"Psychosocial"
Yang looked at the tittle of the song
-so this will be the possibly last song-
Weiss then said curious
-the tittle sounds... interesting to say the least and being honest the boys have played very interesting music- she smiled remembering all of the things that they had seeing
Ruby and Neo smiled, Ruby said with excitement
-This has been a really fun ride heh heh, all of the songs we heard and now we just need to wait for the Concert, it's going to be so awesome- Neo smiled and with her semblance was again wearing roman's uniform and mask
Emerald and Blake laugh about their partners having fun and Coco just prepared for the song
Nora just grabbed the last soda of the pack and without anyone noticing gave a few snacks to Zwei while the dog waved his tail happy
Pyrrha and Velvet just said at the same time
-Let's see the last one-
they both looked at each other and laugh at the coincidence
everyone then sat and watched the last song of the disc
The video started with a distorted guitar riff and then started with a drum and bass line also a bunch of cuts of a abandoned house that was in a very long stay of decay while in the roof was written in white paint "ALL HOPE IS GONE" and then with a faded image of Jaune and Ren on a night started to appear while the video made constant jumps between the house and a large field and then in the distance 9 persons appeared wearing enormous masks that had different expressions on them but none of them was happy or calmed, they looked hand made and with quick cuts the persons were moving towards the camera holding the giant masks, then it started and the music was heavy the riff one of the dirtiest and then it showed Roman and Sun playing with their instruments and then it showed Mercury with his large drum kit while fire could be watched in the background and hitting the drums hard it started a small progression that the two guitars followed, then in quick cuts showed that the persons put the giant masks on spikes and some of the guys like Yatsuhashi and Adam then with another cut Jaune made a scream and the song started properly
"OH YEAH"
The girls were impressed the way the build up to the song was something awesome
Yang and Coco said excited
-THAT WAS FUCKING AWESOME-
Ruby and Neo put the rock on sign and just as always started to headbang
Nora followed the two girls soon after and started to headbang as well
Weiss just was impressed of how filled with energy she was right now she didn't know what to do with it and was a little weird feeling
Blake just wondered.. should she headbang as well... maybe, Emerald was considering as well but she was more happy watching the video
Pyrrha and Velvet just expected the video is as awesome as the opening
Then as the music kept going the video showed that the band was in a large field in the night with a white barn on the background and there was a fire behind them but they didn't seem to be bother by it they were putting all of they're attention to the music, Jaune, Sun, Adam and Cardin were headbanging, Mercury was playing like the mad man he was Yatsuhashi played his guitar in a dominant fashion, Neptune was playing and moving not keeping himself in a steady position, Ren played while having a large black cape with a hood showing his mask and positioning himself near Cardin's Percussion kit, Roman was with his own large percussion playing while having his bat nearby and headbanging while playing, the flames giving the night a yellow/orange light and making the band look like really cool, Jaune didn't wait anymore and started to scream/sing the lyrics
"I did my time, and I want out
So effusive, fade
It doesn't cut
The soul is not so vibrant
The reckoning, the sickening
Packaging subversion
Pseudo sacrosanct perversion"
Neo,Ruby and Nora kept going while Jaune's screams filled them with more energy to spent on the headbang
Coco and Yang were smiling this song was amazing and they did something really out of character, Coco left her shades on a table and took off her hat and Yang despite of what could happen to her hair, they joined in the headbang feeling all of the emotions and energy from before finally be used
Pyrrha, Emerald, Weiss, Velvet and Blake watched as the brawler and fashionista joined in the headbang machine with a surprised face that was really unexpected
The video continued as the giant masks from before were showed being burned to a crisp while the band kept playing Cardin moved to his percussion and joined playing with the band, Adam was with his keyboard in the back headbanging like a raging bull while Sun was scratching the disc with his tail while screaming to the air making the eyes of his mask flash red Jaune was headbanging a lot as well but stopped so he could scream the lyrics out and then started to headbang again
"Go drill your deserts
Go dig your graves
Then fill your mouth
With all the money you will save
Sinking in, getting smaller again
Undone, it has begun
I'm not the only one"
The girls were having the time of their lives right now, who would have thought that such a simple action of moving your head back and forth would be so exciting and liberating
Yang and Coco joining to the girls was something unexpected but something else was going to happen
Velvet stepped in starting to move her head a little and then with the progression of the music she started to go faster and faster until she practically joined her team leader in the headbanging
Weiss saw this and just shouted
-YOU TOO VELVET?!- Blake and Pyrrha looked as shocked as the heiress Velvet was joining to the other girls
Emerald was surprised that bunny girl was so shy all the time and now she was just going in to a possible neck injury...
-...AH fuck it- said Emerald not caring anymore, if Velvet joined why couldn't she as well so she just jumped right in to headbanging as well
Weiss and Pyrrha were just shocked again the green haired illusionist joined as well
Blake watched as Em jumped to the headbang wagon and she was still considering it...
Then the band changed playing a little softer and melodic signaling that this was the chorus part of the song, Yatsuhashi and Neptune played smother and got a little closer to each other to play together, Ren played a little more freely and moved to the music flow, Mercury stopped a little with his aggressive drum play and instead played more composed Adam and Sun just kept playing their stuff normally but a little calmer Roman and Cardin were preparing something in their sets of percussion and Jaune singed the chorus with calm and harmony
"And the rain will kill us all
Throw ourselves against the wall
But no one else can see
The preservation of the martyr in me"
Weiss liked this part of the song, the more calm and melodic side of the band was the side she liked the most, songs like "Vermilion part 2" and even if it was sad "Snuff" were songs that showed so much emotion and harmony that it felt right to her
Pyrrha just enjoyed the sound of Jaune's voice, she loved how his voice sounded... well of course when he wasn't screaming all the time... sometimes
Blake enjoyed that part because it was as heavy as it was melodic and the result was really appealing to her
The other girls kept headbanging just a little slower until the next breakdown came
After that little part was done, the band again started to played with anger and energy, Cardin and Roman grabbed mics and shouted the title of the song while Jaune headbang and walked to see all of his partners... his friends... his brothers, play this song while in the giant heads burned in some quick shots and the fire erupted again while the band played
"Psychosocial
Psychosocial
Psychosocial
Psychosocial
Psychosocial
Psychosocial"
Jaune then started to scream again and some cuts showed some of the band doing things, Adam was moving his head letting the nails in his head flow like crazy, Cardin was hitting a steel keg with a stick, Roman was hitting a keg as well only hi was doing it with his bat, Neptune was moving his head to the sides while he played
"Oh, there are cracks, in the road we lay
But where the temple fell
The secrets have gone mad
This is nothing new
But when we killed it all
The hate was all we had"
Blake ended considering it and just let herself go again for the day and joined her friends in the headbang mayhem the energy that she had watching the video was just expended the only way that it needed to be expended
Pyrrha instead of being surprised, laugh a little she was actually expecting Blake to join the headbang Emerald, Yang, Coco and Velvet those were surprises but Blake?, nah she wasn't
Weiss just looked a little annoyed, she and Pyrrha were the only ones left just watching the video, and well she could see that everyone was having fun... and Oum she was having a lot of energy
More cuts showed more band members doing things, Sun was headbanging a lot and kind of dancing to the music while his mask changed the color of his eyes to red almost all the times he opened his mouth, Ren was headbanging more now the impressive thing was that his hood was not failing off so it showed little of his mask, Yatsuhashi was playing while his mask glowed orange and yellow from the fire making look like something out of a slasher film, Mercury was in the back headbanging while his root gloves move faster making every time he hit a part of his drums look like he hated those things Jaune did a thumbs down while his mask showed to be a little paler in the presence of the flaming lights
"Who needs another mess?
We could start over
Just look me in the eyes
And say I'm wrong
Now there's only emptiness
Venomous, insipid
I think we're done
I'm not the only one"
Pyrrha was enjoying this a lot, every time the boys played was a rush of energy, she only felt that way when she was in a battle, the adrenaline was a mysterious drug, hitting you when you need it the most but also when something so crazy and powerful happens, the energy, the way it flowed through her body, it was intoxicating
Weiss really liked the song, it was cool, but it annoyed her also, she can say that she liked the band but it was so annoying, the roller coaster of emotions she went through listening to the music, she needed to let it go somehow or it will make her go crazy
The headbang group was now feeling the dullness of a neck going to extreme pressure or excessive exercise but honestly they couldn't stop, it was something weird the feeling that maybe you need to stop but at the same time not wanting and not letting it happen
Again the chorus hit and a cut showed what was burning, it was the nine pointed star symbol of the band in every point was one of the spikes with the giant masks, making them burn, Cardin and Roman then put something on their chests, like a small platform to put something in it, Jaune was headbanging a lot now while making his body move with him, this was their art, this was them...
"And the rain will kill us all
Throw ourselves against the wall
But no one else can see
The preservation of the martyr in me
Psychosocial
Psychosocial
Psychosocial
Psychosocial
Psychosocial
Psychosocial"
Again the cut showed something else, this time a wide shot of the band playing, Yatsuhashi was making a small solo with his guitar while the band headbanged Yatsu played fast and was not stopping for anything and when he was almost over Neptune continued with another solo of his own complementing the one Yatsu just did making it one of the most epic solos they played so far, while that solo was playing Cardin and Roman grabbed the kegs and threw them to the flames in anger then they put a snare on the platforms in their chest and grabbed some drumsticks, then Neptune ended his solo, everything went quiet for a moment and Cardin and Roman played the drums on their chests making a literal marching act around the band
Pyrrha smiled, what the heck everyone was doing it, she had too much adrenaline going through her body, she was going to headbang but before that she turned to Weiss
-You know i saw how you are too tense from the music... just let yourself go and it will be fine- that was what Pyrrha said before joining her friends in the headbang wagon leaving Weiss as the only person not doing it
Weiss just stayed calm for a little thinking of what Pyrrha said...
Screw it... the Heiress of team RWBY joined to her friends, not caring about anything so she headbanged and it was what she needed to let everything go
Feeling the song Sun joined Jaune and screamed the last lyrics like crazy, Cardin and Roman kept playing and marching now being joined by Mercury and the guitars Ren then joined also and Adam headbanged it was one big brotherhood of metal
"The limits of the dead
The limits of the dead
The limits of the dead
The limits of the dead"
Sun let his tongue out for a second and his eyes glow red, Mercury played again like a beast and now Cardin and Roman were standing in the center of the video playing, Adam was headbanging so hard most of his nails couldn't be caught on the video, Yatsuhashi, Neptune and Ren were together now playing the strings of the band while the riff was heavy again Jaune knew that the next part was screaming he prepared himself and let it all out while Sun made the vocal backup
"Fake anti-fascist lie (psychosocial)
I tried to tell you, but (psychosocial)
Your purple hearts are giving out (psychosocial)
Can't stop a killing idea (psychosocial)
If it's hunting season (psychosocial)
Is this what you want? (psychosocial)
I'm not the only one"
Now that everyone was headbanging a mutual feeling was shared, this was cathartic, now they could understand better why the guys do this type of music, it was liberating, your mind was free, the anger, the sorrow, the pain, all of that didn't matter because they are liberating it thought this music, the energy and passion was the thing motivating them, they were letting demons out of them, this is why headbang feels like it feels, yeah you may be sore after it, but at the moment of doing it you let all out just like music in general
So the girls headbanged but they felt amazing while doing it...
Zwei on the other hand just jumped watching every girl in the room headbanging
The band knew that they will be ending the song soon so they played again in a melodic phase, showing their talents as a group and then the giant masks finally were burned completely so they continued to play the chorus
"And the rain will kill us all
Throw ourselves against the wall
But no one else can see
The preservation of the martyr in me
And the rain will kill us all
Throw ourselves against the wall
But no one else can see
The preservation of the martyr in me"
Now it was the time to finish this big so the band just made a aggressive turn again everyone headbanging and Jaune screamed the last lines of the song
"The limits of the dead...
The limits of the dead"
Then after all of that the video made a cut of all the band with their masks on and it was over
After hearing the song ending the girls stopped headbanging, everyone was breathing heavily trying to regain the air lost in that cardio, but at the same time they felt so relaxed and calm
Ruby started to laugh a little and then soon Weiss started to laugh as well, followed by Emerald, Pyrrha, Nora, Yang, Coco, Blake, Velvet and then Neo started to laugh in silence... that was intense and awesome
they couldn't wait for the Knotfest
