Onstage, Devin once described how the name came about. He was living in Newcastle in the northeast of England (Wildhearts period I presume) and went into a fish and chips shop. The old lady serving him said something like "you're a strapping young lad" and Devin figured that would be a cool name for the band.
This shit was amazing as a teenager, and this shit is still amazing as a middle aged man! Keep rockin 🎸 🤘 👹🇨🇦
15years old at the front of the pit screaming your head off! ...God iwanna go back..
Gene; BIG guy, big drum sound, still manages to head bang! Fuck yeah! And play with boots! What a drummer... Love SYL, love Devin.
I love this song it's so crazy off the wall and yet so controlled it's so much fun with the groove in there, and gene's drumming just makes the circle pits happen, holy crap man
Strapping is one of the best metal bands of all time! This album and this song prove it! There will never be a sound this colossal and beautiful again. One of my top 5 metal albums of all time easily!
+J MetalSkinz 100% true words right there
+J MetalSkinz Alien is fukn bonkers. so is City. SYL \m/
J MetalSkinz you nailed it with that comment bro... there will never be another syl NEVER!!!!!
Darren Madden Fuck yeah dude!\m/ Still haven't changed that stance in 2017! There's so much great music out there but not many that hit me in the feels like SYL does.
I miss the live shows so fuckin fun!
Thank the gods for this man. This quarantine would be unbearable without him.
he is the man...he's starting to become a true idol for me. i first noticed this guy was special when i heard Brian Beller (his mateband-bass player in Dethklok) and Mike Patton (here in a youtube video, introducing metal videos in an australian show) both praising him as one of the best extreme drummers they had met with...it seems they were right.
i dont know how they arent considered one of the best metal bands to ever exist
This song has restored my faith in humanity
2:00 is surely one of the most badass music video moments of all time.
Zen!!! This song rules so much! Devin's vocal is prodigious.
2019 anyone??
JamesHetfieldIsGod nope 2020
JamesHetfieldIsGod 2020
2021 from Russia!Good Luck have fun!;-)))
@@seriskifotavrus5387 Hell yeah brother!
several years later and i've got an SYL and devin townsend tattoo lol
The song that makes cranky babies happy! I will never forget when a movie
(I forgot the name of it) had a scene where a baby was pacified by this song hehe.
Shoot 'em up.
I crapped my pants when I saw that
Rob lol me too
Hahaha oh yea i forgot about that movie haha
Best song ever.
Once your ears become desensitized to the blast, it becomes meditative.
Best fucking bands of the 90s Strapping young lad, Pantera, Mr bungle, Faith no more, Primus.
Did yu know Gene, as a child, never could afford a drumset, he practised air drumming and used boxes and shit. its good to know things.
Because Knowledge Is POWER! =D
But on another note, this song makes my trousers happy =)
i just cant get this song out of my head.... AHHHHHHHH ZEEEEEENNN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
EVERYTHING IN MY LIFE IS TURNING AROUND
One of my favs from them ! Pretty insane drummin at some parts, i like it. And Townsends voice sounds friggin great. Zeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeen!
This band deserves way better video quality. Century can stop being butthurt at Dev
This is from 2006, before good image quality was invented :P
@@CinderBlockCuisine Nope. Pink Floyd - Pulse from 1994 have much better image quality than this.
@@jogbo1 It was a joke
@@CinderBlockCuisine UA-cam has added the ability to upload higher quality versions or remasters without losing views.
Stunning stuff. PLEASE let this band not be dead....
Simply Zen!
Oh did you think that I was kidding????
kick ass movie and even better scene!;DD
Jesus. Some vicious grooves in here. This tune is kick ass.
The maelstrom of madness and perfection!
This is the all-time, greatest song done by SYL ever!! ZEEEEEEEEEEEEN! We're the only ones! We're gods! Not Demons!! Hell Yeah!!
When A Job Needs Doing and the Throne Is Empty... It's Time To Call In Hoglan!
i love the whole alien album. simply compelling
Brings back old memories, i used to listen to this band when i was 15 years old, now i'm almost 20 and i still love this song
They GODS, and DEMONS!
aaaaah, so relaxing
the drums on this are awesome
Awesome. Unstoppable. Hail Strapping Young Lad.
This is just friggin awesome, I don't know how something of this caliber could've avoided me...
Never a truer word spoken!
Devin on Gladiator ~ "... am I not merciful?"
Awesome.
Yesssss
I just want to say that Devin Townsend is, in my opinion, the most metal man on the planet.
Zeeeeeeen! That's why I love the word Zen. This very song.
Damn. How many times am I gonna favorite this before I remembered I already favorited it.
YES!!! DEFIANTELY!!
The Addicted teaser is friking awesome!! cant wait!
fantastic drumwork
Every time I hear the chorus I feel like something is trying to break free inside of me
..on the way I´m feeling...on the way I´m feeling...
YEEAAAHH!!!!
Good tune, good tune.
Gene wears fancy shoes when he drums
They have the SYL logo on them, custom made I suppose? pretty cool though!
dude, who doesn't love a head-banging keyboardist =D
Damn this band is badass, and and that drummer is crazy, and I'd like to see Devin with his white Ibanez though, that thing was fucking sexy.
One of the best hard band ever 🤘😫💥💥💥💥💥💥💥🖤💯
drummer seriously makes this band tbh, in my opinion
Is this the ultimate Heavy Metal supergroup???
EPIC OUTRO IS EPIC!
ZEN!!!
you know when he says "why are you lloking at me... why do you keep looking at me? am i not merciful?" and he shows his eyes? thats to show hes soul-less evil and demented, which works well with the song, but who cares eh? the music is amazing!
YEEEEESSSSSSSS
Best song in the world? Probably.
ZEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEN!
It certainly doesn't take away from the awesomeness of this video that it was in Shoot 'Em Up.
devin is such a dork. i love it.
Genialll gran producción grand sonido... Devin Townsend
Man! So did I!! Me and my bro were the only people that reacted!! Great Movie too!!
Where everything has begun.
The singer is hot. All hail STRAPPING YOUNG LAD!!!
Yes!!! we're the only ones
We're gods and demons
Zen
Zen
Zen...on the way i'm feeling
Zen...on the way we're feeling
Zen...on the way i'm feeling
Zen...on the way we're feeling
Connect now and emerge.
We will wait for your return our mighty Dev.
Woah!
Kickass shades. Gotta love the Dev. Also pretty damn decent drumming from Hoglan, like usual.
if only i could have even a tenth of what skill gene hoglan has on drums
gene slays. thats it right there. the man OWNS a kit.
atomic fuckin clock
I meditate to this song
If the Apocalypse had a soundtrack... this would be the main theme.
ZEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEN!
And here we are
That was always my association!
A bright light that engulfs the earth and destroys it in slow motion.
ZEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEN!
The shades are fucking metal.
Love the Dev.
i think the best video they could have done would be like astronauts like being strapped into a shuttle about to launch off for the intro, then right when it gets hella heavy; thats when it lifts off and the guy is freakin out. i thought of it when i was high and got really good goosebumps from thinkin about it
blub dup
ee14q2, i thought i was the only 1 who sees that rolfmao! Its a Master Predator that makes one of the greatest music that can exist in the Universe!
man. haha that's so awesome how he wears big ass boots when he plays.
excelent band
25 people that disliked this song/video need to be exiled from this world.
Agreed!
this song is fucking aswome strappingyounglad rules devin the best vocals and guitarist no1 can beat him strapping young lad for ever
hehe this song calms a a baby down in the film 'shoot em' up' right before a big gunfight with ace of spades playing over the top of it it has one of the best soundtracks ever !!
WATCH IT
Zeeeeeeeeeeeennnn!!!! syl ftw
I love this video. I wonder if the director still has the original footage. It would be great to have a video of the full song, and not just the radio edit.
im in... make it 20...
also got to love this superdrummer,GENE HOGLAN
cool vid ZEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEENNNNNNN!
Jaw dropping band!!! always will be!!!
c'mon Dev go one more round with s.y.l
you're fans are waiting!
These were my thoughts when i first saw him playing with these boots :D
"How the hell can he play like that, wearing THESE!"
Gene simply has my respect as a drummer :)
i discovered SYL yesterday and they already got me back into intense metal!!
Horns up \m/
Awesome Song!
One of the best, I´ve ever heard!
Devin for President! ;o)
And he does it with boots... bloody boots....
I don't think strapping is dead. Devin's bound to get pissed off at something or other and then they'll be back. At least I hope...But I am glad they're all doing other stuff too because Zimmer's Hole fuckin rocks and Devin's solo stuff is always amazing.
The most important figure in the Canadian metal scene. Fuckin rippin
Gene Hoglan is just that epic.
song shows how much of a monster Hoglan is on the drums
that refrain!
This is in dire need of remastering
/watch?v=KRXV-3cpOfc
480p but its a significant improvement
haha, great story!
I'm trying to find the pic of Tomas Haake sitting on Gene's lap.
na here look.
In May of 2007, at a press conference for his new solo album Ziltoid the Omniscient, Devin Townsend announced that he had decided to put an end to Strapping Young Lad and The Devin Townsend Band, and to never tour again in the future. He will continue to record and release solo music and produce albums for other bands.
devin is a superhero
still my beating heart...!!!
epic
