I bet they all were lounging around in the recording studio, and Johannes was like:
"So, guys, what challenge should we try for the upcoming album? Any ideas?"
Kungen, playing with a little paper crown: "Why don't we make a whole fucking album about how awesome I am?"
Tim: "Hold my beer..."
This is the best thing i have read ever
This is my new religion
honestly, im all for it. if he's not sitting on a throne at some point during their upcoming tour it'll be an opportunity missed.
This comment.. greatest thing ever read!
Thanks, you made my day bro.
I keep thinking of that old interview where Johannes revealed that he was nervous to ever do clean vocals and thought his were super weak.
These guys can do anything together. It's super inspiring.
Johannes vocals whether harsh or clean are amazingly beautiful.. this band can pull it all off
I think his clean vocals are excellent! Helluva front man & helluva band!
I've got a fever, and the only prescription is more cowbell!
That's funny as shit man Thanks
The cowbell the FUCKING COWBELL
This band is really underrated.
yea
maybe because they stolen riff from In Flames - Zombie inc?
But made it better
This is the most underrated comment tbh.
i dont know how many times ive heard that
2:26
Imagine if war was like this. You need to play a badass solo to do damages.
*enemy on the other side*
- hey, that sounded really rad
*fucking dies*
Judging by your pfp, you have fucking awesome taste in music.
the king is a bard
"Heroes die young that's fine, I'm still a child inside"
This one lyric in particular just gets to me. So beautifully hopeful and optimistic.
I hear a lot of 80's classic metal in this and I love it.
That's the reason I don't really like the songs that have come out so far for this album. lol
Kevin I love it all, what ever they want to do I'm down for it. I hear a lot of influences that went into this, I even hear A little bit of the softer Black Sabbath sounds in my opinion, I hear classic 80's all over this. I don't see anything wrong in dabbling in classic it's better than dabbling in mainstream. This song by far is the most different, but different is not bad. You don't want to keep making the same tune over and over Not even Alice Cooper did that especially with his new album, I only heard some short clips of the songs but I like them.
Nobody said they had to make it all the same. I like the majority of their songs on the last 3 albums. Didn't really care for the first album. Some of their lighter songs like Tower and Sky Burial are my favorites. I just don't like the 80's metal/Iron Maiden type music.
Kevin I do, I just dislike when people are so quick to be like they need to go back to their roots, they themselves have said they don't consider themselves a certain genre. It's the comments that I keep seeing, but I wasn't going to not reply when someone comments me. Just my opinion not trying to fight, but if you dislike it I don't I love it.
Oooh that's probably why I can't really get into this.
This is the song that got me into Avatar. Didn't like it at first but sometimes the best music has to grow on you. Avatar is now my favorite band. There fucking amazing live.
I love to read the comments that expect any kind of style consistency from Avatar. I hope that the next album after this one is a ska album
miqvPL for real though. Ska would be awesome. People just shouldn't assume that things always stay the same
yeah many ppl don't seem to get what Avatar themselves stated often enough: they are always changing their style.
Ska-metal stuff would be bloody awesome tho. I mean on FnF they did abit of a death-country tune with black waters.
Or the death-country and drop-of-hawaiian mixup they did with use your tongue.
You got dark future apocalyptic. Next one may be the skate one
If our King's reign will be as glorious as his hair, then he shall rule forever!
Glad to see you are as excited for Avatar as we are mate
Rocked Its even better in person. I just came from their concert tonight in San Antonio.
Rocked why do you think he became king in the first place? Because of the hair, of course!
Holy shit, I just realized it was a fight between dubstep and metal

I love how every album has a very different sound. This band is constantly reinventing itself
My favourite part of this clip 1:46-1:59...
that drummer...that moves...
..I like it)
OMG I`m so excited for the new album!!!!
2:20 "YOLO" killed me hahaha
This is really awesome! This band never fails to amaze me. It's risky to change your style that much, but Avatar definitely knows how. They never disappoint.
Silent Assassin
They didn't really change it, they just mixed their current sound with their old sound from the album's before Hail the Apocalypse.
DaretoDream 0 That's true, but every release has a different sound, which in my opinion isn't bad at all
Silent Assassin
Good point. Which is why it's always fun with the new albums! I especially love this new one, since it sounds so much like the old ones!
All hail the Queen and our new King!
DaretoDream 0 Yes, I definitely agree with you \m/
DaretoDream 0 lol this doesn't sound at all like their old stuff
I am absolutely blown away by the depth and humor these guys are putting down.
I humbly bow before the king.
I would watch a movie based off this album any day every day.
The King wants...
MORE COW BELL!!!
HAIL AVATAR COUNTRY!!! ;)
My favorite moments are : a) when we see the look in Kunge's face as his army is sorrounded by the invaders and b) how Johannes turns towards his king to hug/protect him. I am so hype to listen the whole album 🤗
I love that combo of Henrik's bass & John's drums from 2:48 - 3:05 so awesome!
A single word .... PERFECTION
Tim Öhrström used Hyper Beam 3:28
...
Its Super Effective
Kubilay Bozca i laughed harder than i should 😂
every time they say "the king" or "king" replace it with stalin.
935 views. Pressed like before even watching it. Avatar has never dissapointed me.
if you are new to Avatar, please do yourself a favor and listen to the older albuns as well, (at least until black waltz), youre not gonna regret it.
they make awesome songs like you can actually feel it they're so into what they're doing and trying make their own thing you know!! it's kinda rare to find such passion nowadays ugh they deserve more appreciation and recognition
No, that's not "rare" to find that kind of band, you just need to go a little bit off-track sometimes
This is what a true artist looks like. This band is amazing!!
I seriously love everything about this band!
Dominic Sanchez me too
Same here
Me too
Something's wrong with you if you don't
I hate everything about this band
Avatar is the best rock/metal bands I've heard in a long time. They are keeping it fresh and interesting. They slay live!!!!
4:32 - "to be continued'
Me: "To be watched".
Never thought I'd ever be hyped for a sequel to a music video, but here I am eagerly anticipating what "to be continued..." will bring :P
RockinAfr0666 same
Avatar are one of those bands where I don't always like their new stuff at first listen, but from the second listen on I love it. And for people who are saying that they don't like how much thy changed their sound, Avatar are one of the most experimental metal bands of the 21st century. They started as a melodeath band with their first three albums but starting with Black Waltz onward they have had no specific sound.
\\\\\\\!!!!!!!ALL HAIL AVATAR!!!!!!!///////
I really don't understand much of anything in this video, but I DO know that I am likely witnessing the greatest story ever told.
Loving the originality in this one. The album will surely please our glorious King!
All hail the Queen! The Queen of Blades!!
Fantastic song!!! Can't wait to listen to the whole album and see them live again!!!!!!!
Avatar: The only band that can make a song that sounds nothing like them but exactly as awesome as anything they would normally write at the same time.
Avatar deserves so much more credit. They’re amazing.
Liked every song I’ve heard.
I looove it! I love Johannes's vocals on this one. My god.
Glory to our King o/ Hopes for a show on Brazil soon 🤘
VAI BRAZILIAM
I'm amazed by how many different voices the lead singer has
Song has grown on me. I think its the most underrated band in years.
My body is ready for this new album!
I am sick and throwing but I saw that avatar uploaded a new video and I knew I had to watch it.
¡CON TODO AVATAR!
JAMÁS DECEPCIONAN APOYO TOTAL DESDE MÉXICO. 💖
El Zurdo LS89 Yo soy Mexico-Americana,saludos :D
yeii México
I found avatar about 6 months ago and my father listens to them too and we have been talking about avatar,we came to the conclusion that avatar is doing the whole album on the king,hes really fucking good so he deserves it
All these songs are catching me off guard! I'M NOT READY!
Love the riff on this song.
People are absolutly sticking to their first reaction to write down a comment... so they end up with "it"s weird", "it's new" every time. Well yeah it's weird, it's Avatar! and it's a new song, so what do you expect? Knowing the riffs and the lyrics already?
Exactly! With Feathers and Flesh it was the same. All people complaining about how different it sounds but after listening to it a few times, everyone loves it. Will be the same with this one
Bro this is like my 8th time watching
But some people here just to listen to a nice beat its okay my man if they say it's weird or new
can't wait for the album! already pre-ordered!
That guitar solo and Johannes' voice, fuck yes please
God, this is so good
God dammit I love this band! For the King!
wow! im loving this new direction and sound!!! evolulation baby!! becoming a band for the long hull!
1:33 the guy with the cow bell amplifier is everything
i love tim and henriks litter side to side
This album needs to come out NOW!!!
Zac Thomas Right? We needed this album like yesterday.
Savannah Bowler yes, exactly
Zac Thomas Now it has.
Yep, grabbed it when it came out
Zac Thomas What do you think?
Johannes for president!
Nothing more metal than using your guitar shredding to shoot lasers and destroy your enemies in battle.
Never heard of these guys in my life..... How have I lived so far without them!!!
Is perfect. 💕
I should doing my exam notes and yet I'm sat here hyping over the new album... Oh well i can always resit!
Lucarrio1020 SAMMMEEE
Lucarrio1020 YEEE
The Great new horizons Avatar opened to us. Glory to the King! I so keen to hear new album
This song is great but my top 5 Avatar songs are still: Tower, When the Snow Lies Red, New Land, Night Never Ending, and Queen of Blades!
What a PUZZLING selection! :)
~sees tower~ ahh a men of culture as well... (i would add paint me red)
idc what anyone else is saying, I always follow a band because of creativity and the lead singer’s voice. he has a remarkable voice and is very flexible and the reason I fell in love with avatar. I can’t wait for the new album
You've gotta hand it to them: they are creative! The more I listen to this song, the more I like it.
same
Avatar are planting themselves firmly as one of my favourite bands with this latest album
かっこいい!!
I love you AVATAR!!!
I've said this about every Avatar song I've heard, but HOLY SHIT THIS IS SO GOOD.
ALSO, THE MUSIC VIDEO IS AMAZING.
I think its important not to just listen to the song as a track but with the album concept in mind too. I'm really looking forward to the album based off of this and ASOTK
Everyone's hating on this song, it's freaking amazing, it's got an Iron Maiden and Dio feel to it, which makes it amazing, 10/10 Avatar, you amaze me again
I think this is awesome. Maybe I'm just getting older with the band but this has something that just rolls with me
For me the Xmas starts in the 12th January.
This reminds me of old school guitar metal like Iron Maiden or Megadeth. Avatar is a very talented band, and this song is no exception. Good Rifs, good beats, good lyrics.
I can't wait until I get this album. I pre ordered it.Love both songs I've heard from this album so far.
This song made me buy 2 CD's I wanted an Avatar patch and hubby would have taken it..so to keep our marriage intact i bought 2..
Wtf was that?!?!
That was eff'n awesome!
Soft or not as long as time does sick solos this will be heavy as sh*t. Can't wait for the album 🤘🏼
This song has definitely grown on me, at first it seemed very meh, the chorus i didn't necessarily like (Not sure why), but now, it's no bad, it's catchy.
Exactly
it has to do with the eending
I have to agree. I sorta didn't like it but now it's like, I love it. It deserves a Grammy.
Toasty make a better song nothing against you but damn
Michael Walter - what are you saying. all i said was it's grown on me, i like it. i may also didn't necessarily like the chorus at first aswell.
your comment suggests that i'm being harsh, which can't be as i said i quite like it.
Avatar rocks !
I love avatar and I love the way they do what they want. So happy they don’t buy into the bull shit. Fan for life!
Gosh I love this band.
If this is you on your profle picture, damn your eyes are beautiful
I love the vibe, it's got a classic metal feel to me
Avatar put so much into their previous album which was a Masterpiece. Time - creativity - a book that went with it. I am not surprised they scaled things back. Hopefully it still a good album.
Johnathan Barrett This isn't scaled back. It's just something different.
Man this almost sounds like it could've been from the 80s, I actually kinda dig it XD
This is different than the usual Avatar I'm used to but in my opinion I think it's still pretty good love the band like number one or two
So hyped!!! I'm seeing these guys in January!! They never fail to impress me!!!
Kayla M sat night can't wait
I listen to Avatar for first time three days ago... I'm in love of their music... the performance in Wacken 2015 is amazing! Great band! Salute from Chile!!
A band that explores, improves, and delivers! Love 'em
I love this song can't wait for the album
if they are wondering if i would die for Avatar, yes , yes i would
laura delgado As would I brother!
FOR AVATAR COUNTRY!!!
You may have missed the point of the video.
Already bought my tickets for San Antonio, Texas! Yea Ha Can’t Wait! My Favourite Band of All Time next to Paganini 💛
Avatar continues to evolve and experiment.
The video. Is amazing. Kungen you majestic human. Amazing all the frickin way. 🤘
I love this band
I LOVE the sound of this! I discovered avatar randomly and the first song I hear was the eagle has landed and I instantly loved the band. Is so unique to see a band experiment like avatar and I think they do an amazing job at it
This band keeps getting better and better with every album. Love them so bad, Avatar!
Nice to see bands still doing conceptual albums. Nice job guys!
Sevens Secret yes a7x did one too.
Drake Parker dude, A7X are one of my favorite bands ever. They have a mixture of GNR, pantera, metallica, Iron Maiden all in one! Love those dudes!
Same here! Been a fan of theirs since a decade now.
Sebastian Ramirez oh shoot maybe, i did sort of assume because of the titles. Actually, i seem to remember them taking about it when they did a performance at a radio station, but I definitely could be getting confused. Let me know if you find out anything.
Sevens Secret It is a concept album. There was just a bit of confusion over the subtleties of the term.
I want the next video right NOW!!!!!!!!!! Ahhhhh I love you Avatar!!
The King was gracious enough to speak with me after the private audience given at the Machine Shop in Flint, MI. His mustache was impeccable.
When i saw them before they played the song he said "The King Loves You The King WANTS YOU!!" i freaking loved tht concert
YAAAAAAAAAS ON MY BIRTHDAY
I have questions.
A lot of them.
Cydraech to be continued...
Cydraech you could say all of them?
Well, I can certainly ask at least some of them.
1. What exactly was going through their head when they decided to make such a song that is way more soft than the rest of their songs?
2. What exactly is the plot of the video?
3. Why the cowbell?
4. I mean, seriously, why the cowbell?
5. What's with all the tanks?
6. What exactly is the one guy behind the blue magic barrier shooting at the big red magic barrier?
7. Why are average soldiers sent to fight against tanks?
8. Why do the soldiers have shields which cannot at all protect them against the weaponry of their enemies? They would have to be the ones way more well-equipped?
9. WHY THE GODFORSAKEN COWBELL?
10. How can a drummer have so much stage presence, be so good looking and well-fitting and still look like a troll impostor?
11. Why do I still like the song and listen to it? I don't think I actually even like it, but it's Avatar so I like it. Kind of.
Yea so those would be some questions to start with.
Cydraech The song grows on you.
Cydraech not enough cowbell
Great Band, great Album, great Song and last but not least great concept, please Avatar never stop evolving you`re doing a fine job.
Avatards unite! Avatardation is spreading!
