I doubt they would remove a documentary video about indiginous tribes who use body piercing so why does Heavy Metal always get singled out.
By the way this is a real good song and hopefully the band can recoup the loss of the MySpace video promotion through the publicity this has caused.

Never heard of the band so having the video removed is getting them more publicity than they would otherwise have got.

Seriously, look at the sh** that "Tom" likes and promotes. He's got a goddamn picture of him dressed as Michael Jackson and his stupid a$$ tour has bands like Hellogoodbyeand Say Anything(who the hell ever they are. maybe I should ask my little sister).

not that the song was anything special, but it still sucks a$$ that it would get removed as there wasn't anything "obscene" in the video at all. anyone who saw the band at download '05 who had the lead singer hanging from fleshhooks for the entire set will attest to that.

(Note: Turn on sarcasm detector.) Yeah, since Michael Jackson isn't obscene or anything. Have you seen the new Nightwish video? Holy crap there's some blood in it! THATS OBSCENE! DELETE IT! This is a bunch of crap, but the Nanny State progresses. And will do so so long as there are cranky soccer moms with sand in their snatch who have nothing better to do then look for things they don't like and take them away from the people who do. Not that I claim to know much about the American Bill of Rights, but it seems that the First Amendment is quickly going down the sh**ter as pretty much anything can be deemed obscene to somebody in some way or another. Next thing you know you'll be able to sue fat people because they are a visual obscenity and you don't want to have to look at them.
