Omg 😆 I agree, I can’t skip one song, the album 💿 I would take to my island 🏝️ and Def Leppard is actually my favorite band but I named my first born Sebastian, he’s almost 30 now 😂
This album is exactly what we needed from Skid Row at the time. We as fans felt like metal music was on the way out, and this was SO heavy. I remember hearing the first single with my friends and we were blown away. Sebastian Bach has such an amazing voice and it is showcased well on this song. Great selection. Check out the tracks Monkey Business and the title track as well.
Metal isn't on the way out. Don't listen to radio. UA-cam and Spotify have many suggestions for great bands. If you like your music really heavy with a groove, try Gojira's newest album Fortitude and specifically the track Amazonia or their album Magma or even heavier album From Mars to Sirius track Flying Whales and Heaviest Matter in the Universe. I love this band from France. This band's range from super heavy to present day almost prog rock is unique.
I'd say that hair bands were on the way out, grunge and real heavy metal were on the rise at the time. Pantera, Metallica, Ozzy all put out hit records after this
@@MattSmith-wz1xh honestly this album was a lot heavier than typical hair metal. Id put it in the real heavy metal category, but just barley. The lyrics on it were darker than regular Hair metal as well.
Rachel Bolan, the bass player, gave an interview in 2011 where he explained holding to your religious beliefs in good times and bad and that it's not easy to do that. Lines like "Why should we doubt the virgin white of fallen snow, When Faith's our shelter from the cold" definitely supports the idea. In A Darkened Room is a great next choice.
I loved watching this video and as the guitarist for "EvidenceBlack" I have to point out that Amber is the type of person that every guitarist scans the audience looking for. Her whole being instantly weaves into what the guitarist is doing and its like her soul locks into the soul of the guitarist for the length of the song. She is spiritually immersed into the chord changes and all the dynamics that the song offers. Look closely, at 3:14 minutes into the video she is blasted by goose bumps and then at 3:38 she and the guitarist become almost as they are one being. Amber, I have to say YOU REALLY GET IT!!!! and its a thrill to see how much you love good music. I would strongly suggest that you learn how to play guitar yourself. There are strong messages inside you just screaming to get heard. God Bless Frank
I am so glad y’all listened to this song. Hit me so hard and I have this song on my playlist. Reminds me to always trust in God and live the best life I can live. Love y’all.
Slave To The Grind is an amazing album and I think it allowed the band to really open up musically. You should really check out “In A Darkened Room” next. I would love to see your reaction to that one.
*In a Darkened Room by Skid Row should be next. It's about child abuse and hits so hard. I know how important this topic is to you, to protect children. That's what this song is about. By the way, Sebastian Bach just released a new song and video. You guys should definitely react to it. It's called 'what do I got to lose.* 🤘🤘🤘
The entire Slave To The Grind Album is a banger! First one too. In A Darkened Room, Psycho Love, Monkey Business, Slave To The Grind Areal great ones to check out next. Sebastian had THE pipes back in the day
Raised Seventh Day Adventist. Hearing this song a few years after it was released back in the mid 90's, I was in junior high and questioning everything. This wrenched me in ways I didn't understand back then and still marvel at to this day. Amber has it, spot on and dead to rights. SR expresses am ambivalence toward faith that is eminently and heart-breakingly relevant.
Sebastian's voice is just somethign else. Listening again to all Skid Row's old songs... We were so spoiled to grow up / be old teens when they were in their prime...
Sebastian Bach…..incredible vocalist, VERY pretty man back in the day (I don’t know a rock woman who didn’t have a crush on him), a real “bad boy” (saw him quite a few times live and some of the antics he did on stage would probably get him arrested nowadays 🤣) and a bit of an outcast in rock circles for speaking his mind. No nonsense frontman but he was one of the very best front men I have seen at any live show
This song was released 33 years ago today on June 26th 1991 and they were battling with the likes in nirvana, pearl jam, and the grunge that was taking over
I'd recommend you both react to Queensrÿche performing Take Hold of the Flame live in Tokyo, Japan (ca. 1984). You'll love the positive message of the lyrics, the band's tight instrumentation, and Geoff Tate's incredible vocal performance.
I’ve been requesting more RYCHE for months now. J loved the last Reactions so I wish they would get back to them. Just so many requests, I’m sure it’s tough.
In a darkened room is a banger and lyrically extremely deep! I do believe slave to the grind was overall their best! I was 22 when it was released and bought the CD on day of release….. definitely the song is in my top 5 that they have
Quicksand Jesus is one of the best songs Skid Row ever put out. I remember listening to Slave to the Grind for the first time, and this song was incredible. You need to read the lyrics to this song, as they are powerful, and Sebastian Bach is one of the best, underrated lead singers of all time. He was the total package, and this song really showcases his range. Wasted Time is another great song off of Slave the Grind, that definitely needs a reaction. Thanks for the reaction to this classic!
Slave to the Grind by Skid Row or Monkey Business, Piece of Me etc, please...oh yeah so you know for some weird reason, all metalheads love Belinda Carlisle....Summer Rain, I get Weak, Half The World, Big Scary Anima, In too Deep, Circle in the Sand, Runaway Horses, All God's Children, Circle In the Sand, Do You Feel Like I feel....lets go
That is so true. Belinda Carlisle has street cred that other 80s female artists did not have. She was in the Germs in the 70s and brought the Go-Gos to prominence with her stage presence and unique voice to the top of the charts in the early 80s to mid-80s. Her solo career was fire in the States but even bigger (much bigger) internationally. Belinda liked real instruments in most of her music and appreciated good songwriting- she insisted on it for her records- not a trait of every pop star. It didn't hurt that Belinda was the most beautiful woman on earth from 1986- 1996. Belinda and the Go-Gos need more love from this channel- Belinda Solo's stuff is top pop material, doesn't get better. However, we can't forget the Go-Go-s catalog. Unforgiven, apology Cool Jerk, Has the whole world lost its head, and yes or no among others by the Go-Go's need to be done.
Another masterpiece from Skid Row. When I heard the song for the first time as a teenager in the early 90s, I was immediately hooked. To this day one of the hottest songs of Skid Row
I'm still listening to Skid Row to this day after all these years. In a darken room is a MUST reaction!!! The official video has an awesome surprise near the end.
Love this one guys. Thanks for reacting to Skid Row, they really are an amazing band! You should chekout "In a darkened room" by them, just like this one it brings you a lot of emotions.
Been living the nomad life overseas for about 12 years. Listening to this just made me realize I need to get a decent sound bar/speakers. Listening to this on my laptop or TV speakers just doesn't cut it. Sebastian Bach was so F'n amazing.
I love this song. I got a suggestion for you in the Glam Metal category. It's from the second wave of LA Bands that got signed near the end of the 80's...they were dominated by Guns N Roses, but one other band that I really enjoyed from that time was Faster Pussycat...their big hit was House Of Pain off their second album "Wake Me When It's Over", but I think a good song to start with is off their FIRST Album which was self-titled. Bathroom Wall is the song. As a drummer I love it. The lead singer was co-owner of the club The Cathouse in Hollywood with Ricky Rachtman. Rachtman was the long time host of Headbangers Ball on MTV and was in the Guns N Roses video "November Rain" as one of the wedding guests.
Slave to the Grind was the first metal album to debut at number 1... with some help from the new sound scan tracking. It was so heavy opening the door for "hair/sleeze" rock to become the next generation of. Bands like Pantera.. Pantera opened for Skids on the Slave tour and it was an amazing show. But to truly hear the heavy Skid Row ya gotta do "Slave to the Grind" song stands up to this day and puts even thrash in its place. One of the hardest songs that still represents the genre.
Went to school and played ball with founder, guitarist & song writer Dave Sabo. He’s one of the nicest guys you could ever meet. As mega talented as Sebastian is/was as a singer and front man, for Snake to turn down million$ to reunite tells you something about Bach. So glad they hooked up with Erik Grönwall.
😮 This song reminds me of some of songs written/performed by "Resurrection Band" ("Rez") in the 1970s. The vocal styling, guitaring, and lyrics have a very similar vibe. Check out their song "Awaiting your reply".
There is another tune of this caliber by, "LA GUNS" - "Over The Edge" Traci Guns was a member in their earliest formation of GNR Guns & Roses. "Over The Edge" has some "Asian" undertones in the music. Making it quite intoxicating to listen in on. Dark and Sensual
This metal band you may not have ever heard of, they are The Hu, first song is called Yuve Yuve Yu ( official music video ). The second one is Wolf Totem ( official music video ) I believe this is called Mongolian Metal.
This is my favourite Skid Row song. Just like Guns N Roses they do heavy rock and softer ballads very well. This is what you call a power Ballard. It is not a soft Ballard but still a Ballard. Skid Row have some very emotional songs. Monkey Business, Slave to the Grind and The Threat are songs that Rock hard. If you are going to listen to Hard Rock albums in full then my suggestions for Top 10 albums would be in this order are 1. Appetite for Destruction (GNR) 2. Metallica (Black Album) 3. Countdown to Extinction (Megadeth) 4. Avenged Sevenfold (Self titled) 5. Slave to the Grind (Skid Row) 6. Badmotorfiner (Soundgarden). 7. Toxicity (SOAD) 8. Ten Thousand Fists (Disturbed) 9. Highway to Hell (AC/DC) 10. Hysteria (Def Leppard). Toxicity by System of a Down is one of the best and craziest Hard Rock/Alt Metal albums of all time. You defs need to do more SOAD, Disturbed and Avenged Sevenfold too.
When this album came out it was a first day purchase!!!! I remember when i had to learn the bass part for Monkey Business 🤘 at practice. We sounded so fucking good. If only we could go back in time to fully appreciate our youth.
This is one of my FAVE Skid Row songs. My girls face mimics my own every time I hear it. It would be awesome if someone made a lyrics video. They may have, I honestly haven't looked yet.
You will enjoy Alyona version of Quicksand Jesus ! Amazing song! I got that song when it came out no one I knew could really relate to that song, but I knew it was great. Alyona does an amazing version cant stop listening or reminiscing through her version. It had been years hit me hard again !
Awe. This is such a great video, would have been great to see. But Skid Row has been my #1 band for the past 34 years. Sebastian just released a new song and it sounds great. I probably have seen him more in concert than anyone else. I wanted to add, Skid Row is how I found your channel. It was suggested to me when you reacted to Wasted Time.
Fantastic song! Sabastian Bach's voice is one of the most underrated in rock. He can belt out some notes. His range is incredible! Rachel Bolan and Snake Sabo wrote some incredible lyrics for this song. The angst of it tells about despair and longing in a world that is so challenging and looking towards a higher power for answers but not always getting them. Man's ability to cope which we can all relate to and appreciate .
Awesome song from them. Really liked it. I do suggest "Slave To the Grind" "Little Wing" "Piece Of Me" "My Enemy" "Big Guns" "In A Darkened Room." Ok, I do suggest Winger--Headin' For A Heartbreak.
Off this particular album the title track "Slave to the Grind" is top tier rock and Monkey Business is a close behind. You did the other single off this in Wasted Time but the album really is held up by Slave and Monkey Business.
I feel so so DAMNED LUCKY to have grown up with this music.
The whole Slave To The Grind album is fire, not one bad song....
Listened to this album SO much back in the day 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
Had my mom buy me this album when it came out. I was 10-12 years old. I played the cassette until it was warped.
Chromium dioxide cassette firstly, then on vynil....A real diamond of music
Omg 😆 I agree, I can’t skip one song, the album 💿 I would take to my island 🏝️ and Def Leppard is actually my favorite band but I named my first born Sebastian, he’s almost 30 now 😂
I still do !
“In A Darkened Room” and “Wasted Time” are to other great vocal showcases from this album. “Monkey Business” is a great blues-based rocker as well!
They've done Wasted Time
in a darkened room is my favorite skid row song
Oh yes those are great
yes man, i love in a darkened room, his voice is insane there!
Sebastian Bach is an incredible vocalist... even many "opera singers react" folks are blown away by his voice...
Uhhh…Sebastian is an opera singer. He has many years of broadway under his belt. Phantom of the Opera, Superstar, etc.
True he's classically trained@@billybee3423

“Main stream” metal was on the way out, but at this time I was into Metallica, Sepultura, Obituary, Exodus, Slayer, Cinderella, plenty of heavy music.
The whole Slave to the Grind album is epic. Can't go wrong with any song. I also love In a Darkened Room. First metal album to debut at #1
In A Darkened Room is an amazing song one of my favorites on Slave To The Grind
Incorrect. Pantera - Far Beyond Driven was the first metal album to debut at number 1.
Far Beyond Driven came out 3 years after Slave to the Grind. Slave came out in 1991, Far Beyond driven in 1994.
@@xDamageProducer Far Beyond Driven is a terrible album.
@@DamnDealDoneno one cares about your opinion.
Sebastian Bach had some pipes.... & it didn't hurt that he was easy on the eye too.... Yesiree...He sure was purty!!!....Lol.
Came here say something like that too🤭
Yessiree, you are absolutely 💯 correct.
Was
🤣🤣🤣yes
He was one of my first crushes.
Rachel Bolan, the bass player, gave an interview in 2011 where he explained holding to your religious beliefs in good times and bad and that it's not easy to do that.

Skid Row is incredible! They had a great run but way too underrated. Younger generations need to wake up to Skid Row.
I loved watching this video and as the guitarist for "EvidenceBlack" I have to point out that Amber is the type of person that every guitarist scans the audience looking for.

Sabastian Bach as of January 25th, 2024, is now in the Metal Hall of Fame! Well deserved and about time! 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Bach will always be one of my fave voices. That man can sang!
I am so glad y’all listened to this song. Hit me so hard and I have this song on my playlist. Reminds me to always trust in God and live the best life I can live. Love y’all.
This song should never be forgotten.
Whole album is untouchable, deservedly went to #1 on the Billboard charts when it was released
Slave To The Grind is an amazing album and I think it allowed the band to really open up musically. You should really check out “In A Darkened Room” next. I would love to see your reaction to that one.
Slave to the grind, monkey business, in a darkened room, really anything on that album!
The high note Bach hits on this song is mind blowing
That song is just an emotional experience from the music, lyrics, and singing!!
*In a Darkened Room by Skid Row should be next. It's about child abuse and hits so hard. I know how important this topic is to you, to protect children. That's what this song is about.

Out of the awesome songs from Skid Row this is my favorite, Great song.
18 And Life was always my favourite.
The entire Slave To The Grind Album is a banger! First one too. In A Darkened Room, Psycho Love, Monkey Business, Slave To The Grind Areal great ones to check out next. Sebastian had THE pipes back in the day
He was my second favorite voice of the 80s/90s after Geoff Tate from queensryche ❤
Agree 100%. Sebastian is phenomenal, but I haven't heard anyone beat Geoff.....ever.
I like Geoff Tate, but I think Bas has so much passion when he sings that I have to give it to him.
This album is a masterpiece
Raised Seventh Day Adventist. Hearing this song a few years after it was released back in the mid 90's, I was in junior high and questioning everything. This wrenched me in ways I didn't understand back then and still marvel at to this day. Amber has it, spot on and dead to rights.

I'm a 7th Day Adventist too, and I discovered this album when it came out back in '91, I never stopped listening to it.
Sebastian's voice is just somethign else. Listening again to all Skid Row's old songs... We were so spoiled to grow up / be old teens when they were in their prime...
A song that will make me cry every single time! ❤❤❤
Always loved this song. Glade you finally got to this.
Sebastian Bach…..incredible vocalist, VERY pretty man back in the day (I don’t know a rock woman who didn’t have a crush on him), a real “bad boy” (saw him quite a few times live and some of the antics he did on stage would probably get him arrested nowadays 🤣) and a bit of an outcast in rock circles for speaking his mind. No nonsense frontman but he was one of the very best front men I have seen at any live show
Had to put my headphones on along with you guys for this one…what a ride. Sebastian Bach is insane in this one. One of favorite vocalists for sure
If you want to very opposite end of the spectrum check out, one their heaviest songs, Monkey Business. It has probably Sabastian's longest scream.
This song was released 33 years ago today on June 26th 1991 and they were battling with the likes in nirvana, pearl jam, and the grunge that was taking over
Amber puts her whole soul into the music !
She definitely feels it the way it supposed to be
In a darkened room is another must
Love Sebastian.
Amazing band! Amazing vocals as always by Sebastian Bach!
I'd recommend you both react to Queensrÿche performing Take Hold of the Flame live in Tokyo, Japan (ca. 1984). You'll love the positive message of the lyrics, the band's tight instrumentation, and Geoff Tate's incredible vocal performance.
Walk in the Shadows or Jet City Woman by Queensryche are good jumping off points.
Someone Else? by Queensryche too
I’ve been requesting more RYCHE for months now. J loved the last Reactions so I wish they would get back to them. Just so many requests, I’m sure it’s tough.
Sebastian Bach is a vocal God!!
This song came out way before 9/11, but for those of y’all old enough to remember that day, this song hits another level.
The 2 guitarists actually switch solos multiple times, they do it a lot on this Album.
Monkey business if you haven't done it before. I love his voice.
In a darkened room is a banger and lyrically extremely deep! I do believe slave to the grind was overall their best! I was 22 when it was released and bought the CD on day of release….. definitely the song is in my top 5 that they have
Sebastian Bach's voice on that record was supernatural.

Btw. Monkey Business is a song you should do next from Skid Row. It will knock your socks off. 😁👍🎆
This is one of the songs that I used to help teach myself how to play the drums. Great tune!
This is a proper rock ballard my favorite type of music powerful vocals great beat fantastic guitat solo SUPERB.
Slave to the Grind by Skid Row or Monkey Business, Piece of Me etc, please...oh yeah so you know for some weird reason, all metalheads love Belinda Carlisle....Summer Rain, I get Weak, Half The World, Big Scary Anima, In too Deep, Circle in the Sand, Runaway Horses, All God's Children, Circle In the Sand, Do You Feel Like I feel....lets go

I thought I was the only metal head that liked her
Monkey Business should really be next from Skid Row.
I know how much you guys love KISS. Skid Row does an absolute killer cover version of "C'MON AND LOVE ME" from their B-SIDE OURSELVES lp. It rocks! 🔥🔥
Another masterpiece from Skid Row. When I heard the song for the first time as a teenager in the early 90s, I was immediately hooked. To this day one of the hottest songs of Skid Row
How impressive is it, that the guitar notes match his voice. Especially near the end when he really belts out the notes.
I'm still listening to Skid Row to this day after all these years. In a darken room is a MUST reaction!!! The official video has an awesome surprise near the end.
Love this one guys. Thanks for reacting to Skid Row, they really are an amazing band! You should chekout "In a darkened room" by them, just like this one it brings you a lot of emotions.
I was so excited to see that y'all were reacting to this! I had hoped for this to eventually happen!
Been living the nomad life overseas for about 12 years. Listening to this just made me realize I need to get a decent sound bar/speakers. Listening to this on my laptop or TV speakers just doesn't cut it. Sebastian Bach was so F'n amazing.

Need to check out the title track "SLAVE TO THE GRIND".
Absolutely, that!
Skid Row was way ahead of their time! They have been one of my all time favs since day one.
Sebastian is my absolute favorite rock vocalist. Major crush when I was in high school... ❤ Beautiful man with equally beautiful voice!
Great song, wonderful band & beautiful voice! 👍👏👏👏🩵🩵
The first time I listened to this song was on 91, and I am still listening to it.
Probably my Fav from Skid. Man's got some pipes!! Great reaction as normal you two!!
One of my top 3 favorite songs of all time. Been waiting for my favorite reactors to get to it. Super psyched you saw the genius of it.
1 of my favorite Skid Row songs. Some of Sebastian Bach's best vocals.
So glad you guys watched this! I loved the reaction.
There are no words to describe how much I love Skid Row.
Went to school and played ball with founder, guitarist & song writer Dave Sabo. He’s one of the nicest guys you could ever meet. As mega talented as Sebastian is/was as a singer and front man, for Snake to turn down million$ to reunite tells you something about Bach. So glad they hooked up with Erik Grönwall.
😮 This song reminds me of some of songs written/performed by "Resurrection Band" ("Rez") in the 1970s. The vocal styling, guitaring, and lyrics have a very similar vibe. Check out their song "Awaiting your reply".
Early Skid Row “Piece of Me” is a very raw Sebastian Bach and definitely worth a listen.
There is another tune of this caliber by, "LA GUNS" - "Over The Edge" Traci Guns was a member in their earliest formation of GNR Guns & Roses. "Over The Edge" has some "Asian" undertones in the music. Making it quite intoxicating to listen in on. Dark and Sensual
MUST LISTEN.---- Skid row "In a Darkened Room" ... Amazing to this day
This metal band you may not have ever heard of, they are The Hu, first song is called Yuve Yuve Yu ( official music video ). The second one is Wolf Totem ( official music video ) I believe this is called Mongolian Metal.
This is my favourite Skid Row song. Just like Guns N Roses they do heavy rock and softer ballads very well. This is what you call a power Ballard. It is not a soft Ballard but still a Ballard. Skid Row have some very emotional songs. Monkey Business, Slave to the Grind and The Threat are songs that Rock hard. If you are going to listen to Hard Rock albums in full then my suggestions for Top 10 albums would be in this order are 1. Appetite for Destruction (GNR) 2. Metallica (Black Album) 3. Countdown to Extinction (Megadeth) 4. Avenged Sevenfold (Self titled) 5. Slave to the Grind (Skid Row) 6. Badmotorfiner (Soundgarden). 7. Toxicity (SOAD) 8. Ten Thousand Fists (Disturbed) 9. Highway to Hell (AC/DC) 10. Hysteria (Def Leppard). Toxicity by System of a Down is one of the best and craziest Hard Rock/Alt Metal albums of all time. You defs need to do more SOAD, Disturbed and Avenged Sevenfold too.
Great song! I am so glad you finally did this one! You should try In a Darkened Room Also!
When this album came out it was a first day purchase!!!! I remember when i had to learn the bass part for Monkey Business 🤘 at practice. We sounded so fucking good. If only we could go back in time to fully appreciate our youth.
This is one of my FAVE Skid Row songs. My girls face mimics my own every time I hear it. It would be awesome if someone made a lyrics video. They may have, I honestly haven't looked yet.
I attended the Slave to the Grind tour back in Mtn View CA in 91. They put on a great show.
Nothing less than amazing...
You will enjoy Alyona version of Quicksand Jesus ! Amazing song! I got that song when it came out no one I knew could really relate to that song, but I knew it was great. Alyona does an amazing version cant stop listening or reminiscing through her version. It had been years hit me hard again !
Awe. This is such a great video, would have been great to see. But Skid Row has been my #1 band for the past 34 years. Sebastian just released a new song and it sounds great. I probably have seen him more in concert than anyone else. I wanted to add, Skid Row is how I found your channel. It was suggested to me when you reacted to Wasted Time.
Break down by skid row is another incredible skid row song.
Monkey Business you got to listen to!! You will love it 🤘
My era had the best f’in music!!!!
Fun fact. Sabastian's dad did the painting for the cover.
I'm so glad to see you react to this particular song. ❤
This is by far my favorite Skid Row song!
Fantastic song! Sabastian Bach's voice is one of the most underrated in rock. He can belt out some notes. His range is incredible! Rachel Bolan and Snake Sabo wrote some incredible lyrics for this song. The angst of it tells about despair and longing in a world that is so challenging and looking towards a higher power for answers but not always getting them. Man's ability to cope which we can all relate to and appreciate .
He was the GOAT and what a time to be alive
Monkey Business is a must.
Please do Monkey Business! That is a good groovin' banger!
MORE SKID ROW!!!!!
Fantastic song! Thanks for reacting to this. So amazing.
Try Monkey Business or Slave To The Grind..this whole album was 🔥
Awesome song from them. Really liked it. I do suggest "Slave To the Grind" "Little Wing" "Piece Of Me" "My Enemy" "Big Guns" "In A Darkened Room." Ok, I do suggest Winger--Headin' For A Heartbreak.
I know the Amber sway is still in there but I delight in seeing the rocking side of Amber move, Go girl!
Off this particular album the title track "Slave to the Grind" is top tier rock and Monkey Business is a close behind. You did the other single off this in Wasted Time but the album really is held up by Slave and Monkey Business.
