Headbanger's Ball is...

[DriftAlongLiquidSky]

Seriously, has anyone seen the Believe in Nothing music vid? I really dont understand it. Is there some profound meaning behind it or is it just to show some explosions?

Music videos are always stupid, with the exception of Turbo Lover and Call of the Wintermoon.

And Blind Guardian's cover of Mr. Sandman!

[Kvlt Wench]

The Trollhammaren video IS fucking awesome.

TROLLHAMMAREN!

What's wrong with Gwar?

What's wrong with Kiss, The Darkness, or Slipknot for that matter? What's wrong with me? Why don't I like crappy bands that dress like clowns?

GWAR are funny and they're heavy and they're awesome and stuff! Their new album completely pwns.

I thought I'd tune in to Headbanger's Ball the other day, & I got Relentless by Strapping Young Lad followed by Low by Testament. So far so good, but then oh dear oh dear, Dying In Your Arms by Trivium.

... There's a Trollhammaren video?! Fucking YouTube me!

I watch/record "The Ball" religiously every week. I stare at the bottom left while my DVR (Tivo) is on hyper fast forward until something good comes on. Usually I'm done within 10 minutes.

That Gwar video had me going for about 1 minute because of the hot chicks. Then the "music" started to really annoy me so I did the hyper ff.

Seriously though, even though they play a shitload of whiny fag crap(metalcore), I don't hate on the Ball because they occasionally play good shit like Nevermore (Final Product is awesome), Cryptopsy, and the new Deicide stuff. Can't complain about that.

You musta been watching a different Headbanger's Ball than the rest of us.

Yeah apparently us Brits don't get the same show as the Yanks (I'm assuming you're American). I go on Blabbermouth & read about special guest hosts & new video debuts to appear next week, but nope, instead we get no hosts & no new videos, & I get to listen to 36 Crazyfists for the umpteenth time!

it seems to me that Metalcore defintely dominates the playlist.
I wish I had TIVO so I could just skip all that generic crap they
keep playing. I'm not a metalcore fan at all.
I have been trying to watch this show as consistently as possible for the last 2 months and in that time.
I have not seen a single Nevermore video (never mind a video any mention of the band at all)
I have never seen an Evergrey Video.
I have seen the SYL "Love" video .............Once.
Fear Factory? nope

WTF?????
Avenged 7X? every week
Trivium? every week
at least this week they played a Lacuna Coil video but come on now
who is picking these videos?

headbangers ball has about 1 or 2 decent bands every week but most of it is usually just shitty metalcore

I watched it for Goatwhore a couple weeks ago. I went off to the kitchen to clean, and heard some extremely shitty pop sounding garbage coming from my tv ...I checked and it was some Cradle of Filth video. I like everything until Midian and it's total crap after that ...this I knew, but OMG this video was BAD. Unless it's supposed to be a parody or something. Nah, it's still bad. uke:
