review hectic reacts alex hefner dragonforce reaction 
Развлечения
the "mother" is a metaphor for society, children being forced to obey rules and become brainwashed. Mother society abuses it's children for not thinking the way she wants them to think. The son hitting the mother is society fighting against these rules and turning aggressive against it
bump
Happy to see someone get it.
Aaron 102 YES!!! I absolutely agree with you!! You get it!!! 💥🤘
You're exactly right
Up!
The look of surprise on your face when it went dark was priceless.
It was! Lol
Omg his face was like "wait.....did I just hear that????"
Fucking priceless haha
I was crouched at my desk for is face expression lol... hysterical...
i was waiting for the reaction when that part was coming up haha
6:10 all I could think about was “he’s not ready”
they never are
🤣🤣
I thought THE SAME HAHAHAHA
🤣
The Birds My Word haha I just rewatched his reaction 😂😂😂😂😂
Me: why would the official video be shorter? What would they cut-
*Remembers that ONE part of the song*
Me: *Oh*
Ehhh Ohhh which one was that?
@@seth2451 if I was a wwe superstar this would be my entrance theme
@@seth2451 but not the part with the part with dont hit me mommy
@@ravenwalker2080 totally agree.... To be fair I could imagine so many superstars having this as their entrance now
I don't think I've ever heard the full version of this song until now.
Song begins.
ALEX: [vibing, headbanging]
ALEX DURING BREAKDOWN: O_O
ALEX AFTER BREAKDOWN: [confused headbanging]
I love that he stopped chewing his snickers.
@@Hamletfa53cuz he was so shocked 😂
Doctor: Can you cough for me?
Patient: OH WAH AH AH AH
Doctor: It seems that you have come down with the sickness
This should be top comment
And then he says “no but really you have a life threatening respiratory disease”
Wow you actually made me laugh. Thank You!
10/10
That actually made me laugh, thanks for joke.
The facial definition of, "Well, that took a turn..."
Sharp trip south.
6:15
I've listened to it more times than I can count, and I'm still never prepared for it
"it's a definite Playlist song... His eyes at 6:45"
I almost pissed myself laughing
Same dude....... same. He looked absolutely terrified LMAO
Same his face was priceless
I was crying at that point because I was laughing so hard at his expression lmfao
for real, his face was funny as hell
I was so happy when he said no censored bullshit. I'm like, we about to now if he was faking or not. Nope, he is authentic.
I love your reactions to Disturbed! Priceless. I'm a 66 year old grandmother and have listened to disturbed forever. Coming from addiction myself, quite simply put, being abused brings up a rage that is hard to describe. Not all who are abused go on to abuse their children or whoever but can certainly understand the rage. Some do become violent though. Raised in an abusive family, and going on to become an addict/ alcoholic (in recovery now for 33 years), I can still identify with that dark place. This music actually helps to quell that in a more constructive way than say, breaking stuff.
Amen. For me it describes me perfectly in my teen years.. What Alex Hefner forgets that in the break down it starts with... And when I dream... Not literally beating his mom but in his dreams he does. I lived that for many years because of her abuse. I am 53 years old and it still effects me sometimes. I also am a recovering addict been in recovery for 20 years. Thank you for your words it's good to know I am not the only one
The analysis at the top of the comments- about metaphors for society and youth... kinda feels like it's coming from someone who _didn't_ experience actual abuse, and so fails to fully relate. Ironically, the song confused Alex, and that confusion is EXACTLY what the song is about. The "demon in me" is the darkness that arises from abuse, and which conflicts with the healthy person one wants to be.
You’re like the coolest grandma! The fact that you appreciate this music is really awesome- I just enjoy hearing these interesting stories and the people behind it:) (this is coming from a 15 year old by the way), I really hope you’re doing ok by now
@@randpierce3278 me too. Been clean for like 6 years ish now. And music like those was my entire teen years because my parents were abusive. I'm still slow to trust people and tailor a long time to get comfortable enough be vulnerable. Music like this is literally the only reason I survived. And I do mean that because id sit there with a razor blade in my hand and listen to the same songs over and over again, thinking "fuck this, if im gonna die I just wanna hear this one more time first." Then when I was a junkie, odd listen to this same music from my teen years on repeat just to get through the million times I was dope sick. There's a few handfuls of bands that genuinely helped me survive
I’m 60 this year and I LOVE metal and hard rock. This song is awesome.
LMFAO the mommy part had me in tears laughing at the reaction. The whole song I just kept saying... Wait for it.... LMFAO
did the same
The mommy part I did not get back then ...pls believe I thought it was some sick demonic shit going on
Harvester Of Sorrow 😄😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣! Too funny bruh!!
Problem is thats not the original xD. Luckily
Same! When he said that "playlist song for sure", I got all giddy wondering if it was the album version, or the cut down version.
Ah, nuts...spilled my popcorn...
this is what the lead singer, david driaman says about the meaning of the song- 'speaks about the eternal struggle of the individual against the mother culture of society that is constantly trying to beat the child struggling for independence and individuality into submission.'
Read this @Alex Hefner
stephanie reeves his meaning blew my personal one out the water haha I'll use both tho each one can drive you into sickness
I love how he was so bewildered by the Mother rant and cautiously goes back to head bopping.
“Cautiously head bopping” is the greatest description ever and it’s so accurate 😂
My first thought when you said you wanted the full experience was “uh oh”
Choosing 'Down With the Sickness' before 'The Sound of Silence' to hear their "true" sound first
Choosing a lyric video over the official video to not get a radio edit
Damn right, Alex! Doing it all right :D
PlexyPanda I appreciate that! Gotta give y’all what you want ❤️🤘🏼
Alex Hefner :D :D :D
Agreed. I would choose "Stricken" or "Voices" or countless other songs...but DO NOT listen to Sound of Silence first. "Sound..." is a transcendent piece of music...but it's NOT "Disturbed"....
hell yeah respect
Agreed. "Sound of Silence" is amazingly done.
I personally would've like a bit less shouting near the end, but I can't deny that they took a song that is about as far away from what they usually do, and gave it their own spin. While still showing respect to the original.
"This is such a playlist song!" Couple of seconds later "👀" 😂😂😂
First 2/3 of the song - Alex: "This is dope"
Last 1/3 of the song - Alex: "WTF! That got dark"
I was patiently awaiting the reaction to the breakdown and I was not disappointed 🤣🤣
Hey it's good that u were patient, ur a polite human being... Oh wait no ur not u watch porn and u will admit it HAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA
@@heavymetalrules436 the fuck are you smoking?
Dude looks more and more like a metal head each time i tune in! Hes switching team's
Welcome to the dark side!
That's what happens when you discover something with superior lyricism and musicianship
@@jmcb5215 that's hilarious
because people are only allowed to like one thing apparently.
What team does he belong to ?
6:02 he doesn't know what he's getting into
6:50 - looks like Alex cant belive what just happened... LOL
Only watched this one for the bridge lol so good
so funny
7:00 after the shock his favorite chorus comes and he is like...do I get back into the mood.....what happened....does a slight head bang
"The song is actually a metaphor for government and the child represents the citizens"
Even if it WAS about society/govt/whatever, and wasn't about an abusive person, the lyrics and principle still apply. Abusers are twisted. Abusers are terrible people. Being a parent does not get them a free pass. Abusers deserve to have whatever they dish out inflicted back upon them. Abusers deserve to be destroyed. Abusers deserve no mercy.
And to be fair if you didn't grow up in an abusive home you may not have the same respect for your mother. We give the title a certain amount of respect but that doesn't mean everyone who holds the title is worthy of that respect. Same goes for any title.
Dog eat Dog world, find your pack/tribe.
6:46 ...... His face is priceless. I knew the part was coming up and couldn't wait to see it
6:11 -- Yeah... I was waiting the whole song to see your reaction to that bridge. The fact that you were getting into it so much made it all the better.
Yup
This song has deep meaning to me, my own mother was manipulative and abusive to me until the day she disowned me. So this song hits me deep
His eyes during the "Mommy" part. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
Alex looked so happy then he heard David Drainman sing about his mom. And his face changed slowly.
Definitely the best part of the video!!
Just wait... was probably my primary thought throughout.
Andrew Olesen Mine too. I was waiting for that part.
I knew when the mommy bit came Alex wouldn’t have liked it and I laughed so hard at his reaction
FoodIt3ms it's not actually about his mom though, he says it in an interview
I think you got a bit "Disturbed" when the mother part came on...
;)
Are we going to war? I thought I was the only one wearing my gas mask. lol
I like it
FILTH child abuse solo, that’s everyone’s reaction haha
If u ever seen disturbed u know. WE ARE ALL
@@stevenrickevicius90 really?!
Holy shit, your expression when it went off was amazing. I haven't laughed so hard through this entire quarantine
How about "let the bodies hit the floor"
Yes 😂
Let the bodies hit the
Ts Ts
FLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOR
Daddy by KoRn
@@kellyblank8746 He has reacted to that.
It's called bodies and it's by drowning pool... Let your body hit the floor.
This is a quote about this song by the lead singer, David Draiman: "speaks about the eternal struggle of the individual against the mother culture of society that is constantly trying to beat the child struggling for independence and individuality into submission." Disturbed is solid band that really finds a way to be badass, 'heavy' and accesable for new metalheads, non metalheads. The singer is seriously good. Up there with the top metal clean vocalists, no doubt. I recommend you to listen to stricken by disturbed. I think you'll really like that one. You don't have to do a reaction to that one, since you already did Disturbed now.
I recommend December flower- In Flames. This is the same genre as Twilight of the thunder gods, but not Viking themed
bump
He did it, 3 weeks ago ;-)
I just saw the video and recommended a different song now.
Best known for the most iconic random noise ever made lol.
Think of how his band mates felt the first time he belted it out during practice lol
Ow wah ah ah ah
@@lalacorn5138 He probably ate something super spicy, then he was coughing it up, and the band decided to keep it.
I love coming back to these earlier reactions, and think of how far you've come in listening to many different types of music. Still back when was , and is cool.
You wanted their typical sound, down with the sickness is definitely their sound
Lol and now you know why there's a shorter version
Yes, absolutely. I get David's message with the song, but for everyday listening (especially when introducing teenagers to Disturbed) I prefer the shorter version.
@@Kayjee17 definitely understand your position...but I figure I was unexpectedly broken in by the psycho abusive version, newbies should be too. I mean, they are Disturbed after all...
The radio near me about a decade ago did play a shorter version and it was mostly uncensored.
Both the "Ah Shit" and "Fucker" said in the chorus weren't censored.
The only thing that was was done was it jumped right from the last "And When I Dream" right to the end of the "Talky Part", skipping it entirely.
Within the last few years with all the PC people crying, they went back and re-edited it.
Everything that was allowed is now censored, but the entire talky part is put back in (only f-bombs and shit censored).
So near me, they don't play the shorter version anymore, but it's still more censored (kinda a shame).
Personally, I'd accept the shorter version that it used to be before if there was no other censoring.
You have the same youtube pic as my xbox one pic XD
@@Kayjee17 damn, I was a teenager when this came out. I think I was 13 or 14.
Well, she hasn't been much of a mother if she has been beating the living shit out of you. You don't own any respect or love to someone just because they are related to you if they have done nothing to deserve it. She's been so abusive that she's turned someone into a violent crazy person. You reap what you sow.
PlugInKali amen to that
Exactly she became the victim of what she created
PlugInKali i agree
PlugInKali agreed fuckin like she will reap what she sews
PlugInKali but thats not what he meant
6:13 - 6:59 That transition of Alex's facial expression is priceless! 🤣
Your face during the my favorite part of the song was priceless!!! I needed that laugh thank you so much 💕
Your face when the Mom part came on was PRICELESS. Hahaha so great. Also, thanks again for the Opeth video! I’ve listened to that whole album like 3 times since yesterday lol.
thescottallen hahaha no problem ❤️
I’ve been mad all day, but you made me smile!
It makes me very happy to see you so excited to hear this band. Alex, bro, if you ever get the opportunity, see them perform live. You will not regret nor forget it. Thanks again as always for the great content, man.
Love that you did this first to get their real sound. Something I wish other reaction channels would do. Great content bro.
OMG ........dude ....LMAOOOOOOOOOOOO @ your face when he starts dissing mother . I spit out my water dude ....wow that was priceless .
FRED FLINTER I was eating something and saw your post and had to put it down definitely would’ve choked
FRED FLINTER same! Boy was shook!!! I’m a big Disturbed fan! I crack up at the reaction people have!
RIGHT! I was just waiting to see how he would react to that part Haha
FRED FLINTER i started pissing myself laughing
FRED FLINTER that was fucking funny as hell man, was expecting his reaction
LMAO!!!! That look on your face!! I haven't laughed this hard in a long time. Thank you! 😂😂😂
I laughed uncontrollably for too long at that😂😂😂
I love you brother...but how did you make 15 years into life without hearing this song?
Omfg i'm literally lmfao....your facial expression during the mommy part. Your killing me!🤣
Lmao! He wasn't sure about headbanging after the dark part😂😂😂
"But this chorus is just sooo dope"
Lol oh just you wait bro. 😂
My thoughts exactly
His face is sooo amazing at the messed up part 😂
Haha best!
Shelby that's what I was thinking luv this song and disturbed lol
Shelby yeah theres some bloody good old Disturbed songs.
You are a hoot! Great critique! Glad you agree that Disturbed are awesome! (I love your signature too!) OOHHH AAHHH AAHHHH AAHHH!!!!!
Omg this song helped me get through any beating I used to get as a child. Like the aggression in his voice just calmed me down cause l left my anger in that one part so I’m happy you listened to the lyrics video and not the official one where that part is cut out.
This has been in my workout playlist for like 15 years
I think it is in everyone's workout playlist lol
@@akarbit3r111 agree
Same
Lazy-Assed Wanderer it's a great song lmao
This fukn dude makes me sick
The lead singer David Draiman is actally classically trained in opera. You'll see his range when you do Sound of Silence
Michael Tabor no, you don't really hear his range on that song.
Michael Tabor He does more vocally in songs like Never Again(if I'm remembering the right song.)
I guess from your reaction to the "mother" part, that you've probably had a good one...mother I mean... I assume she cared about you, took decent care of you, protected you the best way she could...Right? Some of us haven't had quite the same experience...
That’s not what that part of the song is abt
Alex Hefner you awesome!!! I love seeing your videos!!!. The very first time I saw you was when you saw my fav band BVB "Knifes and Pens". ❤.
This is their arguably most 'famous' song, but definitely not their best imho.
I highly recommend:
Inside The Fire (about his girlfriend who committed suicide)
Indestructable
Stricken
The Animal
Perfect Insanity
The Night
Haunted
Another Way To Die (About how humans are destroying the planet)
A few of my favorites
Stacy Schauls Agreed. And the metaphor makes the song seem more dark than their typically uplifting/empowering lyrics are. Stupify is off the same album and it's better than Sickness overall imo.
Stacy Schauls fuck yea draimans voice and lyrical style is just genius
100% Inside the Fire. That song is just so well put together.
Torn should be in this list :^
Droppin plates wasn’t terrible and imo better than down with the sickness but yeah I think stupify took the plate on that album
by 6:51 he's been permanently traumatized lol
Jaq Wyld True his face
Oh fuck XD his face......priceless
😂😂😂
So was I when I first heard that part
Jaq Wyld his face was priceless
It's absolutely commendable to hear what a group "is about" first *and then* what is relevant right now just for the views, shows a true care for the music and interest in a band. Congratualtions.
I try to watch this video about once a month strictly for the amusement I get watching your face change as the dark 'interlude' progresses - HAHA! Priceless!
Stupify is my favorite disturbed song. You should listen to that one on your own own time.
His reactions to the mom part was hilarious
I was literally laughing out loud because I think we all felt exactly as he looked the first time we heard that part.
I about died with the instant drop in is face in that part hahahaha
dudeeeeee your face reaction with the portion about the "mom" part was priceless... you reminded me the first time some mormon missionaries were visiting my home and I had this song on and the face on the missionaries was priceless
I'm so happy you did the full song! Your reaction was amazing!
There is literally a plethora of songs you should check out that they did.
Prayer
Remember
Indestructible
Stricken
Decadence
Enough
Facade
Warrior
Serpentine
Innocence
The Vengeful One
I'm sure you would love any of those
Randal Quick love the Vengeful one. Another great one is The Light
I concur, my good sir.
I'm sooo glad you bypassed the sound of silence as EVERYONE has done a reaction. This is Disturbed as they are. As I tell my friends "get down with the sickness". David has an insane voice
I've been a fan of your reactions for years but seeing your reaction to the bridge sections made me laugh freaking hard bruh, I can't believe I missed this one😭😭😭😭
Alex ur reaction when he blew up had me rollin. The innocence of you chewing food right before. You had no idea wat was coming your way
Disturbed have a ton of cool songs. Try the curse or the night
Du Riechst So Gut also inside the fire
wrong band there haha
Lajk Lajk Wym
sry was your name hahaha
Du Riechst So Gut your Name is also the Name of a rammstein Song... Are you from germany? :D
Your face when that mommy part hit. 😂👌
Now we know that he answer to the question : "How extreme do your lyrics have to be in order to freak out a hip hop dude?"
Nah em has some really extreme lyrics
Your expression had me rolling!!😄 Get up with the Sickness!! 🎸👊✌💥
I always looked at is at that part that kind of worried you, directly follows..."and when I dream.....when I dream..." I always took that as him dreaming of how he'd push back, and that the rest of the song is all that hatred and negative energy turning him into something that he's not...maybe even to the point of following in her footsteps. I always thought of it as him dreaming how he would/should have reacted to her, not that he really did.
this is what davis said about this song- 'speaks about the eternal struggle of the individual against the mother culture of society that is constantly trying to beat the child struggling for independence and individuality into submission.'
Dude, you have to watch Stupify. Not should. HAVE TO. Its classic Disturbed.
I agree and try to play a live video of Stupify. If you want energy you definitely need to see one of their live shows. I saw them at Music as a Weapon V and it was awesome. One of the best birthday present I ever gotten lol.
Yessss.
Your face on the middle break of the song had me rolling on the floor.
okay sorry but your face when the skit part came on had me laughing uncontrollably 😂
LMAO I was waiting for your reaction to the "Mommy" part and you didn't disappoint. Great reaction.
He grabbed that candy at the worst time possible 😂😂😂😂 loved this song in middle school man, always gonna be a metal classic!!!
Haydee Mullins when he said “not to aggressive” I laughed so loud.
Haydee Mullins I got goosebumps cause I haven’t heard this song since middle school
Bro I was just waiting for your reaction once the second half of the song started, priceless LMFAO I died!!! 🤣😂😄😅😂
“This is sooo dope”
I was like wait for it... 😂😂
Drowning Pool- Bodies, is a classic along the lines of Down with the Sickness.
Ghost - Square Hammer. Do it.
Drew Zaio i agree
He really would love it. Rats, Ritual, and Monstrance Clock as well.
James from avgn approves :-)
Yasssss
agree, can't believe he hasn't done ghost yet
I deadset sat through that whole video just to see your reaction when it went dark that was epic 😂😂
Disturbed is one of my favorites for sure!!!!! And this song is one of my favorites from them! It was the first song I had from them and fell in love instantly lol
Ten Thousand Fists! 👊 Stricken was on Guitar Hero. Land of Confusion is an awesome cover of the Genesis song.
Still wating for that Devil in i video to drop
it has to happen. i've been waiting for ages as well
It will one day...
that would be great
I still say he needs to see either ‘Psychosocial’ or ‘Dead Memories’ first. It helps some of the imagery in ‘The Devil in I’ make more sense.
Yaaaas
The look on your face when mommy comes home is priceless!
We the older generation that have know of this greatness welcome you. There is a wealth of musical yumminess to be heard!!😁 Also if you haven't already..Queensryche Empire and Faith no more Epic should also be in your playlist.
An abusive parent should never be seen as a parent. it should be viewed as an abuser getting their comeuppance and nothing more. Though the song isn't meant to be taken literally.
People who have never been abused by their parents cant relate. Believe it or not some people parents are monsters and some children hate those monsters. Hes expressing his emotions and not for a minute do i believe its a metaphor for society. Whoever wrote this song was abused by their parents. Trust me.
The singer has straight up said its a metaphor. He may well have been abused but not by his parents. Its also quite possible it was inspired from a friends abuse. Dave is quite the champion for mental illness.
True, true.
Keep it up Alex, these reaction videos are awesome! Can't wait for the ''Iron Maiden" reaction though!
Pls react to Cannibal Corpse
Exactly!! Imagine him reacting to Hallowed be thy name...
That look of concern at the end when shit got real dark during the "when I dream" breakdown.ohhhh my God..I literally pissed myself laughing.
Love you, Alex!!
That reaction to the chorus, that excitement was the best.! I lovee watching people discover new music.♡
Watching the "dopeness" drain from your face during the speaking part near the end was priceless.
Been watching your channel for some time and have watched this video multiple times. It is by far my fave of your reacts; I still bust up when your face freezes, horrified, during the "mommy" part! For those that loved this react check out his react to Cradle of Filth 'Her Ghost in the Fog'!
Your reactions towards the end 😂😂
Disturbed is the shit finally u react to them
More of Disturbed! :) Indestrucitible, The Night, The Asylum, The Animal... :D
New subscriber here!! Loving the genre mixup 🤟🏻🤟🏻😎😎😎
lol Your expression was priceless during the part yelling profanity mom part.
Did you see his face? He got soo disturbed...
No
Ow ah ah ah bruda
Geno - 515 He said it guys, He said the thing!
Lol cringey yet HILARIOUS
The "mother" is meant metaphorically for the Society!
„The son hitting the mother“ is society fighting turning aggressive against it!
I have been waiting for this react video for a very long time. Yes, finally!
Greetings from Austria!!
Beate Wegleitner this makes a lot more sense!
Danke fürs erklären! 8000x gehört und nie aus der Perspektive betrachtet :D
Plus geile Haarfarbe \m/
Dom Okami wie meinst du das 8000x gehört aber nie aus der Perspektive betrachtet? Bitte erkläre mir das! Ich lerne immer gerne dazu!
(Kein Sarkasmus!!)
Danke für‘s Kompliment😊
gerne :D das Lied gehört zum Standard in Rockclubs und wenn ich feiern geh, dann meistens in solchen. Da es dann dort immer läuft, hör ich es seltener privat und befasse mich demnach auch nicht so krass mit den lyrics oder der metaphorischen Aussage dahinter wie Mutter=Gesellschaft usw., wie ich es vielleicht sonst tun würde. Deswegen war es cool zu lesen dass das jemand so auf den Punkt gebracht erklärt hat, gerade weil man ja doch zu manchen Songs Bezug hat aber sie nicht wirklich interpretiert hat :D
Außerdem bist du Österreicherin und da musste ich sowieso antworten^^
Dom Okami Ja, ich Liebe dieses Lied!
Da hast du vollkommen recht, mit deiner Aussage!
Es gibt auch viele Lieder die man voll super findet u. immer wieder gerne hört, aber die man nicht aus einer anderen Perspektive sieht.
Du bist auch aus Österreich, das finde ich toll! 😊
In welche Clubs gehst du?
Ich würde gerne mehr über dich erfahren!🤗
So so happy you found the uncensored version to listen to as the "Mother" outro is cut from the song and the song is SO SO famous with 80-90% of it's fanbase never having heard the Mother bit and therefore still not knowing the real meaning behind the song. It's crazy how that one part changes the meaning or what you take from the song(the vibe) and to think that most people have never even heard that part
