I feel like not enough people have said it but, the tattoos themselves look absolutely incredible!
They look amazing but it seems like they’re trying to make these people out to be super creepy because of the music
I love how they do tattoo work based on the occult as well .so awesome and inspiring at the same time 🔮🔮✒✒🔮🔮
@@oldman2470 yea because VICE is corny like that.
Sloppy Oldman it’s part of the theme it’s not that deep lol
@@flo3560
Aha...got em'
Well guess I’m gonna travel 3,000 miles for a tattoo.
lol
lol, i just have to travel like five minutes
Let's go, dude!
Yep I know where I'm getting my next tattoo... Love the whole vibe... The art is outstanding!!!
That’s the same plan for men
I got work done by them recently and it was such a wonderful experience. Beautiful artwork, skilled at what they do. Professional, kind, and even helped me come down from some anxiety. Love them and the passion they put into their shop and craft.
How did you get a price for your tattoo from them? Did you email them or did you visit them in person? I want some work from them so bad but im 5 hours away.
NOFOOD? I travelled from the west coast to get work from them. Their website I think outlines the basics, and if you have a design approved they go into more detail from there. If it’s the same, there was a 100$ deposit that goes towards the time to design your piece. And then the tattoo is 200$/hr. I had a medium sized piece done and though I was basically there from 11-5om, I was charged for 3.5 hours.
merprincesspacifica wow respect, Ill check their site thanks!! 🙏
Did they gave u Xanax?
Danny Phantom haha no, just didn’t treat me like a doofus. Talked about their own anxieties and were just all around nice guys.
I have two tattoos by Matt and they are stunning! I get compliments all the time, they are great artists
Do you know if they accept credit card? 👀♡
@Jason Bouphasavanh I'm using my own credit card.
I'm not from the States and I don't wanna carry cash around, specially if the cost is $100 per hour; but even if it wasn't like that, idk why does it matter to you enough to bring it up.
Nana Dixon someone else said it’s $200 an hour but $100 deposit :)
Damn girl, you humbly pulled a massive flex on everyone in this comment section
He was on season 8 of ink master!
Now I want a tattoo from them! Creepy but lovely at the same time!
True
Anyone know what kind of tattoo style this is? I’ve been looking for similar designs.
Fuck yea

Better title(s)
1. *When Goth kids grow up*
2. *If Tim Burton was a tattoo shop*
3. *Meet David Blaine's stunt doubles*
4. *If a Hot Topic manager could draw*
Also, I kid I kid. These guys are awesome and super talented. I could never make art like this so instead I make stupid jokes.
Hey, nothing wrong with having a sense of humour.
What is wrong is that you actually have to say you're joking in these comments or you'll attract trollers & idiots making nasty reply comments.
@@msstarlight4770
Ya, that's pretty much why I put the disclaimer at the bottom. I was already picturing the comment "you're just jealous because you suck". People often over react to jokes. I was also a bit concerned that the twins in the video might see it, as I'm sure they will seek out the video, and my intention and hope isn't to personally offend them.
@@acetate909 I think this is just an excerpt of another video, So they probably wont see the comments here, but you never know, right?
But even if they did, I'm sure they have a sense of humour.
@@msstarlight4770
Is it part of the Vice series 'Tatoo Age'? I haven't checked to see if they posted any new content recently. I have many tats and I am in awe of the artists and their work. I haven't heard of these two before but I'll look into it. Thanks.
@@acetate909 Thanks for replying, I don't know if it's part of that or not. But when I said 'I think', that was me guessing it was part of a longer video because of how short it was & how watching it just gave me the feeling that it was an excerpt of something much longer. You could ask Vice, themselves, for more info. & also, there are links in this videos description to the twins social media things, I don't know how all those things work, but maybe there is a way to ask the twins questions through those. I sincerely apologise if I misled you into thinking there definitely was a longer, more in depth video.
: )
I really love their art style. It’s elegant, dark, and unique. 🖤
The "double eye" thing is so freakin cool. wow Im deeply impressed with the brilliant art
I've been following these boys on instagram for awhile love to see them getting bigger and bigger, they are the pinnacle of lovely goth culture
Kat Eldritch what’s their Instagram?
@@evez5104 @ryanmrray and @mattwmurray and if you like their styles you should also check out @therichwren
Y'all made this video creepy for no reason.
More like you made this comment for no reason
@@angelicaobrien8280 Ok, Angelica Obrien.
Eh, gives it a nice vibe. I liked it
That’s kinda the whole point....
Bad Bitch no, it’s a little over the top, the video should speak for itself, not the soundtrack. silence would’ve been better.
I am 10th generation grandchild to Rebecca or (Goode) Nurse, she was accused of being the head witch and was hung during the trials. Her sons cut her down during the night and brought her home and buried her in a hidden grave. A few years later the family was recompensed about $5,000 for the injustice. Her daughter Katherine Nurse married John Russell, my family lineage. I was born on the witches sabbat Imbolc Feb 1st 1960, the dawn of the age of Aquarius.
Ok
Fuck off
Legit dont listen to them, that is really cool that you know that and have a connection with Salem and the situation that happened during that time
sweet af!!
And you have a best friend named Valak too huh
Plot twist:They survived the Salem witch trials
The girl has a soul eater tattoo on her leg
Omg I didn't notice till I saw ur comment 👀
Lmao I never noticed 😂😆😁
Aye~ I saw that too
The moon
Yessssssss I was just about to say did no one notice the moon on her leg?
Identical twins, tattoo artists and from Salem... yes
I love their studio, vibe, artwork, style. It's gothic and the macabre is awesome.
Wow their work is sooo amazing!! Clean sharp lines and beautiful details, if the music wasn't playing the video wouldn't sound creepy
That is amazing.
I would love to get an apprenticeship with them.
@@EDDYTHEBONERCAT If I wasn't serious about it, I would've not commented so. Lol. But yeah, I get it.
@@EDDYTHEBONERCAT Haha, you're taking it all the wrong way. I said I understand all that, needing to do the research, draw daily, etc etc. Tattooing is a serious career I would love to be a part of.
@@EDDYTHEBONERCAT chill
@@maeve5285 your right thats the last time im gonna try help someone who hasnt proved themself with tattooing
@@ominousomi1061 yeh whatever man its just the way you replied its a fucked subject for me cause theres too many people in this industry who only do it cause its the mainstream and aint true to the artform i know for a fact trying to talking like this on a vice or whatever this is vid aint gonna work cause 1% of yall aint gonna understand what im trying to say and think im gatekeeping tattooing which i aint who am i to do that i just think tattooing should be done right and with respect for those who came before who progressed tattooing not those who copy work or apprentice 2000 people who cant draw and just wanna get into it so they can do sick tattys on there friends
Vice your channel is so much better without the obvious bias of so many of your journalists. Keep it guys. I'm again enjoying your channel
Honestly I didn’t even want to watch this video because I thought it would be biased, I like your comment.
I wish there was a full documentary about them, their history with Salem and their tattoo shop.
I absolutely adore everything about this. Their art is so beautiful!
Can I just live there in their shop, like I don't have to say anything or do anything, just feed me food from time to time
@Sleazy Challenger I'm a human not a toy
sarah j. Bitch shut yo mouth
Well I can be the maid of that place, with Victorian attire, even cook for the guys haha! And I must admit I hate cleaning. But I'll do it just to be around such an inspirational store and these guys. Their personalities seem quite interesting. And I would save dollar by dollar to get some sick concepts in my mind... tattooed.
I remember them on ink master.. the judges sent one home because they figured it would be the same
Ahh okay yeah I remember that
Twins who have a close bond must be a great feeling. Knowing that you are never alone in the world, a soul shared and lived as one.
These 2 are AMAZING artists. I'm from Massachusetts and always loved visiting Salem (around October especially) and got to know Laurie Cabot a bit and she was just a delightful woman. There are so many things that are just wonderful about Salem and these incredible twins are part of that now! I need some fresh ink anyway, so I should make an appointment soon...😉💀🖤🎃🦇🕸🕷 Excellent video, thanks VICE for putting this out there!!
Been following their work for years on instagram. Incredible artists!
The aesthetic of their shop and their tattoos are amazing ♥️
Been following these two on insta for years, it's awesome to see their shop getting the attention it deserves!
Been following these guys on insta for years, so happy to see their getting this recognition they deserve for the beautiful art work they create
I've been following these guys for years now, I'm absolutely in love with their work. Fits my style so perfectly and it would be a dream to get tattooed by them someday. Unfortunately I live overseas.
Favorite Portlandia sketch! (Just kidding, beautiful work)
😂😂😂😂 I’m dying
they have been some of my favorite tattoo artists for so long now. I love their style so much.
I’ve been following them on insta for a while, and I’m so glad they’re finally getting the recognition they deserve!!!
Getting tattooed by them is now on my bucket list😍
What an amazing shop! These guys are awesome. Been following them for a while now!
I been following these guys Instagram page forever and WISH for the day to be tatted by them. It’s so cool to see a video on their work
I've been a fan of matt and ryan for a few years now. Love how they are finally getting recognized for their talents
I was in Salem a while ago for a nearby wedding. Didn’t know these guys were there, love to get a tat from them.
"Come play with us. Come and play with us, Danny."
...sorry, I couldn't help it.
The shining, yes!!!! Good one 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
“For Ever, and Ever, and Ever.”
Being tattooed by Matt was the best tattoo experience I’ve ever had. I’ve gone to him twice (being from the Salem area myself) and they create such a welcoming space each time. It’s been a little while since I’ve last been tattooed by Matt but hoping to go back soon! The way they work with each other is fascinating to watch
I paused the video to go and follow them on Instagram. Beautiful tattoos, inedible talent! ❤️
Well I have found something to add to my bucket list lol...the tattoos are amazing
The ultimate tattoo style and studio in my opinion. It fulfills my darkly inclined mind as I find beauty in darkness. Being a Goth, it really caught my attention. Loving the crow piece a lot. I would love to get some spooktacular art added to me. I have sleeves but there is more canvas to be drawn upon. Cool video!👍🌙💀👻
Dory M. Tomaselli wth says spooktacular lmao
I've had a couple friends get tattoos from them. I've never heard anything except praise for great work and a great experience from anyone that's gone there.
I LOVE their aesthetic and style! Their drawn art and the embodiment of their lifestyle are already amazing and inspiring, though combined with their skill in inking makes their whole effort even more worth beholding!
love her soul eater moon tattoo
i drove from Cleveland to Salem last year and got a piece done by Ryan!!
Jeff life finds a way Goldblum wow 😂
damn that is far.
I think they're amazing and their bond is clearly inseparable! Their work is absolute beautiful and they're both incredibly talented x
I’ve been trying to see them for a few years, I love their work so much!
That shop is dope asf!
Did anyone see the Soul Eater moon?
Also I live for their aesthetic and it’d be so sick to get a tattoo 👌🏼
well, i guess i'm gonna travel from brazil to salem just to get a tattoo with these guys. their job is incredible, i'm in love with it.
So cool! Great art work!!
I need a tattoo from them. My ancestors were part of the Salem witch trials. This is so wow. Amazing.
HELLOitsME393 a rube is born every minute
*NUDE TAYNE* *HATWOBBLE* and why are you being rude?
Golden7683 one my great(s) grandmother way down the line was an accused witch but was married to John Hail and was never put to trail
HELLOitsME393 i had a goth friend that used to say the same type of shit about how her ancestors were occultists and stuff lol it was bullshit too lol
NASTY HAM I have proof in my last name so i know im not making anything up 🤷🏼♀️
I followed them on ig a couple of days ago
what a coincidence !
Same
Beautiful work!!
I've been following these guys for ages and I'm dying to get their work on myself sometime in the future; so glad they're getting more publicity.... their talent, passion, and witchy, mystical, dark vibes are just so incredible.
Lexi gots that soul eater moon I see , that's dope
I would watch them if this was a tv show
I got a tattoo from Ryan a few days ago and it was the best experience. He is so talented and so kind and their shop is amazing. I'm definitely returning for another from him.
It's interesting watching this having known someone close to them for a moment and seeing how they evolved and how similar this person is to them. Very cool. Thanks for sharing.
3:32 Ok Lexie I see you with your Soul Eater tattoo 🙌🏻
Right? J was going to comment on it as well. I thought it was amazingly done and a nice size too
Krystal Brenes yep same 😀
Remember the twins from the shining this is them now
Feel old yet?
Their transition is going well I see
This is what I have been looking for❤️
I've now gotten 4 tattoos, all by Ryan, him and Matt are amazing artists and really good guys.
Amazing. Its so dark, creepy and beautiful at the same time their Tattoo place. I wanna marry them..either one is them is fine♥♥😅 anyway I hope I visit Salem soon.
1:06 lmao the dudes junk in a bag.
I've never felt more called to people as artists in my life. Inspiration
They are absolutely amazing! Beautiful pieces 🤗
Did anyone else notice that Lexie has the soul eater moon on her calf?
I wanna be their friend lol. They seem so cool 😊
Gorgeous work omg
I HAVE FOLLOWED THEM ON INSTAGRAM FOR A WHILE THIS MADE ME SO EXCITED
Y-yeah, I'm in love with them...
Have I watched this before?
No, you havent.
I’ve been wanting to get a tattoo from them for years and years! Love their aesthetics....
I’ve been dying to go to them for so long! I’m glad they’re getting recognition their work is sick!
Was I the only one tripping out at 1:07 ???
Anyone else notice the girls soul eater tattoo 👌
I’ve loved them and their work for years!!!
The whole studio is just beautiful..and the ravennn! So gorgeous!😍😍😍
I remember these two, they barely pulled through on Ink Masters
Ziggystardust you do know that shit is staged and scripted? It’s all fake
Ryan followed me on insta, this is wild
got my first tattoo in their previous location. shop was always so cool, will never forget the original black veil but the new studio is amazing as well
I’ve loved these two ever since I stumbled onto their Instagram page a couple years ago.
To be tattooed by them is a huge dream of mine lol
Their style is just perfection....I love everything about it
holy hoppin hipster these guys are cool cats
Oh shit, that's the guy from Ink Master.
Adithya. Lmao I remember in one of the challenges they were like “dude we get it, you’re from Salem”
Seahorse Trash what episode?
I like how they go to each of input after tattooing. Shows they actually care about their artwork that you are gonna wear forever
Some of the best art work I've seen.
Bruh that blonde chick looks crazy af
ikr, you can see it in her eyes
Her red face freaks me the fuck out
When she referenced witches burning in Salem when literally none of the victims were actually burned like girl stop trying so hard 💀
Girls that think they are witches :(. . .im over them
Oof. It makes me uncomfortable when they blink out of sync.
Beautiful work
Yo why is her face so red
Spell gone wrong
kobus yup the cauldron backfired
She’s a NC20 but wears NC45
was wondering the same thing. When she said witches don't burn forever was pretty funny cause her face looks like a bad sunburn
YUNG LOST she embarrassed for herself deep down
Ugh such my aesthetic....i always get weird looks when i ask for goth,creepy,vampy tattoos which is why my sleeve isnt complete.
Amazing work!!! Amazing talent
Super nice work ... great stuff .... ✌🏼
Any skaters cringe when she was getting a tattoo on her shins? XD
Their work is amazing, but I find it so odd when twins and triplets avoid having their own personality.
It's not avoiding having a different personality. They are probably pretty different. Just because they share the same career and dream doesn't make them devoid of personality.
Got to meet Matt and Ryan while they were tattooing my brother in their first shop. Great guys, and very talented.
I've gotta say. Their work is amazing.
The people who were accused of witchcraft in Salem weren't witches, and they weren't burned, they were hung.
Eh who knows, perhaps one practiced the dark arts ;)
@@bluecollarcommentator7772 Its surely possible. But that saying "we are the granddaughters of the witches you couldn't burn" is wildly inaccurate, and also completely disregards male witches. Idk, its just one of those dumb things that bugs me.
@@NotAyyOhFee ahem, "warlocks"
@@bluecollarcommentator7772 Witch is gender neutral
