BLOODIEST MUSIC VIDEO EVER? YOU DECIDE.
Tuesday, May 19th, 2009 at 2:01pm by Vince Neilstein
Saying your metal band’s got “The Bloodiest Music Video Ever” is kind of like saying your metal band’s new album is the most br00tal, pummeling, and best work to date; it’s certainly possible but we hear that shit all the time, and mostly it ends up being a load of crap. So if your label sends out a press release declaring you’ve got the absolute bloodiest video of all time and you even go so far as to register bloodiestmusicvideoever.com to debut the video, you better be able to back that shit up!
Fortunately for Victory Records’ Wretched (recent recipients of a MetalSucks 2.5-out-of-5 horns rating for their album The Exodus of Autonomy) their new video for the track “A Preservation of Immortality” is indeed really fuckin’ bloody — as well as twisted, morbid, dark and all that jazz. Whether it’s actually the bloodiest video ever made we can’t say, but we’d certainly think this video gives it a run for its money (plus: boobs!).
So, is Wretched’s new video the bloodiest ever? Head on over to bloodiestmusicvideoever.com to watch it, then tell us what you think in the comments. And be sure to include links to your own nominees for bloodiest music video ever.

I’m going to submit a shot of a pool of blood and nothing else. Technically, you can’t get much bloodier than just a pool of blood. The video would be 100% bloody!
You’d think if they were going for the bloodiest video ever, they’d do a better job on the fake blood. It looks like Mrs. Butterworth’s with red food coloring.
This video, not the bloodiest, but full of awesome. http://www.roxwel.com/player/deadtofallchumfiesta.html

A cameo by Wilson the volleyball?
This was one of the worst videos that I have ever had the displeasure of viewing. Why didn’t they go to a Party City or something and buy some fake blood there? It would have looked marginally better than this Kool-Aid stained shitfest.
Got bored of it after about 2 or 3 minutes, it is pretty gory but boring as fuck.

This is by far, the most over the top, gore-filmed exploitation.

I seriously want everyone to watch. It’ll blow your load.
AHAHAH This video owns. I was not expecting that ending. Also, was he cumming from his mouth?
who said romance was dead? a touching (pardon the pun) tale….
It looks a lot like one of my home movies!
I let those jerk offs have it on twitter for wasting my time. Fuck Victory’s twitter account in the mouth.
WOW! That was just more then I expected. Usually titles of articles don’t live up to the hype, but wow.
I never got far enough to see any of the gore the song was just way too horrible.
he was just too ecstatic about the great day he had. some people just need more friends.
I wanted to watch the whole video but the track was a piece of shit. I watched Cannibal Holocaust whilst listening to XXX Maniak instead.
nice, cannibal holocaust is a classic. so bad and yet so good. its like eating dog food.
Whoop-de-do, Basil. Lots of fake blood and some mediocre music. Whether it truly is the ‘bloodiest music video ever’ is of no concern if it’s still crap. Watching even the crappiest Fulci flick with goregrind as backing music would be far better.
This is the second time in as many weeks I’ve been duped into believing hyperbole over a video, the first being that crappy cover of that Tatu number.
Student film- level production values and melodrama FTW. I bet things got super sticky with all that corn syrup flowing.
Also, all those adds popping up made me feel like I was watching the superest of underground/fucked up/D.I.Y. metal videos, for realsies.
Raybeez is stoked from beyond the grave.

I thought that video was meh. The song really didn’t fit all the gore, too melodic. They broke out into a minor shred solo as the girl was like staring at the guy. Also, the lighting was horrible for this kind of blood. It just made it look faker, like Kool-Aid as someone said and it just looked way overdone. Meh, better luck next time Victory Records. At least you have BTBAM to keep you going.
I didn’t bother watching the video, but I can’t see it having a higher blood per second rate than this 9 second clip by the Great Kat: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DkY04eRthaw
i didn’t make it all the way through the wretched video because the song/band is awful… from what i saw of it, the video was pretty fucking awful too, though not as bad as the berzerker video y’all posted up last week. on the other hand, the lair of the minotaur video you referenced is great.
I actually like this band. They remind me of The Black Dahlia Murder circa Unhallowed. The video wasn’t great, though. It was a corny way to promote a band.
HOW/WHY THE FUCK DID THIS ALBUM EARN ONLY 2.5 OUT OF 5?
Honestly I think it’s an incredible album that deserves much much more…
