tourniquet-Ark of suffering

[mdametalhead]

I know this guy who did some roadie work for this band and what he tells me is this guy went to the darkside of things

[MantiaRyche]

One thing I always wondered about Ted.

He`s against every form of animal abuse but still he collects butterflies..

Isn`t that a kind of abuse?

[TVDinastia]

these guys are an influence are too brutal for my 16 years I have only one day with my band I hopefully would like to know them as old people ARE NOT Yeaahh Tourniquet hehehehe! Greetings from LATINOAMERICA

[metalmanxx666]

I remember watchin this on a show called "Moshers Mayhem" in Olympia Wa in the early '90s.......Mark Allen and Willie Baker!!!!!!Mmmmmm wonder if thier still Moshin!!!!

[LordEstranged]

Where is your Mortification or Living Sacrifice? Heavy is as heavy wants!

[VeilOfBlackCascade]

endlich spricht auch mal ne matalband dieses thema an!!!

DAUMEN HOCH!!!

[latinoBeat100]

Slayer move over this Band rock love the message

[TheDctalk77]

id like it so much but is it really true that garry become atheist?

[JoeGibb]

@TheDctalk77 I think he may have privately denounced Christianity, yes. He's written a few books on philosophy and secularism, and given some of his viewpoints I bet he believes in "a" god, just perhaps not the Christian God.

[MercoChannel]

One of best 3 trash metal bands i think

[MTDrumz]

Not that I give a shit what religion these guys are, but this is awesome thrash metal and has a powerful message

[TheRPGguy94]

@Lichtspielhaus234 whaa? The vocalist is Guy Ritter

[war666head]

@Lichtspielhaus234 What's so sad about that? Many christians take what they're told without questioning it, at least now he knows better

[jumpfart666]

So this video was Too violent for eMpTyVee in 1990? Now its all about 16 and Pregnant Super Sweet 16 GARBAGE!!!! Not to mention all the gangster/alternative garbage of the mid 90s..such a damn shame!!! This band really had a cool message alongside crushing shredding thrash metal!!!

[theoriginalwordup]

Good stuff. And fun to play. I wish there were more bands like this.

[TxIntenseRadio]

still epic!!

[JustALIama]

Though I have afflicted thee, I will afflict thee no more - o. Unless by new guilt thou compel Me. God always relieves us from trouble, as it were with the words, "sin no more, lest a worse thing come unto thee"

[iRaGoTiCo777]

3:53 wow

[eyedoctor91]

Tourniquet's first 3 albums are some of the best technical thrash ever recorded. And it's a shame that nobody has ever heard of them, just because they're a christian band. If they weren't a christian band, they're stuff would be put on top alltime metal albums lists no question.

[jadermattos]

Os clipes dos anos 90 é que eram fodas! hehehe to zoando rsrs

Mas Tourniquet é sensacional!

[Jonesmagician]

I don't fuckin' care if they're christians. I'm an atheist and I love how this guys do Thrash Metal.

[Grayman1321]

@flubber what the heck are you stupid

[elohimisjesus]

this is an all time great

[pflubber]

is anyone else seeing Tom Cruise with long blond hair?

[csjackson97]

cool riff!! but whining about the circus won't win people to Christ!

[DentingLeopard]

I'm not a big fan of the singing but these guys are amazeing I'm black and the music they play at my church is more of an R&B style music (gospel) but this is truly music I can relate to thank you

[jonjoensen69]

They confuse animal abuse with use. The pilotwhale live free until they're killed. Thats not abuse. Abuse is every McDonald chicken that live in a cage it's whole ilfe.

[kingvrage]

good metal is good metal be it christian or not, tourniquet will always be in my top 3!!!

[bill01234]

The worst thing I've ever done to an animal is accidentally step on my cat's tail, and I felt awful. I spent the next 15 straight minutes brushing him to make up for it.

I can't even imagine how sick somebody would have to be to intentionally harm something that can't properly fight back.

Animal abusers should be tied up and be subjected to the worst things they've done to animals.

[Ramirez885]

Good video, Tourniquet is one of my favorite Christian metal bands

[sazora432]

@jossy2112

Dont get mad bud christianity is not a religion its a life stile however most people think it is a religion

[jossy2112]

"GOD", i HATE......FUCKING DETESTTTTTT....... RELIGION

This music is at its finest though...

[henriquedotriangulo]

Jesus saves, he is the Sacrifice Live!

Open your heart to Jesus and see his power!

Pray that the Holy Spirit reveals the real work there is to your life, then knowing the truth and not lies that the world imposes. Glory to Jesus!

[RyushuSuperCat]

9 people should go through what those lab animals go through every day.

[pnkpricess059]

Christian metal at its finest!

[ArntorFTL]

I'm not religious at all, but 1:23 is about as metal as you can get!

[KaiDiaNmusic]

Awesome lineup! Wish they had two guitars now and were touring :(

[KaiDiaNmusic]

Awesome lineup! Wish they had two guitars now and were touring :(

[dapianoman76]

that's Ted playing bass (and some rhythm guitar) on this song!

AMAZING MUSICIAN!

[TroubadorToday]

I agree with tylerbecker94....the so called stuff today is so "cookie-cutter". Everything sounds the same, no originality. Tourniquet, Deliverance, Vengence Rising, all had a unique sound. Nowadays, you hear a song and you have 6 or 7 bands that it could be as every guitar, drum, and vocal sounds exactly the same. Oh, bring back originality!!!!!!!!!!

[lakeforestjoe]

eriks the best gook gutiarist ever

[ChaosCompass]

man those are some gnarly teeth

[RaYBaSHKatan]

Ah! I grew up on this stuff! Good times.

[TRuble510]

Stop animal testing! It's wasting perfectly good food!

[elvarwinston]

Kick ass song but the part at 3:16 reminds me of papa roach last resort

[CABLE7154]

@elvarwinston only written 15 years earlier........

[MarsFranke]

@elvarwinston this song is much older than papa roach's last resort!!!!! maybe papa roach is influenced by them....;)

[carlitozik]

God allows us to kill animals! Don't be stupid!

[mpar777]

@carlitozik not for sport but for nessesity

[rattlehead081]

@carlitozik GOD ALLOWED US TO KILL AND EAT ANIMALS...BUT HE DID NOT ALLOW US TO TOURTURE AND USE THEM...

[CoolBreezeClub]

@rattlehead081 PETA= People Eating Tasty Animals.

[7MetalManiac]

Kill it Kirkpatrick

[bloodguiser]

To all those faggots taking the piss out of this band: There is nothing wrong with trying to protect animals. I myself am not vegtarian, but I am against cruelty and torturing animals, and whether this band is christian or not, they make good music. I guarantee a lot of you guys like Iron Maiden, they have christian connections as well.

[MrCUND]

@bloodguiser I just can't understand why they are against hunting.

1) People have been hunting since the dawn of time

2) Hunting is 100% guarantee that you don't eat any genetic mutators

3) Hunting is required for some species (e.g. wolves, 'cause they often attack cows and cattle in my country)

[dirtyhaer]

@MrCUND agree. God, said, kill and eat. All for you.

[XBOX360FanX]

awesome song by an awesome band

[Arkman1754]

Stop animal testing,criminalize animal hunting,animals shouldn't have to suffer because of our mistakes!

[virgo396]

IS IT ME OR DOES THE LEAD SINGER LOK ALMOST JUST LIKE BILLY JOE ARMSTRONG OF GREENDAY.

[edcba321ful]

About 3:20 Papa Roach stole that riff for Last Resort.

[hurakannaranja]

@edcba321ful WTF PAPA ROACH ?? THIS SONG IS FROM 1990's .... -.-

[edcba321ful]

@hurakannaranja You obviously didn't read this comment. I accused Papa Roach of plagiarism, not this actually good band.

[hurakannaranja]

@edcba321ful i did, but i readed bad :) W/e

[emirotube]

Dios ha muerto..pero el puto mensaje de sta cancion es ttalmnte válido. excelente tema..

[doctorshifty83]

Wow I thought luke easter only sang in the verse and chorus, during the chorus he just pops out of nowhere! I had no idea the guitar player did second vocals. Sucks MTV banned this from Headbanger's ball, thats waht rumor had it. Amazing this song is 20 years old now!

[william76950]

@doctorshifty83 That's not Luke Easter, he didn't join the band until Vanishing Lessons and Gary Lenaire did alot of the lead vocals until his departure.

[doctorshifty83]

@william76950 Thank you. I did'nt realize that.

[jamesmx08]

great song....for a great band...morepowwer to you guys

[jrothra]

While I don't agree with this Christian band's perspective on animal rights, this video shows some good guitar playing.

[headbanger6ification]

ted kirkpatrick is one of the best drummer in existence. listen to the album microscopic view of a telescopic realm its either the 6th or 7th track that has an insane drum solo he had to be influenced by dave lumbardo being that i can hear some lumbardo techniques in there. tourniquet really gets there point of views acrossed. plus they are not boring like contemporary christian bands (not that contemporary is bad i do like sonic flood). i just like heavier music.

[greenvoodew]

\m/  \m/

[SpetsnazChaplain157]

These guys did a good job on this song. But weren't animals made to serve man?

[TheWeekle]

@SpetsnazChaplain157 To serve, not to be abused.

[william76950]

Look at the Native Americans ,for example, they hunted buffalo and deer for food and material to make clothing and other items- no part of the animal was wasted and even then, they killed only as many animals as they needed to supply the tribe throughout the winter and left the rest to multiply.

Hunters nowadays just try to kill everything that moves, which is unnecessary and wasteful.

[Metal8Lover]

HELLEVERYONE,

The Metal Militia will be attacking Lady Gaga's "Bad Romance" video

on 9th of July... Remember to dislike, put a comment and flag .

We need your help to destroy this modern autotune music that

has ruled the world. Copy paste this comment on every good music

video such as: Metallica, Tool, AC/DC, Rolling Stones, Slipknot, Megadeth,

Guns n' Roses, etc.

-MM

[AnesthesiABand1]

@Metal8Lover The Militia isn't attacking any more, only supporting and trying to popularize metal videos. Of course, if you were actually in it, you would know that.

[Metal8Lover]

@AnesthesiABand1 thats it im not in on it at all alex told me to do it so i did and i fact i think ive said this before

[TYLERBECKER94]

I miss the days when Christian metal was actually cool, now its just a bunch of trendy kinds who think they are all cool with their "Hardcore" this is good shit, makes me like Christian metal

[NoFaceNowThatsAce]

@TYLERBECKER94 They've got some good metal bands still today, but you're right, nothing compares to Living Sacrifice, Tourniquet, Extol, Royal, Precious Death, and all of those others we've long forgotten in our iTunes libraries. Demon Hunter, Maylene and the Sons of Disaster are a few of the good ones currently around. I've heard about Living Sacrifice getting back together though. As for the others, RIP :'(

[ChimeraeBF]

@NoFaceNowThatsAce I heard tourniquet would release a new album in the end of this year!

[NoFaceNowThatsAce]

@ChimeraeBF Really? That would be great! I love to hear when these bands come back to make some new albums after years :D Is it on their website or in the news or something?

[ChimeraeBF]

@NoFaceNowThatsAce on their homepage they say they recorded a new album in august and that they would probably release it in the end of this year.

[NoFaceNowThatsAce]

@ChimeraeBF Sweet, thanks lol

[ChimeraeBF]

@NoFaceNowThatsAce You are welcome ;)

[MattHatter]

@TYLERBECKER94: I couldn't agree more. 

[guggsdugrass]

@TYLERBECKER94

todays christian bands are sucking teenage bands, without any skill, singing from first love and some spiritual shit of their sucking lives...

[jkats14]

@TYLERBECKER94 For what it's worth, the metalcore bands brought me here...

[Catmonk201]

@TYLERBECKER94 this makes you like christian metal? its not even about christian things its about saving the animals. Who cares? Did you know if we didnt hunt the animals population (i dont mean together each animal individually) would outnumber humans? ITs called animal control. They made it into a sport for fun. Now torturing animals is a different thing. They shouldnt be tortured for pleasure, but if needed i think we can spare a rat or 2 for testing.

[TYLERBECKER94]

@Catmonk201 I do agree, but I was saying I like their music, and their lyrics a lot better then the ones they have now. What their singing about is related To Christians, but I was talking about the scene in general. This band gives he hope their is bands doing in RIGHT.

[Catmonk201]

@TYLERBECKER94 u ever heard of radiou? check out the website, best christian stuff around. also air1 (dont know there website).

[Christianrockrockz]

@Catmonk201 I don't think hunting should be for sport unless they are used for food. If you just kill a deer and throw out the meat and hang up the head, it isn't right. It also isn't right to make raccoon hats and fur coats. I don't mind if animals die for our food like chicken, beef, etc. but being tortured before they are killed is just wrong.

[Catmonk201]

@Christianrockrockz ud rather have deers all over the place? running across the road causing wrecks etc etc? And fur coats are really rare jsut fyi no one makes them except designers. most of the time its fake.  but really without control wed be over run guess if u wana die a deer related death thats your problem but ill leave ppl to their hunting.

[Christianrockrockz]

@Catmonk201 I'd rather have deer be used for food instead of people mounting their heads and leaving the bodies who knows where. There are people that do this.

[dantechick]

@Christianrockrockz venison.................yummmm­mmmmmmmmmmmm, hey and deer is kosher, so God would approve!

[garywingrove]

@Christianrockrockz if you're gonna kill it for food you should use the whole animal and make clothes too. that's what the indians did. they believed that you shouldnt waste any of the animal. but yes tourture is 100% evil!

[Christianrockrockz]

@garywingrove I didn't mean don't use the fur. I'm just saying if you are going to kill an animal use as much as you can to make tools/food. I was saying that some people just kill a deer and hang it's head and let the meat spoil somewhere. I think that is just wrong and wasteful.

[UndeniablyInsaneGuy]

@Christianrockrockz and also the most common ways meat is processed is extremely wasteful/gross. Most of the meat you will get will have been essentially tortured before death - terrible living conditions, absurd genetic modifications, not natural food (i.e. corn for cows instead of grass). It is also processed horribly. Beef is washed in amonia, ground up, excrement can end up in meat and it is extremely wasteful. Lol had to watch a vid on this in school. not sure how old it was, though

[shadowromeo22]

@TYLERBECKER94 I WILL BRING THOSE DAYS BACK, WITH SOME HELP...MAYBE... I LL TRY

[doofus666]

@TYLERBECKER94 I totally agree when i was a kid this stuff was pretty edgy, Though i don't go to church now i did then, and people looked down on me for listening to this, as well as Deliverance and Circle of Dust. Those bands could actually hold their own with their secular peers.

[7gtscapi]

the people that abuse on animal are just fags

[william76950]

Animals should only be killed for the following reasons:

1: To feed yourself and your family if you have a family

2: To create clothing that is actually useful.

3: If they are rabid or suffering beyond recovery.

4: Self Defense

[KaytiiUchiha]

@william76950

I think reasons #3 & #4 are the only reasonable ones...

[william76950]

@KaytiiUchiha Well, to each their own, right?

[KaytiiUchiha]

@william76950

eh, i guess...

[Metal8Lover]

@william76950 i aggree but killed the right way. No liveing being should have to for any reson be skined alive. it's just wrong

[william76950]

@Metal8Lover Agreed.

[Metal8Lover]

@william76950 loves yous!!

[ImpendingDoom1147]

Old but cool

[Greenbull1972]

Tourniquet is one of my favourite Metal bands. When I see this video, I always have to think about how fucking cruel humans are.

[Blacklistedstudio]

Great band although I'm not familiar with a lot of their older stuff.

[THRASHFKINFILLETS]

AHHHH!!!!!! FUCKIN' THRASH!!!!!!!

[kornudito]

sad but true

[kornudito]

great! i love the chorus

[axemaniandevil]

the message is good but darn...this band needs a power boost and a new singer.....

the muic is okay but the guy who sings is raping my ears......

christian or not......this songs is horrible......kick the singer out of the band...for the sake of human welfare.

[damstudiocr]

@axemaniandevil This band its awsome... averything... listen to another songs of them... and shut up ur mouth

[damstudiocr]

@axemaniandevil This band its awsome... everything... listen to another songs of them... and shut up ur mouth

[SambaKilleri]

poor animals.. :((

[killi89]

From 3:16 on is where Papa Roach stole that riff they used for their song Last Resort.

[BuggritHall]

Not exactly 'Countdown to Extinction' is it?

Oh and there is no god, no devil, no afterlife just oblivion.

[Salvadorguzman47]

this video and the band is awesome pure metal man love it

[blinknot666]

Damn, this is cool!

[bubbatha]

Tourniquet rules. I love this band.

[jackwilsontube]

oh shit... grat video.

[SixT4]

This is perhaps the most unintentionally funny video ever. Good song though.

[10072018]

@SixT4

It is pretty lame. Weapons of our warfare was the only professional looking Christian video I can think of.

[ShreddinThrash]

sounds like slayer alot. shitty chorus

[jackwilsontube]

Ted KirkPatrick is a beast

[jackwilsontube]

actually ... there are a lots of fagets abusing in animals .. at least in my country : (

[CensoredVideo]

_

]V[ETA]_ ]-OREVER!!

[TheJonatas1992]

Great video, strikes many bands of black!

[mikeblackmetal]

What a demencial guitar solo!!!

[herreraparallel777]

Amazing line-up.....

I miss this sound.....

[davevis]

STUPID SCIENTIST!!! Love this song but everytime I watch this video it makes me ANGRY, hate looking those poor animals suffer

[CensoredVideo]

Some people just have it stuck in their heads that people are the only things that have feelings. They don't have a say on their lives, being taken away just to show what we already know! THERE IS NOTHING RIGHT ABOUT THIS!!!

[ColdHardMetal]

What if I were an animal that had no say on my life, to be taken away for some stupid reason...

[rachelthemachine]

mpresionnte

[CensoredVideo]

Very true, armrpeercing

[BOUKEBANDSTRA]

well that guy was one time on stage...

i dont know but if u find an tourniquet video where they let see some live shows then u have to click on it..

then u see at one of the concerst with an normal big podium u see him doing things

and i dont know his name :P

[BOUKEBANDSTRA]

yeah that would be awesome... if guy ritter can sing still... and if gary lenaire wants to play with an christian metal band... cuz hes not christian anymore.. i hope he find his faith back

[tdog4891]

I got to see them in concert with original line up too it was amazing from back in the days.

[BOUKEBANDSTRA]

@ flamepeace yeah the best christian metal band in the world..

but i miss guy ritter and gary lenaire now.. :(:(:(

gary lenaire became an atheist i read 3 misn ago :(

my hart hurts.. :(

[MetallicA555]

haha in read that 3 mins ago too lol

[farejja]

MALDITO ANTROPOCENTRISMO!!!

[farejja]

boa música, porém o video é triste, acho que é como o jonnyyeahuhhuh falou, em vez de ficar testando em outras espécies de seres que nem tem o sistema imunológico igual ao nosso, poruqe não testar em seres"humanos" como serial killers, traficantes e outras porcarias vivas que não servem pra nada na sociedade?

[MsShauna87]

The music video was made in 1990, the leader of this band is ted, also the magician guy is just a friend of the bands, i dont know his name but he does his own thing, i dont believe he ever put on a show either, so thats why you couldnt find him online.

[mxracerB553]

Who is the magician dude handling the birds at 2:05? I'm trying to figure out if that is a younger criss angel. Who is it? I must know, it's driving me absolutely nutz? I hate not knowing things like this. SOMEONE HELP ME PLEASE!!!!!

My wife says I sound like a girl now, but really i have a compulsion and I consulted the google oracle with no answer, so please, someone help me for the love of bob. Who is the dude with the birds at 2:05??!?!?!?

[cxazy313]

how old is this vid?

[flamepeace]

RESPECT THE GOD CRIATION !!!!!!!!!!

the best CHRISTHIAN band of the world !

chers from BRAZIL

[jonnyhyeahuhhuh]

no animal testing--TEST ON SERIAL KILLERS, RAPISTS, CHILD MOLESTERS, HUMAN TRAFFICKERS, DRUG LORDS, DESPOTS, & OTHER HUMAN-SHAPED GARBAGE!!!!!

[squid262]

@jonnyhyeahuhhuh Wow...

[dudester21397]

@jonnyhyeahuhhuh i give you a thumbs up, but all these jerks out there would say its "in-humane"

[Belligar6kommando]

@jonnyhyeahuhhuh Wow, i never think that, this idea needs to be publish in all websites, good luck!

[BeckerC1972]

@jonnyhyeahuhhuh

Test it on idiots. You've won.

[dave1sfx]

@jonnyhyeahuhhuh

Not to mention other human-shaped garbage like Justin Bieber, Lady Gaga, and the Jonas Brothers.

[psl122]

TED KIRCKPATRICK and AARON GUERRA RULES!!!!! they are gods!!!!

[gothic666star]

grande tourniquet!!, cuando tenia 12 años alla por el 2000, tenia una mochila de esta banda, mis compañeros se burlaban porque decian que no existia, ellos no existen!

[blacksheep25251]

This video was banned on MTV... how funny....

[Theocracy17]

Amazing!<3<3<33

[psl122]

impressive!!!!! THIS BAND IS TOO GOOD!!!!!!

[pamelapap]

im an atheist... i think religion is nonsense n just superstitous. but i do appreciate this band speaking out on the issue of animal abuse. no one NO one should have control over someone's life.

[IslandOfYoshi]

amen , freaking amen to that XD

[GrowlanserDragoon]

I love Tourniquet, but this video does make me sad to see such abuse

[prince1h2m3b4l5m]

the singer sucks but the rest of the band sound sounds like metallica

[TohtoriJorma]

Hahhah your ass sucks!

[Schneider10101]

But vegetarianism isn't healthy as it lacks a lot of vitamins and proteins found in meat.

[agrijag]

Vegetarian: ancient Native American word for "Bad hunter"

[lostrealist25]

lol

[tolleck]

Ted kirkpatrick is one of the best drummers ever.

[jkcpalmer]

Yes he is.. check out K517 and Veinte Borrascoso

[salsadude1]

this is the first time iv heard a song from this band... AND THE DRUMMER IS A FUCKIN BEAST ;D

[luiscarlosxxx]

no, last resort sounds like ark of suffering, this song is a lot older!

and yes tourniquet is one of the greatest bands ive heard.

im not christian, i dont believe in jesus haha

[cauffey]

I hated God, Jesus, and church in general for a long time, NOBODY was going to tell me what to do. Then life knocked me on my ass and I had only one way to look, up. No matter how far or fast I ran away from God, all I had to do was turn toward Him, and He was right there to pull me out of the sewer my life had become. There was nothing I could do to stop Him from loving me, however hard I tried.

[AngelAnnihilation]

Same here bro only i was a church going "christian" and the other 167 hours of the week i hated God with every thought and Action, till i fell on my A-hole and had no where to look but to Him.
