Strapping Young Lad - Far Beyond Metal

[TheHvymetal]

ahhhh, slipknot is ok, but not metal by any stretch ....megadeth, dimmu

[psyckla5]

i liked the part where oderous came in and sang

[wertuy70]

tardsk8r *If Devin had a baby It would be the devil

[Whataclock]

Far beyond metal.. What happend to "Far beyond driven"? :)

[spacegarnaal]

@Whataclock that is, and always will be pantera's best album EVER, , just

and far beyond driven is something very unique , the first REALLY heavy album to get to number 1 lol

[Whataclock]

@spacegarnaal Indeed.. :).. Without a doubt.. :)

[BowelofSTFUANDDIE]

Youtubes commenting should be divided into 2 parts. Those who have something to say about the actual video and the flame war/trolling/retarded section.. I love strapping young lad.

[Sinsta13]

Nobody else getting the Children of Bodom vibe from this? No? Just me eh? -.-......... Great song though. SYL \m/!!!!!!!

[TheMalikTwins]

@Sinsta13 SYL influenced Bodom actually. I notice a ton of similarities between the bands, but SYL came first.

[dyingfetus6661]

i gotta big ass slipknot s up my arm but you dont hear me bitching aboot slipknot on A FUCKING STRAPPING SONG!!!!

[tardsk8r]

if dimmu borgir and dream theater had a baby, this is what it would be.

[6Blood6Reign6]

@tardsk8r if dino burger and dreamy tittie had a baby, it would be the f a g g g e ss t baby ever! those bands suck! don't dare to compare SYL to any of those psedo-metal bands

[copsey27]

Keep your opinions about Slipknot to yourself... Because, guess what??..... No one cares!! :)

[jqpqmga8]

You all shut up about discussing bands... I like slipknot, it was my first band i knew, but strapping young lad is also brilliant... All you people who like to discuss about this lame stuff need to open there eyes and listen to more metalbands. Dont compare metal with eachother. I guess Slipknot and SYL are chilling backstage when they need to play with eachother... Its stupid to discuss. everybody got's his own taste. And thats good. BUT WE ARE ALL METALHEADS! Keep on fucking supporting metal!

[johanmcmalfucka]

fuck slipknot Devin Townsend is a God compared to those fucking metal by numbers pussies ever seen a 12 yr old repping a DTP shirt? I havent

[TrendOver1]

Un ode au métal...

[luiszirger]

why are we talking about slipknot? this is a metal video, slipknot=not metal

[pcrvg0808]

POSERS stop arguing about taste .

This is beyond the need for taste , this is METAL

[Myxamatosis75]

@TehGuyRandom Srsly

[DasGrammarNazi]

I love the Dave Brockie guest vocal with the "Maggots" segment. GWAR ftw.

[BreakApartAndDivide]

So why are people talking about Slipknot?

[newpariah]

i'd just like to point out that just because slipknot isnt as metal as another band does not constitute a lack of exellence. they know how to put feeling into a song. and if you've ever been to a slipknot concert you'd know that they put one one of the best live preformances ever. no disrespect to syl at all, i fucking love these guys but putting down another band on a metal video because you know people will agree with you is juvinile

[bullballs96]

Anyone notice Oderus from GWAR doing the line from Maggots?

[GanjMonster]

This is true, no holds barred, balls to the wall metal!

[ianw3123]

does he say cunt at 2:31 ? lol

[smittybang]

@ianw3123 probably lol he says it a bit

[Ckasady91]

I liked slipknots first album. the song surfacing is pretty bad ass imo. I DO love me the fuck outta some Townsend though :p

[spacegarnaal]

the fact that slipknot is totally different metal, is making me not understand this discussion of you people, im not gonna compare korn with devil driver either

so stop this stupid fucking discussion and listen to this goddamn awesome music ffs

[ugledyr]

Stop dissing other bands and enjoy the music. It's not that damn hard.

[Boo6661000]

SlipKnoT is bound to end up in the '' SOON TO BE FORGOTTEN LIST!! ''

[megageek2031]

@Boo6661000 Slip WHO?



[MetalBanger3]

at about 3 minutes in, that sounds like the singer from GWAR, amiright?

[mangagaara]

@MetalBanger3 too right

[metallmilitia666]

@MetalBanger3 It is

[Tradjectory]

Why are slipknot event being Mentioned, I like Slipknot but I have to agree, compared to S.Y.L They're Little kids.

You never hear people saying, Oh that's heavy Like Slipknot heavy. But you do get people saying Fuck man that's heavy, Like S.Y.L Heavy,

[elkkijedi]

@Tradjectory Slipknot is heavy in their own way. Nothing to do with SYL. Case closed

[Tradjectory]

@elkkijedi I wasn't saying they should be involved I clearly said why are they even being mentioned

[rene1OOO3]

@elkkijedi they aren't "heavy" in anyway. Fuck those pussies.

[thevampireari]

What is Slipknot even doing in this thread?

[severus420]

Slipknot was heavy sh*t when they came out, now they're not...times change bands evolves (sometimes i.e. - Nickelback). Slipknot is more fun to listen to than all these good cop / bad cop bands ripping off Killswitch Engage and Shadows Fall

[wheredarknessislight]

@severus420 not... really.. I have more fun with Shadows Fall than All Hope is Gone, psychosocial aside.

Everyone knows there's better music than those bands, anyway.

[Tradjectory]

@severus420 THALLLLLL

[symmetricevil]

Lets get this straight, when talking about real metal there's no need to mention Slipknot in the presence of SYL. You wouldn't say Marilyn Manson in the same vein as Cradle of Filth... that's just lunacy, Manson and slipknot are in a whole other category which is American Nu-Metal. They 're completely different

[desolatefix]

devon townsend is a fucking metal genius 

[Kirmeli69]

Why the hell there's always a Slipknot vs. someband fight going on in the chat? Nothing wrong with Slipknot in my opinion. Both SYL and Slipknot are awesome bands and have nothing to do with each other...

[SatansRapists]

@Kirmeli69 No. This is metal. Slipknot is shitty hard rock. Comparing them is irrelevant.

[TheLogicStick]

Oderus makes this song so much more weird. LOL

[AdigraV1]

HAHAHAAHAHAHA.Maybe you have not heard some of serious slipknot songs

[KellyOnDrums]

wait why is everyone talkin about slipknot??

[goldencalf]

@KellyOnDrums Because dude, a bands talent/skill is directly proportional to the number of tee shirts they have on display at hot topic.

[OGTheDemon]

@goldencalf hehe i like that...

[junkfoodftw]

@KellyOnDrums because people keep thumbing up comments about slipknot 

[emman1m1]

shit i was gonna to write a comment but seeing the name slipknot just took me

my will.

[seanmacman15]

ahhh why did oderus just use the same lyrics from maggots? :( oh well its pretty kick ass ahah 

[alfredthegr]

The funny thing about this band is that they are able to hold a comic approach while still being fucking awesome.

[MrAzbill]

It's Oderus dude.....

[MrAzbill]

it's Oderus dude.....

[Kolenschopper]

If anyone of you heads apriciate this, look up Melvins bizare metal.

SYL is as amazing!!!

[MsCunt]

I love Otterus in this...just sayin'!!!!!

[intricut]

2:18 raises fist in the air with a mean face!

[TheOriginalArchetype]

Devin Townsend definitely qualifies for Heavy Metal sainthood.

[wheredarknessislight]

Real metal fans would listen to everything and not bitch. At least they don't sound like the corporate crap coming from Disney and Nickelodeon.

On another note, one of my favorite songs of all time.

[jaredqwerty]

@wheredarknessislight no. real metal heads will listen to what is good.

[JavezX]

@jaredqwerty But everyone has a different idea of "good"

[Neurot5]

When the gods play metal, this is what it sounds like.

[Glad1kun]

This song will never get old!

[PyroBitch123]

Devy-metal

[JakkaLakkaDingDing]

@PyroBitch123 YESH!

[sahthebanana]

ladies and gentleman, drew shit the bed!

[TheXan23]

God; synonym for Devvy.

[PyroBitch123]

@TheXan23 No, He's something else entirely. hmhm

[CorruptedPersona]

Gene Hoglan a drumming god? fuck yes!

[bcasey25raptor]

this is amazing, makes me proud to be canadian.

[PyroBitch123]

@bcasey25raptor You gotta take it when you can get it right?

[nightmaredaemon]

Don't see why people are dissing other bands really. Is it wrong to love Strapping Young Lad, but also like Slipknot? Cause let me tell you, I like both of them, just means you have a wider range of what you listen to. If you don't like other bands, just keep it to yourself. I see other people in the comments saying the same thing xD Just keep it to yourself guys D:

[HotRodSixString]

Damn Devin took a solo in this one . Thats quality work Mister

[Wildchild880]

slipknot is fucking kids shit!

[Tidelsson]

Devin is the apotheosis of what a metal musician virtuoso is... He dwells at the metal god's hall. He's talent is immesurable, his music make everybody stop and listen no matter you like it or not he can get your attention. During he's career he shifts between trash, hardcore, jazz with instrumental passages with his projects and bands... He's on of a kind! Enjoy

[chimera667]

You wanna take your lips off his cock for a moment and look at the music objectively? I also think its rude of you to generalize on such a large scale. I know several people who wouldn't want to listen to him.

[Butchurus]

thats still fuckin metal, damn good metal, far beyond my ass

[lute760]

Slipknot do gay porn with Lars Ulrich,Kirk Hammett,George Bush,Barack Obama and members of the Illuminati at the Bohemian Grove on hot and humid summer days.

[chimera667]

Blow it out your ass you stupid fuck. I hate Slipknot as much as the next guy but that doesn't make them the worst band in existence. Quit being an ignorant little fuck and accept the fact that other people like other kinds of music.

[lute760]

@chimera667 Ok.I won't insult you for liking Justin Timberlake and Fankie Go's To Hollywood.I know their music changed your life and means a lot to your butthole because it helped introduce you to the wonders of KY Jelly.

[chimera667]

I would normally reply by insulting you back, but your comeback is so pathetic that it would feel like overkill. Why don't you go be butt-hurt elsewhere. Nobody here wants to listen to a little kid bitch about how much better he is than everyone else. Piss off.

[napalmcoffee]

@lute760

Shit I hope they didn't to the grove , if so that Cliff was sacrificed

[MrIggyIck]

GWAR owns slipknot for one, plus they're in this song. gwar is better than this still haha. big big fan.

[8Biohazard5]

Devin for FUCKING PRESIDENT

[MissWaywardKitty]

this song always pumps me up



[patasgreen]

slipknot cat even be compared with this great band

S.Y.L.R.M.H.A

and "slipcrap" can come and kiss my hairy anal

[UberSoldatz]

@patasgreen Lol.

[XilEm4rc11]

fucking awesom band !!!

[mkklmann]

If there's a number one ode to masturbation, it'd be this one! RAUUUU!!

[Seligsuper]

Mmm... I have to say that I actually loved "Mate Feed Kill Repeat" by Slipknot.

[dewbius]

Dood, accept it, Slipknot was never any good.

[BloodyCannibalCorpse]

@dewbius YES FINALLY THANK YOU! \m/ ^_^ \m/

[JFuzzman]

@dewbius haha I used to like them haha ew. Their songs got old so fast and I thought they had something going if they weren't so god damn fucking repetitive on before I forget. blah most of my friends still like them.

[doobiesnax]

@dewbius

my pillow is harder than slipknot

[progressivereviews]

@doobiesnax I Laughed for about 10 min. Good Job Sir!

[Metallicat8888]

@doobiesnax and heavier

[UberSoldatz]

@MrP0ThEaD420 A dick and a pillow can't be compared, unless you are born out of incest.

[haxbox7]

@doobiesnax I lol'd so hard

[vergil385]

@dewbius dude, just listen to what you want, if you dont like a band then keep it to yourself, everyone has their own tastes, and I for one like Slipknot, theyre unique and talented in their own way as many other bands are talented in their own ways too it just depends on taste of the target audience of bands.

[DarianVincent123]

@vergil385 Slipknot unique? lololol

[vergil385]

@DarianVincent123 dont be an ignorant moron, I hate it when Metalheads hate on other bands, just fucking listen to what fucking band you want and like ffs -_- dude I dont go around saying oooh Opeth owns Strapping Young Lad or something, why? because I for one respect everyband and I learnt that hating on bands is a waste of time, I love any kinds of genre of music that sound good to me, I dont give a shit if you guys call me a fake metalhead...I aint a fucking label! I am me!

[Guitarded270]

@dewbius So is mine, it's completely made up of dry jizz from how much this song turns me on :'D

[chrisjustice07]

@dewbius Good thing we have you to compare metal bands. Cause you totally sound like you know what you are talking about.

[fmbighair]

I've only heard a live version of this song on my old syl cd which is from 12 years ago but this sounds like the studio version, sounds really clear and new. Did they re record this recently?  What cd is this on?

[xxpeniskingxx]

@fmbighair The CD Far Beyond Metal is on is "The New Black".

[blacktestament88]

would all you maggot fucks go fuck yourselves? slipknot quit being good when they went pop in 2004 with subliminal.

[stonedhero100]

@blacktestament88 hell yes dude fuck those slipknot pussies

[tomatooverlord]

@blacktestament88

Slipknot was bad they day the idea crawled from the primordial muck (suck).

[Drewb18c1]

hmmm i think this song could use more energy

;D

[UberSoldatz]

@scorpionkyler Like I said: Diehard fans cum sponge.

[brotherskooby1]

Great to hear Dave Brockie on this one

[stonedhero100]

genes a fucking beast i can see why brendon small wanted him for dethklok i dont think anybody else would be right for the job KILLFOR METAL !!!!!!!!!

[UberSoldatz]

Now in the halls of the necro lord

Flash of fear when he sees my sword

Raped his woman, smoked his bone

Leave a booger underneath his throne!

Best lyrics ever. xDDD!

Fucking true on some parts.

Syl, I love ya guys! \m/

[ValterBlackDemon]

@UberSoldatz AGREED, Oderus is the shit!!!

[crazyclown622]

the last note is epic lol

[eliten0Ob]

If you don't headbang to this song, then you are officially a fag. ,|,,|

[GM0530]

@eliten0Ob  AGREED

[UberSoldatz]

@scorpionkyler Joey isn't talented, he just drums a bit of the mediocrity.

[RancidToe]

@UberSoldatz

Saying Joey isn't talented is seriously stupid. I've been drumming for 6 years and Joey is still shit hot compared to me.

[UberSoldatz]

@RancidToe Yes, but if I may say, 6 years of drumming on your disney drumkit is not a big meaning, 6 years doesn't need to have "skills".

Joey can't come further then mediocred drumming.

And alot of people know that, only the difference is, "Die-hard" fans like you shove your face so far up his ass that they actually can't see wether he has skills or not.

[RancidToe]

@UberSoldatz

Oh, nice subtle insults. but how about backing up your argument. It's pretty obvious if you listen to the older albums then the new ones he has improved a good bit over the year and is a great drummer. All you need to do is compare him to every indie drummer out there and it stands out how superior he actually is. There are a good few drummers better than him but that doesn't mean he isn't great. Pearl kit btw.

[RancidToe]

@UberSoldatz

Also:

"Every drummer is fucking talente"

"Joey isn't talented"

Complete contradiction.

[UberSoldatz]

@RancidToe Like I said, Joey isn't a real drummer, try to get the conclusion right.

Joey is being switched by a other drummer because he can't get one style right.

[UberSoldatz]

@scorpionkyler Every drummer is fucking talented in his own way.

If a drummer can fit into multiple subs of metal/rock its a good drummer.

I haven't seen much shit from Joey.

[jennacideXXXmetal666]

hashaha funny song! i love it

[JebusGrist]

ODERUS! THE MAGGOT MASTER!

[hellman100]

I love this band, (Gene Included)

But Buddy Rich takes the best drummer to ever live cake.

[SideWays8Productions]

@scorpionkyler yea, guess who voted. people who actually care about fame and popularity. guess who participated. people with the same intentions. drummers who want fame and popularity. good, mature drummers will just be like 'fuck that im playing music idc bout the fame" cuz they know theyre the best drummer they know.

[studentkombat]

@twe1vebones i would too man

[SideWays8Productions]

@scorpionkyler just shut the fuck up. joey is a shit drummer, he's just cymbals and fills. Inferno can kick the shit out of his emo ass any day. so can hoglan. just get the fuck off this video you fucking poser. fucking maggot fangirl.

[imarealgamer]

@SideWays8Productions

He's an alright guy though. Shame he can't play.

[SideWays8Productions]

@imarealgamer agreed. he may not be the best musician skill-wise, but when it comes to actually writing the music as a whole, hes pretty good. all of his work is pretty good combined.

[AudioInjectedSoul11]

CAAAANNNNNNNNNNNNNTT WAIIIIIIIT TO FEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEL IT AGAIINNNNNNN!!!!!!!!

[vorheezy313]

Its funny to me how Devin looks like Pickles from Dethklok. And Gene ended up playing for Dethklok.

[callitkarma93]

fuck this shit

[porosimetro]

@callitkarma93 you are a shit! a big shit without brain!!!!

[CrashOveride001]

FK YA! GO CANADIAN'S! This is good Stuff >:D

[ichimarukills]

@scorpionkyler hahah your so mad aren't you?! Ahaha stupid maggot.Your a fucking FANBOY!

[lahbl]

@scorpionkyler He's a great drummer, better than most. However there are plenty of better drummers, and fanboys don't understand this.

[CrashOveride001]

@lahbl Matthias Voigt from Heaven Shall Burn ties a cinder blocks to his leg's and practices with the double kickers

[lahbl]

@CrashOveride001 I would just get some lead anklets (the ones for working out) but that's pretty damn cool.

[ichimarukills]

@scorpionkyler Because i dont like metal that sounds talentless to me also its called the comments secrtion so i8ll say whatever the fuck i want.

[ichimarukills]

@scorpionkyler yopu dont give a shit and thats why u replied ahahaha go crawl back in the ground FAGGOT im gone.

[touchcoma]

@scorpionkyler NO i was merely stating an international fact, but i guess it was a bit random like devy and who doesnt like being random

[TheStarbuck666]

far beyond metal what can i say but long live dev

[ichimarukills]

@scorpionkyler typical maggot shit talker.

[ichimarukills]

@scorpionkyler id like to see joey actually drum something better than mediocre.

[DamageInc0rparat3d]

Most bands leave out key words in lyrics for you to fill in for yourself. But the verses are pretty clear: They are the general opinions of most metalheads in the world and nothing they say can really change that accepted viewpoint. Plus, the operatic chorus and the 'KING RAUL' bit are both about masturbating which is what most men do 'when they were just boys'. As an assumption, obviously.

[CarpathiaS]

dont let the music ill

when were the fucking antidote

[xioxio9]

any idea who King Raul is?

[aero3132]

I don't know who King Raul is, but apparently he likes beating off and is a wank? O_o

[MetalPersian]

This band reminds us all of us why metal is the better genre.

[ArkanRow]

@MetalPersian Ironicly enough... this song is a parody to metal.

[MetalPersian]

@ArkanRow Well, this song is the best damn parody of metal I have ever heard.

[ArkanRow]

@MetalPersian Hell fucking yeah.

[rockrenegade]

@ArkanRow It features a dude from Gwar if you noticed.

[Jonnietheemocidal]

Fuck you Youtube trolls.

SYL is the shit.

Don't argue about pointless crap no one cares for.

[DamageInc0rparat3d]

The lyrics suggests this song generally is a piss take of teenage metalheads.

[lahbl]

"Now in the hall of the necro lord,

Flash of fear when he sees my sword,

Raped his women, smoked his bone,

Leave a booger underneath his throne!"

Epic.

[Legacyxero]

I can only feel bad for a good band when they recognize the fact that their fan base is a bunch of kids arguing over joey jordison. Thats you youtube commentors, you all fucking suck it. more.
