I fondly remember seeing them at the long defunct Rock And Roll Heaven club in Toronto in either '91 or '92--front row, hammered, moshing, high-fiving Piggy--will always be a great memory--Hail Voivod
They are from the city where im born. Jonquiere. I went to school with Denis "Piggy" Damour daughter. I'm a Voivoid fan since War and Pain and Tribal Conviction is my favorites Voivoid song !
you can see some of the younger people in that crowd are completely dumbfounded by such radical shifts in timing and tempo-- and what is this? something other than a powerchord?????? they just had their first alien encounter!
Proud of this band going from my little city Jonquière in Quebec Canada. A true influence of choice with their own style, their own color... Hails Snake and others voivods!!!!
I'm so proud that they're Canadian! But dam are they ever underrated,they are so original sounding & do their own thing. I've always wondered if they were American if they would have been bigger?
Soundgarden and FNM toured with them you mean , as they were just getting going and VOIVOD at the time had their biggest hit the NOTHINGFACE album. That was the first show of the 90;s I saw, Jan 1990. What a way to start the decade!!! Really looking forward to new album....
I saw this show at the Spectrum. One of the best i've seen. I had won 2 places for me and one of my buddy to go to Musique Plus for the Nothingface album special release show. We each had a bag when we arrived there which contained the album, a ticket for the january Spectrum show and a Nothingface tshirt, maybe more small things but this is all i remember. They all kindly signed our tshirt and Away gave me a drumstick. Voivod were happy to be there, they chat with the guests a little bit when not playing or interviewed and we had a very pleasing and relax 2-3 hours with the band and the Musique Plus crew. The only time i won something that was worth it.
I was into thrash/speed in high school. College radio had a late show on weekends and they'd spin the most obscure shit. I tuned each week and recorded everything I liked, I was exposed to a lot. This came out and it blew my mind, turned me off of the entire genre. I heard melodic dissonance. I heard groove. I heard textures that made my mind wander. Other bands tended to sound the same and became boring. Voivod stood apart. Even their earlier stuff, just something about it.
Great comment! Metal isn't really my genre but thanks to Spotify I can check out a ton of new bands really easily. Voivod was so out there I had to give it a few more listens but after it clicked I had to listen to ALL their albums. They really do stand apart. DH is my fave!
Dance for masters...primitive Full of colors...offensive I've just arrived Like a flash in the dark My life has been Lit up like a spark They turn around the big fire They sing a song to get higher I've just got here To find underbrains I'll watch their voodoo That starts the rain Are there any forces Are there two faces Are there some chances We've never seen...that before It's what we've been...waiting for It just arrived To save our lives The flying lord The god of all time Have no idea....what it thinks But have no fear...we trust it It is the leader Of our sacred wars Came from the sky It rules so far Are there any forces Are there two faces Are there some chances They're searching for something Something to believe in... Their convictions Blood effusion Is it a crime Their convictions Self-destruction At the right time Their convictions Exploitation Under the sigh It's gonna be more It's gonna be war It's gonna be... Who's the god Who's the dog Who's the dog Who's god...Who's dog Who's god...Who's dog Who's god...Who's dog Who's god...Who's dog
Actually when I think about it,There has never been a Canadian metal act that has made it big like Megadeth,Metallica,Anthrax,Slayer type of status. You got Anvil,Sacrifice,Cancer Bats,3 Inches of Blood etc but not to the status of the bands I mentioned above. I'm not a fan but you got your very successful mainstream Canadian rock acts that have made it big in the states like Nickleback,Theory of a Deadman,Rush,Sum 41,Avril Lavigne.& lesser known acts like Big Wreck,54-40,Tragically Hip,TeaParty
Thanks I thought it was piggy at first,he actually favors him,but he's taller,he played piggy's parts very good,piggy was the most underrated guitarist ever,he ruled r.i.p!!
Dimension Hatröss is a monument of metal music
No one can replace Piggy, but obviously this guy can shred, and he holds true to Piggy's riffs in a respectful way.
Just saw a documentary video saying he was a fan since a young teen. Really cool to be able to integrate into one of your favourite bands!

One Voivod family!
This is what great music looks and sounds like. 35 years in and still breaking ground. Voivod is family.
you can see some of the younger people in that crowd are completely dumbfounded by such radical shifts in timing and tempo-- and what is this? something other than a powerchord??????
they just had their first alien encounter!
+Michael Bath HAHAHA They fuckin did!
Its the King Crimson influence for sure.
these guys are fucking awesome, we love these guys in Australia
Proud of this band going from my little city Jonquière in Quebec Canada. A true influence of choice with their own style, their own color... Hails Snake and others voivods!!!!
Tribal Convictions is my favourite Voivod song
Amazing rhythm, lead guitar, chords. Love this band!
This bass looks like a weapon.
It is!
The 'Blower Bass'.
I have a feeling that Michel "Away" Langevin is the only member of Voivod to have been an ever present member since they started in the early 1980s
Best heavy metal i ever heard...Peace to all of you heavy metalers..!!!
Classic and brilliant masterpiece!!!
I'm so proud that they're Canadian! But dam are they ever underrated,they are so original sounding & do their own thing. I've always wondered if they were American if they would have been bigger?
I don't think so, it's too weird for most casual listeners. Voivod is mostly a bands' band.
Thank you, VOIVOD, for being VOIVOD
One of the best metal hits of all time.
what a tiny drum kit and yet it sounds massive . love this band man .
Yeah totally different from the drum kit seen in the 1986 live video from NY. It was huge back then lol
Voivod is what mother ships play loud during battle.
Mis mejores recuerdos escuchandolos en la Patagonia a fines de los 80s. Thanks for posting.
Love this band! This was the first Voivod song I heard :)
Liberatore guitars refuses to build replicas of the blower bass.
So I had a another custom shop build me a replica based on it.
This song from MTV Headbangers ball back in the eighties hard as fuk!
Soundgarden and FNM toured with them you mean , as they were just getting going and VOIVOD at the time had their biggest hit the NOTHINGFACE album. That was the first show of the 90;s I saw, Jan 1990. What a way to start the decade!!!

Nice to see Blacky
именно из-за этой песни я считаю войводов уникальной командой, трэш мегатронами!! это супер рок!
The kids in the crowd just didn't get it.
Captain_Mogsey
Same thoughts!
Right
Agree. They want their Justin Bieber show i guess..

Like a flash in the dark
My life has been
Lit up like a spark
They turn around the big fire
They sing a song to get higher!
Sounds fantastic!
awesome video! thanks for posting!!!!!!!!! these dudes are so underrated
Away kicks butt, Voivod Rules !
That bass look like an alien weapon 👽
My favorite band :)
I really enjoyed this thank you so much!
Blacky was there. Great. But sad, he ran away
The Rush of cosmic Canadian space thrash
The best group in world!
Senks
Wow, just awesome....
Damn! Is there a way I can get a bass like that???
I'm so happy that you're back in the band Jean-Yves.
do you know what bass is that?
@@raniajoy It's a Liberatore Blower Bass. Made by a luther in Quebec that is retired now.
CarcPazu
WOW!
I was listening to this at night and the beginning had me thinking someone was knocking at my window. Scared the shut out of me!
Dance for masters...primitive
Full of colors...offensive
I've just arrived
Like a flash in the dark
My life has been
Lit up like a spark
They turn around the big fire
They sing a song to get higher
I've just got here
To find underbrains
I'll watch their voodoo
That starts the rain
Are there any forces
Are there two faces
Are there some chances
We've never seen...that before
It's what we've been...waiting for
It just arrived
To save our lives
The flying lord
The god of all time
Have no idea....what it thinks
But have no fear...we trust it
It is the leader
Of our sacred wars
Came from the sky
It rules so far
Are there any forces
Are there two faces
Are there some chances
They're searching for something
Something to believe in...
Their convictions
Blood effusion
Is it a crime
Their convictions
Self-destruction
At the right time
Their convictions
Exploitation
Under the sigh
It's gonna be more
It's gonna be war
It's gonna be...
Who's the god
Who's the dog
Who's the dog
Who's god...Who's dog
Who's god...Who's dog
Who's god...Who's dog
Who's god...Who's dog
All (that) you feel.... is not real....VIRTUAL EMOTIONS! Hey! Jonathan Jensen!
+Ray Greyson Huh?
perfect!!!
Dat Bass tho!
I seem to remember that Piggy used to make all of his guitars from a young age but I can't remember if Blacky did the same? You might be right.
