In 1992 the black metal band Immortal made what is considered to be one of the worst music videos of all time: Call of the Wintermoon
Immortal is actually a really great band if you like black metal, but the video is painful to watch lol
Lol wtf
Some of their other early videos from the 90s are pretty cringe too, but this one by far is the worst lol
I was just getting into black metal in the late 90s so I guess I completely missed this video. Lol
That’s about when I got into it too! I got a lot of the early 90s stuff when I started working at a record store in 99 and I found that the late 80s/early 90s black metal scene was a very strange place lol

Nah totally hilarious and endearing!🤣
Aaron Carter’s “How I beat Shaq” is pretty hilarious. They actually got Shaq in it, but it’s clear that Aaron Carter had no idea how to play basketball. And they have to make it look like he’s better than Shaq? Yeah right
Oh wow… I got through about a minute and a half and had to turn it off… the video is pretty bad but the song itself is the cringiest part lol
The other video I posted made me remember what may be the actual worst video of all time. Really all of his videos are so bad they almost seem like a parody, but he was super serious about all of it lol
Watch FADADES at your own discretion
Last I saw it isn’t actually clear whether or not Fadades is parody or legitimate. Very clear in any either case that Fadades is great.
Especially within a genre like black metal where bands will make contra-conventional artistic decisions by way of course as it is, stumbling upon a vibe like this out of honest artistic expression vs. deriving it with a manifest ambiguity where the tongue seems to sprout from the cheek almost hardly matters. However Fadades came to be, it’s a monument to whatever it actually is.
I am now in pain. why am I now in pain?! I don’t understand. it hurts.
Too much psychomathematical metal will do that! That’s what he actually calls this music lol
Nobody has said Rebecca Black - Friday yet?
Fuck I am getting so old.
Yes, this is THE moment of that music video haha
“Rock Me Tonight” by Billy Squire. It may be before many people’s time so here is a link to the Cracked article about how that one music video ruined Billy Squire’s entire career.
It’s so squirmy cringe, I watch it every once in a while just to remind myself I’m not THAT bad a screw up. Oof.
for me its about the contrast between an amazing song and an absurdly terrible video that in no way captures the tone or feel or quality or intent or expression of the song. for my money its depeche mode’s leave in silence.
whatever J-Lo has been working on
I today accidentally watched arriana grande’s “yes and” and had to quit 1 minute in so much cringe entitlement etc🤢
Ylvis - The Fox is one of the most cringiest music video.
That’s kinda the point though.
This song is seriously in one of my playlists 💀 (“Music type 1 Mk4 S2”), though I have already considered moving it to playlist “Music out of directory” which is used for a mix of stuff.
Now that you mentioned it, I probably will.
