The mighty tale of your favorite band and their adventures in Avatar Country, made possible through the backing and support of our beloved Citizens! Directed by Johan Carlén
Does anyone else feel like these guys are single-handedly sustaining the glory and magic of the early days of MTV with these clever, colorful, and amazing videos?
As much as I love visiting avatar country on the website, seeing the film getting put on youtube too is such good news. Now more future citizens will see the glory and come join us!
I literally just got blessed by the RU-vid rabbit hole of new videos and came upon Avatar, 2 weeks ago! And what timing for this. Definitely like this band a lot! Only other band I know outta Sweden (I believe they're from there) is In Flames.
Johanne is one of the best singers I have ever heard. He has a perfect guttural scream, and can hit some beautiful high notes. The entire band is great. I caught them late but trust me, I'm catching up.
Yeah, they deserve it. I've heard they aren't in the spotlight as much as they should be over the wildly successful bands ie AX7 and as a result under the radar. BUT, with fans like you and I we must support and share their music for all to hear!
@@cynicald380 Lol well aged comment. A7X’s new album is devoid of anything worthwhile, meanwhile avatar just released a fucking awesome album whose experimentation is genuine
Absolutely!! All their discography also shows how diverse they are. One of the very few bands I know where ALL the band members help with the songwriting process
Avatar is my new favorite band, and has the potential to be forever more. Dude has a HUGE range for metal/rock vocals. Clean, scream, growl, power metal with like Iron Maiden esq vocals. Just a huge talent! Plus, he dresses like if you just crossed The Crow with The Joker and Kefka from FF6. There is quite literally nothing about this I don't like. Yet another Swedish band that is a favorite of mine, them now ranking at #1. Favorite video sequence in this musical is Legend of the King. There's literally nothing I don't like about an evil looking clown dude flailing around the sky shouting death metal!
The one thing I love about this band is the sheer passion for their craft. Most bands focus on "making it" rather than following their hearts with the music and you can really tell that these guys have a passion that has not been seen for so many recent years. It's like when rock and roll was becoming a thing in the 60's and 70's and music now can just never capture that feeling anymore.

I love the fact that itvwas a creepy section of the movie and it was also a nightmare to record. Its sad they didn't feel good recording it but its sort of cool how it was unerving video and production wise
It is a privilege and pure joy to be living in the time of this incredible band's creative prime. I will continue to watch, listen, and bask in the brilliance they have seen fit to share with the world. The energy Avatar puts into music, visuals, and the themes and concepts of both, is nothing short of the pinnacle of art. And even the music alone just slays.
I love this band. I saw them live for the first time last October in Vegas. It was there I realized how serious they take their music. They aren't just in it for the money, but also for the love of music
@@Kaeladran I think so. I've only come across them recently. I think he means more need exposure to this amazing talented diverse catchy as fuck tunes band

I recently met the band but fell in love with their style and their wonderful music, I wish the band a lot of success and a big hug for each member❤❤❤🇧🇷❤❤❤
There is no words to describe my love for this band and their music. It's an honor to listen to this music and I take great pride in being a citizen of Avatar country!!!!
So, it's a movie about Our Metal King, and his loyal Metal Minions, fighting The War To End All Wars, to keep his beloved Metal, in his, even more beloved, Metal Kingdom of Avatar Country; for Him and all His People, to jam and head bang to, and for all to enjoy together, in unity, always and forever. Doesn't get more Metal than that. 🤘🏻
Avatar is such an important band. Metal in America has been more or less dead since Grunge came along. Avatar not only carries the torch of metal music, but they have elevated it in such a beautiful way with their melodious style. I hope today’s youth are inspired by these great guitarists to learn the instrument and make metal. The Avatar Country theme is so appropriate in a time where EDM, talentless noise, is mainstream. I’ve always thought of metal as musicians music, because it is probably a bit too complex for simpletons, and Avatar is the best example of this phenomenon. They are almost too good, because I can barely keep up with half of it, but it’s absolutely incredible music and highly underrated. Please keep up the great work! Feathers and Flesh, Hail the Apocalypse, and Avatar Country are all so phenomenal that they should be promoted for generations. It’s certainly not music for everyone but musicians need to hear it.
Excelente banda!! ES DE LO MEJOR QUE HE ESCUCHADO EN METAL DE ESTOS TIEMPOS!! y suecos!! era de suponer pues ellos son los que mejor hacen metal!! y aparte de eso son rigurosamente originales, eso me gusta, son geniales!!...Los esperamos con ansiedad en Latinoamérica, Rock al parque- Colombia es la cita!! Y VERÁN EL POGO MAS BRUTAL DEL MUNDO!!
The last time i've happily sat through what was essentially a musical was The Doomstar Requiem. I'm so glad this got funded. Avatar truly is the band we all need but don't deserve.
as much as i love this movie ( i have watched it six hundred and sixty-six times) the only criticisim i have is why not end with Statue of a King, seems to be the perfect ending
Oh my lord, Henrik is so 💘🙈 Thanks for sharing this, I enjoyed every song, the production and of course the story. You guys are f*cking A-W-E-S-O-M-E! I'm very proud of you :) Greetings from Colombia 🇨🇴
The goosebump during the battle ! When the metalheads know there's lost, but continue to fight until the end or simply waiting death side by side... beautiful !
I just discovered Avatar and i´m amazed, beatiful music, stories, performings, all parts of a stunning recipe,i feel like i´m traveling in a whole new world full of art. Thank you
I love this video!! Watch it ALL the time and it's gotten me through a trying time or 2. (but gaddmmit yt!! interrupting in the MIDDLE of a song is so fucking ignorant!) LOVE YOU AVATAR!!!
As an all-around music enthusiast, who doesn't generally hold any one genre above another, I thought it was kinda lucid of the misled House Beats fan to say 'It's not the music that made us evil'. It's always the intent.
I just realized the ending scream for king after king is a fliped version of the ending scream for legend of the king. Wether it was done on purpose or not i do not know.
THIS IS AN AMAZING VIDEO OF AVATAR ! ! I LOVED IT ALL , FROM THE BEGINNING TO THE ENDING. JOHANNES AND HIS BAND ARE GREAT ACTORS AND MUSICIANS ! ! AVATAR FOR LIFE ! !
Siempre piensan en sus fans primero la semana gratis y ahora esto cada vez amo mas a está banda por el cariño que le tienen a sus fans. Ojala algún día pueda verlos pisar tierras Peruanas. 🤘🤘
This is a super cool, beautiful movie!😘😘😘 I don't know how to express the full extent of my love for the band! I am pleased with the elaboration of small details.The flights look awesome, but it was clearly uncomfortable to shoot (I mean, hurt like hell). I love first meeting with the royal jester-Merlin (especially the way he exhaled when Tim didn't drown! I, too - although I saw earlier The King Welcomes You To Avatar Country); the fact that Johannes lives in the tower and Kungen reborn from rock🤘🤘🤘🤘; and how scientists headbanging under Tsar Bomba - like a country, like a scientists!😆😆😆 I was glad that they did without female nudity.😁 Male nudity is great. 🤩🤩🤩 It's a bit of a pity that in the end, Johannes did not manage to sing. Guys joked as usual.🤪 Filmed November, 21 - December, 20 2018 (for 24 days in 12-19 hour HEAVY work days, 1 day-off). Рost-production finished October, 6 2019.
Avatar Country has slowly become one of my fav metal albums. I can't wait to see what you guys have in store for us next. Hoping for another concept album
Skylar Tucker It was free the first week. Not at first this though, but then they were confronted with fans on their social media and made it accesible for a week and also made citizenship a bit cheaper.
Ends seems a bit abrupt, but otherwise it was pretty cool. And where is A statue of the king? I get it maybe doesn’t fit the chapter flow of the movie compared to the album but it could have been a good ending.
Yeah maybe they should have put A statue of the king at a different place in the album so it would more fit the story. I believe that it would have been great before The king wants you
