Tobakilacion I have to kind of disagree with you.A lot of poeple haven't even heard of them.Its not like their Metallica where even if your not into their music you have still heard of them. Avatar is still partially an underground band,where if your not "in the scene" you've probably never even heard of them.
He's so extra and I love him. He gives everything to his performance and still kicks ass on the vocals. No mic cupping so all that growling is legit. God I love him.
YES!!! so fucking beautiful to see a modern vocalist not cupping the goddamn mic. Makes my audio engineer side just giddy like a fucking school girl xD
Kuba Godlewski well yeah. Obviously. Schlact and Thoughts of no tomorrow were amazing in my opinion, but their self titled album is when they got out of the "death" stage and more into groove. Then in Black Waltz, Johannes's voice really improved, and it remained the same for their next 2 albums, Hail the Apocalypse and Feathers and Flesh. Their new album, Avatar Country, changed completely. And each song is even different. But I don't think it's improving, but changing who he is and how he performs
Without a doubt. I actually only recently discovered them so it's all new to me. It seems, especially in the first three albums, he had a weird screech to his voice. Over the years, his growl had gotten deeper and alot more appealing. IMO, from Black Waltz on, he finally found his pocket.
The guitar riff in the chorus is just one of those riffs where you’re like “this is something else”. Straight into the breakdown too. What a great song
Accidentally discovered this band a few days ago. THANK GOD! I'm fucking obsessed with these guys now. No one will ever knock Misfits out of first place or Ghost from second place in my minds hierarchy of best bands ever, but they've definitely solidified their place eternally in third! Hail the apocalypse!!
same ! i was just looking sround for some songs on youtubr, decided to out some Architects on and then i saw a song named "Bloody Angel" and i decided to look it up
saw them at rock usa. honestly did better than most of the bands above them. definitely did better than slayer tbh.... cant wait till they get big enough for a headliner at big festivals like that!
If seen slayer 3 times and at rock USA when they got rained out I was still mad but I was happy I went with my girlfried and friend I'm only 29 years old
One of the best experiences I had was not knowing who these guys were when they played a show I went to. They straight up knocked me on my ass. This band is an absolute blast.
I miss their stuff like this, super badass. I remember seeing them in a small venue with no more than 50-60 people when the hail the apocalypse album was just coming out. The new stuff isn’t bad but this is what made me fall in love with them.
Holy shit!!!!! He sounds just as amazing as his recorded vocals!!!.......at 1st I thought he was lip syncing!!!!! Avatar puts on an incredible show!!!!! I wish they would tour the West Coast some day!!!!! 🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽
I’m so happy these guys put on an amazing live show. I’m an OG KoRn fan from the 90’s and these guys are at that level. I hope they realize I just compared them to royalty.😎🤘🏻
I don't get into a whole lot of modern music. But god damn I love these guys. Awesome live vocals, where a lot of metal singers fail. And some of the rhythm reminds me of Faith No More back in the 80s and 90s. This band is tight as fuck.
We're proud to have them! Check out Arch Enemy, Amon Amarth, Opeth and Ghost (even though they're not really metal)! We've got some great "under-radar" bands at the moment. (Sure they all are well known, but still, I feel like they don't get the attention they all deserve! :))
Just happened on them a couple days ago on Pandora. AMAZING!!! I love them! They're in Vegas on my 52 birthday. Probably not gonna make it. I wish they were coming closer to Sacramento. \m/
just discovered these guys. amazing band. really amazing frontman. can't stop watching the beginning of this over and over, when he starts singing and going crazy!!
They are so fucking unique i love it! Love their look as a band and the front man is what a front man should be like full of energy and fucking entertaining most importantly great vocals fucking legit no bullshit. This band deserves way more attention. I'm still unsure abt the name AVATAR tho xD Like why lol

Probably the most underrated band ever

Tobakilacion they have grown immensely ten times over!
They are well known in their native Sweden, lol.
Tobakilacion Not a lot of people in the US has heard of them
Sevendust is the most underrated band ever
He's so extra and I love him. He gives everything to his performance and still kicks ass on the vocals. No mic cupping so all that growling is legit. God I love him.
Fucken aye
YES!!! so fucking beautiful to see a modern vocalist not cupping the goddamn mic. Makes my audio engineer side just giddy like a fucking school girl xD
His discipline not to headbanging in the intro is something to admire
He's always got the most amazing stage presence. Even from watching this on my phone.
Biohazard Gaming !!! Exactly
We were there LIVE for our 21year olds koolest birthday EVER!!!
The part where e smiled after the intro was next-level lol
Especially spitting out some Swedish snus while doing it. :D
@@hollowmade idk. He probably spit out some gum he was secretly chewing before the show
Swedish people come out of the womb shredding sick riffs. It's just part of who they are.
What an excellent frontman! His voice is just as solid as Randy Bylthe
When I first heard these guys that's who I thought it was lol
Its like randy Blythe mixed with Mickeal akerfeltd
Now if Randy could occasionally quit cupping the mic xD
Except way better!
Johannes from 0:56 on: "must...not...headbang..."
Michael impossible for me
Him and Till from Rammstein do this and its so fucking badass just standing still when a brutal riff is going like that!
I love this. I'm gonna start dancing like Johannes to every song regardless of genre.
Well, I suggest you this one th-cam.com/video/dqDgLJP4BFM/w-d-xo.html
Starving Mosquito pure gold.
Emma Wattam ikr
Haha, everytime I hear a Avatar song, I breakout in those amazing moves haha
You got 69 likes to your comment...I won't change the number for my most favorite band is 69Eyes but this guy is INDEED fantastic. 🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤💥💣
Willy Wonka seems to be going through a dark faze
i'm dying help 😂😂😂
Willy wonka in a metal concert
Hail the Chocolate Factory.....
There's a Wonka making chocolate. It's the best in town and it's being shipped across the ocean...
I have never seen such an accurate comment before hahaha
😂😂😂
Dude.
They sound exactly the same in studio.
So damn good!!!!
Anyone else feeling like his voice gets better over the years?
Kuba Godlewski well yeah. Obviously. Schlact and Thoughts of no tomorrow were amazing in my opinion, but their self titled album is when they got out of the "death" stage and more into groove.

@@johnstrika9170 Well now after 3 years my comment seems to have jinxed it and he sounds awful live lmao.
If the Joker had a band, this is a great band though
Sophia Yezzi yes I like his style
My new hydration device is officially a gas can now
4:04 Water in a gas can.. niiiiiiice
Hyper Lurki I never noticed that! May be one of the most metal things ever
thats not water
I do the same thing on stage! I've seen Avatar twice and haven't noticed him doing it too until now!
I'm not really sure about that, could just as well be gasoline =D
Koffe Erixon it's tea with honey
Their drummers a beast!
The guitar riff in the chorus is just one of those riffs where you’re like “this is something else”. Straight into the breakdown too. What a great song
1:31 that smile awh
No mic cupping that I've seen, Mr. Fricker would be proud.
Seems to be fresh strings on the bass as well... Rule #2 is not in effect here.
Cybernetic Amoeba ...he can actually sing
New method: make vocalists hold a cane so that they only have one hand to hold the mic :D

see them live when you can. best showmen out there atm
robert mckinley They were JUST in Seattle on Halloween and I missed them.... Devastated!!!!
They are a great band. And I too love GHOST. Good taste in music! ✌🏻❤️🤘🏻
same ! i was just looking sround for some songs on youtubr, decided to out some Architects on and then i saw a song named "Bloody Angel" and i decided to look it up
have u heard rats yet? and if so please say what u think
Awwww, now I'm dreaming of them in my city
Alina Kampfar same
i feel the same i even have their t-shirt
Alina Kampfar oh I dream of them in Washington please one day Avatar Spokane or Seattle I don't care
They live 25 km / 15 miles from me.
I'm gong to see then in November! can't wait!
I saw them when they toured with Motionless in White and In This Moment, and while I love MIW, Avatar totally stole the show that day.
Avatar makes me so happy! And they're so good in concert!
When bands are young...yeah great live.
Well just give them like 20-30 years they're might sound raspy around there.
Yes
Sounds just as good live as they do studio, fuck yeah!
This is one of the best bands i have seen live! Very much worth your time and money!
Love his energy on stage.
I actually love it when he smiles at the begging it makes me smile so much with utter excitement their so brilliant
saw them at rock usa. honestly did better than most of the bands above them. definitely did better than slayer tbh.... cant wait till they get big enough for a headliner at big festivals like that!
Absolutely no idea why they're not already headlining. These guys are badass!
If seen slayer 3 times and at rock USA when they got rained out I was still mad but I was happy I went with my girlfried and friend I'm only 29 years old
One of the best experiences I had was not knowing who these guys were when they played a show I went to. They straight up knocked me on my ass. This band is an absolute blast.
"There's a storm heading our way" Avatar predicted the snowstorm in Texas 👀
I saw them yesterday at Domination festival. New fan here🤘
I saw these guys open for HellYeah last week (admittedly... had no idea they were even opening) and holy shit dudes, was it an intense show!
These guys fucking kill it live. Normally I find live music a bit disappointing, but I just saw these guys and they might be better live than album!
se les nota el amor por su musica, hermoso
My blod belongs to THE SWARM!!! HAIL AVATAR!!
2:27 this man was born to be a frontman
Why has it taken me so long to discover this band? Amazing....
This band has come a looooong way since they came to America and they're still heading to the top! All hail the clown!!
I miss their stuff like this, super badass. I remember seeing them in a small venue with no more than 50-60 people when the hail the apocalypse album was just coming out. The new stuff isn’t bad but this is what made me fall in love with them.
that looks like such a great concert.
This......is amazing. He sounds great live
Most entertaining band live ever!!
Holy shit!!!!! He sounds just as amazing as his recorded vocals!!!.......at 1st I thought he was lip syncing!!!!! Avatar puts on an incredible show!!!!! I wish they would tour the West Coast some day!!!!! 🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽
I’m so happy these guys put on an amazing live show. I’m an OG KoRn fan from the 90’s and these guys are at that level.
I hope they realize I just compared them to royalty.😎🤘🏻
they are really going for it
His voice live is incredible
oh my god i fucking love it. he screams perfectly on queue
gonna see them for the first time in january. soooo looking forward to it
bridgette bateman i saw them live once it was awesome i could not recommended it enough.
i am so looking forward to it! i watch this video atleast twice a day
3:30 he drop the stick
MaxiYlosGemelosLáser yeah but he covered it fast and nicely tho
oh the drummer dropped the stick. i kept looking at Johannes
@@cybert0r LOL me too, still kept the beat nicely.
I was shocked that johnny dropped a stick, but that man recovered like a king while still keeping the beat in tact.
I don't get into a whole lot of modern music. But god damn I love these guys. Awesome live vocals, where a lot of metal singers fail. And some of the rhythm reminds me of Faith No More back in the 80s and 90s. This band is tight as fuck.
Yeah today's times get real weird but there's a few diamonds in the rough
The Faith No More reference is spot on. Mike Patton is creative and weird and incredible like Johannes is. Such a fitting reference.
So refreshing to see someone NOT cup the mic.
Only swedish metal vocalist's can do this holy shit I love this so much
We're proud to have them! Check out Arch Enemy, Amon Amarth, Opeth and Ghost (even though they're not really metal)! We've got some great "under-radar" bands at the moment. (Sure they all are well known, but still, I feel like they don't get the attention they all deserve! :))

This is probably the best live performance of this song
Still the best Avatar live video ever
just discovered these guys. amazing band. really amazing frontman. can't stop watching the beginning of this over and over, when he starts singing and going crazy!!
Sería emocionante ir a un concierto de ellos :3
My 12 yo loves Johannes. I love Henrick 😂😂😂 . But yes! They’re absolutely fantastic. Thank the metal Gods!
3:26 haha love how the bro just throws the stick backstage and grabs a new one
Ikr. His recovery was awesome though
They are so fucking unique i love it! Love their look as a band and the front man is what a front man should be like full of energy and fucking entertaining most importantly great vocals fucking legit no bullshit. This band deserves way more attention. I'm still unsure abt the name AVATAR tho xD Like why lol
Avatar stays for a God in the human form, like to prophetize or explain the true nature of everything
The Crow got together with a bunch of vampires and started a metal band?
Sick!
AWESOME
vid cannot wait to see them in my town
This is definitely my favorite Circus Metal band thus far. That main guitar riff crushes.
What an opener for a song! Freakin brutal!
Still watching this in 2022👀
Amazing to see live! Hope they come to Bangor Maine soon!
Its when he starts waving that stick about, he looks fucking marvellous 😂
This stage presence is fking insane
That´s one of the best frontman ever !!! awesome band, great song !!!
They are phenomenal live. Saw them at Brick By Brick in San Diego, awesome. Can't wait to see them again.

Me gusta mucho esta canción... y la banda perfecta...

Awesome video man thanks for posting this !

To have these guys as an opening act Is an insult! Awesome band!
I love the hell out of this.
I just got into avatar back in February and holy shit what have I been missing
Shit, this is some BADASS METAL TO BE PROUD OF!!!!
1:35
He spits his hash out XD
Oh my god, I’d be on my knees…. I LOVE THEM 😍
