      @@defstrikem2743 - You must be young. UA-cam has drastically changed over the years. It used to be a place where independent creators could post their content (uncensored, at that) and get honest feedback from viewers. Now, it has turned into an overly censored, overly politicized corporate craphole. Nowadays, the independent creator doesn't stand a chance at gaining an audience or earning fair compensation for their hard work.

He wont be missed. If at all remembered it will be "the angry old man who shouted at the clouds" imagine achieving nothing in 11 years.

Any good metal is undoubtedly American, big shououts to Metallica, Slipknot, Limp Bizkit, Korn, Slayer etc i grew up on American Metal, it's undefeated.

    Hi coverkillernation, i wanted to send this message on private, but then i think to send this on public.
    I'm a guitarist for the Carnac band. For years we have been trying to make the music that we love and want to hear. A few years ago when you talked about us in a video I can say that I was blown up. It was probably one of the happiest moments of my life. A lot of people listened to our music and liked us. All this happened because of you. That's why you're totally different in my life. Now we're barely trying to run our group. You know, we're like new groups trying to move forward. But your contributions and support have always been a very different meaning to us. I'm so sorry you left UA-cam. But I believe you made the right choice for yourself. Your place for me and my group will always be very different. I'm sure it's important to you. In my opinion, those who are interested in all metal music and do not do it for money have one idea. It is to somehow influence the lives of others. You've had an impact on our lives and a lot of people. Thank you forever for that.

    I don't usually comment on something with so many comments, but I put this out hoping you read it at some point Mark. I've been watching you since 2011 I believe. You've been a big part in shaping my love for this music and helping me find bands and albums. You thanked us many times but we should thank you man.
    Me and you don't love the same sub genres of metal the same, but your opinions are always have seemed educated and thought out. I don't feel that with most music critics. I always looked forward to your opinions on albums. I'll miss that.
    I started a podcast recently and can definitely credit you as an inspiration to put myself out there and talk about this music we love so much. I hope in the future you start a pod or at least make the streams somewhat frequent cause I really hate to see you go. But if we don't hear much from you I hope that means you're taking care of yourself. Thanks for everything

    I found you through Linkin Park and after FINALLY seeing a metalhead who isn't harsh to all non-metal music, in this case Linkin Park, I liked you! You seemed to respect Linkin Park's work and Chester. You are real and honest.
    I'm not a metalhead and I probably don't like 95% of the metal bands you all like, but I respect you.
    Now enjoy life! Wishing you a healthy life. 😊

    One of the last of the old school, you always gave me a break from the corporate bullshit that UA-cam has become - you should be proud not to have become part of the shambles this once great platform has become and for cutting through the unjustified opinion suppression so prevalent in our music culture.

    You are the first content-creator I ever donated/reached out to, Mark. We have had some fantastic private exchanges. I wish you every good fortune, and like a lot of commenters, I selfishly wish you would reconsider retiring. Take care of YOU, that’s what matters in the end. Thank you for turning me on to dozens of bands whose pockets I fattened a little by purchasing their art. But most of all, thank you for *your* art. Great critique is an artform, and you have elevated it for over a decade. Be well, and please stay in touch.

    “So I say
    Thank you for the music;
    The songs I’m singing.
    Thanks for all the joy they’re bringing.
    Who can live without it, I ask in all honesty
    What would life be?
    Without a song or a dance what are we?
    So I say thank you for the music;
    For giving it to me.”
