    Pretty sure the market for Liquid Death is recovering alcoholics or people who don't drink alcohol. You can get a can and people will assume it is alcohol at first glance. I get them when I go to shows because I like their marketing and the water is actually pretty good. I can support venues by not drinking booze, considering cans of Liquid Death do cost $5-$8.

      I like the marketing put into it. Metal is the focus and metalheads are the target demographic. The artwork alone isn't the only reason people like it though. The ads help a lot. The water is fine but I don't like the tea, it tastes like shit.
      They did do a metal album, punk album, and I think a pop album idr. Yadda yadda yadda, they also had ads done by the guys who made Mr. Pickles too. Like it or hate it, it's undeniably anything else but metal, albeit edgy at times.

    I honestly thought liquid death was alcoholic when they first hit the market. More recently, however, they helped me greatly when I was making soda tab chainmail for a cosplay I'm working on. Better to just drink more water than increasing my soda/beer intake. Plus the gold tabs give it character

  • @brytoncarl6203
    @brytoncarl6203 4 месяца назад +5

    Im going to stand on this hill. Liquid death is something I use a lot to replace a lot of my soda intake with. Especially during the summer. Also the cans are a lot more recyclable than the average soda or beer can. You can have your opinions on it. But I'm going to stand with it. They make a good drink. This is coming from a person who's not a fan of sparkling water.
    Also an 8 pack of of 19oz cans is roughly $13 USD at any local grocery store

    In the modern era where people don't buy albums like they used to, bands do need to diversify in their merchandise, different products and multiple revenue streams, physical copies of an album or t-shirts is not the be all and end all of products of a band, can't blame bands for this move as it's difficult for a lot of bands to make money from music sadly

    As a comic collector, the comics one is definitely up-and-down, but what I've noticed lately is that all of them are being produced by the same company, Z2 Comics. And they are MASSIVE swindlers!
    They produced the Dio one you mentioned in this video, as well as ones for Pantera, Judas Priest (which I own, and it's just okay), Amon Amarth, etc. It takes them forever to ship the item (like, we're talking 1 to 2 years here...), and this problem is a global one. At first, I gave them grace because I'm located in Australia, and I know sometimes there can still be delays nowadays. But nope, this happens to their US customers too! Complaints are strewn all over their socials, of people still waiting on their preorders. For example, the latest Amon Amarth graphic novel is still yet to ship, I believe. And pre-orders began over 2 years ago for that. It's pretty wild.
    As much as I love AA, I learned my lesson with the Priest book, and I'm glad I did.

    Liquid Death, Metalhead Box, Pull the Plug, Z2 Comics and many others are more or less just cash grabs for desperate fans. I'm sure I could get together a bigger list later on overpriced junk when I get off work.
    When you get tired of seeing every band have either their own beer/booze line, comic, dildo, hockey jerseys or flannel shirts, hot sauce, weed and vape products, you start to notice how many big bands really live up to the concept of selling out. Good for the bands and all that but it gets old. Gwar is the only band besides Kiss that did literally just about every product they could push, but most of the Gwar stuff is cool.

    The Dethwater and Dethcasket gimmicks sound like throw-away gags from Metalocalypse.. The fake metal stuff I think was meant to cash in on that flash-in-the-pan pop culture fad of people who don't listen to metal dressing like metalheads... there was a lot of that sort of thing a few years ago where people were stealing battlevests to sell on auction sites and weird stuff like that. One of the ads for a vest sold by mainstream fashion place that covered the thing in fake metal band patches inspired a bunch of pranksters in Finnish metal bands to create a series of parody RUclips music videos for those imaginary bands, the results would probably be lost on casual viewers but were absolutely hilarious for anyone who knows metal enough to catch the in-jokes!

    Somewhat disagree with the comic thing. I think when a band releases something along with an album (I.E Gwar, Bruce Dickinson), it can be really cool and give the music a bit more depth, especially when the musicians themselves are involved.
    I do agree that Holy Diver (and other legacy albums) didn't need a story though. Giving the album art your own story triumphs anything made up 30+ years later.

I enjoy having a visual reference for the characters I adore and it is quite beautiful to look at, it is not a stunt by the record label though which is the best part. Arjen the man behind everything hired the artist so the story is not even handed over to a comic book company.

    I had to do a double take on that Liquid Dea/th, as I do drink it on occassion; as it does have quite a unique taste.
    last time I bought it was 3 months ago for $11.23 an 8 pack... just checked Amazon after watching your video just now... still at $11.23 for an 8 pack. I can kind of see maybe where you're coming from... "Liquid Dea/th"... Dea/th Metal perhaps... maybe?? but, even though I do listen to DM, I never once associated it with DM.
    now, granted, I believe the image you posted is real of Amazon, but I think that maybe it was that, and was reported for price-gouging and then went back down to it's more reasonable price.
