We must be the same age. Slightly different faves, but still. It’s taken me up until the last year or so (and u actually helped with it) to give punk more of a chance and respect.
Learn generation's millennials grew up in the 90s not boomers
I'm almost 39 and Sabotage by the Bestie Boys was and still is a great song with an iconic music video
Well from being subscribed to the React channel Lucas usually goes towards the more stereotypical music you would associate with gay people
@@Jamessmith-xk3fh Wait, who the fuck is Lucas??? And is it all 90’s and 00’s female pop shit? That’s the genre I usually associate them with
One time my buddy and I were playing CoD zombies and we got a kid as a team mate. We asked him what music he liked and he said "classic rock". We asked what bands he said "Nirvana". That's when I knew the specter of death was looming over me.
Dude have you not listened to the "Classic Rock" radio stations for the last 10-15 years? They've been playing Nirvana on those stations for that long now. I knew my 90's mainstays weren't far behind once I started hearing U2 and REM on the stations that played Blue Oyster Cult and Motley Crue. Getting old is...well, getting old.
I would have had an actual stroke if that happened to me.
basically anything (at least) 20 years old is Classic Rock.
Although nirvana is classed as grunge it is still also “classic rock” so just be careful what u post bro 😉
@@thrashinwebster yeah, the Classic Rock MIlitia might have a word about it
The Beatles are my favorite 90s hip-hop group.
"Cant stand up
Im sure your fed up" yeah theyre the best
Same
The Beatles weren't hip hop.. they were crabcore country
I thought they were black metal
I actually prefer the Stones, they're much more gangster than the Beatles 😂
The kid that knows all the songs, we all know it's because he grew up singing them with his mom. And I think it's kind of cute.
he also has a good voice
He's got good parents for sure
This was me and my mom til she found a man. Then mom's little boy was just an obstacle to her happiness. My love of music is cause of my mom for sure! I'm going to pretend we still have that.
Big true, I know entirely too many Simon and garfunkle songs because my mom loved them.
Next up: Gen X know NOTHING about 50's Bebop.
The disrespect!!
@@FinnMckentyPRMBA Kids these days, with their rock and metal. They havent even heard of Dizzy Gillespie.
@@ericpeterson9110 Damn teens, with their Romantic era music and chromatic scales. I bet they cant even hum Mass in A-flat major by Schubert.
Next up: ancient babylonians DONT KNOW the stone age classics 😱😱😱😱
@@shelbyspeaks3287 Bone flutes? Shakers?What’s wrong with the old stick and rock bashing music? Can’t beat the classics like “rock hit rock” and “stamp while grunting and slapping floor”. Upper Paleolithic people don’t know what they are missing out on.
“Is this RHCP?” thats an even bigger burn than that child knows 😂
He doesn’t even know 😂
I laughed so hard on this line, it sounded almost exactly like a very similar line from Beavis and Butt-Head
Could've been worse, like Mr. Bungle being called RHCP.
Finny boy really dropping the "im a dad" bomb at every opportunity and it's ADORABLE! Congrats daddio!
Right? I totally picked up on that, also. How fun.
Lucas is one of those kids that takes years to accept you as his mother's new husband
No, Jeffrey, I do not want to throw the football.
I’m not trying to be his dad, just his friend 😢
@@FinnMckentyPRMBA I'm sure Lucas definitely wants a daddy lol
@infidel mat not every gay person has daddy issues
@@xdeftonesx9167 settle down there champ, its called a joke.
I was born in '96 and grew up on 80s music my mom loved. In my teens I started rejecting it cause I only listened to metal. But then I fell back in love with it when my taste matured in my 20s.
Aww story of my life. Same with my dad and 70s folkrock lol
Basically same! I was born in 97 and grew up on 30s-80s music with my parents ranging from doo wop, jazz, rockabilly, Motown, into all stages of rock before the 90s (my brother got me into 90s and early 00s rock) but by teens got into death metal, sludge and really into anything with growling because I hit an emo phase- then hit into a huge edm phase from the 90s-early 10s edm, and rejected the old music but now that I'm in my 20s I almost only listen to 50s-80s rock with a sprinkling of 90s to current music sprinkled in, it's funny how much more I appreciate the music that I grew up on.
Don't worry, guys, I asked him
Jaxson nailed it when he said "it's something you hear in passing" that statement covers the entire foo fighters catalog
I would like a "teenage metalheads reacts to 90's metal songs". At the same time, maybe in the sub culture they already heard most of those songs. Do they do that now? I remember when I was 15 years old; around 2004, It was "mandatory" to know the big old bands that initiated the genre.
And all the legacy bands sounded/sound terrible and I rather stuck with Linkin Park and the likes ;)
Until this day I cant listen to most of the pre 90's metal because the production sounds so crappy xD
(Luckily, bands like Exodus or Testament also put out some good new releases.)
My oldest(10) came up to me the other day and asked
“have u heard of the band whitechapel?”
He had found my old Ipod and I could not of been prouder
Yeah, Finn has to find a way to make jokes and that’s his way of doing it for these, but as a fellow zoomer, that kid is kind of an asshole
It better be "This Is Exile" or "Kin" lol
@@maynarddrivesfast804 this is exile, and the somatic defilement were what was on it lol
@@OregonianPlinking nice
And his life will never be the same.
It seems Finn is mixing up pure negativity with being picky.
Yeah lucas looks like a total jerk. The kinda person you show something you did and he's like "yea pschht i did that like 5 times already, piece of cake"
Totally’ if he mentioned Lucas’ name anymore than he did it would almost seem like he had a really dodgy attraction to him…..😂
I don't take his takes very seriously. As a millinial who remembers the participation trophy bs etc WE were having shoved down OUR throats during our coming of age, I don't understand holding an era or taste (90's rock) that we are familiar with over someone else's head from a different generation with their own unique coming of age, and expecting them to like it exactly the way and as much and for all the same reasons as ourselves. And that's the gist I get from some of his videos imo.
I love The Offspring, but "Pretty Fly" was a tragedy
A great song*
The fact that these kids knew most of the songs is testament to the songwriting. Only bangers.
My favorite part of the epic music video by faith no more is that mike Paton is wearing a mr.bungle shirt.
I’d say Pear Jam is more dad rock than Foo Fighters 🚬
PJ is definitely dad rock, but foo fighters are the reigning kings, because they were dad rock from day 1. Pre foo fighters we had nirvana. Foo fighters was a deliberate and successful attempt to be adult contemporary nirvana. PJ was, at least at the beginning, a bunch of young guys trying to do something new.
Pear Jam sounds nice
@@elosoguapo8137 I can see that, I never felt like PJ is making music for dads, they never did a beer commercial come on. Dadrock is kind of a slur sometimes, just because someone is 40-60 years old doesn't mean its dadrock, they might be just middle aged, we all get old.
@@goldengrill769 as a 47 year old, I agree that age isn’t the primary thing that gets you the dad rock title. Like “hair metal” the term dad rock is a bit pejorative and retroactive, but it also exists for a reason. When we reflect on musical trends and styles, some music ages better than others. The reason a dad type guy is into PJ is that he grew up listening to it and still likes it, but the music hasn’t aged too well and so younger people tend to reject it. Compare that with Alice In Chains or nirvana and these are bands with songs that have aged well and as such are embraced by a younger audience, not just the generation that grew up with it.
Elvis was my Dad's Rock.
Hearing you talk about Faith No More being corny gave me a video idea(s) for you:
Great songs that were ruined by the video.
Bad songs that are acceptable due to a great video.
Ah the 90s when every big movie also had to have a big song.
“These day you become a they/them to rebel we used to wear all black and have spikey hair”
As a GenX dad I have zero expectations that my kids know the music I listened to growing up. I couldn’t have been any good at this with my dad’s 50s music so why would I be offended that they don’t know my music.
Yeah, it's silly and childish to expect children to listen to music decades before they were even thought of. Unless your parents force you to listen to what they listen to, you're not going to get the exposure to know all of these things. I wonder how much this guys knows about 50s and 60s music?
Love seeing you bring up being a dad now. Big congrats on becoming a father Finn. It's awesome seeing you so proud and stoked about it.
Thank you!
I got to see Taylor play drum with Alanis back in the 90's. He was the best part of the show.
Foo Fighters first 2 albums (3rd to a lesser degree) were part of the soundtrack of my mid teen years. I had just picked up the guitar a couple years prior and FF songs taught me a LOT of technique.
That’s a fair point’ I’ve been a session drummer for the last 20 years’ and have played with some well known musicians’ but I love playing the guitar’ and I have the same opinion that learning early FF songs helped teach me different technique and things like that on the guitar’ also the deftones and tool were a big help with that aswell’ I 42 now ✌️🙌🔥💪🎸
Super funny commentary, makes the video worth watching. Thanks Finn
I'm Generation X, and I know and love a wide variety of music from numerous eras. I go from some classical music, swing jazz, 50s rock and roll, classic heavy metal and thrash, late 70s to mid 80s pop and rock, 80s and early 90s country, and traditional gospel hymns.
As a Gen Z myself, we are greatly misrepresented in these videos, I swear these companies must be in big cities where they choose the absolute dumbest possible kids for videos
I love your channel, just discovered it, and I’ve been watching non stop. And I’m just now realizing you were in the beginning of that Magnolia Park video. Very cool! Keep up the great work, as a metal fan, I appreciate how much you have taught me!
Thank you!
Become one of us lol
I rebel against the older generation by embracing all the music they thought was cringe while they were in highschool.
Well, enjoy your Barry Manilow then...
The first home phone I remember having in our house was a rotary phone that my parents leased from Southwestern Bell and never returned. It was heavy enough to be considered a deadly weapon if wielded correctly.
Dude "Camera Joe" totally sounds like an early 90s band hahaha
Omg Roxette was so loved in South Africa. Such iconic school dance songs. The Swedes produced some prime pop groups.
so I'm at a Social D show at the Hollywood Palladium abt 10 yrs ago & the mosh pit is going around & around and this kid crashes into me & my gf, and he gets his elbows up and he looks up at me, and he goes "oh, excuse me sir' .. damn I'm old
I can't hear Kiss From A Rose without thinking of Jack Black singing it on American Idol
Brings a smile to my face every day when my daughter tells me to turn of my 90s music.
I loved this video it made laugh a lot.
I'm a Gen'Zer. (Born in 2000). My parents are both Gen X. Growing up, I was pretty sheltered from anything that was trending. The only music I seemed to know was 90s music for majority of my childhood. I was into bands like Nirvana, Green Day, The Flaming Lips, They Might Be Giants, just a ton of bands from the grunge era. Even my friends listened to 90s rap. I was pretty sheltered given I never even really watched TV much. I never really knew of anything trending until my younger sister got older and would always look up newer artists on UA-cam. I had NO idea who justin bieber was when he was first getting popular. I first heard his name from my parents talking about him. After finding out about who all of these newer 2010s "artists" were, I still couldn't manage to get into any of them. I HAVE discovered many new artists along the way. But their styles are STILL within the boundaries of 90s grunge/indie/alternative. All independent artists too. 😂
The rattling hi-hats of trap music hurt my ears, and the pop music just isn't gritty enough for me. I'll forever remain a 90s head I guess. I just can't seem to get into anything people my age like. I have it a chance for a bit. It didn't last. 😢😅
We were born the same year man great vid!
"Look at that Final Fantasy hair"
That killed me man. So on point.
The 90s flashback is turning into a iconic singer of a talented and popular musician
“This sounds like it’s on my dad’s playlist” 😂😭 ain’t that the truth. My dad has Korn, slipknot, disturbed, ffdp, beastie boys, ratm, staind, pantera, powerman 5000, rob/white zombie and many many more on his playlist so this is beyond accurate. I also made my own playlist of rock/metal with some 90s/2000s rap in it also
Based
Hey Finn, have you ever watched on livestream the videos “do they know? 2000s pop punk”? If not, would be a great content! Nice video btw
Love Finn's sarcasm lol
Our local "Alternative" radio station still plays these songs daily.
I did not even know that was a Foo Fighters song until yesterday.
20:45 Kiss from a Rose is a great tune... Just ask Rick Beato!
Dissing Epic by Faith No More is a sin. Shocked Finn does not care for FNM. They are iconic and heavily influential to many current bands today.
Alanis Morrisette started her career as a child actress who appeared on Nick on the tv show You Can't Do That On Television in the 80s. And yes, she got slimmed in the show.
To be fair, many of these songs are still being played on the radio along side with the newer ones. When Dolores of The Cranberries died, and Marie from Roxette died? Their songs were played in tribute on so many stations including newer stuff.
As for Foo Fighters, The Cranberries, Goo Goo Dolls and the likes? they are still being played on the rock stations today including their newer stuff. Of course Zombie was covered that was a massive hit recently as well.
As for the 90s? Even country artists was being played along with MC Hammer, Envogue, Whitney Houston, Faith No More, Def Leppard and all of them. The top 40 radio stations was meant to be like for the mainstream charts was going back to the way it used to be in the late 40s to 1982 when country songs were representative. Garth Brooks's several songs, Mary Chapin Carpenter's Passionate Kisses, Faith Hill's This Kiss, Vince Gill, Smokin' Armadillos, Billy Ray Cyrus Achy Breaky Heart, Little Texas's Go Bless Texas, Restless Heart, Blackhawk's Every Once In Awhile, Lonestar's Amazed, etc. I wish the the mainstream top 40 pop charts go back and be more representative today than they are back then.
Also @Finn Mckinstry ❤❤ your videos. Your like my blueprint. Truly appreciate what you do. Also ❤ the irony of how meta we are when we watch reaction videos of reaction videos😂😂😂. But give the people what they want
Dawg, Sabotage is built on one of the sickest bass riffs ever created!
Yeah but Dodgers hat thinks its “corny”. Jaxson is cooler than Dodgers hat.
Zombie by the Cranberries is huge in Chiang Mai, Thailand. It's still one of the most famous foreign rock songs here. I can't explain why.
Justifying not knowing a song because it was release before you born is a weak argument. I was born in the late 80s and pretty much everyone in my generation is aware of songs by The Beatles, The Who, The Stones, ABBA etc etc.
No, it actually isn't. Those songs were international smash hits, these songs absolutely are not on the same level as those and are mostly only hits in North America. Get your head out of the clouds. Imagine putting ANY of these songs on the same level as The Beatles and The Rolling Stones. Even Zombie wasn't on the same level of international success as the songs from the bands you are listing.
@@kugetsu congrats, you ENTIRELY missed the point.
@@kugetsu Are you for real? Zombie. From the Irish band The Cranberries. In Europe.
I've lived in both Australia, Ireland and UK, and I guarantee they were big everywhere and played all the time on the radio and MTV when they came out. You are just wrong.
"What is this, Garbage?"
Oh jeez, just imagining the amount of people who don't know Garbage was a band. 😂
Was?they're still making music
Speaking as a decade younger gen y dad, Finn's need to inspire the next generation with their own rebellious musical interests is top tier dad goals and I can't wait to carry that spirit forward
I rebeled againts my parents love of country but i think eventually you come back around. Nostalgia is a hell of a drug
I don’t know why, but that Roxette song was on my dad’s early 90s Christmas compilation CD. He’d play it from to back every Christmas
Putting Jaxon and Lucas together was such a funny move
I think an interesting thing to see on this video is how much more well-known and influential pop, R&B, and Hip-Hop artists from that time are than Rock artists.
When I was a teenager in 2003, I was mildly familiar with Kiss from a Rose, but I would have known the rock songs right away. But these kids who were born around then know Missy Elliot or Seal, and don't know the Foo Fighters or Faith No More.
The one artifact “90s teens” today don’t have that we actual 90s kids had back then was our collections of ‘Pogs and Slammers’ such a fun game/hobby that no one ever played, still recall my favorite ones 😂😊
There's only three ways you know kiss from a rose nowadays. Either you had a family member show you the song, the episode of iasip the gang fights for the troops, or you heard Dan avidan sing it. There's no other option
Neverending story
Dan and SGBs version is pretty good.
@@jsan2548 I remember it started when Dan sung it while putting together ikea furniture.
Batman forever
@@zenonella He and Ross’ “Girl In the Tower” is GOATed as well.
Damn Finn's content is top tier. I think FInn is becoming my favorite UA-camr lol.
Not sure if it was mentioned, but Zombie was a massive cover from Bad Wolves. It was Octane's song of the year whenever it came out, so it was kind of everywhere. Probably why the kids know it.
Was a great cover too!
Great cover except ruined by the modern overpolished production the and auto-tune. Something that that plagues much of modern rock. Really goes against what rock is about
If you go to any jobsite in America there’s a 60% chance you’ll hear Zombie atleast once
Finn you saying why is it on a Batman soundtrack is something I’ve been asking myself for years it haunts me. However the obscurity of that makes the song way better
Fun fact when I brought my house in 2011 I found one of these telefons with that dial disc on the floor in one room. Later while renovating I found also the 🪦of the last owners mothers in the basement😂😂
I'm at that age where the shit i grew up with is played at the supermarket... excuse me, my hip just broke
Bad Wolves covered Zombie by the Cranberries a few years ago. I could understand them knowing it from that.
3:59 "That's Right People"
nice reference of FF Finn🔥👌🤘🤣
Finn devilishly smiling at kids roasting 90s music is the best
I think Finn mentioned being a gen X dad about half dozen times 😅
Someone’s stoked about being a new dad. Congrats Finn! Hope to join the fatherhood tribe myself soon.
The fact that they all hated offspring gives me hope for gen z.
I mean they hated that one song that's meant to be corny... But offspring tracks are great they have some bangers
Best thing about "Everlong" is that the music is universal
man I'm 29 and didn't know that seal song, never heard it in my life
Sick hat brother!
I didn't know that Roxette song, and it came out 2 days after I was born. I'm so ashamed.
I remember buying the Batman Forever soundtrack when it came out. Would sing kiss from a rose at full volume all the time.😂
I think because of how music is consumed these days, kids aren’t going to be as knowledgable of older music before their time.
When I was growing up in my younger childhood in the 90s, I had listened to a lot of music from the 70s and whatnot as that’s what was around when listening to the radio.
That isn’t how music is consumed anymore. It’s now hyper focused into people only listening to specific things and not branching out, not by choice, to other music to be exposed to.
Moving forward I think it will continue get worse with how narrow scopes of music consumed will be. That happens with movies I have noticed in regards to younger people today.
We used to be subjected to whatever was on radio or tv. No more.
There will always be enthusiasts who want to learn about older music. The younger generation is exposed to way more old music via soundtracks and pop culture.
Dude said ‘look at this Final Fantasy hair’ 😂😂😂
lucas and jackson are doing the classic "good cop bad cop"
Lucas is one of those kids whose playlist looks like
Taylor Swift
Taylor Swift
Taylor Swift
Taylor Swift
Cardi B
Taylor Swift

Taylor Swift
Taylor Swift
Than the Stranger things band then more Taylor Swift
@@ryanhedge3587 sorry but no, that stranger things song has too much scaaareaming
@@StuartHetzler Oh yeah way to much Scaraming and the kids these days would think that is death metal
Ahahaha
Not death metal... sca-reeemoooo
One upon a time, in a Thrasher mag a long, long time ago, (mid 1990's) they referred to the Foo Fighters as the Poo Bighters. I concur.
Did you know, that Tony Hawk landed a 900 in a contest in 1999? It was the x-games and I watched that in its entirety! I was 5 years old
Finn, is the Emo's not dead shirt supposed to be currently available? I don't see it. Or maybe I'm an idiot. Please advise lol.
I do giveaways every so often
I love Jacksons enthusiasm
Knowing you are from Snohomish, the skating behind 7-11 comment was real. Avenue D, man.
The 90s were so big that it required a fisheye lens to take it all in!!!
Jackson is actually 40 years old and is playing a teen.
How do you not know the intro to Iris?? That song was everywhere in the late 90’s
I love both generations of music
You gotta check out Hurts More Thinkin Bout It by Vince Nerone, takes you back to early 2000’s warped tour 🔥
This started off strong with the first 3, then dove headfirst off a cliff into utter garbage before climbing back up on the last 3.
I realize this is the equivalent of asking me about 70s rock as a late 90s teen. Lot of “I recognize the song but don’t know the band” is understandable.
Kid in the black and green is a time traveler.
Wow are Gen Z now that old that they call 90’s music their parents music?, my word.
As a Millennial my parents are Boomers who grew up with 70’s music.
Their guesses on who the Beastie Boys are... incredible. 10/10.
❤ the un educated honesty. I wish I had that back😂
MAKING MY WAY DOWNTOWN
you saying an 18 year old was born in 2005 just made my soul heart
Died at the Jaxon Enter Shikari line 😂
Man I remember watching react some 8 years ago and I'm tripping seeing this teenagers who I used to watch in Kids react. Time is not an illusion guys, help.
Inspirational 😊
