Avatar - Schlacht Lyrics






Under the butcher's knife
Life is more present than ever
A life that fades away
Before I die I'll dream
One dream that'll last me forever
Forever dead in sleep
The green beneath the waves, first time seen
By drowning

How could you know?
How could you know this was living?
Nobody told
Nobody told you about living
Now you're leaving...
DIE!

Like mother Nature rules
Survival of the filthiest
The maggots make the rules
The highest of humans,
Still just the lowest of life
The rulers in the dirt
Look at the world from the eyes of a pig

We all deserve to die!
We all deserve to die!!
We all deserve to die!!!
WE ALL DESERVE TO DIE!!!!

Cannibalism, cannibalism
Cannibalism, cannibalism
Cannibalism, cannibalism
Cannibalism when a swine eats a pig

This is what it'll always come down to
Don't you see what you're all doing?
Don't you feel?
Slaughtering just to be slaughtered and tamed by yourselves
You're just meat!
The quality of your flesh measures your life span
WE ALL DESERVE TO DIE!!!!

How could you know?
How could you know this was living?
Nobody told
Nobody told you about living
Now you're leaving...
DIE!

How could you know?
How could you know this was living?
Nobody told
Nobody told you about living
Now you're leaving...
DIE!

  7. a.... a....

    this is the AVATAR I USE TO LOVE

  8. A.... L....

    Watch it again and again just because of Johannes in white robe. Amazing!

  9. J.... C....

    This is the only band in history to become better by being less heavy.

  10. N.... S....

    que paso avatar? esto no se compara a lo que hacen ahora clw

  11. R.... ....

    His high screams kind of sound like Ben from Billy Talent here.

  12. C.... H....

    Khe verga!!!

  13. K.... H....

    Much love from Canada hope you guys can come here some day

  14. K.... 1....

    I love the rage of John's drumming. He's playing as if fighting for life. I love the way he lifts his left arm. The whole band is awesome..

  15. j.... ....

    idk why everyone is shitting on his vocals. I legit like them. Am I the only one? 😂

  16. o.... ....

    They are so funny here... Almost cute)))

  17. D.... D....

    Wow!.....They used to have a different genre. No wonder why Johannes has a really good singing voice and vocal range--he's used to screaming and growling..haha!!

  18. e.... t....

    Old avatar best music

  19. R.... V....

    I prefer them now

  20. K.... L....

    Emo Fetus johannes oh my lord

  22. K.... ....

    Sebastian Bach does death metal?

  23. c.... m....

    I think it isn't Johannes singing to be completely honest. The scream singing is different! :0

    c.... m....

    carena macomber He used different techniques and he always sang with falsetto

  24. P.... G....

    And they still are. 😍
    Johannes is just so yummy. 😄

    6.... ....

    Get a room

  27. J.... C....

    Avatar didnt have nothing. With their imagery and style and creativity. They went from trash to a blast. They will be on the top

  28. B.... 9....

    I wouldn't have guest this was Avatar. They are way better today. I had to give this a thumbs down. Sorry my babies.

  29. G.... S....

    La banda se llamaba en ese entonces Lost Souls 😒

  30. R.... D....

    Bad ass!!!

  31. B.... F....

    Where`s the fucking clown :D :D

  32. c.... m....

    Thank them for replacing the other guitarist with Tim.

    c.... m....

    He's called Simon Andersson. He was great too, and I prefer him, even if Tim is always good.

  33. R.... B....

    I still can't believe Johannes did the vocals on the self titled album there's so many techniques he abandoned

  34. C.... E....

    Wow. This. Evolution. (꒪⌓꒪)

  35. F.... T....

    This ia far better than their new shiet rn. Anything after black waltz is complete garbage

    F.... T....

    Get your ears checked

  36. P.... ....

    LOL Its Avatar?

  37. E.... A....

    Böyle şeyler dinleyince götü başı dağıtası geken bi tek ben miyim

  38. D.... C....

    Love how the band has evolved. Curious about AVATAR Country coming out in January 2018. WE ARE AVATAR!

  39. T.... ....

    they really the same guys who did hail the apocalypse? god damn 7 years can make a difference

  40. M.... ....

    Today Avatar is BETTER! \m/

  41. h.... ....

    Unearth approves of this song!

    h.... ....

    Given that Unearth were a blatant ripoff of the NWOSHM, of course they do.

  42. D.... S....

    This is a prime example of the birth of this band. I heard about them I think in 2010 and was meh about it.
    Fast forward to their "mainstream" debut and BAM! Great metal band.

  43. R.... T....

    I love to see how much they've grown as a band. They're amazing.

  44. A.... A....

    John Alfredsson is awesome !!

  45. D.... F....

    THEN ....THE MAKEUP CAME.....

  46. P.... ....

    1:22 que animales,que animales,que animales

    P.... ....

    jaja ptm ahora voy a escucharlo diferente

    P.... ....

    Que cabrón c mega mamo xdddd

    P.... ....

    Oie men como se llamaba avatar antes :v?

    P.... ....

    BAJAJAJ

    P.... ....

    USTEDES SE MUEREN POR ESE MINUTO Y YO ME MUERO POR ESA PUTA VUELTA EN EL MINUTO 1:30 JAJAJJA

  47. C.... V....

    Go vegan 💚🌱❤️🐖❤️ love them for doing this

    C.... V....

    Christina Vereen Haha finally talks about the song and not about the m changing their style or something like that :)

  48. C.... ....

    those riffs are so freakin good!!! If they only stuck to this sound and developed it more this would have been the perfect band

  49. K.... K....

    liked they old form, like their new one.
    They are the best \mmmmm/

    K.... K....

    Kristóf Kormos yessss

  50. P.... S....

    I still think this is good, just the vocals needed some improvement and holy shit they have improved for the black waltz

  51. B.... W....

    Johannes looks like Joey Jordison in this videos jajaja lol

  52. 3.... ....

    I'm speechless....

  53. K.... A....

    I love Johannes

  54. T.... F....

    Wow, the beginnings of a great band, I mean, this is legendary

  55. M.... H....

    That isn't Tim playing guitar, is it? I see Kungen, but can't tell if it's Tim or not.

    M.... H....

    No, it's not Tim in the video, I believe that he joined the band just after the album Black Waltz was finished/released. The second guitarist is Simon Andersson, he left the band in 2011 or 2012 !

    M.... H....

    Simon was a dick. New guy seems way cooler.

  56. M.... ....

    Before it was a Freakshow :P

    M.... ....

    lmao! yep!

    M.... ....

    Anyway... I love the freakshow

    M.... ....

    This is the formation of the freakshow for me

  57. J.... F....

    it's like if at the gates and dark tranquility and every "scene" band ever had a kid.

  58. h.... x....

    Esta bueno pero es un sonido bastante generico. ahora si tienen un sonido totalmente propio

  59. F.... F....

    this is how bands should evolve; by far for the better

  60. D.... D....

    Ladys and gentlemen Avatar has returned again!

  61. C.... G....

    Se me hace raro escuchar su voz sin gutural

    C.... G....

    jejeje, ya somos dos

    C.... G....

    +El Reloj Custodio -666 Sabes, cuando hace guturales lo confundo con los de el vocalista de Slipknot(no recuerdo el nombre)

    C.... G....

    Cathaaa Guaripolo Corey Taylor

    C.... G....

    Suena más frenético, pero el gutural que tiene ahora es jodidamente epico!

  62. R.... M....

    This is honestly my favourite stuff from Avatar - especially from Schlacht and the self titled album.

    Not to say that their newer stuff is bad - far from it in fact. I like how the band have grown and evolved over time.

    I prefer their older stuff to be honest - this is by far one of their greatest songs in my opinion

    R.... M....

    Hank The Pigeon First things first, I love the Wonder Years picture/name.
    And I completely agree. Schlact is one of my favorite Avatar albums. But I still love their new stuff. Feathers and Flesh is a masterpiece. Completely different from Schlacht or their self titled, but still fantastic.

    R.... M....

    Yeah definitely, I mean I've let their newer stuff grow on me. I still prefer the old stuff but the new stuff is fantastic. It's different, but it's good different. It's just a shame that they never seem to play any of their old stuff live.

    R.... M....

    Ross McDonald Oh man! It's not often I see someone saying that avatar's older stuff were better but I'm so glad that you guys think so! My favorite album is a tie between the self titled album and black waltz. Thoughts of no tomorrow is a close second (mostly cause I've listened to it since I was 4 years old)

  63. L.... D....

    They sound way better now

    L.... D....

    Lenny Dean well I kinda agree but they were still pretty good then.

    L.... D....

    Lenny Dean no

    L.... D....

    Bell Coburn they're talking about their new stuff sounds better than this song which is old. Which I agree. They're new stuff sounds more organized and has a certain sound to it.

    L.... D....

    First two albums were Melodic Death and everything since then hasn't been. Still a good band, but I preferred the melodeath Avatar.

    L.... D....

    I prefer older avatar

  64. A.... C....

    johaness ❤

  65. j.... m....

    That's not johannes is it?

    j.... m....

    +Joshua Jasso okay thank you I was confused as hell haha.

    j.... m....

    It is Johannes.

    j.... m....

    He is Johannes

    j.... m....

    It is indeed Johannes

    j.... m....

    Joshua Jasso You fucking liar! That is definitely Johannes. I see my kindergarten teacher when I see him!

  66. K.... ....

    Can still hear that massive talent... but really glad they came into their own as a band. Now, they sound like NO ONE ELSE!!!! And I love the fucking life out of this band!!!!

  67. T.... ....

    I like the old style more than new one.
    Now Avatar looks like everyone else :/

    T.... ....

    i like album Avatar ^^

    T.... ....

    +TheInfectedRed to me this sounds more like everything else, sounds like one of those teenage bands that try and copy everything else, whereas their new look and style is more of a unique metal band

    T.... ....

    like everyone else? you must listen to great bands

    T.... ....

    Doesn't matter what they look like, they sound different.

    T.... ....

    opposite day?

  68. E.... B....

    HIS VOICE IS SO HIGH IM CRYING THIS IS GREAT I LOVE THE

  69. E.... B....

    ITS BABY JOHANNES

    E.... B....

    Yeah! Is him!

    E.... B....

    😍😍Johannes

  70. L.... C....

    Just saw them a couple months back in Lynchburg, they are amazing!!! Johannes is fucking tall!!!

    L.... C....

    +Lane Carr he is taller than me its for sure and im 6'0 ft he is about 6'2 maybe 6'3 i think

    L.... C....

    @MrTerminator26​ That's what i'm saying i mean i'm not too tall but still it kind of suprised me. I needed a ladder just so he could hear me lol

    L.... C....

    lmao yea it amazed me to first time i saw a full body pic of him and didnt think he was that tall until i actually saw a full pic of him and went holy shit

    L.... C....

    He is very tall! I happened to meet him, and I am 4'10", and with him sitting down, he was the same height as me standing up! It was crazy!

  71. T.... ....

    haha if I had heard this first, I just would of thought there we another generic metal band.

    T.... ....

    @ThcDinobot What made this so unique is the vocal sound, I have never heard anything like it before :)

    T.... ....

    @Lochoz GG vocals are generic as fuck here , sounds like any other band from Gothenburg.

    T.... ....

    You would have been right. They used to be one generic metal band, and this is a generic metal song. But they evolved.

  72. B.... M....

    I'm actually pretty sad that i never heard of this band before black waltz it's amazing how long they've actually been around "maybe not in america" but as someone said below 4 years ago they would make it someday and boy have they made it now they just need to start headlining more tours. I am just amazed on how perfect they nail everything live and how interactive they are with their shows without a doubt my biggest band crush i've ever had such a great group.

    B.... M....

    And now, 4 years after you comment, I'm going to finally see them. They're quite amazing now.

  73. C.... L....

    am I the only one who thinks the vocalist looks like joey jordison..?

    C.... L....

    Hahaha

    Excellent

    Yes its true

    C.... L....

    Joey's big brother.  :D

    C.... L....

    Cade Lewis he is way too tall lmao

    C.... L....

    So am I...really looks Joey in this video....hmmmm

    C.... L....

    he has a yt channel
    https://www.youtube.com/user/wwwboyinabandcom

  74. g.... ....

    Wow this is different

  75. C.... B....

    Only way I can tell it's the same band is by the dreadlocks guitarist.

    C.... B....

    The King.. The one and only, Kungen!

    C.... B....

    Henrik actually looks pretty much the same too. And it was Johannes unmistakably in the last scene lol, the same stare from Bloody Angel.

    C.... B....

    Thats a dumb tard comment

  76. D.... ....

    example of a band finding there way over the years going from good to so must more :D

  77. E.... G....

    Great!!!!! i love the old avatar and the new

  78. M.... ....

    definitely not as unique as black waltz haha

  79. M.... E....

    man, i found y'all because of black waltz and this is SO different. still love it, but if i heard this without knowing it was avatar i would have never guessed it was the same band

    M.... E....

    Same here.

    M.... E....

    @XMetalMatter As long as they can play this live as well, then I don't see why I would have a problem. 

    M.... E....

    @jackedup447 no problem at all. Shit's radical.

  80. F.... ....

    My god this band is perfect..

  81. L.... T....

    This band would be better with a new singer or if you actually understand a word he said in the the song because all them but the singer or awsome I ain't disliking or nothing I mean I still like the band

    L.... T....

    Gabrial Hazell False! Johannes is the best part of this band! Everyone else is fantastic too and I love them all, but I do believe that Johannes is the main mastermind behind what we now know as Avatar. They've come a long way though, and he's changed a lot.

    L.... T....

    What You Mean I Have No Username? Have you heard their newer music?

  82. S.... M....

    Keep the faith brother \,,/(-_-)\,,/

  83. S.... ....

    They were so different than they are now. I see the whole circus theme as a welcomed change :)

  84. B.... ....

    heh, podoba mi się :)

  85. E.... ....

    I love going back to videos I haven't seen in a long time and recognizing some of the comments I read back then. haha

    E.... ....

    Edain Do you like their newer music?

  86. J.... ....

    Hair-in-your-eyes-core ;)

  87. M.... N....
