I´ve had depression in my teenage. I always said that metal music saved my life, and this is one of that bands who supported my mental health. Now I have 35, and Im starting a Metal Band, to return to the metal family all that they gived to me. Love for everyone.

Thank you Mark for the body of work. Your writing has always been very important to me. You hit the target with your lyrics every time. AP

Mark is incredible.. much love from Canton. "They call it evil because they hear the screaming.. I call it music because I hear the meaning."

I can't believe I didn't know this existed until now.

Awesome video. Oddly reassuring to know that someone I looked up to growing up deals with some of the same depression/anxiety issues I have. And man, what a nostalgia trip, The Impossibility of Reason was the album that got my friends and I in to "real metal" back in high school. I must have watched that Dehumanizing Process DVD a couple dozen times. PS: Please make "Stick a Knife in Your Enemy" in to a real song. :)

They used the riff during the middle part of comatose 🤘

Honestly, Chimairas music now matter how brutal or dark it was saved my life. As a person who also struggles w depression and mental health. Something about the songwriting and music that Mark wrote for chimaira was a breath of fresh air. Especially after my mom committed suicide at 39 when I was 13, 2 yrs after the incident, perhaps one of the greatest metal albums ever comes out. The Impossibility of Reason. Lol as a teen struggling w mental health issues and going to therapy at the time. Looking at the lyrics, the blasting drums and riffs what stood out the most was how much Mark Hunter inspired me thru the music. Granted I can only imagine how he's gone thru yrs of hard tours, traveling, band changes etc plus whatever in his past life. I can just imagine how much of a toll it took on the guy. Honestly, I feel blessed I got to see them in 2003, 2007 and 2009. I'm glad to see he's doing well health wise and glad he's got a new passion to express while calming his mental health issues. Mark Hunter, a God and genius in metal. Thank you for some badass yrs and badass music

tbh, first when this video appeared in my reccomended section, i thought, wth, Down Again? sure, thats a Chimaira song, but that doesnt look like mark... just gave that video a watch and god damn... hits in the right points right there for me. thanks.

Currently having a really bad time mentally, So I'm watching this again.

Wow it is crazy how they all look now. Short hair and everything.

just stumbled onto this randomly. this is awesome. thanks for this

Chimaira remains top of mind for me in 2018 and now this happens, life is good. Thanks Mark!

An amazing documentary. Definitely worth watching again

I’m watching this having heard Mark talk about it on Flynn’s podcast, this video is compelling, relatable & important stuff, very well done! Love and miss Chimaira, saw em so many times in the early 2000’s, for a couple years seemed they were on every heavy bill rollin thru So Cal. Dude but when they drop Pictures in a gold room! Holy shit! Come back👊🏼🤘🏼

What a nice documentary but i miss andols a lot! He is one of my most inspiring idols i ever had! I hope that some day chimairas old "crew" will reunite and do some shows in Europe or at least create a new album! That would be a dream! Cause I grew up with u guys and i love your sound and ur personality.... I really miss a new album that sounds old skool and really kicks ass!

Great documentary of a great band!

I wish it was at least an hour. This talk is what I max. relate to.

what an awesome video, thanks for making this!

fantastic work. Thank you to all involved. more work towards casting off the stigma of mental illness and with work this amazing i hope it speaks volumes to everyone else like it does to myself and i imagine many others who suffer. eternally grateful

Amazing! thnx for this greetings from Monterrey, México

I can not describe the satisfaction and joy that Mark and his band mates have given to my son and i. My son and i still talk about the fun we had listening to this INCREDIBLE band!!! Thanks for the music and the memories.

Watching this makes me miss those days man. I was blessed to play a few shows with you guys on one of your tours. Playing the agora, the music back then, the times, the jager tours that we all did. Man........ those memories will last forever. I’m just glad to say I got to play a few shows with u guys, and meet you all and hang out. Def miss it

Amazing video. It's a shame they won't consider picking this all back up. If one band can come back absolutely massive, it's Chimaira.

This is fantastic.

Excellent. Great to see these dudes killing it still, albeit part time. I find balance through Music and illustration. Creative brains are the most sensitive but i wouldn't have it any other way.

Always loved you guys

This is so epic, made my day ! Thanks.

I remember being at Ozzfest 2003 in Raleigh NC and seeing these guys. Had never heard of them at the time. I was at the second stage and they were doing the metal moses part the crowd sea to 'Pure Hatred' I believe. I had just come back from the beer tent with a fresh 7 dollar cup, and I'm at the back of the crowd mind you when it kicks off. It starts up and I immediately get pushed by someone behind me, throwing me forward into a guy who was already down but in the process of getting back up. So I'm hopping over this guy trying not to spill my beer, and as hes getting up he flips me while Im hopping over him. Totally accidental on his part. This was all in a matter of seconds. I'm on the ground coming to while there's total chaos around me and the first thing I did was look to see if I still had beer, and somehow, not sure how, I still had three quarters of a cup. Couldn't believe it !! Anyways, that was my first encounter with Chimaira. Loved them ever since. That was the biggest mosh pit I had ever witnessed at an Ozzfest, which was my fifth one. Good times...

This band always gives me power, similar to Pantera. Strength beyond strength.

Great film! Stay strong Mark, you made a great sacrifice with your music, but then again changed the Metal world completely \m/

Very interesting documentary, I love how it's not all about the music and shit but the people behind it and their state of being.

Chimaira got me back into heavy music after a long hiatus due to the direction metal went in the late 90’s-early 2k’s. Their music resonated with me for some reason at the time and after a seeing this video and a long struggle with my own demons I think I understand now know why. Thank you for making this Nick. ❤️

Absolutely! That’s why we made it. The band played a big part in my life in the same way.

This is great stuff. Good work.

This band is pure fucking excellence. Got me and alotta people I know outta some hard times. Always felt bad putting Slipknot behind chimaira hence my born and raised roots are from Iowa and Slipknot being my real first dose of heavy shit just something clicked instantly listening to the pass out of existence album. And every record they followed up with delivered more and more each time. Can't go a day without blasting a fucking classic from these bad mothafuckas

All Chimaira fans: "FUCK THAT LIGHTING BOLT!"

Love Chimaira. 🖤

Glad this popped up in my feed after hearing him talk about it in his interview with Robb Flynn the other day. I’d no idea it existed. Looking forward to watching it today.

Great and deep documentary. I known Mark Hunter for many years and loved chimera for many years. And around the time 2003 and 2004, partying and drinking HUGE amounts of alcohol with Chimera was outstanding. Chimera are one of the greatest bands ever, they are like if you take the best elements of slipknot and mix it with the best elements of morbid angel, you get chimera, they are death metal with a nu metal feel. Very interesting indeed. And amazing musicians. I can see where a lot of the mental illness comes from, and trying your hardest to get off alcohol is the hardest thing in the world. And that in itself is a life killer. But I can see people still love this band as I still do as well. And it is awesome Mark Hunter found another thing he can get himself into. And make amazing photos. I hope chimera get back together as the original line up and have one more go at the world of metal. Because at one point. THIS WAS THE FUCKING BAND

I'm satisfied with the music they've created. It's great but also sad at the same time to relate to someone so much that I loved. At the end of the day, I just hope he's well and if I see them again live or they make more music I'll be one of the first to be excited but if not, I know it's for the betterment of their lives and well being.

You are an inspiration.

Amazing band. Love it.

Really well done! Great job

Excelente trabajo audiovisual en todo, las tomas, el color, sonido, montaje, todo genial, y el mensaje sobre el camino recorrido por Mark Hunter y como ha madurado y en el andar ha ayudado a muchas personas con sus experiencias, es profundo, personal y motivador, un gran aplauso para el creador de esta pieza de arte

Why'd it take me 3 years to find this? Lol

❤

The band broke down because Mark choose to continue with 5 different members, not cause the music business broke down. When you come to a certain level it isn´t the music coming first. You still hear of bands like Lamb Of God, KIllswitched Engage and sucky bands that cannot be compared to Chimaira, but they had/have people who understood/understands the business better. It seems like you guys just didn´t had the tools for it at the end. And that´s a shame because you´re in the big league, especially at my place along with Slayer and Metallica, because you sounded unique! Sorry, I´m drunk, but still smart. Cheers from Sweden

Love ya Mark but no such thing as "heat lightning".

hunter growl vocal is like no other, to me he is the best vocalis. too bad chimaira is no more

Cleveland has such a bad rap.. yet we created one of the best metal bands of all time.. created the NFL..and so on and so forth.. I think its a jealousy issue.. just my opinion.. the heart of it all..

That’s not true Mark! Fans are fans and I know I gaf. Anything you as individuals put out or as Chimaira. Take Rob and Andols instrumental album. I’d buy your photography book! I support all of you and Chimaira

music still stinks
