already nuts

  • @Dravoth the funny thing is you still dont know shit and i not doing any searches its you responsibility to back up your own claims, ive known homeless people that are perfectly sane it isn't always due to being mentally competent. some by choice, some by circumstance, some lost their homes to a fire, some were evicted that's not always because of not paying rent either.ppl can get layed off, i am simply saying that they get disconnected from the mainstream.you seem unstable.

  • @famasdan Dude, are you retarded? Though your "you don't know shit" argument is compelling, all you have to do is look at the statistics you lazy fuck.

  • @Dravoth dont call me dude, dude. no but you must be , you really dont know  shit about me my life the people i have known or anything. your so angry about this subject, you must really hate homeless people.

    again it isnt my responsibility to back up your claims for you, show me what statistics you looked at that stats that it is because of mental illness and because they cant hold a job that the majority of homeless people are homeless. your just sterotyping them al

  • @famasdan If anything if the humanity had the cord pulled from the TV we'd all be a lot more sane

  • @Dravoth

    Agreed completely.

  • @mattborel yes it dose, even more so when we have vagrancy laws that pretty much make it illegal to be homeless

  • The homeless are the most human of humans, they are the true representation of our race how society and our laws treat them are a direct reflection and polarization on to modernized society its self, what ever country you are in.

  • Comment removed

  • the beginning sucks... but after that i have to say that this is pretty briliant!

  • America the beautiful...

  • @coalhalo theres homeless every where, it isn't exclusive to America and some choose the life there are appeals to it in some aspects more freedom.

  • I think its one of the best clips ive ever seen

  • wow!!! sickenesss!!!!

  • i could cry...

  • @Grindbone that wont help them

  • awesome, great work

  • great video and song! very different from other black metal videos shot in the forest and where they look like idiots running around

  • 2:15.....goose bumps

  • Brilliant! So real and pure.........

  • just amazing

  • Fucking amazing. Great job, Malefic.

  • America and Hollywood..two different worlds

  • best artist ever. point.

  • This is by far the most sorrowful and melancholic song ever written. Shame he's not continuing Xasthur anymore.

  • @Nuncapitated i was really sad by reading he stopped but i kind of saw it happen after all reflections drained Xasthur just didn't feel like Xasthur anymore

  • @Nuncapitated indeed

  • @Nuncapitated Maybe if we start an angry mob he will start it back up again :(

  • Fucking awesome video. RIP Xasthur!

  • Glad to see Malefic joining with Dragoro. This is an eon..................

  • Hail Robert, Ian and Emperor Dragoro "Julio Luna". This is realism im in full action.............

  • the best video ever

  • Comment removed

  • Comment removed

  • this is great, deserves first place in MTV Music Awards.

  • I have alot of leftover and new footage being shot if anyone wants to collaborate on a video project contact me here. Thanks!

  • @RNusslein1 Can you upload this video somewhere for downloading?

  • @Clientchuk I will work on that as soon as possible.

  • Hail Depressive Black Metal...Hail Xasthur....Hail Malefic!

  • @fuckinrelax so u said "dont talk to me about respecting others opinions", well dude ur words contradict your actions. One, u insulted Clientchuk by calling him an "arrogant cunt", and two, u also asked him if he had a hard time typing through his tears, so YOU dont talk to me about respecting others opinions. Also. you didnt respect our opinions by saying that DBM is pointless.. this gives each and everyone of us to insult you.. ur own words are used against you dude.

  • @desicasyndicat i don't think so man, with all respect for Metallica, they arent capable of making such emotionally crushing masterpieces like that one. Of course, thats just my opinion, feel free to express yours.

  • i like this song, its very soothing

  • @fuckinrelax how is Black metal "high school" trash you ignorant faggot.

  • @fuckinrelax why do others think that u have to be depressed if u listen to this??? it simply means that you have respect for this music involving raw emotion. and even if Clientchuk is depressed, do you know what he maybe has gone through??? no. so stfu and respect other peoples' view and opinions u faggot. and FYI, emos fake depression to attract others' attention, while DBM deals with true feelings.. after all BM is all about being true to yourself and not about "kvlt" or that bullshit...

  • @fuckinrelax this time, not. But overall depression is so tempting... I catch myself on a thought that I simply love it...

  • Political statements in art fag black metal music videos?

    Genius. I love it.

  • It's acceptable for black metal band to have video. And this is erm...different (which makes it better). Not usual dumb forest-themed video, but well...huh, real life.

    @fuckinrelax - you are an idiot

  • @prisonCro its not dumb to have a forest video its about christian abuse of pagan lands and desecration of nature.

  • @DBMUK if that became "standard" and there are too many vids, it becomes dumb.

  • @prisonCro ofcourse but still forest vidoes shuld only be made by those who have links to the forest.

  • hahahahahahaha!!!!! :D FAIL!

  • @fuckinrelax "what strength and victory is there in depression?" To jump high you need to push off from the very bottom. That is the sense in a few words...

  • @fuckinrelax If you were a real fan, you would know that Malefic does NOT uses that faggot's creation like Facebook. That page there is FAN-made. And talking about black metal I can say that this music is not for your stupid head. Because this is depressive black metal and not raw. Well, I think it's useless to explain to you further...

  • I have all the Xasthur albums. Cool to see a video. Make more.
