Alcohol knows it's gonna win. This ain't just some groovy jammy song Y'all. This is a terrifying truth for those of us who live this nightmare. I swear that booze is staring right back at me and laughing, because it knows that it's the sickness, but also the cure. It's a horribly vicious cycle. It'll make you sick as a dog, and then offer you the only real hangover cure known to man, which is more booze, which you'll then get another hangover from. It cures anxiety, but also causes it. It cures depression, but also causes it. It's the cruellest mistress. Randy from Lamb of God said it best "This God that I worship, this demon I blame. It's exactly the same." Those who don't understand what I'm saying, I hope you never do. I hope you stay naive and safe. This is a nightmare.
It's why I love doom. We accept all types here. You can dress how you want, act how you want.. we'll still accept ya. Doom/Stoner/Sludge whatever you wanna call it is one of the most fun and least toxic subgenres I've had the pleasure of writing music for and performing. There's no point in taking yourself too seriously when the music doom metal guys write, speaks for itself.
@@sloshed-rat but that's doesn't make the whole stonerheads have the same views, so nope you heard wrong, doom is all about solitude, alienation from today's pop culture, brainwash society. or else you're a softie poser. even gezzer butler from bs bashed against pop-rap star cardi.b and how stagnant today's music is
Hearing this reminds me of life twenty years ago, driving around listening to the Heavier Than Thou compilation album on cassette. I wore that tape out and drove everyone crazy with Saint Vitus. None of my acquaintances understood the greatness of Saint Vitus. Thought they were nothing more than Sabbath imposters. Vitus took what Sabbath started and then plunged headforth into unknown depths of doom and despair. When they broke up in the nineties, I was so depressed. Glad they're back!
I had that cassette. I played it till it wore out. Trying to get all the vinyl again. I listened to it at work after listening to Sublime and Dave Matthews all night. My kitchen crew were bummed when it was my turn for music.
St. Vitus are one of the few bands that have an unmistakeable sound. You just hear one note played with that fuzzy humming guitar tone, and you know it's the masters of doom.
I lost my dad to wet brain one year ago. Hearing this reminds me of him. His struggles. We tried so hard to steer him right, but he truly did become his addiction. RIP dad. I know you're not in a better place right now, but at least you're no longer suffering.
I ran into Wino in Downtown Rehearsals in DTLA on my birthday in 2012. I had been drinking all day. He told me he was getting the Obsessed back together. Later that night, I got into a fight with a bum and a midget on the bus ride home. I spent the next few nights in a jail nowhere near home.
Lyric: I have got to change my ways 'Cause I'm losing my mind I have got to stop drinking 'Cause I'm dying inside I feel twice as old as I am And it's getting worse I'm in the palm of habit's hand I can't escape the curse There is nothing that I can do I have no self control I have let myself become dead I have ruined my soul Every time I wake up sick I say never again But then opportunity knocks And I'm wasted my friend I can't control my addiction I've tried time and time again I'm losing all my friends and lovers Alcohol knows it's gonna win Now I have lost everything And I really don't care Everybody that I have known Has out cast me here Drinking has wasted my life And I'm dying inside I feel twice as old as I am I've lost what left of my mind I can't control my addiction I've tried time and time again I'm losing all my friends and lovers Alcohol knows it's gonna win
These guys are truly incredible live. I had the honor of seeing them in 2012 and have a funny story to go with it too. I was 15 and rather lit at the time. Dave Chandler jumped into the crowd and everyone stood back except me cause I was too out of it to register what happened. To my amazement and horror, Dave held out his guitar as if he wanted me to play it. The problem was, I didn't know how to play and being the shy and awkward kid I was, I simply froze in fear. Instead of being an asshole about it like I feared he would be, however, Dave did something wonderful. He gave me a very kind, grandfatherly smile and simply placed his guitar on my head so other people could play on top of it. I was still very embarrassed, but looking back on it, I do not believe Dave could have handled the situation better and I will always be grateful to him for his kindness, as well as all the members of Saint Vitus for the phenomenal music they create.
So poignant anguished, honest, soul searching and introspective yearnings of an alcohol addict crying out for an escape and a better way of living. The music of Saint Vitus sure expresses this so aptly and an almost cathartic exercise that helps bring about release. What it is that's so great about doom metal which these boys wrote the script for. True groundbreakers.
I was kidding, no problem!! The sound on this recording is almost perfect, it sounds pure St Vitus 100%, anyway if you say that it was a two-track recording, it almost a miracle!! In fact Wino's voice sounds greater than ever!
Not quite. Its a lil deeper. I once let a classical guitar teacher listen to this and he called it. A guitar player hitting all the "right" wrong notes. Lol.......
Awesome live performance and great audio sound. I still remember getting my first Saint Vitus album 'Born too late' and I was blown away. It sounded so good to play with my Kenwood Tape Player in my car.
Wow goosebumps! The nostalgia is real wth dis one guys I rembwber when I was wth my ex tripping ballz 4 dayz and dis song was playing aha good times guyz keep jazzing yu guys rock😎
Awesome performance! Saint Vitus is so kick ass.. I have loved them since I was a teenager back in the eighties and bought all of their albums on vinyl. The "Born Too Late" album was my all time favorite though, from which this classic song was from..Killer..
I just learned that the Saint Vitus show in Athens which was about to happen on July 7th has been cancelled and I feel like I'm dying inside.........I want to see them so much it's a dream ! But what matters the most is that they're all strong and healthy and I wish for a quick recovery......and after that happens, please see to it that you come and play that show because people in Greece are huge fans of your music
HENRY VASQUEZ is a fucking beast of a drummer, very nice guy to,i met him at his record store in Ft worth, bought a few T-shirts from him and we discussed alot of different things about music
"I say never again, but then opportunity knocks and I'm wasted, my friend" just experienced that yesterday. Spent whole week without a drop, but I knew opportunity would knock during the weekend. And it did. It was stronger than me
💕Beautiful friend..My ex husband and I covered this song(unreleased..I have)...and When Emotion Dies..Much Respect From NOLA🍃...☆ steph..Opal Aka Big Mama...Hands DOWN...We love ya!!🍃🍂

I feel you
You said it, brother. Couldn't quantify the life wasted on it simply by looking back into the void it left.
Yes, the Absinthe "killed" me!
yup. like every other addiction out there... its fucked. i wish you the best man
Cool story bro, tell it again drunk now.
love the drummer
Chuck Biscuits brother?
@@kissesbloody what really?
Solid playing: he fucking feels it!
That's the great HENRY VASQUEZ, i have been too his record store in FT WORTH TX many times,,he is one cool mofo
All loving the drummer.
when the guitarist wears a t-shirt and plays the darkest doom, you know you are in the right place...
Lol
It's why I love doom.

I bought 4!
I'm 48 and just discovered this band today I lost 75% hearing first song

I love how the drummer does NOT make it about himself..... rock and ur roll.

I lost my dad to wet brain one year ago. Hearing this reminds me of him. His struggles. We tried so hard to steer him right, but he truly did become his addiction.
RIP dad. I know you're not in a better place right now, but at least you're no longer suffering.
I lost my dad to Oxycontin
May you and your father find peace

Henry absolutely killing it on drums
Tanks ....I was wondering was it him or acousta
@@eoinfitzpatrick7830I have been to Henry's record store in Ft Worth TX a lot of times,it's called BORN TO LATE
Lyric:
I have got to change my ways
'Cause I'm losing my mind
I have got to stop drinking
'Cause I'm dying inside
I feel twice as old as I am
And it's getting worse
I'm in the palm of habit's hand
I can't escape the curse
There is nothing that I can do
I have no self control
I have let myself become dead
I have ruined my soul
Every time I wake up sick
I say never again
But then opportunity knocks
And I'm wasted my friend
I can't control my addiction
I've tried time and time again
I'm losing all my friends and lovers
Alcohol knows it's gonna win
Now I have lost everything
And I really don't care
Everybody that I have known
Has out cast me here
Drinking has wasted my life
And I'm dying inside
I feel twice as old as I am
I've lost what left of my mind
I can't control my addiction
I've tried time and time again
I'm losing all my friends and lovers
Alcohol knows it's gonna win
I'm trying to
Thats me! Trying to quit but it hurts.Sorry kids!
It's damn hard to quit. As long as I don't take that first drink I'll be ok.
Sober since 1999.

one of the best lyrics ever made
His guitar solo truly sounds like a sick and dying person crying for help.
m
Mm
Brutal \m/
This fucking solo is meth incarnate
@@batskink533 FR
Or like a person drowning in alcohol
This song.... just destroys me... and constructs me... over and over again
That solo is from another planet 🤘

Coolest drummer !!!
No. That was Armando Acosta.
he's pretty cool the sabbath t shirt got me good
@@brandonhofmann5479 actually that is Sleep Vol. 2 tshirt
Audio at this show was insanely good
That's like my favourite drumming ever. Feel so cool when I hear those сymbals.
Henry is a sick drummer
these guys came through a time portal from the early 70's...looks like Ginger Baker(Cream) on guitar and Mark Farner(Grand Funk Railroad) on vocals
They sound amazing
I freaking love that drummer!!
That solo is so good its frustrating
+Jarrad Lowe lol I just mean is so fucking good!! That's all!! Its so unique!!!!
Jose Barrera
It really is fuckin awesome!
The guitar tone is like resin to my ears.
Stage diver respecting the band.So cool.
I love everything about this
Dave's lead guitar isnt trying to be super technical, but has a feel and trippiness to it. Love it
and that shit's natural. an intuitive feel beats the hell out of the cleanest tech any day of the week, in my book
ONE BAD ASS PIECE OF MUSIC!!!!!!!!!
Thx for uploading!
...epic...
I know bro complete band vocals bass drums guitars all top notch
I must own this on DVD. Best version of this song I ever heard...
this solo'ing style of chandler is unique and awesome, he's phrasing that whole thing by just hitting random notes
Not quite. Its a lil deeper. I once let a classical guitar teacher listen to this and he called it. A guitar player hitting all the "right" wrong notes. Lol.......
Обожаю эту группу, у меня сносит крышу, чувствуется каждая нота.
I love this band! It blows my mind, every note is felt.
Es la mejor canción que conozco que retrata el padecimiento de muchos adictos.
Saw this band in hollywwod, bad ass music! And they talked to me and my friends for least 15 minutes! One the best shows ever!
They have always been a great band. 45 years. Scott's vocals are enchanting and he's a great guitarist too
Excelente!!!!
"Everybody I have known has outcast me here"
Beware of those who say they love you.
Rest in peace Mark Adams.
It's a fucking bummer man. Their kickass music still lives though
One of the best songs ever!
Anybody else listening to this with a hangover?
every. goddamn. time.
Jorge Leitner yes
hangovers are for novices, drink all the time for 30yrs and you never get them, i have been drunk for 30yrs and i never get one
NO. When I'm drunk.
Only with a boner
OH MY GOD I LOVE THIS SONG!!!! THIS LIVE VERSION IS SICK!!! Hail Saint Vitus!!! saw em back in 2010... blew my mind!
Love this song......drunk or sober.....powerful stuff
Awesome redefined. Everything Wino touches turns to GOLD!
One of the greatest song ever written from one of the greatest band🤘
I'M LOSING... OOOOOHHHHH MY CHILDREN!!!!!
Amazing set...Vitus are an entity which cannot be matched!
Im so stoned right now and I'm floating watching this
Riffs poderosos, y un solo hipnotizante !
Glad att jag var där !!
Sleep - Vol 2 shirt hahaha \m/
Everybody has a Sleep shirt. Even Saint Vitus has a Sleep shirt.
AERAFX Gotta get your 8 hours of Sleep everynight.
What about that fuckin Shakira shirt? xD
That's when I wake up
1:33 "I feel twice as old as I am... and it's getting worse" followed by laughter in the background lol unbelievable
That's solo... wow. I like this so much
Drummer is phenomanal
EPICNESS LEVEL 10
Awesome live performance and great audio sound. I still remember getting my first Saint Vitus album 'Born too late' and I was blown away. It sounded so good to play with my Kenwood Tape Player in my car.

"I say never again, but then opportunity knocks and I'm wasted, my friend" just experienced that yesterday. Spent whole week without a drop, but I knew opportunity would knock during the weekend. And it did. It was stronger than me
Sounds so good live and all these years later
Dave Chandler is fucking my favourite guitarist! Saint Vitus is the fucking masterpiece!!
Who's your favourite guitarist then ?
Kudos to Serge Spiga, he did the live-sound and made capturing and mastering much easier !
Fantastic
This is Dark and Heavy. Love it
agree!!! this is an awesome Saint Vitus live set/recording!!! good production!

Oh how awesome you are from Thailand. Show respect to big mama aka Phil Anselmo's ex wife. Kneel!!!
this song is so true
Fantastic version!!!
What a monster behind that drum kit!
Dave Chandler, is the only cat that can wear a Shakira shirt and not be questioned about his commitment to heaviness!!
best ever live clip I've ever seen, that guitar tone is just awesome
So high ....
They just get on stage and freaking jam this shit RULES
Great rock and the video is awesome in B&W.
Cheers from Chile!
