Five Finger Death Punch - New Video Online
Five Finger Death Punch are premiering a new music video for their cover of the classic track "The House Of The Rising Sun" found in the album The Wrong Side Of Heaven And The Righteous Side Of Hell - Volume 2, released in November 2013. Enjoy it below.
These are the band's thoughts about the video: "We went out there with two helicopters, two gyrocopters, twenty something crazy cars, a big cast and an arsenal of cameras. We ended up with so much amazing material, the hardest task was to compress it down into a 3 minutes video, so we made an extended version with a long intro and we are making an even longer 'directors cut' as we speak..."

This shit came up in my Facebook newsfeed accompanied by what I assumed to be a parody article because it mentioned FFDP as the current face of metal.

Written by deadone on 25.03.2014 at 05:04 As much of an Agalloch fanboy as I am (the only band I like more is Pink Floyd), none of those are "the face of metal" either, however it would be EVEN worse to say any of the numerous 80's thrash and death metal bands that are still trying to make music are the face of metal  . I think it's actually dumb to label one band as the face of metal, but that's a discussion for a different thread.

FFDP may be one of the more popular new metal bands to emerge, but they're more like the asshole of metal, not its face.

I liked the video, especially the big Cadillac. Didn't like the song though. Didn't make me want to jam a pencil in my ears or anything but I didn't enjoy it.

Written by deadone on 25.03.2014 at 07:26 Lamb of God is actually one of my favorite bands, but Pantera I never cared for aside from a handful of tracks. Not sure what about your post that Machiavelli guy takes offense to as both bands have a similar sound rooted in groove metal. I just consider FFDP to be the worst of a bad bunch of contemporary metal bands that includes the likes of BFMV and A7X.

Wow, that song is beyond awful! I actually thought that song they did with Rob Halford was okay, but this is really lowest common denominator metal at it's most tepid and woeful.

Written by Guest on 25.03.2014 at 18:52 I don't think such a thing exists. Metal as a whole is comprised of various features that make up its face, but I don't think any one band deserves or has earned that honor, unless you stick with the old guard of Maiden and 'tallica and the likes.

It's a cover guys... The original song isn't even very good. IMO its better then the original but that isn't saying much. Seen FFDP live and they were quite good. I'm fine with them being the face of metal as long as they keep releasing good tracks like "Lift Me Up". That song was killer!

What the hell? I didn't even realise it was a cover of The Animals' song, as it sounds absolutely nothing like it whatsoever!  The original version is of course great, and a classic. I have to say though, that is probably the worst butchering of a classic song I've ever heard in my life. It's totally unrecognisable as even being the same song... I think it's even more terrible now.
