I never gave you 5 pounds for drinking the forbidden funhouse water
With interest, it is now £286
When I heard Ratatata playing at the 12 minute mark I had a feeling you were going to vote on that at some point. Also, Poppy has a collab with Babymetal dropping next year and Bloodywood just dropped a teaser for one today that’s about to release on the 6th.
Good job talking over the whole thing. :)
Do you have a full live reaction to the entire album? I’d pay to see it if you had it on Patreon
Unfortunately we don't. Me and Shane did record us listening to it for the first time, but we didn't really react, it was more for notes for the review 😅. We're hoping to have a Patreon set up soon though where we could upload fun things like that in the future😊. Thanks for your support, it really does mean a lot! - Gibby
30:37 was the FOB speech that I was reliving in my head since WWWY in reference to Bang on the Doldrums 🎉
Words to live by! - Gibby
Favourites: Heavy Is The Crown, Two Faced, Casualty, IGYEIH Least favourite: Over Each Other, Cut The Bridge, Good Things Go
Having listened to it a lot more now, personally I'd say you're spot on! - Gibby
Moshpits ? I love metal and rock music but i hate moshing and moshpits. Will there be alot of moshing at this festival ? Asking for 2025 download festival
With the lineup looking like it is, it's hard to imagine many pits for bands like Weezer, but Korn will be a very active crowd. The crowd looks after each other, so if you need any help there will always be someone friendly nearby - Gibby
"Overflow" and "Good Things Go" were co-written by Jake Torrey (Grammy-nominated writer for 21 Pilots and more). This may explain why they have a different grove with hypnotic beautiful vocals. My two favorites on the album.
That influence definitely comes through. Some will love it, some won't, and that's ok - Gibby
Unsure if I'm going this year. Group who went last year are pretty divided due to the lineup so will have to see
Download is always fun outside of the music too. If you end up being the only one who wants to go, there is Camp Loner, which is dedicated for people going on their own and making friends there! - Gibby
In my opinion, Overflow is definitely my least favourite song on the album. it gives me Travis Scott vibes, and I agree entirely with Gibby "I can't help but hear Everything In Its Right Place' which is definitely not a bad thing, but the rest of the song is not to my taste.
It's my favorite. Going from Indiepop to a Stabbing Westward type Noise...just insane. I just think it was cut off too short
Yeah Travis Scott was what I was hearing on my first few listens! I don’t think it’s inherently bad but just unexpected for Mike I guess. Definitely one of the weaker songs on the album, I agree
It's something different and some won't like that change, which is entirely fair. New is not always better - Gibby
50 shows in one year (arena's bigger than the ever played before) Great Crowd response It seems they're just fine
McFly will rock it. So them a couple of years back. A real energy,
They'll be incredible, hoping they won't be in a crammed tent like Busted though - Gibby
Looks good to me. Why are jinjer so far down the pecking order ?
Talk over the whole damn thing...
Well you answered your own question they didn't release it until now because they want the hype right before the release date.
Guys, better pause than talk over it
You are dancing around the issue, overlooking Emily's affiliation is diagusting. Its not about moving on, the real fans would always return and listen she is in a cult known exploiting children sexually, exploiting adults financially, and a host of abuses. It is as simple as shopping for a singer who upholds Chester's memory inna way that doesnt spit in the face of mental illness and survivors. We love the band, she is not ok. Stop dancing around it. That is bullshit, I lost someone to suicide too. I am not bringing abusers around on a platform where kids are listening.
We discussed Emily’s affiliations in a separate video if you’d like to hear what we had to say on the topic - Gibby
casualty is my favorite off their album
This song slaps!
It's a good balance from a gender point of view, but this might be the whitest festival line-up I've ever seen.
Absolutely you’re right! There’s still a long way to go in terms of filling the diversity gap in music in general but particularly in the alt/metal scene. Are there any non-white bands or artists that you recommend we give a try? - Al
@TheAltVaultYT - I had to ask on Threads for someone to help me find any POC on the line-up, as I don't know a lot of the smaller bands. The only band recommendation I got was Loathe, which I've been checking out. Off the top of my head, these are the bands that jump out at me when I try and think of any to recommend. A lot of them have played DL previously, and then you've obviously got the big names like Skindred, Sevendust, The Prodigy, Skunk Anansie... Third Kulture Sleep Theory Blackgold Ayron Jones Nova Twins Tetrarch Bob Vylan Fever 333 Bloodywood I was hoping to discover some new bands 🤷🏽♀️ Most of the black musicians I know of are people I discovered through Instagram, and they're not really in bands 🫤
Great reaction piece, Download has such variety that it matches my eclectic music taste perfectly. There's always someone I want to watch on and next year seems no different.
Thank you 😊 the great thing about Download is that it’s really a melting pot of all of the smaller subcultures and genres within the scene, so there’s always something for someone! Who are you most looking forward to? - Gibby
@TheAltVaultYT Dead Poet Society, Korn, Green Day, Weezer and the Pistols. But also a lot of the lower ones who I've never heard of before.
I was skeptical of Emily, still am. She's a proper singer, but her background and personality are not in line with what Chester stood for. But Mike, Brad, Dave, and Joe deserve happiness. And because of that, I have decided to support them.
Loving the lineup
Who are you most excited for? - Gibby
@ Ive got to say green day. Never seen them live before. I’m seeing sleep token next Monday.
Looks amazing, well excited for it!
There’s something for everyone, who are you most looking forward to? - Gibby
@@TheAltVaultYT All the headliners will be great I think, but I'm especially looking forward to seeing Weezer as my 14 year old daughter is coming with us for her first time and they're a favourite band for both of us!
I dunno. 10 times better than 2024, but still not even half as good as any other year. Glad to see new bands getting a chance. And if I was going, I would happily see all 3 headliners. But none of them wow me. In fact i'm happy for Sleep Token, but I think they need a bit more experience under their belt. Now if Bullet and Sleep Token were swapped, then that would make much more sense to me.
We said the same about Sleep Token in our prediction, maybe a support slot would have been better for them, but it can only be a good thing that Download is finally starting to take risks on other bands! - Gibby
What camp were you in? Looks like orange
We were at the top of the hill in Blue camp, by the toilets and the vendors - Gibby
Utter garbage. Glad were off to bloodstock as usual.
We’ll be at Bloodstock as well next year, see you there! - Gibby
looks fucking shite mate
Its crazy to have bands like Nothing More and Filter wayyyyyyyy on the bottom. Those are bands that will sell a shtload of tickets
Regretfully I’ve not listened to either of them, where would you recommend we start? - Gibby
Boring, unimaginative lineup, if you're still listening to steel panther in 2024/5 it's time for you to wash under the foreskin for once
It's very poor imo the last few years have all been the same
This lineup looks beyond shite.
It's all GREAT but Sleep Token Sat HEADLINER.. that is a major WTF 🤣 Original Pistols! It will sound amazing! He's a great front man for them
In our prediction, we had Sleep Token as main support but it can only be a good thing that Download are taking risks on new bands. Hopefully it pays off! - Gibby
Meshuggah that low down the bill is weird
Yeah they fd up that list with a lot of bands
I've never seen Alice in Chains and they are one of my teen angsty bands that I've continued to listen to 30 years later. We don't have AIC but we do have Jerry Cantrell and I for one, will simply be humbled to see him. I think the variety is great, as you say, something for everyone. Couldn't name a McFly song, but certain I'd know some if I heard them. Personally I'm chuffed to see someone I know will bring smiles and good vibes. Lorna Shore isn't a band that I listen to, but I'll absolutely be there. Saw them last year at Download and although they're not on my playlist I can 100% appreciate the talent and I've found Will Ramos to be a wonderful human. I watch his podcasts with the Charismatic voice regarding how he does what he does, and the whole thing is fascinating. Very much looking forward to Apocalyptica, who doesn't love a cello?! And Starset.... something in the tone or pitch of the core of their sound does something to my body on a vibrational level. Proper happy there.
The way this poster is laid out might have them lower than they end up being. It would be a shame to see a band like that pushed down the bill when they blew Bloodstock away! - Gibby
I'm so confused as to who I won't to see but the first 2 I really want to see are green day and bullet for my valentine ❤
The problem with having so many great bands on is that inevitably there will be some tough choices. It’s a good problem to have really! - Gibby
Had fun watching the review, I also had an intense day at the fest and watched quite a few of the same bands! But most of all, I enjoyed the reveal that Pint On Head Man, who we also spotted, didn't actually have it glued on!!
These "fans" saying this new era doesn't sound kike LP are not true LP fans. The only people who get to decide what LP sounds like, are the members of LP. They decide the sound, the direction of the band. Not us, them and nobody else. I'm sick of those comments. They deserve to make music again. They deserve to be able to play their catalog of music. This was Mike's band first. People forget Chester was the last member to join. Chester was detrimental to the bands success and there will never be another like him. But hard take here, he was selfish in his actions. It took away everything from the rest of the band as well. Their friendship, their dreams, their success, their livelihood, their career. They have every right to continue as LP and play old songs and create new music. So excited to have a new era of LP. I grew up with the OG, now I get something fresh years later.
BONO OFFED CHESTER
Please, on the next video, can you timestamp each activity or band !
Thanks for the feedback! We will be going back and adding them to existing videos too 😊 - Gibby
What I'm going to write will be huge, whoever wants to read it, thank you, whoever doesn't want to, thank you too, everyone has the right to an opinion/say what they think. I was excited about the return, until I saw the things this girl is/was involved in, first Scientology (a bunch of idiots who claim that depression, anxiety and any mental problem do not exist), the japa guy is a hypocrite for putting her in the band, he says: fuck depression, the songs were made with the things Chester went through in life, there is a video where he mentions this and in the end the one singing now is a person who does not believe in problems, she is also a hypocrite. I saw a lot of people criticizing his children (even telling his son to kill himself, seriously? Ridiculous) his mother and his sister Tobi (a few months after his death she was the first to say that the japa guy is not a real friend, citing the beginning of Halfway Right, that was the business vision that passed on in the band, that he treated her brother badly and Chester's ex-wife confirmed it). The bad thing about showing a different view is putting up with his spoiled fanboys cursing, when they preach love and say they know how to accept different opinions. And I believe in Jaime, after all, Mike's fans have already written in my comments that I deserve to be shot in the eye (how sweet) There are few people who do some work for love, but of course money is involved, in the case of the Japa, it is more $ than love. And for those crazy people who say that the problem is that women sing, they are wrong, there are many women who sing much better than her. And for many who say they are fans of the band but are actually fans of Mike, saying that he is the soul, heart and mind of the LP who are belittling Chester (yes, there are many people belittling him, saying that if it weren't for the japa guy, Chester wouldn't even be known and would have been dead a long time ago), to this day none of them have been able to answer why the Japa guy didn't achieve success with Mark on vocals when he is the mind and the rest that I mentioned here, words from the fans, and he needed Chester to become famous. *About his death* Understand one thing, people, NOBODY lives with another person 24 hours a day to really know what's going on. Maybe Chester was killed mainly because of how Cornell died and those bruises on top of his head are strange (Chester and Cornel were part of NGOs that are against child and adolescent abuse, Dj Avicii a few years after exposing pedophilia suicide, McAfe also committed suicide (after discovering and trying to expose a pedophilia network and he said he was too well to do that, that they would commit suicide 'a la Epstein'), maybe it was suicide. The things that Chester's mother, his son and his sister said may be true, and they may not be either. However, I believe his sister more and even what his mother said. "During the band's rehearsal, Chester called me, perplexed and hurt, saying that they were going to replace him with a woman. She didn't understand and he said that the Japa guy told him during the rehearsal that if he left the band, he would put a woman in because he thinks the music sounds better with a woman's voice." Before this news came out, Jaime, who many criticize, said that the Japa guy has been in contact with this girl since 2019 and that she was already confirmed in the band. He just waited for the "dust to settle."
just curious why the hate for adtr?
