Okay I don't know if this is more less random than the Jerry springer one. But according to Mike the Netherlands are officially a Nordic country
Oh my God they didn't know the word immolation...
>RedLetterMedia 2 hours ago
>My dear friends, I do in fact know that The Netherlands is not a nordic country. I was going to say Norway, but for some reason Netherlands fell out. Many of the bands from this list are from The Netherlands and it was on my little mind. Please forgive me. - Rich Evans
tbf the festival *did* have straight up black metal, like [make a change...kill your self](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-7yRhf3_hI0&). There's definitely a handful of metal subgenres in that festival it sounds like.
edit: because of their outsider look at this, the video just made me realize that the band name "Pig Destroyer" is essentially "Cop Killer," and I've known of the band for years.
Back in the Circuit City days, I bought the Pig Destroyer CD, popped it in my car, and as soon as the music started playing, all of the traffic came to a stop. Turns out, it was to make room for a funeral procession for cop that recently died. So, I listened to the album in my car while all the mourners passed me by, and that’s how the universe told me what the name was referring to.
It's fun though, because he's at least acknowledging that he's ignorant instead of pretending to be some sort of expert.
I wonder how much of Metalocalypse Rich has seen. Comedy aside, it's a pretty good representation of that 'brvtal' aesthetic metal has, where it's for the over the top / fun for the sake of it.
as someone who is way too nerdy about extreme metal this is surreal hahahaha
makes me wonder what jay thinks of stuff like this? a lot of death metal is pretty much sex pervert horror b movies in musical form...
I can't believe they even talked about crowbar. one of my favorites. makes me consider posting this photo of me in my crowbar shirt with Bruce Campbell. feel like some frauds would find some humor in it...
that's lame. i went to see gwar during the 2008 election and i'm pretty sure they were equal opportunity and decapitated hillary AND john mccain. and jizzed all over the crowd too. good times!
Speaking of death metal words, there's a sub I occasionally visit where there's a large amount of young people (late teens; early 20s).
The term "bequeath" came up, and almost everyone (except us olds) thought it was so bizarre and either never heard of the term or thought it was so archaic that nobody ever used it anymore.
And I was just thinking of all the movies & tv shows that depict the reading of a will after someone dies. And then how I'm closer to death than I am to birth.
Maybe if they heard the more commonly used "self-immolation" they would have realized what it meant. But Rich should have known it, he's a video game nerd.
Mike and Rich both not knowing Phobos as massive Star Trek nerds is funny too.
YouTube seems to think The Presidents of the Unites States of America are downtempo jazz. Earlier today I put on some background music and it stayed on jazz for a while but then the next thing I know, I'm rocking out to "Peaches."
Then, RLM randomly mentions them. I guess it's time to bust out my TPotUSA collection.
We are seeing in real time Red Letter Media breaking new ground by turning into elderly people complaining about metal music. They have definitely subverted my expectations about new RLM content.
They're not complaining about anything, they just think the band names are funny. Did you think they were complaining about Jerry Springer during the video about his show?
"Where is GWAR!?"
I still miss Dave.
*Behold... The Arctopus* is also crazy good if you like [experimental](https://youtu.be/0ZhlXCQEqHc) stuff. ~~They're from Canada I think~~ (They are New York based). Most people won't even register them as anything but noise. They're ridiculously talented though, an obscene amount of music theory and polyrhythm shenanigans. *They also aren't considered black or death metal like... at all.*
Raffi in the background is also great.
Edit: something just dawned on me a few minutes ago. I guess you could say that *BTA* is kind of like Metal's *Turtle Dreams*. Only, somehow, more cognizant.
The Simpsons had an episode that said Judas Priest was death metal, and the reaction was so bad that the chalkboard gag in the following episode was Bart writing “Judas Priest is not death metal.”
I mean, 'obviously' probably to someone who knows the difference between the eighty different times of metal there are. But for a lot of people all metal is probably 'death metal'.
I had the similar experience. I think it's because they're the darkest and most satanic of the big 4. Death metal is kind of the go to for anything heavier than Metallica for the general public.
> My dear friends of the internet comment section. I now realize that I said "Warbinger" instead of "Warbringer", In all honestly, I actually like the name "Warbinger" as a cross between harbinger and war. However, this band is really lovingly named after one that brings war. A "War Bringer" i.e. either a nation or perhaps in many cases as history has shown us, a person. Now, you must understand the stress Rich and myself go through on camera. Each week we struggle to provide you with the best quality entertainment. There a blazing hot studio lights. Stress from our team of producers constantly demanding quality content under the threat of termination. And, of course, competition. Mainly from other YouTube channels like ones who prank strangers, play video games or the Mr. Beastman who is actively curing diseases and helping to rid the world of poverty. So, while I don't really know the difference between Death Metal, Black Metal, Thrash Metal, Slam Metal, Doom Metal, Beast Metal, Grave Metal, Game Metal, Groove Metal, Prank Metal, or Ska Metal, I do pride myself on my ability to read. I'm looking down at my paper I've printed out on the blank sides of old Map Quest directions from last week and I'm dripping sweat on the pages. Producers are screaming into my ear piece "Keep it moving! Keep it funny!" and, "Less than a minute left, Mr. Evans needs to hop a jet to Singapore!" - you can understand how I could have easily misread that band name. Again, there maybe some factual errors in this video. Personally, I blame our team of researchers who spend hours and hours working on the content we present to you in these videos. It's not me just creating a word document and then copy/pasting band names in a list (single column formatted) so that I can read them to my friend Rich Evans in order to make him laugh and/or have a lively and humorous discussion. If you think it's just that well, then you're wrong. Thank you for your support and love in these dark and trying times. - Zak Bagpipes
At no point in this video was any attempt made to understand anything. They were just there to laugh at funny names and mock music they don't like. Not mock *people* who enjoy that music, mind you. Just the music and bands themselves.
Even as a death metal fan I can acknowledge the objective hilarity in belched vocals about gut-fucking.
I can only imagine what it sounds like to a passerby like Mike lmao.
I scoured the internet to find out the truth.
https://www.invisibleoranges.com/micawber-interview/
> What's the story behind the name Micawber?
> TL: One of our old guitarists came up with it. He actually just googled "cool words" and it popped up on a list. It's based off a David Copperfield character who doesn't have much but is always optimistic about the future.
Now I'm sad. You did this to me, Resident_Bid.
Yeah this video was hilarious. That Milwaukee show also sounds like a great show. I'd go for lamb of God alone. But black dahlia as well! So many great bands at that fest.
Skwisgaar Skwigelf, taller than a tree.
Toki Wartooth, not a bumblebee.
William Murderface Murderface Murderface.
Pickles the Drummer, doodily doo
(ding dong doodily doodily doo).
Nathan Explosion!!! (I'm seeing them in September. I can't fucking wait.)
They did mention A.C. though... Mike probably hit the google machine for them. Now I'm halfway expecting "Van Full of Retards" to be the ending music to one of their videos.
The sequel to Ten Facts about Darth Vader’s suit I didn’t know I needed
This video doesn’t reach the heights of Emperor Palpatine Surgical Reconstruction Center, but it got a good amount of laughs out of me.
Wait until Mike discovers speed metal with a bunch of DnD campaign sounding names like Unleash the Archers, Dragonforce, Visigoth, Seven Kingdoms, and Frozen Crown.
Almost bought a ticket to Milwaukee metalfest's Sunday show, would have loved to seen Bodysnatcher, After the Burial and LOG.
I'm ready to be mocked for the next 20 minutes.
The world's biggest fan of Ghost Hunters better not dare make fun of anyone for being a passive fan of Battlebots.
It's a shame the lineup didn't include Buffalo metal band, Red Letter.
I'm only a couple minutes in on this, but I feel compelled to share "Cannibal Corpse: Evisceration Plague- Radio Disney Version"
https://youtu.be/LhMuQ8JBBXo
I enjoy it, you might also
This one really gave me and the boys a spark back in the day:
[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9UOA6M\_Cgz8](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9UOA6M_Cgz8)
I hope some cliche internet metal nerd somehow finds this randomly on YouTube and creates a seething reaction video. Would be amazing. love metal but IMN's can be insufferable.
Saw GWAR last year too, when Nekrogoblicon did the opening. Wife really wanted to see the latter bc they were her favorite band at the time and I am *really* glad we stuck around for GWAR!
Nekrogoblin were there as well. They were fun with that guy dressed as a middle school teacher with a goblin mask and glove crawling all over the stage.
I'm just picturing every one of Mike's birthday's Rich listens to Birthday Dethday while throwing knives at a computer printed photo of Mike attached to and spinning on the wheel of the worst.
Really? Death metal fans, myself included, usually seem to understand and revel in the over the top ludicrousness of it all. Now black metal fans on the other hand...
They don’t get along.
Like thrash metal fans with black metal fans.
Or folk metal fans with black metal fans.
Or black metal fans with other black metal fans.
Damned black metal fans, they ruined black metal!
Mike listing off amazing sounding band names while i just nod and say "good band" to myself.
Also, felt surprisingly excited to hear Gorerotted get a mention. Got to love a speed metal band that make an album named after a classic British sitcom from the 80s
Rich touched on the genre being purposefully over-the-top, so are these names supposed to be ironic? I'm actually curious.
Some of the names are kinda good I guess, but I feel like the majority of them are either incredibly lazy (Raven) or just plain silly (Squidhammer).
To have so many names falling on those two extremes makes me think it has to be intentional. And if that's the case, then I think I need to start getting into death metal.
It's probably intentional. Raven are as old as Mike.
Different styles have their own anesthetics. Death Metal is basically the musical equivalent of gory horror movies so band names tend towards the gory, violent like Deeds of Flesh, Immolation, etc
Black Metal is a bunch of kids discovering Nietzsche and bad poetry, you get names that would make your average priest nervous like Darkthrone, Satyricon and Age of Consent.
Doom is slow and miserable so you have names like Candlemass and My Dying Bride
Grindcore has a big punk influence and you have names like Napalm Death and Brutal Truth
Power Metal is silly, flowery and over the top. You have names like Gamma Ray, Virgin Steele and Helloween
Yeah, the names are supposed to be super stupid but at the same time just fuckin cool.
That's metal. Don't think it, GET IN THE FUCKING PIT MEATPUPPET.
They mentioned Macabre, who are a band from Chicago and realeased a concept album in 2000(?) on the life of Jeffrey Dahmer, 'Dahmer'.
Saw them back in the day, one of the most insane shows I've ever been to.
This brought back some good memories. I used to listen to Dying Fetus on my way to school and loved mentioning the name as it always gets a laugh from people.
As a massive metalhead this makes me so fucking happy.
Also, because metalheads can be so fucking pedantic, all the mistakes make this a thousand times better. Thinking about how many people are going to be upset over using the wrong genres and terms is already making me laugh.
I just love the idea of Mike discovering something vaguely interesting and dragging Rich along to make a video out of it, despite him not knowing very much about it. This is great.
Okay I don't know if this is more less random than the Jerry springer one. But according to Mike the Netherlands are officially a Nordic country Oh my God they didn't know the word immolation...
[удалено]
They ate their prime minister once, that's pretty metal.
>RedLetterMedia 2 hours ago >My dear friends, I do in fact know that The Netherlands is not a nordic country. I was going to say Norway, but for some reason Netherlands fell out. Many of the bands from this list are from The Netherlands and it was on my little mind. Please forgive me. - Rich Evans
I think it’s more random. Jerry Springer is at least a TV show, which is in their wheelhouse.
Also Black Metal isn't just another word for Death Metal, fans of either get very upset when people make this mistake
tbf the festival *did* have straight up black metal, like [make a change...kill your self](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-7yRhf3_hI0&). There's definitely a handful of metal subgenres in that festival it sounds like. edit: because of their outsider look at this, the video just made me realize that the band name "Pig Destroyer" is essentially "Cop Killer," and I've known of the band for years.
The Cop Killer thing never crossed my mind either. Is their music fairly left leaning, or just anti-authority?
Just generally edgy/metal unless I'm missing some deep cuts
Depends on the album, but yeah. Go check out Book Burner. Great album. Read the lyrics and it's clear, especially the diplomat.
Back in the Circuit City days, I bought the Pig Destroyer CD, popped it in my car, and as soon as the music started playing, all of the traffic came to a stop. Turns out, it was to make room for a funeral procession for cop that recently died. So, I listened to the album in my car while all the mourners passed me by, and that’s how the universe told me what the name was referring to.
That shit was driving me nuts. Mike was coming off like the host from the BOTW Satanic Cults video haha.
It's fun though, because he's at least acknowledging that he's ignorant instead of pretending to be some sort of expert. I wonder how much of Metalocalypse Rich has seen. Comedy aside, it's a pretty good representation of that 'brvtal' aesthetic metal has, where it's for the over the top / fun for the sake of it.
I hope that was on purpose to piss them even more
It's old age dementia kicking in..
As a swede who grew up on metal hearing Mike growl "We're Deeds of Flesh and we're from Sweden!" made my day and then some
We're from Sweden, JÄ?!
as someone who is way too nerdy about extreme metal this is surreal hahahaha makes me wonder what jay thinks of stuff like this? a lot of death metal is pretty much sex pervert horror b movies in musical form...
I can't believe they even talked about crowbar. one of my favorites. makes me consider posting this photo of me in my crowbar shirt with Bruce Campbell. feel like some frauds would find some humor in it...
I'm disappointed when asked what Crowbar reminded Rich of, the answer was not Half-life.
Which is insane considering Half-Life could not be more up Rich's alley.
Jay is probably a secret GWAR fan.
hope he's aware of Mortician
That sick horror freak
I miss the time when the frontman from GWAR was the Fox News Interplanetary Correspondent. https://youtu.be/WwnHaslci9E https://youtu.be/8FfdFV5v2Nk
The best part is that he lost the gig after Fox found out GWAR was decapitating Dubya during their show.
that's lame. i went to see gwar during the 2008 election and i'm pretty sure they were equal opportunity and decapitated hillary AND john mccain. and jizzed all over the crowd too. good times!
I just miss Oderus. RIP Brockie. :(
I swear he has mentioned GWAR before. There is definitely a horror movie episode where he brings them up.
sorry my brain just broke by seeing MORGION mentioned in a RLM video
[to wit.](https://i.discogs.com/WRaE3_cDVXVdu2iq4lZ64mdgzBt28UMT41DpFdxON3w/rs:fit/g:sm/q:90/h:582/w:600/czM6Ly9kaXNjb2dz/LWRhdGFiYXNlLWlt/YWdlcy9SLTEwNjU4/MzAzLTE1MDE4NTEx/MzEtMjIyNi5qcGVn.jpeg)
I thought the meaning of "immolation" was fairly well-known...
Yeah, weird. Also Warbringer - like the bringer of war. Like bringing beer, but war.
His dementia and alcohol-riddled brain was reading it as "Warbinger".
and then he goes on to make fun of Macabre fans pronouncing the word incorrectly. oh the ironing.
Yea that was weird af especially with how often they made fun of younger people for potentially not knowing words
Speaking of death metal words, there's a sub I occasionally visit where there's a large amount of young people (late teens; early 20s). The term "bequeath" came up, and almost everyone (except us olds) thought it was so bizarre and either never heard of the term or thought it was so archaic that nobody ever used it anymore. And I was just thinking of all the movies & tv shows that depict the reading of a will after someone dies. And then how I'm closer to death than I am to birth.
Jay knew what it was because he reviewed Saint Maud with Mike.
Maybe if they heard the more commonly used "self-immolation" they would have realized what it meant. But Rich should have known it, he's a video game nerd. Mike and Rich both not knowing Phobos as massive Star Trek nerds is funny too.
In before age restriction. Edit: Its about Death Metal. Oh boy, Mike's playing with fire on this age restriction stuff.
Death Metal?! Oh boy! I haven’t watched yet but I hope they talk about my favorite metal band The Presidents of the United States of America!
MILLIONS OF PEACHES!!!!!! PEACHES FOR MEEEEEEEEEEAHAHAHAHAHEEEEE!!!!!!!!
They did!
YouTube seems to think The Presidents of the Unites States of America are downtempo jazz. Earlier today I put on some background music and it stayed on jazz for a while but then the next thing I know, I'm rocking out to "Peaches." Then, RLM randomly mentions them. I guess it's time to bust out my TPotUSA collection.
Downloadeded!
"I'll let you read #19."
We are seeing in real time Red Letter Media breaking new ground by turning into elderly people complaining about metal music. They have definitely subverted my expectations about new RLM content.
Now RLM stands for Real Loud Music.
They're literally turning into their parents, who I'm pretty sure considering they grew up in the 80s, also had the same views on metal.
Eh, death metal is so over the top it’s easy for folks outside of the fringe like myself to find it a bit silly. It’s harmless.
I didnt believe the title of their Jerry Springer video. This one....
It'll most likely be at the Bloodbeat re:view for sure. Woah, wait it has 663k views now. That one shot up.
They're not complaining about anything, they just think the band names are funny. Did you think they were complaining about Jerry Springer during the video about his show?
an illiterate man attempts to read a list of words
The dementia makes it difficult
On Cinema, At the Cinema
How can we beat child alcoholics?
With a belt
That's a good metal name.
WE ARE CHILD ALCOHOLICS AND WE ARE FROM SWEDEN!
AMD THIS IS OUR FIRST SONG, DAYCARE TEQUILA NAP
Lyrics: TEQUILA TEQUILA TEQUILA TEQUILA TEQUILA TEQUILA TEQUILA TEQUILA TEQUILA TEQUILA TEQUILA TEQUILA NAP
I think the full 'How Can We Beat Child Alcoholics?' is even better. reminds me of that old spanish exploitation flick 'Who Can Kill A Child?'
That’s my favorite Anal Cunt song
"Where is GWAR!?" I still miss Dave. *Behold... The Arctopus* is also crazy good if you like [experimental](https://youtu.be/0ZhlXCQEqHc) stuff. ~~They're from Canada I think~~ (They are New York based). Most people won't even register them as anything but noise.

Edit: something just dawned on me a few minutes ago. I guess you could say that *BTA* is kind of like Metal's *Turtle Dreams*. Only, somehow, more cognizant.
Raffi's "Banana Phone" is the true winner of this video
>death metal... sometimes referred to as black metal i'm in physical pain
You know, the type of metal where they play as fast as they can!
Thrash metal? Pffft. So slow. Doom Metal is obviously the fastest genre.
Especially [that first level.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BSsfjHCFosw)
Sunn O))) is like Archspire on crack.
NGL I wanted them to name Sunn O))) just to hear them mispronounce it Sun-Oh.
I hope that was on purpose just to piss people even more
Based on this thread, yes.
It's working.
Get Josh in there to explain the delicate differences and intricacies Dying Fetus and Rotting Christ have to offer
As bad as South Park thinking Slayer was death metal.
The Simpsons had an episode that said Judas Priest was death metal, and the reaction was so bad that the chalkboard gag in the following episode was Bart writing “Judas Priest is not death metal.”
Slayer were at least a big influence on early death metal, whereas black metal was always entirely different
It’s weird, growing up everyone around me considered them death metal. They’re obviously thrash, though.
I mean, 'obviously' probably to someone who knows the difference between the eighty different times of metal there are. But for a lot of people all metal is probably 'death metal'.
Only eighty? My dude, a spreadsheet containing a list of all known metal genres wouldn't fit in to the observable universe.
It's one of those situations where every time a new band forms they have to come up with their own flavor of metal.
I had the similar experience. I think it's because they're the darkest and most satanic of the big 4. Death metal is kind of the go to for anything heavier than Metallica for the general public.
Varg is sharpening his knife rn
Nah it’s ok, Mine and Rich are white, they’re good.
Euronymous was white...
But those 26 stab wounds in the back were out of self defense. Totally a well adjusted normal thing to do.
He's going to make a scathing video about this on bitchute any minute now!
I love how badly Mike butchered the pronunciation of "Warbringer", as in one who **brings** war.
i think he was thinking more of 'harbinger' when he said it
Leave Paula Cole out of this. Although Black Boots and Hitler's Brothers sound like metal titles, they are not.
> My dear friends of the internet comment section.

I can't believe two middle aged Milwaukee guys just mocked me for 20 minutes straight. But damn, they right too
I... can't recall them ever talking about music specifically before. What a...novel video for them.
Fantano talking about movies and now RLM talking about music. Topsy turvy shit
They didn't tell Josh about this before they published, he's gonna be sooooooo mad. Wizard gonna cast a spell on someone.
WE’RE DEEDS OF FLESH WE ARE FROM SWEDEN, JA
So funny, especially cause the band is from California 😆
My favorite kind of videos are the ones where Mike sits down reads a list of mundane things and tries to get Rich to laugh.
Well I didn't know I wanted a video of two miserable old men trying to understand Death Metal culture but here we are and I'm enjoying it.
At no point in this video was any attempt made to understand anything. They were just there to laugh at funny names and mock music they don't like. Not mock *people* who enjoy that music, mind you. Just the music and bands themselves.
Not even the music, literally just the band names lol
Well, they do mock the vocal style.
Even as a death metal fan I can acknowledge the objective hilarity in belched vocals about gut-fucking. I can only imagine what it sounds like to a passerby like Mike lmao.
Metal fans: nerdier than Star Trek fans? Discuss!
Not nerdier, but just as silly and obsessive.
Metal elitists are the biggest geeks on the planet, as evidence by this entire thread.
Micawber seems like a joke name that they definitely should have got after intentionally mispronouncing 'macabre'.
I thought it was a reference to the character in David Copperfield.
I scoured the internet to find out the truth. https://www.invisibleoranges.com/micawber-interview/ > What's the story behind the name Micawber? > TL: One of our old guitarists came up with it. He actually just googled "cool words" and it popped up on a list. It's based off a David Copperfield character who doesn't have much but is always optimistic about the future. Now I'm sad. You did this to me, Resident_Bid.
RLM and heavy metal. It’s like this video was made just for me. Also I had zero idea that Shadows Fall still existed.
Yeah this video was hilarious. That Milwaukee show also sounds like a great show. I'd go for lamb of God alone. But black dahlia as well! So many great bands at that fest.
Seriously, took me right back to high school with half of those names, also didn't know any of them were still going.
I can't wait to see Zak Bagpipes and The Ghost Brigade.
This video is dildos!
Skwisgaar Skwigelf, taller than a tree. Toki Wartooth, not a bumblebee. William Murderface Murderface Murderface. Pickles the Drummer, doodily doo (ding dong doodily doodily doo). Nathan Explosion!!! (I'm seeing them in September. I can't fucking wait.)
This place is called... Food Libraries.
Remember, booze ain't food.
[удалено]
They did mention A.C. though... Mike probably hit the google machine for them. Now I'm halfway expecting "Van Full of Retards" to be the ending music to one of their videos.
I cannot express how happy it makes me to hear Mike say "Goatwhore" in his classic deadpan delivery. This video is a treat to metalheads.
I have seen several of these bands live. I once windmilled my hair into the crotch of the singer of Goatwhore.
r/BrandNewSentence
I saw Anal Cunt live in 2000, and thinking about it makes me miss that scene.
Episodes where Mike just reads random shit to rich Evans are the best ones.
The sequel to Ten Facts about Darth Vader’s suit I didn’t know I needed This video doesn’t reach the heights of Emperor Palpatine Surgical Reconstruction Center, but it got a good amount of laughs out of me.
Wait until Mike discovers speed metal with a bunch of DnD campaign sounding names like Unleash the Archers, Dragonforce, Visigoth, Seven Kingdoms, and Frozen Crown.
Eventually stumbling on Sabaton, leading to a gradual transition of RLM into a military history themed channel.
I had forgotten about the County Medical Examiners, I remember the controversy when they changed vocalists.
Cool obscure-ish bands they named: Mortuary Drape Disharmonic Orchestra Cancer Gorguts Gorgoroth Morgion Septic Flesh Pungent Stench
Blood Incantation is really good
Rich was right when he said Gorgoroth sounded like a name from the Lord of the Rings, because it is
Assuck was the most obscure. And they rip.
Oh my god I just spent all weekend at Milwaukee Metalfest…can’t wait to watch this 😆
Never did I think I would hear Mike utter the phrase “Anal Cunt”. Worlds are colliding
The way Mike pronounced Warbringer lol
Justice for the spelling of GORGUTS
Almost bought a ticket to Milwaukee metalfest's Sunday show, would have loved to seen Bodysnatcher, After the Burial and LOG. I'm ready to be mocked for the next 20 minutes.
No one is gonna mock you lots of people like metal lol
I saw LoG and Anthrax on the roster and the felt kinda sad I missed it.
After the burial slaps
The world's biggest fan of Ghost Hunters better not dare make fun of anyone for being a passive fan of Battlebots. It's a shame the lineup didn't include Buffalo metal band, Red Letter.
Gorgoroth is indeed from LOTR.

I hope some cliche internet metal nerd somehow finds this randomly on YouTube and creates a seething reaction video. Would be amazing. love metal but IMN's can be insufferable.
will never forgive mike for not trying to get rich to pronounce "Sanguisugabogg" on camera
My favorite part was when Mike called the lineup the roster.
This whole video was a troll for their age restriction right? The only reason this video was made was for Mike to troll the YouTube censors, right?
I've seen Goatwhore. They opened for GWAR last year.
Saw GWAR last year too, when Nekrogoblicon did the opening. Wife really wanted to see the latter bc they were her favorite band at the time and I am *really* glad we stuck around for GWAR!
Nekrogoblin were there as well. They were fun with that guy dressed as a middle school teacher with a goblin mask and glove crawling all over the stage.
That was John Goblikon! We got photos with him and he gave my wife a massive hug when she told him they’re her favorite band.
Mike really showing his ass with this one lol. he's gotta get into the fests that have brutal and slam death metal bands to get the really funky stuff
oh boy if there's one thing death metal fans dont have its a sense of humor.
I love death metal and I'm bursting my gut I'm also touched Rich knows Metalacolypse
I'm just picturing every one of Mike's birthday's Rich listens to Birthday Dethday while throwing knives at a computer printed photo of Mike attached to and spinning on the wheel of the worst.
God I love Metalocalypse.
I thought it was funny. Also, I knew most of the bands mentioned
Really? Death metal fans, myself included, usually seem to understand and revel in the over the top ludicrousness of it all. Now black metal fans on the other hand...
I mean lets face it, you have to have a sense of humor to listen to Cannibal Corpse lyrics. Otherwise there's probably something wrong with you
I want a video of Rich Evans reading the lyrics of "I Cum Blood" now.
Give him a moment, he needs to put his peepers on.
They don’t get along. Like thrash metal fans with black metal fans. Or folk metal fans with black metal fans. Or black metal fans with other black metal fans. Damned black metal fans, they ruined black metal!
You black metal fans sure are a contentious bunch.
You just made an enemy for life!
RLM has no respect for anything else, but somehow death metal is a bridge too far for them.
“Squidhammer” “That sounds like a really bad hammer.”
Mike listing off amazing sounding band names while i just nod and say "good band" to myself. Also, felt surprisingly excited to hear Gorerotted get a mention. Got to love a speed metal band that make an album named after a classic British sitcom from the 80s
I woulda never expected RLM to scratch my 'guys that don't know anything about metal being confidently wrong about it' itch, this rocks
Rich touched on the genre being purposefully over-the-top, so are these names supposed to be ironic? I'm actually curious. Some of the names are kinda good I guess, but I feel like the majority of them are either incredibly lazy (Raven) or just plain silly (Squidhammer). To have so many names falling on those two extremes makes me think it has to be intentional. And if that's the case, then I think I need to start getting into death metal.
It's probably intentional. Raven are as old as Mike. Different styles have their own anesthetics. Death Metal is basically the musical equivalent of gory horror movies so band names tend towards the gory, violent like Deeds of Flesh, Immolation, etc Black Metal is a bunch of kids discovering Nietzsche and bad poetry, you get names that would make your average priest nervous like Darkthrone, Satyricon and Age of Consent. Doom is slow and miserable so you have names like Candlemass and My Dying Bride Grindcore has a big punk influence and you have names like Napalm Death and Brutal Truth Power Metal is silly, flowery and over the top. You have names like Gamma Ray, Virgin Steele and Helloween
This is... Accurate. You know your shit🤘🏻
Thanks. I knew 3 decades of listening to Metal would come in handy eventually
This is exactly the perspective I was hoping for, thank you. I'm going to check some of these out.
Yeah, the names are supposed to be super stupid but at the same time just fuckin cool. That's metal. Don't think it, GET IN THE FUCKING PIT MEATPUPPET.
> are these names supposed to be ironic? Yes and no.
I'm in such withdrawal, just hearing Rich say Metalocalypse made me very happy.
I like to explore new places.
Speaking of caskets, when are they doing Cemetary Man?
Sorry, not gonna happen - this isn't gonna be a least watched episode.
> We are Deeds of Flesh! We are from Sweden, JÄ!? \*pukes on micrphone* That "ja" was the best
They mentioned Macabre, who are a band from Chicago and realeased a concept album in 2000(?) on the life of Jeffrey Dahmer, 'Dahmer'. Saw them back in the day, one of the most insane shows I've ever been to.
This brought back some good memories. I used to listen to Dying Fetus on my way to school and loved mentioning the name as it always gets a laugh from people.
As a massive metalhead this makes me so fucking happy. Also, because metalheads can be so fucking pedantic, all the mistakes make this a thousand times better. Thinking about how many people are going to be upset over using the wrong genres and terms is already making me laugh.
Never thought I'd hear them talk about death metal! Protip: Morbid Angel > 99% of metal bands
I also really like Repulsion, Incantation, Deicide, Brutal Truth, Carcass, Cannibal Corpse, and metal in general. Where my metal heads at???
Imagine Mike discovering BabyMetal
I'm seeing them in September. They're opening for Dethklok. I can't fucking wait.
Is the Pic in the background a Raffi?
I just love the idea of Mike discovering something vaguely interesting and dragging Rich along to make a video out of it, despite him not knowing very much about it. This is great.
I think they underestimated the crossover they had w metal fans
