Agreed!! I put them in my big 10 of U.S. thrash bands. The big 10 includes the big 4 of Anthrax, Megadeth, Metallica, and Slayer, of course, with Flotsam And Jetsam included in the other six along with Testament, Overkill, Exodus, Death Angel, and Sacred Reich.
What damaged Flotsam's popularity, if comparing with other thrash metal bands, like the big four, was their name. I like it, actually, but it's definitely not catchy. Now you have a band named Metallica, Megadeth or Slayer, heck, definitely captures attention. These things matter.
@@8755drb I always had my 'Big 4' different from the mainstream Big 4. I swap Slayer for Testament. As far as that goes, I like Overkill more than Anthrax.
I grew up in the 80's and I thought this type of metal music is gone now, but these guys are always loyal to what they love doing, thanks so much for still making true metal alive always, hats off to these metal legends, hail flotsam jetsam
It's a shame where metal is today. I've almost entirely converted to Drum N Bass and Techno as they've remained quite steady for 2 decades. Metal has been oversaturated with screamo-core bands and hiphop mathrock
Eric A.K. has always been an amazing talent. This tune showcases his prowess at the "ferocious growl" that most metal singers can only mimic. Using vocal power with conviction is a rare gift. F n J fan since the debut, "Doomsday For the Deceiver" Saw them at Toad's Place in New Haven, Ct. (with Prong the opening act) while touring to promote "No Place For Disgrace." An unforgettable epic show!
Saw them for the first of 2 times on the same tour in downtown Orlando, Florida at the Beacham Theater. Prongs 1st major U.S. tour promoting their debut LP Beg To Differ. I have collected every one of Flots' releases along the way & still regard the debut Doomsday for the Deceiver as their best. This was the sole full-length with Jason Newsted in the band line-up & is just a roaring monster of an LP that I consider to be one of the absolute best thrash metal albums of all time. "I LIVE, YOU DIE"...Flots til death!
I remember being a 14 year old kid and seeing these guys in the neighborhood, including their then bassist Jason Newsted who a year later became the bass player for Metallica! Fun times in Scottsdale!
Mesa, Arizona here man! Been a Flotsam & Jetsam fan since Cuatro dropped! I know it is a slower album, but it still is awesome! I remember buying the album on cassette and getting a free F&J T-Shirt at Zia Records in Tempe! Wish I had that shirt now. lol
Killer song! They're definitely firing on all cylinders. Ken Mary is a monster drummer! I love that there's such an attention to melody on top of the heaviness. Can't wait to see them in concert!
Eric hasn’t lost a thing over the years , one of Metal’s premiere vocalists ! Flotz never disappoint , still putting out albums other bands wish they could put out ! Cheers from Canada 🤘 Flotz ‘Til Death
Well no he can't hit those high falsetto long sustain notes any more. Which not many can do after mid 30's to 40's. But outside of that solid as hell for 38+ years. Overkill is kind of the same. They've continually pumped solid heavy tracks over their nearly 4 decades. Exodus is another prime example.
Amazing!!!!!! Old progression of tunes...old style riffs......old guys playing..... but is always fresh music... fresh pure heart and blood of metal!!!! Amazing tune!! Amazing and real Metalhead music!!!!!! Flotsam is at Vanguard of true metal music!! From all the times!!
You make me feel old that I've been a fan since their debut album, but "No Place for Disgrace" solidified it. And seen them 5 times. Its amazing they are still raging forward. Flotz till death! \m/
I’ve been a fan since 1986 when “Doomsday for the Deceiver” came out. I originally had interest in them due to Jason Newsted because he’s from Michigan. They sound amazing as ever. Check out the album from them called “The Cold”...it’s epic.
best song, I've ever heard form them, you can hear the experinece of a band making music for a long time together with the power and enegry of a young band.. just awesome.. hope I can hear this live soon..
I love the raw sound and power. My musical taste has gone more Scandinavian but Flotsam has been one of the few that has kep my feet ground in US metal.
Thrash is alive and well. It's competitive again like it was when it first started. The power and strength is growing before us. Good times we are living in.
to think... there was a time, right around when Drift came out, where I could sing very close to how Eric was sounding then... I eventually grew older and lost it. Eric didn't... not even a tiny bit. Hell, he's better than ever, and that's been the case every damn release Flotz put out. Benjamin Button of metal much?
Excellent Thrash Metal song ( and band ). It's cool to see and hear them adding elements of SPEED METAL into the track . They did so well on No Place for Disgrace . Ntm easily one of the very best singers in Thrash Metal within the past 40 years hands down .
This song just freakin kicks ass! I can’t wait to get the entire album next week. I’m so glad they got Ken Mary in the band. One of the best Rock/Metal Drummers ! 🤘😎
I worked as security and also helped book bands at a venue in Arnprior Ontario, Canada. We booked Flotsam for a headlining show on a date when they were out on tour with Hammerfall. They were absolutely flawless and incredible live. Still one of the highlights of my time working in that venue. Great guys as well!!! Stoked for this new album!
@@kenkmaryofficial you rule Ken! Our venue was sold and the owner moved on to a new venture, but hopefully myself and other staff can catch you guys on tour somewhere else at some point. Cheers!

Loved these guys since Doomsday. Eric A.K. is one of the most underrated singers EVER!
I started listening these guys with Doomsday too, cheers from Mexico city!!!🤘🤘🤘
Doomsday and No Place are in my vinyl collection from back in the day 🤘🤘
So awesome seeing them releasing these new killer albums
Same and agree as well
Doomsday was awesome
Dude I totally agree..he's sick!!
The drums are amazing. Ken Mary rules!!!
Agreed
Thank you for the kind words my friends!
FIFTH ANGEL!
Excuse my nerd, I grew up in Bellevue, WA. Been a Ken Mary fan since way back in the day!
@@thereallycool That is a few years back, but I have great memories of WA!
Chastain, House Of Lords and Fifth Angel all ruled. 🤘
IMO one of the most underrated bands ever. But luckily they don't let it stop them and still KILL IT for those of us who love it!! 🤘🔥🤘

Guys from North East India in 80s 90s had great taste in music before rap and latest music took over just like everywhere else.
Gone? Never
Most of the old thrash dudes are still making strong music today,!
❤ fuck yeah I second that. I'm hooked on this band.
After all these years....amazing.
They’ve always deserved much more attention. Great band.
The Big Four will never touch this album! This is mastery!
Flotsam and Jetsam non-stop kicking ass since the beginnings!
Been a fan since No Place for Disgrace, this song rips in true Flotz tradition!

Best thrash metal album the last 10 years! The older bands still delivers!
Thank you very much for the support and kind words!! 🔥🔥🔥
Flotsam is back
The mixing and production is the best they’ve ever had in my opinion. Great job!!
Seen you live on the tour with Megadeth, Sanctuary and Testament on May, 27th 1988 and now almost 33 years later your music still is fantastic.

Flots never disappoint. Look forward to getting my CD in June!
Yeah we definitely need to brace for impact of this new album 🤘
Some bands get old
Some mature
F&J matured like a fine wine......with an incredible punch ! 🤘
Love Flotsam! Great part of metal history and obviously present! These first two songs are amazing. Drummer kicks ass here too
Great video,great song,great performance, great vocals ,great guitars,great bass, great drumming....enough said for a masterpiece.
I like... (update: Very happy with my purchase)
Echos of the power of a young Bruce Dickinson in the vocal delivery here. Very strong indeed.
Great stuff seen Flotz numerous times my favorite was in 91 When the storm comes down tour also my favorite release
The new flotsam is awesome!
One of the best bands on the planet. These guys are Awesome. Real Thrash Metal band.
Eric hasn’t lost a thing over the years , one of Metal’s premiere vocalists ! Flotz never disappoint , still putting out albums other bands wish they could put out ! Cheers from Canada 🤘 Flotz ‘Til Death
ruclips.net/video/hEb0scVJXYo/видео.html
They haven't lost an inch of momentum. If anything, they're more relevant than ever. This is one kick ass tune!
Absolutely fantastic album. Top three of ‘21 along with Helloween and Maiden.
@@benedictdonald4338 Also check out Todd La Torre Rejoice In The Suffering ! Cheers from Canada 🤘 Stay Heavy

All these years and A.K. is still one of the best singers ever and they're still the most under rated band on earth.
It's staggering how good these guys still are. Bravo.

Keep Rockin guys
When the tour starts I hope they do two shows here in the home town! Preferably in the East valley!
Flotz continues to surprise and excite me after all these years, I hope they have even bigger success than before with the new album!
They just keep getting better with age!!!!
I've been a fan since Cuatro. They are as pure as metal gets.
That and COC Blind are my top two albums to date!!
You make me feel old that I've been a fan since their debut album, but "No Place for Disgrace" solidified it. And seen them 5 times. Its amazing they are still raging forward.

Reminds me of "No Place for Disgrace" ... great!
Erik A.K.s voice sounds amazing! Very cliche type of lyrics but it's a catchy song. Glad Flotsam is back!
Hell yeah!!!!! Great record boys!!!

Long Live Metal🤘🏼🖤🔥🎸🎶
One of the great ones. Still are.
Tell me guys, how You do it... Playing for many years, but getting better and better, not running out of ideas. This album is f**king great!
His voice still punches you in the mouth. Great track boys.
That drums
Flotz never disappoints. Killer albums since day one.🤘💀🤘
I love the raw sound and power. My musical taste has gone more Scandinavian but Flotsam has been one of the few that has kep my feet ground in US metal.
Have you heard Deceiver Riding With The Reaper? Swedish I believe, but great style, like a rougher 80s speed metal
@@hmpz36911 Nope. I looked them up. Reminds me a lot of Coronor.
There is only one Flots!!
35 years later! This band still kick ass and prove that they are a cult band in the Speed-thrash Métal!!! Suffer the masses :P
The riffs are sounding vicious!
Still kicking ASS!!!!
This band seems to get better with age.
This should have a billion views
🤘wow continued with great metal music🤘
The god of metal!!!!
What a song! Simply fantastic! Now that's what I call metal!
Great Band thats for sure cant wait for the new album
Thrash is alive and well. It's competitive again like it was when it first started. The power and strength is growing before us. Good times we are living in.
The prophets of thrash metal.. listen to the lyrics from this album it's predicting days to come
Holy Shit ! This is the best FLotsam & Jetsam Stuff since No Place for Disgrace
Hellyeah! That's called Real Metal.
🔥🔥🔥

man, i love this, i love this voice
Hell yeah! Sounds great!
Cheers guys for putting out some quality thrash metal!!! Eternal hails from Finland \,,/
Would to see Flotsam here in Knoxville! You could play songs from only the last three albums and totally slay without even digging into the classics!
You guys still fucking get it!! That guitar tone 😍! God bless the boys that still make the noise!
Fantastic video, great song.
Never preordered before.This time i had no choice... 3 released songs from upcoming album are just amazing.
They 've never changed their style!
