I genuinely appreciate that you used trained cheerleaders for the video. Most artists would have skipped past that. As a dancer myself, I love seeing how much you truly care about the dancers you are using in videos and on stage. You always give them credit which make my heart warm as most people would just hire and forget about them. Love you Ash!
i can honestly say this is my favourite ashnikko music video EVER!!! the choreography, the woods, the cultish vibes?! absolute perfection! also ash looks STUNNING!
I think this is the best video she's done, it has the most cohesive vision despite such an odd variety of visual inspirations. I think a lot of her past videos kind of came off as uncluttered and unfocused, like she really needed a good director to help pull her through inane visuals. Here she's got tons of charisma and you can tell that she's grown as a performer and the visuals all come together in a very intentional way, someone had a fucking vision that they pitched for the video concept and they fucking delivered. I hope she sticks with this creative team because they mesh with her so well.
Ash has some of the most unique styles when it comes to her videos. Being super creative and aesthetically pleasing but also creepy/unnerving or surreal and experimental. I love them so much.
@@persephone2345 agreed lol but Ashnikko was saying that for last year. Apparently she was trying to write one but was super busy and didn't like how it was turning and didn't want to release bad music so she didn't drop one. Hoping for one this year! 🙌🙏
ashnikko is one of the most talented and unique artists of now & this nymph cheerleader looks AMAZING AS HELL!!! the visuals, the Midsommar folktales vibes, the song itself--such perfection
@@henshin_illusions they literally have such an amazing production team to pull this off (also hats off to the hair/makeup and costume design team too)
@@QuickDeath02 its a reference to the fact ashnikko is a genderfluid person. she is expressing her gender-fluidity through the abstract concept of "bees". not only that but affirming she is not a girl, but a swarm of bees, fits with the song as she says it as a threat - she will swarm this bottomfeeder to death
@@yesitsmeyesitsmeyesitsme it's the nonbinary meme for they/them being plural so one person can't use but the person is actually a swarm of bees or the one of "my dad had a hard time with they/them so I told him to pretend I'm a swarm of bees" lol the birth of non-bee-nary people I love that ash can now embrace their gender fluidity and love for women so openly
Love the homage to The Crucible and Salem Witch Trials and the fact she used real life cheerleaders is amazing. She is consistent in her awesomeness. She is a King.
The folklore aesthetic alongside w the cheerleaders remarking cheerleaders when they’re spinning in the air and dancing really fits so well. The creativity for everything in this is too perfect okg
This is my favorite music video by them so far, the witchy midsommer/witch trials vibes the shot of ash being burned at the stake is amazing the choreo is amazing I love everything
@Givebackthescarf ahhh you're one of those🤣 lt isn't. She goes by she also. The way the comment is written it is NOT proper grammar, but good job trying to make yourself sound smart. You, in fact, made yourself sound even more dumb.
Did not see that ending coming! The visuals for this album are absolutely insane, you can see all the hard work and dedication that it took to bring this world to life. So excited for the rest of the album to be released ♥️
I think this captures the teenage girl internal experience extremely well. The almost cult like bond that can be formed in girl groups especially where trust is needed while there is still a competition to be the best or most beautiful (like in cheer) is so fasinating!!
@@Givebackthescarfyou’re right, Ashnikko, a genderfluid person wrote that. Though girls and woman could write that as well. Imagine believing only some genders can write about darker, violent themes smh.
All of the music videos from this album have had ties to each other in pairs- this and Possession of A Weapon share the ring of dancers and runic symbolism, and the ending/beginning visuals make it seem like Cheerleader's video leads into this one. Similarly, the large creature she's fighting in Weedkiller looks a lot like one of the ones from the end of Worms. I wonder if they will bridge into each other with future videos. It seems like she's hoping to have a full coherent album video/storyline by the end of the singles releases?
In worms is the part where she makes her way to fight the weed killer and his army, you can even see "enemy identified: Weedkiller" on her goggles. Weed killer is where the troupes killed each other and only ash and the weed killer is left.
Everytime i'm like "yes i have an idea for how to dress for the concert" you release a new music video with an aesthetic i love even more, and i'm sent back into the spiral of planning
They just keep getting better. This album has really gotten me excited and the only album that's done that is demidevil the first vinyl to my collection and now another awesome to start growing my collection with.
Ashnikko's videos are absolutely amazing and add extra depth and meaning to the song, making each song memorable. Cant wait to hear the new album when it comes out!
Melanie is the most self aware, creative, unique person in this world. All of her songs are so beautiful and the meanings behind them are so important and powerful. She deserves so much love and recognition🩷
GENIUS!!!! 🖤🔥📣 absolutely amazing!!! Visuals, the movements!!! New favorite song!!! Thank you for always being your authentic self. You are truly inspiring and powerful!! Much love & light to you & your team!!! 🖤🖤🔥✨️
I also love how listening to Ash is like being high without drugs, her music videos are so cool looking and pleasing or just creepy and beautiful in a spooky way. Love how this gives cult vibes too lol
I am a 34 year old straight white male who primarily listens to hardcore punk and "sell drugs shoot people" rap and this shit fucking slaps like my stepdad used too
the amount of talent, thought, work, effort, cinematography, skill, artistry, creativity, style, swag, badassery, & overall slay of this cannot be topped. ashnikko is an icon, a legend, & she is the moment.
It's giving Blair Witch Project, Chilling Adventures of Sabrina, Charmed, Salem witch hunts, Walpurgis Night and so much more. The work and creativity that went into this video is phenomenal!!!! Love it!
It’s so cool to see an artist who clearly isn’t modeling their image after someone else. This babe is completely genuine and I think it’s really neat 😊
Dayummm girl!! I've been watching you for a while, tho a lot of the songs were too "young" for me lol, I'm 36. But your talent has been obvious & undeniable. I feel like you've really grown, like crazy!! Fully enjoying what you're putting out now. Fkn mind blowing stuff! The artistry is just wow. This is amazing!!!!!
I genuinely appreciate that you used trained cheerleaders for the video. Most artists would have skipped past that. As a dancer myself, I love seeing how much you truly care about the dancers you are using in videos and on stage. You always give them credit which make my heart warm as most people would just hire and forget about them. Love you Ash!
unlike lizzo 😍✨
I agree and while I’m retired from dancing anymore than for fun I still love her for that too. 💙
Be cool if they turned this music video into a new Bring It On Movie🤔
Same. It added another level of appreciation from me.
the cheer smiles and dead eyes are PERFECT
i can honestly say this is my favourite ashnikko music video EVER!!! the choreography, the woods, the cultish vibes?! absolute perfection! also ash looks STUNNING!

100% agree with both of you
I agree
Amazing aesthetic all around🌀💙💠
it gives midsommar vibes
WHY IS THE CHOREOGRAPHY SO GOOD. The girls soaring in the air as Ashnikko and the rest of the dancers perform in the front is just TOO MUCH.
Ash has some of the most unique styles when it comes to her videos. Being super creative and aesthetically pleasing but also creepy/unnerving or surreal and experimental. I love them so much.
Mhm!💯✨
Mid Sommar // Occult - ✨inspitration ✨
She is the queen of Halloween 😊
MY GOD, THE CHOREOGRAPHY, THE EFFECTS AND THE ENVIRONMENT????? YOU ONLY SLAYED! 😭💘💘
Like Ashnikko said… “Can we pretend cheerleader is Halloweenie from las year?”
Answer: Yes. Yes we can 🙌
@@byronlopez2189I love Cheerleader!! But I'm sorry but no I need me a halloweenie 😢

Oh my god it does give midsommar vibes, fantastic movie and fantastic choreo on this music vid
Also give me Blair witch vibes

Okay but now we need a full performance and cheerleading routine for this song. Absolutely love this song and the MV.
i was thinking that exact same thing!!!!!
i love the line "I'm not a girl, I'm a swarm of bees.".
the dark lipstick at the end looks great.
Would that be a Beelzebub reference?
@@QuickDeath02 its a reference to the fact ashnikko is a genderfluid person. she is expressing her gender-fluidity through the abstract concept of "bees". not only that but affirming she is not a girl, but a swarm of bees, fits with the song as she says it as a threat - she will swarm this bottomfeeder to death

Or should I say… slumber party

Pom Pom squad?
Not me also calling it pom pom squad cuz I forgot the word cheerleaders

@ImaDriveThroughTheBurgerKing disgusting rat
I see a lot of The VVitch inspiration
"IM NOT A GIRL IM A SWARM OF BEES" mood
Can we just take a moment to appreciate the inspirations in this? It's literally perfect

All her songs from this era are her best songs, this album is ridiculous
FR BRO THIS SONG SLAPS

The choreography at 1:31 looks like so much fun
This girl really surprises me all the time. She has such a different song atmosphere.. It's really hard not to admire her mind and effort..
shes not a girl, shes a swarm of bees

@Givebackthescarf
"Women talking about violence WHAT?!"
@@Givebackthescarf consider listening to “Maggots” by Ashnikko. It could be enlightening for you.
@@Givebackthescarfhave you ever met a woman
The national anthem for self diagnosed mental illness girls who want to be edgy
Ashnikko, Melanie Martínez and Doja Cat are the moment.
lit my fav 3 artists 😭
Maybe not dojo cuz shes a neo nze but definitely
I feel you!!! Especially the Melanie Martinez part!!

start tweeting Matpat to do the full hour-long rundown ;)

Essa mulher é louca, adoro ela
1:04 im not sure if im imagining it but they definitely edited the cheerleaders faces and its SENDING me
Ash is the only one with a normal face lol
Nah they totally were edited

You are a divine forest witch! The embodiment of a real female force of nature, it's amazing! New level!
This woman can dance!!
It’s like Midsommar and the Blair Witch Project rolled into one video, love it!!!!
