ohhhhhhhh 🥰☺️🙂↕️🙂↕️🙂↕️ you had fun!! i was scared you wouldn’t have fun 🙂↕️🙂↕️🙂↕️ paragraph of info incoming:
you being impressed by chris doing the cleans as well as the screams brought me back. i actually didn’t know for years that other bands had multiple singers cause i was so used to chris doing it all
featured artists of note: yes Dani Filth is from Cradle of Filth, which is why that song sounded so black metal. Maria Brink is the lead singer of In This Moment, probably the most famous female-fronted metal band of all time. Tim Skold used to be Marilyn Manson’s guitarist around the time he was on MIW’s song
You’re absolutely correct about the Reincarnate album sounding like something that would be released now instead of in 2014. It was actually an extremely hated album when they released it because it was “too different”. Now, it’s considered their greatest album of all time. Truly ahead of its time.
lmao the famous goth pants you’re referring to are called Tripp Pants
fun fact: New Years Day (the first mv band in the playlist that wasn’t MIW) are actually people i know personally! they’re a local band to my home town and their bass guitarist brandon was my guitar teacher for several years even while they were on tour
MIW definitely make their music with the live show in mind. it almost feels unfair to do a “dive” without any legit concert footage because that is where they shine the brightest. “halloween metal” bands became a thing because of motionless in white and their tour aesthetic which is always based around specific horror movies or halloween in general
