    I have been really enjoying watching you evolve into a metal head over the years! my mom really was into reaction videos and you would always would have stuff that my mom didnt know and would never listen to so watching her reactions as you reacting will always be something I will always remember fondly. after she passed I couldnt take watching reaction videos except for yours.
    Deftones was one of the bands that she actually liked.
    I want to suggest to you one song by them that I havent seen you react to by them as it was the first song I ever by them that hooked me in. Be Quiet and Drive. it actually was the acoustic version. then listen to the album version. it still gives me goose bumps.
    other then that I would suggest fear factory. I have a good feeling you will like :)
    Thank you for being you!

    This band has made a lot of cool songs. It's great that this song is titled "Subtle Change" while having multiple abrupt, dramatic transitions in style and sound. It's just a shame this band lost their lead vocalist, his deep growl really filled out the sound.

    I _reeeallllllly_ love the writing with Rivers of Nihil. They have more softer sections with that phenomenal bass, and then the heavy sections go balls to the wall with drums and pounding guitars.
    Add in the sax, and the ethereal elements and you have such a unique sound that I just _LOVE!_

    Aloha Geebz. It's been awhile since I last checked your content. Glad you're still giving us your wisdom. I wanted to share with you a band I just discovered and have become obsessed. There's no other way to describe it. I might be turning into a teenager. Who knows. It's called: "The Warning". Some people call it Baby Metal, as they are three young sisters who play rick and sing. Personally, I think they rock. And I'm an OGT Tool fan. Their production values and sound ate top notch. They have a long video on YT, a show in Mexico City from 2022 that's just awesome from beginning to end. You should check them out, and invite another army into your channel: TWA (The Warning Army). They've been together for 10 years, 3 indie releases plus one major record release on 2022 and another this summer. They have opened for Halestorm, Guns N'Roses, Foo Fighters and Muse, among other acts. And are slowly getting bigger. They are better live. From that Mexico City Show check Animosity, then Dust to Dust (or 23), and then Evolve. Actually, you could pick any song of the setlist from that CDMX show. They are mostly 3-4 minutes songs. You won't regret it and The Warning Army would love your take. Enjoy!

I didn't get them, i did pick up a squier fender acoustic guitar... because when i saw it i heard king crimson's peace a theme in my head. time to learn how to play the guitar.

    I would like to make a recommendation that is totally different from what you've done so far, but I'm sure you'll appreciate it and love to discover something really unique.
    It's - Ivo Papasov - Bulchenska Ratchenitsa (Bride's Ratchenitsa)
    Steve Vai has a documentary of a song he did in tribute to them after hearing Ivo Papasov and his band and got inspired.
    Hopefully I'll see you give it a listen some day! :D

      I saw them supporting Between The Buried And Me. I'd be lying if said I wasn't a little disappointed, but in their defense, BTBAM blew me away. Plus RON had lost their lead singer so the bassist had taken over that role, but he had dropped out of the tour for family issues. They had a guest vocalist and the bass was on backing tracks. But again, BTBAM was top notch and Thank You Scientist killed it as well, so the show was worth it.
