system of down soad toxicity reaction first time hearing alex hefner byob - Розваги
I have NO IDEA what the fuck is up with the audio 😂🤣 I noticed that during the edit but thought I was tripping. So weird! Sorry guys. Hope it’s not too distracting ❤️🤘🏼
I only had my left ear of my headphones in.
Brother since 2018 im suggesting System of a down mind
I just ordered new headphones as I thought mine had died 🤣😂🤣😂 £98.99 they cost me ☹☹☹☹☹...... only kidding but I did check my headphones and syringe out my ears and the old cotton buds got used and went to another music zone to confirm they were ok
I was literally tripping out and making sure my headset wasn't f**** up lol.
since we're on the subject of sound, it's also a little distracting to hear the song being picked up by your mic as well, anything you might be able to do about that in the future?
other than that i love the reactions!
My left ear enjoyed him talking a lot.
😂🤣
I thought my headphones ate shit
I know lol, it's alex so it's all good
@@Jekyll--N--Hyde i kept giving my headphones a sensual massage the entire video until i realized.
😂😂
I thought my right earphone was broken for a second
Same!
Alex's voice was only coming from the left headphone.
same here hahahah
@@tassiodutra7914 no shit
same
“Ha it didn’t give me a heart attack for a change”
*gets scared 5 seconds later*
Always expect the unexpected from SOAD. Always. Lol
I’m cracking up for a solid minute “didn’t give me a heart attack” 20 seconds in *jumps*
ye totally real jump scare...
Even funnier if you consider that he already knew this song... totally geniune and believable
@@andrepires1308 yup, integrity is everything
Are you not entertained?
Lol me too
In a weird way SOAD is like a metal version of Queen. With their unique sound and amazing vocals.
My two favourite bands! makes sense.
Could not agree more my guy
Queen is no match for SOAD in my opinion
Wow, I would have never thought of this.... But yeah, this is pretty spot on. Very good comparison, my dude!
This is so true
I love how you explain the "message" of the songs you react to, i m a german dude just listening to songs because they sound good, but you make me feel that stuff in a different way, keep on the good work alex
Kommt mir bekannt vor XD
Famous last words. "Didnt scare me for once"
I probably would’ve called it “Revisited” rather than “Reaction”, but happy to hear a fresh take on it from you after being exposed to much more of their catalogue!
Alex: it didn't give me a heart attack for a change
20 sec: 😂😂😂
that kings jersey is ultra fresh
Lmao 😂
I think that's a Red Hot Chili Peppers shirt
peepoClown
LimeWire2000 lol 4chan and reddit are for losers. To think I’d visit that hell hole
@@yewstew8312 Reddit has been an SJW hellhole for about 7 years now
I used to be a regular visitor and commenter there
It's sad really
This album is legendary
Imagine reacting to "toxicity" twice and not even once at "Aerials" .....
I thought I was the only one
Aerials is decent this is much better
Yo. .all three of us?
And Roulette!
@@blazinbuc99 decent?? Aerials is amazing
When Serj sings it's like I'm listening to some Gods prophet.
Ane when he screams its like I'm listen to a death metal band... like the song
Mind, darts,
His voice makes plants grow faster.
His voice can split the sea for metal heads to pass into the promised land
The fact that system of down originated from middle east makes this much better
I’m pretty sure the “seeds” he’s talking about are either a reference to “morning glory” seeds, which contain LSA, a compound very similar to LSD which was responsible (scholars believe) for the Salem Witch trials. This is backed up by the lines following these lyrics, “the toxicity of our city, of our city...” . There’s also psychedelic imagery used.
Another possible interpretation is that the seeds are the ideas planted into the heads of our youth and the mass population to get them to be more submissive, which acts as a toxic substance that becomes a part of our daily diets-as our diet’s are not just what we eat, but what we hear, see, read, and think about.
Very deep song, and deep band. That entire album is amazing.
It's also extremely popular in Armenia to eat seeds as a pass time activity.
FortySix& TooSober 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣
@@LtDan-rk4si the Nazis drank water and breathed air, too.
Could also be eating poppy seeds as they contain opium, albeit on a small scale
i think they mean children
ALEX HEFNER SHOULD REACT TO SYSTEM OF A DOWN SPIDERS
Why are you screaming?
@@timolampe it's metal
@@timolampe, how's that screaming
Miau
WHY NOT SLIPKNOT SPIDERS
System of a Down
Cigaro and vicinity of obscenity
Ryan Kelly 22 (STUDENT) why not?
Yessss
@Ryan Kelly 22 (STUDENT) dislike earned
Moral of the story: This homie likes seeds.
Hahahahahahahahaha
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha I knew I wasn't the only oooonnneeee thinking it!!!
As I Lay Dying: Nothing Left. Then a follow up reaction of As I Lay Dying: The Sound of Truth. The videos go together and are amazing!
Then follow up with As I Lay Dying: Through Struggle.
This needs to happen! Common Alex this guy has been requesting this since like...ever!! Lol
I don't know about sound of truth but nothing left is one of metalcore's most iconic songs and although I think they have fell off, Nothing Left is a must listen and for fig's sake Alex this has been requested for 2 years and almost literally on all videos.
@oO{ Dawabo }Oo he finally watched Nothing Left. It took me over 2 years of requesting on every video. Still waiting on the second half though
Keep up the work always supporting you man.
* Alex keeps pressing the volume up button* "why wont the volume get louder" lmfao 😂😂😂 I feel that pain all the time.
"He's doing it for the views and the money..."
Well, duh... he's a UA-camr that's what he does and that's a great reason to do it!
LOL Yes true
I do appreciate it though, a lot of people these days don't listen to an album entirely. So listening it to the entire album can change your opinions.
He's earning like 0 Dollars tho
12 btw
why is the balance wayy off when he talks? All left side....
i think he messed something up in editing
Now i know why i can't hear him xD
I thought it was just me. Glad to see it isn't.
Well, it means you can hear the music in one ear and him in the other I guess?
Just posted then deleted my post when I read this... at least I'm not alone in the deaf to Alex in one ear syndrome
I've been waiting for this video!
Love all these SOAD reaction!!!!
I love it at the heaviest part "why won't it go louder?" I feel the same way
YO I read this comment right in the moment he said that
Bring me the horizon - "Dont go" for extra goosebumbs
i second this!
@@claudiovervloessem5336 I think world is not ready for that one, yet.
Yessss please
Death beds too 🥰
@@nicolamoir8839 nah lol
Glad to see your hand is healing well. It's good to revisit songs again. No worries. I'm not sure if I watched the first reaction video or not. I've watched many of your videos but just randomly. Probably should have started in order. Going to watch the other reaction.
Love your videos bro alex 🤘
This and Hybrid Theory are both albums that I can listen to beginning to end without wanting to skip a single song.
Surprised this wasn’t one of your first reaction videos too System Of A Down, maybe the most iconic song by them. Ride The Wings Of Pestilence by From First To Last is a song I think you’d like.
Oh man, that was my jam back in the day.
it was , he reacted to this a year ago
Yah. I had remembered that reaction in my head but I assumed that I was wrong and maybe he didn’t
Finally some love for From First to Last. Though I would vote note to self. Those drums tho...
@idk Anymore
Alex has done a Reaction to this song already,
he even mentions it @ the beginning of the video 0:37 -1:02. For 25 sec's he explains why he chose to do 'another' reaction to Toxicity!
Hey man I just wanted to say that chilling with you has been my pleasure for the passed year! Have a slamming day and keep being you bro! Awesome!
I'm glad to see you're a step further in the healing process! I'm about to start my physiotherapy studies, don't forget them exercises at some point...
This song, however, remains a ride, for sure!
React to System Of A Down's I-E-A-I-A-I-O next.
why
@@thelatenightgamer2624 cuz we need more saod reactions
@@sugmanutz but he will light up the sky
@@thelatenightgamer2624lmao fk u now I get it
@@sugmanutz eye eah io WHHHHHHHHYYYYYYY
Aw yeh it's finally here, Toxicity, can't wait to hear your reaction.
Also +1 for the Mudvayne - World So Cold, also listen to Cradle by them please, you're missing out, man, we mean it. They're not always hardcore like they were recording Dig. Like genuinely good artists as are so many of the songs and bands you've had requested. :D
Awesome reactions bro, been watching your vids for a couple of weeks already and just decided to subscribe, keep it up 🔥😎👍🏻🔥
I appreciate seeing you doing a re-reaction now that you’re more accustomed to the culture. Growing up I already loved this song but now that I’m more music enriched I appreciate it all the more myself.
Mudvayne - World So Cold. Full version, not the video version.
Nice request. Totally recommended.
Not Falling.
A lot of good Mudvayne to get into
Gotta respect the commitment here. Ive seen you comment this a LOT. keep trying and hopefully he’ll see it!!!!
@@cfhfan2000 Thanks man. It's one of Mudvayne's many masterpieces. Alex has gotta check it out. Has a whole lot of meaning to it.
Man this song is a masterpiece. Perhaps the best song on the album.
Great video man 👍
Kudos for you bro for listening to this joint cause you wanted and not just to please others.
hey i actually caught one of these on time for once lmao wassup
Wow, I'm early af. Please check out L'enfant sauvage or the gift of guilt by gojira please!!
Definitely YES
He needs to do THE ART OF DYING
@@demondrug7788 Flying Whales
The Heaviest Matter In the Universe
Oh GOJIRA... How I love them so
Great song man...a classic..🤘🏻
It sounds like a tempo change, but it’s not. It’s the time signature. The eighth note is constant throughout most of the song. That’s why I like this song. I think it’s super well written, music wise.
“Eating seeds is a pastime activity” I think it’s referring to prescription opioids, which are made from poppy seeds.
They aren't made from the seeds, it's the seed pods that are used.
Daniel Cadwell
That’s just semantics, I know they use the capsules but they are still seeds and full of seeds when you open them thus they are known as “seed pods”
or “seed capsules” it’s just my takeaway from it anyway I’m not saying it’s right. But he is talking about the “toxicity of our city” and his own ADHD (a disorder). And many children during the 90s were prescribed opioid medication to calm them down, also this was at the start of the “opioid crisis” in America where doctors would prescribe opioids for lots of different reasons, sometimes needlessly.
Alex: Didn't give me a heart attack right away
Me: snickering as i know what's about to happen...
Me too 🤣
my left ear enjoyd that a lot and is proud of you.
System of a down is amazing and rocking as hell all their songs are unique and awesome
You should react to Tech N9ne - Straight out the gate ft. Serj Tankian
Agreed🤘
That song is fucking awesome
Yes
Some a few weeks back asked for that song so I checked it out. Great song.
@@davidpark6845 that would be me 😉
Please react to more shinedown!

Cut the cord

State of my head
Get up!
We need the old shine down back tbh
KingtigerAce 233 true
Agree @ashley
I got the notification for this video and was honestly in disbelief that you haven't already reacted to it lol
wait
Goddamn goosebumps!
I went nuts for a moment. I thought something terrible happened to my earbuds.
React to norma jean: sword in mouth fire eyes
And August Burns Red
Yesss!!!!! Please do it!!!
That's a band I haven't heard in a long while.
Tbh, I'd rather him listen to old Norma Jean, but any Norma Jean is fine by me.
Does Norma Jean still exist? :O
Love these videos. Good song.
Serj's voice is soothing and unique, and meanwhile has an authority...well done, you described perfectly why I'm in love with his voice since I was 14.
React to: Chunk! No, Captain Chunk! - In Friends We Trust
Soad I-e-a-i-a-i-o
That jump right there 😂😂😂🤣🤣
As soon as you said it... I knew you were gonna jump hahaha 😂. Love the channel. Big fan
Love the Chili Peppers shirt….react to them at Slane Castle…”By The Way”, please.
Parallel universe! That solo OMFG! John MF Frusciante!
When Frusciante plays with the Peppers, it's magic.
I was at Slane Castle!!
DEVILDRIVER
clouds over california, still my favourite from them
How about meet the wretched live at download
Oh well? This is my 5,000th reaction to this song since it was my anthem song on my Myspace page, and still listen to it while eating my lunchable
Thanks for the react bro. Glad u enjoyed the album so much. Now maybe u understand why system fans are so dedicated. They put their stamp on the world. I’m back by the way! Good to be watching u again.
Are you gonna re-do "Chop Suey" as well? Id love to see your reaction now that you're used to System of a down. When you first did Chop suey i think it was your first time hearing them so you were a little sketched out lol to say the least ha
He should react to Mesmerize after he’s done with Toxicity. That’s their best album, imo.
No First album is the best!
This was one of the first heavy metal songs I ever heard way back when I was like 6-7 and it still kicks ass \m/>.
That breakdown live in the pit is fuckin amazing!
Hey Alex, I'm still waiting for the Break In reaction that you promised me. Maybe you might take ONE day off for something a little different?
0_0 👍
👍
React to System of a Down question!
I remember the channel "Holistic Songwriting" describing their sound as like being in the middle of a riot. I think the reason they keep scaring you with the sudden noise and the reason they're so hard to pin down the timing for is that they made their music as a reflection of life that comes at you when you're not ready. You don't really get to choose when politics suddenly matters for your life, when you'll meet someone sexy, etc.
Good to see your hand is healing. 🙏😎
Check out SOAD: Aerials if you haven't already.
React to halestorm uncomfortable
👍
Brazil love you Alex❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
One of my favorite songs EVER 🖤 🙌🏽
React system of a down-violent pornography
Papa roach Last resort !!!
Great stuff man. Technical note to help ya out. im sure your aware, but wanted to give ya an audience note.
You had your voice on one channel in the left ear. maybe it was a test, but i think there was nothing wrong with keeping it mono and centered.
Yeah! Hold the fuck up indeed! One of their most popular songs! Also, tell me about it! For a change, this song didn’t start off by scaring me either and every time as the songs progress, they all start to progress like that! Keep it up with this album of the month journey during this ongoing month! Keep on rocking, bro!🎸🎸🎸
Hey Alex, can't hear you speak bro. I can hear everything else just fine. Just not you.
Itz in the left ear I said the same thing for a second
I hope you'll do chop suey and aerials too, I know you reacted to them in the past but those videos are blocked in my country. Much love, keep up the good work.
The title is accurate 🤣 glad to see your hand is developing well (:
Glad your hand is recovering! I think you'd also enjoy The Veer Union - "Slaves to the System". It's their new song, but they've got plenty of great ones, including, but not limited to "Living Not Alive", "Bitter End", and "Defying Gravity".
The only way to accurately headbang to SOAD is practice it like an art. WE listened to the albums over and over, the more you listen, the more you fall in.
Did you ever finish. 5 The Grey Chapter album? If so I need to go back and check because I don't remember seeing them.
FUCKEN YEAH, MATE...... Right after you said it didn't scare you 😂. Love your reviews, mate
I have a feeling that by the end of the year you will be at 1 million subs......I spoke it into existence ♥️♥️♥️ you deserve it buddy
I hope you’re right!! ❤️🤘🏼
I absolutely love this song so does my 8 year old daughter. Hope you are doing well Alex much love from Dalton GA
Make sure when you get to Aerials, you listen to the FULL/extended version. It's like 6 minutes long. I think you will enjoy it!
Hahaha the fucking jump scares man! Hilarious 😂
To head bang to SOAD you have to expect the unexpected, but knowing their songs is the best way.
Not sure you'll reply but I look forward to your videos I've been a little laxed lately due to stress n depression so I missed out on u saying what happened to your hand lol how your hand feeling
System of a down has crawled under my skin in 2004 and I never let them go ...
My fave band whole Galaxy
SOAD ❤️🤘🏻
I’m gonna lose my hearing by 40 listening to metal full blast every day but there’s no other way to do it haha good reaction
Mind - SOAD, that's a great song for refreshing your mind
is there a running game called "what is Alex playing on the tv in the background this time?" because its something i play every time i watch
you should check out some of the songs from the other albums aswell,
e.g. know, radio/video, cigaro, viscinity of obscenity, violent pronography etc..
Almost done. Cant wait for Aerials
