This is for sure one of their "radio hits" style songs, but they do experiment quite a bit with different sounds. For the more traditional style of Hollywood Undead (thats also more recent) you could try Chaos and Wild in These Streets. Those songs keep the life and blood of the band, without straying too far into experimental or Radio friendliness. As much as I love this track and see it as a crowd hype song, you guys have good criticisms, thats whats so great about us all being able to have different opinions. Love the vids, keep up the great work guys
Definitely, I'm upset for them, they chose one of the most meh songs the band has ever released, I don't blame them for not liking it... There are so many post Swan Songs bangers that they could react like California Dreaming, Been To Hell, Bullet, Hear Me Now, Comin' In Hot, We Are, Dead Bite, Time Bomb, Heart Of A Champion, Your Life, War Child, Levitate, Bad Moon, Up In Smoke, Outside, Renegade, Day Of The Dead, so many... And I don't agree when he says that Swan Songs is the best album, American Tragedy is definitely the best, followed by Notes From The Underground and thirdly Five.
Well, it's not a new direction, they basically doing lot of different "styles". You should check their first single "Chaos" off the upcoming album. I think it sounds more like what you expected from them ;)
Definitely check out like Day of The Dead...California Dreaming was another solid one...Bad Moon was really chill those are just a few off the top of my head
Happy that you guys finally reacted to Hollywood Undead, but sad that you had to see this, you should have reacted to CHAOS or Trap God, it's new songs too, but soooooo much better than this one! City Of The Dead it's ok song, it's a song to complement an album, HU should never have released this as single.
I hate how right you are about sounding like late Lostprophets 😅🙃 I canr unhear it now! Fun fact.... I was in the midst of getting a Lostprophets tattoo the very day after all the news broke... dodged a huge bullet that day!
@@nathandjohnny honestly, to think of the cover up, laser or wearing it gives me the shivers 😂😂 one of the worst cases of its kind in British History 🙃 still blew my mind that Tumblr girls condemned the band (that reformed under a new name) and the justice system for arresting him. Supporting him and offering themselves!... damn a mention of there name brings back memories 😂 hey by the way! You dudes rock! One of the best out there with Tank and Nik 💜
So happy to see you guys react to HU, which is my favourite band of all time, even if you didn't like it that much. I'd suggest you check out CHAOS instead, it's defo more interesting
As someone who used to listen to these guys a lot.. I will agree with some of the comments here, I miss Notes From the underground and American Tragedy HU. Lately it just feels like a lot of their stuff is uninspired and they quit with the masks awhile back which I personally thought was something that set them apart.
There album, new empire vol 1 was great, I've never been the biggest fan but my girlfriend got me to listen to that album and it's the best I've herd from them in a long time so I recommend maybe checking that out 😊
You need to check out Hollywood Undead song CHAOS!!! It's rock and rapping and screaming!! You'll be more impressed with their sound then. I agree that this song is not their best but they have had much better songs you just need to keep reacting to them. Check out BEEN TO HELL, SCAVA, BLOODY NOSE, CALIFORNIA DREAMING, WE ARE, LION.
City of the dead I believe is the most “radio rock” style song on the new album. Not bad but not my favorite. Would definitely suggest Wild In These Streets or Alone At The Top for a more traditional OG Hollywood Undead song. And Lion Eyes definitely speaks to me as a follow up from Black Dahlia.
City of the Dead is not their best newer song. I would listen ot Nightmare and Heart Of A Champion feat. Papa Roach & Ice Nine Kills. Those ones are fire
Yeah this was boring. I’m not a huge fan since the first album, but I feel like you guys would love “idol” with tech n9ne. Big riffs, lots of energy and crazy sound. That’s what got me re-interested in them
American Tragedy, Notes From The Underground and Fire are much better than first album, with American Tragedy being their masterpiece! And speaking of big rappers like Tech N9ne, they recorded one with rapper Jelly Roll.
I haven't liked the band as much since they lost Deuce many years ago. I don't mind some of their newer stuff, and this song in particular was pretty catchy (I liked the kind of... halloween guitar vibe in the 2nd half of the chorus), but nothing compares to their more emo rap roots. Also, regarding the band, it's mostly all the same people. They lost their drummer (da curlz(?)) and lead vocals (deuce), who Danny replaced. They still have J Dog, Johnny 3 Tears, Funny Man, and Charlie Scene. They haven't worn their masks for a while now, unfortunately. When you mentioned they didn't lose Funny Man, that was actually Johnny 3 Tears.
I like HU but agree that song was uninspired and forgettable. It wasn't bad but it wasn't worth playing intentionally. Nathan mentioned Set it Off. If Johnny hasn't checked them out songs like Wolf in Sheep's Clothing or Why worry? Would be great content.
As an HU fan, this is one of the most boring songs they’ve ever put out and I hate that this one of their big singles for the album. However, CHAOS, the other big marketed single, is way better than this and sounds the most similar to their earlier works. P.S. the lineup since their first album looks like this: Deuce was replaced by Danny (choruses) Johnny 3 Tears J-Dog Charlie Scene Funny Man Da Kurlzz (percussion) left the band 5 years ago
I 100% agree, City Of The Dead had huge potential but something was missing, the song feels incomplete, it lacked a sick bridge or a breakdown! CHAOS, Wild In These Streets and Trap God are much better than this one, especially CHAOS.
I'm the first one! Anyway I enjoyed the rap part a lot, but I didn't like the song: I do agree with Johnny about the repetitive enough to skip it soon like Nath said. I'll check out the old music
This song does nothing for me. There is nothing that stands out in it, other than the rap. But just plain and simple song, might as well have been a P!nk song with some spade. No thanks
I loved them when they first came out but now they just make garbage now imo one song is techno then it’s slow rock and then hip hop. They should have just stayed original. They Lost the masks and originality
I don't agree, I mean I agree that this song COTD is uninspired and forgettable, but they've released so many things much better than first album Swan Songs, with American Tragedy and Notes as their greatest works!!!

This comment is perfect. You’re a bloke that understands this band 🤘🏼🤘🏼
React to Chaos its their first single off their upcoming album,its way more unique and it has a sick video
Dance Gavin Dance - Die Another Day
Please do a reaction to "California dreaming by Hollywood undead I feel like Johnny would dig that one

More HU please check out chaos
Hellyeah, they definitely need to react to CHAOS, easily one of the best songs in band's entire discography!
100%. Chaos is definitely the better song from this upcoming album
@@markcrane1984 Until the moment *
Chaos is lit🔥🔥
I first discovered Hollywood undead in 7th grade. Crazy how time flies
Well, it's not a new direction, they basically doing lot of different "styles".
You should check their first single "Chaos" off the upcoming album. I think it sounds more like what you expected from them ;)
Check out CHAOS by them, it's also a new song which I think you might like more.
NO WAY?! FINALLY!!!
And they chose the worst song, poor things, they should have reacted to CHAOS
I'm genuinely baffled how they don't blow up on the radio, this is miles better than any shit today
Definitely check out like Day of The Dead...California Dreaming was another solid one...Bad Moon was really chill those are just a few off the top of my head
Also Usual Suspects is great as well

Masks hace become too common in metal
@@wintertrooper7918 Yeah, i can definitely agree with that. That is honestly probably why they stopped because it no longer set them apart.
More HU please❤️
Please react to their song Chaos and you won't regret it!!!

Rip Hollywood undead...
Did they just say it was "Funny Man" singing when it was J3T?
City of the Dead is a fun song but one of my lesser favs of their albums. I recommend check out Chaos, Lion Eyes, World War Me, or Dangerous
They're last single chaos is great I think it's better than this one tbh
If you want to try heavier songs
Chaos
Trap God
World war me
Reclaim
Off of their new album, they kind hit hard on those ones
Yeah this was boring. I’m not a huge fan since the first album, but I feel like you guys would love “idol” with tech n9ne. Big riffs, lots of energy and crazy sound. That’s what got me re-interested in them
American Tragedy, Notes From The Underground and Fire are much better than first album, with American Tragedy being their masterpiece! And speaking of big rappers like Tech N9ne, they recorded one with rapper Jelly Roll.
Yeah it was Soundwave, but I feel the music their much better then. Perhaps it's just me. But the song Chaos of this album was wayyyyyy better
Boys!! You’ve gotta do Kim Dracula’s song “make me famous”.. young dude from Tassy.. 🤘🏼
Hey guys can you check out the new Beartooth track pretty dope!
As in the one we did 10 minutes after it was released? Haha
So you have why is RUclips hiding that from me sorry boys!! Will watch now!!!

Pretty much since they got rid of the original singer they have sounded way loopier and not dark

@@josephmiller6713 Best opinion about city of the dead, i literally said how this song had aweosome unfilled potential.
I think you’ve picked one of their weaker songs from their newer stuff. Chaos is by far a better song
Hey !! Can you please check out Demi Lovato’s new song : Substance ?
Coming soon
I'm the first one!
Anyway I enjoyed the rap part a lot, but I didn't like the song: I do agree with Johnny about the repetitive enough to skip it soon like Nath said.
I'll check out the old music
Recommend checking Notes from the underground and American tragedy
@@Andrew_-nr7zt thanks
@@Andrew_-nr7zt Hellyeah, these are the best!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
@@giure4447 In addition to these 2, I also recommend you check out Five, these 3 are by far band's best albums!
@@josephmiller6713 wow, thank you!
Its definitely the weakest song they have on the album so far, Chaos is definitely best
This song was not a good one in my opinion and I love this band
Very inoffensive to a point where it's just boring. Definitely one of their weaker songs for me😅
This song does nothing for me. There is nothing that stands out in it, other than the rap. But just plain and simple song, might as well have been a P!nk song with some spade. No thanks
This may be one the laziest songs any band has ever written.
react to the new Demi Lovato's song, called 'substance'
Please…

have you literally not heard Chaos
