Song's about chasing that Crystal Meth high, and I'm pretty sure the girl he's singing about was dead from an overdose at the 'laying on your belly face down on the mattress' part
Legit this whole album is a banger! Third Eye Blind made an alternative rock masterpiece with this album. You’ve got to check out some more! - Jumper - Losing A Whole Year - How’s It Going To Be - Narcolepsy - The Background - Graduate
Third eye blind is another one of those bands that is the catchiest shit you ever heard and then you read the lyrics and darkness consumes your soul. They have so many songs with this juxtaposition it's crazy.
Yeah, I cannot peg down wtf he's gonna like or not. I don't know many black folks who would ever get any kind of excited over Third Eye Blind lol. Good on Rob
Getting a story from this situation is a double edge sword. They are either what you hope for or turned out they were the opposite which is disappointing.
My personal favorite would be You're gonna go far kid, but show Rob the album Duo that is Dividing by Zero/Slim Pickens Does the Right Thing and Rides the Bomb to Hell and watch him freak out
This band’s 1997-2003 albums are all this quality and are just great. Their sound is so nostalgic even if you’ve never heard them. The music reminds me of summer breaks in the 2000s
I went to the most random Third Eye Blind concert 15 years ago. Trey Songz was the opener followed by Trapt and TEB was the headliner. Best part was the concert took place in the gym of a college on the basketball court. Felt like a fever dream until I looked it up on Google recently and saw the ad for the concert 🤣
An early review in this channel was Audioslave. Hoping we come back to some more Chris Cornell. Say Hello 2 Heaven, Outshined, Jesus Christ Pose, Superunkown, Burden in My Hand, Like Suicide, A Thousand Days Before, Cochise, Gasoline, Doesn't Remind Me, Seasons... So many to choose from!
This song was EEEEEEEEVERYWHERE back in the day. I don't think you could go a week in public without hearing this song somewhere when it was at its peak. Maybe not even a day, depending where you were.
It wasn't bad. Upbeat college rock. I sang it at karaoke night a couple times. Not as heavy as i'm normally into but still pretty fun at the time. Got a little burned out on it. You should check out a band called Blind Melon. People will recommend you listen to No Rain, and that's a good song but, Mouthful of Cavities is a great song. Makes me almost cry.
This is straight pop rock. Songs from the same era with the same energy: Spin Doctors - 2 Princes Sugar Ray - Every Morning New Radicals - You Get What You Give Every single one of these was an absolute mega single, on the radio every day!
Stumbled across this by accident, been watching a few of these videos. If you want something that goes hard Five Finger Death Punch's Wrong Side of Heaven - dedicated to US veterans and our crisis of self deletion and homelessness. Remember Everything - focused on mens mental health
Simpler times BroBro... simpler times. 😊 Your right about the "Tony Hawk Skater Rock Vibes". 🤔 This was on rotation a lot on the radios back in the day...
Would love to see Rob react to Five Finger Death Punch Music videos for Wrong Side of Heaven, or Gone Away. See if a metal band can make the man shed a tear.
Has Rob heard any Paramore yet??? Feel like he'd love Misery Business or Thats what you get. Lol The generation that made all these banger songs dealt with and saw a lot of shit through the 80s and 90s. Lol i feel like that has something to do with how good music use to be.
Roughly this is 'Alternative' , pop punk isn't far off the mark. Alternative was a huge spanning genre that included so many different sub genres as to make it meaningless.
Had a band that covered this song and we ALWAYS put it squarely in the best part of the evening: toward the end of the second set (of three sets). People at that point were really starting to get loose and ready to sing and it brought the house down every night.
You want to go down a 90's unique rock trip listen to more Sublime. Stories to a caribbean / Rock vibe. * Doin' Time * April 29, 1992 (Song based around L.A. Riots with a hint of RATM politics)
It's really just rock from the 90's and it was fun. Music now, and yes I am old-idc, is so super serious. It's soooooo serious. I just want some fun music.
yeah this is pop/punk for sure, just a different era of it. The genre has changed so much over time. Olivia Rodrigo makes some pop/punk songs but they sound pretty different to Third Eye Blind's stuff, which sounds different to the emo era of pop/punk when MCR/FOB/Paramore reigned supreme. The current "wave" of pop/punk is basically some combo of Olivia, Willow, and even MGK even if he's a dickhead lmao
The sound you vibe with every single time is pop rock/pop punk. You would love dammit by blink-182, up and go by the starting line, hit or miss by new found glory.
I live not far from Carolina Beach in North Carolina, and at least one of the members moved to this area. A few years ago, that member and the lead singer were at that beach surfing and ended up saving 4 kids from drowning when they got caught in a riptide. It sounds unreal, but 100% happened (you can look it up). Their music is kind of soft for my taste, but I will always like them on principle because of that.
@jacksmith-vs4ct they really are insanely dangerous. I've been near the ocean my entire life, and if I had kids there is absolutely no way in hell they would be allowed in without me right there with them and a lifeguard on duty. Personally, I hate the beach because of sensory issues, but worse than that is the anxiety I've always gotten seeing kids running around doing stuff that could easily get them unalived and their parents not paying the slightest bit of attention.
Could definitely see this as pop-punk. I think you checked out some Offspring a while ago, would be cool to see you look into more of the ‘punkier’ side of pop-punk. Hard to go wrong with Green Day, specifically brain stew, basket case, holiday, or american idiot
I would love to see you react to any of these songs: Zombie or anything else by the Cranberries, Mr Bright side by the Killers, Loser by Kina, Uninvited Alan's Morisette, Hate me by Blue October or I know by Dionne Farris.
90s alternative rock was crazy. After Nirvana the record labels had no idea what was going to be the next big hit so they just signed all sorts of crazy underground acts. You had all sorts of genres and crossovers... pop punk, funk, trip hop, acid house, noise rock, shoegaze, ska, prog metal, industrial... listening to my local alt rock station (101X) for an hour you could hear a lineup as diverse as Butthole Surfers, Nine Inch Nails, Beck, Alice in Chains, the Eels, Sneaker Pimps, Tool, Fiona Apple, and Third Eye Blind.
Your head stopped bobbing for a second after the "crystal meth" line. Is that when you realized the song had some darker lyrics than the upbeat vibe it gives off?
If you want just plain fun, I would suggest anything from Electric Callboy. They are metal, but its just FUUUUUUUNNNN!!! Try "Hypa Hypa" or "We Got the Moves!" and go down the rabbit hole!
I picked up this album for 50 cents a few weeks ago and gave it a listen. The whole album is pretty solid. Motorcyle Drive-by is great song that (as far as I know) was never a single.
If you're looking for good old fashioned rock music that isn't over the top explicit, but made in the modern day, you have GOT to check out The Warning. They are bringing rock music BACK! I would recommend checking out their performance of "EVOLVE" from the MTV VMA's in 2023. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.
So stoked that you dig this kind of sound. I love your reactions. But, sometimes I feel like the people suggesting your music are pushing you more to the metal stuff like Pantera and Slipknot. Don't get me wrong, they have some cool songs.... but I always (personally) preferred stuff closer to this. Yes, punk-pop, is what I would call it. I'm not on your Patreon... so, maybe my suggestions would fall to the wayside. But, I'd like to see some Weezer, Red Hot Chilli Peppers, Offspring, Nirvana, Sublime, 311, Violent Femmes, Pearl Jam, Green Day, Radiohead, Foo Fighters, Nine Inch Nails, Pixies, Blind Melon, Blink 182 I know you've done a couple of those bands.... but, they have more hits to go through. At any rate, if you keep making them, I'll keep watching, liking and commenting.
This genre is called 90s alternative. Pop-punk would be bands like Good Charlotte and Panic At The Disco. This was the first CD I ever had. I had plenty of cassettes, but this was my first CD. Unfortunately I didn't actually get a CD player for some time after. Also highly recommend a band called Live. Lightning Crash, Dolphin's Cry, All Over You
You aint really got to the classics. Mid to late 90s alternative white boy rock had some peaks. Right before nu metal and before everything went pop punk or whatever. Listen to Third Eye Blind songs, "Jumper", "Fade into the Background", and "God of Wine". You can pull some nice mature snow bunnys dropping them in the playlist 😂😂😂
If you like War Pigs from Black Sabbath i recommend the cover from REDZED. He likes to mix rock/metal with rap and horrorcore. Czech Republic Represent :)
This is completely off topic and unsolicited advice so sorry, but I work in optics and have heard you complain about reflections in your glasses when you're doing reactions - get an anti-reflective coating! It will help a lot with viewers being able to see your eyes, and probably make the glasses feel nicer to look out of.
Would love to see you review some Jimi Hendrix.... Preferably Purple Haze, but All Along the Watchtower would be great too. Loving your channel by the way. It's fun to rediscover these songs with someone comming at them for the first time.
@robtv have you done any Guns N’ Roses songs? Was taking a look but don’t see anything. Feels like an absolute no-brainer for your channel. You can pretty much take your pick of anything off the Appetite for Destruction album but Paradise City, Welcome to the Jungle or Sweet Child O Mine are typically the ones that people go to for the first time. Make sure you do studio versions tho!
Not pop punk, this is just one of the greatest 90s pop rock bands of all time, with an asshole diva singer to boot. They’re flawless. They do have some punk energy on a few tracks though. Check out Graduate or Anything next, followed by Never Let You Go.
alternative white people music is probably like 70% of why i turned out the way i am. i love seeing first reactions/opinions that earnestly engage with the material, this whole playlist makes me feel so vindicated for my 14 year old self lol. if you take suggestions, you should check out prayer of the refugee by rise against, or ocean avenue by yellowcard! also if you haven't heard any japanese rock, you should consider listening! jrock is heavily inspired by early punk & goth subculture & there are tons of great bands. the craziest & cleanest instrumentals i've ever heard have been from jrock artists, def worth looking into if you're liking american rock/metal!
Rob continuing his trip through the soundtrack of my college career 😁
Facts! ❤
Ikr
Soundtrack of my Life!!! lolol So Much Fun!!!!!
Next up, 311?
Yep! 😁
Song's about chasing that Crystal Meth high, and I'm pretty sure the girl he's singing about was dead from an overdose at the 'laying on your belly face down on the mattress' part
Eh, not so sure. He references falling asleep inside her, so I’m thinking she’s alive, she’s just high as fuck.
I’ll never forget the shock when I went from this clean radio version and then heard the real version about meth and a dead girlfriend, wow
nah doubt that last part the first part for sure though haha
Yeah the lyrics definitely don't support that theory @@jacksmith-vs4ct
Yep. Some Grunge music is super pop mixed with heroin experiences. As a kid from the Bay Area this shit is 💯 real
Legit this whole album is a banger! Third Eye Blind made an alternative rock masterpiece with this album. You’ve got to check out some more!
- Jumper
- Losing A Whole Year
- How’s It Going To Be
- Narcolepsy
- The Background
- Graduate
Third eye blind is another one of those bands that is the catchiest shit you ever heard and then you read the lyrics and darkness consumes your soul. They have so many songs with this juxtaposition it's crazy.
Rob continuing his streak of me having absolutely no feel at all for what he’s going to like 😂
Yeah, I cannot peg down wtf he's gonna like or not. I don't know many black folks who would ever get any kind of excited over Third Eye Blind lol. Good on Rob
BRO, the man is insane, I have no clue what he’s gonna do next, and I love it 😂
yeah this was a surprise for sure lol
My sister dated the Drummer of Third Eye Blind for a while and I got to go backstage and meet them at a concert in Memphis
Bro WHAT! That’s actually cool as hell lol
Getting porked like no tomorrow!!
There has to be more to the story. Nice? Dirty? What?
Getting a story from this situation is a double edge sword. They are either what you hope for or turned out they were the opposite which is disappointing.
He's a good drummer :)
This whole album is pretty fire
I like Graduate alot
for sure
"the background" so underrated
5 big ass songs too. Losing a Whole Year and Graduate shoulda been bigger than Jumper tho, Jumper such a novelty now and kinda cheese
I want you is fire too
Time for The Offspring soon. Though I'd be pretty surprised if you've never heard any of their music before.
Self Esteem for sure
Everybody's heard Pretty Fly for a White Guy.
My personal favorite would be You're gonna go far kid, but show Rob the album Duo that is Dividing by Zero/Slim Pickens Does the Right Thing and Rides the Bomb to Hell and watch him freak out
He already reacted to The Kids Aren't Alright
I bet he's never heard Worst Hangover Ever.
Bro 90s alternative is just straight bops
This band’s 1997-2003 albums are all this quality and are just great. Their sound is so nostalgic even if you’ve never heard them. The music reminds me of summer breaks in the 2000s
Third Eye Blind was my first concert back in the day. 17 yr old me blasting this tune in my Buick LeSabre 😂
Revisiting music from the 90s really makes me miss MTV when they played music videos.
back when they played the videos yes. we could judge for ourselves lol
This must be the radio version since part is cut out. I don't think they'd cut that part out today, lol. Love this song.
I abhor the radio edit - it cuts out the best part of this song :(
doot doot do, doot doot doot do
When he first paused I was like, "He hasn't even heard his first doot yet!" 🙂
Too catchy lol
Nardwuar-core
Songs about crystal meth are always a bop.
Yes sir
I went to the most random Third Eye Blind concert 15 years ago. Trey Songz was the opener followed by Trapt and TEB was the headliner. Best part was the concert took place in the gym of a college on the basketball court. Felt like a fever dream until I looked it up on Google recently and saw the ad for the concert 🤣
An early review in this channel was Audioslave. Hoping we come back to some more Chris Cornell. Say Hello 2 Heaven, Outshined, Jesus Christ Pose, Superunkown, Burden in My Hand, Like Suicide, A Thousand Days Before, Cochise, Gasoline, Doesn't Remind Me, Seasons... So many to choose from!
I loved this song during my childhood i realized as i got older what he was singing about 😅😂
Ikr, i didn't know it was about drugs until recently
Oh, this is the edited version of the song. You need to listen to the full cut because he has a banging break down verse.
yeah sadly the official version on their youtube is edited
i had to relisten to this real quick, because the break down is so good and we missed it here
You gotta do AC/DC “Thunderstruck”
One of my favorite songs about meth ever lol
how many songs about meth you know? :P
@jacksmith-vs4ct there's quite a few actually
@@bryanb767Some examples?
😂
This song was EEEEEEEEVERYWHERE back in the day. I don't think you could go a week in public without hearing this song somewhere when it was at its peak. Maybe not even a day, depending where you were.
Bro. This is the hardest I have laughed at a video you’ve done. Classic BOP. Brilliant Observation Professor.
Blues Traveler - The Hook
It'll change your life
Man, I couldn't click fast enough. Such a good song, albeit one that's darker than it seems
Rob correctly pointing out the only thing that aged poorly about this is that chin strap.
It wasn't bad. Upbeat college rock. I sang it at karaoke night a couple times. Not as heavy as i'm normally into but still pretty fun at the time. Got a little burned out on it.
You should check out a band called Blind Melon. People will recommend you listen to No Rain, and that's a good song but, Mouthful of Cavities is a great song. Makes me almost cry.
might be called rock now but was considered alternative more or less at the time
Tones of Home is another excellent one
Check out "INCUBUS" (Deep Inside) from the album S.C.I.E.N.C.E 🔥🔥🔥🔥
I would say that this is pre-pop punk. Like it's probably not technically quite pop punk, but this is what gave rise to what would become pop punk.
Day 2 of asking RobTV to react to Bad Omens - DEATH OF PEACE OF MIND
This is straight pop rock. Songs from the same era with the same energy:
Spin Doctors - 2 Princes
Sugar Ray - Every Morning
New Radicals - You Get What You Give
Every single one of these was an absolute mega single, on the radio every day!
If you like this you should see "One Week" by Barenaked Ladies. Similar style with amazing cadence. You will love it Rob
The whole second album was about him losing Charlize Theron so… but it’s still pretty great…
Bro you gotta do LYNYRD SKYNYRD-FREE BIRD if you havent heard it
Stumbled across this by accident, been watching a few of these videos. If you want something that goes hard
Five Finger Death Punch's
Wrong Side of Heaven - dedicated to US veterans and our crisis of self deletion and homelessness.
Remember Everything - focused on mens mental health
Simpler times BroBro... simpler times. 😊
Your right about the "Tony Hawk Skater Rock Vibes". 🤔
This was on rotation a lot on the radios back in the day...
Check out , I GOT ONE FOR YA , by
KID ROCK . it's a banger that most people don't know about
Man, I wish you'd react to The Distance by CAKE, one of my all time favorite alt rock songs.
Would love to see Rob react to Five Finger Death Punch Music videos for Wrong Side of Heaven, or Gone Away.
See if a metal band can make the man shed a tear.
Has Rob heard any Paramore yet??? Feel like he'd love Misery Business or Thats what you get. Lol
The generation that made all these banger songs dealt with and saw a lot of shit through the 80s and 90s. Lol i feel like that has something to do with how good music use to be.
Roughly this is 'Alternative' , pop punk isn't far off the mark. Alternative was a huge spanning genre that included so many different sub genres as to make it meaningless.
This whole album is a banger. But their best song is "Wounded" without a doubt. Definitely recommend giving that one a try!
Jame’s Addiction - The price I pay
Fishbone - Servitude
I was in high school when the heavily edited version of this was on the radio ALL THE DAMN TIME.
You should check out "Steal My Sunshine" by Len. It has a similar vibe.
Check out "Sugar" by System of a Down! Pretty, pretty please!
Try the love song ballad side of this great band with "How's It Going To Be".
Dude, check out Fat lip by Sum41. Love your vids.
If you like this another song you need is Two Princes by the Spin Doctors
IAGL his chinstrap in this video has been invisible to me all this time WTF 🥴
I'm just gonna say it I don't mind it lol I don't think it looks dope or anything but I think its alright and it works with the stuff he is wearing
please check out Radio/Video by System of a down!
Based on loving this, should probably listen to 2 princes
Had a band that covered this song and we ALWAYS put it squarely in the best part of the evening: toward the end of the second set (of three sets). People at that point were really starting to get loose and ready to sing and it brought the house down every night.
He’s actually talking about crystal meth.
Try listening to living color "Cult of Personality "
Check out the Toadies “possum kingdom”
Third eye blind has some of the best 90’s songs bar none! They influence ed a lot of the pop punk bands you heard in the early 00’s.
You want to go down a 90's unique rock trip listen to more Sublime. Stories to a caribbean / Rock vibe.
* Doin' Time
* April 29, 1992 (Song based around L.A. Riots with a hint of RATM politics)
Also, since you like guitar solos at the start listen to Pawn Shop
"How can you listen to this and not smile?" That captures the energy of 3EB - awesome to see you discovering it and digging it, man!
It's really just rock from the 90's and it was fun. Music now, and yes I am old-idc, is so super serious. It's soooooo serious. I just want some fun music.
Slow Motion by them is great, the Demo version tho
Oh this is the edited version! Gotta listen to the full song lol....I still know every word to the stuff they wouldn't play on the radio 😂
I was scrolling down to see if anyone would tell him this is the radio edit.
yeah this is pop/punk for sure, just a different era of it. The genre has changed so much over time. Olivia Rodrigo makes some pop/punk songs but they sound pretty different to Third Eye Blind's stuff, which sounds different to the emo era of pop/punk when MCR/FOB/Paramore reigned supreme. The current "wave" of pop/punk is basically some combo of Olivia, Willow, and even MGK even if he's a dickhead lmao
Do-Cold by Crossfade
Look at the lyrics.
The sound you vibe with every single time is pop rock/pop punk. You would love dammit by blink-182, up and go by the starting line, hit or miss by new found glory.
I don't know how he's never heard this. I avoid this song and I've probably heard it 10,000 times.
I live not far from Carolina Beach in North Carolina, and at least one of the members moved to this area. A few years ago, that member and the lead singer were at that beach surfing and ended up saving 4 kids from drowning when they got caught in a riptide. It sounds unreal, but 100% happened (you can look it up). Their music is kind of soft for my taste, but I will always like them on principle because of that.
thats crazy good on them but man people really should teach their kids about rip tides and how to deal with them
@jacksmith-vs4ct they really are insanely dangerous. I've been near the ocean my entire life, and if I had kids there is absolutely no way in hell they would be allowed in without me right there with them and a lifeguard on duty. Personally, I hate the beach because of sensory issues, but worse than that is the anxiety I've always gotten seeing kids running around doing stuff that could easily get them unalived and their parents not paying the slightest bit of attention.
React to sugar ray
Could definitely see this as pop-punk. I think you checked out some Offspring a while ago, would be cool to see you look into more of the ‘punkier’ side of pop-punk. Hard to go wrong with Green Day, specifically brain stew, basket case, holiday, or american idiot
Yo PLEASE check out some Brand New. My biggest suggestion is degausser
I would love to see you react to any of these songs: Zombie or anything else by the Cranberries, Mr Bright side by the Killers, Loser by Kina, Uninvited Alan's Morisette, Hate me by Blue October or I know by Dionne Farris.
Big Shiny Tunes 2 is probably the best compilation album ever, this was track 3.
90s alternative rock was crazy. After Nirvana the record labels had no idea what was going to be the next big hit so they just signed all sorts of crazy underground acts. You had all sorts of genres and crossovers... pop punk, funk, trip hop, acid house, noise rock, shoegaze, ska, prog metal, industrial... listening to my local alt rock station (101X) for an hour you could hear a lineup as diverse as Butthole Surfers, Nine Inch Nails, Beck, Alice in Chains, the Eels, Sneaker Pimps, Tool, Fiona Apple, and Third Eye Blind.

If you're looking for good old fashioned rock music that isn't over the top explicit, but made in the modern day, you have GOT to check out The Warning. They are bringing rock music BACK! I would recommend checking out their performance of "EVOLVE" from the MTV VMA's in 2023.
YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.
ROB TV ALERT!! BRING IT!
Bruh, I've always loved this song, how did I not notice the chin strap!? LMFAO
So stoked that you dig this kind of sound. I love your reactions. But, sometimes I feel like the people suggesting your music are pushing you more to the metal stuff like Pantera and Slipknot. Don't get me wrong, they have some cool songs.... but I always (personally) preferred stuff closer to this. Yes, punk-pop, is what I would call it.

I know you've done a couple of those bands.... but, they have more hits to go through.
At any rate, if you keep making them, I'll keep watching, liking and commenting.
I can definitely respect that, after "Grippy" and "Wah gwan Delilah", Rob is done with reacting to "Kendrick vs Drake" material...
This genre is called 90s alternative. Pop-punk would be bands like Good Charlotte and Panic At The Disco.
This was the first CD I ever had. I had plenty of cassettes, but this was my first CD. Unfortunately I didn't actually get a CD player for some time after.

If you like War Pigs from Black Sabbath i recommend the cover from REDZED. He likes to mix rock/metal with rap and horrorcore. Czech Republic Represent :)
Say it Ain’t So and Buddy Holly from Weezer are quintessential 90’s songs. For Ladies’ night: Pagan Poetry from Bjork and Violet from Hole
This is completely off topic and unsolicited advice so sorry, but I work in optics and have heard you complain about reflections in your glasses when you're doing reactions - get an anti-reflective coating! It will help a lot with viewers being able to see your eyes, and probably make the glasses feel nicer to look out of.
Tony Hawk Pro Skater energy is a perfect description lol
Fucking love their debut album (where this song came from). Another good song from it is Graduate. Highly recommend, similar vibe.
Duuude!! You should check out "Mastermind", by Megadeth. Super underrated band, very underrated song.
You should do “My Sharona” by The Knack. Incredible guitar solo.
Or “Caress me down” by sublime, just love that song
Would love to see you review some Jimi Hendrix.... Preferably Purple Haze, but All Along the Watchtower would be great too. Loving your channel by the way. It's fun to rediscover these songs with someone comming at them for the first time.
@robtv have you done any Guns N’ Roses songs? Was taking a look but don’t see anything. Feels like an absolute no-brainer for your channel.

Dude, really enjoying your trip into white music.
Beatles - tomorrow never knows
Radio Head - Paranoid Android
We stopped having happy music like this in...oh say....right around 2001ish 😞 the events of that year changed our moods, things got heavier
I cannot recommend enough that you try reviewing Sevendust, particularly the song Denial. It's a sure shot
You’ve gotta do some Soundgarden. Rusty Cage, Outshined, Black Hole Sun, or Burden in my Hand would all be good first listens
If you like Tony Hawk music, go with the OG Tony Hawk song: “Superman” by Goldfinger.
alternative white people music is probably like 70% of why i turned out the way i am. i love seeing first reactions/opinions that earnestly engage with the material, this whole playlist makes me feel so vindicated for my 14 year old self lol.
if you take suggestions, you should check out prayer of the refugee by rise against, or ocean avenue by yellowcard!
also if you haven't heard any japanese rock, you should consider listening! jrock is heavily inspired by early punk & goth subculture & there are tons of great bands. the craziest & cleanest instrumentals i've ever heard have been from jrock artists, def worth looking into if you're liking american rock/metal!
