@@mateorosero9193 nah dude, metal heads should know that, and by your "girly mascots" comment you show you know less than just the name of Iron maiden's "mascot" (its also kinda ridículos yo put it that label lol)
Are you serious eddie really?? Shame on you! Weirdly im from new zealand and i accidently emailed an old lady one night asking for help to learn how to paint portraits. And she said hold on my flatmates making a cup of tea il ask him. None other than derek riggs!! The inventor of EDDIE. Killers album.1st one. His real name is actually electric matthew. Iron maiden changed his name. SORRY GUYS THE ARTIST DECIDES NOT YOU! I learned to paint and had a 15yr career because of an accidental encounter with the inventor if iron maidens success with album covers.
The horns thing with Gene Simmons is extra funny when you know that his argument is that he used the horns in the artwork for Love Gun--which was an original work done by someone the fuck else.
Instantly took me back to listening to their first album and loving Skylines and Turnstiles, though demolition lovers is my favorite off all their albums
I remember Skinny Puppy being very mad when they found out their music was being used for torture in that place. Love that band though, I just saw the hometown show of their final tour last weekend
I’m going to be picky and point out that both black metal and Viking metal are from Sweden because both were pioneered by the same artist (Bathory/Quarthon). Second Wave BM was Norway (Mayhem, Darkthrone, Immortal, Burzum, etc).
without the so called second wave of black metal we wouldn't have black metal as a distinct sound, though. Before the norwegian bans, black metal was just primitive satanic thrash - and that includes bathoy.
It's worth mentioning with the metal horns one that there's a much lesser known band called Coven who also claim to have created the metal horns. Supposedly the lead singer was in the occult, and that was their symbol before any band used it, although a lot of this is just conjecture.
Actually there is a photo of them doing it in the insert of their 1969 album "witchcraft destroys minds & reaps souls". Here is a link to the picture : decibelmagazine.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/covengatefold-572x385.jpg
Two facts about "The Black Album": 1. It has a real name, it's called "Metallica" 2. When Metallica last re-released that album, most of the proceeds went to a charity helping victims of a German flooding catastrophe.
Yeah, I was gonna mention that. Also there's a song called "Rattlehead" on Megadeth's first album, "Killing Is My Business... and Business Is Good". That was always one of my favorite Megadeth songs, and the 1st one I ever learned to play (well, the main riff at least; never really got good enough to play the solo sections 😠 ).
I remember reading an article in metal hammer about a band called Coven(iirc) and the lead claimed to have done the devil symbol first and it was a witch thing that got her ostracised from other witches because she did it publicly.
I did, but if I'm honest I only know that because I was the type of kid to find a new interest and research it on Wikipedia. I couldn't name you 5 Iron Maiden songs and I've never come into contact with them enough to know their mascot's name.
Amy marrying her therapist (if true!) wouldn't be a HIPAA violation, because that covers doctor-patient confidentiality. It COULD be a hippocratic oath violation, which is a set of general ethics but doesn't cover doctor-patient power dynamics. Despite their similar sounding names, the two aren't related.
Your devil horns question, gave me an idea for a horror movie. It’s metal but is a mix of it follows, trick or treat, Jennifer’s body and disneys the big green. Different people going to different concerts and not following proper concert behavior. So dying off, one by one, possible band mascots seeming very real depending on what concert they’re at and which bands agree to be in the movie. Ears bleeding, violent drumstick usage, and pyrotechnics all ensue. But by the end maybe they were all in the same band originally or pissed off the wrong satanic band and had a curse on them. I’d definitely watch
It would be cool to find out if the Rick Allen called up the drummer of ghost in side to give him some supportive advice, considering they were in a similar accident and both probably thought they'd never play the drums again.
Coming from an Italian family, the horns is an old symbol that goes way back, giving credence to the Dio-grandma story. Gene Simmons is always a businessman first, so it's not unreasonable to think he tried to make it his own to grow the brand
5:55 you guys haven’t watched the animated film Yellow Submarine by The Beatles. I’m not saying it was them, just saying it came out in 1968, so it had to be a thing. And no, I haven’t watched it long time ago and just remembering it wrong, I watched it a month ago and it struck me, because I thought Dio too. Then again, Ronnie Dio’s career goes all the way back in the late 50s, though not nearly as big at that point.
Regarding the Guantanamo Bay tortures, Israel started doing that to Hamas terrorists who got caught, but instead of metal ot was a children show theme song, the same one over and over and over again lol The show in question is called "Menny The Sprinkler Man". Menny the sprinkler man himself said in an interview "I tortured so many parents throughout the years with that song, but never imagined it's gonna be used to torture Hamas terrorists" XD
Actually way more gnarly, Rick Allens (def leppard drummer) arm got tangled in the seatbelt somehow, therefore Rick himself got ejected out of the car and his arm stayed in it
6:47 “Sweden is Viking" Um, actually... Bathory is considered the first viking metal band (from Sweden, yes), but most of the early viking metal bands were from Norway. Later, with bands like Amon Amarth, there was a Swedish trend. The majority are now both Norwegian or Swedish, but really they are from all over Europe, and I think even an Australian band or two.
Not through yet but at number 4, 4/4. Another trivia about Jonathans Davis' mic stand, designed by HR Giger - the man that designed Alien/Xenomorphs and the architecture of the alien derelict vessel. Let's see how many I get right at the end 🤣. 9/10 at the end. Did not get Amy Lee. And I admit, My Checmical Romance was a complete guess and the Def Leppard one was mostly "what's most likely to have happened" sort of guess. Pat myelf on the back, not as terribad as I thought I was gonna be 🤣.
Eddie the head, Vic Rattlehead and Henry are pretty much as iconic as band "mascots" go. Priest never really had a mascot other than that cross thingy.
Maiden fan here: Eddie is everything you make him to be. He's also the puppetmaster controlling the devil on Number of the beast, the murderer in Killers. He's a cyborg on Somewhere in time. He's the wickerman, he's a fucking tree for Fear of the Dark. On a Live cover he's even Steve Harris. He's a pilot on Aces High, and a samurai on their newest album.
Don't get me wrong. I love KISS. Got to see them live in the late 90s. Easily one of the best shows I've ever seen (and I've seen a ton!). But man, Gene Simmons is SO full of himself! I'm surprised he hasn't claimed that he invented oxygen yet!
Man, you guys are young. These questions are common knowledge for people my age. Then again, I could probably not answer any questions about the current bands you listen to.
Dio started the devil horns when he was in Black Sabbath as his signature hand gesture because Ozzy did the peace sign. His grandmother actually did the gesture to anyone who gave them a dirty look, it's to ward away the evil eye.
Common misconception about the metal horns. Coven was the first band in rock to use the metal horns. Check the back cover of their 1969 record for Witchcraft destroys minds, then look up when RJD started doing it. 🤘
Gaahl from Gorgoroth actually kidnapped and tortured someone after he found them on his property. he tried making him drink his own blood while singing lullabies into his ear. he stated that he made him drink his own blood because he didn't want the blood to get on his carpet. He actually got off on self defense because it the person (or maybe people) was trespassing on his property or something like that. it's a very bizarre story
Fact check: Geezer Butler recently proved he was the creator of the metal horns, through a Black Sabbath band picture, taken way before Dio joined. Geezer later gave Dio permission to use the symbol years later when he joined the band. He then made up the "grandmother" story.
Also some background context, 9/11 is the reason why Twilight exists because Stephanie Myers based the vampire characters off the looks of the band My Chemical Romance Also the US Army forced Panamanian Dictator Manuel Noriega to surrender after playing on loud speaker for over 30 hours Van Halen’s Panama on repeat to similar effect as what was used in Gitmo. Def Leppard drummer Rick Allen with help from NASA developed pressure pads that could emit a powered signal when pressed that were used on the space shuttle to be retrofitted for use in playing pre recorded drum tracks that Allen could manipulate with his feet and right arm to aid in his playing during live shows.
1. Iron Maiden 2. Dio 3.Sweden 4.Jonathan Davis - but i thought that was just from Aliens. lol 5. no idea 6.no idea 7. car accident - just guessing 8. black album 9. no idea 10 no idea Bob Rock produced the black album and i remember reading that it still outsold Megadeths Dystopia album the week it was released. Poor Dave
Idk why this video reminded me of this story but it did. I wasn't there for this but I heard about it from a large group of friends who witnessed it. I had a friend in high school who was a huge fan of Korn and had the most ridiculous crush on Amy Lee. Like if he wasn't talking about Amy Lee he was talking about Korn. When we were 15 or 16, there was a huge event nearby that had like 20 or 30 bands doing signings and selling merch and stuff and both Korn and Amy Lee were there. My buddy was so excited that he was practically wetting himself in line but when he got to the front of the line, the frontman for another band (I won't say who cause I can't prove it and don't want to get sued) stuck his foot out and tripped my friend who was both very short and acting like an excited puppy. My friend landed flat on his face perfectly sprawled out directly at Amy Lee's feet and got so embarassed he ran to the bathrooms and cried for half an hour. But one of the guys from Korn saw the entire thing and almost beat the other guy's ass before security got involved. Then he went and found my friend and gave him a whole bunch of free signed stuff. Some of the people who told me about it said Amy Lee laughed when my friend got tripped, other's said she didn't, but they all agreed she also tried giving him a signed album and he was too embarassed to take it. Idk how much of that story is true, but I do know he lost his crush for Amy Lee pretty quick afterward and he based his entire personality around Korn after that.
Fun thing, sweden is viking metal, norway is black, the first viking metal albums was a swedish black metal band and also the first band to actually create black metal
I would say coven was before dio with the metal horns but i could be wrong. Also black metal originally came from the uk and later evolved to other countries and Sweden was earlier with black metal than Norway until mayhem came around in 89
It was Dio. But Gene Simmons did it on the Love Gun cover in 1977. Well the artwork any way. He also sometimes played with his index finger and his pinky. So that’s were Genes deal came in, he just used to play with those fingers.
3:00 Yes he's called Eddie the Trooper, not even a Maiden fan, just born in 1982 so I'm involuntarily privy. 10:05 Gaahl was the guy in the Headbanger's Journey interview that famously said "..............................................................................................Satan."
The Trooper is a song about the Light Brigade, and Trooper Eddie is just regular Eddie as a trooper, Eddie has been a lot of things depending on the album or even shirt. Dios Horns came from either his mother or grandmother as a way to ward off the Moloch, or to give it in the form of the evil eye. Dio said in the Dio Doc that it was like Ozzys peace signs, *change peace sign to horns* but its ME now. I believe the Viking Metal is being attributed to Bathory who WAS and technically IS black metal, but more of the first wave, along with bands like mercyful fate, the first slayer, sepultura, etc. Hans Ruedi Giger designed the mic stand, a couple of them actually, I believe Davis has 2. He designed the Xenomorph, and its other forms, Sil from Species, and a version of the Bat Mobile. My band is named after him, GIGER. That man Gaahl tortured I think broke in, and he decided, "well since you're here...". Deicide I believe was ANOTHER band used, specifically with the song Fuck Your God for muslims. Classic joke, "What has 9 arms and sucks?" "Def Leppard." I don't know who is buying the black album because everyone has a copy, I assume you get one when you're born. Bob Rock did work with Bon Jovi, but was picked by Metallica for his work with Motley Crue. Know nothing about MCR other than Gary Holt of Exodus likes them because his daughter likes them. Evanescences music makes more since considering the lyrics AND the therapy.
1) Iron Maiden 2) Before you even bring up the multiple answers it was Ronnie James Dio/RJD era Black Sabbath 3) Vikings came from Norway so I'm going with that....wasn't Mayhem also from Norway? It's Google time! Yes, I was right. Wow I was wrong about the first answer though, I thought it was both. 4) Korn's Jonathan Davis I saw it on Stevie's Metallica Icons video, it's pretty weird. 5) Varg Vikernes I say that because he was sent to prison for killing Euronymous while he was in Mayhem and made pendants out of their singer's skull after his suicide. He's not someone I'd want to keep company with that's for sure! There are a lot of Mayhem references in this one....interesting. I had no idea he got into another band after his release. Oh wait a minute, hold up!! During another one of Stevie's videos where he put face filters on characters in iconic movies which included a Gorgoroth video he put a few on Gaahl while he was drinking what we could hopefully assume was wine...maybe it was this guy's blood? That's doubtful though, it wasn't thick enough unless they watered it down maybe? Hmmmm....something to think about. Oh wow okay so I was right after changing my mind. Nope, I don't watch too much Stevie at all!! Paahaahaa!! I can't help what comes on autoplay, I just go with it....mostly. 6) I have no idea but I'm going to take a wild stab in the dark...don't get in the way or you might get hurt! lol Just because I'm with Austin and I've never heard of them I'm going with Skinny Puppy but a second guess would be Marilyn Manson especially if they show his videos. I can handle his music if I hear it on Spotify or whatever but his vids are waaaaaaaaaayyyyy too disturbing for me. Well okay I wasn't wrong either way. 7) Car accident 8) I could be wrong but I think it's "The Black Album" "....And Justice For All" would be a close second I imagine. 9) My Chemical Romance though I don't remember why. Thanks Jared, now I know. 10) Amy Lee but again not sure if it was her own....which would be pretty ironic.
I didn't do so well the first time but after watching it a second time, I absolutely crushed it!

Austin's struggle on the first question just hurt me
Austin is an overweight pasty poser
That's because he only likes odd space metal
I genuinely thought he was being sarcastic at first... how tf did he not know!?
Same.
Johnathan Davis's mic stand was designed by H.R. Giger the same dude that invented the xenomorph design. Just a extra bit of trivia on that one.
That’s cool. I always thought it looked like that thing from Alien.
Giger also did a lot of the design on the original Dune movie.

Popularized was the right word. Coven used the horns first, but they weren't very well known, so it didn't catch on till Dio.

Angus doesn't do Devil horns with one hand. He forms devil horns with the pointer fingers of both hands held up on either side of his head.

The show in question is called "Menny The Sprinkler Man". Menny the sprinkler man himself said in an interview "I tortured so many parents throughout the years with that song, but never imagined it's gonna be used to torture Hamas terrorists" XD

Actually Angus would use the index finger of each hand to give himself "horns"
Every time one of them said Dio I said in my head “za warudo”
You guys always make my week with your content. Keep up the great work! 🤘😎🎸🤘
I think that you guys should actually do an entire episode on Gerard Way. He's the coolest person that's gone under the radar for so long.
Zakk Wylde used to have a mic stand made out of a length of chain welded stiff. It was pretty cool for being simple.
It was Dio. But Gene Simmons did it on the Love Gun cover in 1977. Well the artwork any way. He also sometimes played with his index finger and his pinky. So that’s were Genes deal came in, he just used to play with those fingers.
I missed 3. A lot were luck and educated guesses. Word up my seabiscuits
Jared's smirk when he says Iron maiden is "The Trooper"
Marilyn Manson once had a knife microphone too. idk how much he used it but i always thought it looked really cool and very different.
Gaahl did do that, but for context, the guy he tortured was an intruder. In some American states, he could have legally shot him dead.
I'm surprised I knew the answer to the first one before the options where revealed. I know like 3 Iron Maiden songs.
3:00 Yes he's called Eddie the Trooper, not even a Maiden fan, just born in 1982 so I'm involuntarily privy.
10:05 Gaahl was the guy in the Headbanger's Journey interview that famously said "..............................................................................................Satan."
Rob Zombie has a cool mic stand and Til Linderman has a knife as a mic.
Another great episode bois! Keep em coming!
Deicide was also played at Guantanamo Bay. Specifically the song Fuck Your God.
Got all correct except the last two questions that weren't metal.
Noice!!!! Got all of them right!
The Trooper is a song about the Light Brigade, and Trooper Eddie is just regular Eddie as a trooper, Eddie has been a lot of things depending on the album or even shirt. Dios Horns came from either his mother or grandmother as a way to ward off the Moloch, or to give it in the form of the evil eye. Dio said in the Dio Doc that it was like Ozzys peace signs, *change peace sign to horns* but its ME now. I believe the Viking Metal is being attributed to Bathory who WAS and technically IS black metal, but more of the first wave, along with bands like mercyful fate, the first slayer, sepultura, etc. Hans Ruedi Giger designed the mic stand, a couple of them actually, I believe Davis has 2. He designed the Xenomorph, and its other forms, Sil from Species, and a version of the Bat Mobile. My band is named after him, GIGER. That man Gaahl tortured I think broke in, and he decided, "well since you're here...". Deicide I believe was ANOTHER band used, specifically with the song Fuck Your God for muslims. Classic joke, "What has 9 arms and sucks?" "Def Leppard." I don't know who is buying the black album because everyone has a copy, I assume you get one when you're born. Bob Rock did work with Bon Jovi, but was picked by Metallica for his work with Motley Crue. Know nothing about MCR other than Gary Holt of Exodus likes them because his daughter likes them. Evanescences music makes more since considering the lyrics AND the therapy.
I love watching this channel. Keep up the good work, guys!
Actually, Rick Allen (Defe Leppard drummer) lost his arm while he was thrown out the sunroof, but his arm got stuck in the seatbelt and ripped it off.
Sweden is mostly deathmetal and Viking metal was pioneered by the first wave blackmetal band Bathory who where from Sweden
Gene Simmons doesn't do the "metal horns" 🤘🏻 but the "I love you" sign instead 🤟🏻
Bob Rock produced the Black album, along with albums by Bon Jovi, Crüe, Aerosmith, DLR, The Cult, Michael Bublé, Bryan Adams, etc
jokes on you, I play along to all of these regardless if it's in the title or not
1) Iron Maiden 2) Before you even bring up the multiple answers it was Ronnie James Dio/RJD era Black Sabbath 3) Vikings came from Norway so I'm going with that....wasn't Mayhem also from Norway? It's Google time! Yes, I was right. Wow I was wrong about the first answer though, I thought it was both. 4) Korn's Jonathan Davis I saw it on Stevie's Metallica Icons video, it's pretty weird. 5) Varg Vikernes I say that because he was sent to prison for killing Euronymous while he was in Mayhem and made pendants out of their singer's skull after his suicide. He's not someone I'd want to keep company with that's for sure! There are a lot of Mayhem references in this one....interesting. I had no idea he got into another band after his release. Oh wait a minute, hold up!! During another one of Stevie's videos where he put face filters on characters in iconic movies which included a Gorgoroth video he put a few on Gaahl while he was drinking what we could hopefully assume was wine...maybe it was this guy's blood? That's doubtful though, it wasn't thick enough unless they watered it down maybe? Hmmmm....something to think about. Oh wow okay so I was right after changing my mind. Nope, I don't watch too much Stevie at all!! Paahaahaa!! I can't help what comes on autoplay, I just go with it....mostly. 6) I have no idea but I'm going to take a wild stab in the dark...don't get in the way or you might get hurt! lol Just because I'm with Austin and I've never heard of them I'm going with Skinny Puppy but a second guess would be Marilyn Manson especially if they show his videos. I can handle his music if I hear it on Spotify or whatever but his vids are waaaaaaaaaayyyyy too disturbing for me. Well okay I wasn't wrong either way. 7) Car accident 8) I could be wrong but I think it's "The Black Album" "....And Justice For All" would be a close second I imagine. 9) My Chemical Romance though I don't remember why. Thanks Jared, now I know. 10) Amy Lee but again not sure if it was her own....which would be pretty ironic.
Dickey had me screaming at the screen when he didnt know right away. I have issues!!!!!!!
