    As a first Avatar song it should've been Bloody Angel, Hail the Apocalypse, Let it Burn or Torn Apart. Those are the songs that got me in to this band, esp Bloody Angel.

    This song was great! I'm also a fan of the "goofiness" of some previous releases. They have a great sense of humor. You need to check out Hail the Apocalypse, Smells Like A Freakshow, The Eagle Has Landed, Let It Burn, and A Statue of the King.

  • @Tilldeatharmwrestling
    @Tilldeatharmwrestling 4 ปีที่แล้ว +8

    Avatar Country could be considered “goofy” I guess. It’s a concept album that does have more humor in it. The released a film based off the album as well. But. Some of their older stuff. Black Waltz for instance is pretty heavy throughout.

  • @HollowBones82
    @HollowBones82 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Great to see you getting to know Avatar! They're, I guess, the most unknown known band in this business. Been around under the name "Avatar" since 2003 but started as "Lost Soul" in 2001. GREAT band and if you ever get the opportunity to see them live - DO IT! Oh, and the DTP song you're thinking of can't be anything else than "Juular" with that description! :D

    A friend of mine took to me to see his favorite band Babymetal. Avatar, who I'd never heard of opened for them, and I walked away from that show that night majorly impressed with Avatar. They're a great band and one of my favorites now. The previous music is not "goofy" but they certainly went for a very dark-humor theatrical style for their videos for the last couple of albums, and they're always experimenting with their sound and style. I highly recommend their song "Hail The Apocalypse".

    I wouldn’t say their music is goofy, I think he just probably means that they are a very theatrical band, I used to call it circus metal lol. It is definitely worth checking out their older stuff!

      @MrBrown-jj9bf 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Theatrical and goofy are very close. Avatar isn’t a really good band and you have to try hard to like them. Nothing about them stands out and makes you raise an eyebrow, they’re just ok.

    • @richardsinclair7661
      @richardsinclair7661 4 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      Way to speak for everyone, buddy. You don't need to "try hard to like" Avatar. If their approach to music appeals to you, there are plenty of things you could point out about them. I think their songwriting is incredibly unique. Especially from their self-titled record onwards. They have pretty interesting riffs (especially on the songs "Death of Sound" and "What I Don't Know, and especially on "Hail the Apocalypse". That song is groovy as fuuuck) and can write some pretty catchy choruses. My favorite thing about Avatar is Johannes Eckerstrom's vocal range. He has a pretty distinct scream, and he can sing very well also.
      I would agree that their image isn't anything special, but they have good stage presence and their music is distinct in itself. If you want to hear "nothing stands out", listen to their first three albums. Generic (but enjoyable) melodeath. I'd prefer this sound over that one, and I because of that, I think your thing about "nothing standing out" is absolute bullshit.

  • @douglascobb
    @douglascobb 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Avatar has quickly become one of my favorite bands, and I dig most of their songs -- but, they are quite diverse and inventive in their music, so not all of their songs might appeal to all musical tastes. They have always had very hard-driving, intense songs, much like this one, but some also include a twisted sense of humor, which I personally really like...Some of these songs might border on the "goofy" side that you mention you were told about, though I still enjoy the videos, like the one for "The King Welcomes You to Avatar Country," and the video for "Hail the Apocalypse." The live versions are very intense and excellent, but I also really dig the videos, which have some humorous (some might say "goofy" aspects to them. Both the live versions and the videos are worth checking out, IMHO....I hope you enjoy listening to more Avatar in the future!

    Avatar Country album is goofy but in the best way, and some people think anyone in makeup is goofy. But the makeup makes sense (to me) because their music operates like a Jester in a court - dark humor and biting commentary on life.
    I would recommend a song/video of theirs called The King’s Harvest - it looks cool and I love the groove of that song. And I don’t think it’s a VEVO video
