u/Masterofthelurk 2d ago

I also really like Chris’ feature on Witness the End by FFAK

u/Rick_Tap 2d ago

That song slaps so hard I love it!
Especially Chris going full goblin mode is awesome.

OPEN YOUR FUCKING EYES

u/Masterofthelurk 2d ago

Oh same for sure. “Hell yeah” was my response the first time I heard it.

It also thumps on my 10

Pretty objectively, the heaviest section of any miw song is puppets 2 starting around 1:52 and to 2:10. Its just pure black metal pretty much. Theres another pretty heavy section in that song and overall on Infamous. Creatures also had some BM influence and i feel like that does NOT get talked about enough.

u/Spooky_Bitz 2d ago

Puppets 2 is definitely up there

u/Harambltch 2d ago

In the last Apocalypse Fest, Chris acknowledged something along the lines that this was their hardest song to play before they played it and I can see that for how fast and heavy it is.

he's basically rap screaming the entire song, its unhinged and amazing

u/L1gm4J0hns0n 2d ago

Soft

If it’s dead we’ll kill it featuring Brandan Schiepatti from bleeding through burned at both ends immaculate misconception Abigail. Creatures and infamous best for heavier tracks

2

u/No-Opportunity2565 2d ago

Yes, that Schiepatti collab is heavy, I like it also lyrically. Abigail and the opener are some of my faves from Creatures.

u/C0C08388 2d ago

I started listening to them earlier this year and infamous & creatures are easily my top 2 albums for them. Scoring the end of the world and disguise are 3&4 for me. Can’t wait to see them next month live

u/No-Opportunity2565 2d ago

Im also an Infamous & Creatures person

u/Unkynd 2d ago

Slaughterhouse is my favorite. It goes hard

u/perkalicous 2d ago

All of When Love Met Destruction, specifically Billy in 4c Never Saw it Coming and To Keep From Getting Burned

u/PixieBlo0d 16h ago

I really do love "Headache", it's my fav song by MIW, and the first one I ever listened to. Playing God is really nice tho. I also love Disguise, meltdown and Voices. Biggest bangers imo

u/lornadc 2d ago

Headache is so underrated

u/MindTheGlint 2d ago

Take my upvote my friend

u/palmettobugnemesis 2d ago

i want to hear it live so bad 😩

u/lornadc 2d ago

I've seen them twice and neither times did they play it 😔

u/SamWillGoHam 2d ago

In the range of Graveyard Shift - Decades: Corpse Nation is their heaviest song, by far. There's nothing heavier that I know of. Those verses are brutal.

I say that range specifically because I don't really listen to anything before Graveyard Shift. I have listened to Creatures (album) and it's definitely heavier overall, but the production is not the quality I'm used to so that's why I don't listen to it regularly. I have not heard anything between Creatures and Graveyard Shift so there's probably things I'm missing out on.

u/TehScat 2d ago

Give Infamous a listen. It's worth your time, the production is significantly better than Creatures but still shows it's age. But there are some absolute bangers.

Disguise and Devil's Night. Those breakdowns will especially slam you in the chest if you listen to them on a premium sound system.

u/hansblixkilldslmshdy 2d ago

A song off either of their first two albums or possibly slaughterhouse or thoughts & prayers. But the heavy songs on the first two albums were another level 

1

u/Darren_Sykes718 2d ago

For me,it's Thoughts And Prayers,Slaughterhouse,Decades,and Playing God.

u/centrella6 1d ago

Creatures: Abigail, Puppets

Infamous: Black Damask, Puppets 2, If It’s Dead We’ll Kill It, Fatal

Reincarnate: Carry the Torch

Graveyard Shift: Soft, The Ladder, 570

Disguise: Thoughts & Prayers, Undead Ahead 2

Scoring the End: Slaughterhouse, Cause of Death, Corpse Nation, Timebomb

Decades: Decades, Playing God, Afraid of the Dark

For songs not on albums, Creatures X: To the Grave is also pretty heavy

1

u/PM_ME_ELMO 23h ago

Creatures X on the 2020 Deadstream got me hooked on this song

What have we becooooome,
BE-COOOOOOOOOOOME

u/Clean-Flounder-9098 1d ago

I immediately thought of the puppets trilogy but my favourite MIW song is probably slaughterhouse

1

u/Dilhoon 1d ago

Soundwise, I'd vote Puppets 2 and Soft.

But if we're talking about it's affect on the listener?

The original, Infamous version of Sinematic

u/Aarie_Kanarie 2d ago

Immaculate misconception, Abigail, Disguise, the Ladder, Hourglass.

u/ghostinyourbedding 2d ago

Soft and Timebomb aren’t the heaviest, but very good heavy songs!
