Scar Symmetry would have recorded the video on an actual asteroid, but the camera crew wouldn't have survived so they had to just use a green screen.

Mr. Akercocke looks so confused in the video, like "Why are there all these goth strippers at my parking garage performance?"

i love the cliche “we’re all playing our instruments” in rock/metal videos. it’s right up there with the videos where they’re recording the song in the studio with headphones on as they passionately sing the lyrics

That Scar Symmetry video was hilarious, the drummer kept looking into the camera and that smile he made like: hi mom im in a music video

I dont know how but Bradly somehow makes this whole "youtube comedy guitarist" thing actually really funny, maybe it's because he's so damn British?

The main rule of black metal: if your music video is not hysterically cringworthy, it's not TRVE

Let's get real here: you could do this top 5 with just Immortal videos.

Me: Metal music videos aren't cheesy

Fun fact: The female singer in that Ancient clip is Kimberley Goss, also known as the ex-girlfriend-or-wife-or-whatever of your hero Alexi Laiho. Yes, really.

As someone who studies video editing as well as animation, cinematography and other related stuff, what were the editors thinking? Hilarious! The way they had fog and weather behind the bands but none in front of them really added to the fake look, and that Raven video looked like the editor wanted the viewers to have a seizure. Also that one drummer you mentioned looked almost like he was floating, not only no shadow but apparently no floor!
