SOAD's whole Toxicity album is fire from start to finish, period!
Anna McCloskey period, comma, exclamation points!!!!
Their first few albums all were.
It sure is
@@j.sargenthill9773 self titled ruled!...so did steal this album
damn right baby
I've listened to this song countless times and I haven't noticed just how the smooth that first transition is
"When you lose small mind you free your life"
That line right there is a great representation of what you guys are doing with metal. Opening up your minds to see whats the other side of the pond. Wonderful content guys!
Started watching you guys at 9 pm. It is now 3am and I can’t stoooooop ❤️❤️❤️
Relatable
That's funny... I'm doing the same thing you did right now.
Been there! These guys are the best. :D
Same......1 year later!!
Lol. Started around 9 and it's currently 3:22
Serj's vocals ALWAYS give me goosebumps!!
Tanay Prajapati
His Singing in this song and Toxicity song is much like classical indian musical singing
Hindu History and the solo on Spiders sounds like one that was written on a Sitar, which is a classical Indian instrument, too!
Tanay Prajapati
Yup, exactly..
Tanay Prajapati it’s because it’s raw. They didn’t edit his vocals....he’s such a rare bread of vocalist
Tanay Prajapati
Yes. Always
I LOVE when you guys notice the small things and it makes me realize, "Oh snap, that WAS a pretty dope transition. I totally had forgotten." It makes me revisit old songs and reminds me why I fell in love in the first place. Like with Megadeth's Holy Wars -- every time I listen to it now, it's like I'm back in the honeymoon phase I had with it 10 years ago :-))
Thanks Clem!!
Totally agreed. Those guys have both a huge sensitivity when the subject is music. They may not be experts, but they do 'understand' the songs, they capture even the small details that regular listeners (like me) need to listen several times to get.
That, included the funny interaction they have with each other, make them by far the best channel on this metal reacting "wave" that came out.
Yesssssss!!!!!!! I love this song for so many reasons... Serj's voice mainly being the main reason but I NEVER once thought about the musicality of the transition and how going from heavy to soft so seamlessly and beautifully adds SO MUCH to the song as a whole. Thank you Lost In Vegas for bringing that up and making me rethink things because of your different perspective. You guys have brought so many new thoughts so my mind in terms of music because of our different base views and backgrounds
Such a spot on, relatable comment!
“We drink from the river then we turn around and put up our walls”
One of my favourite lines from music. Glad you guys reacted to this.
Life is a waterfall,
Were one in the river,
And one again after the fall
Beautiful but I disagree, slightly. We're one in the river but not after the fall because the whole purpose of the fall is filter us all. Again, this is beautiful...a philosophy lesson with a kick ass soundtrack!
Life is a waterfall,
We drink from the river,
Then we turn around and put up our walls
@@nasaa2884 i think he's talking about life and death. thats how i always interpreted it. we all start life in the river but it is the waterfall like you said which filters us all out, we live separate lives experiences religions etc. but at the end were all the same, because regardless, we all die.
@@kevinwest2044 Yes, and that is what I'm referring to as well. We are all the same river (life) heading to an avoidable fall (death); but how we prepare & brace ourselves for the fall will determine where (a punishing rock or a nice and deep puddle) & how (a smooth Olympic-style dive or a painful belly-flop) we land after fall. We are all flowing in the same river but we have enough capabilities to shape our destiny & decide our ultimate destination.
Dude System Of A Down is such an amazing band, a lot of their songs have a great voice behind it.
So happy you guys reacted to this, I'm a little late to the party but I'd kill to hear more SOAD reactions... So many good tracks out there. Much love!
If you play CSGO check out Cruxal's channel. Amazing stuff.
their entire first album is like a mix of several music styles-a really akward circus show-and a metal masterpiece interconnected with regional folk music! Just freaking masterpiece!!!! Kreygasm!
Absolutely , or soldier Side :)~
Guys I fucking LOVE YOU! Greatings from Germany. Please listen to something from Machine Head. I would recommend Clenching the Fist of Dissent! You will fucking love it!!!!
I totally agree, you guys should listen to the first album. Sugar, Suite Pee, or Peephole are great energetic songs, while others like Spiders cann be more melancholic. Dig into this album :)
Been a SOAD fan most of my life. These guys made me realize how epic the transition into the chorus is
All I know about this song is from the "one in the river and one again after the fall" line, which comes from zen buddhist teachings, that we come from a pool of energy like a river, but as we come into life, we all go down the waterfall and separate into droplets and live our present physical life, then drop down to the bottom to become one with the river again. It might not be exactly from buddhist teachings, but I first heard the quote from the book "Zen Mind, Beginner Mind" by Shunryu Suzuki. It's also where I heard of the "small mind" concept also mentioned in the song.
namaste, shunryu's writings are amazing.
Yes it come from buddhism. Hinduism to be more precise.
Thats a great book brother
@@Sagar-qt6sg hindu kok buddha sih?
A perfect circle - Judith.
jon belcher best record of alllllll time!!!!!
jon belcher yes
Yes. This
thats what Im talking about
I keep asking for this hopefully this gets there attention!
System of a down was one of the bands that turned me on to metal. Great stuff guys.
I just feel like drinking beer and listening to metal with this guys 🤘🏻
*these
I Incine you’re such a douche
I hear ya. Cracking open a cold one with Lost In Vegas and rambling about metal is on the bucketlist.
Wine for me dude
@micah hall
Well technically he helped him by correcting him..
2:05 that's how you make a f@$king transition. Lmao. Loved it
I'm a white guy and in Iraq we used to have "song battles" where we would pit songs from our playlists against each other and others would decide a winner (we wired our mp3 players into the comm system on the tank). And that was how my squad mate (black guy) became obsessed with System of a Down.
TenTonNuke that’s a great story! And I bet he had converts when he showed people back home. That had to be a good album to get psyched for a mission doh
Hey man not sure if you're still there but from Ireland, god bless. Had a couple close family & friends from Boston serve in the early 2000's. What you do is beyond human, endless respect.
Wow, What a great story
That's amazing dude! 💪🏼✌🏼👍🏼RESPECT!
System of a Down is Anti War
It's actually quite amazing what you guys do. It brings me great joy to hear your reactions and enjoying the music I have been enjoying for years, it's almost like showing a friend new music and they just get lost into it, a sharing of one's self, if you will. Music is such a big part of my life and I am so happy I stumbled across your channel. Keep doing a fantastic job!
I couldn't agree more
I you like System of a down transitions listen to the songs, Hypnotize, Questions!, Innervision, Streamline and Spiders
And A.T.W.A ! I had to mention that to you :) Greetings from Iceland !
Haha damn, I never realised all my favourite SOAD songs had that in common
Questions! is one of the most underrated songs in the history of music
yes! spiders, man. spiders is amazing
Man, Innervision is hands down in my top 5 of all SOAD songs. It's so damn good.
As a rap fan, i get into a lot of metal. When there is a good beat in either genre it gets the head bobbing and the adrenaline flowing.
Respect from a metal fan who also listens to good rap
Finally a System of a Down reaction! Awesome stuff fellas! 👍 Knew George would give stank face to that riff. Great choice!!!
Toxicity is a amazing album, thank you for reacting to this beautiful song
This makes me so happy to see people immediately love something that's been a staple for me since I was a kid. Love this video; great reaction. Great content.
“ I don’t give a fug!!” You guys got me again with the hilariousness
Damn never realised how smooth the transition was!
H1NCH lol
literally got to that part as I read this I was like “what transition is he talking about?.. oh.”
I thonk that's the main reason I love watching reactions. People pick up on shit that flew past me.
@@kavtoM Yeah definitely why I love watching these dudes' react
That Toxicity album is on the short short list - one of the defining albums of its generation of metal. There is nothing else like it
Steven Harrison totally agree with that statement
they just ripped off faith no more/mr bungle tbh just like most nu metal bands did
Hell yeah, man. SOAD was basically my "Black Sabbath", the band which got me into metal as a whole and it was thanks to this album.
Oh ya SOAD's middle eastern and unusual rhythmic sound was a direct rip off of FNM & Mr. Bungle.... LOL funny.
WayoWayo exe hahahahaha i was thinking the same.... i forgot FNM's lead singer is also classically trained in opera singing😂😂
This is one of my favorite reaction videos on UA-cam. You guys are always so entertaining and honest. Keep up the great work.
You guys listen once and come up with such interesting insight on lyrical interpretation. I’ve listened to these songs for years, some decades, and haven’t even developed these interpretations. Bravo!! Keep it up, you’re both great!
Agreed. Thanks for your insight and analysis!
Rainbow-STARGAZER(Dio vocals)
System was one of the few bands that could transition people who only like rap/hip hop in to listening to Rock.
RyanFGNM you just explained my childhood haha
I'm late as hell but YESSSSSSS. There was no 100 times later. System hit my heart immediately. 13 years and they're still heavy in my playlists.
Now do Static X - Wisconsin Death Trip (plzkthxbai) 😁
Static x would be amazing. Sad we will never get anymore.
every woman, who like system, i would blind taking at home...^^
SOAD! oh yeah!
🤟
I subscribed before I even was 30 seconds into seeing y’all first video. Your knowledge and energy is wonderful.
Prog rock/metal is complex , so it's not that you're forcing yourself to like it by listening 100 times, but rather that you get to understand its' structure more, thus you can get into its' flow more and enjoy it more. It goes from a puzzle to a song because it just clicks in your mind after a certain point. U have "eureka" moments, and it's rewarding. THEN, once you're on the other side, you do feel some exclusivity, because you know that not everyone has the patience to eventually understand and enjoy. That group isn't the purpose though, just a consequence. Personally, i like a balance. I like for stuff to be both catchy AND complex; a difficult combo to pull off for sure. I hope this helps! Thanks guys. Keep doing u!!!
Completely agree. As a prog metal fan of 30 years, I love the bands that play both complex, yet catchy tunes.
Agreed.
Totally agree with this, my brother has been listening to Opeth for a very long time, but I never really got it. Then I sat down and really listened to them and after listening to the same record maybe 5-6 times it just clicked and I had that "eureka" moment, now they're my second favorite band ever (can't beat 'tallicas first 4 albums, sorry) and I just can't get enough. For me this is true for pretty much all music, I rarely love a song the first time I listen to it. But of course with more complex music like prog metal it can take abit longer to really get it.
From the bottom of my heart, thank you!!!!! As soon as I found you guys a couple months ago this was my first request! So thank you! That climax gets me every time.
absolutely. the first time i heard this song in high school, that climax damn near brought me to tears lol. epicness
you guys do great work, I find myself coming back and re-watching a lot of your videos. Thanks for doing what you do. Its been a while you should do some more System.
I had forgotten what a magnificent song this is. Thank you for reminding me with your inspiring reaction :) Surely going to listen some SOAD soon.
Bout time SOAD got some love up in here!
Joseph Stoner yup I'm so glad they did this. I want them to do byob or sugar next
"Question!" is a really good one to do, or "mind" from their self titled
dani cakes honestly mind is such an underrated song. They'll probably get weirded out/creeped out by the song. Which I really wanna see LOL
Rainbow - Stargazer (Dio on vocals). DO IT!!!
Heaven & Hell fuck yeah dude! Amazing song
Heaven & Hell I personally prefer A Light in the Black, but I think a good starting song might be Stand Up and Shout or Neon Knights.
Man IV sat watched ur videos for 3 hours now and y'all are good man and the music u pic I like the country rock metal rap all of it it's music iv always bumped and seeing y'all checking all of it out. respect way to keep ur mind heart and soul open to new things and be able to appreciate it u guys are REAL!
Been watching a bunch of your reaction vids, great job, keep up the good work!
White Zombie: Thunderkiss 65
Zombie is an acquired taste lol, not sure if they'd be into it
There's always been a lot of discussion on music and the person, how it interacts with our psychology. A really good channel that delves into those depths is Adam Neely who I really recommend checking out. Ultimately music is like language and develops in a person that way. From your earliest exposure to it (of which you wouldn't remember) you developed an association and expectation of a sound. What you are listening to is hardwiring you to seek out that sound again - a comfortable understanding. When people say they've listened to a track 100 times to enjoy it, of which I too am guilty, it's because (for the most part) there is some aspect of the song they appreciate, but as a complete composition it is too foreign to process. Much like learning a new language, you need to expose yourself and learn the subtle nuances. I'm sure everything I've said seems obvious, and it can be explained in a far better way, but it's interesting to think about anyhow. I'm sure you two have, as I have observed in you, started developing a deeper attraction to metal as a whole purely because you've been exposing yourself and developing that association and musical expectation. It's exposure therapy. You guys are the real #freethinkers. Love you both ❤️ p.s. Andy James and Angel Vivaldi, nudge nudge, you know what I want
This is a really good discussion on how music has ended up as it is today. I really recommend watching if you're a music nerd like me: ua-cam.com/video/M33cRNx3ohI/v-deo.html
Adam sure has a few nice points to make about music! And he plays bass!
predatorofpie This is definitely the correct answer. When people say, "I had to listen to Mastodon multiple times," it's because the sound is foreign and they gotta pick up on it, but there still has to be something that's intriguing about it to the listener, which I think Mastodon supplies, such as that chorus that you two enjoyed on Oblivion, and then it takes a bit for the rest to "click".
Mastodon is a lot of people's introduction to prog, so it really is that band that people build their taste for prog off of, and usually from that it doesn't take those repeat listens to grasp and enjoy other progressive music.
Same thing happens for a lot of people with harsh vocals as well, where at first it feels so ugly, but a good harsh vocalist has an aggression, raw nature, or even character if they're trying to portray something demonic, that other types of vocals simply can't portray. It takes time to figure out that those types of vocals are truly what suits not just the music being played, but the music's intent.
EDIT: However, it's also a backwards mentality to think that things you need to take time to grasp are somehow "higher" than other forms of music. Well-performed pop and hip-hop, stripped-down and primal punk, catchy and fun hard rock, etc., they all have equal merit in terms of intent, and I feel some prognerds seem to lose that along the way, and that's when it becomes obnoxious.
Malfehzan As a bassist that's what got me into him :)
predatorofpie pursuit of Vikings by Amon Amarth was this for me. I didn't like it but after a while it became one of my favorite songs
I'm glad you guys like it... I've always loved this insane duality this band has...they actually had a lot of Armenian influence to it
I watch another channel similar to yours and I love system of a down, I’m glad you guys popped up in my recommended.
The comment George made on Mastodon is quite an interesting one. When I heard Mastodon first, back in 03 - I did not like them at all!! But, I was very vocal about it. I had no desire to become a fan, for any reason. I heard some more of there stuff over time, just from listening to music channels/playlists etc and thoroughly disliked all of it.
Then one night, I was watching MTV2 and Mastodon came on with the song Colony of Birchmen and I absolutely lost my mind! It was one of the best songs I had ever heard up to that point. Then after that, their music just started to make more sense to me and I ended up being one of the biggest Mastodon fans on the planet, to this day!
It almost seems like some people need to have an epiphany moment with Mastodons music! So please don't discount them just yet guys - You just haven't heard the right song yet! :)
jimithebollix saw them with slayer back in the day and nobody really seemed to get it. Took me a long time before I have them another chance.
Yea it took me a while to get Mastodon. Not that they're deep and brooding or anything; they just have a unique sound that my ears didn't process the first couple listens through.
True, I wasn't into the first album. Until Blood Mountain they caught my interest and when Crack the Skye was released, it is one of my all time favorite albums. I've seen them live twice and they always perform great. Each album is different and has their own sound.
Great song choice.
Dillinger Escape Plan - Farewell Mona Lisa
New to the channel, but much love - you guys really sit and listen to these songs with a great balance of open mind and critical ear ...
System of a Down is one of my favorite bands of all time, and seeing these guys react to one of their songs for the first time...it's like I get to hear it all for the first time again, too. And it's so crazy, because you forget the magic of hearing something that you ended up loving for over 10 years for the first time. Thanks for letting me relive that moment! It really made me realize how much I took for granted how much I loved this music!
I just want to say that you two have become my favorite channel. You have a open mind with music. I wish that more "Black" men would be open with music choices. If it sounds good listen to it. And it helps that yall are both very handsome.
Thank you Latisha! We appreciate that!
DO MORE SYSTEM OF A DOWN!!! Im a rap fan and this band is literally my number 1 guilty to non guilty pleasure!! As a fan of yall it makes me hella happy to watch u guys enjoy these dudes!!
MaRcO2k10 i was a rock fan for years. And like a decade ago i got into hip hop. It was konda like this for me. Going back and listening to 90s hip hop and rap, and really getting it for the first time.
MaRcO2k10 honestly same. I've always been a hip hop guy but metal and grunge were always my guilty pleasures haha
I admire your knowledge of so many genres!! Subscribed!
How did I just find this channel? You guys are so open minded and I love it! Shoutout from Atlanta!
It's not a case of forcing yourself into liking something, it's more a case of getting a handle on something that's dense and rich. The most accessible music, frequently has a shorter lifespan for repeat listening and it depends on your personal listening habits. I listen to albums, the full album, repeatedly. That's just my listening habit. So I gravitate towards denser, richer music, which requires the initial time investment in the beginning. I was listening to Mastodon's Blood Mountain album a few weeks ago, an album that's been out more than 10 years, that I bought on the day of release and have listened to 100s of times in that decade. In the track Sleeping Giant, I noticed a part, a little motife in the music, which had never caught my ear before. That's a truly wonderful feeling, to still be finding new enjoyment in something that you've spent so much time with. It's not about defining my individuality, I'd seriously love for Mastodon to achieve the same success as a band like Metallica, because I truly believe they deserve it. Even if this eroded any percieved Metal Kudos that I may, or may not get from being a fan.
Counter question. Have you guys developed more of an ear for metal, during your time reacting? Is that, that you've found something to enjoy in metal, or have you forced yourselves to appreciate it? Cheers.
CB Poppet yes! I love music that you can almost always take something new out of it no matter how many times you’ve heard it.
Great question I would like to see them answer.
In my case did like Mastodon on my first try but for example gojira took me two album's to get into and now i really fucking enjoy both bands.
100% yes.
Stargazer by Rainbow and Heaven or Hell by Black Sabbath. Both with one of the greatest vocalists in Metal, Ronnie James Dio. I will post this on every video until it happens.
Rainbow in the dark by DIO
"Stargazer" is an AMAZING song i agree that they should react to it
Alex Mtz While I am a bigger fan of his stuff with Rainbow and Black Sabbath that would also be great choice. Dio is a metal god!
Shout out for being unbiased and real people. You guys make me feel good to just be a fan of music. There should be so many more like you.
I love y'alls videos its awesome to see people whos first choice of music isnt rock/hard rock/ heavy metal enjoy and talk about it witg out a preconceived idea of heavy metal the lyrics or how they are sang and you guys are intelligent about music in general especially the lyrics that has to come from being hard core hip hop fans lol keep up the good work
System of a Down may very well be the best Metal band from mid 90s to mid 2000s. One of my absolute favs. I knew this particular classic would make both of their playlists.
System Of A Down never were a "Metal" Band, sorry to say so... even i guess they never considered themselves as "Metal".
But yea for someone who doesn't listen to Metal at all or very rare, they can appear as a "Metal" Band. ;-)
Nah there metal af.
inashentears It is metal
They're one of those bands that are arguably 'not' a metal band, but are treated like they are. Like Iron Maiden - half the fans think of them as metal, the other half treat 'em like Hard Rock.
Opeth
Ghost - Cirice
I absolutely love the depth you guys go to in regards to the interpretation of the lyrics. You're superstars.
This is my Favorite SOAD song Ever. First video I'm watching from you guys. Really enjoyed your reaction :))
TESSERACT - Of Matter (Live at Sphere Studios). I get goosebumps every time I listen to this, and every other song they have! These guys make art! Listen to them!!!
Amazing!
Amon Amarth: Guardians of Asgaard or Twilight of the Thundergod
Amon Amarth: Guardians of Asgaard or Twilight of the Thundergod
So glad I found this channel you guys are awesome!
Man I love these Unbiased reviews you guys are dope
I can’t speak for everyone,but some music does take more than one listen. If you listen to a song/cd four or five times and don’t like it,be done with it. I have bought cd’s and the first play through I didn’t like it and each time after that you hear something that catches your ear that didn’t before,so you play it again. Keep up the good reviews
Jarod Rhoton youre right man
Totally true. For me, it took me a lot of listens to Nightwish's Imaginaerum before I really understood it. Now it's one one of my favorite albums of all time, and I think it's Nightwish's best.
For me, there's usually something that brings me back and keeps me giving it another try.
Take Slayer, for example: I found Slayer's monotone shouted vocals, weird cat-scratch guitar leads, and blunt subject matter highly off-putting, coming into it for the first time from a classic hard rock and new-wave British metal background.
But, gods - the drums and bass and rhythm guitars in that band! I was willing to come back and try the band again for Slayer's rhythm section. For the first few times I heard them, I might grumble and wish I could just get an instrumental version of Slayer without guitar leads, but then, after a handful of spins, everything just sort of clicked, and I got it: Slayer with, say, Iron Maiden's operatic vocals and melodic guitar leads just wouldn't work at all after I got used to Slayer's nasty, gritty, violently dramatic total package, and now I couldn't imagine Slayer any other way.
When I got used to these aspects of metal as an artistic and cinematic part of the bigger picture, I could then draw parallels to things that were familiar to me (like horror movie soundtracks, for example), and see where the musicians are going with them. I could realize that Slayer's weird, chaotic guitar leads represent human screams, for example - and make a great deal of narrative sense in songs about serial killers and concentration camp victims. Morbid Angel's even weirder guitar leads on their early albums represent alien, inhuman voices responding to the vocalist's chants. On their earlier albums based on middle-eastern religion and mythology, Orphaned Land tends to use clear vocals for human voices, and growls when angels are speaking. A lot of black metal bands tend to start their songs with an extremely chaotic and unbalanced burst of unconventional and noisy music, and then slowly bring a little order out of that chaos until there's an airy, atmospheric, spiritual, and classical effect to the music, reflecting that genre's distinctive philosophy. I suspect that for a lot of the prog and "math" metal fans who play instruments and understand music theory, there's something of the joy of solving a mathematical equation in figuring out how all the complicated polyrhythms fit together into the song's logical whole... it's realizing there's something there in the bigger picture even if we didn't quite see it the first time that, I think, keeps bringing us back to dig a little deeper into these songs, bands, and albums.
Thtat's fair but if you are pushing 99 and need one more you may just be trying too hard to like it
What's a CD?
Nice job guys SOAD is one of my favorite bands.
I had a work buddy who was primarily a hip hop guy. He told me he did love the album Toxicity and said the band had amazing transitions. Crazy how these guys had the exact same reaction.
I love you guys. You remind me of myself when I first discovered these songs. Love this so much. New subscriber 👋
Better than listening to something 100 times in order to like it is to just step away from it for a while and listen to other bands and then come back to it. Sometimes you gotta hear a lot of what else is going on in a genre in order to understand why a specific band does what it does.
Cody Clarke my favorite bands I didn't like the first time I heard them. When I was a kid I really didn't like Metallica, tool, Alice in Chains, System of a Down, But you're right the more I listen to other types of rock the more I really liked them.
I doubt anybody told them they had to listen 100 times to catch on lol but i definitely understand taking a few listens before you start to appreciate and like a song. When i first heard tool I was in a extreme metal phase and thereof I wasnt turned on to it. Never thought it was terrible but it was just not hard enough for me. What we think is not good one day can be the hottest thing to us the next day. Right now I feel these guys need for a song to be polished and refined to like it. They would probably have a tough time listening to punk or something unconventional.
Ghost - cirice
Twelve Foot Ninja - one hand killing
lol you guys are so good at immediately identifying the great parts of a song and all the cool transitions, it's awesome...
You guys rock !!!!!!!
I love watching you guys discover these songs!!!!!
My favorite reaction video people.............
Tool - The POT
Shorter version of my previous comment: for visceral reaction at first listen, check out FEAR FACTORY - Self Bias Resistor, you'll instantly understand why these guys have been dubbed one of the most influential and greatest metal bands of all time (and I really don't understantd why I don't see them recommended more, they're a foundational band whose sound seems to have been made just for you)
One of my all time favourite metal albums! Each song is dynamic and energised. No one in the whole genre sounds like Soad. There is just something to them you don’t get with other bands. So glad you guys like it!
I always loved this one by SOAD. It left a huge impression on me from the first few seconds. Brilliant.
Nevermore - This Godless Endeavor! The song is epic. Jeff Loomis is one of the best progressive metal guitarists of all time. I am surprised I haven't seen anyone else recommend it. What is up people?
Valagnar I’ve been recommending this on almost every video! Lol
Michael Delgado: Same here! LOL! I know there are tons of Nevermore fans out there. I've just been wondering where they are. Maybe I just can't see them because of all the comments.
Valagnar Hopefully they’ll see it eventually haha. And I agree with you, EPIC is the perfect word to describe This Godless Endeavor!🤘🏼
I've been recommending too... Let's keep up the good fight!
Lots of people have been reqesting Nevermore. I think they should do a more accesible song like River dragon has come.
Cemetery Gates - Pantera
I love your reaction henceforth the subscription I've watched about 10 of yours today having a beer and a good time thank you
Love you guys! You both pulled me out of a deep depression. You gave me something to look forward too!
Death - Flesh And The Power It Holds
Steven Boyd pleaseeeeeeee
it's inevitable for them to not listen to Death. The band name is far too generically intriguing.
Ghost - From the pinnacle to the pit. Let's mix it up and get some recent popular rock/metal boys!!!! Please!!!!
I love how you guys react to so many different genres. I don't get bored of watching you guys react because of that. I love the variety
Realest reactions in UA-cam...thank you guys!
Ghost - Square Hammer
Seconded!
Third-ed!
"Machine Head - Halo" would be great.
edit: do the 9 minute version, guys.
Gojira or Game Over
This might sound crazy, but is it just me or does the chorus of Game Over sound like a really heavy pop punk song? Replace the growls with a high-pitched whine and you could have a mid-2000s hit.
Maaaan I love the fact you guys dig this! Man I grew up listening to hip hop until 14 then heard system and linkin park and fell in love - the energy is unique
Seeing y'all's enjoyment of something i love is intoxicating! ❤️
The Mars Volta - Goliath. A little fusion action for your ears.
Colin Witkowski yes. This 100 percent
I'd personally go with Cygnus Vismund Cygnus, but Goliath is pretty dope as well.
Roulette Dares is definitely Mars Volta at their peak. Got to do something with Jon Theodore.
Finally someone else suggests this. Goliath might be the most accessible song from them.
Actually, most accessible would probably be Wax Simulacra, being the grammy winner and all (for whatever reason. But Goliath is easily the best compromise between accessibility and actual quality.
I find myself commenting on all your vids! I love this channel.
System of a Down - BYOB reaction!
You guys rock!!!
Best reaction channel ever!!
Deftones - Passenger. It has Maynard James Keenan from Tool in it!!
Yes!!! 100%
+100
Z D nice suggestion
This would be an awesome reaction
This one is a MUST.
Buckethead - Soothsayer
A new subscriber and going threw your picks, so glad you loved this song. System of a Down kicks ass.
2:05 SOAD are the fuckin kings of trasitions. You never know how they did it, it seems like nothing happens and still it catches you off guard. Sometimes the difference between both parts is so huge that you don't even understand how it went so well
Metallica - Battery
dc osta rather Blackened
Blackened is a great song...one of my favorites, but I don't know if Ryan or George have ever seen the raw, balls out version of Metallica I came to love.
I submit this for your consideration:

Cheers!
Well, they did Puppets a while back and they loved the hell out of it, so pretty much.
As much as I revere MoP & AJFA, I'd like it if they did something even older, like Creeping Death or The Four Horsemen.
I'm okay with this!
Machine Head - Locust (The full version not the music video) Thanks guys!
The whole "listening to the song 100 times" thing is more about the particular song or band being so different to what you're used to that you just don't "get it". I used to hate bands like Tool or Meshuggah because I thought all their music sounded the same and the vocals in Meshuggah were off putting. Now I can't get enough of both of them. I'm a huge fan of MASTODON now too, and it took me a while to get into them. I put that down to their music being so different to anything else..
You don't walk through a fine art museum and just glimpse at all the paintings; you stand in front of each one for as long as it takes for you to "get it" or take it all in... Some music is like fine art my friends.
I find that the bands that take a while to understand or get into are usually the ones that will become your favorites.
Same omg
Can definitely relate, took me 2 years to appreciate Gojira
You guys rock love your open minds
Ghost - Cirice, Secular Haze, or Elizabeth
Cirice. Total fire.
