That's it. You just headbanged to a Whitechapel breakdown. Officially, you accomplished your full transformation into metalhead. I was here from the very first Slipknot reaction and I am proud.
This thread is the reason people turn away from metal. No one likes toxic scenes. I literally don't even go to metal shows or join any metal social media communities because if you're not "Trve Cvlt" or you listen to other genres people smear you for not liking what they like. Deathcore, metalcore, mainstream metal bands, etc., is still metal. And metal still remains one of the unfriendlist/unwelcoming music scenes i have ever formerly participated in. Buncha Varg dickriders.
Bozeman is my all time favourite deathcore vocalist. I used to call him death metal Eminem. He has insane pace and pronunciation. He always says he always trains to be as clear as possible.
next has to be X Japan for 2 huge reasons. 1_They are a legendary band and 2_ They were originally named X but they had to change that name because there was a punk rock band in the USA using that name so they turn to be X Japan and also 3_ Even the popular saying of the band is "We are X"
Any time someone wants me to show them a metal song I always show people Phil doing Unanswered at the Mitch Lucker memorial show. Hands down one of the gnarliest renditions of a song. Hha
Woah woah you forgot 2 1: Mark of the blade 2: Elitist ones (Lol 1 is just what got me into them 2 is my second favorite first would be when a demon defiles a witch)
Blood Eagle- Periphery Ok I know you just reacted to Periphery, but I really think you should give them a chance with this song. They released it earlier today and it's a ducking banger.
I literally turned my ps4 on and watch this on my sound system at home because white chapel =gods. Ive seen them 3 times and their live performance is amazing.
Hey Alex, its pretty known among whitechapel fans, that Phil Bozeman (the vocalist) is a big fan of rap and hip hop, and draws alot of his inspiration from there. there are multiple whitechapel songs where he is basically rapping while maintaining his growl. its pretty sick
So cool to see you decide on whitechapel. They've shaped me as a musician and I'm proud to wear a saw blade as the center piece of my right arm of my tattoos. Hope to see you try more!!
Where the band comes from is embedded in its DNA, and this message is what they convey on the first single, ‘The Saw is the Law.’ “ It’s just about what we do, who we are and what we devoted our lives to,” Bozeman said. “It’s sort of an ode to ourselves. If you look at it in a certain way, it does seem like it’s kind of pretentious. But we don’t think that we’re better than anyone else, but we’re proud of where we come from and we’re proud of what we’ve accomplished. That’s pretty much what that song kind of represents.”
You gotta check out "When a Demon Defiles a Witch" by Whitechapel. It's heavy but it also has some clean vocals as well. The song is about the lead singer, Phil's late mother. A lot of their music is about the hardships Phil had to go through while growing up. If you're interested look for some interviews with him and he talks about that and more.
You should check out Phil Bozeman (Whitechapel's vocalist) performing Suicide Silence's song "Unanswered". It's a live video, done at the Mitch Lucker Memorial Show, and it is nothing less than awesome
Forgot about this one and that is their first song, correct me if I am wrong, that features clean vocals in it. One hell of a moving ballad. Totally different than what one would come to expect from these guys but the song is surprisingly really good, I was impressed by that one
I seen them in my home town of Milton PA in 2008 @ the Pennsylvania Metal Festival. They were just starting out. Now they r 1 of the Giants in Extreme/Death Metal. Easily 1 of my favorite bands. Gonna go get their "SAW" tattoo after watching your video!
This song is a masterpiece ugh. I love how you have progressed and now understand growls and how they pair so well with the intensity of the music! I used to not fuck with heavy growling but now I can’t get enough:)) listen to this song to get motivated to workout!!
Now you totally have to check our bring me home ... not only does Phil have some of the best gutterals in the business, but he actually has a pretty fucking good singing voice
[X]: X-Japan - Art of Life (Live at Tokyo Dome 1993) All other suggestions with letter X cant improve this one song, its a whole experience to let it pass without checking it out
Yo it’s great to see where you’ve come from. The beginning of your journey you wouldn’t have given this band a second chance and now you’re all about it it’s awesome. You can sincerely appreciate them and what they’re about it’s so cool, props to you for diving in as deep as you have man keep it up 🤘🤘 and I’ll totally buy an Ozzy shirt if you can get them out
This is the first time I'm hearing whitechapel and I like it! In the past, you would have commented on the fact that you prefer songs to have a mixture of growling and melodic singing. The fact that you loved this song is evidence that you have taken the next step in your metal journey! Congrats
Why not "Art of Life"? The man has sat through quite a few epics already, all enthralled. :) Don't you think he can handle the piano solo? I think he would just fine - I mean that solo is more (emotionally charged) metal than a lot of simple riffage that passes for Metal nowadays...
Next up, Xandria =^^= symphonic metal👁 About band/song; Surprisingly, not bad. White Chapel gives me Meshuggah vibes. I like! You do tend to stick to a lot of deathcore/metalcore/hardcore bands. Perhaps try exploring other subgenres? Do like a Doom week, a Symphonic week etc. That would be a cool way to discover new bands you never expected to hear/like and help us listeners discover new bands as well!
A lot of Alex's community here on youtube is into those mentioned styles, he's getting loads of requests for them from his American base. By comparison, I don't think he has even done BLIND GUARDIAN yet - one of the more inspiring and unique bands on the European side on the pond. So there you go - fans of other metal sub-genres need to be more proactive on this channel. Simple. :) Edited: Btw, I support the suggestion to have "thematic weeks" after finishing up with the "alphabet".
I got to see you them live several years back (this is exile was there most recent album if that says anything) and it was one of the best shows I’ve ever seen
Officially a metal head with this one, of all the subgenres you’ve tapped into Death Metal is pretty much the most brutal while maintaining true musicianship 🤘🏼
Whitechapel best thing to come out of TN by the way that is our state flag and they just put a saw around it if you didnt know lol they use to play close to me and the drummer use to work at a zumies in a mall before blowing up becoming one of the most popular deathcore bands in the genre
![ABCs of Metal - [I] - IN FLAMES - "Take This Life" REACTION](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/O-mMq8qG4cY/mqdefault.jpg)

Nah, before he becomes an "official" metalhead, he needs some Cattle Decapitation and Anaal Nathrakh in his life.
In America you're laughed at. Gore not core.
Aranox *in Europe you'd be laughed at*
Thanks for confirming that Europe is full of Edgy Gatekeeping "Trv Kvlt"

When a demon defiles a witch please. That songs got everything.
YES
Agree, Alex please react to this song
Knoxville represent! Lead singer went to my high school lol
Wow
Powell sucks! Go Halls!!!!
@@york7201 Alcoa got you both by the balls.
I partied with them and hung out with Alex a lot a long time ago before Whitechapel in Johnson city.
The flag represents the Tennessee flag. East, Middle, and Weat Tennessee.
Bozeman is my all time favourite deathcore vocalist. I used to call him death metal Eminem. He has insane pace and pronunciation. He always says he always trains to be as clear as possible.
Their logo actually reflects the Tennessee state flag , with the 3 stars
I live an hour away from Knoxville (where they are from)
@@metaldeath7952 Same here
Fuck Tennessee, htown
@@metaldeath7952 Bristol here.
I'm glad to live 3 hours away from Knoxville
next has to be X Japan for 2 huge reasons.
1_They are a legendary band and
2_ They were originally named X but they had to change that name because there was a punk rock band in the USA using that name so they turn to be X Japan and also
3_ Even the popular saying of the band is "We are X"
Suggesting "Art of Life" (Live at Tokyo Dome), cause its simply the best choice for letter X
Good Choice! Fucking love Whitechapel! This is relatively newer from there discography. Their older stuff is way more brutal!
Any time someone wants me to show them a metal song I always show people Phil doing Unanswered at the Mitch Lucker memorial show. Hands down one of the gnarliest renditions of a song. Hha
@@_PatG_ Hell yeah that is pure brutality
Possession would have been good too
breeding violence is wicked, also the feat bozeman with the tony danza tapdance extravaganzza is hard as it gets
@@AlphaXbot Agreed about Possession!
“Black Bear”, “I, Dementia”, “When A Demon Defiles A Witch”, and “Hickory Creek” r absolute saw classics
Woah woah you forgot 2
1: Mark of the blade
2: Elitist ones
(Lol 1 is just what got me into them 2 is my second favorite first would be when a demon defiles a witch)
Woah woah woah woah where's anticure and lost boy
Ummm, no Possession or This is Exile?
Bring me home
Blood Eagle- Periphery
Ok I know you just reacted to Periphery, but I really think you should give them a chance with this song. They released it earlier today and it's a ducking banger.
Dude its next level for them!! Shit has been on repeat allllll day
It really is
I still think for someone barely getting into periphery he should listen to like flatline or prayer position, something from p3
Fuck yeah
Mikey Medina hmmm yeah you may be right
I love my Whitechapel. Seen them live, best band ever seen!!!
I have a video of them playing in Knoxville. Dope ass show
Alex Is Getting Closer to Being a Death Metalhead
I literally turned my ps4 on and watch this on my sound system at home because white chapel =gods. Ive seen them 3 times and their live performance is amazing.
Awesome! Finally you reacted to Whitechapel! Next please do This is Exile, Possession, or I Dementia.
This is Exile.. that's where it's at!! ;) Jokes aside Whitechapel is just awesome.
For "Y" - Yngwie J. Malmsteen - Rising Force (Live in Leningrad, 1989)
*Before Power Metal was called that, there was this :)*
X-Japan Kurenai Last Live!!!!
Phil Bozeman's vocals are fucking GNARLY. Look at his cover he did of Unanswered by Suicide Silence during the Mitch Lucker memorial concert
Im wearing a whitechapel shirt right now. Hahaha. Good pick buddy! Try out elitist ones.
Typing this out while on my way to work also wearing a whitechapel shirt lol
Whitechapel hoodie cause its cold as hell in my house
Finally!!! My favorite band and you liked it so I’m happy AF!!! Thanks brother!!

Hi Alex... I've got a video you have to react to... React to "Screaming doesn't take any talent" by Jared Dines
And then Alex needs to try!
"Oh sure thing my guy"
"Well since you asked so nicely"

@TheRandomSpectator "oh boy, I can sure try"

How have I lived in Knoxville my entire life and been a fan of this band for a couple years now and NOT known where they were from??? That's cool af.
[X] XANDRIA - Call Of Destiny

This has to be the hardest thing you've listened to and loved 😃 so happy you dug this band 👍👍👍
Whitechapel is one of my top favorite. This song is fuckin badass. It's a heavy hitter. Phils vocals are beast mode.
Please...react to "Bring me home". It's a beautiful song, by Whitechapel. Thank You!
Forgot about this one and that is their first song, correct me if I am wrong, that features clean vocals in it. One hell of a moving ballad. Totally different than what one would come to expect from these guys but the song is surprisingly really good, I was impressed by that one
@@seanmurry5349 Also, a very intimate ballad that Phil sings great
I seen them in my home town of Milton PA in 2008 @ the Pennsylvania Metal Festival. They were just starting out. Now they r 1 of the Giants in Extreme/Death Metal. Easily 1 of my favorite bands. Gonna go get their "SAW" tattoo after watching your video!
Whitechapel are some of the early pioneers of deathcore. I've always thought this song was their recognition of that. One of the best in the business
Bro, I have to admit, I'm a tad fazed that you didn't pick White Zombie.
Love you anyways.
Try "electric head" in your UA-cam search bar, hombra
*hombre. Autocorrect
Few years ago saw them touring for this album. Got vip got to meet them. Awesome dudes.
This song is a masterpiece ugh. I love how you have progressed and now understand growls and how they pair so well with the intensity of the music! I used to not fuck with heavy growling but now I can’t get enough:)) listen to this song to get motivated to workout!!
"Zyklon - An Eclectic Manner" For letter Z!
Hammer Revelation!
What a great tune. Love Whitechapel!!!!
This is an okay representation of Whitechapel, first two albums are great.
Definitely a band you need to see live!! Go see them!!!
ok time for some early JFAC now
THANK YOU FOR THIS!!!! Finally 🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼
X Japan - X or Kurenai

Now you totally have to check our bring me home ... not only does Phil have some of the best gutterals in the business, but he actually has a pretty fucking good singing voice

Absolute truth has been spoken. :)))
Hell yeah, band from my hometown. Knoxville, Tennessee baby!
X. XJAPAN!!! song I.V this guys are the iron maiden of Asia.
There from Tennesse dipshit
X Japan is not from Tennessee. Now you look dumber.
Kurenai would also be a great introduction to the band
@@Volunteerfan8082 *They're... dipshit.
Oh no, Kurenai, last live.
"Elitist ones" from whitechapel is also awesome :) cool reaction vidéo dude :p
Ok since you on some deathcore
Shadow of intent the battle of magniot sphere
I fucking love this song and whitechapel straight from my home state Tennessee, one of the greatest deathcore band in the game
Sadly it didn’t become WT. I just continue hoping that you will react to them one day 😅 Love your videos anyways 🤗🤗🤩🥳😍
Well that's about time you react to whitechapel :) glad you enjoyed them! Next do "our endless war" or "the darkest day of man"
I love me some Whitechapel jam out to them everyday
Damn... should do Within Temptation sometime too. Really good band.
Our Solemn Hour or The Heart of Everything
Yo it’s great to see where you’ve come from. The beginning of your journey you wouldn’t have given this band a second chance and now you’re all about it it’s awesome.

Art of Life (Live at Tokyo Dome)
Kurenai Last live (for the crowd singing along omg)
Whitechapel, and this song especially, is the first extreme metal band I've liked🤘
mate don't forget that X is for X-Japan - Dahlia or Rusty Nail....
Why not "Art of Life"? The man has sat through quite a few epics already, all enthralled. :) Don't you think he can handle the piano solo? I think he would just fine - I mean that solo is more (emotionally charged) metal than a lot of simple riffage that passes for Metal nowadays...
FINALY!!
I have asked so many times and it's finaly here!!!
THANK YOU

Positive for you, Whitechapel's vocalist, Phil Bozeman, has hip-hop influence in his vocals such as the fast parts
I was expecting something like Whitin Temptation, maybe "And we run" with Xzibit. You should try it c:
Sr Joe I was hoping for Within Temptation too....I feel he would have fallen in love
Up
About time! Ive been waiting for this!!
For the letter X:
Xandria - Nightfall
Whitechapel- Bring Me Home I’m 100% confident you’ll love it
For the letter X may I recommend Xandria - Valentine, very symphonic and powerful so you should enjoy it a lot.
I saw them live twice, they are so amazing and full of energy ❤️
One of my favorite bands right here these guys are dope and the vocalist has insane lows
I love WHITECHAPEL, wish I could give you a million likes on this.
*X for "Xandria - Nightfall"*
As a Tennessee boy who loves Metal, Whitechapel does us proud, just wish they were from Nashville like me lol

Whitechapel is fucking awesome. Phil Bozeman is a super cool dude, he’s the vocalist for Whitechapel.
Xandria’s Nightfall
CONGRATS! You're a metalheads now
It’s a birthright to check out his tribute cover for the late Mitch Lucker
