- Опубліковано 21 вер 2024
- As y'all know, Falling In Reverse is generally not my cup of tea. However, the composition and vocal work on "Zombified" is absolutely top-tier. Ronnie Radke balances bravado and and nuance in an excellent balance in all of his performances, and this is no exception. Lets hang out while I react to and analyze Falling In Reverse Zombified!

when ronnie threw the mic stand to a zombie its a reference when he did that in a concert and a teen went to hospital for that
Mark going, "everybody shut up. we're listening to that again" haha love it! i feel ya dude, that part makes you move!
I spit up my drink when he said that.
@@philb323 I choked on my fucking salad from laughter
That shit gave me chills lol
It made me laugh then get up to lost it. I had to headbang after that
“Everybody shut up, we are listening to this again” lmao 🤣 I loved it! Great reaction 👏🏼
Glad you enjoyed!
That was fucking hilarious 🤣🤘
Hey all, the editor here!
This is a re-upload of the video which premiered today. For some reason that render used an earlier save-file leading to the problems people witnessed during the premiere. Unfortunately comments on that video aren't visible anymore, so feel free to repost those again! My apologies for this!
I got to go to their concert in Nashville last weekend and he played this second to last in the set and he actually expressed his surprise in the fact that most of us knew the lyrics to the song already saying "you guys are insane, I know I've written some bangers but this dropped 8 days ago." It was such a fun experience to have in it played in person!
Damn I am so jealous. I wanted to see them in Nashville soooo bad
@@hannahgp it was such an amazing show, the energy and atmosphere of the performance was worth the 5+ hour drive. I really hope you get to see them next time they're close to you!
@@kidikokurada Man, I bet it was awesome. And same, hopefully they won’t wait too long after this tour to do another one!
Hey, if you think this song is a banger I truly don't understand how come your viewers didn't ask you to react to "Popular Monster" (they have similiarly structured breakdown) :P good reaction!
Ronnie has had a rough life
From coming from a rough home to being addicted to drugs at a early age to going to prison (for something he didn't do) and in-between all that being in his previous band then being kicked out then starting Falling in Reverse
Now he's trying to be a more positive role model for people and really trying to change his life around
how much time did he do incarcerated? everyone deservers a second chance. Did being locked up inspire a brand new life? a have some friends that are locked up and it can either destroy you and go through the revolving door or you build a life for yourself, it is up to the individual
He went to prison for being at the scene of a murder. Which makes him an accessory to murder and he refused to talk to the cops so he went to prison.
So yes he did in fact do that and deserves the jail time he got
@@Majorkip thank you for fact checking me! Despite that he got out and decided to completely change his life around for the better and that's what makes him so inspiring to me
@@Majorkip Just to be super accurate, he went to prison for concealing a dangerous weapon (brass knuckles). He's recently spoken about it on his TikTok :)
@@poppyparker6382 practically anything can be a “dangerous weapon” depending on how it’s used. Also, aren’t all weapons dangerous?
Super late to the party but it’s so nice to hear people who actually know what they’re talking about explaining the talent that Ronnie has with his vocals (and creating music in general). I understand he’s a really controversial character but I find it SO childish when people say he has no talent just because they don’t like him. It’s just really refreshing to hear you judge the music for the music and not be influenced by all the other stuff. So thank you ☺️
I'm a vocal nerd, and I absolutely LOVE how Will Ramos says "we rot face down" in To The Abyss. The way 'rot' goes 'rooawt', as well as how it rises in pitch to make the lowering pitch of 'face down' more powerful.
I *love* how the part "pray to imitation gods" comes out. It's just so...good. And quite a bit onwards as well.
Or in to the hellfire will says "put me to rest" but comes out "put me to raest"
To the hellfire “can you feel et? These piens and nEEduls”
to the abyss is an absolute banger at all! i'm so exited for the album
We’re not gonna talk about how FIR has been making itself a super-band, now having Luke on drums and that BEAST Wesley on bass and backup vocals?!
That fucking dude on bass bro 🤯🔥
Yes actually. In popular monster by FIR he says “we’re falling apart” the third time in the last chorus. omg it GETS me every time. It’s one of those where you melt when you hear it. I freaking love him.
Same!!!!
@@letitiad8440 It literally stands out so well and it’s just one of those moment where you’re like “my favorite part is coming up” and I have replayed it at least 5 times before the song ends every time I hear it 😂
Yasssss. I'm pretty sure that's my favourite part of the song too
You literally are the only person that I’ve heard that talks about diphthongs. I went from Detroit and moved to Germany and had a buy a German Dictionary to learn how to order food otherwise I would starve and I learned about the vowels of diphthongs
I love this guy... Not only do you genuinely listen but you know what you're talking about and give great feedback... Keep up the good work there is so much more music of Ronald Radke you need to hear
Thanks for watching dude!
Enjoyed listening from the vocal mechanics/control side of it, you made it really clear what was going on!!
Great video man 😁👌
Thanks for watching dude!
I had to rewatch the chair kick. So funny. Love all the FIR reactions I’ve watched so far. Ronnie is beyond talented.
I'm a late discoverer of Falling In Reverse (and hence also to your reaction video :) ) but I just love them. It's exactly like you say, and it was nice to get my thoughts confirmed. He's so talented and the way he varies the vocals in different ways through out the songs makes it so interesting and just adds another level. He's next level!
Ronnie really is the best at what he does
I Love the easter egg of him throwing the mic stand (something that he did to a crowd YEARS ago)
Ronnie actually does a ton of False Cord lows and fry mids back and forth in their song The Guillotine IV (The Final Chapter), might be an interesting one for you
One of the most badass songs he's done
We have to get him to react to the original one when he was with Escape the Fate, it’s so good
@@lithiumwhiskey1891 he won't I been begging him to listen to Main de gloire for over a year. Best metalcore band ever created hands down
@@Konfide4043 still gotta try, and with enough voices saying the same thing he’d listen I think
@@lithiumwhiskey1891 right. If you haven't heard main de gloire check them out. Start with coven, then labyrinth, and finally, 'run'. *Shutters*
15:39 me anytime I’m with friends and I hear a breakdown I’ve heard 400 times
I saw FIR live in East Providence this year (their first show since covid) and he came out and this was his first track. It was so bad ass.
Ronnie will LOVE this reaction if he sees it! As a vocalist, my favorite part (that seems to go unnoticed by reactors) is the high note that he sustains as a backing vocal at 11:53. That is a LEGIT slide and a difficult place in the voice to do that. For example, starting that higher (to me) is actually much easier technically and Rodney's voice is very similar to my own in terms of structure/timber/strengths... although his is OBVIOUSLY much better than mine! 😆
Very beefy note for being that high... he is extremely gifted AND very technically sound... a true student of sound. That is a VERY rare combo to do all of this at such a high level.
My currect top-5 favorite singers, in no order: Ronnie Radke, David Phelps, Dennis Tvardick, Drew Mailloux and Spencer Stoleto.
Isn't it Ronnie, not Rodney? lol
This song is less about Ronnie's life and more about the world we live in today. Especially the past 6 years or so from the start of the tumult of politics in our nation. Every year it's gotten worse and Ronnie is speaking on that, at a risk. Big props to Ronnie for addressing this and risk getting "canceled" himself. It really shows a lot about his character. Definitely a dude I wish I could've met and grew up with. Seems like a super down to earth and physical person.
MIght just add this: Ronnies got "canceled" times and times before, at least it was tried to cancel him....I think from all i know about him and his past, hes got his experiences with the topic on a very personal level...
But i couldnt agree more with your comment. Im not an American, i live in Germany and we have our very own political problems to say it this way, but obviously we get to see your turmults in politics and everything else.
Thats why i think this song can also be interpretated as not only for one specific country/region, it can be put on every part of the world, maybe the world, real and "digital world". Okay obviously the "welcome to america" line kind of ruins my thoughts here :D but you surely know what i mean. This world is going crazy these past years in particular, just glad people like Ronnie dont shut their mouth. Hes a genourine good guy, he talks a lot of truth and he has an unmatched talent. Thats for sure.
your little chair kick was precious and made me love this channel even more
I’m super late to your channel but I love how intellectual you are on everything. Love falling in reverse and I think that’s what lead me here. Keep up the good work bro.
"You're Time Is Gonna Come"- Zeppelin, On the line "It's faded away, can't feel you anymore" I go berserk every time I hear it!
Glad for a reupload. Watched the premier but will have to watch it again with the fixed audio 🤘
After you got a direct shoutout from one of the record labels in the recent TankTheTech video on reaction channels I had to come over and see what you were all about. I'm glad I did as this was fun and educational and an awesome reaction. Subscribed!
Ronnie got some grief for a mic stand being thrown into a crowd (the zombie being skewered by the stand) and he also had someone throw a F... Ronnie Radke shirt on stage at a concert (which a certain car top zombie seems to be wearing as his head is vaporized ). Those are just two of the Easter eggs from this song.
It was actually a guy wearing one I believe, front row at his show. He asked the dude who really wins after he bought a ticket and spent time in line all to stand there looking like an asshole lmao
Holy shit, I thought the sword was coming out there for a second, that breakdown was pretty sweet
to be fair talking about the tension and that with his screaming and everything, he has been doing this for almost , if not for about 20 years, so he definitely has a good understanding of what his limits and knowledge of his instrument is
Finally presenting a tune by my boy Ronnie! Much respect. He make some of the coolest hooks in songs, and those FIR trademark drops are insane.
Really enjoyed your reaction again!
In NiN’s “the Big comedown” the way Trent sings the last word of this sentence always makes me happy and I’m glad other people have similar moments to words haha
There is no place I can go, there is no place I can hide \ It feels like it keeps coming from the inside
Also your last half of the reaction is brilliant! You seemed every bit as happy as I was when I heard this song the first time haha
Awesome reaction again dude.
Ronnie / Falling in Reverse have a lot of heavy songs/breakdowns, just need to find them. He does interweave epic choruses or raps in those songs, but there are a heap of heavy metalcore tracks.
Commenting for the algorithm and so this channel can blow up. Much deserved!
Thanks bro!
This has to be my favorite Falling in Reverse song right now I am so glad that you checked this out Mark. I would to love to see your reaction to Like A Villian by Bad Omens and it would be cool to see what you think of their previous single The Death Of Peace Of Mind
I'll check it out!
Your necrogodzilla comment made me want to request a review of the new necrogoblicon song. I think you will love everything about it
Duuuuude!!! Vola is so unique and one of my favorite bands also.
DAMN RIGHT!
Hey that non normal crowd is where I came from but I also love the heavies and love you mixing it up keep it up great stuff. Also your excitement for the breakdown had me rolling 😂😂
I love a vocal coach knowing a little about phonetics. You're great. A phoneme is the smallest unit of sound, a morphene is the smallest unit of meaning. Diphthong think two letters one sound so it's two vowel sounds combined to make a new vowel (ah-ee to make long I).
haha say what you want we know you are more into this band than you admit. We see how giddy you get when you review them haha. You have got to do Popular Monster you will LOVE IT!
He never reviewed it sadly...
I love how you analyze and explain the technical aspects of Radke's voice, and how much you appreciate his mastery of his craft. I know there is a lot to take in and disect in a reaction video with this level of musicianship. You clearly have a passion for vocals and a gift for communicating how these techniques work. I understand that and have the same passion for piano. I discovered mine a little late in life. Anyway, my only criticism of your reaction is the visuals are just as amazing as the voice, and music. I would like to hear you touch more on the deep meaning of the zombie cheerleader and mirror for example. Im sure you later go back and see these things. You called swat truck an ambulance for example. The mic stand very significant just these little details that give the song a little more badassery I feel deserve more of your attention and I would like your analysis of those as well. PTCBMF STUDIOS PRESENTS: WILD STALLIONS
Ok, I’m sure everyone has requested Popular Monster, but I think you would absolutely love that song.
Love the reactions man! So I just wanted to let you know in case you didn’t already, Falling In Reverse has an entire album containing Ronnie doing a lot of harsh vocals. It’s called Fashionably Late and I HIGHLY recommend it.
Also, please check out this new band Alleviate, I think you’ll really enjoy breaking them down!
I'll check them out!
Amazing reaction friend! We loved it! Ronnie is a fricken artist.
Still hoping you get a chance to check out Ice Nine Kills - Funeral Derangements. I still promise its by far Spencer's best display of all his talents- cleans, harsh and growls are just insane. We promise you will nerd out over it.
Take care and look forward to whatever you put out next!
I absolutely loved watching your breakdown of the singing techniques used. It was so enjoyable and informative. Would love to see you do a breakdown of some of FiR other songs that blend genres in interesting and unexpected ways. If you havent already, you should listen to the trilogy (Losing My Mind, Losing My Life, and Drugs) as well as Rolling Stone and Champion.
Omg. Man you are amazing. I love you getting into the breakdown and it just taking over. Then you give your chair a light kick. The best example of "disrespect your surroundings" gently. Haha. Never related to something so much. Like ugh the beat is just taking over and want let go but I don't want to break the few nice things I have around me. Chef's kiss. 🤣🤣🤣 Hope that made sense.
When you kicked the chair… I just about died 😂😂
VOLA is god damn amazing, I love all of their songs!
Damn right!
i'm feeling what you're saying about the vowel in "hypnotized" i double backed this a lot
i got certain moment in Lorna Shore's "...and i return to nothingness"
at exactly 3:02 Will is doing a super clean and deep growl which is just earthshaking because it's standing like a little bit alone in the middle of the music
I'm a drummer and play guitar, but watching your videos mark, make me wanna learn to sing, yell, growl etc! Lol
"everybody just shut up" best line ever lol :)
This reminds me of "School Of Rock". 🤘🏼
I can see that!
Dude, your insight and analysis is so detailed, it’s a pleasure to listen. Subscribed 😎
Congratulations! Celebrate with your lady.
Thanks!
What an excellent reaction!! Very helpful 👍
Thanks dude!
Looks that kill crue fest video right before the solo Vince unleashes the most perfect scream that just trumps everything he's done before
15:40... "Eveybody just shut up, we're listening to that again" 😂 Yesssss. lol
Lobed the review. Every other reaction I've seen the commentors have been going on about the supposed cancel culture happening. You going past it was wonderful.
I agree not a big Falling in Reverse fan but i love this song and Popular Monster
I'd like to see you react to one of his older songs-----The Bitter End. Has some of my favorite vocal acrobatics in there.
Again, the poor chair. At least it wasn't a sword this time 🤣
And this wasn't even the black and white sacrificial chair!
Mark needs to dance in all the videos. so good bro.
Haha, thanks!
Great video!
Would love to see more Tallah vocal video reactions with Justin!
Anyone else think the riff sounds like One Step Closer?
Love the reaction! Have you listened to Popular Monster? Or the trilogy Losing My Mind/Losing My Life/Drugs ? If not I highly recommend.
Is it weird if I love how happy Mark looks in the thumbnail lol
happy anniversary bud! love your work and reactions... I've been doing metal vocals for like 20 years and look to you and fellow youtubers for inspo... have a good weekend dude... see you on the flip!
New follower! Dude- first off, get ready to be spammed bc anyone that can do metal the way you do, (And I've only heard a wee bit so far) I trust their opinion. Second, I'm obsessed with Ronnie Radke and his voice. You haven't even reached the peak of what this man can do! *Watch the world burn* is literally a masterpiece and you need to hear it! He really flexes in every way possible and I'm stressing this to you! YOU NEED TO WATCH IT! After that... Voices in my head, Popular Monster and then listen to his latest, a Papa Roach reimagining ...last resort. 😮 Record every second! 🖤
Ronnie is the bomb man. Love everything he puts out
Need to check out this new band called DragonCorpse. It’s a deathcore/power metal mix. The vocalist just put out a one take video that needs your reaction because he’s on another level
If you wanna to hear more of Ronnie's screaming listen to the song "Champion" It's an older song but still a good one
this reaction made me SO happy.
THE CHAIR KICK SENT MY SOUL OUTTA MY BODY OMG 😂😂😂
Hit the video as soon as I got the notification! Currently at work but I’ll definitely be back after to watch the whole thing :)
I only just noticed that background vocal at 11:53 that raises up slightly!
I love how you kicked the chair during the breakdown 😂
Lacuna Coil Reaction Please .. Reckless or Layers of Time .. Cristina Scabbia's Voice is Amazing!
We need a VCTMS reaction 🔥🔥🙏🏻🙏🏻
I have watched ur reactions to Drug in me is reimagined and Im not vampire (revamped) and I must say ur reactions are most pure out of all reactions, "Hi, my name is Ronnie" hitted me too
first time here, great video!!! love the song, and REALLY appreciate the vocal tips and info along the way!
Mark, I just want to say that I'm a huge fan and thank you. I've been into metal for the better part of 20 years ever since I heard band called Zao. (I'd love to see your reaction to one of their songs, maybe Xenophobe or Ship of Theseus?) They're the reason I wanted to be a vocalist and (because I didn't know what I was doing) I screwed up my voice. Harsh vocals have always fascinated me and I love hearing your analysis of how/why. Also, you have introduced me to so many new bands. Looking forward to new content and keep up the awesome work.
Falling In Reverse - Watch The World Burn. the back part of the song you'll love
I love how after you discovered the sound at 26:08 in another video, you find a way to seemingly squeeze it into every video since lol sounds sick as hell btw. I like it. And it’s funny to watch
Oh, the cheek pull stuff I've been doing in my own music for YEARS now. Was just a single tongue position in that video. I'm glad you like it! :)
Hey a new viewer here! If you want a song where Ronnie is screaming/growling more I would recommend you reacting to ‘Don’t Mess with Ouija Boards’ I know it’s an old song but it really shows how he’s improved over the years and just how long he has been working on his vocals
Said it before and I’ll say it again I still love seeing you step out and check out something different
First vid of yours I’ve seen and I love the content.
In answer to the question, Higinia by Blessthefall (the irony is great)
Best song ever on 2022 ronnie voice is amazing and then the breakdown always nasty & it's an ep album coming out of the band called zombiefied i love this band so much 🤘🔥
I see this is a year old reaction. Loved it by the way. New here but Ronnie Radke / Falling in Reverse brought me here the other day.
Since this is a year old I will assume that by now you will have heard the "controversy". I am to to the whole thing man and what I figure so far is what I hear Ronnie saying here. He has gotten older, matured, changed and although still outspoken for sure mellowed out. I don't see him starting anything but he refuses to just ignore people talking shit.
Anyway... love his all round talent. There are some videos out there that kind of break down the differnt things people who want to dis him are holding onto. Most are just wrong and if right he has acknowledged and gone on. Like in the video.. there is the one part where he throws the microphone stand and kills a zombie with it going through its head. Many MANY years ago he stupidly (not with malice) threw 3 micorphone stands out into the audience. One person that got hit by one had to be taken to the hospital. He took responsibility of stupidity of it and learned from it. (he adds those little easter eggs in his vids) He is a smart guy and a wicked sense of humor.
With your experience I would love to see some reactions to some OLD Falling in Reverse or Escape the Fate with Ronnie doing fry vocals and false cords!!
Say what you want about Ronnie personally, but it's really hard to deny his voice and songwriting ability.
I'm still putting in a vote for "popular monster"!
It would be awesome to see you do Affiance - Peace of Mind.
The vocal part right after the solo just blows me away. He's probably my favorite vocalist. I think you'd love them.
I know this video is old, and you haven't reacted to Falling in Reverse recently, but you should watch Ronald. I think we can learn a lot from your reaction.
Love from Italy
The starting riff seems a bit similar to a certain Disturbed song and the little vocal percussion is a definite ode to David, damn the execution though💥.
Please react to one of Wintersun's songs. Preferably either Time, Sons of Winter and Stars orLand of Snow and Sorrow. There are wonderful studio rehearsal videos of all of them.
"Everyone just shut up, we're listening to that again. JEEESSSUUUSSSS" 🤣
The breakdown gives me some Wage War vibes, great reaction to a great song!🤘
Chair kickin goodness!
Hell ya man, I was hoping you would do this one. Great break down. 🍺
I'm not a super vocal nerd, but I dabble. That said, I feed one the vocal notes in Halestorm's "Familiar Taste of Poison" like it's my last meal.
