The End of ObZen

The beginning of the end.
Some fast paced clips of war set to Meshuggah.

Thanks for your feedback btw.

When Robert Oppenheimer witnessed the first test blast of his new invention, the atomic bomb, he muttered "Thank GOD it wasn't a dud".
"Just what God was he thanking?" (W.S.B)

Lyrics =
The grime of contempt and degeneration
Sticky, foul and pungent
- The sediment of our creation
We flourish in this blood-red soil

..And just like the song says.. decay, disgust, disgrace.. has turn into our state of zen.

We can live with this, we can find balance and equilibrium with all this chaos, but we have to fight for it, no matter the blood or the pain it may cause.

Interesting angle. Totally valid.

I just posted a higher resolution version of this video on my channel. Should look and sound better.

[dakoide]

Brutal.

Amazing work on this dude. I love it.

Thanks man. I used the rhythm of the music to pace the edits. I love the way it worked out.

The lyrics of the song really help to emphasis the 'story' told by the video images too. It still effects me when I watch it . (especially as the vocals enter and the faster paced timing section) That bit creates a mild panic effect in me.

The music was perfect for this concept.

sorry for being an idiot, but what song is this? is it obZen?

[BlockedUsername]

Yep, but just the end bit.

Wow man, that gave made my hair stand on end

The video shows just how devastating and disgusting the human race can really be. Sometimes i think that we should be erased from the earth before WE erase the earth.

I got to the point of feeling how obsolete we are, we went SO useless and primitive through years..

And this video also gives me a feeling of panic.. panic of knowing that we all are locked in this place with all these other "humans" we see on the video, and what they are capable of.

I think war is awesome you guys are freaking me out talking shit on it, Meshuggah is a war so way to contradict yourselves, of course peace is better but there has to be war always it's our nature.. you hippies...lol

[faaip0de0oaid]

stupid monkeys

the human race is the obZen

MESHUGGAH IS A FUCKING GREAT BAND!!

[HLGViper]

This video gave me the shivers, both because if it's sync with the song and of both the songs and the video's message. I hate how modern music creates this illusion of everyday life being all that matters, and I love how Meshuggah really manages to smash the truth in our faces.

Obzen and Dancers To a Discordant System are beast.
