- In this video I react to Death's The flesh and the power it holds.
As I continue my death metal journey I thought this piece was truly compelling. Death metal is really starting to peak my interest.
Chuck shuldiner had amazingly perfect pronunciation, u could understand every word he sang
Saw death over 40 times in my life. Amazing band. Lived in Tampa for a while in the 80s. Lot of good bands and made some amazing friends. Chuck was unique and fit into no molds. He was such a nice guy. So funny and very engaging . Never had a bad experience at his shows or having a beer back stage. I grew up with him. in a literal sense. He was a year and a half older than me. So as he grew, amazingly so did I.
I miss him,
A LOT.
You lucky bastard. I was born a few days before his death.
I was a few months old rip😭
Congrats for seeing DEATH so many times. I fuking hate you, but congrats!!
All kidding aside, DEATH and CHUCK have meant more to me than even TOOL and thats saying a lot!
@@coryg7051 Indeed. So much of my experience with music was around that time. The feeling of having someone say what you think, in music, and make your life more complete is a great thing. The music will always be there. Still hurts every year. Especially around Christmas. But it will live long after we are all gone.
Chuck was basically the Bruce Lee of metal, shapeless, constantly evolving, fitting into no mold. Look at all these kids who are still inspired by him decades after his passing. He achieved immortality.
Death - Voice of the soul
It's a little different from their normal sound but it is one of the most beautiful pieces of music I've ever heard
Wonderful. There's a reason Chuck Schuldiner, the lead guitarist and vocalist for Death, is considered the godfather of death metal. It's one of the few bands who have a virtually perfect discography. Here's some of my favorites from their albums to give you a good idea of what they do: Pull the Plug, Zombie Ritual, Symbolic, The Perennial Quest, The Philosopher, and Spirit Crusher. If you want an amazing instrumental, Voice of the Soul. Chuck really speaks through his guitar in that one.
Excellent list I also believe they have a complete catalog with every album is a different theme in which they slayed.
Underrated songs that are also really good that no one ever reacts to : spiritual healing, flattening of emotions, lack of comprehension , evil dead, leprosy, misanthrope
We need a reaction to Evil Dead, the song and film together.
No sé quién sos ni qué decís, pero me pareces un flor de pelotudo
Perfect discography, couldn't agree more.
you could do a whole series on DEATH, from their first album to last, and review how their sound changed. that would be cool.
Sounds like a good idea. I'll probably do something like that after I finish up with Megadeth.
@@TheAdventuresofTNT excellent idea death is perfection who evolved each album
I second this!! Death is pure magic!!!
This is one of my favorite songs. Idk why Death isn't more popular. It's amazing.
I love this song
Steve H I think it’s due to Chuck’s death and the name of the band
death are REALLY popular tho.
I think they are very popular, pretty much all metal fans have at least heard of Death. They've never had commercial success but how many death metal bands, let alone metal bands ever have?
What an honest and positive reaction to both the music and lyrics. I've been watching your channel more and more lately and I appreciate the fact that you are willing to dive deeper into unknown territory.
As a long time death metal fan, I would definitely second the suggestion for more Melodic Death Metal like this, because it's a bit more accessible for newer fans than other styles. I second the suggestion for Death's "1,000 Eyes" or "The Philosopher". Thanks for your genuine reactions.
Welcome to Death..
might i suggest "1000 eyes" as your next Death reaction
Great track for our times
@@johnnyrayh5858 exactly
Dude You should react to Death - Spirit Crusher
lol, I literally clicked that a second ago and put it in my que for later.
@@TheAdventuresofTNT You're in for a treat once you reach it. :)
Ten month old comment, but he should. Everyone should listen to at least one of Deaths songs.
Glad to see you're getting into Death! Even for a self proclaimed metal head like myself, some death metal can be a little difficult to parse. Death is a fantastic band to transition into the genre, and rightly so as they are a pioneer in the genre. This whole album is fantastic, and I think you would enjoy their other tracks like Crystal Mountain and Spiritual Healing
Okay. I SEE YOU. I see you are clearly already a Death fan, like you said. This album is a MASTERPIECE. Highly recommend everything on this one and also Symbolic. Let's be real, everything by them is amazing. 😂
Chucks drummers need all the validation anyone can give, they are all so good
Good intro songs (imo):
Cannibal Corpse - Beyond the Cemetery
Obituary - The End Complete
Morbid Angel - Fall From Grace
Death - Suicide Machine
Entombed - Stranger Aeons
Deicide - Lunatic of God's Creaation
Tha albums each one of these tracks are on are great throughout as well
Rest In Peace, Chuck!! Damn, so many metal heroes are being lost
*Rust
Death was the first death metal band I got into back in the day (1990-ish). Mainly because it was the first death metal band. I tolerated it because it is so melodic and progressive at the same time. My favorite Death album is Spiritual Healing from 1990 (iromically). Every song on it has something you could grab and hold onto. Spiritual Healing is the blue cover art album with the evangelical preacher on it.
Been to a decent amount of death metal shows/festivals in the past, and had some of the most humble, down to earth people there. Not a full on metal head, but being eclectic towards different genres makes music so much better. Now i want to watch the Chappelle skit with john mayer lol. “John, play the fight riff. Play it!!!”
Cool reaction! Death was from Florida, and spawned a huge number of death metal bands in Florida like Deicide, Obituary, Morbid Angel and cannibal corpse. All these Florida death metal bands were and still are hugely influential and entertaining.
Hell yea man! Death is the best, hail the godfather of death metal! And seriously dude just choose whatever song next, doesnt really matter theyre all amazing
Cryptopsy came around in the early 90’s. During that time death metal was being more experimented with and was getting “heavier.” Other examples would be bands like Suffocation or Gorguts. Bands of this sort were influential to what is now known as brutal death metal.
Good ear for being able to tell the differences in a band like Cryptopsy compared to Death.
My recommendation would be Cattle Decapitation- Kingdom of Tyrants
It’s absolutely extreme, but their use of melody is beautiful. This mans vocal range is nuts, he can scream with melodic overtones and it’s disgustingly beautiful. Even if you don’t end up reacting to it, check it out
From death my favorite would have to be crystal mountain or empty words.
Technical and melodic.
When that riff kicks in 3:04
When it comes to death metal - are you ready to step onto the hallowed shores of DEICIDE?
The first album, self titled, would be where to begin. First song, one at a time...Its up to you my friend..
And also early Cannibal Corpse with Chris Barnes
Don't go anywhere near these bands mate, they're a trap. They misrepresent death metal and give it a bad name.
@@mysteriousDSF cannibal corpse is actually really good
Cryptopsy is technical extreme death metal where this is good old fashion straight up Death Metal at its finest there’s a big difference.
Death is still pretty progressive and technical band. They where was so good
It’s not straight up death metal though, especially anything off this album. It’s progressive death metal. Stick prog on virtually any genre and Imho it makes it better
Empty Words and Destiny are my favorite Death songs, I really recommend them, they're tear-jerking poetry
So glad you picked this song man. This was the first death metal song I ever heard at the age of 14. Im now 26 and play death metal around the world in a band. This is a good place to start the journey.
From the way you're talking about the songs you react to, shows how new you are to Metal :) lol
Love Death, amazing band, R.I.P Chuck :(
All their songs are amazing. There are loads of bands to listen to and explore. I'm sure you'll love the journey of this genre.
Subbed. looking forwards to more.
After listening to hundreds, if not thousands of metal songs, I have the confidence to say that this song is one of the Top 5 best metal songs ever. It's awesome
Awesome man !!!! Thank you for reacting to this.......one of my favourite bands of all time. This is off their last album recorded in 98. Go back and check out earlier stuff from Scream Bloody Gore, Leprosy, Spiritual Healing or Human. Anything you choose from this band you just can't go wrong !!!
Your intro was actually very good, how you explained your process, you are right, it is difficult, but ultimately worth it.
Hi TNT!! If it wasn’t for this band, I would not be here today!!!! Death Metal is a form of life. It needs to be understood and a lifetime of appreciation. This album is NOTHING compared to the album Human!! But the history of this band is not just listening to it , it’s living it!!!!! Death Metal is LIFE!!!!!
need to do terrorizer "fear of napalm". great death metal song with a very groovy intro
That's grindcore bro.
I hear wat you’re talking about the layers. I really like how this kind of music evolves through out the song, taking you on a journey. And most of these old bands are trained classically so they have talent and they put a shit ton of emotion into it and it’s like you can feel it and to me that’s art. Loving the content 🤘🏼
and you discovered one of the frontband of Death Metal, i recommend you to listen with lyrics (Chuck was very intelligent and write very profound lyrics) Death - Spiritual Healing, or Empty Words if you want to start whit something more softer and melodic, Chuck use different style of vocals in every album, but the instrumentals will never fail you bro
I really like what you said in the beginning and i totally agree with you on the changing rythms. To me it was probably what put me off the most in the beginning but after listening over and over again u kinda begin to understand and really feel it. Anyways nice reaction vid. 👍
So dope. I’m a metal head that appreciates some hip hop…Ty for this bro✌🏻🤙🏻
I saw them on this tour at the Whiskey-Go-Go in '98. Hammer fall and a great local band called Prototype opened up. I was only a few feet from the stage. What can I say? I was mesmerized! Fun fact: the drummer, Richard Christy, went on to be a writer for Howard Stern. RiP Chuck!
Death - Misanthrope
Also check out some Morbid Angel.
I've watched this particular video of yours before, but I've been on a Death kick recently so I looked for all reactions to these guys on UA-cam. Let me tell you, there aren't many. 😂 I just love how much you can appreciate the artistry of these guys. They aren't for everyone, but I think it takes a special ear and mind to appreciate them like you did. 😘
I’m positive you’ll enjoy their entire discography.
Excellent reactions, please check out something off of human or symbolic.
Without judgment is probably my all time favorite song from them... but it’s hard to choose between dozens of classics.
You have said best in your Symbolic video:
That's why i love this *ucking band,every instrument knows its place.
I think this was my very first Death song reaction.
You articulated your assessment of death metal well. There is no question this music can develop your ear immensely. I got in to death metal at a young age when it was exploding in the late 80’s and early 90’s. I will credit death metal for opening my mind and ear up to amazing musicianship from any genre. Obviously there are plenty of Neanderthal knuckle dragging bands but some of the most amazing players on the planet have a safe harbor with death metal ultimately leaving room to really creative musical art for us beard strokers to behold the flesh and the power it holds...
Yes sir... The music takes you on a journey!🤘
Excellent reaction and commentary. He gets it, or is realising the appeal. I know this is older. But this stuff is like jazz or classical or musicians music. Where you can appreciate AC/DC or even Ratt or whatever all day, but you want to go on a journey and really see what the deepest imagination and skill at a craft can produce. Thumbs way up on the thoughtful and very perceptive commentary.
R.I.P Chuck.. Too soon, too young.
Chuck would be happy to see/hear this review, man. Watch some of his interviews if you're curious as to the mind that cooks this shit up...
Not a lot of people know this but chucks last album was a different band he started called Control Denied where he just played guitar and had a clean singer sing for him, of got the album it’s a masterpiece.
So many killer tunes from Death. Crystal mountain or individual thought patterns would be great to experience with you
You most definitely need to listen to, Obituary also Outstanding and Cannibal Corpse / Amon Amarth!
Dude 18 yr old me is punching the air genuinely glad to see u enjoyed lol
Dude you should check out the band Martyr, and their album Warp Zone!!! They were basically the Canadian equivalent of Death!
I can't say I've listened to metal more than anyone else and for me it has been spread rather evenly across its history and deviations. This album draws me back over and over again. The craft is unparalleled in the whole of modern music.
Hell yes! Watching people react to bands I've dug on since forever never gets old. If you want to check out a hell of a jam, listen to Altering The Future by Death.
Lesprosy by Death is brutal!!!! Here’s some hx. The Godfather of Death Metal!! Charles Michael "Chuck" Schuldiner (May 13, 1967 - December 13, 2001) was an American singer, songwriter, and guitarist. He founded the band Death in 1983 and was their lead vocalist until his death in 2001. His obituary in the January 5, 2002 issue of UK's Kerrang! magazine said that "Chuck Schuldiner was one of the most significant figures in the history of metal."[1] Schuldiner was ranked No. 10 in Joel McIver's book The 100 Greatest Metal Guitarists in 2009 and No. 20 in March 2004 Guitar World's "The 100 Greatest Metal Guitarists".[2] Schuldiner founded the publishing company Mutilation Music in 1987, affiliated with performance rights organization BMI. Schuldiner died in 2001 after a two-year battle with glioma.
crazy that the same guy wrote zombie ritual and this song. i love them both equally but it's just such an interesting evolution
I think you mentioned Cryptopsy, and if so you're absolutely right. Death has long been one of my biggest guitar and drum influences, but Cryptopsy is from some completely horrifying other dimension of heavyiness on their first 3 albums, particularly the year this came out
Love the reaction bro! Death was the start for death metal. Chuck Schuldiner was a legend. May he RIP. I'd suggest Spirit Crusher or Lack of Comprehension. Rock on brother 🤘🤘
One of my favorite Death tracks.
“They switched that up”
Bro all chuck did in his career was switching that up
Nice reaction!
Cryptopsy is a very technical, in your face, wall of sound kind of band, while Death is more progressive and sophisticated, relying more on the depth of meaning, and the song writing than just overall insane playing ability and brutality that Cryptopsy delivers.
Chuck was an observer of this dimension and spread the message to the world so we could understand too
Together as one by DEATH please with lyrics !!! that song is tuff bro , its from they album called HUMAN, The sound of perseverance is the last record from the band and its way more technical than the others bands of death metal
Together As One is a great recommendation.
I'm a huge death metal fan. If it doesn't groove at some point I don't like it. Choruses, groove, repetition are all important in making great tracks in any genre. It can all be made more complex, used in a unique way but those things are very important.
This is a later song by Death. Check out "Pull The Plug" , "Zombie Ritual" or "Denial Of Life". I love all of their music, but especially love the first few records. The soundtrack to my youth
My friend you just experienced one of the greatest bands in history. Chuck never really wanted to be lumped in with the death metal that you described. He wanted to transcend the stereotypical "death metal" and be more "progressive" as it were. As you have just heard, Chuck wrote songs that stimulate the mind with higher thinking and grander themes. Intricate rhythms, timing, dissonance, and superb musicianship was Chucks calling card. Excellent start to your progressive death metal rabbit hole. Next, I would suggest anything off of Opeth Blackwater Park
Death is both an entry, and the pinnacle.
I wouldnt call Death, entry level..maybe their early stuff. They became more and more technical as they progressed in their career. Check out Flattinng of Emotions, a technical masterpiece as well as brutal. Actually, the entire Human album is.
They’re entry level when compared to how brutal that genre can get
beautiful
You picked one of my favorites.
Omg someone who finally fucking gets it, thank you for being open minded, and I’m so happy you can appreciate this craft.
Try Death's Perennial Quest next. My all time favorite song of Chucks. Just pure beauty
Chuck Schuldiner had such good lyrics and was such an emotive guitar player. Glad you liked it. It can be a difficult genre to get into. I'd still recommend the Death song "Symbolic" as I think it's their best song... But I also think a really cool idea would be to go back to their first album (and essentially the pioneering death metal album) "Scream Bloody Gore" from 1987. Every song on that album is pretty much based off of a horror movie, so it's perfect for Halloween. The coolest song from that album IMHO is "Evil Dead" and they have an excellent fan-made music video showing clips from the 1981 Evil Dead movie: ua-cam.com/video/IEYCcW0nh4c/v-deo.html
In those days I could not find it anywhere.. Tower Records.. and it was something special
You might give Opeth a try. They were progressive death metal for their first eight albums or so (from '95-'08). Check out "Ghost of Perdition", "The Grand Conjuration", "Blackwater Park", "Heir Apparent", "Godhead's Lament", "Forest of October" just for a few to start with. It is very complex musically, but more melodic than standard death metal, with occasional sections of clean singing. Might be more accessible, from a certain POV, than straight death metal. Very moody, dark, creepy.
That moment when you suddenly think; "Fuck.. am I in too deep".
Check out 'Story to Tell'.
... Then check out Athiest - On The Slay. Similar vibe to Death.
The lyrics to me are referring to the ambition and the true feelings of the heart and the trials people go through in life saying “be prepared”
The first time I heard Death was when I was looking through the metal section at a CD store, saw Death - Human. Asked to have a listen to it. Instant love! That was around '98 I reckon.
I would say my favourite track would be Lack of Comprehension and also the instrumental track Comic Sea.
Depends how extreme you want to get as to what level of death metal.
These are the songs I would listen to get a feel, lower you go, the heavier it gets (and I love it heavy with pig squealing vocals)
Obituary - Chopped in half
Bolt Thrower - No Guts, No Glory
Morgoth - PIts of Utumno
Massacre - From Beyond
**Starting to get heavier**
Immolation - No Jesus, No beast
Deicide - Slave to the Cross
Cannibal Corpse - Gallery of Suicide
Incantation - Apocalyptic Destroyer of Angels
Nile - Ramses Bringer of War
Cannibal Corpse - Hammer Smashed Face (classic and also featured in Ace Ventura - Pet Detective)
**Next level stuff**
Prostitute Disfigurement - Left in Grisly Fashion
Human Rejection - Proceed to Terminal Isolate
Putrid Pile - Drenched in Gasoline
Awaiting the Autopsy - Backyard Autopsy (female vocalist)
Guttural Slug - Hacksaw Surgery
If you have read this this far, thanks and enjoy the death metal journey =}
You should do some of their earlier work like Mutilation, Born Dead, Leprosy, Scream Bloody Gore
Love your reactions man. Hey for another Death video, you may want to check out a live performance called
"Death - Crystal Mountain - Live in Eindhoven 1998" Other suggestions for you, check out the band Venom. Songs, "Black Metal", or "Buried Alive/Raise the Dead" One other suggestion is Celtic Frost "Circle of the Tyrants"
Hey T. I highly recommend you Death-Cristal Mountain ( Gene Hoglan on drums) & Peinkiller (Judas cover) Keep on rocking 🤘🏼🤘🏼
(T)erbassinator! Richard Christy, is a beast on drums on that album. Theres 2 more bands that orginated right down the road from Death...Obituary..The End Complete track off The End Complete album.....Morbid Angel, either Eyes to See or Where the Slime Live, off the Domination, album. Both of these albums are more of a groove death.
Death also has a cover of Judas Priest Painkiller.. you reacted to the original.. maybe try out Death's version and see how it fares
Chuck's vocals on that are insane.
insane is understatement
what a way to end their final album with that
You're awesome dude, got an instant subscribe from me.
Welcome to the family
Chuck could create extremely technical music that was also very melodic and accessible. That's hard to do, but he was a true talent both as a technical guitar player and as a composer.
I gave you a perfect idea on Cryptopsy video where to start with DEATH ->
Start with Death - Lack of comprehension. You'll like it ...a lot :D
Tho this pick is good too :D
What a nice, open minded guy, have a sub.
This track is a genuine masterpiece.
A death album you should really listen to and I highly recommend is "Human"
I would like to suggest you Archspire... Very technical, brutal, but with the type of class that you can find in oldschool death. Also, check some death-doom bands, like Asphyx, Tiamat, Paradise Lost, Hooded Menace...
Death were a great band, RIP Chuck. A few requests, as always Soilwork. You should do maybe 2 or 3 of them as their style has changed very much over the years. But here's a few great ones.
Soilwork:
Nerve
Death in General
Father and Son Watching the World go Down
The Living Infinite
Follow the Hollow
Let This River Flow
I could go in for day about them. In Flames songs My Sweet Shadow, Bullet Ride and Pinball Map are all great too.
Finally! Good approach to go back to the roots of death metal... and sure death are the godfathers... BUT ;) starting as a very punk sounding extreme thrash band, call it death metal, with their debut scream bloody gore, they developed over 7 records to a very progressive death Band... miles away from average death metal. And this is from their final album where they pushed progression to the max... not nearly root death metal.
But still the greatest extreme metal band ever!!!!
Listen to the drums, the bass chucks riffing...
this is the highest level of death metal
Going back to the roots means early death, morbid angel - chapel of ghouls, entombed anything from clandestine, obituary - chopoed in half, suffocation, dismember, deicide, carcass... stuff like that.
I was damn bored by that other song you did... for me death metal became absolutely boring except for some old Bands... and for sure mighty death who always where a big challenge on the musical technical side... just out of this world
Nice one though... maybe i could help;) now right on
You picked a good one!
ty listen to all his work
Black Dahlia Murder - In hell she waits for me
My favorite metal album.......
It's awesome that you're taking an interest in death metal. Good shit. Yes, Death was one of the founding fathers of the death metal genre. But this particular song is from Death's final album. The band was barely playing death metal at this stage. The music here is really very melodic and preoccupied with being "progressive." Death helped pioneer the death metal genre, but that was in the '80s. This song is from 1998.
Maybe check out some songs from the following Death albums...
"Scream Bloody Gore"
"Leprosy"
"Human"
This whole album is amazing...actually brilliant. Chuck was certainly one of a kind.
Spirit crusher would be the next imop.
What I thought about this song: masterpiece
There is Death Metal and there is Deathcore, also allot of Death metal bands try to out brutalize each other or shock if you will. It's a different animal when entering the realm of Death Metal(core)
I also literally learned how to play this on bass its fuckin insane tbh
To really go back in the history of deathmetal a good starting point would be the band Possessed and their album "Seven Churches".
Death is great too, even though i'm not too much into deathmetal, especially american deathmetal.
VOICE OF THE SOUL
