"There might be a third I'm not sure I haven't really kept up" OH YOU WISH
THERE'S A THIRD IN YOUR DREAMS
IN MINE TOO HOMIE
IN MINE TOO
YOU FUCKING DID LIGHT UP THE NIGHT, I LOVE YOU
Also thanks Steak Bentley for making me listen to this band
Vídeo so legendary I still watch all of it every few months
Which video the mgs4 one?
@@DocDreamTaker yuppity yup
One of my favorite uses of Light up the Night honestly, it's so fucking dope
God bless Steak Bentley for getting people into Protomen
I thankfully had a friend convert me 🙏🙏🙏
The Good Doctor is such a frickin' good song.
I also love their cover of The Trooper from the album "The Cover Up"
love the cover up, and their night of queen is also amazing!
Acts 1 and 2 being Mega Man rock operas is honestly genius.
Act 3 when?
@@WoodenSwordFighter Soon? They've been playing a bunch of new Act 3 songs on their tour, so I imagine late this year is a real possibility.
@@TRENCHESandTREADS They started playing Act 3 songs upwards of 7 years ago
@@partytom4184 Yeah, but they recent(ish) started playing unheard ones at their shows.
@@WoodenSwordFighterAct III is midway through production now!
It's 2022 and Act III still isn't out
We're getting closer though; they've been playing a bunch of act iii songs in live performances lately
They also just put out another single.
We're SO close
they posted abt it on instagram!
Soon, for real this time.
2023 now 😢 lol
Literally my favorite band, hope they release act 3 at some point in the next 5 years.
Facts, same
I feel your pain. I found them on Hipster Please podcast in 2011 and Ive been waiting ever since. It is suffering.
We’re all waiting man 👍
I've never seen them live, but I bought Act I on CD back in the day and it's SO GOOD. "Unrest in the House of Light" has to be one of my fav rock songs ever.
Figured if there's one band that can turn The8bitDrummer into The8BitVocalist, it'd be The Protomen hahaha
TWRP got me into The Protomen and both are fantastic!
Same
Thanks to phantom racing or something. I found twrp thanks to protomen 😅
@@franciscop1192
He can hear his heart beatin'
Like a piston in his chest
He's a phantom racer, justice in a steel machine of death
He'll be right behind you
Over and over again
He was born to race
He would die to win
Same.
"its 4am why on earth you making chocolate pudding? I have lost control of my life"
Their cover of In The Air Tonight is one of the best covers by anyone of anything ever
Seen them about 20 times and been to dinner with them. Any time they are on the west coast I go to every show. Love them. Panther is such a underrated singer.
The Protomen are fantastic. Hoping they go to MAGfest next year. Would love to see them again.
🤞
GOOD NEWS!
GOOD NEWS!
@@driedink stole my comment you bastard-man
I got the band randomly suggested to me a while ago and it's probably one of the best things youtube has ever recommended to me
I fuckin *love* the protomen. Hearing you play them in 2022 gave me chills
Little late to this one but i heard of the protomen thanks to video game high school(2012) and has been my favorite band ever since.
Gotta love the Protomen, I heard of them thanks to I Fight Dragons almost a decade ago and holy shit they're amazing. Their live album is such an amazing piece of musical work.
Wait, there are others who listen/ed to IFD?! Holy shit. A dying breed.
Their queen covers are the reason they are my favorite rock band and queen is second
Their Queen covers are SO GOOOOOOOOOOOD!
honestly, any song they cover somehow sounds BETTER than the original, such as "Because the night" (originally by Patti Smith) and "The Trooper" (originally by Iron Maiden)
A good 3 minutes of this video has convinced me that the title is a Factual statement.
You know I am going to go out on a limb here and say that there is a sort of sheer absolute unfiltered raw joy that only a drummer can completely demonstrate when playing their instrument. And I am not saying that that joy doesn't exist among the other instrument players, but the demonstration of that? I mean look at this guy! To see a man love what he does the way this man does? I mean if you are even interested in playing drums for God's sake go get a kit and freakin do it! First time viewer, fan forever! Subscribed!!!!!!!!!! Protomen forever!
I don't even Megaman and I LOVE Protomen Act 2. I've been wanting to hear you cover Breaking Out and Light Up the Night for ages, thank you!
What I love about this one is it's just pure frickin' joy, you're just jamming to the music and have an absolute ball the whole time.
Damn. I love these songs. Definitely have to check them out
listen to hold back the night, its their best song
Act II is one of the best things that ever happened in music.
ACT III IS REAL LET'S GOOOOOOOOOOO!
Thank you for the cover, it really did cheer me up. I used to listen to the protomen in school, you brought back so many memories.
Love the protomen , and love you.

I adore The Protomen. It's been way too long since I listened to their albums, thank you for motivating me to give them another listen.
oh look, another band to binge.
I flipping LOVE The Hounds it's my favorite Protomen song
Stumbled on this video. Reanimator would be proud. Hell of a drummer here, and your love for Protomen is so apparent and infectious.
11:00 goes HARD
Sad that there's no Keep Quiet, def their best. Great vid
the light up the night part is SO good
Not including Keep Quiet in between Breaking Out and Light Up the Night?? Wild! The best triptych in their whole body of work.
I LOVE LIGHT UP THE NIGHT
Was introduced to the protomen by your stream and especially love your covers of them, very glad some are uploaded to UA-cam to enjoy forever!
Fantastic video, just saw them in concert a week before the time of writing this comment. Wish that my homies and I watched this in prep for their concert.
After 10 odd years of being a fan, I FINALLY got to see the Protomen live at MAGFest and you guys… this man is right. They are absolutely insane live. You need to check them out if you can get into a show.
Oh my god. The was the crossover I didn't know I needed. The Protomen are my favorite band of all time and I will always recommend them.
Would love for this album to be a Broadway show 🔥
Goodness me too
I now have these on my “Absolute Bangers” playlist
i do love them. also the megas ^^
I remember being introduced to the protonmen by a Metal Gear Solid IV retrospective. After that I looked them up and listened to them heavily. I was able to pick up their collector’s LP. The case was a frikin popup book!
Seen them live twice at a little hole in the wall venue in Oklahoma City. They are magnificent! If you get the chance to see them live then at the end of the set start a chant of "One more song" over and over and then subtly transition to "Vi-et-nam". The drummer was so confused by this.
I've seen these guys live. Fantastic show!
Never smashed that like so quickly in my life
you should totally drum with them on stage!! im sure theyd love to have you at a live show sometime, perhaps at a magfest?
One of the first times I saw you was on your stream where Light Up the Night came on and you put the shades on singing along then you got a Kazoo out and did the solo. For the life of me can't find it on youtube. Was so awesome to see.
listen to hold back the night, its their best song
I just LOVE seeing how much this boy is enjoying the music.
Stay happy, bro.
Very very sad I missed this stream- hopefully I'll catch the next Protomen binge.
They’re doing a concert near me next month with a group called Makeup and Vanity Set and I’m seriously thinking of going. Though, I’ll almost certainly going to the Anamanaguchi concert at the same venue a month after.
Need to listen to more Protomen, literally added their songs to my spotify.
listen to hold back the night, its their best song
The Wolf Among Us 2 brought me here!
This year (2023), I put in 849 hours of Protomen listening on YT Music.
Next year, I'm aiming for 8,760 hours.
Ya got chops, pal. Recently got obsessed with Breaking Out myself.
You made me realize that I never played a single Protomen song on the drums (I had to sell mine to move) and now I'm sad.
After watching this I had to sub! Great taste!!
I absolutly love *Light Up The Night* and *Hounds* . Its sad how unknown Protomen are
Yooo protomen
Neat
I saw them live at Pax Prime in Seattle and it was an unforgettable experience. I've seen Metallica live and I would put the Protomen up there as the cream of the crop.
The Hounds is one of the best villain songs I've ever heard in my life and it's such a pleasure to listen to every time!!!
Oh man, I saw The Protomen, Powerglove, and Danimal Cannon at a show once and it was crazy
I think it's criminal that it skipped right over keep quiet but continues with might up the night
Could you imagine all three being played back to back
Great Band.Act 2 is one of the best concept albums ever.We are waiting for Act 3.Protomen pls do something.Love from Athens,Greece.
I fucking miss VGHS I really hope it continues
Oh my god PLEASE do more protomen
THIRD ALBUM FUCKING WHEN
I have been on a protomen binge lately.
I agree. I have been a fan since 2012 I think
YESSS LOVE THEM
TWRP next!
The best of the best !!
I've been listening since VGHS came out
It's been on my playlist since I first watched it.
Couldn't agree more with the title.
The hounds are my fav song
Yes very good
Everytime I listen to this song, all I can think of is VGHS.
Oh god breaking out is so good!
Greatest album of all time
That is the most american water bottle I have ever seen. Jesus.
Good on you to stay hydrated and all, but.. still. That's more than a day's worth in a single bottle.
YEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSS
Protomen good!
Yeeessss
Am i insane or was there another upload of hounds on this channel that is gone now?
edit- oh it still exists just wasnt showing up in searches for some reason
Know them from VGHS, people should give both Protomen and VGHS the love they deserve
YEEEEEES YEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Y E S S S
Where Act III
so based
huh
DO YOU SEE THIS, ZERO??
I absolutely love Act 2 despite my great distaste for the philosophy behind the overall story. Honestly one of my favorite albums.
This is some damn good recognition for one of the best rock bands people may have heard but not enough have heard of.
