[Stcs94]

Hey dick fucks do us all a favor and bring ur bickering about a totally unrelated subject to a forum jeez. Non of u r wrong anyway its a fuckin opinion. Trying to make everyone behave and think 1 way is how genocide starts

[bryceiscoolable]

Slipknot sucks you tone deaf little kids

[elekthrasher]

I become deaf?

[mountainhigh88]

Combination of talent and energy--wow!

[Thandiwandi]

hahahhahahahaha I LOVE the fact that there's no sound. this is hilarious. I am laughing out loud in the the library right now. In it's intensity it even has the time to show the famous clip of Un Chein Andalou. HILARIOUS. Thank god for this or I'd be driven crazy with the state of finals. LOVE them. lol

[ieatcerealeveryday1]

lol i just realized there was no sound XD

[busbaker]

Love The Sound....

[eyhexs]

[mac9641]

[2Xensemble]

[becane2cross]

[youseemreallybored]

it's hilarious at the end.

[OnePieceSanjiRobin]

This sounds great!

[harmony0404]

where is the sound?

[Systematixx]

Studio version.

[annihilator108]

[Mindo91]

0:22 .. :S

[mac9641]

needs sound

[ConnorShawMusic]

video and song is sick!!!!!!!!!!

tMv!

[almightyseancore]

fixda.

fixda fernback.

[mopman1337]

lol hello tairy greene

[1blackguitar1]

reading people's comments on youtube give me a headache. learn to fucking get along and be tolerant of other people's preferences. just because you don't like something doesn't mean other people can't like it. i'm speaking to volta fans and slipknot fans alike.

[Pillowchii]

Hear, hear!

[reddefacto]

Agreed! Agreed!

[rob5000x1]

yeah but slipknot sucks lol

[Perronnepe]

@1blackguitar1 u are totally right not because i dont actually like slipknot im going to say is bad for you to hear u can do whatever u want thats what panama ned keep going dude

[Aberinkulas]

Woulda been much better with sound.

[nachike900]

el microfono es un porro gigante .__.

[IceTeaMania]

Fuck youtube and their fucking faggotry

[shebyXxX]

its ruuind!

[AidenCaster]

where the hell is the sound

[WLRJ3]

sellout i mean slipknot sux . drummer is good but it all sounds the same.

[embermage13]

if you hate the band then don't try getting in here and watch the vid..

stay with your oh-so-cool-very-hardcore-very-­metal-yeah-yeah-whatever slipknot dumbfucks

[Systemofawwefan]

How come The Singer Sounds Like A Seven Year Old Alien From the Planet small Penis?

Slipknot Kicks Their ass Any Day

[ASR10MAN]

Slipnot? SLIPNOT??

What are you?" 10 yrs old?

[Systemofawwefan]

First Of All No You Ass Face Im 15. So Shut up Fuck face And No I Dis Like Them

[embermage13]

it's called falsetto you musically impaired moron..

mars volta stays away from the common "yeah i am evil i am cool...scream scream" definition of rock... they create...they don't duplicate like the way your slipknot does...

they think... and not stay with the down beat pinch harmonics growl evil oriented rock...

and that's how slipknot kissed mars volta's ass

and if you don't like the band, why the hell are you watching this video?

[Elliott13371]

LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL

[embermage13]

youre 15 and you spell stupid...and talk stupid as well...what the hell does "MUSSICALLY COMPARED" is it a language in your planet called PLANET SMALL PENIS??

dumbfuck

[Fizks]

Though I do not have a taste for spliknot , I totally agree with you . But how , as one who listen to splipknot , end up watching this vid ? Or do you respect great guitar players in general .

[Fizks]

eso eso eso eso

[nicolasdurruti]

Los dos están en lo cierto.

[Circasurvive20]

music can judge your understanding of life

if you enjoy music from like 80% genres then id say your a winner, if you only listen to metal and pride yourself on this basis, well then congragulations at being a dueche and excluding all other art forms of music that possibly could be of interest. PEACE OUT

i can say i dont understand ac/dc though.. sounds someone shitting their penis.

[SLASHdaROCKER]

This fucking song stole AC/DCs grammy!

[ollie1504]

lol ac/dc sucked cock in the 70s and after phil rudd left everyone realized they were trash. now they are just complete shit.

[primussucks]

ac/dc can fuck off. fucking 4/4 timing bastards. when they write a song that doesn't sound liek the one before i'll give them an award.

[ragingstorm33]

its complicated i think people like the kinda music they think sounds good, and end up not liking music they hear they don't like, i still don't fully understand it

[FatBox]

Whoa... Did I just see TMV and Slipknot in the same sentence? wtf...

[embermage13]

anyways..

there is no point comparing TMV with Slipknot and Disturbed

They are of different styles and target audience so let's just enjoy our own taste of music...

[ragingstorm33]

ahh yes sir, to each his own

[classacteric]

nice

[embermage13]

hey lotus546....cut your metal crap...

omar alone can kick the butts of disturbed and slipknot

you musically impaired moron... TMV displays more talent than every brain you don't have...

mainstreams are for immature fucktards...and youre one of them...

[shaolinkungfu666]

well, i somewhat disagree. I am at a strange position in this argument; my two favorite bands are slipknot and TMV. now, i believe that slipknot is one of the (if not "the") greatest bands on the planet. just my opinion. i will admit that the mars volta are far more skilled than slipknot, but to say Omar bests them all is an exaggeration. actually, Jim root is technically more skilled than Omar, but he isn't writing the songs. i prefer Corey's voice to Cedric's, as well.

[embermage13]

it was an exaggeration...

to counter that lotus546 bastard's exaggeration that disturbed and slipknot is better than TMV....

Jim root is technically skilled, yeah..

but music isn't about technicality testosterone hey-look-i-can-do-this stuff... music is about creativity...and that's how Omar beat Jim...

if you think corey is a good singer, cedric is a far better composer...

sorry...just for the sake of argument

[shaolinkungfu666]

oh, absolutely. Omar is a musical genius, and Jim is some dude with a jester mask and fast fingers. Cedric is most certainly a better composer than Corey, but this is not the issue. i understand that TMV's songs are far ahead of their time, while Slipknot's are right on the mark. i only prefer slipknot because the message of the music is one i can more readily relate to. i, like Corey, grew up without a father. i do not, however, have a dead friend who overdosed on heroine. it's that simple.

[nunomoura]

Jim root is more skilled than Omar? ahahahahahahahahahah

now seriously, please tell me that was a joke

[embermage13]

i didn't say anything like that dumbshit...

i said omar is more creative than jim

read the statement before posting a stupid comment

[nunomoura]

i wasnt talking to you but to shaolinkungfu666 :P

dont you feel bad now? :P

[embermage13]

i guess being pissed off makes you read things in a weird manner

peace man

[nunomoura]

eheh, it's cool ;)

[iliketolivealone]

dick

[shaolinkungfu666]

No, it was not a fucking joke. Jim Root is far more skilled at playing the guitar than Omar. Don't get me wrong, Omar is far more intelligent and creative, whereas Jim is just a fast pair of hands. Omar is a musical genius, whereas Jim is simply a performer. in the end Omar wins, as imagination has priority over ability in music. but this is not my point. i said that Jim was more skilled physically, not psychologically. so no, it was not a fucking joke.

[nunomoura]

I still don't agree with you, as from my point of view, shredding faster doesn't make him a better player. Omar has greater knowledge of the fretboard, and he can link notes sweetly.

But to each his own (it's nice to find someone who doesn't just ansewr F*CK YOU SLIPKNOT ARE THE BEST) (and yeah, stereotypes are like that :P)

[ROAHHHH]

you are fucking retarded if u think slipknot and disturbed are better than these guys..........

[lotus546]

wow the mars vulta sucks so bad i cant believe disturbed lost to this shity song and slipknot too wow the grammys r so crappy they should stop the political bull

[sync0pe]

Disturbed? Slipknot? Please.

The Grammy's would be political one of those garbage mainstream bands won. TMV deserve this and more for all that they've done. They've accomplished more through creativity, innovation, and talent than most bands could ever hope to. Omar alone has more talent than both of those bands combined.

[SuicideXSilenceownjb]

Dude I like metal as well but don't diss the mars volta. These guys can fucking play and Omar is a musical genius. I like Slipknot and I have seen them live and they do have talent, but I am not really a fan of disturbed, but these guys can definitely play circles around slipknot and probably disturbed from what I have heard of there work. So just because something is not metal doesn't mean it sucks learn to except other genres. Hard rock gave birth to metal remember that.

[JewsInUranus]

ugh, its 'accept' you idiot. if he is to 'except' music he doesn't need to learn anything since he already has.

hard rock gave birth to metal yet the noise coming from TMV didnt. Kansas? Boston? Genesis? You cannot put this mess of a band in the same category.

Now, how is it original to rip off bands that some of you volta idiots haven't heard of? I should just start my own rockabilly band ripping off Chuck Berry and Jerry Lee Lewis.

Originality ad infinitum!!

[SuicideXSilenceownjb]

I think you mean "it's" there is no such word as "its." The word "it" doesn't have a plural form. Now seriously we all make typos when we get caught up in the moment so back off. As for what you said you do have a point. As for some of the bands you listed I am not gonna lie I don't listen to them. I should, but I don't. Either way even if this sounds like "noise" to you it's better than a lot of the shit thats out there. Rather listen to this than generic radio bands like "the jonas brothers".

[JewsInUranus]

im typing lowercase \w no punctuations because i dont give a damn you could criticize. my lack of ambition towards being proper.

i came out harsh against you but this is youtube. nothing against you at all.

i have never heard the j-bros. i still dont know who they are other that they are christans.

To be fair, TMV doesnt sound like noise. Merzbow is noise. I would still rather listen to merzbow.

I was never really into psychedelic rock. ill try tkeep my mind open for it. in-a-gadda-da-vida.

[SuicideXSilenceownjb]

Fair enough I respect your opinion.

[pr0mcbullet]

lol idiot

there is a word "its". It's a possessive pronoun

you look like a giant fucking idiot right now by the way

[SuicideXSilenceownjb]

Either way he meant to use "it's" as in it is. We are both wrong. So I consider myself owned.

[TacosRaqs]

If you're just starting to listen to TMV, then Goliath IS really such an amazing album, but once you reach further back into shit like Deloused and Frances and discover how much better off they were with Jon Theodore with them, then it's not likely you would love Goliath as much. At least I found this to be true for myself and a whole bunch of my friends.

[HopAlong23]

They should have gotten a grammy for Televators, Take the Veil Cerpin Taxt, or The Widow. Deloused is a GREAT album.

[ModulationCracks]

so is the bedlam in goliath

[ELBROSE]

All of them are

[dmfdunit]

yah they prolly shoulda but the grammy's are always way late in recgonizing good bands man

[ian7410]

how did this win a grammy?

[3xplosiv0]

BECAUSE IT'S AMAZING! :D

[famousbrillance]

and they just won a grammy for this. i thought i would never see the day.

[3xplosiv0]

Woo!

PWN

[jeanmoreau]

I watch it over and over again. It is the closest I can get to the feeling of being at their gig. I can't wait to see them again. Last time was half a year ago and I still can't get over it:)

[FrozenSnake999]

They should be so proud of what they have created. The Mars Volta is amazing.

[Realzi]

You cant call man ignorant for saying that you are speaking the wrong language on YOUTUBE....... ENGLISH !!!!!!! FOR FUCK SAKE !!!!!!!! THIS IS A ENGLISH SITE NOT SPANISH..... YOUTUBE GET IT ITS A ENGLISH WORD........

[Ridgesayshi]

Youtube isnt even a word dude

[Realzi]

sorry i was drunk :S

[JU4NCAM4NEY]

English, spanish, german, who cares. We're here for the music and not the language. I bet you're just hurting cos you can't speak spanish.

[vegadomis32988]

i fucking hate haters that dogg on spanish people for liking amazing music

[Crobberman]

We don't hate the spanish, we hate their spanish comments!

And now I hate you.

[Misterhenriques]

Crobberman, who cares who you hate. Spanish is a sweet language, not that I can speak it but if I could, then I'd be able to listen to volta thoroughly. So by your logic you'd hate Cedric because he sings in spanglish- correct me if I'm wrong?

[Crobberman]

Yes, when spoken it is very sweet and beautiful.

However, when written constantly in the comment section for videos that aren't specifically 'spanish', it is kind of annoying.

But since Mars Volta sing in spanish as well, I guess you're right.

And of course I don't hate Cedric. ;)

[JU4NCAM4NEY]

dude just shut the fuck up.

[Crobberman]

Your first reply made you seem reasonable, now you're just another dumbass in my eyes.

[JU4NCAM4NEY]

my second reply was intended for this Realzi guy, not you. Anyway, if you think I'm an asshole, I can live with that.

[Crobberman]

Sorry, man. =(

Damn reply-system!

[JU4NCAM4NEY]

No worries man! Rock on :)

[airsoftpunk11]

it would be awesome for my band to open for mars volta

[corymatthews13]

i fuckin hate whe people putt spansish coments on english shitt

[cmathew86]

I fucking hate ignorant people that can't spell for shit.

[daniielleexx18]

thomas pridgen is fuckin amazing. im so jealous

[cchdddy]

this song is really heavy.

[dukeofmystery]

probably one of the coolest bands ever.

[erynlovesyouu]

[Fabyfakid]

Quizás, es extraño que para tener tanta influencia hispana, no han hecho giras en latinoamerica.

[weylercastel]

Revisa los tour dates en su página web, que yo sepa han tocado en Colombia, México y Chile seguro en muchos más.

[FrozenSnake999]

Vinieron para Argentina tambien, ya vinieron a latinoamerica y fueron la verdad..uno de los mejores dias de mi vida.

[alexisegos]

[jazzpsalti]

By the way, that little "my technique kicks your ass" moment at 1:27... how many of you guys just laughed your ass off when you got to that little lick? To me it was just that little bit extra that I couldn't have ever asked for LOL

[brynbobboy]

[jazzpsalti]

[Maztuhmind]

CRAZY PROG ROCK!!!!!!!! the best rock ain't played on mtv

[JELL3O]

Actually these guys played on MTV Canada.

But then again, MTV Canada is the best mtv for music.

[PartyTimeCancer]

mtv sux balls every where it goes

its geographical location will not change its homosexuality i assure you

stupid shit should be canceled & burned to the ground

[jerrypl]

Fuck yourself

[PartyTimeCancer]

hahahaha fucking loser kid

[solargesture]

i dunno if it's possible to make prog rock as long as it sounds like "prog rock". i mean, prog's been done, so how is that progressive?

[Pacarb915]

anything that is progressive (and some things that are not) is called prog rock. basically anything that cant be put into a genre usually gets dumped into prog rock.

[TiesWijnen]

Being prog is like going left while all the chicks and beers are to the right.

[blackflamestudios]

hahaha xD

i beg to differ, but still, good one ;)

[TiesWijnen]

Hehe, while i kinda meant that in a 'not-negative-way'. Like, that being prog is making music with the proper intention, not just making easy songs just to get laid. ;)

[RoZyk007]

Maybe all the chicks and beer is on the right but beautiful women, fine wine ad great music is on the left ;) peace

[megustaestartrono]

youre right about that

[iamstillasleep34]

Because people have some strange need to constantly organize bands into a group so they can say thats the style of music being played.

[Tamadrummer006]

I love the Guitar run at 1:27 with the Drums/Sax over it.

[heyitsmatt25]

haha yeah... that's my favorite part of the song, other than maybe the 8th note pause right before the final chorus kicks in with Cedric's weird off-beat shrieks added.

[drummacvill]

that guys voice suckks

[Ferahtsu]

Where do you get off talking about their second album on a forum for a video of their latest album?

[Gettinghitonattheban]

Is a lot of this improved?
