Kim Dracula not being original is probably one of the craziest things I've heard lol
I would say totally the opposite as you guys: Kim Dracula has his own unique style because literally NO ONE sounds like him. I've been trying to find music similar to his but again, no one can make music with so much genres in it. This guy is a genius for me.
I can hear all his musical influences but only he can make such a good mix with every one of them.
i agree too...kim's vocals are unlike any i've heard...even his scatting is unique...i heARD his former band called jesterpose a song called covid 19 and yes its a little mr bungle mixed it with kim's uniqueness... i like him...he has many other songs and he has a good set of pipes
There is an older obscure band called Crotchduster that does different genres. But, nowhere near the quality of Kim Dracula. It may be what you're looking for.
Nobody sounds so bad like him. Listen to him live he is total garbage. He is a RUclips personality good video and voice editor.
Agree and Kim does NOT sound like any of those artist that they mentioned. KIM IS DIFFERENT AND THEIR MUSIC IS HELLA UNIQUE
There's actually a message behind the song it's pretty much about the media and police making criminal famous. Hints the beginning of the video where he shot the kid and the old lady clapping and laughing
I like that take when I first saw the beginning it just resonated in my head like “yeah that’s pretty much how gun advocates act when things like this happen” like ho Alex Jones said sandy hook was a hoax, it feels like it’s a show to them and their guns are more important than life.
I knew it’s the first thing I thought off
You guys are focusing too much on the sound itself, and not giving the message enough credit. It is a song about a broken society and it’s casual ability to publicize and almost glorify mass shootings. It talks about how always, we allow the shooter sympathy and try to push that they are mentally i’ll and need more love as if that is a appropriate response to someone who just murdered dozens of innocent people.
The video is meant to play into this as well, as it’s so violent but you can’t look away because you’ve become desensitized to these things. It goes further to bring attention to how the police have become militarized and the officers sometimes are looking for reasons to use violence. The song was made and ready, then the elementary school shooting in texas happened, so some stuff was removed from the imagery. The sound is fluid, and blends countless genres flawlessly, which plays well into the gender fluidity portrayed by the vocalist.
Since you guys were so fixed on the sound, it’s worth bringing up that Kim Dracula makes all their music themselves, there is no band. It is the main singer who makes all the beats, plays all the instruments, mixes and masters everything. This is someone SUPER talented, and their ability to convey this message and hit it right on the head, accompanied by cinema quality videography and imagery is what makes this song so important, and endlessly impressive.
I just discovered this artist yesterday, and I have been obsessed with this video since. Everyone is entitled to their opinion, but this is a real rare piece of music to find especially now when everything is so similar sounding.
Thank you!
This is exactly how I feel too! I cannot stop listening!!!
precisely, and very well put. I am so glad they're getting more recognition finally, and seeing lots of channels react to them has been interesting, even if some reactions seem to miss the mark (usually either comparing to other artists, or focusing on their gender etc).
Greetings:
I have been seeing these type of responses on similar "react" videos, and the Virgo in me felt the need to express my thoughts. I would like to start off by saying I love the song and I truly think Kim Dracula will go far if he continues his art. Further, you feel the need to explain your interpretation of the video as if that is the ONLY reason the guy in the react video (Kyle; guy on the right side of the video) mentioned he wasn't feeling it. Sometimes, there is just a factual conclusion of not liking it, even if they knew every detail of the intention and what the video was supposed to be "playing" into. He even mentions several times that he believe Kim Dracula is talented.
Artists such as Marilyn Manson, Mr. Bungle, Korn and MANY more have applied this type of approach before; that was mainly why he (Kyle in the react video) was rubbed the wrong way, so to speak. Again, it doesn't take away from the talent, production and message; it just has been done before. I'm sure you have heard of the Columbine tragedy and the documentary: "Bowling for Columbine". Marilyn Manson discusses a similar topic regarding glorifying mass shootings. This by no means concludes that no one else is allowed to create art further bringing attention to the topic in a creative and ironic way; just don't "defend" artists you like the second someone doesn't like one of their songs with opinions that make you sound like you're claiming "they" (artists that you like and more specifically Kim Dracula in this example) were the first ones to ever come up with such a brilliant idea. I'm open to further discussion. This isn't meant to be an insult or disagreement; more of an observation. Take care.
100%
Record label: allrite kim what genre are we shooting for on the new track?
Kim: yes absolutely
The fact that they took a bunch of different sounds from several different artists and put it together MAKES it unique and different
Yeah, that over weight guy doesn't know what he's talking about, he's stuck in the past and anything new he thinks it's trash
@@nightbeast1536Yeah same way my dad thinks about video games.
My take is for the fat guy take your feelings out of it. Does it sound good? Then it’s good. It took me a few listens to let it sink in all the way but I’m addicted I’ve been listening to the new album nonstop. Also korn endorsed these guys and even featured in the song 70 thorns and this will really trigger mr fat man but Kim out performed korn in the song by far.
Also their first tour this year they get avenged sevenfold touring with them.
It’s the first band I’m buying the whole album not just 1-2 songs.
Honestly he is stuck in the past and won't open up to new music, which is sad.@@nightbeast1536
This grind my gears. Young artists. It's so hard for young musicians these days to really find what other people think is a new sound without being compared to everybody else before them. Those of us that been though the era when this "new" sounds came around. With amazing new techniques and sounds. But the younger generation right now can't even explore anything without being commented to the older generation. "Oh but this person did this or this person did that before you even were born. You're trying to hard, do something new."
It's disturbing to me and makes me feel really bad for the young who just want to explore themselves and their music without getting the boot.
I agree. I will say I’m older (33) and I looveeee love Kim Dracula and think this is super unique and amazing and I can honestly say I have never heard anything quite like it. Also I was part of the hardcore, metal, & punk scene in my youth, I know of a lot of underground music and I’m still blown away by Kim. It’s definitely fabulous and he deserves recognition. ❤
@@LiztheScorpio89 I'm 30 and have been all over the place when it comes to music. My playlists have always been borderline. I like Kim dracula so far and it's going to be fun seeing where his music takes him.
If you read rock-'n'-roll history we can see that nothing is really "new." Music is fluid, and it shouldn't be anything else.
🤘
I love Kim and part of it is not knowing what they're going to do. They're music is fantastic, I'm a 48 year old metalhead and it's such a breath of fresh air to hear things that aren't genre bound and just kick me in the face.
Completely agree about Kim Drac but in all honesty 90% of today's rap music really is uninspired and lyrically remedial. Hate to sound like a old person but it's truth.
Also Seems to me like the one guy didn't like the video, so just trash talked the artist anyway they could not OK my guy, was it to real for you guns aren't toys as you see in the video
Man, y'all are around my age (I'm 45), and we have similar years from when we grew up with music, but this reaction gave off so much "old man yelling at clouds"/"kids these days" vibes. Like, you could physically see the guy on the right shut down within the first 30 seconds. Didn't bother to try to connect with the words or the video, just "noped" out.
Look, it's very easy for older musicians, like us (been playing live music for 30 years), to become jaded in what we consider "good music" when we hear new music. I personally find Kim Dracula as refreshing as when I first heard Mr Bungle in 92, and when I first heard Katatonia in 2012. Just loving music for the experience it provides.
I'm 53 and thought the exact same thing! "Back in my day, we had good music." (in old man voice) 😂😅
Yeah and sad part is he was probably that kid who hated the old heads of his time being like “you kids don’t know what real music is” and proceed to play the same Black Sabbath/Judas Priest songs over and over.
Seeing the video is one thing, the lyrics put it all together. Its the sad reality of our world right now . Gave mw goosebumps
I own every Korn album and they NEVER crossed my mind when I heard this. I still don’t hear it… I’ve never been this confused
Nah dude just didn’t like the video and tried to connect dots that were not there.
i didn't hear korn at all either...another channel mentioned it and i do not hear it...unless they are trying to say nu metal began with korn... heh slight hip hop/funk/metal mix
The fun part is Kim Dracula's new song (Seventy Thorns) has Jonathan Davis in it.
This young man’s talent is next level!!! 😇
Just discovered KD this week and I'm 50 years old and I've been missing something good from this generation. I love his videos. Even a few of his non videos.
You guys really needs to check lyrics... you will understand a lot! of this masterpeace... i mean it.
The video is iconic and I've watched about 20 other reaction videos and every single one of them says they were blown away and are now obsessed with this truly original artist. If you don't like one certain style of vocals just wait a few seconds and you get a new style. Nobody does this. I think he was turned off right away knowing this is a commentary on gun violence and it offends him as a "responsible" gun owner
You may actually be right. I was truly offended that he didn’t like it….. makes me sad bc I haven’t seen one reaction yet that wasn’t PLEASANTLY surprised and into Kim dracula. It’s definitely art and deserves recognition. With a good message to boost.
Ding ding ding! That's what I thought and it rubbed me the wrong way.
I thought this was the most original song in many years. Super talented, great subject matter.
they were liking the video, you can see from they'r faces, but the moment the military part came up the expresion on they'r faces shifted and now the music video is "not original" they don't revew the lirycs and the message is trown away, is so funny how americans react when guns and military are a subject of critisism
I'm half-American and I absolutely loved the criticism. It's mainly the kind of "patriots" who think that America is perfect that don't like the criticism because it challenges their views. This video speaks so much to a lot of Americans who have had to watch and experience the violence that happens every day.
@@littleflowers7678I’m fully American from the Midwest and it’s honestly just the truth at this point. We don’t care and don’t listen. There’s a reason most of us younger people don’t vote. It’s between a total douche or a shit sandwich.
YESSSSS!🖤
Kim is the Best 🖤🤟🏻
I want to hear from Beard No.1 as he was smiling and visibly loving it. 😃
I did like it. I thought it was experimental. It was off kilter and I appreciate an artist trying something new. I really enjoyed the video and the fact that it pushed the envelope. I wasn’t aware before (because I admittedly didn’t do my research) that the video was a commentary on US Gun violence and the way serial killer and mass murders are commercialized.
I can tell this guys didn’t really get the point of the video and about Kim was going for
He loves guns so it made him upset
do something orginal? you just saw it!!!
FACTS.
His sound is pretty similar to others, but it's still his own sound. He took those other sounds combined them, and made them his own.
EXACTLY! I loved it! ❤
The guy is thinking out off the box, kudos for him 🤟
It's so ironic hearing old big boy KyLe shit on him for not being "original" but he's on of those "IVe KnOwN kOrN bEfOrE aNyOne" and 100% he wouldn't know originality if it smacked him. Would love to hear how he'd make it original. Or make anything besides the sounds out his mouth tbh 💀💀🤣
He likes Korn and korn did the exact same thing mix a few different genre's and boom korn.. His take is straight up gatekeeper BS
The protect and to serve comment PRICELESS
Sorry you lost me when you immediately didn’t seem to like it. Kim dracula is definitely his own sound and you can’t tell me this isn’t DIFFERENT af. And the song and video has a HUGE amazing message and it went over your head 🤷🏻♀️
and i'm rolling my eyes like "do something original wtf" and he shows up in another reaction video like come on lol
What I learned from this reaction: If you like the song, its an homage. If you don't like the song, its derivative. Lolk.
I love this song and video! I love the sounds and the message is awesome
Watching you two react when the first horns intro came in. 😂. That was when I immediately thought of Bungle too. This felt like a Batman video on top of a Slipknot/Bungle collaboration.
Manson and Bungle are over. It's old news. Kim Dracula is the new generation shock-rocker. It's Manson for gen z.
Y'all really just went hardcore at "the video the video the video" and "it's kinda sounds like" without reading the lyrics and realizing 1+1=2 here. The police system is broke, cops look for reasons to shoot people and commit atrocities, we make mass murders famous on a national scale bare minimum, and your only focus was the video was a tad bit uncomfy and some of the sounds were familiar.
Maybe it's an age gap thing or a desensitization thing, but this wasn't an uncomfy video for me. It's a stern and harsh commentary on an ugly reality, like shoving a dog's nose in its own shit it's not meant to be a ~gentle push~ but a wits end shove in the right direction. As a 21-year-old who was forced to watch people jump on 9/11 every year (at school), the JFK assassination uncensored (at school), and then multiple school shooting videos on the news or live streamed online in the wild west eras of the internet, this ain't shit.
But y'all being uncomfortable is a good thing, it means you're not so desensitized to watching people get shot through a screen still makes you feel something.
Dude on the right is apparently not aware of the concept of all art being derivative and being inspired by those who came before you. I mean...that rant about Jonathan Davis' sound being copied by other bands...uh, yeah? That's how the evolution of sound works. I don't understand that perspective of seeming to want everyone who does a little something new first to "own" that thing and no one else can do it ever.
Yeah I find that’s more of a sign of ignorance, and I don’t say that in a derogatory sense. I’ve come to find that people who have never taken any art history fail to understand that.
Fun fact he has Korn in the new video🤣
Yeah I feel the Manson vibe , but hear me out . There’s a lot of things going on in this song / vid that’s totally different. It kept my attention that’s all I can say. But never ever compare to twist haha
Props for the Mr. Bungle reference
How can you now like how random this song is?? Like is literally as crazy as your intro!
He SCARED you... HAHAHAHAHA!!!!
I met Kim in Seattle and I asked him what his biggest influence in music is and he did not hesitate and said Mike Patton. . so there's that
I think they are just great band and will show that very soon!
I appreciate hearing an honest opinion! I love this song, but its great to hear other perspectives and not people just hyping it up because its the newest hot release
the point is to be all over the place. the message coincides with the music and visuals. this is about people using violence to gain notoriety and criticizing it. talk abt original lmao, bro had elevator music and Mongolian throat singing with breakdowns. It’s unfair to boil him down to a Marylyn Manson copycat. Everyone pulls influence from what they like and make it their own. This is also what happened in the react format lol, “be original”
I might be biased but one of the best videos I have seen ever is Cruel by Jackson Wang. Two other notable videos to watch are 100 Ways & Blow.
A little bit about him he was in a K-Pop group called Got7 who separated from their company but still make music together on occasion but they all now have their own solo careers.
Jackson is a Chinese singer who sings mostly in English. He grew up in an international school, and speaks five languages . He was an Olympic fencer and decided to go into music.
Hey, Marsha!!!!! Thank you for your comment. We really are digging Jackson Wang! We’ll have to check out Cruel.
I mean if anyone isn't convinced of the Mr Bungle comparison check out Pink Cigarette and then compare it to KD's Rose and you will clearly see the inspiration. Doesn't make KD bad but he is artist that is wearing his inspirations on his sleeve.
Kim Dracula is my favorite artist :) PLEASE REACTION K.D DROWN
guy in black was such a buzzkill w all the comparison 🙄 props to the other guy for enjoying it regardless.
Its not meant to be original. Of course its going to sound like different pieces of genre put together, but it made something unique. And the video, oh man, whoever produced and directed the video did an awesome job, as it collaborated very well with the song.
Awesome❤️🇳🇵
The way Sam wellings does his vocals is a distinct way chris fronz from Attila does his and Sam does his it’s rap in post metal vocals and the message behind it is that most of these mass shootings is for media attention and clout
first off they are not a him or her. Also you need to listen to the words to this song. Its about how people make killers famous. Also suicide is glamourized in some situations as well.
The message of the song is about how it seems like everyone wants to be famous through mass shootings, mayhem and murder. You should really see the video Drown. Give them another chance!
as a Mr. Bungle fan, I immediately noticed. Maybe Kim Dracula will do a cover of "Merry Go Bye Bye"
How can you not like that? NFI!
I heard like axle rose, disturbed, korn, godsmack and marilyn manson in one kim dracula
Well this song in particular uses multi genre sounds. But I mean who else has done that. Sure there have been bands that take the sound of just one. But to take multiple genres and to infuse them into one song?? Id recommend you listen to Drown now. Maybe even Killdozer or Say Please.
You should check out 70 Thorns by Kim Dracula Feat Jonathan Davis
The first time I listened to Twist and showed it to my friends they looked at me like I was insane"
👀👀👀
I can't wait til he Hearn Jonathan on Kim's track
The more ive listened to Kim the more im starting to think Kim is just trolling the industry and putting the mainstream on blast.
i liked this. I'm not sure of the original intention of the author of the song, but for me, this reflects the confusion and horror that happens in the USA with all the shootings from an outsider's perspective.
That’s exactly what he’s getting at.
well i know whos channel im never coming back to again only because of ---->
but he literally sounds so different than any other artists.
though, do respect your opinion.
Please Kim is Extremely more talented than manson even in his prime
try kill dozer by kim dracula or paparazzi
Didn't sound anything like corn and he's automatically relating that scene to the joker without listening to the lyrics... Just a hater
Really need to look up the lyrics to understand the song and it might give some light on what the song means and what the message is
Have they done watch the world burn by falling in reverse? Stuff is amazing
I'm surprised that the guy on the right finds the content offensive and yet wearing a Pennywise T-shirt ha.
"Let's watch the video."
Busy playing around on his phone. 🙄
during THE BEST PART
I'm sure this is a criticism of society, where what matters is being famous at all costs. In terms of music, it's chaotic and has a lot of influences from the 90s, but that's art. There is nothing new under the sun and finding what is yours is the experience and a mesh of everything that influences you. I think Kim has a unique way of creating music and interacting with many genres. But it's not really for everyone. I'm still trying to absorb the album... you should try listening to the new single "superhero". I think it's fantastic
It’s so boring to hear y’all shit on a new artist like “Oh, I knew Korn before it was cool.” I think Kim Dracula is dynamic and awesome. You’re dating yourselves. Lame.
The video is talking about issues in the us with shootings that’s what the vid is showing
So at first react it is hard to take in the music and the video ( you have to focus on one and miss the other)....the song is really going after media and legal system making bad people famous ( definitely have to look up lyrics)....and I can definitely see the 90s feel of NIN, Korn, Def tones ect....but as some one that's nerodivergent I enjoy the heck outta it because you get get that type of music anymore. Let alone in one song
You missed the whole point of the video
PLEASE REACT TO THIS TWO SONGS BY JEFF SATUR:
- WHY DON'T YOU STAY
- HIDE
If you listen to the words and understand the message then you may not think it’s offensive.
The insanity reminds me of the Joker ALOT)
I think it's more a reflection of gun owner bias of a 80s/90s kid I'm guessing. Look up the lyrics. That's where this song sets things straight. By those standards Marylin Mansion isn't original either as he copied David bowie, The Cure and Alice Cooper. Jay Hawkins passed it to Alice, then Alice passed shock rock to the next generation (Marylin). Now I believe it's passed to the next generation... Kim. Though it is refreshing to have a reaction of this video from a different cultural perspective. Just sad to see someone write off a creative person this way. Peace ✌️
The guy on the right is so fucking old!!!!
pero que es la musica... no es precisamente la union de muchas cosas que en la antiguedad solo hacian partede algo? a mi me parece exelente
😂😂😂
Bums me out that you guys had such a bad take on this. Not liking something is totally understandable, but you were in hater mode for reasons that made no sense.
Literally!
Try Jesterpose they are same band
Did the lead singer of Avatar have a boy?
Someone doesnt like screams😂
So no other bands can be influenced by Mr. Bungle? That's sad.
lol this is original, all we see is pop crap today copy paste, this song had so many diferent styles, genres, had clear message, etc. if this isnt original i dont know what is. even comparing to marilyn manson this was very diferent
The music video is on the killer's perspective but the lyrics is about the opposite. like how people idolised the mass murder for no reason. "Celebrity status, just for murdering people".
Really look at the lyrics there's nothing wrong with not liking something but to so blindly gloss over its message is disappointing to see. Also originality is hard so many artists take inspiration from other artists there's no need to be so offended over it
F
I can be positive this kid doesn't know Mr Bungle. If you start finding similitudes to other artists.. after Metallica Slayer and Maiden.. all l hear is variations of these .. with few exceptions.. but can't blame a new artist for his influences
So he complained the whole vid?
weird purist take that doesn't allow the newer generation of artist try anything without comparing them to stuff that came before
You guys completely missed the point of this song one of the worst reviews i have ever seen
AWFUL React! Im sorry but yall need to read the lyrics before yall criticize the song. "Be original"? Like come on, yall need to step up. Also I know Trap Metal is def not yalls kind of thing but the reason he's so good is because of the many styles and sounds he combines to make this song. The dude on the right who thinks himself a rock enthusiast needs to expand his horizons and see what other music is out there. Slipknot is a fantastic band but to compare everything to them is ridiculous. I know yall have been around the block a while but damn go check out Ghostmane, SuicideBoyz, and especially KillDyll. Kim Dracula is the next top artist for Trap Metal.
read the lyrics. sound aside
React to BLACKPINK 'Pink Venom' which was released today 🔥🔥🔥🔥Blackpink is back after 2 years
They can definitely sing and scream, but I agree that the sound wasn’t original. As for the video, I think, as Americans, we have a different relationship with guns and with mass shootings. So, whenever I see artists from other countries with those themes in their videos, it doesn’t sit right with me but I know enough to not be offended. Cultural differences.
"we have a different relationship with guns and with mass shootings" translating: we love guns more than we love people. Yeah, the rest of the world clearly sees that
@@keykosvids It certainly feels that way. You’ll get no argument from me on that.
Dude Kim Dracula Tasmanian so essentially Australian. They had one major mass shooting and got their shit in order while we just flooded the streets with more guns. They’re more like us than you think
Ok I watched the video, but Omg the guy on the right is really annoying. There is so much relevant meaning to todays society within the visuals and the lyrics
well yeah but as he said "he LOVES guns", so as soon as it might've clicked for him that the song critisizes all that he loves he just noped out and pulled the old man "I knew Korn before it was cool" and "it's not even original". Like... huh??? Annoying af
Please React to this music video : Wonderland Indonesia 2 : The Sacred Nusantara (Official Video)
“The Sacred Nusantara” is a special masterpiece initiated by Alffy Rev, together with Dewatlantis Studio & REV Production, taking the inspiration from a piece of history of Nusantara (the Indonesian archipelago) to depict its diversity and wonders. This is our dedication, as children of our nation, in the hope of reviving the love for our Motherland, Indonesia, on the 77th anniversary of Indonesia's independence.
I'd guess KD would probably be delighted by the dissention in the ranks this track caused here... and I'd guess he'd probably have an air of dismissive humor with everything #2 completely missed and got incorrect. Good try guys... better luck next time
