These guys are helping to keep Rock alive and in front of younger audiences, playing at huge festivals. I wish them all the luck in the world. Brilliant young band
To be fair it's not really dying, there are still new rock bands coming out and also older ones such as Metallica, staind, godsmack etc that are still making music to this day
@@gomi350z ah….but the key here is what I said; keeping it in front of YOUNGER audiences. Unless we can do that, then it will eventually become a very niche genre. I’ve been to several rock concerts in the past six months or so, and the average age is 50-60 something…..
@@w.geoffreyspaulding6588 average age depends on the band. Dad rock I can see that being 50-60yr old. Meanwhile I've been to breaking Benjamin concert and most of the people were 20-30. And I was at a Godsmack and Staind concert which average was 30-40. Age doesn't have to do with the genre it loosely correlates to the age of the band and when they were at their highest. And rock is a loose term anyway, most bands that would be considered "rock" are actually a form of Metal, i.e late 90s early 2000s "rock" bands are actually classified as NuMetal
Im an old (62) classic rocker and these guys have my full attention and even bring tears of joy to my eyes. Thanks for this reaction. Sounds like rock isnt dead after all!
Yeh, me too. I almost cried when I heard them for the first time and I got high listening to "Heat Above", listened to it in a loop for a few days. Honestly at first, I thought it's some 70s or 80s band, but then I also thought if they were, then how come I never heard them before, n I'm 49... These guys are like a fresh breath of air, so comforting...
I’m same age and agree 100%. They’ve stirred a rock ‘n roll renaissance within me, making me feel so alive again. God bless the ‘70s and god bless them. What a lovely gift for us!
When I first heard the opening scream of their first hit song Highway Tune, I was driving, and I almost had an accident….thinking “how is it possible that Zep has a song I’ve missed hearing?” It was uncanny. Since then, they have found their own sound… become more prog. Now I hear allot of Geddy Lee in Josh’s vocals. They are a talented young band, and I hope they have a long and bright career.
@@jodibennett-bradshawrbtmph836 that’s so weird. When I first looked at your comment, it read LOL…and then a long space and then 7 minutes in tiny print. Now that’s gone. Perhaps it was saying that you responded 7 minutes ago, but it was in tiny print and not in the normal place where it shows how long ago a comment was posted. Like right now it shows 6 hours ago that you responded with your LOL comment. It will remain a mystery I guess
One of the great things about being a GVF fan is seeing videos like yours where you get to relive the moment you first heard them…it’s just pure shock and joy. And they are as good live…if you get a chance to see them, I highly recommend it. My favorite song of theirs is “Age of Machine”. Side note: as good as the keys are on this song, Sam also plays incredible bass. And when he is on keys, he plays bass on foot pedals.
Yes! Greta fans absolutely love when someone new finds out about them, just like others have said above, because we love to see the surprise on your faces! It’s so great because we know they’ve been Gretafied!😁
Omg YES!!.. I LOVE watching other people react to GVF for the first time!. Pause, rewind, haha.. it took me 17 minutes to get through my first sighting of them, it was on the Metallica special All Within My Hands on Paramount +.. it was Safari Song..
THIS is why I love watching people react to Greta Van Fleet, they all make that face as soon as Josh starts singing and I love it. This really is a special band. Bringing back the lost art of real and classic rock. Hands down my favorite current band. I have never felt the need to want to go to a live concert before I discovered them a couple years ago. I hope you go further down this rabbit hole because they do not have a single bad song. Check out the entirety of “ Battle at Garden’s Gate” or dive into their older stuff starting with their debut album “ From the Fires” ( which is very different from their newer stuff but still good), you will not be disappointed. 😄
Yes! They are wonderful humans! I love them so much! They have saved my life (really bad days) more than once. Just, their music...it's like medicine, ya now?!
For those who don’t know; the band refers to their fans as “The Peaceful Army” so the line about the peaceful army joining the band is about them feeling so close and connected to their fans. A sweet tribute to their supporters
I love when they're so impressed just by the opening chords, and knowing they don't even realize the next thing around the corner that's going to blow their mind! :)
One of my favorite songs. They are all siblings except for the drummer which is a childhood friend. The singer and guitarist are twins. They are all multi instrumental and self thought. Enjoy the rabbit hole, you won’t be disappointed.
As much as I love "classic rock" of the 60's and 70's, it's in some ways sad listening to the old greats over and over, because there has been nothing new in the rock world since the 90's that really impressed me and made me feel the excitement of hearing a great rock song in the old days...until Great van Fleet. Yeah, I've heard all the criticism. There is hardly any rock music in the charts, and most of the pop/rap sucks. So, to me they are a welcome addition to the groups I like. And, his voice is really great!
I just discovered GVF about a month ago and had the exact same reaction. My first listen was When The Curtain Falls and it was a jaw drop. I then listened to Heat Above and got full goose bumps. I have been waiting for this band for a few decades now. I don’t know how I hadn’t heard of them sooner as well! I can’t wait to see them live!
GVF songs pick you up, then take you on a journey, then they set you down gently. They have literally saved my life during some low days. I love them so much. And they have so much love in their hearts to give to their fans. Josh is like a little sprite! He rides on his bodyguard's shoulders & throws white roses to audience before or during every show. Just delightful!
PLEASE, do more if these immensely talented young guys!!!! Candlelight Sessions "Broken Bells", "Tears of Rain", "Weight if Dreams", "Light My Love", just released "Meeting the Master", "Sacred the Thread"...SO much more to enjoy from these guys!!!! Subscribing to watch you experience more of their greatness!!!! 🥰🥰GVF🥰🥰
YESSSSSSS!!!! Broken Bells Candlelight sessions!! Tears of Rain Candlelight sessions. A lot of the studio live performances were due to COVID lockdowns. So there are different versions of the songs on the Battle at Garden's Gate, bcoz the band wanted to provide these as gifts to The Peaceful Army! 🙂 Cheers!
G!!! I can't tell you how ecstatic I am to see this! These guys are MY WORLD. I am a fanatic. The only new band I've like in the past 20 years. Anything you wanna know, hit me up lol That man right there Josh is one of the greatest singers. His range and power are incredible, and he sings perfectly live every night. Jake is a guitar god in the making. They are what everyone else is not in today's music. So, where shall we start...When The Curtain Falls, Safari Song, Flower Power, Broken Bells (Candlelight Sessions), Lover Leaver Taker Believer, Built By Nations, Age Of Man, Mountain Of The Sun, Tears Of Rain, Light My Love, and my personal favorite, The Weight Of Dreams. It has a roaring 7 minute solo at the end it's glorious. Also, they've just put out two new singles coming from their new album coming out in July. Meeting The Master and Sacred The Thread. On second thought, just listen to them all. 😂 Don't look at my social media, it's full of spoilers, but hit me up if you have questions! Let's go down this hole, you won't be sorry!
This sounds very well steeped in 70s style prog rock but they don't sound like they're trying to emulate any particular band other than themselves. The musicality and singing are top notch. You helped me discover a band. Thanks, SalvoG! Interesting how the band are bejeweling their outfits - somewhat like the photographic artist Franz Szony. Total respect. Why not explore bejeweled creativity? David Bowie and Peter Gabriel and Todd Rundgren for a stint did funky things with costumes, makeup, and jewelry back in the day.
I was stopped in my tracks when I heard this band the first time. They are smashing it! And they don't come across as angry or nasty or bad. They are good, respectful people. Refreshing. I love this band.
Welcome to the peaceful army! My daughter was playing them and I was HOOKED from the first song I thought it was Geddy too. They have become a cross-generational band because us old folks have been sick of the crap music for past few decades. GVF is so refreshing to hear good rock again. And the younger gens are discovering good rock because of them. She and I have gone to two of their concerts and they are just as perfect live as their recordings. Looking forward to their new album and tour in July.
I'm 71 and i love them. They have suchba great sound. Josh reminds me of the late Freddy M. He also does that yodeling and other songs to that's just how he sings what's interesting he doesn't sound like that sound would come out of his voice when he's just talking in interviews. Im sure by now you have Listen to LIGHT MY LOVE I go around singing it. I just found these guys Im so glad. Now i have to get some of their CDs.
Wasn't that fun!!? These guys are so great and I love the sound of the combination of instrumentation and his voice!! Thanks for your time on this one. Ready for another now!!
I'm 51 and have experienced over 1000 live concerts and shows and this band live was my Favorite! Hits me on All levels and I'm All in for GVF. They are the greatest thing since the 80s ❤
“Breath of fresh air” is exactly how I described it. Great musically, melody, unique rock voice. And personally OK’d by Robert Plant of Led Zeppelin. He love em
Loved your reaction to this. ☺️ I love watching people’s reactions when they FIRST hear them and feel, YES, another member for The Peaceful Army. ☺️ Reactions usually start with the listener being very impressed with the music and then when Josh begins to sing, well, their jaw usually hits the floor, just like yours 😂😂😂 At 65, I just saw them live in Dublin, Thursday past and they were absolutely incredible! Please, please, please, do yourself a favour and go see them live, they’re just amazing young men.
I found these guys not too long ago as well...I can't stop listening!! My first impression of his voice was Getty Lee as well!!! I love to see people's reactions when hearing them for the first time. I am 100 percent sure I had the same reaction!!
Thank you! What a great song! First time hearing, but just have to love it! I love how you enjoy in music, it's beautiful to watch! Greetings from Serbia.
These guys are a fresh and welcomed anomaly to the music scene . They Grew up on 70's rock both classic and prog. They are so immensley talented and clever enough to have combined the best of the classic rock of the past and given it a new modern twist .Thus re-introducing an entire new generation to REAL music. Un-ahsamed, unclassified, and pure raw talent. Josh's voice reminds of a cross between Geddie Lee, and Freddie Mercury , with a little Janis Joplin thrown in for good measure. you young musicians better pay close attention to these guys. While you are out there trying to become the next overnight flash in the pan social media star. These guys are giving you FREE LESSONS in how to be the next LEGENDS!
AHHHHH I’m so excited you are listening to them!!!! My favorite band. You have a rabbit hole of amazing music to listen to. Amazing musicians. For more songs I would recommend their newest music video for meeting the master. And then you can not go wrong with any song from their album TBAGG (gardens gate) my personal favorite is trip the light fantastic and broken bells.
These guys are so fire! I've been listening to "Meeting the Master" for the last 2 weeks. So Talented feels like the first time I heard Zepp or Rush all over again 25-30 years later.
Was surprised to hear you say “here in Michigan”; had no idea you were a fellow Michigander! These guys are crazy talented. They have such a classic rock sound for being so young. You should do a deep dive and check out their first stuff and work your way through.
love gvf!! so awesome to see your reaction once josh starts singing. that's me every time I listen to them!! you should listen to weight of dreams next!!
Early on...very Robert Plant like singing!! Most notably on Higheay Tune and Safari Song. Also do When The Curtain Falls...one of my favorite by them. At 63 years old...this is the ONLY newer band I listen to and I will be going to see them in concert!!
Hey…good for you! Hope you enjoy! I go to smaller venues and theaters, but I won’t go to a huge concert where most of the crowd will be young. Only because I’ve heard that it’s a sea of cell phones and people talk all through the performance. I hope for your sake I’m wrong. Hell…I’m going to see Joe Bonamassa in August. We’ll see how it goes.
Sal, I would suggest listening to the song that introduced them to the music world; Highway Tune from 2017. At the opening scream, your jaw is going to hit your desk: You will SWEAR you are hearing Robert Plant in his youth. They’ve come a long way since then and their music is now more complex and varied, but there’s nothing quite like the shock of hearing Josh sing that opening note on their first hit
@@helenespaulding7562 we may both be wrong heres wiki Greta Van Fleet is an American rock band from Frankenmuth, Michigan, formed in 2012. It consists of Kiszka brothers: twins Josh and Jake, and Sam; and Danny Wagner. So 2 sets of brothers
@@sandifulmor8327 that’s what I’d heard too. Obviously the twins are fraternal, since they are most definitely NOT identical. The guitarist is very good looking. Josh is not, imo. Plus Josh is short in stature whereas his twin is not.
Lol the look on your face at the first belted out lyrics is what i imagine so many of us looked like hearing this the first time 🗣️🎶🎙️im so hooked on this song
Just found them myself a month ago, they are brilliant no doubts , musically they are genius, vocally amazing although its not going to be to everyone's taste but im in agreement when done right sounds amazing the voice on this guy is awesome the pitch the tone the control the range the flow he does it so easy but it sound easy , but not only that the way they put it all together they are very very talented bunch of guy's they're unique or different regardless of the led zeppelin influences they are their own band , its fresh and very creative. To be fair all singers and bands are inspired by ones that have gone before its just natural , so to b fair to these guys it's not fair to say they copy led zeppelin as many say they have a sound if 70 's but they are original all bands have elements of things that inspire them thats natural but these guys are greta van fleet .nuff said
Please please keep reviewing greta. Start maybe with 'written in gold' (only on youtube and no visuals) - they were only about 17 and younger when they made it at rust belt studios. They were still school kids. Thanks for a great review - and welcome to the gretaverse.
Please! Please! Please! Friend, do your self the biggest favor, ever and listen to them live. Not in a video that you can see anywhere. Find some of their live content you will be 100% blown away! It doesn’t matter which album you choose. Any of them are going to impress you just based on how big your eyes got in the beginning. I could recommend so many… So I won’t because everybody has a different sound that we’re looking for. You will not find one song that you dislike. I promise you! Have fun getting to know Greta Van Fleet! 🎶 I will mention the concert in Sacramento California in March was amazing and they do perform a few titles from their new album that will be released in July named Starcatcher. But for some thing fun, I’m gonna say check out a festival live and Red Rocks live…Amazing.
“These guys get into me as much as I get into them, it seems. It’s like a symbiotic, organic, dynamic relationship, the way I’ve evolved in my understanding of these guys and their music.” I heard someone say this while listening to GVF and I found it to be an incredibly well put explanation of how this band and their music weaves itself deep into you and the emotional/spiritual impact it has on the soul. What beautiful music!!
They are just about to start their new tour headlining at major arenas like Madison Square Garden! They are a must see live band. They will blow you away! Great reaction you have a new subscriber!
I love seeing the reaction from someone hearing GVF for the first time. It's similar to mine: Geddy Lee/Jon Anderson YES vibes. This is a new sound that captures attention from the first note. Bravo! Encore!
They are the greatest I can’t get enough of this song! When I saw you never heard them had to watch your reaction which is spot on with everyone hearing them! What tops them off ultimately they are genuinely humble and real! Been great learning about them as well
People used to say they were like an imitation of Led Zeppelin. What's the problem with that? Though, nowadays I think they've found their "lode", you know what I mean? It's delightful to listen to this band, for this last album is something remarkable with good and memorable songs - its closure is a hymn with "The Weigh of Dreams". Now we have a new album debuting - I think in July - and I can't wait to see what comes next, 'coz we had a hint with "Meeting The Master", "Sacred the Thread" and "Farewell For Now" and they are absolutely wonderful. Well, sorry for my English. I'm from Brazil and looking forward to seeing GVF do a concert here! I'll probably get hoarse for singing all their songs!
How could I never heard them before??? Exactly what I thought when I listened to them for the first time. it's coz crappy music TVs don't promote good music anymore for a couple of decades now...
Keyboards is younger brother. I love this band! They are amazing! This is a song you belt out in your car, trying, trying, trying, but never achieving those notes or that level of perfection. But sing on.....I know you can't help yourself.....just roll up your windows at the stoplights. 🙂
I love this band. Joshes vocals are insane! Can I suggest you listen to two new releases just out. Meeting the master and Sacred the thread. They are both from their new album (Starcatcher) out in July. both are amazing. Thanks
What's even more crazy is that he hits all of these notes live through every tour, they're an outstanding band
yup. no autotune. Josh doesn't need it
Can confirm. Saw them this month and Im still in shock.
Can also confirm live they are awesome and he hits those notes! I was at the Philadelphia show last Tuesday
Agree100%
He hit them last time I saw them and he apparently had tonsillitis or some shit bruh, he's goated

Same
Why do they make me cry? I never experienced this in my life. I'm older than you!

The lead singer is awesome that falsetto those yodelling sounds and it comes out so easy for him he's not straining and this song is fantastic.

14 I believe lol
Here because I'm a greta fan but wow your voice is so relaxing!!
These guys are a fresh and welcomed anomaly to the music scene . They Grew up on 70's rock both classic and prog. They are so immensley talented and clever enough to have combined the best of the classic rock of the past and given it a new modern twist .Thus re-introducing an entire new generation to REAL music.
Un-ahsamed, unclassified, and pure raw talent.
Josh's voice reminds of a cross between Geddie Lee, and Freddie Mercury , with a little Janis Joplin thrown in for good measure.
you young musicians better pay close attention to these guys. While you are out there trying to become the next overnight flash in the pan social media star. These guys are giving you FREE LESSONS in how to be the next LEGENDS!
Best rock song of the last 20 years
AHHHHH I’m so excited you are listening to them!!!! My favorite band. You have a rabbit hole of amazing music to listen to. Amazing musicians.
For more songs I would recommend their newest music video for meeting the master. And then you can not go wrong with any song from their album TBAGG (gardens gate) my personal favorite is trip the light fantastic and broken bells.
If you can Go See Them Live! Every bit as good if not BETTER LIVE! This band is LEGIT! 🙌🏽
These guys are so fire! I've been listening to "Meeting the Master" for the last 2 weeks. So Talented feels like the first time I heard Zepp or Rush all over again 25-30 years later.
Meeting the Master is a masterpiece! Can't wait for Starcatcher to drop.
They are Fantastic!!! I've been a fan for 6 years .they do not disappoint the rock n roll fan . I grew up in the 70s and it takes me back
Was surprised to hear you say “here in Michigan”; had no idea you were a fellow Michigander! These guys are crazy talented. They have such a classic rock sound for being so young. You should do a deep dive and check out their first stuff and work your way through.
love gvf!! so awesome to see your reaction once josh starts singing. that's me every time I listen to them!! you should listen to weight of dreams next!!
The Hammond B-3 organ and Leslie speaker...the sound of the 70's.
Early on...very Robert Plant like singing!! Most notably on Higheay Tune and Safari Song. Also do When The Curtain Falls...one of my favorite by them. At 63 years old...this is the ONLY newer band I listen to and I will be going to see them in concert!!
Hey…good for you! Hope you enjoy! I go to smaller venues and theaters, but I won’t go to a huge concert where most of the crowd will be young. Only because I’ve heard that it’s a sea of cell phones and people talk all through the performance. I hope for your sake I’m wrong. Hell…I’m going to see Joe Bonamassa in August. We’ll see how it goes.
Better late than never! Welcome to the GVF admiration club! They are amazing.
Best reaction video to this song and band out there! Thank you so much!
Great review. Welcome to the club. Greta feeds my soul.
This band is incredible. Great tune as well.
Sal, I would suggest listening to the song that introduced them to the music world; Highway Tune from 2017. At the opening scream, your jaw is going to hit your desk: You will SWEAR you are hearing Robert Plant in his youth.
They’ve come a long way since then and their music is now more complex and varied, but there’s nothing quite like the shock of hearing Josh sing that opening note on their first hit
Thats what I said and they were just kids getting started then I believe 1 of them is also a cousin to the brothers
@@robertkern9911 I thought two were twins, one was another brother and the drummer is a friend.
@@helenespaulding7562 we may both be wrong heres wiki Greta Van Fleet is an American rock band from Frankenmuth, Michigan, formed in 2012. It consists of Kiszka brothers: twins Josh and Jake, and Sam; and Danny Wagner. So 2 sets of brothers
@@robertkern9911 Sam, keys and bass is the younger brother of twins Jake, guitarist and Josh, vocals. Danny the drummer is a child hood friend
@@sandifulmor8327 that’s what I’d heard too. Obviously the twins are fraternal, since they are most definitely NOT identical. The guitarist is very good looking. Josh is not, imo. Plus Josh is short in stature whereas his twin is not.
Check them out in concert if you ever have the chance - absolutely life changing 😌
Loved, loved, loved.
Lol the look on your face at the first belted out lyrics is what i imagine so many of us looked like hearing this the first time 🗣️🎶🎙️im so hooked on this song
I wish I recorded myself watching Heat Above for the first time because I had chills all over my body and immediately ran to show my dad 🥲
These guys are from Frakenmuth, MI. About 25 minutes from my where i live. Dude sounds like a very young Robert Plant. Crazy vocals!
Anything from The CandleLight sessions. Personally, I love Broken Bells performance (all of them) the entire band shines as always!
Just found them myself a month ago, they are brilliant no doubts , musically they are genius, vocally amazing although its not going to be to everyone's taste but im in agreement when done right sounds amazing the voice on this guy is awesome the pitch the tone the control the range the flow he does it so easy but it sound easy , but not only that the way they put it all together they are very very talented bunch of guy's they're unique or different regardless of the led zeppelin influences they are their own band , its fresh and very creative. To be fair all singers and bands are inspired by ones that have gone before its just natural , so to b fair to these guys it's not fair to say they copy led zeppelin as many say they have a sound if 70 's but they are original all bands have elements of things that inspire them thats natural but these guys are greta van fleet .nuff said
Please please keep reviewing greta. Start maybe with 'written in gold' (only on youtube and no visuals) - they were only about 17 and younger when they made it at rust belt studios. They were still school kids.
Thanks for a great review - and welcome to the gretaverse.
Sam and Danny missed their senior prom to go on tour with the Struts! How many kids can say that!!
Best new band in the last decade.
Please! Please! Please! Friend, do your self the biggest favor, ever and listen to them live. Not in a video that you can see anywhere. Find some of their live content you will be 100% blown away! It doesn’t matter which album you choose. Any of them are going to impress you just based on how big your eyes got in the beginning. I could recommend so many… So I won’t because everybody has a different sound that we’re looking for. You will not find one song that you dislike. I promise you! Have fun getting to know Greta Van Fleet! 🎶
I will mention the concert in Sacramento California in March was amazing and they do perform a few titles from their new album that will be released in July named Starcatcher. But for some thing fun, I’m gonna say check out a festival live and Red Rocks live…Amazing.
“These guys get into me as much as I get into them, it seems. It’s like a symbiotic, organic, dynamic relationship, the way I’ve evolved in my understanding of these guys and their music.”
I heard someone say this while listening to GVF and I found it to be an incredibly well put explanation of how this band and their music weaves itself deep into you and the emotional/spiritual impact it has on the soul. What beautiful music!!
They bring generations together which is important when many try to divide.
Best band out there right now. Absolutely amazing
Well this is different…
and amazing !
🤍✨
They are amazing live! Please check out other songs on their album and they have a new one coming out!
I LOVE watching people react to this song for the first time.
Exactly how I felt when I found this band!
They are just about to start their new tour headlining at major arenas like Madison Square Garden! They are a must see live band. They will blow you away! Great reaction you have a new subscriber!
I got emotional seeing your reaction. I❤GVF
Please please please do more GVF reactions. IMO, the entire Battle At Garden’s Gate album is perfection!! Would love to see you react to it!
"I have been waiting for this band for a few decades now" same her. Love them. Thanks 4 reaction, good job man !
I’m so happy you found them ♥️ please do moreeeeee
I am so happy to see someone finally reacting to GvF. They are incredible! Great reaction
I love seeing the reaction from someone hearing GVF for the first time. It's similar to mine: Geddy Lee/Jon Anderson YES vibes. This is a new sound that captures attention from the first note. Bravo! Encore!
Saw them live last October, very good and also very loud.
It's great to see a reaction video for this amazing band. Thank you :)
Your reaction to Josh's voice was spot on my friend!!!!
They are AMAZINNGGG LIVEEE when I discovered them i HAD to see them live 👏👏👏
They are the greatest I can’t get enough of this song! When I saw you never heard them had to watch your reaction which is spot on with everyone hearing them! What tops them off ultimately they are genuinely humble and real! Been great learning about them as well
Age of Man live is my favorite live song. But ANY GVF song is worth a listen. They are magic.
People used to say they were like an imitation of Led Zeppelin. What's the problem with that?
Though, nowadays I think they've found their "lode", you know what I mean?
It's delightful to listen to this band, for this last album is something remarkable with good and memorable songs - its closure is a hymn with "The Weigh of Dreams".
Now we have a new album debuting - I think in July - and I can't wait to see what comes next, 'coz we had a hint with "Meeting The Master", "Sacred the Thread" and "Farewell For Now" and they are absolutely wonderful.
Well, sorry for my English. I'm from Brazil and looking forward to seeing GVF do a concert here! I'll probably get hoarse for singing all their songs!
I had the same reaction! LOVE this group and especially this song.
How could I never heard them before??? Exactly what I thought when I listened to them for the first time. it's coz crappy music TVs don't promote good music anymore for a couple of decades now...
Broken Bells Candlelight sessions. PLEASE!!!!!!!!!! Also Meeting the Master is new and just came out. Music video is weirdly beautiful
Michigan rock all the way!!!
these guys are real good, there killing it
Literally anything else by them, they have not made a bad song (to answer your question of what you should listen to next)
Do MORE GVF!! I live in Chicago and have been to Frankenmuth several times...great little German town! You can see them in concert!!
MEETING THE MASTER! SO GOOD! Listen to it asap! I lo e Heat Above also.
Welcome to the Peaceful Army! This was fun to watch. I love seeing people react to GVF!
Highway tune is an absolute banger!!
Keyboards is younger brother. I love this band! They are amazing! This is a song you belt out in your car, trying, trying, trying, but never achieving those notes or that level of perfection. But sing on.....I know you can't help yourself.....just roll up your windows at the stoplights. 🙂
Makes me cry 7 months after I first heard it. And i'm an 70 y.o. Man.
I love this band. Joshes vocals are insane! Can I suggest you listen to two new releases just out. Meeting the master and Sacred the thread. They are both from their new album (Starcatcher) out in July. both are amazing. Thanks
Yepp! My guys. Josh, sing a lullaby for me. They are and will conquer the world for forever. Peace out!
That vocal drop down?(I don't know musical terms) at "Heat Above" is what first got me. So glad to see your reaction to that.
