Been a minute since we've gotten that "what in the absolute F**K am I watching" face 😆🤣

@@Dancing_Psycho Lol, yes. It was DEfinitely much needed >:)
I love how Alex is always disturbed by blood in a music video. And here I am a veteran metalhead thinking, "there should be more blood"
And he said it's one of the most graphic horror/slasher type music video's he's seen. I mean, he HAS seen Ice Nine Kills videos, right? :p

@@evabakker exactly
Respect lol
If I remember correctly, the song was written to criticize people sending their "thoughts and prayers" whenever there is some kind of tragic event, but then never doing anything beyond that
As someone whose mom worked in education most of my life, yeah I feel this song
@Prozakhistan It's not at those people. It's at the politicians who say their thoughts and prayers are with the victims but it's not the time to talk about common sense firearm regulations
@Prozakhistan yeah no it's not aimed at the general public who can't offer more. It's towards politicians and super super rich celebrities who say "oh this is so sad my thoughts and prayers to them" and that's jt they did their part now they go sit on their beds of money and sleep with a clear mind
@Prozakhistan that's ok I'm aware hence I am bringing clarification
@Prozakhistan Look up comedian's Anthony Jeselnik's "Thoughts & Prayers" segment. He puts this so well. It's basically the same with what MIW means here.
Chris said new music is coming in August. So Happy 😊.

So, for any fellow nerds out there:
The ancient Egyptians believed that the heart held all the good and evil someone had committed in their life, therefore was needed to determine their after life. So, when someone died their heart would be weighed on a scale in comparison to the feather of Maat (goddess of truth and justice). If your heart was lighter than the feather then you were allowed into the after life. If your heart was heavier than the feather you'd be eaten by Ammut/Ammit, the "gobbler" beast. A heavy heart was considered wicked and corrupt while a light was considered pure and wholesome.
Another point is the term "thoughts and prayers" is typically applied to a completely preventable tragedy after the fact. Typically the solution is so simple, yet inconvenient to someone/a group that throws a big enough fit to get their way. Not saying everyone who uses the term is ill intentioned, but it's often the only response to a tragedy (instead of actually solving the problem)
I thought the two themes combined present am interesting message. The whole idea that you wish someone well, while completely ignoring the actual gravity of a situation. Simply because you're not the one suffering. Or better/worse yet, the one benefitting from the suffering.
I think the way MIW portrayed that was pretty nifty. Another amazing track for me to use to vent my religious trauma.
Just a theory btw, if you have anything to add, or I missed something about the Egyptians, feel free to share.
Yes! You saw and noticed the same religious aspects to Egyptian beliefs as I did and the correlation between the weighing of the heart and feather. Mythology and religious beliefs have always fascinated me. And then the association you placed too with the generic response of "thoughts and prayers" and how bland of a response it really is in such traumatic situations that we see it used in. Seems to be such a generic thing to say to make people feel as if they are doing something beneficial in a time of sadness and or tragedy when in reality they are honestly doing nothing. And realistically. Are they even really thinking and praying? It seems so blasé.
@Tayce Sells it was literally on the tip of my tongue. Thank you Google!
@@jennyjo798 same. The term thoughts and prayers always felt lazy to me. Like "oh, I know this horrible thing has happened and it was totally preventable. So I'm just gonna say that this tragedy weighs heavy on my heart, meanwhile not doing anything to help." Kind of deal. I loved the correlations between the two.
Thank you for sharing! That story of Maat was really cool!
@Awk-wordwriter Thanks for the really insightful description, definitely really interesting to hear about the ancient Egyptian beliefs. Sorry to hear about the "religious trauma", I hope someone you know has set a better example for Christianity as a whole. It's unfortunate how something as powerful and intimate as prayer has been treated like a throw-away phrase for people to use to not act on on-going violence. While I don't have all the answers to everything that goes on, God loves His people and I hope everyone here knows that they're loved! ❤️
Ricky directed it and Vinny’s (the drummer’s) brother was head of photography and helped Ricky out too! And Vin’s dad, brother, and family friend were the ones shooting the blood at them
oh did they release a behind the scenes for it?
@@zwohini No, Vinny was talking about it on his discord!
@@kendallshanks6962 Vinny has discord??
@@hello-sv4uk his server is called sachetti I believe
Most talented band ever
Fun fact, the guitarist of ice nine kills had a cameo in this video and also helped them with the precious album. The former bassist of ice nine kills is also MIW’s bassist now
Unfortunately he is the ex guitarist
@@Null041 wait JD left? I thought he was on hiatus
@@Kim-mu2zs he has left
@@tilz4527 I love motionless but fuck me can they just stop poaching the INK members lol
ua-cam.com/video/hORslp5l434/v-deo.html
This one is my FUCKING FAVOURITE off the album. It’s that heavy shit I crave 🤤
Hell yeah. This song & Undead Ahead 2 are my two favorite songs off of Disguise. I get absolutely pumped up when those 2 come on, especially Thoughts & Prayers.
@@shaddow2022 it brings joy to my heart. Making it heavier than a feather. 🩸
have you heard Nepalm Death - You suffer? :))))))))
@@Music4Life5 yes. Best 4 seconds of my fucking life 😂
@Prozakhistan it’s not as heavy as fucking Cannibal Corpse but it’s still heavy
The reason they're pulling their hearts out is because they are performing The Weighing of The Heart. Ancient Egyptians believed that your heart was weighed by Osiris and Anubis after death to determine if you were worthy of going to the afterlife or not
so beyond shocked with this one, it was crazy! I love you guys! :) hope everyone is having a bloody awesome day. ;) see what I did there?
I love the little line idea right there,hope you have a awesome day as well Alex!
Ahhhh because British... I gotcha 😉
HEY BRO
Since 2018 im suggesting System of a down MIND, PLZ It's been almost 3 years!!!!
Awesome song
Request!!! Ever heard the song "Primo Victoria" by Sabaton? If not, react to it maybe?
I still never get used to the new intro sound, it's not new anymore but it still catches me off guard every video lol
Right?
Fr tho lol
ua-cam.com/video/hORslp5l434/v-deo.html
This song!!!! The BLEGH is strong with this one!!!! This vid is fuckin amazing!!!!!
ua-cam.com/video/hORslp5l434/v-deo.html
The blegh is always strong with Motionless In White
My favorite scene was when he said "open your fucking eyes" and there was a close up on his eyes as they went completely black
Motionless In White is now becoming one of my favorite bands,🤘🤘🤘
Some songs I recommend are puppets 3, if it's dead we'll kill it, scissorhands, carry the torch, 570 and contemptress
@@gizmo4192 I'll check those out.
ua-cam.com/video/hORslp5l434/v-deo.html
Motionless in white Eternally yours!amazing song!
This song is a masterpiece :)))
You must absolutely check out Anaal Nathrakh.
They are an English Black Metal band and fuse elements of
Grindcore and Industrial with Black Metal.
Anaal Nathrakh are easily one of the absolute best Black Metal and Extreme Metal bands on the planet.They are EXTREMELY heavy and brutal yet insanely melodic and catchy at the same time.
Here are some awesome tracks by Anaal Nathrakh-
•Forging towards the sunset
•More of fire than blood
•Depravity favours the bold
•In the constellation of the black widow
•Satanarchrist
•Powerslave(Iron Maiden cover)
•Do no speak
Thanks bro, I Will, sounds cool!!!
That was a badass song. Hell yeah 🤟🏻🤟🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻😈😈👿👿👹👹🔥🔥
That breakdown scared the hell out of my man. 😂😂🤘🤘
I saw on their comments thread on the actual video, someone referred to Chris as the "vanilla Joker". 😂 Amazing! Sick song and and sick band though. 🤘
saw them when they opened for hailstorm two years ago. had no idea who they were at that point and now they are heavily in my rotation of music.
This breakdown lyrically and instrumentally is fucking 🔥🔥🔥
I always forget how much I love MIW. Get reminded everytime I revisit them
MIW will always have my heart and this is my favorite song by them.
As someone who has been dealing with chronic depression and anxiety this channel has let vibe countless times love u dude keep up the vibes
Check out their song NECESSARY EVIL! IT ABSOLUTELY SLAPS
Omg I watched this video the other day and DIED it was so good!!! Love me some Motionless, can’t wait for this album 🖤🖤🖤
One of my favorite songs by them and the video is pretty badass. I was so exited when I saw they made one for it yesterday!

Been a hot minute since I've heard MIW. Ready for some new music

Ricky Olson did a gr8 job with the video honestly
That BLEGH then that heavy ass breakdown has to be one of the best heaviest blegh/breakdown in metal

Lol this reaction was great, motionless in white needs to see this. My favorite band hands down, they always bring the 🔥.

Still great how music brings people from different genres together. All we wanna have is fun 🤟
I loved your reaction to this one 😂. MIW are my fave band. They’re so creative and Chris is super sexy as well of course!! Ricky did a fantastic job directing this one. I’m so pleased I got to meet them all in Bristol, Uk December 2019. Chris hugged me 🥰🥰. And my son got me a ticket to watch their Deadstream 2 just back in June. They are just so great. I’m glad you love them just as much xx many blessings and light to you 🔮✨🌙🕯🕯✨🙏✨🌙🕯🔮🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🖤🖤
You should check out Ricky's tour updates he did pre-covid. They are little treasures. Also check out his short film called " The Peesh" it'll have you cracking up.
Yess his tour updates are hilarious especially the little stranger things parody 🤣😂😆😄

Great reaction brother, the first time I heard MIW was creatures, they're in my top 20.
Richtiges Brett
Alex had to see bloody Chris in the thumbnail before loading the video yet still surprised to see blood. D'awww.
Wow that was wild!!
You have to watch their latest live show. That was amazing!
Hells yeah baddest song on video ever
My first thought of seeing Chris in white was "Aw, Unus Annus lives on."
me: I decide to see what's new on UA-cam 😌
Alex with reaction to my favorite song: here I am🤙
Motionless in White Eternally Yours!!!!
alex: "this was the most gruesome video ive ever seen"
*'follow you' by bmth sweats in the background*
Very happy you reacted to this one, truly epic video indeed.
Would still love to see you react to Dope's "Blood Money" 🤘🏻🤘🏻
Really? I love Dope but that album is...not good..
Lol Alex you know if theirs motionlesss in white I'm not far behind lol i love ur reaction videos been watching since 50k subs
Thanks Alex
I love them ♥️
My favorite video by my favorite band in the entire world FUCKING AMAZING
yo bro i'm from brazil and love your reacts
When I watched this in the first few minutes I was like ok then I was legit blown away by the horror movie vibe I felt from watching the original video
How am I only just hearing this song
One thing I really like is how the two guys in the sort of congregation are some of the producers for Disguise. I only remember JD but I know the other guy helped as well. Also fun fact, if you recognize JD(guy with the ginger beard), it's because he is Justin Morrow's former bandmate in Ice Nine Kills
