My favorite part of the whole thing is when you can see the king looking out at modern society. It makes you think.

An entire society built on the backs of millions murdered and enslaved, built on the suffering and oppression of the weak and powerless. great video and great song!

Slayer: we can make a violent music video Anthrax: hold my beer

My favorite one from 'For All Kings', and I love this album so much. Better than Dystopia and Repentless. As a friend of mine said, Anthrax's like wine - getting better aging

First Dystopia and now Anthrax delivers too, this is a good year for metal

This is the BEST work that ANTHRAX has done in years!!!

This song deserved more attention.

This is their best album since persistence of time without a doubt. It's not anthrax without Joey.

Jesus Christ. This was bloody. This was graphic. This was agonizing. This was painful. THIS WAS FUCKING BADASS.

This song was my motivation to become a better person. Thank you Anthrax.

This is hands down my favorite Anthrax now. Madhouse and Indians are great Thrash songs but this song is amazing

that was brutal.

Man the vocals are amazing.

Everything’s been said, walk among the dead, you can see my crimes, this is my design There’s no right or wrong, it’s the same old song, just keeps pounding me, hits so hard Hell is empty, ‘cause all my demons are here Ever so deadly, hit so hard Darkness in my soul is taking hold and becoming Break me from this hold as I unfold blood eagle wings Darkness in my soul is taking hold and becoming Break me from this hold as I unfold blood eagle wings My whole world built on, bodies dead and gone, you ignored the signs, that was my design And the loneliness, hits so hard in this, grey place that exists, in my mind Hell is empty, ‘cause all my demons are here Ever so deadly, hit so hard Darkness in my soul is taking hold and becoming Break me from this hold as I unfold blood eagle wings Darkness in my soul is taking hold and becoming Break me from this hold as I unfold blood eagle wings I ask you Why, why fight everything? Why can’t you accept it? You can never stop it And I don’t want to try A weak half measured lie I’d rather see it die I’d rather see it die I showed you Why Why fight everything? Not what you expected? Your dystopian epic Of memories are a lie I don’t have to try Unfold your wings and fly I’d rather see it die I’d rather see it die I showed you Why Why fight everything? Not what you expected? Your dystopian epic Of memories are a lie I don’t have to try Unfold your wings and fly I’d rather see it die I’d rather see it die Darkness in my soul is taking hold and becoming Break me from this hold as I unfold blood eagle wings Darkness in my soul is taking hold and becoming Break me from this hold as I unfold blood eagle wings I show you I ask you I show you Darkness in my soul is taking hold and becoming I ask you Break me from this hold as I unfold blood eagle wings I show you Darkness in my soul is taking hold and becoming I ask you Break me from this hold as I unfold blood eagle wings

One of the best Anthrax songs and videos in the past couple of decades. Over six months past the release date and still less than a million views. Faith in humanity lost.

by far the most brutal bloody music video ever recorded, awesome

For those that judged too quickly Anthrax and considered them as the "Little brother of the Big Four", here you go... these guys just released this awesome album and are playing like Gods !

For the people who wonder about the "gruesomeness" of the video, the "Blood Eagle" is an ancient execution method that was quite... graphic to put it mildly.

Can't get enough of this song. it's been on repeat for months in my car ♡♡ long time fan! ♡

This song is a masterpiece. Such a great record. Thrax is amazing! To put out a record as good as FAK at this point in their career is so amazing. This is the best metal record of 2017 in my humble opinion.

best Anthrax song in years

And now he goes to Valhalla, because he did not cry out, or pass out during the Blood Eagle. \m/

Wow, this video is pretty dark and gory considering Anthrax's standards.

Best music video of the past 20 years.

plot twist: the skeleton king is dave mustaine!

This is the pure metal!

Anthrax are musical heroes. They've always made the music that they wanted to hear, and it sounds awesome.

Already 3 years since this video came out and only 1 million views??? I'm really dissapointed.

I saw this days ago and thought, that was pretty cool, but now I can't stop listening. This was seriously one badass song and the video was brutal.

This song and video are absolutely amazing. That intro/chorus riff...golden. Why the hell haven't they played this song live?? I think it ranks as one of their best songs in their catalogue, easily!

*I loved the Joey Belladona voice & guitar riffs in this one from 1 year ago..Simply perfect. Deserves more view.. What a incredible footage **#Anthrax**!*

That opening guitar is amazing.

The more I listen to this album the more I like it. Haven't listened to Anthrax since 'Persistence' came out, time to get back into them methinks. 'For All Kings' makes me feel well nostalgic for the old metal days.

- "Hell is empty!" - Huh? - "'Cause all my demons are here!" - Gotcha! What a beautiful part of the lyrics there.

Im 47 l've followed since fistful you are the REAL trash band thank god for ANTHRAX i ´ve got all your album in vinyl in tapes and cd's i ´ve been playing drums since 15 Charlie as been a major influence on me and still to this day l especily love the old album that riff on medusa is awesome i love the anthrology no hit wonders 1985-1991 can't take it out of my cd player hope to see you soon in QUÉBEC CITY you guy's are awesome a fan forever 😎😎😎👍👍👍💙💙💙

Wow dude this gave me such chills when the King stood at his balcony and looked over the city...and then even harder chills when Brian reveals himself! This is siiiiick.

I actually like for all Kings and worship music better than their older material. It is much more melodic and has deeper lyrics.

This song is phenomenal.

Been listening to this incredibly talented band since I was a young teen and unlike many metal bands and professional musicians these guys are still growing, advancing, improving, and with a proven desire to dig deeper they are going to be around a long long time rockin this miserable fucked up world.

The blood eagle is a ritualized method of execution, detailed in late skaldic poetry. According to the two instances mentioned in the Sagas, the victim (always a member of a royal family) was placed prone, the ribs severed from the vertebral column with a sharp implement and the lungs pulled through the opening to create a pair of “wings”. There is a continuing debate about whether the ritual was a literary invention, a mistranslation of the original texts or an actual historical practice.

That was brutal.

This is one of the best metaphors for our current state of affairs. Amazing video, sad foreshadowing.

Anthrax's greatest song.

Ive watched this video a few times ( because personally I think its one of the only good music videos to come out in a while), and I swear I notice something new each time. For example, the one girl in the cage with the nosering ( Modern woman), and how the skull king has blood on his hands even though he didnt personally kill them. Awesome.

This video and song is what 2016 is about.....

This song is awesome it takes me back to a few dark times of my younger years of staying up for a whole week and not knowing one day to the next day going to work all tore up!! Fighting the demons of this world isnt easy and temptation is everywhere and its hard to say no to them!!!!!!

They outright solidified themselves in metal video history with this one....Dayum!!!

Brian Posehn with the last line for the win. Awesome 🤘💀🤘

Joey never sounded better! Anthrax was always one of my favorite bands. They lost me during the Bush era. Never cared that much for them at that time, i hardly gave him a chance tbh. My interest in them has returned with the past few releases.

Effective video clip I've seen lately. The modern world possesses a bloody history and savagery.

Ragnar Lothbrok would approve!

2016 has been a great year for Thrash and Speed Metal, with the massive sound of Megadeth's Dystopia selling more then 50 million albums, the raw power of New York's finest Thrash Band Anthrax, releasing For All Kings, and Slayers return after the loss of Jeff with a brutal new album Repentless. This is the biggest year for Thrash in decades.

The riff going into the verse is badass

I'm not an Anthrax fan but I keep on coming back to this song. By far the best song of theirs that I've heard.

I always wondered what Anthrax sounded like so i finally listened to one of their songs and i gotta say its pretty freaking good

I really enjoyed "For all kings". So happy to hear they still create awesome music. Besides that, guys still sound and look incredible live. So much talent, positive vibes and professionalism. Much love

Damn, I am usually a fan of gore but even that was too much for me. I think I heard a good song in there somewhere.

can't remember when was the last time i listened to one song probably 100 times in one day!thanx anthrax for this epic tune!

Progress and prosperity made on blood and suffering of mankind, history of human civilisation.

this deserve more listeners

Now I really wanna eat some BBQ Baby Back Ribs. Thanks, +Anthrax

Metallica: What the hell is this? Megadeth: Uhh... Are you ok Anthrax? Slayer: *Sniff* I am so proud of you brother!

Best video on the internet. Metalheads truly have gone soft i see. 2022 and still playing it on repeat 🤘🤘🤘

This video is about a Norse torture method, that the vikings would use on their worst enemies. They would carve an eagle upon the skin of the victim's back using a sharp knife, then hack at the spinal cord to separate it from the ribcage. They would then pull the ribs through his back and spread the lungs over them to represent an eagle's wings.

That's brutal. Whoops metalocalypse reference-

Great comeback ! This album is pure gold, I am so happy to see the band doing music of this enormous caliber after all these years !!!! Anthrax still rocks ! 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻

this is a very very brutal video, but my favorite part of the video is at the very end when the executioner says "that was brutal", and everyone agrees with him.

Can't get this song out of my head. God have mercy on the fallen metallica

this is arguably one of Anthrax's best fucking songs. Joey's vocals are phenomenal as always and the video fits perfectly with the song. Anthrax never disappoint

as a dude that mostly listens to punk/black metal i approve this video

This music video makes my back hurt more than lifting heavy shit at work

A great Anthrax song (fan since 80's) with an incredibly horror video.

this brutal shit hits fucking hard... a masterpiece

Skull king, flawless victory, fatality...

Does anyone realize the guy who said "well, that was brutal" is comedian and meathead Brain Posehn? He's also friends with Scott Ian.

Dear Vikings, Please do NOT perform this on me. Sincerely, A Giant Ape

The level of musicianship in this is AMAZING.

That was brutal!

Already watched & met the band!! Never displeased with one of the BIG4 Lords of THRASH METAL!!!

Deserves way more views wtf

Great tune and awesome video.. It's a shame people don't get history!!!!

hoooooly shit this is so cool and so “what the fuck did i just watch” at the same time

They're back!!!!

I cracked up at the end

This video is amazin, I don't how to explain but I think that talk about EVERYTHING in this world, about all the shit and the way that we learn to live with that, to see it and we'll gonna be the next to taste that shit... I love this song since the first time I heard it... AMAZING ANTHRAX!!!

love the way this video ends. You think it's a reenactment from waaaaay back in time when Vikings pillaged. Then, revealed to be modern times.

Anthrax is my personal #1 favorite metal band of all time. I've seen them live 4 x's in almost 47 yrs of living. And have their name tattooed on the side of my left forearm. My top 10 favorite metal bands of all time are : 1) Anthrax 2) Testament 3) Megadeth 4) Children Of Bodom 5) Iced Earth 6) Demons & Wizards 7) Act Of Defiance 8) In Flames 9) Overkill 10) Exodus + a shit ton more. Greetings from Pittsburgh Pa. Hoping that Anthrax comes back to Pittsburgh Pa when they can.

Straight from Shakespeare, incredible. This song should warn us, warn us of ourselves.

I absolutely cannot wait to see these guys in concert!

I've been listening to these guys since the beginning. They improve with age. Rock the Fuck on ANTHRAX!!!!!!

Such an amazing album (and song).

I like how the executioner washed his hands before reaching into the dude's back

I wish this vid wasn't age restricted. It's awesome,man. Guess everybody deserve to watch it. IT really makes you realize the importance of your life...

cresciuto con le migliori band thrash metal grazie a mio padre. oggi posso dire che posso vantarmi di ottima cultura Black Metal e Death Metal.non mi stanco mai di ascoltare ottima musica fanculo alla disco fanculo alla musica italiana fanculo a dio fanculo a chi giudica male questo genere e poi uccide

Like Testament, Anthrax keeps getting better!!

This video is like how Dave Mustaine thinks inside his head.

I was very happy when they played this song in London cause i thought they were only doing songs of the Among the living album.

This is the absolute most brutal metal video I've ever seen. It beats the Slayer videos by a mile!!!
