Avenged Sevenfold - A Little Piece of Heaven reaction | A WILD RIDE!
There is so much going on here that it's hard to process. Musically, this is one of the most unique songs I've ever heard. The use of stringed instruments and orchestra adds a really cinematic element to this, complimenting what we see in the video. The video and even lyrics are very dark, tragic, violent, but also weirdly emotional in a way. Really like this take on heartbreak and a dark twist on a sad love story. Never realized what I was missing out on!

Tool - Pneuma reaction | STUNNING!
Переглядів 4673 місяці тому
This song is what Tool is ALL ABOUT! Absolutely fire drumming from start all the way to finish. Not sure how it's even possible! Love the deep, hypnotic riffs in the song which really hits differently with each variation. Maynard evokes so much soul and feeling without needing to do too much. He is great at blending his vocal tones right with the music. Like the overarching concept of the song ...
Crazy - Gnarls Barkley reaction | THAT VOICE!

Really love this performance from all aspects. The effortless power that Ceelo has in his vocals is just crazy. I really like the song structure as well, with the background instrumentation being so groovy and melodic. Loved reading about the source of inspiration for the lyrics. Dark, real, yet so beautiful. No wonder this song is such a classic!
Alice in Chains - Brother reaction | live MTV UNPLUGGED
Переглядів 2024 місяці тому
This song has a strange ambience to it that I've never really heard before. Much of it has to do with the A7 tonal center of the track and that Acoustic Bass! Love the harmonies between Layne and Jerry, complimenting each other so well. Acoustic guitar soloing is a highlight on this song too, really digging the phrasing there. Really eager to hear the original studio version the way this is sou...
Korn - Coming Undone reaction | ANTHEM OF INSANITY
Переглядів 834 місяці тому
This track not only hits, it slams! I gained a ton of appreciation for the artistic choices they made, with the cool sound effects and sludgy guitar tones. I love that Korn combines so much of what I love from all types of genres into their version of nu-metal. There is a cool sense of rhythm in the vocal delivery that I love as well, find it very charismatic. this only makes me want to hear mo...
Corey Taylor - Snuff reaction | GUT WRENCHING
Переглядів 94 місяці тому
Very rarely does a song strike me as deeply as this one. This performance in particular was tough to get through because the lyrics are just absolutely perfect. Any and everyone should listen to this song as a testament to how powerful and heart shattering love can be, yet there still remains something beautiful in the separation. Little things that Corey does with his voice shows how versatile...
Avenged Sevenfold - Shepherd of Fire | MY NEW FAVORITE!
Переглядів 695 місяців тому
Really powerful song, with a sick buildup and main riff. I love how Matt Shadows carries the song's melody in the verses over the chugging guitar riffs. The whole song is weirdly catchy and epic, and the theme is honored brilliantly through the lyrics. It's still stuck in my head even days after this reaction. Blessed to have seen them perform this song live! #avengedsevenfold #rock #metal
AC/DC - Let There Be Rock reaction | A BEAST OF A SONG!
Переглядів 2225 місяців тому
Starting with Bon Scott, can tell he must have a great stage presence even from looking at the camera! A perfect complement to the intensity of the rest of the band, especially Angus Young on the guitar! I didn't expect the length of soloing at all in this song, but it is just neverending, in-your-face attitude. Malcolm young keeps a great groove and is assisted with a firm rhythm section that ...
Tool - Parabol/Parabola reaction | MYSTIFIED
Переглядів 6865 місяців тому
This track started off so peaceful, almost eerily so. Really beautiful, ethereal tones from the vocals to the 'space' that the sound and production put you in. That was 'Parabol', setting up the message for the big hitter that is Parabola. Parabola has some really cool connecting riffs, with the same hypnotic note sequences from the intro. SOme crazy drumming and Maynard's intense vocals in the...
Queen - Hammer to fall live reaction | INFECTIOUS ENERGY!
Переглядів 3815 місяців тому
Reminds me of the Old Queen i used to listen to back in the earlier days of this channel. The charisma is evident here as you see them on stage, with Freddie belting effortless power vocals and Brian May's no-nonsense riffing. The lead guitar work here is really strong, with some crisp vibrato. War being the backdrop off the song gives it a sort of defiant energy that I love too. Some of the su...
Avenged Sevenfold - We Love You reaction | THEY PULLED IT OFF!
Переглядів 855 місяців тому
This is the last thing I expected, but part of the greatness of the song is how surprising and jarring it really is. It's also HEAVY AF in some moments, with some pretty melodies surrounding these moments. I can't help but admire some of the effects and sound combinations. It is so unique and unlike anything I've ever heard in another song. The blends of genres, sporadic changes in rhythm, and ...
Pantera - Domination live reaction | MOSCOW '91
Переглядів 1676 місяців тому
A savage performance with some of the most 'metal' atmostphere you can have. The song switches from fast instrumental intro and transitions into slow, thudding verses where Phil fills in the gaps with a brutal performance. The punchiness of the rhythm section further adds to the flair of this performance. Finally, the legendary (probably my favorite) metal breakdown and a solo masterclass by Di...
Neil Young - Don't Let it Bring You Down reaction | LIVE 1971
Переглядів 3236 місяців тому
Just a stunning display of songwriting and musicianship. Such a clear set of images burn through my head as he delivers the lyrics. However, the "it" in the song's title is what sticks with me. It is a bit of a mystery to grasp, yet it is easy to feel what he means just by listening to the song. That is the talent of a true songwriter. Complemented by some sweet sounding, modally tuned acoustic...
Dream Theater - Pull Me Under reaction | MASTERCLASS!
Переглядів 919 місяців тому
This is a complex, yet insanely catchy song that really gets your adrenaline going. They throw in so many individualized parts per instrument, notably in the guitar and drums. Very standout drumming, with a heavy thunderous sound mixed with some rapid fire patterns and fills. Guitar-work is addictive rhythmically, and some shreddy yet emotive solos. Vocally, I was very surprised at how much I l...
Neil Young - Hey Hey, My My reaction | LIVE 1985
Переглядів 2349 місяців тому
This sounds, feels, hits like a timeless classic. Neil Young has always done so much with so little, and it shows here. He looks focused and determined, levying powerful words like "rock and roll will never die", a tribute to Johnny Rotten, and the universal "once you're gone... you never come back". Vocally this is a sublime performance, classic neil young with some great control. Very cool ri...

    The version of their 1976 demo is pretty good too. Interesting to see how it changed over time. Guitar tone almost sounds like ZZ Top. ua-cam.com/video/jXZnB2xJ26s/v-deo.html

    According to Tommy Shannon (bass) this was their best performance on tape, ever. He also says in his book that Stevie was in a coma 1 hour before the show, overdosed on cocaine. Medical personnel were called in with vitamins and IV fluids (causing the extra sweat), and revived him just minutes before going on stage. The most "connected to his instrument" guitarist ever,......Sorry Jimi. SRV did this again, after sobriety in 1985, at Austin city limits towards the later 80s.

Chaos Over Cosmos is an international prog metal project done completely online - by me (a guitarist and composer) and session vocalists from many different parts of the world. The typical elements of my music are technical solos and heavy riffs, mixing the clean and harsh vocals and spacey, science-fiction vibe.

    Testament was and is the most criminally underestimated band of the thrash metal era. Everybody tried to paint them as Metallica clones but their melodic mastery far surpassed any of their predecessors and their overall sound dynamic set them apart as a legendary metal act.
