My favorite thing about MIW is that they can hit us in the face with a heavy ass song and then turn around and hit us right in the feels with a heart wrenching song. I love them so much! 🤘🏼🖤

I can't express how much I like Chris. Such an amazing human being. The interview was also VERY well done. Really dug into the headspace of the band for this record. I felt the interviewer was well spoken and you could feel his excitement. Great progression of questions. Well done Rock Sound.

Just saw black veil brides, ice nine kills, three days grace, and motionless in white in St. Augustine for the first time ever. It was my first ever concert too! All of them are amazing bands that know how to perform their hearts out! But motionless in white has become my new favorite band, looking forward to seeing them again.

I love how Chris really seems honest, down to Earth and humble. I have been listening to Cyberhex on the treadmill everyday! Gets you amped up!

@shadowbound615 2 года назад

I think it's difficult to pinpoint their heaviest song. Being that "Burned at both ends" is a different kind of heavy than "Break the cycle" or "soft" or ""Immaculate misconception " etc. But I can say that Motionless in White can get away with about any type of genre at this point. I like the party vibes, the smash stuff vibes, the deep feels vibes, and whatever. They have fun playing, we have fun listening. One thing is for sure, they're consistently Motionless in white.

@trishscarlett2959 2 года назад

Right. Like every song is so different but the second any song by them is played you know it's MIW immediately regardless of the sound. Like Cyberhex Vs City Lights. Very different but you know it's the same band regardless of how different they are.

@Kat-mu8wq 2 года назад

Chris is such a sweetheart. Musicians with this genre typically get a bad rap, but when you actually hear him speak you can tell how well educated he is, he's so incredibly well spoken and his voice is soft. I'm sure the rest of the band is great, but I've not seen many interviews with them 😂

@brandonray8409 2 года назад

Favorite song is thoughts and prayers until I heard masterpiece!! I think motionless in white and Memphis May Fire are the two best bands in the business!! Chris and matty are by far my favorite vocalist only behind chad grey of mudvayne and Hellyeah!! ( rest in piece vinnie Paul!)

Chris is such a genuine person with so much vocal talent. Masterpiece is the best but I love a majority of MIW tracks. Those three bands are in my top five favorite bands and wish I could go if was not so physucally sick all the time.

@ninanoxious530 2 года назад

It's so hard to choose what song is the heaviest when it comes to Motionless. That being said, every song they have come out with is in my opinion heavy since the guys put so much effort and attention into creating and performing it.

At the St Augustine leg of Trinity of Terror, Chris saw a guy with a sign asking to come on stage and said "I can't because of COVID but when we come back through (and we will) remind me and I'll bring you up here." Just a class act all around. Phenomenal performer. Edit: sp

The legs of the tour refer to the different sections they do, usually north america, Europe, asia etc... It'd be the st Augustine show/stop for a specific city.

Puppets 3 is probably their heaviest track imo but i am loving the new songs, the writing of cyberhex and masterpiece are extremely good and i think that the new album will be a masterpiece in itself and i'm looking forward to its release.

@scubbasteve8418 2 года назад

I still believe that Motionless in White should join Black Veil Brides, Bring me the horizon and falling in reverse to make a huge emo song. It’s never been done before, I don’t think. But I believe it could be huge if they did so. Four bands that are still doing a lot and very well in the emo scene or whatever people call it anymore😂🤘🏻

"Soft" is indeed their heaviest song!!! It has a Slipknot groove similar to "Heretic Anthem" and it's played in Drop A as well..a certified banger of a track IMO🤘! "Abigail" would be a close second too.

@StoneGossardsGuitarPick 2 года назад

@CyanideDrip570 2 года назад

I’d honestly say their heaviest would be puppets 3; it’s really easy to say that because Dani filth is on that song. Puppets 2 is a close 2nd but you can’t get much heavier than the 3rd. Fatal also comes close; I absolutely loved that song. Sick from the melt will always be their hidden gem I wish they played more of.

@trishscarlett2959 2 года назад

I love how diverse MIW's music is like you can tell the songs they produce are their own but they're all so different, I think as far as the most heavy song goes its probably immaculate Misconception or Soft

@HEADBANG3R93 2 года назад

Now, maybe I missed it, but can someone tell me where they discussed 'Masterpiece' in here? I heard them talk about the collabs on the rest of the album and Cyberhex, but I never heard them mention Masterpiece and I really wanna know how that one came about. It's so beautiful and raw, like it could be told from either lover's perspective and I love it.

@jeffgarlitz8747 2 года назад

@katherinerentschler694 2 года назад

Scissorhands helped me a lot while having panic attacks during the pandemic. Creatures and Graveyard Shift as albums, helped me to get through my first year of my doctorate in neuroscience, and Sinematic made me realize that my abuser in 2020-21, was using my original research ideas against me to try and land me in the hospital and move on to the next woman. So, I think there is a lot of therapeutic value in music and applying it to your life, but personally for me, the heaviest song is Scissorhands for sure.

@JasonEllingsworth 4 месяца назад

To answer the question, Soft or The Ladder would be your heaviest songs. You have a lot of songs that are close, but these two are unrelenting, driving, heavy chugging, etc. I do like how you brought the heavy back for STEOTW, but only some of your deluxe edition tracks came close to the two mentioned. The knocked loose guest song was also close but grating because I can't stand that dudes vocals.
