Gorgoroth

YES!!!! Black Dragon or Where dead angels lie... or whatever song just do DISSECTION! :D

Where dead Angel's lie live off the rebirth of dissection dvd

helll yesss!! \m/

They absolutely need to do Allegaeon. So, so gifted. I'd recommend Gray Matter Mechanics or Proponent for Sentience III: The Extermination.

well the intro to The Extermination is Stephen Hawking......

Hahahahaha !

Lol

That doesn’t surprise me

Some look at the band mayhem

Agreed. I love this shit, and I work in the care. I'd not mind me being in my own care, but then again, i just think my body is gonna rot after i die. And that my mind will reset to the state it was in before i was born. No biggie, it's just death. It happens to everyone. I took care of my first corpse at 16. Cleaning, redressing and driving to the cool room. What's important is what happens to people when they are still alive. If i could not work in the care, i'd so be something similar to to the lead singer in Waitan. Love all about it. Getting into that state of realease is similar to orgasm if done good. It's a mix of death hate and anger. It's ecstacy and it's a wonderful release to have. I think its human at it's core. It's sound. Also it's just music with some extras on it. Like the bits that pop culture leaves out blank, as not being part of humanity for some reason. Hate is a part of being human.

Ourobori This is from their DVD, Erik explains what the symbol means “The central symbol of Watain is the Crux Tridantes which is divided in two parts. The upper part is the trident, tridantes in Latin meaning three teeth; it is a weapon that in religious lore represents destructive power of divine nature. Whose three spears often refer to past, present and future and the power to control them. It is the dreaded weapon of Shiva’s destructive aspect Rudra, the Olympian god of the sea Neptune, the equious of South American black magic. The mentioned Gods in themselves aren’t always the relevant factor, but rather the divine virtue of their weapon. In shape the trident also resembles the letter W, which of course, is the letter of Watain. It also represents the two horns of the Baphomet, between which the black flame of illumination burns. The lower part of our symbol is constituted by the cross. The cross as a sign of both spiritual transcendence but also the sacrifice of the ego that the path of Satanism means. The cross, the crossing of two lines also corresponds with death and the black work. Finally, this cross is also an X and the three spears on the top the number three, which gives us the number thirteen in Roman letters which, of course, is the number of death.”

Matthew Castillo Yeah. They've attributed some of their own meaning to it and included gods/spiritual entities from other religions into the meaning of the symbol. The meaning I provided for the symbol was the initial on, which holds a lot of parallels with Watains more recent alterations to it (the ego etc).

XIII

The destruction of ego? I think you totally misunderstood the meaning.

Tell him we want to talk to him

I'm sure he's interested, again he mentioned that he rather to have an interview with a believer as they understand the concept of what Watain is into, than all these random people interviewing him and asking him about all these stuff. Umm maybe try and find their agents and book an interview?

Direct me to their agents!

I'm sure you can find a contact email on their official website

lol. I love this statement so much... "so called metalheads" yadda yadda....wonder who you think you are yourself? Do you think you are better than others? Well, good for you. I myself do not really like Watain, as they picked up on something what went wrong thanks to media and built up the career on it. The history of black metal was never aligned to satanism. So, what are today's black metal bands (incl. Watain) is nothing what the idea was about, and calling something pose or a real thing is obsolete considering the genre itself. Satanism or his gods or whatever Erik says are his believes and only his believes (he said that so many times in so many inteviews, you certainly know it) and it has nothing to do with the genre itself again. Therefor judging if he is or not the real thing in comparing to other bands is not the valid point then. Many people don't consider it and goes all righteous such as you with your statement. Vin here is also ignoring it, but he is not claiming to understand all at least ;)

Finally someone with a good starter list...

I disagree with the bathory pick, 13 Candles or something from requiem would be a better starter I think

And some immortal. Immortal & Bathory got me into black metal almost quickly \m/

Fuck yeah!!! Mayhem and Burzum!!! R.I. H Dead!!!

Dissection-Black Dragon dragon

Check out the “ora pro nobis” video

Finland and Denmark got their fair share of forced christianity as well. In Finland, there's a "lake of regret" where the locals would dip to clean themselves of christianity everytime after the "crusaders" came and converted them with force.

Christianity was forced upon whole europe not only the north :) and the "Nordic beliefs" are actually germanic :D

While that is true for many black metal bands, it is not the same for Watain. Their hate is more spiritual in nature and doesn’t really have anything to do with geopolitics or injustices.

@@Roldy16 and slavic. Odin also exist within Slavic paganism, as well as other Norse gods.

So three guys are theistic satanists then?

yes

Yes, they legitimately do believe in, and worship, a metaphysical entity referred to as Satan. Their Satan is not merely a symbol of rebellion, but a metaphysical being, with a multitude of manifestations, and emanations, which is perhaps more easily identified as "chaos". Chaos gnosticism, and anti-cosmic Satanism are two names for the same thing, wherein it's a form of Satanism that ultimately desires the end of the the very fabric of order and the cosmos itself, reverting all existence to Ain, nothingness. Satan as a being itself is only one piece of the puzzle, as many, many, ancient beings are invoked through explorations of the qliphoth, and Sitra Ahra.

My fav song a few years already and Im not sick of it yet, please do the dvd version

All that Jazz the Current 218 is heavily inspired by Christian Gnosticism, YHWH is considered to be the Demiurge. It's pretty much an agglomeration of Gnosticism, Kabbalah, and Satanism.

I second this! or maha kali, where dead angels lie, nights blood or Unhallowed would be amazing!!!

😂🤡

The album that got me into black metal the atmosphere is perfect

uTa_kun watain is real black metal as well sooo..

uTa_kun legitimately the most poser bullshit suggestion anyone could make.

watain is real bm :)

Chronos would like a word with you

Yes, real blood and smells, 100%. Also much of the audience are also real deal Satanist that believe. At the show I was at I saw people of all ages and backgrounds. It was something else .

I envy you

that is a spotlight song but i feel jesus tod is a upbeat song for a first listener to listen to

tommy gibson listen to both seems fair enough

Jesus Tod or My Journey To The Stars. For the riff alone.

Or they could react to one of Burzums calmer instrumental more pagan albums

I prefer be holding the daughters of the firmament

As a sort-of Christian (I'm Gnostic), I love Watain musically of course, I adore black metal, but I actually study their lyrics for insight on what their alien pals are up to. It's funny and sad how they've fooled humans into believing they're gods, but getting back to my point, Their music is a fantastic and reliable resource for my research on ETs and putting the pieces together. As is quite evident, they're jerks. 50% sure Watain's ET friends are Draconians from Thuban (hence Satan being identified as a dragon), 50% they're Anunnaki from Nibiru, because I don't remember which song exactly but he mentions Ea, whom is a Nibiran, and they display many of his symbols - trident, serpent, etc. I can't be 100% at this point. I'm working on it. Probably worse than these guys though is an individual from Alnitak Orion named Ashtar Sheran. That guy according to my research is a monster, and is responsible for much of the horrors unfolding before us and the paradigm of the darkest path (dude that's metal af) this could lead humanity. Keep an eye out for him, he's extremely dangerous and threatening a direct contact invasion.

@@anfie2495 If Watain speaks to you on this subconcious level, you are on the wrong path. RHP doesnt have true followers and fans of WATAIN, because they know its a ritual much more than a live "show". So I will see you both when you find the path and your real truth.

In hindsight, I was in a spiritually sick place in my life when I wrote this. I respect what Watain have done musically, but I do not listen to them anymore. I still enjoy the style of black metal, but I wouldn’t knowingly listen to something blasphemous anymore. I put music and many other things before Yahweh. Now that I’ve surrendered to Him, I don’t need this stuff anymore. I never did. There is plenty to enjoy out there without compromising our walk with Christ.

Admire your idea

Pure contradiction.. how could you possibly be an atheist and satanist simultaneously?

@@anfie2495 there is different types of satanism

@@anfie2495 it’s nontheistic satanism. They basically call themselves ‘satanists’ because it sounds cool. They use him as a figure but don’t worship him, it’s stupid, really.

@@Koshkinayekaterina Extremely stupid. If they think he is fictional, it would be equivalent to The Elder Scrolls fans like myself making a real world identity out of one of the in-game religions. I don't do that, of course, that would be insane. If they think it is fictional, they are applying that same logic. Unbeknownst to them it is all 100% real, and if you are a fan of TES, the character equivalent of Satan is Molag Bal. Terrible idea. The in-game deities are based on real theological characters, whom are indeed real beings, but nothing like what everyone including the guys of Watain have been told by their asshole friends. Wait until you find out it's a longstanding war between extraterrestrials.... hahahahahaha Fuck around and find out, but getting beam me up scottied is most unpleasant.

Reccomend also the serpents chalice, waters of ain, reaping death, outlaw, stellavore, sworn to the dark, and sacred damnation

I've recommended this song before, this exact song. Except I don't think it fits Black Fire because the way the conflict resolves...without spoilers...just going to say I don't think it's intended as anti-Christian, or even anti-anything really.

Yes! Was thinking just the same. The Devil's Blood are amazing. The Yonder Beckons would be my pick.

The first Decibel Magazine tour featured Watain, Behemoth, The Devils Blood, and In Solitude.... amazing show 🤘

HAIL THE DEVIL'S BLOOD

Agree!!!

On the list my man!!

also my favorite song, its a journey of 14 minutes amazing black metal \../

Awww thank you! I rewatched that part..I forgot I sneezed lol -Sori🤟🏻

Iced MOTHERFUCKEN Earth!!!! Alive in Athens version please....it's by far the best version

+1 to that. *Dante's Inferno* needs to happen. With Barlow on vocals (I do like the re-recording with Stu, but the original just trumps it). Alive in Athens version would be fine, too.

Outro was great fo shore!

I think Vin would be moshing and air guitar shredding along to a song like "In My Kingdom Cold."

Patrick Tracy dude could jam out to Celine dion. Lol

Piyush Pawar Not sure what you're driving at. I made no judgement about Abbath's allegiances in the Black Metal community.

Grew up listening to black metal. My friends listen to black metal. and all of them are great guys. Never had any issues with any of them. If you happen to be meeting only toxic people, perhaps you should look at yourself.

Piyush, no worries. Immortal, "I", and Abbath are all bands I dearly love. I would like to see Vin and Sori check out one of their songs out. I think it does belong in the Black Fire show, 100%, but more because of their sound than their lyricism.

Cool, I quit Facebook a while ago though so I can't like your request.

Ok, I always heard they meant it as a human sacrifice, but that it didn't quite work out the way they wanted when the taser didn't work. I just went from memory when I wrote it down. Seems a bit unclear according to the sources for Wikipedia's article: "The motives of the murder were not made clear during the trial. Was it a satanic crime, one of the human sacrifices that the MLO members had talked about? Or was it rather a hate crime, motivated by the anger Nödtveidt and Vlad had felt when confronted with Meddour's personality? According to criminal inspector Lars Ohlin, who led the police investigation, there is no denying that Nödtveidt and Vlad's acts were made on a background of Satanism, but homophobia was also a clear factor, and the Keillers Park murder was registered as a hate crime by the Swedish police.[sr 14] On 6 July 1998, Nödtveidt was sentenced by the Göteborg district court to eight years of prison for assistance to murder and illegal possession of a firearm. Vlad was sentenced to ten years for murder, violence against his girlfriend, illegal possession of a firearm and possession of body parts. All three parties appealed to the verdict.[lo 13]" en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keillers_Park_murder

Juhaliza Now that's really interesting ! How is it in Götheborg these days ? I've been there quite often but haven't been there in 3 years or so.

Thank you for watching the whole thing !

No, Thank you. It was a great video. Also I'd like to add They Rode On to the list of Watain songs you two need to listen to. It's a beautiful song unlike any black metal song you would expect.

Lol already did that with behemoth !

Gintaras Dzedulionis the real offence will be Carnal Malefactor by DSO

That song (and the whole album) is a great insight into their beliefs

Or some GG Allin.

Can’t wait to see them in March! I’m a big fan of them. They are great

Yes, The Waters of Ain is incredible.

Let him know we’re coming for him

Whoa!

VinAnd Sori m.kzfaq.info/get/bejne/d6x9radeuNGYdp8.html#

Strange comparison because you are comparing professional crews with a local band....

Appreciate that

What was the realization?

Niklas Kvarforth would be a good one.

I was thinking of the same song, that would be great.

Blad Empale make sure they do the In The Nightside Eclipse version. Vin and Sori often pick crappy versions of songs and then say they sucked.

Studio release not a live version i hope

Yess! Inno A Satana by Emperor from album in the nightside eclipse

I said that ?

No, Vin is right. There are a lot of black metal bands that just write repetitive tremolo picked phrygian riffs. Not every band can be Mgla or Thantifaxath or whatever, and thats ok.

I'm sorry but you don't listen to enough black metal then. Go listen to drudkh and then almyrkvi and tell me there isn't diversity. Black metal has evolved past tremelo picking and blast beats.

Havok Mgla always trem picks man. I don't find them that original. Are you a soba member on facebook. If not look up secrets of the black arts and join. In that group we don't discuss the basic black metal like everyone else we listen to more then the run of the mill stuff

there is a lot of diversity in BLack Metal... from Deathspell Omega over guys like Watain here, to the whole 90s scandinavic scene, to the new icelandic or east european (Poland alone has so many different sounding bands, besides the obvious like Behemoth... Blaze of Perdition, Furia, Mord'a'stigmata, Outre, Daravaza, Thaw, Infernal War, Kriegsmaschine, I could go on and onscene today)... Greek Black Metal Bands like Rotting Christ, Thy Darkened Shade (they are a whole lot more complex than just tremolo picking, they go the fret board up and down), Acherontas, etc. ... then you have dsbm or pagan influenced black metal like silencer, thy light, drudkh, Nagelfar, Saor... lots of musical and lyrical diversity!

also "Devil's Blood", such a mighty song

Thiago Henrique "stellarvore" is another great song

Brandan McKenzie Yes!

That actually helps!!!

Jacob Frederick. Yes!

Your English is great!

You and i would get along well i think. Emperor is my all time favorite black metal band but Ondskapt is my favorite for the last couple of years. So sinister.

Hi Adam, I'm always searching for black and death metal bands/projects, that stand out from the more 'generic' stuff. Unfortunately, most reaction channels with decent quality always seem to pick the suggestions with the most likes (well, i can't blame them for that, of course., they'll do that because of a reason, so i'm fine with that). But it would be interesting to experience what people think of the more eerie side of black and death metal. And yes, Ondskapt i discovered through the YT recommendations. That band instantly caught my attention, as Emperor did it in the past. Or Darkened Nocturn Slaughtercult (especially with 'Necrocosmic Vision').

Vin and Sori - new subscriber here and recently binge watched almost all of your reaction vids. Whoever suggested Watain (pronounced Wuh-tane, btw) was correct: Watain IS black metal. And the song is pronounced Mal-fay-tor, also btw. And as far as Satanism goes, these guys are the real deal. Eric Danielsson, the vocalist, has an extensive history of being open about his religious views and in my opinion, has as an equally in-depth knowledge of Satanism as Vin does of Christianity. And it's REAL Satanism, not the teeny bopper who spray paints pentagrams and upside down crosses (neither of which are Satanic symbols) in abandoned houses nonsense. Just as you would enjoy an open discussion with Nergal (another musician who 'gets' it), you'd enjoy a conversation with Eric. When you have some free time, look on KZfaq for "Opus Diaboli" the concert DVD that this video was taken from. In between songs, Eric shares a lot of thoughts and philosophies that are deeply in line with what I call REAL Satanism. It would, at the very least, give you some more perspective into Watain and their brand of black metal. I'm typing this from my phone, so please excuse any typos. Also, when you react to bands like Deicide, I can fill you in on all sorts of factoids about those bands for when you.make your next video. I've been listening to this stuff since I was 13, so... Anyway, even though I come from a completely different religious viewpoint, similar to Nergal and Eric's, I love your channel so far as the both of you are educated and aren't afraid to hear things that may disagree with your sensibilities. I do tend to watch the videos all the way to the end, and I often come away with a different perspective or different way to approach critical thinking almost every time. Keep up the great work.

theferaldays I am always on the hunt too. I find alot of good black metal out there but on occasions i find a gem like Ondskapt that has a beckoning darkness i cant ignore. It just draws me in. I cant get enough of it. Oh. And by the way, your english is better than most full time english speakers.

Dark Funeral have been around a while, but they aren't exactly a good band. Watain's first 3 albums are easily superior to anything Dark Funeral ever did.

Not doubting that, even 1349 are better than dark funeral but its just the song "My Funeral" that is interesting to me and especially the D'F with Caligula.

Of all the dark funeral songs....that's your pick

We want them to react to black metal not shitty norse core.....coming from a Marduk fan....OK I will shut up xD

Seriously any of the first four albums and 2 eps are a better choice than "my funeral".

Lol maybe!

I don't know, I always felt like Antestor and Crimson Moonlight were pretty solid bands. I get what you mean when I think about Horde though, they're like a Gorgoroth that went wrong.

Ive seen both Antestor and Crimson Moonlight live as well as Watain. All great shows. I was amazed Watain brought as much of their stage setup to the States as they did.

Hector Saucedo Fuck yeah, all that may bleed us my favourite track, it rips!

Please no. Even the shit on Casus Luciferi is better than Alchemy, it's probably their worst song imo

Jeremiah H. WATERS OF AIN is an amazing epic song but imagine how long a video would be if they reacted to a 15 min song lol

I know it's a long song but it's crazy good. Besides this video was almost 1 hour and 10 minutes long. I don't think Vin and sori are shy about video length

Jeremiah H. Good doesn't describe it ... I watch that video all the time ..... it's perfection ... I saw them live a month ago and was hoping they played it but no luck

Stellarvore is underrated

Something from their last record would be better though.

Ya it wasn’t meant as a diss, it just seems like this guy from watain could be a priest while Nergal would be a devoted follower who goes to church... makes sense ?

I always just thought he was an atheist who hated his Christian upbringing. I know he has a book out probably would be worth a read when I have the time.

VinAnd Sori lol no worries. i know what you meant. i agree in a way with you guys lol. those guys from Watain are on a whole new level. i know they use animal carcasses and blood on set. i went to a BEHEMOTH consert where they performed "The Satanist" in its and its entirety. Orion the bass player took out a crucifix when they were about to perform "Ora por Nubis Lucifer" he had turned the crucifix upside down and spat blood at tge crucifix. lol i was close enough to get blood on me. no lie it was amazing stuff lol

Jason Kramer yeah he did put out a book like i had mentioned befor. its called "confessions of a heretic" its on a Q and A stile book. he (Nergal) has said hes a believer of Thelema.

I've read the book. Nergal states that he doesn't believe in any deities, he doesn't believe in powers of nature superior to men, he doesn't do any rituals. That makes him an atheistic satanist.

Draconian rocks \m/

michael penna I love them I love that genre of music Draconian is awesome band 🤘

they are good very good they rock ... but ive found that as ive gotten older my taste in music has expanded i used to be all about metal and only metal .. but now i listen to all kinds of music genre even 50s and 60s all music now touches me .. accept for one lol im sorry but i just can not get into RAP lol i think when they came up with that name they forgot the letter C in front of it lol and todays is even worse then when i grew up lol todays Rap i feel like i lose IQ points listening to it lol just to give you and idea of when i grew up im 44 going on lets call it 18 lol

michael penna hell yea man they do bro you never to old to rock out or anything same as me to I fucking hate rap with a passion today's rap is absolute garbage I hate it lol I'm only 23 I'm pretty open minded to the genres of metal I listen to all kinds of metal rock to I love older rock music 50's thru 90's but metal has always been my call home lol especially the genre of Draconian that's my all time favorite idk lol but I'm huge fucking fan of Lamb of God there my all fav out of everything ik I'm all messed up with this I hope I'm not confusing confusing you man

I give you that bro yea I still have that name on here but I'm like that I believe in the good Lord and stuff jus not the Bible tho
