THE WORST BLACK METAL VIDEO EVER MADE?

Friday, August 14th, 2009 at 12:00pm by Axl Rosenberg

A reader calling him or herself “turkeyhead92″ sent us the below. I’m not sure if it’s the worst metal video ever made, but it is probably the worst black metal video I’ve ever viewed. From the TurboGrafx 16-worthy special effects to the sub-public access cinematography, everything about this is just bad. Bad, bad, bad, bad.

But… hilariously so.

    Turbo Grafix 16 > this video

  2. gnarlk says:

    this looks like something that would be on that tim and eric thing that people think is so goddamn funny…

  3. brosupre says:

    almost as bad as Dimmu borgir’s any video they’ve ever made. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F9cqKafnUrk

    It sounds like the last dying gasp of Tim Burton’s sperm.

  5. Shit video, badass song. I foresee I may be the only one here who likes it.

  6. Noobie Mcnoob says:

    I’ve seen worse vids. This song would be really awesome if the vocals and lyrics were a bit better.

    Phew! for a second I thought that skeleton was coming right for me!

  8. Hahaha, the first appearance of the walking skeleton = LOLz

    I remember their god-awful take on Paradise Lost’s “Say Just Words” a decade ago.

    In fact, that CD was mostly “MISS” with the exception of Orphaned Land’s middle-Eastern reworking of “Mercy” and Legenda’s “seven-minute-song-in-two-and-a-half-minutes” blackened version of “Embers Fire”.

    The name Gloomy Grim makes me think it’s a joke. No way someone could seriously name their band Gloomy Grim. And then make this video.

  11. lkgf09 says:

    is there such a thing as a good black metal video?

  12. Brandon says:

    I thought Immortal already won this award

  13. it started off pretty cool…then the vocalist showed up.

  14. This sucks anyone want to get taco bell?

  15. TurdFerguson says:

    What band really sits around and says to their vocalist “You know what would make this video cool is that we shoot you making evil faces at the camera for 4 of the 5 minutes and show us headbang for 30 seconds near the end of it!”?

  16. cougar party says:

    Frankly, not much worse than most black metal videos. These bands try to be so “evil” with the corpse paint and scary imagery. It almost always comes off like they video taped themselves LARP-ing. I think they are pretty much on par with most other unknown black metal bands.

  17. kazz says:

    It’s bad, but i’ve seen worse black metal vids. Mostly consisting of the bands running through the woods in the daytime, then suddenly playing their instruments and headbanging…. in the woods during the daytime.

  18. metalguy says:

    the keyboard sounds like something from A Nightmare Before Christmas

  19. Colin says:

    That;s hilarious.

    And there are people out there who take this stuff seriously?

  20. \nn/ says:

    Of course it’s not the worst ever !! Check this out… now *this* is something to worry about.

    It’s a shitty video, but black metal has worse. Most are just funny and awful (some intentionally, like Call of the Wintermoon), but this isn’t even funny.

  22. Bill says:

    do NOT even compare the turbografx 16 to this anal discharge. if you had said some shit about the turbo duo, i was flying to the mansion and splitting some fucking skulls. i would reanimate Heinrich Himmler and bring him with me. blood would be spilled.

  23. Bill says:

    the singer sounds like the dude possessed by the space demon thing from howard the duck. that’s metal as fucking fuck.

  24. Dr Tizzle says:

    Looks like the Arsis video that Brodsky made a while ago

  25. kjetil says:

    Terrible movie, but I kinda liked the song

  26. Hammer_Smashed_Hurtt says:

    Ahhhh…..just when i think my day is devoid of humor, leave it to Black Metal to cheer me up……

    “..umm Mr Gaahl, what would you say the main driving force behind your music?”

    -eerie silence…bad lighting….cue dark mood music-

    “SATAN”

    …….My ass, gotta love it.
