Now, I listen to bands like Aborted, Suffocation, Ingested, Gravemind, Widowmaker, Traitors.. It's getting heavier.. I still love these old pop singer and groups, tho..

      That whole album [Atlas] is a beautiful masterpiece. It's parkway drive at its heart but it has this unique ambient type of sound that you only hear on that album. I love how parkways albums all have their own unique feel to them. They are always progressing their sound. While I prefer their earlier stuff, I absolutely love all their music and love how they try to keep it fresh and not repeat the same formula over ajd over. You have to respect parkway drive even if you don't like the new music just cuz they're true to themselves and their fans and how passionate they are and always change their sound a little on each album hut always stay heavy in a way.

      Adam Rose I do like Silence Speaks, but I love the songs you said for completely different reasons. I’d say Our Courage, Our Cancer though - been one of my favourites since This Is The Six dropped.

    I love watching your reaction videos because you come from a different musical background but you have such an open mind to many different styles of music and dont just listen to a song and say if it's good or bad you listen to the lyrics and digest the story they are trying to tell with each song and its refreshing to see someone who's not trying to jam their thoughts and opinions down other peoples throats. Dope video. Dope ass dude.🤘🤘

    First off, I want to say I love how close you pay attention to the minor details of not only the lyrics but also the meanings behind the music videos. Your analysis is freaking spot on. And I also love how deep your getting into the metal scene. Much love and mad respect dude. With that being said, I'm putting together a list of bands you should check out in the Post hardcore/Metalcore genre's. I'm not asking you to make a video on all these bands. But I honestly do believe you're really starting to enjoy this genre. This list is in no particular order. Anybody feel free to add band I may have forgotten.
    Chasing Safety, Get Scared, Issues, Parkway Drive, Silverstein, August Burns Red, Ice Nine Kills, Wage War, Oceans Ate Alaska, Gidion, Alesana, Architects, Chunk! No Captain Chunk, Hawthorne Heights, Woe is Me, Texas in July, Any Given Day, The Browning, Altessa, Like Moths To Flame, Palisades, Jamie's Elsewhere, Atilla, The Amity Affliction, Chuggaboom, Alazka, Grasslands, After the Burial, Beartooth, Capture the Crown, A Feast for a King, Outline in Color, Our Last Night, and Now or Never.
    This is nowhere near all the bands that could or should be listed. Although these are all band that come to mind at the moment. Ant to all my metal friends and family. I'm always looking for more bands to listen to. Educate me. Love you all. :)

    so while this is a good parkway drive song, i think you would like some of their newer stuff better like Destroyer, bottom feeder, vice grip, wishing wells, prey......also you should check out some While she sleeps...also a very good band

    • @TheCarter117Gaming
      @TheCarter117Gaming 6 лет назад +3

    • @marcofiorenza3323

  • @josephkhajo9773
    @josephkhajo9773 6 лет назад +5

    So just a little thing about the metalcore stuff and metal stuff in general. This part of the song 6:34 is called the breakdown its the heaviest part of the whole song and its ment to get crowds crazy, usually drummers experiment with different kick patterns and guitarists do open palm muted chunks to make it heavier. it can be likened to a drop in dubstep or like a hard trap beat that really gets you going.

  • @ekojmart
    @ekojmart 6 лет назад +8

    Man it's been really cool watching your progression of metal music. I first found your videos when you reacted to your "first" slipknot song. I think I was late on that one but I've still watched some of them in order. I really enjoy how opened minded you are to a genre of music a lot of people typically blindly hate on because they don't understand it. I first watched said Slipknot, and your reaction to Pieces by Jinjer, both of which I was ready for you to hate on. Which has not at all been the case. Kudos to you my friend!

    • @ekojmart

    I am definitely going to be sharing this video! And keep on doing your thing!! I love you channel so far.

      Hunter_Scars I’m sorry, but they were nowhere NEAR as technically proficient on either of those albums as they are now. Not to say either of those albums are bad, but they’re pretty by the numbers. Deep Blue was the first time they really showed that they had a lot more potential than a lot of other metalcore bands. Their lyricism and songwriting has matured a lot especially since Killing With a Smile. I can’t deny those albums have some insane breakdowns though.

    Should look into their newer stuff, they do a lot more changes in the vocals, Vice Grip and Bottom Feeder are excellent. Also, Strayan bands kick a ton of ass, another group that I'll always recommend to anyone and everyone is Twelve Foot Ninja. One Hand Killing is a bit of a tough song to get into, but Shuriken, Invincible, and Mother Sky are fantastic entries into their uniqueness.
