I don't actually like extreme metal too much, but that was damn cool. I second the Elfen Lied and Soultaker segments, the Soultaker one has to be one of the most awesome action videos/segments I've ever seen.

Warheart's Soultaker track, Hitori's Elfen Laid, and Tsukin's X; those tracks really stood out to me, and were done insanely well.

Great job all around, I very much enjoyed it.

awesome ^^ I realy enjoyed this. Favorite tracks were gungrave, Elfien leid, and soultaker segments, but all of it rocked.

The only bad thing I could see is the quality issues with Track 1, (And maybe just a tad bit overuse of effects, particularly shacky camera, on the gungrave one) but aside from that I thought the project turned out well. congrats to all involved.

Oh, hey, it's finally online. Glad to see everyone is liking it.

I just want to also add that there is a Demons Within Website put together by Symphax. It's got a cool layout and additional info on each track, plus the audio remix for your listening pleasure.

Have fun and spread the word ... The DEMON is LOOSE!!

And I was starting to lose faith in MEPs. 7 Lefts Make A Right, didn't like it. Gang Rape, not impressed. XMasHell2, ok. The Demons Within, simply amazing. I have also found a little more interest in and a lot more respect for this genre you call metal. Now, I can't really tell the difference between rock and metal (except for the vocals). This is the first MEP that I've truly enjoyed. (Haven't seen any of the AMV Hell videos yet.)

I give this video,

It would seem I have an attraction to MEPs, so I downloaded this one. I won't comment much on video quality, cuz I had to get the XviD version (my compy's a little too slow to play h264 smoothly, unfortunately). Still, it looked really good, with the exception of the quality issues the other folks have already brought up.

Music-wise, I was really engrossed in this. I don't much care for growling, so it was cool to hear a lot of good, old-fashioned, instrumental rocking out.

Editing-wise, it was pretty good. There were a few segments with some overused effects, but as a whole, it all pretty much balanced out. I'm gonna have to join the bandwagon here and say that the Elfen Lied segment was my favorite, too.

There wasn't a single subpar section in this video, and it was a pleasure to watch from beginning to end. Kickass job to everyone~! ^_^ *golf clap....or would headbanging be more appropriate...?*

Best. Video. Ever.

\m/

My favorite parts were probably Veg's and Rubyeye's, because I'm a sucker for their styles. But major creds to Warheart for organizing all this, and creating an awesome compilation track. :up:

If only we had that headbanging Emoticon like on many Metal Forums.

I have to admit, I liked the Elfen Lied track so much, I went back and finished watching Elfen Lied because I completely lost interest in it half way through the series. There are indeed a few tracks that really impressed me more than others but the overall video itself is fantastic to watch & listen to. I also forgot to mention that I liked reading everyone's comments in making this video.

I've never been interested in Multi-Editor Projects ... until now! As MEPs go, I think this set a new standard or at least reinvigorated the creative process in making MEPs. High-Fives to Warheart for making this all possible.

I wonder if this video could be entered into an AMV contest at any conventions? That would be cool!

One of the few MEP's that I enjoyed all the way through, great job everyone. The elfen lied track was probably my favorite throughout it, any chance a stand alone release for it?
