Cradle of Filth | Godspeed on the Devil's Thunder | Story Explained
I used to like Gwar until their bass player decided to insult me. Ended up tossing their records including the X Cops album. They really hate their fans.
Would you be interested in doing a vid on a "concept playlist"? I have one im very proud of, and would like to get a music lover's opinion on it
Me 222222
this video was great to show my older daughter to design her first vest, my partner and I are building battle jackets with each kid with acts we've seen together and a little bit of each girls and our personalities
Thank you so much.
The story/concept is strong enough to be a film.
I think you nailed it! Thank you for making the effort & sharing your thoughts. Much of my interpretation is the sane. The only way we'll ever know if we're right is if Manson's "Holy Wood" novel/script ever sees the light of day.
Is the character Inferno where Claudio Sanchez' second band name Prize Fighter Inferno comes from?
The Breakdown in Drunkship of Lanterns literally sounds like how an overdose feels. I ODd on coke once and every time i hear that part I tear up because it's so frightening.
Watching this to prepare to make a battle vest and when I saw the coheed patch I almost freaked out with happiness! It looks awesome and now I’m definitely going to put a keywork on mine!
Do a deftones video. XD.
Thank you for this. I have loved Coheed since 2002, but never got into the Lore.
Hey J have u thought about doing a video on mars volta album noxtourniquet?
Shit I had no idea that graphic novel was rare...
Im going to a slipknot concert in two weeks, and i have no idea what to excpect. Ive seen clips, and that will be my first ever concert, and metal concert, and id want to get some merch while im there, and i have no idea what tactics or what things you need to do/look out for.
I love your vids JJ, keep it up!!
Just discovered this channel. First thing I notice is the Brandon Sanderson library ❤. Amazing taste
I know I sound like a broken record by now but this is yet another band I have been listening to for the last couple of years without knowing that they make concept albums. If it weren't for you I'd never figure it out since I mostly listen to them on shuffle. Thank you a million times over for all the wonderful videos you make for a dumb, lazy fuck like me. The story on this album is really cool. The story is right up my alley (or... galley? ;) ) Can't wait to actually read the lyrics liek I should've. Seems
Sounds cool, definitely going to check this album out after seeing your video. Thanks
I promise i will watch (still working through your sleep token content), but I'm desperate to know your thoughts on the new Coheed song and the preorder! Ugh..i wish i could afford it. The Sonny goggles look so rad
I will not set sail on Easter!
Your loss. More booty for me then.
Fuck this….
Looks like someone is excited for Wind And Truth :D
Absolutely!!
@@JJMetalhead i came here to say, fuck moash 😏
Crying is GOOD! JJ!!! But hey!!! VAXIS 3!!!! WOOOOO HOOOO!!!
YES!! can't wait!!
Have you read the first seven issues of GAIBSIV Vol. 2 yet? They're so good and you totally called some of it
I read the fist two issues, but I'm a binge reader and hate waiting for the next installment of the story so I'll be reading it soon all in one go. It's cool to hear I was right about some things though! I'm looking forward to finding out what.
@@JJMetalhead I look forward to the video on it when it's run is up. Love the content keep it up
Thank you so much for the explanation! I'm going to enjoy this album even more going forward because of it.
lol I'm doing research for talking about this on my podcast tomorrow night and I THOUGHT I was done... But after watching your video, it's clear I have a lot more BTBM songs to dissect...
Haha I feel for you! In all the concept albums I've covered, these BTBAM videos probably took me the longest to research. And I know I probably didn't get everything. There are some hardcore fans that know way more than me. Anyway, what's your podcast?
@@JJMetalhead It's The Album Concept Hour podcast! (I messaged you on Insta about being on) This is just my UA-cam channel where I post the podcast and other stuff. But seriously, your 2 videos were very important to my preparation lol.
When I heard you say Jesus Christ super star I stopped watching
Aparently after recording was done. They hope goliaths hunger could be satisfied by making the album the vessel for new souls. Thats why they made the vinyl version as a spirit board when gully opened, and the extra 7 inch is a planchet called Mr. Nuggs.
I did not know that! Thank you for sharing. Call me superstitious, but I would be hesitant to have the vinyl in my house.
my battle vest theme is bands that i dont listen to
It was his reinvention after Columbine. And the last great album he made.
It felt so wrong liking this video and bringing the count to 667. Just found your channel, great video!
There are ZERO "rules" other than the ones you allow others to put on you. I dont listen to metal music but i have a vest i made myself inspired by 1970's New York street gang/early NY hip hop culture because vests with frayed cut sleeves were what they were wearing back them - Watch the awesome doc " Rubble Kings" and "80 Blocks From Tiffanys" , or the film " The Warriors" .
I stumble across your videos every once in a while and I always find it fascinating how often I read the title of one of your videos and proceed to have identical thoughts as yours on the topic. We both look at and listen to music in a very similar way, which is cool as people in my life find it quite strange sometimes how much I obsess over certain songs and albums. One more thing that appeals to me about concept albums is how often they are based on epics or have a dramatic theme, kind of like the illiad and the odyssey or even stories from the bible.
Nice to meet a kindred soul! I agree with what you said about the epic story telling in some concept albums and I especially love when they add some historical or mythology references in there. It makes doing the research harder sometimes but then I learn something along the way.
Posted 5 years ago. Well, if this reaches you, I just wanted to say I love this band and the whole lore. My buddy and I were actually talking about it earlier today, and our memories both kind of got foggy with some things, because.. there are A LOT of things going on. I came home and looked up their lore to get refreshed and yours was the first one that came up. This is a nice refresher so far. I appreciate this. Thank you. Edit: Just wanted to add, some of the names I had trouble remembering, like.. "Mayo Deftinwolf"... LOL.
Hello! Glad I could help refresh your memory! It amazes me how anyone watches this video since it's such poor quality and I am SO awkward in front of the camera (it was my first video). I may get around to redoing it one day, but I appreciate your comment!
omg i can write here for hours haahahah
Muy buena lista de canciones, la verdad mi top 3 en lo personal, serían 1. Number city, 2. Blood red summer, y 3. Three evils muy buenas canciones la verdad
Melinda is the reason why I've cum
Personally. I am obsessed with Hushed and Grim. I cannot seem to stop playing it at home, at the gym, on the way to work, etc. There's just something about it. Especially the first five tracks. I will not skip any of them at all. Feels taboo. It's probably the most fun and most gut wrenching album to lyrically belt out along with. Pain with an Anchor is perfect. The Crux has such a great high and low vibe to it and the bridge is perfect. Sickle and Peace with Dailor's bridge is fun to belt. More than I could chew is probably the best overall track while The Beast comes out of nowhere with a twang that hooks you off the giddy up. Pushing the Tides is a solid anthem. Peace and Tranquility feels like it was written after catching love at first sight on a beach bar in Hawaii.
I always wanted to listen to the sequel. I was 20 when the first one came out. I just never got around to it. And now I don't know what to do. I think I'll start by going to listen to your explanation of Mindcrime. I never read the lyrics or anything. I can understand most of em, but I just wanna hear you talk about em. You're a pretty girl, and intelligent, and you like the right kind of music; you should have a lot of friends. I'd be really surprised if you weren't being a little modest there. Another attractive feature; humility. Good luck, JJ😉. ✌🏼😎
I think this is their best record. It has had the most staying power for me, and as a front to back listening experience it holds up best
Harpoons thrust in the sky!
Three minutes into this I jumped out a window to get away from the rambling.
Sick.. great job. Throughout your explanation, providing much for me to learn I simultaneously realized that (if your summary is relatively accurate) I wasn't as in the dark on the whole story as I thought. I had so much info from years of heavy listening but in the form of sheds of visuals and emotions rather than coherent complete sentences. I never looked TOO much into understanding what they meant with their tracks, indulging in the mass-understanding of each album I would allow them all to just be something I couldn't copy but be inspired by, rather. I assumed the band would rather have you enjoy and not disect every piece, but regardless of how accurate your description is I truly believe the band would approve of your work. It's impressive and respectful. So, props to you and thanks for giving more access to the world of such an iconic band.
Thank you! I'm glad my interpretation falls in line with some of what other fans have imagined. TVM is one of those bands where everything is so cryptic and ambiguous it requires a lot of guesswork. Good to hear you enjoyed my version of it!
Some poser telling me the rules of my own vest, that's rich

Isn’t electric requiem where he finds Mary dead?? “Even in death you still look sad”. He then shoots heroin and Breaking the Silence is his rage after that event.
Wtf. Everything that I love is in this video. Sleep token, coheed and cambria, Brandon Sanderson….
Did we just become best friends?
