Finally a Nu metal video
Never done one of those before
The anticipation was killing us
😂
😅😅😊😊
Nu metal MBA
Ill Nino is actually legit. Their choruses were so catchy
We were invited to Soil’s CD release party which was at House Of Blues in Orlando. We honestly didn’t know who they were, but the manager of my best friends’ band invited us. I had to have my roommate drive my car home because I was trashed. We lived in Jacksonville and my only request was for him to stop at the Denny’s that was in St. Augustine right off I95. We got home around 3am and at some point, I woke up and drove to my mom’s house and fell asleep on her couch. I was woken up early in the morning to my mom screaming “we are under attack!!” That morning was 9/11/2001.
Damn, reading this was quite the ride haha I did not expect that ending 😅
Woah
🥶
That's a twist ending if I've ever seen one!
Yeah, I guess the part about my roommate driving my car wasn’t really explained. Basically I was so drunk, I couldn’t drive the 2 hours back to Jacksonville, so he drove. At some point during my drunken sleep, I woke up and drove to my mom’s house and slept on her couch. There wasn’t a big window of time between when we got home and me being woken up by my mom. So I must’ve done it pretty quickly after getting home. The decision to drive was obviously a mistake, but for some reason, I guess I felt I needed to be at my mom’s house?!?🤷🏻♂️ My roommate was the drummer for my friends’ band. They were the biggest local band in Jacksonville in the late 90’s / early 2000’s. So much so that Fred Durst had them blackballed from the industry and we had many fights with Fred’s friends and ours. To the point one of Fred’s friends shot up my buddy’s house one night when we were having a party
If you notice, the drummer for Adema leans all the way back and looks straight up in the air when he plays a snare fill EXACTLY LIKE DAVID SILVERIA FROM KORN. It's impossible to unnotice, and it drives me crazy.
The bassist reminds me of a Great Value Brand Fieldy
The drummer used to be in Videodrone, which was signed to Korn's label and also from Bakersfield.
lol these are probably details only drummers will notice (not my case)
My old band opened for Adema somewhere around 2011 at a tiny shit hole venue in the middle of nowhere Idaho. Johnathan Davis's brother wasn't there so the guitarist was handling all the vocals. They were actually a nice bunch of guys.
Was it in Jerome, Idaho? Tiny little town of 10,000 people, and they were getting all the metal shows for a little while there. Had to drive two hours from Boise into the middle of nowhere to see Black Dahlia Murder, Aborted, Dying Fetus, etc, lol.
what's the name of your old band if u don't mind me asking
@@miramarto a crappy Nu Metal band playing with Death metal/extreme metal bands?! Doubtful lol
If you're in a nu metal band and you're the guitarist, you can do the "bald except for that spiky green hair only coming off the front of your head" then you have to play guitar while looking around like you're hearing voices, like you're so twisted and craaazy.
What is Tripp Eisen doin these days?
The union underground guitarist and meegs rascon basically
The big chin beard and bald
@@JottiKarottiprison hopefully
You also have to stare up at the ceiling...
Dude the dirtbike tank top had me rolling 😂
I lost it when he got pushed away from the men’s bathroom and someone commented “*points at sign* no dirt bike jerseys allowed”
I had a shirt like that. Yes, my mom got it on sale! 😢
In regards to you saying a guy called his girlfriend his little halo.
In the good ol nu metal days I called a girl I was seeing “my butterfly” as in the Crazy Town tune 🤦♂️
Even worse that she used to sign off her texts to me with her name as butterfly at the end 😂
Good times though
True romance
tfw "I should call her"
This is something you should've took to the grave with you!! 😂
@@andydhillon1977 you’re probably right haha. I guess I’m comfortable enough with my sexuality to admit something as gay as that 😂
Will Stabbing Westward ever be discussed?
Underrated band. They were fantastic live.
great band.
Good point,what do I have to do?
@@whoami-eb7cqlol i got it 😂
Along with the huge catalog of KMFDM.
American Head Charges first effort was quite a great record in my opinion. They were one of my favorite bands growing up. The War of Art still sounds solid and their sophormore effort was also solid in my opinion. Great band live as well. Ill Nino's first three albums were also favorites of mine.
Yeah this is the second time Finn has seen a few seconds of them and both times were for this same song. I really think if he heard A Violent Reaction or All Wrapped Up he’d realise there’s some quality stuff there
I used to play in a band in the same scene with American Head Charge. Their late bass player Chad Hanks was cool as hell and he was really supportive of us even though we were runts still in high school. I realize now how insane some of those shows used to be lol. American Head Charge was a phenomenal live band and probably the most underrated of the nu metal genre. They burned bright and fast, but Rick Rubin even took notice of their magic and produced their album.
I actually loved AHC. They were so much fun live. Thought they were going to be the next slipknot.
Thank you! That song specifically was revolutionary to me back then.
I am here for American head charge all day, there will be no slander to this great band!!!!
The War Of Art by American Head Charge is possibly the greatest nu metal album ever made. Sucks that the singer Cameron can't stay out of trouble. Obviously Chad's death is sad and tough, but it would've been cool to see them re-form in some way during this nu metal nostalgia boom.
They did come back a couple years ago for an album, the vocals were still good but the music overall sucked ass.
The War of Art is not on Spotify anymore for some reason..
I wouldn't even call them nu-metal.. more like alternative metal and you clearly can hear the Faith No More influences not only ín the vocals but the music too.. not to mention, compared to most nu-metal bands their sound was way heavier, more complex and so on
@@wes8723 Great points there!
@@Veganerd_ I was wondering why Seamless wasn’t playing in my auto cue every 5 minutes for a while now. Makes a lot of sense.
I will not tolerate the American Head Charge slander
Agreed, their first album was legit
@@rorz999 And honestly, their second (? "The Feeding") album was pretty good too. At least, it had a few songs that were proper bangers at the time.
I grew up near them. Fan for life of the first 2 albums. Went to so many shows! First keyboard player lived on our street and gave us their demo.
Are you going to have A Violent Reaction?
And he played the keytar!!!! Anybody can play the piano but it takes a real man to play the keytar.
That AHC song was a banger. I'm bummed you ended it before the bridge where the song gets heavier.
You should really do an episode on American Head Charge as their history is very very strange including several member deaths, lineup changes, grand theft, etc.
100% agree. Great band, mental history!
Didn't Finn rate them an e or f
@@DanzGmod565 Yeah I think so...
Who else died besides Chad hanks and the guitarist?
@@lukelyall5879 I think just those two - Brian Ottoson was the guitarist who died. They had an absolute ton of members coming and going though.
Adema did a song for Mortal Kombat: Deadly Alliance that I enjoyed saving Earthrealm to.
I also liked Co-Dependent, mostly because it was on the NHL 2004 soundtrack.
Immortal
Immortal was one of the first metal songs I ever listened to because of that game
Idc what ppl say, Adema with Mark was 🔥
(btw there's a Linkin Park cameo at the end of the video)
Interesting… did Linkin Park know about it, too?
@@austintrousdale2397 didn't you see Chester Bennington and Joe Hahn at the end of the video?
I saw Ill Niño live with Soulfly at Puerto Rico around 2004, it was an awesome show. The first Moshpit I ever saw was there.
Ill Niño killed and so did Soulfly. I was with my Dad, it will forever be in my memory. That was my first metal show.
Soulfly is amazing
@@lukelyall5879 they put on a hell of a show.
Now, I’m a drummer and seeing both Dave Chavarri (Ill Niño) and Roy Mayorga (that year he was the drummer for Soulfly way before joining Stone Sour) was inspiring and awesome.
Also a hell of a Pit
Where is my best whale tail music videos from the 2000s Finn ??? Where ???
When Finn starts up a new song, shivers and cringes for a moment, and then lets out the "uhhh.. Vocals are rough" - I could listen to that shit all day lmfao
Soil sound like if Pantera and Creed had a baby LMAO
That sounds accurate
Now I wish I would have seen them even more
Fuck, your right...I'm never going to un-hear this 😅😅😬😅
It's like a guy said I want to look like Dane Cook but sound like Jonathan Davis.
Spot on! Also, I got to meet both Adema and Dane Cook in the same week in 2003 😂..
@@rig-zag Congrats man. For 2003 that sounds like quite the week.
Nailed that one
i remember American Head Charger on tour with SOAD, Rammstein and Slipknot. The keyboards was thrashing his keyboard, while holding down 1 key. He went so hard. Every song, killed it.
Hahaha Hahn from Linkin Park, Craig Jones of Slipknot and the dude from Underoath come to mind
"Just So You Know" by AHC is one if not my favorite Nu Metal song of all time, it has all the elements I love about the genre
Exactly! Same here! It might be one of my favorite songs of all time still.
me in 2010: made a shity simple cover art for Ill Nino Demos in Photoshop
me in 2024: watch on this cover art in this video
HOLY SHIT!
I live in Germany and H-Blockx actually went to high school about 5 miles from where I live.
Their 1994 debut album "Time to Move" is actually surprisingly close to later nu metal releases, even though four regular German guys wanting to be Beastie Boys on their hit single "Risin' High" from that record is exactly as awful as it sounds.
They are still quite engaged in the local community here though.
I mildly liked "How Do You Feel" (VIVA played it all the time) and I'm flabbergasted that this is the same band
@@hrotha Almost completely forgot about that one. ;)
I'm actually surprised that Finn didn't pick up on the fact that they were German because pretty much all the stereotypes are there.
haha yeah i remember seeing them 94 or 95 on Viva and thinking to myself: "Wow this sucks" ... Aber abgesehen davon, dass die Jungs nie meinen persönlichen Geschmack getroffen haben, scheinen sie echt sympathische Gestalten zu sein.
I like Fly and Take Me Home by H BLockx
"Fly eyes" was actually not a bad album especially considering there was Marco Minneman on drums
Ahhhh I LOVE/LOVED ILL NIÑO!!!!!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Thank you for picking one of their best songs!!
I saw Adema with Hoobastank, Pressure 4-5, Sum 41, Blink 182 and 311 in Cleveland for a Not So Silent Night Tour. Adema had a small following in 2002ish, and I had no idea they were still releasing music.
Their last album came out in 2005 but they dropped a song in 2021 and 2022 so maybe there’s a comeback album on the way?
Ryan from Orgy/Julian-K is singing for Adema now. He's been touring with them for awhile now.
@@DrProfessorMDRyan just left in February. Time for Chavez to rejoin for the 4th time
@@markstultz383 oh damn, didn't realize.
Their song 'Everyone' on the Resident Evil 2002 soundtrack was a real banger, unfortunately they lost their frontman several times over apparently so that sux...
My grandma and I would listen to SOiL before she died. She would always call me her little halo while she spit her dip in my mouth
Had me in the first half
Depending on where this person is from they still have me. Gram gets wild with the snuff in some cultures
Pics?
Ill Nino are awesome for balancing clean sections with heavier ones 👌
I still jam that Ill Niño album, Confession, every so often. Both that and their debut album, Revolution Revolución, are great underrated nu-metal albums. Plus Cristian Machado is an incredible vocalist and has never gotten the credit he deserves.
Also, in regards to Soil, vocalist Ryan McCombs went on to be Drowning Pool's vocalist for many years. I actually got to see them live twice when he was in the band. Dude was great at getting the crowd going.
American Head Charge was underrated as far as nu metal goes and Just You Know is a great song.
When girls wore low rise Britney Spears denim and thong song esque visible thong straps
...then you know it's 1999 or early 00s.
Good ol' whale tale.
"Mom i want to listen to Korn"
"We have Korn at home"
**Korn at home - Adema**
💀
The Freddy vs. Jason soundtrack, featuring that Ill Niño song, is pretty fuckin' great. I know you're not a fan of Sevendust, but it even features (what I believe is) their best song: "Leech".
Gotta collect my thots for my upcoming nu metal music video, featuring Fred Durst’s cousin’s college roommate’s best friend as lead DJ.
Back up dj😂
lead dj lol!
Ill Nino killing it in the credits for Freddy vs Jason lol
Skindred - nobody . better not be here
Why would that masterpiece be here?
I remember racing through the streets at night with the cops chasing me and jamming out to this song in Need for Speed Underground 2
@@MikeHoncho610 lol I just wouldn't put it past fin
@@skree_fpv436 right lol
@@MikeHoncho610got to disagree, that song is hot garbage and skindred are also high garbage
American Head Charge 😍
American Head Charge is amazing what are you talking about? That entire album is perfect from start to finish.
That flame decal Les Paul looks like a fucking guitar hero controller hahaha
I actually really like the first American Head Charge album. Funny enough, the dude from Snuffed On Sight when he was a kid lived with these dudes for some reason. He said they were a bunch of drug addicts, so the rehab comment checks out.
AHC's song is actually pretty cool and musical
the feeding and war of art by ahc are actually surprisingly amazing
100% agree.
Every song shown in this video is a certified banger and 1000x better than the music we have today. Don't @ me
Bruh
Anybody ever heard of some russian band called Flymore? They were the band that got the closest to Korn's sound and they sounded pretty good but came late to the party in like 2007.
There were actually a big bunch of Russian band that sounded like a bad version of Korn :)
@@peterosipov400 the band I mentioned had some songs that were even better than Korn's at that time. They kinda had a small following in like 2008 to 2009 but they dissapeared completely. Thinking about that band sometimes makes me feel kinda nostalgic, they just were gone overnight like the Nu Metal era was too... check out the song Insane by them.
Adam Head is another one.
There's 'late', and then there's *late* .
American Head Charge was a local band for me. A part of me always got love for them lol
I worked with the American Head Charge drummer (Chris) at a food co-op in 2017. Nice guy, but he’s definitely been through the wringer. I told him I snuck into their CD release party in 2001. He enjoyed hearing that.
Here in the Netherlands we had a nu metal band with the most amazing name, Dreadlock Pussy...
Their video for Choke is the prime example of what a nu metal carbon copy xeroxed a thousand times looks like.
"This is a joke" flashing on tge screen made me lol.
disagree with AHC. For me they are criminally underrated
Absolutely.
Listen to American Head Charges first studio album, i wouldn't lump them into nu metal the same way you wouldn't lump in alice in chains into grunge..... The art of War is a solid listen🤘😎🤘
Soil's vocalist, Ryan McCombs, was actually the 3rd vocalist in Drowning Pool. He was on the 3 albums from 2008 - 2010 & if I'm not mistaken he rather recently rejoined the the band to.
I liked the song Halo by Soil....but then i noticed in the sound this high pitched sound like a dissonance tune in the chorus....and i cannot not hear it and i hate it lol
I thought an ice cream truck was passing by when I heard it
@@erickghoul174 that is it exactly I was watching on TV and kept looking around for the sound and thought it was a ice cream truck outside to lol
Personally I like American Head Charge but to each their own
Hearing Soil was a blast from the past because that song was in a legendary old school WoW PvP video of an enhancement shaman. Core memory unlocked
I looked up American Head Charge on wikipedia and this is the first paragraph:
American Head Charge was a nu metal band from Minneapolis, Minnesota. The band has earned two nominations at the Kerrang! Awards.
Someone from the band edited this for sure 😂
If wiki did the article they would say “rock” or “heavy metal” instead of nu metal
Nice!😂
AHC is awesome. That songs a banger! I saw them in Corpus Christi sometime around 2003 or 2004
Check out song H Blockx did as theme song for Stone Cold Steve Austin “Hell yeah” … man 😂
Used to snowboard to Ill Nino. Those were good days.
That American Head Charge album is my favourite nu metal album. Can't believe you said that song sucks!
Definitely expected to see The Zoo by Psycore in this video though. Now that is a nu metal song that sucked big time!
YeH war of art was actually amazing...
I agree. The follow up album “The feeding” is equally as good imo.
American Head Charge's The War of Art is one of the Best nu metal albums ever made 🖤
We can definitely see the early stages of bad nu metal’s evolution into butt rock in this video
American Head Charge were champions!!! War of Art is a cracking album
The singer from Soil left and joined Drowning Pool (the Let the Bodies hit the Floor band) in the late 2000's, singing on 2 albums before leaving to go back to Soil in the 2010's. but recently he rejoined them too so now he fronts both bands
Pretty sure Clown from Slipknot directed that American Head Charge video. Take that CRT issue up with him. 😂
Clown discovered AHC.
@@chrisg9573 Right place, right time
I was patiently waiting for you to mention my band Motograter. We pretty much sucked.
Nah that debut had some bangers and good drum production, at least Down was cool.
@@Jorgetime I was just joking. I like every song we put out.
That Ill Nino song was pretty solid despite the cheesy video.
I have to say I loved Adema 'the days that I was young' (thanks Mortal Kombat: Deadly Alliance) but now hmm not so much. I can't take those lyrics seriously but can't stop listening to them either.
I had a fever dream memory of part of a song for the better part of a year. Coulnd remember the band or enough of thr song to find it. This video started and i immediately knew it was h-blockx. That was deiving me nuts
How about Powerman 5000?
Matrix style warehouse of guitars for a nu metal guitarist. Nothing more early 2000's than that.
Guitars. Lots of guitars.
Ill Niño - Revolution Revolución was such a sick album, dude had a fucking gnarly scream
Also, I'll forever go to bat for American Head Charge's The War Of Art, honestly one of the best albums to come out of the whole nu metal era, A Violent Reaction and Seamless are absolute banger tracks
I've tolerated you dissing my music.
I've tolerated you dissing the whole continent of Europe.
BUT I WILL NOT tolerate you dissing my man bun in 2024!
Ill Nino always reminded me of a much much better version of POD.
I saw ill Nino last year, still pretty good. I almost saw soil a week ago. American head charge is fun live. Saw them with hed pe and mushroomhead. Hed to head tour.
8:22 I used to have that same Danelectro bass. Zero sustain. I hated it. I wonder if that was his main, or just used for the video.
To be fair, I think HBlockx is German
They are, they're from Münster. They were quite popular in Germany in the 90s and 00s. Their singer even became quite a prominent figure on television and even became one of the jurors in The Voice of Germany.
***PROPERTY TAXES PAID***
The fact that you have to type out “this is a joke” while you’re telling an obvious sarcastic joke makes me really miss the 2000’s 😂
Thank you for showing Ill nino some love. A very underrated and kickass band. I heard this song way back as a kid when I first watched Freddy vs. Jason. Then about 2018 was when I started hearing more songs to the point where I heard their first two major records, and I said "this band kicks ass! I can't believe I didn't hear more of their music sooner!"
On my commute home and I listened to Halo for the first time in years. I had such a good time that i nearly crashed my car.
REAL EYES, RELIZE, REAL LIES.
*BARS*
That was actually a P.O.D song title 😂
Good evening Finn,
I know it’s only been 24 hours since this was broadcasted, but I was just wondering if maybe we could possibly get another one of these “Nu-metal” segments soon?
I love watching these broadcasts with my grandchildren, particularly the ones that include “Fred Durst” of the band Limp Bizkit (not biscuit). He’s a handsome kid with that so-called, swagger.
Please let me know what the plan is. I’ll be waiting patiently. Hope this finds you well, Finn.
Respectfully,
-Bob Jenks
Hi Bob-
Thank you for watching! Please tell your grandson there will be more “nu-metal” soon!
Warm regards,
Finn
I hung out w Adema when they went on tour with Spineshank. It got weird bc the lead singer of Adema started crying bc I was wearing a Misfits fiend t-shirt and he said I looked like and reminded him of his little brother. He started getting all teary eyed and introduced around before Johnny Santos from Spineshank saved us.
WHY do you keep lumping Taproot in with buttrock?? lol they were firmly in numetal territory
They sound like breaking Benjamin and rockfeednet calls them “hard rock”
Come on....H-blocks rule! And American Head Charge, even more!
That H-Blockx vocal line of OHH O OHH he totally bit from Mike Patton in the Judgement Night soundtrack song with Boo yah Tribe - Another Body Murdered , except much worse but its obvious he was trying to copy it .
Don't get me wrong but American Head Charge - The War of Art is one hell of an nu-metal album.. if I'm not mistaken, it was produced by Rick Rubin. Also Ill Nino's debut album Revolution/Revolucion is heavy as fuck.. both albums are two of the best of that era.
Speaking about the Adema video, I used to work in Phoenix in the early 2000's and we could always tell someone was from California, because they were a walking fashion show, like that band looks and we were all rolling our eyes
Big Sausage Pizza reference 🤣
H-Blockx - hell yeah they took their name from something really dark in Irish history, like as in a tribute to Bobby Sands. And they're German too. Good on 'em. I love them now too.
Glad to see Ill Niño getting some love. The percussion is definitely something I love as it has that Latin feel to it and lyrically their shit is dope.
I am genuinely offended he did not mention powerman5000.
VFor a hot minute recently, Ryan Shuck from Orgy/Relient K was Adema's vocalist. Dude slayed.
For a while in 2002, I was a member of SOiL's Street team, and got to meet the band at Ozzfest that year.
That H Block video was truly one of the most fascinating things I've ever seen.
One of my favourite memories is My 1988 Ford Festiva, Discman in the centre console, fluffy computer speakers on the dashboard that flew around every corner I took, listening to throwdown haymaker for one year straight
Love these Nu metal videos.
Grew up with all that, life seemed so much more simpler and yet exciting back then.
Adema are also unbelievably underrated, their albums were pretty decent
I was at a Meshuggah show and had to use the bathroom. I was confused as to why the line to the men's room was so long and the women's was non-existent. That's when I remembered that women don't listen to Meshuggah.
Says you.
@@jennytulwarts993 yes, I did say that
No idea about the Ill Nino / Merauder link, I will have to track down that early Jorge stuff.
Now I know they were kinda on the edge of the nu metal biz, that bizarrely awful 3rd Merauder record make a little more sense.
I remember watching American Head Charge live at Ozzfest. Decent band.
Very much looking forward to this! 😊Finn's Nu Metal videos are never dull! Always 💯 10/10
