this video gave me a boner then and now. i don't think i ever blinked once when it came on. A++ VIDEO! A++ BOOBS!
i fucking love unsane. such a dirty, heavy, noisy band. they never got big or anything, despite the fact that this video was on ALL THE FUCKING TIME. for at least a couple months i couldn't watch mtv for a prolonged period of time without seeing the most painful display of goober-ass kids eating shit proper on the pavement. i was into skateboarding back then and loved every second of this video. considering the band never really got popular outside the underground, it goes to show that if a video was entertaining or ingenious enough, it could get heavy rotation.
i always remembered there being a cannibal corpse video on headbanger's ball for awhile, but i could never remember what it was. after some scouring i saw something familiar- "staring through the eyes of the dead". that being said, never been a fan. i always thought they were some sort of joke band, as i scoffed at their t-shirts in the "rockabilia" ads in the back of circus, hit parader, kerrang, metal maniacs, or any random guitar magazine i found on the bottom shelf of the periodicals rack while at the grocery store with my mom. the sad part is, this band was probably a "gateway" band for a lot of dudes who got into death metal. this song in particular is pretty bland and features the shite vocals of one chris barnes. for those of you unfamiliar, he continued his campaign of shitty sub-par metal with another band by the name of six feet under. kids who like this shit generally have long hair, oversized black t-shirts, black military pants, boots, subscribe to fangoria, refer to most things as "brutal", are overtly proficient with computers, wear those glasses with the bars across the top like kip dynamite, have little to no experience with the opposite sex, throw the "metal claw" up as a congratulatory gesture, smell bad, suck in general, etc., etc.
this video was fairly popular at the time. to be honest, i dont know shit else about this band, nor will i claim to. i remember the controversy among my peers regarding whether or not they were saying "humping" or "pumping" on your stereo. listening back, it definitely sounds like "humping". the video itself was mildly amusing. its one of those things where you say to yourself, "wow, this would probably be more enjoyable if i were on drugs". just so happens, i myself spent the second half of the decade high or in the pursuit of being so. a word of caution- if you make the decision to watch this video there's a high probability that you'll be singing the shit in your head for at least the next 72 hours. you've been warned.
