Imagine getting everyone on the planet to play this full blast at the same time, the sound reverberating through to the earth's core, sending epic riffage out through the universe
10,000 years or more In jet black meditation Sonic Tempress hears no more And hands me my salvation Walking thru the piles of life Ignore all accusation Now I stand here hands are sore But thats my motivation The vision never died The earthling walked in flight 10,000 Years or more In jet black meditation Now I stand here hands are sore But thats my reputation
Matt pike is a fucking god. Met the legend at the 1st year Sounds of the Underground in Atl happened. I was barely 18. HOFs set changed my life amd how i viewed metal. Never looked back.
I'm so mad I missed this group. But so glad. It's all new to me. Every album will be bought. There's nothing like finding a big fat fucking diamond in the rough. This band fucking makes me want to rip mattress tags off. Lol. This is some good fucking music here. I'm mad at myself for not looking up shit. Was on a big 15 year meshuggah kick
The drums at the beginning remind me of Demon's Gate by Candlemass then the bass comes in all Sabbathy and wham the last layer of fuzzy guitars comes on and boom High on Fire sludgy goodness.
I've seen them 4 times live myself in the Detroit area! Now 60 I've seen it all in R&R and Metal since listening to the first back in 1955-56! I feel i can safely say I am an expert with a pro ear and this is how i would put it: Phil Spector years ago had what they called the "Wall of Sound"! HOF: TSUNAMI OF SOUND"! Spector's Wall on 'ROIDS!!!
"What happens when you die?" Person 1: I think we all go to heaven. Person 2: I think we are reborn anew into another body. Me: I don't know but I hope it involves 10,000 years or more in silent, jet-black meditation. I could use a break.
Cool song. Paints a picture. I see the Romans and Greeks walking up to the battle lines. Both groups can see that their lives will likely be gone momentarily. But neither are backing down. Charge! And it's on.
Imagine invading iraq and blasting this song.... or laying out at night under the stars in a huge empty desert..... I don't have to imagine it.... I just remember it

you, sir, just may be a genius.
Ok
I want to live in that world
You're stoned af
Big bang part two
*THE POWER OF THE RIFF COMPELS YOU!*
Look up "The seed" by "Down", you'll know what I'm talking about.
This song is a perfect example why High on fire is one of the most lethal bands on this Planet.
Sounds like a mix between Melvins and Motorhead! Badass, great band
That signature Melvin drum beat.
cannot be played loud enough.
No it cannot. Ive tried.
Me too.
Dan Caetta turn up to 11
Huh? WHAT? I can't hear you! Hold on, let me turn this down...
Nerp!@!
I could listen to that intro for years
Alphawolf299 for Ten Thousand Years?
@@bosquezguitars5392 and more
Are you still listening doe
Matt Pike riffs are always perfect for "the slow 'bang"
Sounds like dumptrucks falling out of the sky. Beautiful isn't it
That may be the best description
Arrival of the Vogon fleet.
10,000 years or more
In jet black meditation
Sonic Tempress hears no more
And hands me my salvation
Walking thru the piles of life
Ignore all accusation
Now I stand here hands are sore
But thats my motivation
The vision never died
The earthling walked in flight
10,000 Years or more
In jet black meditation
Now I stand here hands are sore
But thats my reputation
He's a lyrical genius nuff said
Its impossible not to head bang through this entire song
Holy nun nuts that was good!!!! It's bands like this that carry the almighty gauntlet of metal!!!
derfgod haha nun nuts. I'm gunna use that.
seeing this live was the highlight of my high on fire concert
should be of your life, and that is not an insult.
That's saying something too
They didn’t play it when I saw them and I almost cried
Saw this live 14 hours hence...what a beast of a tune.
i love this song live,first the bass then the riff... awesome :)
Matt pike is a fucking god.
Met the legend at the 1st year Sounds of the Underground in Atl happened. I was barely 18. HOFs set changed my life amd how i viewed metal. Never looked back.
sneerious grinch Fuck yeah brother, Matt Pike IS god. Once in a lifetime human being and guitar player.
When High On Fire played this song at Roadburn the Earth was shaking. Excellent stuff man.
this will play during the revolution
this song reminds me of electric wizard - return trip both have the most heavy riffs i have ever heard a guitar make
Dragonaut111 EW with this kind of drums would be quite something
Dragonaut111 nope. They're high on fire! ;)
Thanks for showing me another brutal riff!
I'm so mad I missed this group. But so glad. It's all new to me. Every album will be bought. There's nothing like finding a big fat fucking diamond in the rough. This band fucking makes me want to rip mattress tags off. Lol. This is some good fucking music here. I'm mad at myself for not looking up shit. Was on a big 15 year meshuggah kick
Excellent song, Love this band.
Mold the riff, and then be like, "drummer, there you are." - Matt Pike, 2002
The opening riff is enough to seal this song.
The drums at the beginning remind me of Demon's Gate by Candlemass then the bass comes in all Sabbathy and wham the last layer of fuzzy guitars comes on and boom High on Fire sludgy goodness.
alexander simmons the drums around the 5 minute mark during the breakdown solo omfg so goddam evil wicked badass
this song has always existed
Feel the groove
When the levy breaks
Matt Pike is America's Lemmy
The 17 people who disliked this should lose their thumbs.
WELL THEY ALREADY DONT HAVE NUTTS!! STICK THEIR HEAD ON A PIKE!! GET IT? PIKE...LOL
WHY DONT YOU
Fuck off nazi punks
Off with their thumbs!
Yes both of them
When your neighbor starts up his lawn mower and for a split second you thought there was another metal head on the block.
When I first heard this song my reaction was "this is by far the coolest fucking song I've ever heard" especially 4:20 till the end
damn, every time I come back to this track it blows me away so good
drooling...head going cooky.
10,000th listen still feels like the 1st.
Sludgiest song in existence! 🤘🤘
such an awesome RIFF
love this riff. sabbat style
one of the heaviest ever. EVER.
ohhh the heaviness....It's like being underneath a dying sun....
I just showed this to my 7 year old brother, and he says it's one of his new favourite songs. >:D
Man, I'm pretty drunk and this is the first thing I thought of..
This was such a good idea.
I've seen them 4 times live myself in the Detroit area! Now 60 I've seen it all in R&R and Metal since listening to the first back in 1955-56! I feel i can safely say I am an expert with a pro ear and this is how i would put it: Phil Spector years ago had what they called the "Wall of Sound"! HOF: TSUNAMI OF SOUND"! Spector's Wall on 'ROIDS!!!
Excellent playlist.
Song is dope. That intro beat is pulled almost straight from some old Helmet..
Still the best High On Fire album
WHO THE HELL DOWN VOTED I WANT NAMES
Nicholas DiMucci ..exactly , we must find them!
Bon Jovi, Kim kardadshitian
Justin Bieber
High on Fire is THE buzz!
Feels so good when the sound it's heavy!!!
this song made me create a songlist called bass intros. nib is also there. gonna fill it up when i remember stuff thats on the same level. tips?
That list has to also include Fireface from the same album. George Rice is an animal.
sons of otis, sleep, neurosis, melvins, om, yob, acid king, electric wizard, bongzilla, weedeater are few
orange goblin! it's doom rock, baby!
Peace Sells - Megadeth
schism - tool ;)
That kick drum is kickass🤟🤟🤟
i just got hip to these guys and im diggin em.. now i start my research... dig there look, style and approach.. fukin original as hell!!!
Une ligne de basse terrible et un solo de fin envoûtant !
Buzzsaw guitar heaven !!!!!
The beginning sounds just like a history of bad men by the melvins
"What happens when you die?"
Person 1: I think we all go to heaven.
Person 2: I think we are reborn anew into another body.
Me: I don't know but I hope it involves 10,000 years or more in silent, jet-black meditation. I could use a break.
Heaviest drum intro since When The Levee Breaks. Now that's saying something when you're comparing a cat to John Fucking Bonham.
Hell yeah! It bangs my brain thru my eyeholes! Like it!
Love the heavy bass riff intro!
LEGENDARY!!!!!!!!!
Everyone is here is awesome.
these riffs are like a warrior swinging an axe chopping some heads off
The 6 thumbs down is because they are scared. And they should be. This is a badass song!
such a great melvins vibe like History of a bad man
Oh my. For sure..i love this sludge
Only HOF did it before that overrated band with the cranky leader.
Riffs at 5:00 and accompanying bass runs are fucking incredible, can't believe I haven't given this band a chance until now
this is the best song in the world.
God i fucking LOVE that riff starting at 1:20 so damn catchy and great for headbanging!!!! haha
You don`t happen to be a member of the old TON board?
Melvins
dude i'm frying
teet
those sacred shrooms add to the inhale of fire experience too.. give it a whirl!
man,i cant get this tune to play?, shame i love it
Good one here!
heaviness=love for my ears
WOW!
Those drums sounds like fucking atomic blast.
Cool song. Paints a picture. I see the Romans and Greeks walking up to the battle lines. Both groups can see that their lives will likely be gone momentarily. But neither are backing down. Charge! And it's on.
The best album by High on Fire..imho
The riffs from this song remind me of just about every song off of Cathedral's album 'Endtyme"... Which nevertheless was a bomb ass album. \,,/
Iommi>Gaz Jennings>Pike.
8 dislikes in what almost 5 years? Not bad
this makes the worst day you’ve endured, almost copasetic
great shit man
Yes he is. He sounds like a fuckin warlord lol
Gonna see High on Fire with Torche and Kylesa tomorrow night at the Launchpad in ABQ. It's gonna be heavier than a Gravitron ride.
See kids this is real music, played with guitars not compu...Ahww I don't give a fuck ...great band
HAHA, literally laughed out loud.
Something about just makes me wanna go real slow-like, and its fucking beasty as hell!!!! Im gonna have to start listening to all their songs.
I thought it was like so:
>Blues.
>Rock.
>Rock 'n Roll.
>Hardrock.
>Metal.
kick ass bass...
Great band!!!
We should have sent sleep & high on fire and not vangelis' music to outer space... we lied once again..
This is metal.
Few people will have heard this but the 3 song demo that first featured this tune had a far superior version....
The. Effing. Riff.
yes! the slow bang is heavier
TheFrostySax89 that's what she said.
holy fuck..... this is heavy! the pain slowly fades away
Imagine invading iraq and blasting this song.... or laying out at night under the stars in a huge empty desert.....
I don't have to imagine it.... I just remember it
Greatest stripper pole dancing song....ever
The riff that starts at 5:00 is the sound of mountains moving.
@PhillipThunderGrunge
it's like having your entire continent crushed, colliding with the moon
lol it's one of my top 10 heaviest songs fo sho
YEAHHHHH!
The ending goes on too long, it seems, then you realize how fucking epic it is , then you think "oh THIS IS STONER METAL !"
Hey man, all HoF is fucking awesome.
You can be any color you like on the net. You like what you like :).
