[TimelessWinter89]

This is amazing. It's a shame I'll never get to see the original line up live.

[eleonoradiamond]

@TimelessWinter89 Me too :(

[Grozeil]

Just pure fun! I miss Martin but still a great band!

[Zodist]

Martin leave Sabbat and rejoin Skyclad.Cheers.

[VaginalTumor]

@Zodist sabbat and skyclad are both nothing without martin. old skyclad even sounded a bit like sabbat imho

[lqys]

oh damn - i was there. good old time. guess i'm what we in germany call a "alter sack"... :-)

[walkyiermartin]

Fine memories!

[metalviking99]

[Vyrgolaz]

I was there that day.,

...Magic in the air.

Great gig...

..they played twice because o'the absence o'Voivod.

Nice german girls...so good memories about hehe...

[germannihilator]

One of the greatest Pagan/Folk Metal Bands in History. It is great to drink with Bean, George ,Martin and all the other guys :)

[jollywood999]

JUMP MARTIN, JUMP!

Fucking awesome band

[Ecko486]

this is true black metal!

[Glaurung000]

lolwut

[Saphir100]

Lulwut

[pigsito]

shit´s horrible!

[Nniikkool]

great great great song

[euroddwaw]

Saw them in a very very small venue with Amon Amarth and 20 something odd Irish band! best weekend of my life!

[Loftydog79]

Winterfest mate?

[PennyDreadful1]

Martins voice is a bit high in the mix here I think

[Dieccast]

ye true..

[Ulfnarr]

all hail martin I

[iammiktreichel]

This is great music because it is a diffent type of metal.

[Xorgrim]

I was in Wacken in 97 and 98. I saw skyclad there. It was one of the best concerts I ever experienced. Phantastic atmosphere. I am convinced though, that it was p7 and not 98.

In any case, what a great band!

[massi243]

hi, I was there too, and it was 98 :-) there's still Martin's sign on my ticket.... by the way great band and great atmosphere

[skaterboi59]

hey massi243 they are mint arent they

[skaterboi59]

no joke i know 1 one them george the violinist swear down from andrew norton

[marmorosblanc]

This performance doesn't do justice to Martin. He was (well, still is) one of the greatest lyricists in the entire rock history and a remarkable singer. His relative lack of range and formal singing skills was compensated by his sheer passion. Don't judge the man just based on this not very good performance.

[gzr0]

another important thing, for me at least, is that he has a good sounding voice . There are some technically gifted singers who just are crap cos they have annoying voices.

[salemorchid]

great vid.

whos skyclads new vocalist now? (ive only got martin walkyers era of skyclad albums)

[PelleOhlin]

Kevin Ridley. He's actually on guitar in this video. He took the second guitar spot in '98 and has been their producer since they started, too.

[urina2]

hahaha great!

[Thorsigurd]

Small man with great lyrical talent! :D

[bluntgent]

the worst vocal ever.....sorry to comment that...pls do understand me... he may be fairly good writer (not song writer for sure, may be like poet or some sort of low subgenre) i will stop my commment here... i don't want to give this band a cold comprehensive critique.

[tegmaru]

I long for those days. They were the best band I ever saw live in a small venue. They deserve to have made millions. Obviously the sound quality on a youtube video is far from perfect.

[VanBurace]

Martin est un dieu !

[FabioMaglio]

Shit Voice, this ban its strange

[Palanthas]

ROFL Martin a shit voice? Retard. Skyclad strange? Sure, if you lack the intelligence to understand them. Damn trolls.

[massi243]

Martin is a true poet and a true gent, I was there in Wacken many years ago when recorded this video, I'll always keep in my mind the politeness of this little-big genious

[wil2173]

bunbury150... clean your ears out. ok, it may not be his best vocal ever, but the guy is a genius when it comes to lyrics. He is alsoa true gent... met him a few years back and he took the time to speak to people, unlike half the people in bands these days. Martin you Rule!

[DreamingAlaska]

Martin was and will always be one of the best singers for me. He sings with such PASSION... and I can only admire his poetry!

[bunbury150]

Wow, thought I'd check them out just out of curiosity and I'm glad I did, now I'll know never to look them up again. The vocals alone will keep me away!

[althemuffinman]

very very very bad. Best vocalist of all time? no way in hell

[rpgwapn]

Walkyier started as a thrash metal vocalist. What makes him one of the best metal vocalists is his ability to write poems of magnificent quality. Being a good singer but lacking any remarkable lyrics is what defines an Eric Adams, and I am happy and content with the fact that walkyier is the opposite.

[Punkmetaller]

Martin Walkier will and always kickass! I think hes one of the best metal vocalists of all time.

[wil2173]

foxymoxy can piss off. skyclad were brilliant when martin was in them. there just 2nd rate now. prince of the poverty line - check it out. why do people hate things that are a bit different?

[foxymoxy0204]

wow these guys suck ass

[steev75]

cool video. i think martyn isnt a bad singer, he is what skyclad used to be - its always hard to replace the vocals...

blessed be )0(

[PrincesseLudwyna]

Good song but this shows how weak of a singer Martin is (especially when he's drunk).

[WuschelofDespair]

skyclad are really awesome, and I also damired martin's voice, but live it does afctually not sound that good... great song though :)

[LiliBarros]

one of the best songs!

[gzr0]

S K Y C L A D are amazing. 5/5

[asddfkfkfkfkf]

too late. its already become commercial

[Deedyi666]

Darling, may I ask WHAT exactly is ur and other ppl like you's problem?! I'm fuckin sick of people like u who only listen to a band only if it has under 25 listeners. So other people listen to them. BIG FUCKING DEAL U FUCKING SNOB. FUCKING leave us alone. I can't stand ppl like u anymore. Just go back in the rat hole u crawled out of but first just explain this attitude of urs. Put me out of my misery, will u?!

[ranmafrontru]

This is best song for me. Thanks a lot for this video. Viva Skyclad =)

[metalalmond]

wow...98. Amazing. Skyclad..Wacken (wish i could go before it gets full of posers)

[metalstefan]

Best song ever. Thanks for adding this. Just got the Clan Destined EP, and I already miss Martin. :(

[jeff42]

awesome!
