I met George in 2009 right before a CC concert...he's the kindest dude ever. We had a little talk about music, took pictures, he signed our records and invited us to join him at the bar after the concert to have a drink. I offered him some of the wine I had and he said "I never drink before a show"...with that voice :D Then they took the stage and started with Evisceration Plague. The place went absolutely crazy in like 10 seconds. I still got chills when I think about it. I remember I was impressed by how big he is...I mean, this guy could easily kill someone with just his hands. I'll never forget that night. One of the greatest bands on the planet. Not a fucking bad album in the entire career, including the new one.
They can't possibly be worth that much are they? Death Metal isn't that popular is it? It'd be really cool, yes, but I had always thought in order to have that kind of money, you need at least a #1 song somewhere on the charts in a more accessible genre, like what Led Zeppelin does for example. Cannibal Corpse is #1 in Death Metal the way I see it. So I think they are worth at least 1-2 Million each over their career. Which is pretty damn good for music in general. :)
gredangeo Google it, thenetworthportal.com/celeb-net-worth/bands/cannibal-corpse-net-worth-career-assets-biography/ Their net worth is 55 million. They are almost a 30 year old band. CC fans eat up all their merch, albums, shirts, box sets, vinyl collections. There are a well marketed band. I know its crazy but not unbelievable. Last I heard, their appearance fee is 25k/show. I worked at a concert hall when they came to town a couple times.
When all you do is scream your head off everyday and play music about violently murdering people you get all the anger out of your system and all you’re left with is fuzzy feelings.
i always wearing VERY VERY OFFENSIVE t-shirts, the Dead Zombie eating Pussys other Zombie, eating human flesh blood. Dicapitated Human Body. and Name of that shirt is Cannibal Corpse!
BokorTheVoodoo Sorcerer Nice! The three Cannibal Corpse shirts I would be stoked to find is The Skeletal Domain, Evisceration Plague and Butchered At Birth.
The number one thing I’ve always taken from this is how awesome it is that Corpsegrinder is such a proud supporter of his craft. Not heavy metal - ‘we play death metal’. Exactly how I feel. I love death metal more than any other music by miles and have for over 20yrs, and I proclaim it proudly. Just always makes me a bigger fan of CC to see them be not just one of the best at playing death metal, but also at supporting it.
That's where I saw them the first time. 17 years old going off to another country with much less strict alcohol laws to see some of your favourite metal bands for the first time, disastrously fun!
Love this older footage! It is just straight forward man, they do it for the sake of playing brutal metal and they are in fact the death metal titans! They prove album after album that they will not let up and we love that about them. In my opinion, one of the greatest bands to see live. Cheers Banger \m/
I love Cannibal Corpse lyrics but I wouldn't hurt a fly. It's called art. Art is about pushing boundaries, self expression, and inspiration. This band is just awesome to me
Cannibal Corpse is simply the kind of Death Metal band that writes music and lyrics based on gory topics for FUN. It's like Iron Maiden would sing about ancient history, for instance.
I love that Webster ended the interview with the word Disgusting lol its a word I always use when describing something I really love musically whether its a riff I'm trying to write or listening to a song within Death Metal , ppl tend to think when I say "disgusting" that I mean it in a negative light but its actually quite the opposite, means its fucking brutal and that I want more! XD
I find it hilarious when people give CC shit for never changing their sound, but also shit on 'tallica and other for doing something different. Either it's okay for every band, or no band, personally i love CC and don't mind the fact that all their albums sound similar, it's good music plain and simple
I totally agree. It's the same thing with AC/DC for example. Love it or hate it, it works for them. They are beyond popular and people like it so why change their sound if it works. CC is brutal and they are still on the same formula and it is awesome. I don't mind the least either. If I want something a bit different, there are plenty of other great bands. I think there are few bands that can manage to pull off having the same sound and still be great
I agree. Most bands that try to experiment with another style (AND waste an entire album with said style **cough Suicide Silence**) fail MISERABLY and end up taking a left turn and getting a less than desirable reaction from fans. Experimentation only works if you are 100% certain it's going to blend in and work with your sound and not drift way off from what your established sound is. Cannibal is one of the most consistent bands in their genre. They're so far into their career that they don't need to drastically experiment with anything. I'd rather a band just keep busting out the material they're good at and be consistent than try to be five different things at once and wreck their reputation/ signature style and turn into a crapostrophic mess
Ah, good ol' 2004. I went out to my local record store and bought "The Wretched Spawn" album that year. I couldn't wait for the release! The store had a little post-it note covering the graphic stuff, and it made me want to buy the album even more! Good times going to local record shops. Its a shame nobody really does that anymore. Hail Cannibal Corpse! \m/
The look on George's face when asked about the lyrics is priceless. Love every interview with Cannibal. They look like they will rip ya to pieces but soon as ya talk to them they are all like WHASSSSUP! lol
It's good to see the full interview from back then. I'm lucky that I got Cannibal Corpse to sign my copy of Metal: A Headbanger's Journey back in 2015.
I absolutely love just how original these guys are. No filter, no censorship, just plain honesty about their music. Whenever I think about death metal, Cannibal Corpse comes to mind first. All hail. \m/
It’s cause the camera has a wide-angle lens which warps/distorts images towards the edges of the frame. His head warps too when it gets in the far right side of the frame.
1:15 - pause it... is it me or is Corpsegrinder left arm WAY bigger than his right? I've seen these guys live a few times and never thought he had 1 big arm, his neck tho! :D
I can honestly say Alex, I love all the albums because there are good songs on each ones it's really hard to say which ones are my favorite. They're all great.
Today you might see George and think, oh he's a big dude sure he'll have a big neck. Then you see slimmer George from 13 years ago and it's the same neck.
Man, Corpsegrinder's voice is shot just speaking in the interview & this man clearly knows what he's doing as far as DM vocals go, considering he's been doing this for over 30 years now. It just fucks your vocal chords doing those vocals on tour day in and day out. Makes me happy with my choice to just play guitar😂 I don't envy what vocalists have to deal with to do what they do. Drummers too! Being a drummer, particularly a metal drummer, would be exhaustingggggg. Playing a single song in a set would be a workout.
@@mrpeace3860 No he doesn't, his voice is totally roached out and cracking here and I literally *just saw* a live clip of CC a couple weeks ago where he was talking totally normally! Amazing how that works, huh? So clearly you have no idea what the fuck you're talking about, buddy.
I totally agree with their viewpoint on never changing the core of their sound, yet "perfecting the machinery" more and more with every concurrent album. Much like Meshuggah, Cannibal Corpse has basically become a fine-tuned sledgehammer.
I feel like people just need to understand that musicians are storytellers. Some storytellers like to write about roses and love and sparkly things, others like to write about horror, death, mutilation, etc. Doesn't mean they believe in that, it's just something that interests them. And some people don't like horror movies, that's ok too. Doesn't mean you're bad, doesn't mean the music's bad, just means it's not a good fit.
Any time a death metal fan says they don't like Cannibal Corpse or Dethklok it screams "hipster" to me. My generation was introduced to this music by their scene in Ace Ventura and the next generation by Metalocalypse. Sure there's stuff that's heavier, more technical, etc., but these guys are still awesome.
Literally the most consistent fokking band on earth, hands down. I used to be really scared by their music way before I saw any band photos, not even knowing what they looked like. So a lot was left to the imagination. I was legit intimidated by Corpsegrinder in the hammer Smashed face live footage. If I were to fast forward straight to now to find a video the vocalist of CC shopping at Toysareus I would've literally fuchin fainted.
Corpsegrinder's neck is always somewhat amusing. It's like a tree, it gets a new thickness layer each year. Gotta love cannibal corpse ^^
Corey Taylor and Henry Rollins got similar necks as well. Looks kinda funny since you don't see it that often, not in this extreme level atleast :P
oh my god his neck is horrific
That's so true man.. lmao.. like a tree.. lol.. dude that's the fuckin most hilarious thing I've heard about George yet.. that's awesome.. lol..
out of the hundreds of neck-related comments in these videos you found a way to not make me groan, good job
I love how In pretty much every interview it’s about his neck 😂💀

I met Cannibal Corpse in 2010. Alex was out and about around the tour bus and around the fans after the show. Such a cool and down to earth guy
Met them several times, ran (and still run) their official forums, and these guys are honestly the nicest guys in metal.
he attac

But most importantly..
he got dat nec
impressive
his neck is thicc
Woof
Damn I was hoping it would just say "he necc"

I just noticed he doesn't have his tattoo
FOR THE HOARD!

He looks pretty fit here too.
LOOK AT THAT FUCKING NECK!!! THAT'S METAL AS FUCK!!!!
And it just keeps getting thicker
haha, I wonder if it's from the vocals or the head banging.
It's like twice that now hahaha
Right? He's like 75% neck at this point.

Alex is such a humble person
Alex: gives extended clear explanations when answering
George: you know you know
george still is a kid in a candy store in this, still in the process of progressing to sing in his favourite band
right when someone can't put together a coherent sentence he shouldn't be interviewed at all maybe a few yes or no questions would suffice
This is why Alex is in so many CC interviews lol
Great video, as a bass player Alex is a huge idol, I can't wait to see him and the rest of cannibal corpse in march
so humble, love these guys. been a cc fan since early 90s so great to see these guys still killing it!

Love it that Corpsegrinder is wearing a Black Witchery shirt
1:15 well now we know what hand Corpsegrinder uses on those lonely nights on tour
one of the greatest in all of metal, but I remember it was difficult getting into their music at first, now their are one of my favorites.

Sounds like a bombass dream :D

Thanks and Cannibal are such an amazing band that never disappoint me.
why is his left arm so much larger than the other?
That was what i was thinking 😂😂
What an amazing interview! These guys are just amazing!
Seeing those Black Flag, Suicidal Tendencies and Circle Jerks logos in the background is so cool.
Looking so much forward to see them in February!
1:15 looks like George skipped right arm day
TIL George is a lefty.
He swapped it for neck day
It’s cause the camera has a wide-angle lens which warps/distorts images towards the edges of the frame. His head warps too when it gets in the far right side of the frame.

Its just the angles man.
It's like looking at the speedometer from the passenger side. Looks like you're going slower from that angle.
...woa, the lower shoulder and upper arm look deteriorated and it's not the angle...what's up with that...?!?
yeah I know, its just in this clip at that angle... he looked like a professional Porn Hub viewer that uses lefty only!
HOLY SHIT ITS MASSIVE
I can honestly say Alex, I love all the albums because there are good songs on each ones it's really hard to say which ones are my favorite. They're all great.
