black midi - Welcome To Hell 

DAWWWWG FACTS

saga for the super sauce in regular show type of MV

That’s awesome! What songs are you on?

How excited should we be? ;3

Woah! I love your trumpetwork on Islands and Lizard!

i’m so excited 🥲🥲🥲🥲

Sir did you just say album...? Holy shit...

The spiritual successor to Sgt Baker

the riff and the intro groove sounds eerily similar to John the Fisherman. definitely a tribute.

thank god its not just me

I think it’s setting him up to be the villain and the rabbit girl is actually the “hero”

Yeah he is the sort of creepy villain character of this one, probably representing the militaristic focus in the lyrics

I’m starting to see what you guys are saying, he seems like a stalker obsessed with the rabbit girl.

Is he a hero tho? I think it shows the corruption of obsession with the ‘slow guy’ and the rabbit girl gets too overwhelmed with hate so she decides to end it but she becomes enveloped in the hell he creates.

@@MetallicaFan5591 seems like he was the one enveloped in the hell she created, until he bites her face off

Should of known u were into these guys dude! Love ur vids xxx

no way

Alex kister is into black midi?????

an unexpected guest, pleasant surprise

based Alex kister

time traveler moment

I'm more of an Album 4 guy myself but god damn this song is a classic

Bruv I prefer the 2.5 one, it had good songs on there

Album 9 was a stunningly defiant mid-career statement piece, but 5 stuck out to me as well

@@-Siwel- YES!!!

timestamp to the 953 riff? dont hear it anywhere.

@@lazztronica4998 not one for one the same riff, but similar notes. Around 3:30 ish and 3:42 ish

Im so glad they got better audio engineering. I love Calvacade but my god the audio mixing was crap

@@godiebeard Idk what you’re listening on but the mixing on cavalcade is sick

@@lukecherchenko5930 I saw someone call it “digital slush” and they are sadly correct

The way I interpreted it is that he is a stalker, stalking this girl. This girl is a relationship with another person. The boy spies on her with a camera which he hid in the flowers. The girl fins out and somehow show the guy hell. He either drugs him, or she is a goddes and literally sends him to another universe, or place. Here he is guided by an arrow, maye representing his will or his hate or something, and he gets powers by following it. There he found a device, a computer, that shows him all possible universes, which he uses to find the girl. (here fits the story of the video for Slow) With that device, he finds the start of all timelines/universes, which is the "angel of death", the biblical correct angel also seen on Slow. He kills/smashes the core containing the angel of death, which seems like an egg, or the representation of that angel. After the core is broken, the universe explodes, and the angel of death is free. Then he returns back to his own world. Here he finally found the girl, which wants to kill him. But he kisses her and then kills her. And then suddenly a God Warrior from Nausicaä spawns from the sky and eats them both. At least I believe the guy, when he was in the other world and put in the other body, he found that computer. That computer shows timelines/universes. I think the guy was looking through all the timelines/universes to find that girl, and when he couldnt find her, her went to the origin of everything, which is the "angel of death", the biblical angerl, who spawns when the world and universe explodes in Slow, and destroys her (egg (, which is the universe?)), and thus all timelines/universes that originated from that angel or perhaps god or devil. My story is probably very flawed. But Its a start, hopefully. Maybe you can improve some things?

this is one of their tamest songs imo

@@user-xu4xw6jm7d their most accessible rock song

yes

​@@ktakyonlike half of the songs on the album are more accessible than this

Every black midi song is just the most incredible thing I’ve ever listened to

They sound like they came from the underground of the 70s and listened to some modern jazz

king gizzard lol. but black midi definitely gives them a run for their money

@@gwen6622 love gizzard

@@gwen6622 I love king gizzard to death but on a lot of their songs you can clearly hear their influences which isn’t a bad thing at all it’s just that for me black midi sounds like they came from outer space lol

Watch their music video for "Slow" too if you haven't already, fucking amazing

It's so cool. Reminds me of Kaiba

@@maestromastufi7158 yeah between the artstyle and consciousness being transferred between bodies, this is definitely heavily inspired

@@maestromastufi7158 well spotted ; )

@@sevi_iko_domochevsky You and the team involved in this did a fantastic job!

i'm pretty sure the part at 3:20 represents sal realizing that all those people are sockpuppet accounts of the incel/jerkhead

Yeah, it's unmistakable!

My thoughts exactly. The resemblance is clear! Its cool seeing Kaiba get more attention in the last few years. Id still call it an underrated gem!

Yeah the comparisons are kind of exhausting after awhile...

Midiverse confirmed.

Have you heard of Tilliam Billiam? groundbreaking artist he is so great and better than Tradsh Midi

@@iloveprogrock9354 Going to check them out. Shitting on this band to do so is kinda stupid and unnecessary tho.

@@matthewkeogh8102 Absolutely!! That song is such an epic and bone-chilling closer just like The Whole World Window or Foundling.

you ever heard of masaaki yuasa's kaiba?

@@showmaker8168 No, care to explain to us?

@@rockkiller124 the music video just reminded me of kaiba, its an old anime about fading memories and shit. pretty cool

@@showmaker8168 Sounds interesting, gonna check it out

@@showmaker8168 Lol I remember watching this somewhere but didn't know what it was called, thanks for reminding me the title

If the deciphering is correct, it looks to me like he's kind of a stalker

@@pt1107 well his name wasnt friendlyface

So I watched it a few times and went back to Slow (which honestly makes it more difficult) Obviously Jerkhead is a weird stalker and the music video seems to be about how that leads to violence or how his obsession is destructive towards the unnamed pink character. The Slow music video doesn't really give any context it just shows the end of his journey into hell/the thing in the sky and him destroying the amulet that pink hair has (which appears to protect her?). I'm sure the lyrics of Slow have some thematic relevance. As for the lyrics of this song I think they reflect the often exploitative and misogynistic culture of armed forces. Manipulating and and abusing young impressionable men into violence and unthinking obedience can lead to further violence being inflicted on others. I think the song and the video are ultimately about obsession and violence, best represented when jerkhead forcibly kisses pink hair and then rips off her face

@@TheLetterH111 That's what I got. I didn't think about the war part though. I also think the Pink girl's name is "Salama". That's the name it had on the site Jerkhead finds her at the "incel bar", if this is decoded properly, its a name that means peace. It could all be an ironic metaphor about wanting peace so bad that countries fight for it. Fitting, because he is surrounded by tanks facing towards Salama at the end.

He's a stalker. He plants a camera in the girls house and while at a recreational building, watches live footage of her masturbating. He posts it to social media. She goes home one day to notice a flower in her house and the video of her all over social media. Then revenge/battle.

black count

Ant

was just thinking about both bands and how they both have similar quality despite outputting albums at different rates (no shade to either band lmao)

@@arman2774 damn someone pissed in your coffee

@@arman2774 No it is not a Zappa thing. but i also dont agree with the KG thing either tbf. OG was quite meh and so was Fishing for fishies

@@NoCokeOnlyIce nah KGLW are not bad (oddments and im in your mind are good albums), it's just i get pissed off whenever people think of highly profilic, it's always KG eventhough there are so many other highly profilic artists who have a way better output like FZ or R Stevie Moore

No please. They should take their time with their music

*LISTEN!*

the sweet peals of moonlight induced lovemaking on the streets tonight!

Bro same, I had done the same thing when John L was released and the only versions you could find prior were from radio shows. Such an immaculate band

cant wait to be hearing this reggae fusion breakdown in the verse🤤

Death Grips about to be like hold my pentagram

I mean I very much have been viewing Black MIDI as the next gen of bands like mr. bungle.

I would say that this has more of a Cardiacs feel but to be fair, the Bungle bois love Cardiacs so your observation isn't wrong at all.

Mr Bungle for sure but the instrumentation and chord progressions scream of Cardiacs, as do songs like Hogwash and Balderdash

Cardiacs, really

@@AliceYobby absolutely. Not exactly far fetched especially given that black midi have played with acts such as The Display Team, Spratley's Japs, and other Brixton bands whom have very close connections to that band.

Cardiacs is the best

A winning combination in the food world at least. Think crème brûlée.
