@@skizr4200 Idk if I tgink this is a topic that should have any realm of satire, its not funny in the slightest, there should never be light made of such dark topics if you ask me, thats in and of itself desensitizing
@@joelmiller2064 you could very well be right. None the less it will inevitably happen. Satire might've been the wrong word, but the closest I can think of. The intent isn't to be funny. The intent is shock value.
Infant annihilators whole shtick is to be as extreme as possible. They have even said that when they are writing lyrics if they don't feel physically sick writing them then they aren't doing a good job.
The song is about the catholic church's historical (and continual) sexual abuse and exploitation of children. Reductio ad absurdum is a valid response to human degeneracy. They're extreme for the sake of pure hedonism while calling it out. Fucking amusing. Can't deny pure skill though.
Weedisforloosers, you do or don’t like Dickie Allen (the vocalist)? As someone who enjoys extreme vocals (and can do them myself; I’ve taught myself with the help of various YT tutorials for about a year), Dickie is one of my favorite vocalists. His other band SCUMFUCK has new music coming out sometime this year, I caught one his twitch streams when he was tracking vocals for it and it sounds sick.
@Weedisforlosers Weedisforlosers lol its not just using disgusting imagery for satire. Its a joke on the whole death core genre. The lyrics are so disgusting, its incredibly heavy.
All about the chock effect baby.... It is like walking into a church and scream "nipple" from the top of your lounge and then just stand and watch how people react differently to the word it self. Then you will see what people asume and automatically connect inside their head. I shit you not, when I say that it exposes perverts.
I love how they as Christians actually listened to this and found redeeming qualities and didn't just immediately judge it as secular devil music. These are the modern Christians we need more of today end the stereotypical "judging Christians" that turn so many people away from the church and their values.
I’m christian and I listen to IA. Idc about the lyrics and I rarely bother to even look them up because literally all I care about is how it actually SOUNDS. Loads of people here fail to realise that people listen to IA for the music and not always for the shock factor of the lyrics😕
@@Immolator772 yeah that's true you get judgemental people everywhere regardless of race, gender, religion etc. so it's kinda annoying when people make sweeping statements u know
The word you're looking for is hyperbole. An extremely exaggerated description of child molestation by priests. It's SUPPOSED to be over the top disgusting, just as the actual act is.
"The Vatican revealed Tuesday that over the past decade, it has defrocked 848 priests who raped or molested children and sanctioned another 2,572 with lesser penalties, providing the first ever breakdown of how it handled the more than 3,400 cases of abuse reported to the Holy See since 2004." This piece was written in 2014. Painting Priests just right. That's just from 2004-2014. I'm curious about the numbers prior to that.
Yeah it isn't that message and in this song it would have been mostly appropriate and accurate but when they start blaspheming Jesus that's when it gets f***** up
Anecdotally I've heard it's been going on since the early 20th century, if some of the stories in the family are to be believed. Stories about brothers going off to the church to learn and coming back as different angry people. I wouldn't be surprised if it went on for centuries
The metal community will leave pastor Rob traumatized and the warnings before the videos is great. Whenever you start on extreme you have to brave yourself. Extreme metal is meant to push the boundaries, it’s meant to be offensive . That’s why to people who aren’t used to it it’s shocking But I been supporting these bands for years and one thing you always know It will be offensive.
@@redskull1424 i know dude i love bands like infant annihilator, canibal corpse, behemoth, waking the cadaver ect. im just saying i feel bad for Pastor Rob 😂
I have got to give a huge applause on this one. I never thought I would see someone as intense as Infant Annihilator in one of these reaction videos. 99.9% of people who do reaction videos would instantly write this off as completely horrible and would never be able to actually analyze the lyrics and try to understand WHAT the song was actually meant to convey. That is why I love this channel. Good job Pastor Rob.
Commented before the analysis: This is a surprisingly religious song. It's casting awareness on the priesthood and the elite and all their kinks. The really high ups. It's meant to be disturbing, because it's meant to suggest that this sort of thing happens.
I've often wondered if at some point in the past the catholic churches high up leadership was infiltrated by satanic cultists. Not only do they have all the pedo stuff, some of the art they've commissioned is very odd, look up the Paul Vl audience hall and the sculpture in the front.
@Weedisforlosers Weedisforlosers I changed the channel to watch Tom and Jerry because I don't like what is considered Grammy nominated anymore, what happened to all the good music we listened to in high-school. I say this and I'm only 23, I now understand how my parents felt when they heard the music I liked.
Atheist here..gotta say I am impressed at your openness and actually taking the time and effort to discern the true meanings and intentions behind the songs you listen to..despite wether or not your agree with the message, I feel as though you guys give the songs a fair chance. Mad respect! 🤘
I am absolutely blown away with how open minded and considerate the guy on the left is. He totally understands the artistic and shocking approach the band utilizes to bring awareness to the dark side of Catholicism. I wish more Christians had this type of awareness and logic. I am a lifelong atheist I can still appreciate this guy. Love everyone always.
I think you'd be surprised at how many christian people are actually like this. So many actually do have logical reason behind their beliefs. Not to take away the element of faith in the unknown. But those who are so vehemently against anything that is or can be used for good focus on extremists who have no sense of rationality so as to paint a broader picture that all people who say they subscribe to the same beliefs are extreme.
The second I saw Infant Annihilated, I clicked on. I knew this was gonna be a doozy Edit: 41 minutes later, I would’ve never thought I’d see a pastor be this mindful about infant annihilator song
@@austinsmith867 They absolutely are good extreme music, they just aren't serious. Lots of extreme music isn't. I don't think Dying Fetus want people to kill their mothers and rape their dogs. Being over the top and shocking is fun.
@@austinsmith867 i would have never liked this type of stuff a few years ago. It’s way too over the top to start out with. However after getting heavier and heavier, starting out with metalcore like Ice Nine Kills and I Prevail, then finding STP and Lorna shore, eventually you gotta try out IA. Its still insane at first but now i listen to this album and the battle of yaldabaoth driving to work every morning😂
I’m a Catholic missionary, and I’ve served in 4 different Latin American countries over the last decade. There are quite a few instances where we’ve run into paedophilia among priests, and not only is it disgusting, it’s pervasively vile. To take ones gift and responsibility and misuse and abuse it is horrifying and evil. It wrenches my heart to hear about it, and I pray for the souls of all those involved. Having said all that...there’s no way I can listen to a song like this on repeat 😂. Thanks for the interesting discussion though. More attention does need to be drawn to the issue, and IA certainly get it done, albeit in a disgustingly graphic way. God bless
Infant Annihilator es una banda que no se toma en serio y hace referencia a tales cosas disgustantes pero da que pensar, no hay que atacar a la banda, sólo a los perpetuadores de tales actos
I feel like it is both shock value and social commentary on the true evil behind anyone who uses their connection to their community through religion to brutalize and assault a child. Which has happened, a lot. I don't feel this band is promoting or condoning these actions. Very abrasive though for sure
Im sorry for my language, but my dudes you all have massive balls for this. Its respectable that you didnt already shit all over it but analyzed it and stayed with it. Well done sir!
EA my neighbor good morning, I just wanted to point out your contradictory statement not as a "gotcha" or anything like that but to tell you, your made in God's image therefore your life has value and even if you were a cripple and barely would able get out of the house and couldn't contribute to society in anyway, you matter coz God says you matter!
If you like his style definitely check out Cattle Decapitation's vocalist Travis Ryan! Dickie got a lot of inspiration from Travis' highs and gave his own twist to it. I recommend checking out Cattle Decapitation - Apex Blasphemy, that song has my personal favorite highs :).
Kudos to you sir, indeed. This is definitely more thought than I’ve ever gives to an Infant Annihilator song. Always impressed with your candor and demeanor. You do believers a great justice. God Bless you!
Yeah Vin went OFF on this one. Granted these guys did too, but they at least had a discussion. Vin and Sori, as much as I love em, really went in on it.
Dickie Allen (the vocalist) is an absolute sweet ass person ive been on his streams many times and followed his insta and hes very sweet and doesn't believe in what he writes
I struggled through the song listening along with you guys, It was hard to stomach for sure. But the whole conversation after makes it worth it! I made it to the end, and man I hope so many people stick around through it all and hear what has to be said after!
As a child raised Catholic turned agnostic, I absolutely love your channel. I saw nothing but judgment and hate growing up in a church that was all talk when it came to love and understanding. Frankly, my value system comes a great deal from Christianity and growing up learning those concepts, although I still have my reservations. I struggle with judging others on a daily basis after growing up in a "perfect" household, even though I'm aware that I'm wrong and light years away from being who I want to be as far as being a kind, decent, loving, and understanding individual. It's a daily struggle that I will never give up on. I enjoy listening to this band, even though I had to desensitize myself to the lyrics I could hear before I could actually enjoy the music. I reacted quite like you did Pastor Rob, feeling sick to my stomach. But you definitely can't deny the massive amount of talent each one of these guys has to make technical music like this. In my opinion, Dickie has to be the best vocalist in the genre. Anyways, I'm rambling. Great discussion, you made me think (and feel sick) a lot about abortion, and I just want to say I appreciate you guys. Much love.
You guys have a lot of courage to put something like this together...whether or not it’s parody, many people do hate Christ and Christians. I’m not Catholic but most are still God fearing people...For myself as a metal head, I do get torn on some lyrics as the Bible say to us be holy, set apart from the evil world. Great video and keep it up...God bless
Man you are very fortunate person to have your dad listening to music with you and sharing this good conversations and analyzing it with you. Not many had this opportunity, well not me
I listened to the whole thing and this was one of the most amazing episodes you have done so far! The fact the the song was so extreme opened up an amazing discussion between you and your son. I absolutely loved it!! I appreciated it so much I had to share the video to a Christian Bible study Discord server I am a part of, I hope they like it as much as I did.
I've listened to this song now and then just for the technicality and my love for deathcore vocals. Rob put it into a whole new perspective and that's what I love about this channel!
As someone who regularly listens to infant annihilator I'm glad y'all didn't just dismiss it as heresy the moment you saw the first line. Also I'd love to see a reaction to the song "Forced Gender Reassignment" by Cattle Decapitation
You guys are greatly needed out there to see things from every angle, to try to understand and encourage a deeper look. You have the courage necessary to do it. Thanks for this.
Do demolisher by slaughter to prevail! I think you guys would actually enjoy it a lot compared to this one. Edit: just finished the video. Very great points.
It's a horrible thing that needs to be described so that people can realize exactly what they are doing, before they take it as nothing more than a right to choose as a gender.
Rob definitely laid it down hard on this one. I believe the details he mentioned to us about abortions is more disturbing than the lyrics to the noise they were listening to.
Pushing boundaries just for sake of pushing boundaries accomplishes... what? If you think there's merit in that as a band, why not just go to the farthest shocking boundary you can fathom and then just do that and skip all the pushing? Plant your flag or whatever you think is out there for you and call it a day, why waste time pretending?
@@off6848 I have a feeling that some band has written songs like this but then got black listed by the music industry and so you can't find their songs anymore no matter how hard you try.
They are technically spreading awareness of terrible events that occurred or just show some of the true colors of humans. Great reaction. The ending always gets me.
@@konstant_ly lmao the movie is so fucked up but definitely watch it, if your down for shock value type shit. not sure where to find the movie sure its on the internet somewhere
there is a limit to things. like, that witch movie i tried watching, saw a man kidnap a baby to rape it. and as soon as it started implying it, I was like. NOPE. NOPE NOPE NOPE NOPE. sickening.
@@lenxbot777z5 Rich, poor, veteran, civilian, sometimes what happens in their lives is much worse than any horror movie or game can depict, or anyone's life for that matter.
It took me 6 years of listening to infant annihilator to realize that their songs and entire first album are about the horrors that occur within the catholic priesthood and arguably the papacy. In ONE SONG! You figured it out dad! Best explanation of the bands angle and intensions I've heard. I realized the bands intent to in a sense "Expose" the evils of the holy sea when I did a deep dive into the vaticans history as well as papal history.
I like how they sound, and as you said the lyrics are disturbing, but in many songs those lyrics are there to tell about something. As I understand their message, they wanted to show that many people who believe in God do despise or disrespect non-believers, and at the same time, sick and sometimes even deeply religious people do things much worse than what ordinary non-believers can imagine. That's why they took a prophet as an example "here is your prophet which you listened to, and look what he does now", so you believed the things he said was your truth ? What is your truth now ? In any case either you religious or not, you have to be aware of who you are and which state of mind you're in and which path are you going.
As soon as you started talking about abortion I wanted to just turn the video off for a number of reasons, but I'm glad I sat through it because I learned some things about abortion methods, especially late-term methods, i had never heard before, and have given me a very different perspective. Thank you, even though I'm sure it was difficult to discuss, for bringing up these topics which need to be talked about more, particularly in the context of the legality and ethics of abortion.
They didn't mention that in the case if late term abortion they're describing its either illegal or the baby isn't viable or the pregnancy has a high chance to kill the mother. All they said is "I can think of a reason why..." when there are tons of medical reasons why. Also only about 2% of abortions are late term abortions. They are open to discuss the song but this isn't really a discussion of abortion, it's a presentation. They're welcome to their opinions, but it's not the whole picture, by their own admittance
Watched the entire video. I am a lover of metal, but I was just as disgusted when I first heard it as y’all were. I appreciate the way you discussed this topic and it was very interesting to me. Thank you guys for good content!
This may have been the hardest video to ever sit through. It was terrible in unimaginable ways. But it needed to be said. You guys are great, and I love the discussions, even the really tough ones. Judging by the other comments, I think I'm the only person who sat through the entire video.
@@roberthoughton7127 I figured you sat through a song that I liked, so I would force myself to hear you describe in detail the abortion process. That song pales in comparison to reality and I thank you for taking the time to education some of us.
@@solomonkane7623 I better never catch you watching a movie where someone gets hurt in any way. What's there to like right? Such a braindead question lmao
Wow! It's been a while since I've seen your videos. This one is crazy from the song reaction choice and I wasn't sure if could finish it. I'm glad I stuck it out though. Love you guys!
Exactly, I know for a fact that the guys in Infant Annihilator don't expect people to take the lyrics seriously. They don't condone the lyrics, or are saying that people should do these things, but sometimes they do it to bring it to people's attention.
@@Heldevik exactly. I enjoy the absurd of the lyrics for how well they go with the absurd instrumentals. Both just go as hard and far as you possibly can. It's like some insane hilarious adrenaline rush.
Something I'm not seeing anyone point out, is that through the whole album and continued on Battle of Yaldaboath is that theres actually a story happening. Their telling a work of fiction that starts as just satan taking control over people and it eventually turns into something more akin to lord of the rings with all kinds of creatures and beings fighting.
I just want to echo what everyone else is saying that you are doing amazing work. I didn't think it was possible for someone to have a intellectual discussion over this song. I am not a Christian but you put your views in such a way that anyone can listen to and learn. You have converted a watcher to your channel.
Just watched to the end, and gotta say, I almost stopped watching the video because of the level of disgust I had listening to the song but when you started talking about the reasoning behind it and comparing it to abortion I broke down and cried. It is such a powerful reminder that we need to fight to end the evil that is being done against the unborn as well as the abuse of children.
You tried to find something redeemable in this, and had an honest and well thought out take on why you think this kind of song exists, and I enjoyed the reaction. I have some buddies down in Texas that are part of a pretty big metalcore band called Fit For a King. They are a Christian metalcore band and have lyrical content that you might identify with. Have you done any content on them? Cheers!
I'm not a religious person but I love your personal interest in music and your ability to be so open minded and the view you have into lyrics. I wanted to recommend the song "Second and Sebring" by Of Mice and Men. It's one of those songs that just sounds fast and loud and angry but if you take the time to read the lyrics while listening, I think this would be a song you and Gage would both enjoy. -Ryan.
This band is extremely talented and lyrically speaking are interesting and to a degree factual. The Catholic Church is pure disgust and as a former Christ follower this speaks volumes. Props for reacting to this. Keep up the good work. Take care.
@@Themintman_006 Correct. They worship Mary, the "Mother of Heaven" (if you look the crown is always on her head, not Jesus) who also represents Semiramis (The Moon) back from the Babylonian days.
@@vXAudioOutlawXv we don’t worship her in the canonical sense actually. We pray for intercession from Jesus through her. Big big difference 😂. Jesus is still the head of our faith. Don’t go around misleading people please. It’s very easy to misinterpret and then misinform. Also, us Catholics find the priests who commit those crimes to be disgusting. Just pointing that out so that no one thinks that the Catholic Church condones paedofilia.
This is such a level-headed, wise discussion that turned the tables on people who may have simply recommended this song to make you uncomfortable. You responded in truth! It was really inspiring to see that! Never change Rob and Gauge!
I could appreciate it more if you didn't seem to want revenge for the criticism of some religious figures. If both are wrong then both are wrong. No need to identify with those who do evil under the veil of piety. "Us and them"
This is probably the most diverse, deep, wowing analysis I’ve seen you guys do. Literally opens a hidden desensitized part of my brain. I didn’t think you’d make it through let alone discuss to the extent that you did And thanks for the insight on abortion It really is difficult to live in today knowing these things are happening right now and onwards everyday from now *speaking about abortion* I DID NOT EXPECT YOU TO SEE THAT DEEP INTO THE SONG. I caught myself saying wow out loud. I am currently waiting for some test results in my car at the hospital so I had the time 😂 there was a lot of extreme blur, noisy fuzz... grotesqueness to plow through to get to a quite imaginative, technical.. *im looking for the word* trying to avoid saying deep. I feel like the world isn’t black and white but this song and discussion showed that the grey side of the world can probably do more damage than the black and white I am not as devout as I was in Christianity a while back because of my own indifferences about church. It’s difficult because outside the churches, temples or mosques there really is no organization where you can feel like you belong and just want to praise God and thank God and be with God... but does it mean we have to accept all these things the church does? I digress Point is, I remember from my Christian times the verse in revelations about Jesus’s almost.. disgust of indifference And our desensitization has become seamless indifference That scares me so much cause I know there are many things I am desensitized to, especially because I am not as devout as I used to be Sorry about the long review, I am just paying you back 😆 Kidding... this topic really brought out a lot of thoughts Wish there was a way I could discuss with you guys more about this and hear if my thoughts make sense I make music a lot about dark things but not really meant for shock value, mostly talking about emotions because really.. the issue is people can’t deal with the emotions that situations bring so they try to end the situation either by destroying the situation or supplementing inducement with something else causing “the Grey” I was talking about In conclusion I’d really like to thank you guys for doing what you do again I think this is one of the most useful RUclips channels I have come across I watch a lot of stuff for enjoyment But not a lot channels really threaten the bases of my thinking and help me learn So thanks so much for that And if you have time Let me know what you think of my thoughts and if there is a way to discuss somehow God bless
This entire song was to bring awareness to the culture of rape in the church and the justifying of pregnancy regardless of the rape victims wishes. Even as young as young. Its sick but that is exactly their intention for this song.
@@roberthoughton7127 thank you for pointing out the hypocrisy. While some "priests" are vile creeps, the world praises the ability to kill children on demand as long as they are still inside the mother. Keep taking advantage of the trolls suggestions and turning them into lessons! This world needs it
Didn't know if I would be able to sit through this one. The abortion descriptions were tough, as they should be, but the interpretation of the song and finding the silver lining and redeeming points is refreshing as usual.
I am really glad you guys actually tackled this song with respect and didn't just write it off and go "I don't want to talk about this" and move one. Whenever I watch your videos I always come out of them learning something new, whether it be about your beliefs and religion or about things that are happening in the world around us, and that is one of the things I like most about the reactions you guys do. You take on the hard questions and use them to educate people rather than dismiss the topic altogether. You guys did an outstanding job. Keep up the great work.
Man, I am totally on the opposite side of religious faith (agnostic) but your takes on the lyrical content of this (and other songs) are fantastic. I think you are spot on and it’s pretty amazing that you were able to find that redeeming quality.
This is the heaviest reaction video you have so far, heavy as IA's song, yet it's very enlightening. This is an eye-opener, or should I say "eye-reopener". You guys did a great job!
I was raised Catholic. My mom's side was very Catholic, while my dad's side was protestant. And I had some close friends who were Jewish. Now I would say I am Agnostic with some Christian beliefs. This is a VERY amazing video because you break it down reality wise then religiously. Thank you so much for this channel
I watched literally 2 minutes of this video knowing nothing about the band...and already knew it was the most uncomfortable and potentially most interesting video on RUclips. Here's hoping you and your son can help me see the light in the last 40 minutes Pastor Rob! Edit: 27:54 and I think I may be more scarred than from the song Edit: 29:44 throwing up.
Growing up Christian, and still being one, I found myself kind of hesitant to get into the deathcore genre let along IA because I thought it would be “bad”. But music has been an outlet for me in so many in my life I kind of just found myself wandering into it and eventually decided to listen to some IA after I felt I got my feet wet enough. Now I listen to it on the regular not so much for the lyrics but for the sheer vocal skills Dickie has. Also really glad to hear this opinion from a pastor who’s not so closed minded he couldn’t see the larger picture they were trying to paint. Awesome video!
@@GreatOldOne9866 exactly. I respect the talent. I just prefer to keep myself away from songs with lyrics I dont feel comfortable desensitizing myself too. Wouldnt wanna be caught singing this and have to explain myself😂
The first time I heard Infant Annihilatior, it was physically painful for me too. 😂 I really expected you to get a lot more backlash for what you said in this video.
Oh Lord, this is gonna be a bad one for Pastor Rob. Also the longest video they have ever made so this is gonna be interesting.
Keep in mind that this specific niche of death mesh is designed to be satire in a way. Think up the most depraved thing you can imagine, combine brutal blast beat on top of blast beats and then you have bands like this.
And I like to imagine that theres a context in the lyrics like the point of view of a religious community that commits those atrocities

Thank you 🙏
That's what I love about this channel, Pastor Rob looks past the sound of the music and does his best to find the deep meaning.

@Obi-Wan Jabroni It's in my top five worst ever for sure.
@Obi-Wan Jabroni I am with you there man and I listened to Nickelback
Commented before the analysis: This is a surprisingly religious song. It's casting awareness on the priesthood and the elite and all their kinks. The really high ups. It's meant to be disturbing, because it's meant to suggest that this sort of thing happens.
Very interesting take... I didn’t get that from the song but now that you mentioned it I can see how you get that from it
@@brandonshackelford4590 thats what the band says the song is about also, hyperbolizing abortion
Yea I’ve just gotten into there music but that makes sense
I've often wondered if at some point in the past the catholic churches high up leadership was infiltrated by satanic cultists. Not only do they have all the pedo stuff, some of the art they've commissioned is very odd, look up the Paul Vl audience hall and the sculpture in the front.
These kind of fucked up things actually happens
Robs face the whole video is me watching the grammys last night
I read about that. Crazy times when WAP is a hit, yet others are being canceled for a single word out od context.
hahaha
@Weedisforlosers Weedisforlosers I changed the channel to watch Tom and Jerry because I don't like what is considered Grammy nominated anymore, what happened to all the good music we listened to in high-school. I say this and I'm only 23, I now understand how my parents felt when they heard the music I liked.
@Daren Davis....man...the look on his face has to become a meme
Atheist here..gotta say I am impressed at your openness and actually taking the time and effort to discern the true meanings and intentions behind the songs you listen to..despite wether or not your agree with the message, I feel as though you guys give the songs a fair chance. Mad respect! 🤘
Thank you. 🙏
I too am an atheist but I've enjoyed these two's videos for a couple years now
I am also an atheist and agree - the analysis was excellent
If you guys gave this a chance you are worthy of my respect
I am a satanist and I agree with Nathan R.
I am absolutely blown away with how open minded and considerate the guy on the left is. He totally understands the artistic and shocking approach the band utilizes to bring awareness to the dark side of Catholicism. I wish more Christians had this type of awareness and logic. I am a lifelong atheist I can still appreciate this guy. Love everyone always.
I think you'd be surprised at how many christian people are actually like this. So many actually do have logical reason behind their beliefs. Not to take away the element of faith in the unknown. But those who are so vehemently against anything that is or can be used for good focus on extremists who have no sense of rationality so as to paint a broader picture that all people who say they subscribe to the same beliefs are extreme.
The second I saw Infant Annihilated, I clicked on. I knew this was gonna be a doozy
Edit: 41 minutes later, I would’ve never thought I’d see a pastor be this mindful about infant annihilator song
Also please don’t let this song discourage you guys for listening to more extreme metal
Right? I love deathcore and deathmetal but Infant Annihilator is not a good example of good extreme music lol
@@austinsmith867 IA is awesome, one of the few deathcore bands I can listen to. 97 percent of them are shitty anyways
@@austinsmith867 They absolutely are good extreme music, they just aren't serious. Lots of extreme music isn't. I don't think Dying Fetus want people to kill their mothers and rape their dogs. Being over the top and shocking is fun.
@@austinsmith867 i would have never liked this type of stuff a few years ago. It’s way too over the top to start out with. However after getting heavier and heavier, starting out with metalcore like Ice Nine Kills and I Prevail, then finding STP and Lorna shore, eventually you gotta try out IA. Its still insane at first but now i listen to this album and the battle of yaldabaoth driving to work every morning😂
Extreme metal is fine IA is garbage.
I’m a Catholic missionary, and I’ve served in 4 different Latin American countries over the last decade. There are quite a few instances where we’ve run into paedophilia among priests, and not only is it disgusting, it’s pervasively vile. To take ones gift and responsibility and misuse and abuse it is horrifying and evil. It wrenches my heart to hear about it, and I pray for the souls of all those involved. Having said all that...there’s no way I can listen to a song like this on repeat 😂. Thanks for the interesting discussion though. More attention does need to be drawn to the issue, and IA certainly get it done, albeit in a disgustingly graphic way. God bless
La pedofilia lamentablemente es algo muy común en lugares considerados "buenos", es jodidamente desagradable pero es algo que se debe de saber. :/
Infant Annihilator es una banda que no se toma en serio y hace referencia a tales cosas disgustantes pero da que pensar, no hay que atacar a la banda, sólo a los perpetuadores de tales actos
I feel like it is both shock value and social commentary on the true evil behind anyone who uses their connection to their community through religion to brutalize and assault a child. Which has happened, a lot. I don't feel this band is promoting or condoning these actions. Very abrasive though for sure
Lol catholic missionary xD
Maybe stop handing kids over to priests?
Im sorry for my language, but my dudes you all have massive balls for this. Its respectable that you didnt already shit all over it but analyzed it and stayed with it. Well done sir!
I feel like you know it’s bad if GAGE is the one stopping the song. 😂
That was the most I’ve seen him come alive.

Yea I was shocked lol was pretty cool though.
I thought the same thing!
I don’t believe in a god, but I can say for certain; this man is a man of god.
Agreed completely lmao
Summed up my thoughts exactly.
considering the song they reached to I can't tell if you mean that in a good or bad way lol
@@liam6653 lmao, i meant that in a good way. As in he seems to represent those values and virtues that he preaches about.
EA my neighbor good morning, I just wanted to point out your contradictory statement not as a "gotcha" or anything like that but to tell you, your made in God's image therefore your life has value and even if you were a cripple and barely would able get out of the house and couldn't contribute to society in anyway, you matter coz God says you matter!
Dickie Allen is a man of intense vocal talent. He is renowned for his goblin vocals. He does something no one can.
Him and Alex Terrible are gnarly vocalists. I love Dickie Allen's gremlin vocals and Alex's demonic vocals
If you like his style definitely check out Cattle Decapitation's vocalist Travis Ryan! Dickie got a lot of inspiration from Travis' highs and gave his own twist to it. I recommend checking out Cattle Decapitation - Apex Blasphemy, that song has my personal favorite highs :).

Kudos to you sir, indeed. This is definitely more thought than I’ve ever gives to an Infant Annihilator song.
Always impressed with your candor and demeanor. You do believers a great justice. God Bless you!
Infant Annihilator is extremely satirical but they’re so good at what they do at the same time it’s actually insane
I would really like to see an Art Of Dying by Gojira here. 😀
Gojira lyrics are pretty awesome, I think Rob would find something to discuss
For a moment, I thought you mixed the bands "Thy Art is Murder" and "As I Lay Dying", but then I realized "Art of Dying" is a song by Gorijia.
best breakdown
Absolutely!
Absolutely that video needs to happen!
These guys look like they can take a joke unlike Vin and Sori lol. I'd happily listen to these guys go all biblical about a trolling song for 40min
Mostly vin
@@criticalfailure92 that whole relationship seems yikes lmao. they don't really hide it either, if she misspeaks, hooh boy.
Regardless I do enjoy vin and soris takes. Though I've really only listened to a few things so I dont know much about their relationship
Yeah Vin went OFF on this one. Granted these guys did too, but they at least had a discussion. Vin and Sori, as much as I love em, really went in on it.
Dickie said that he just wants to write really grotesque horror lyrics... yeah, he got it 😂😂
Ah, hello friend lmao
Dickie NAILS it, every single time.
Yeah, he literally said he writes horror music.
Dickie Allen (the vocalist) is an absolute sweet ass person ive been on his streams many times and followed his insta and hes very sweet and doesn't believe in what he writes
+1 man got to agree with that if we do not consider the religious views man's a kind person used to watch his warzone stream on twitch 🔥
COME BACK TO THE STREAMS
Pastor looks like “forgive them Lord for they not know what they sound like” lol 😂
I struggled through the song listening along with you guys, It was hard to stomach for sure. But the whole conversation after makes it worth it! I made it to the end, and man I hope so many people stick around through it all and hear what has to be said after!
As a child raised Catholic turned agnostic, I absolutely love your channel. I saw nothing but judgment and hate growing up in a church that was all talk when it came to love and understanding. Frankly, my value system comes a great deal from Christianity and growing up learning those concepts, although I still have my reservations. I struggle with judging others on a daily basis after growing up in a "perfect" household, even though I'm aware that I'm wrong and light years away from being who I want to be as far as being a kind, decent, loving, and understanding individual. It's a daily struggle that I will never give up on. I enjoy listening to this band, even though I had to desensitize myself to the lyrics I could hear before I could actually enjoy the music. I reacted quite like you did Pastor Rob, feeling sick to my stomach. But you definitely can't deny the massive amount of talent each one of these guys has to make technical music like this. In my opinion, Dickie has to be the best vocalist in the genre. Anyways, I'm rambling. Great discussion, you made me think (and feel sick) a lot about abortion, and I just want to say I appreciate you guys. Much love.
You guys have a lot of courage to put something like this together...whether or not it’s parody, many people do hate Christ and Christians. I’m not Catholic but most are still God fearing people...For myself as a metal head, I do get torn on some lyrics as the Bible say to us be holy, set apart from the evil world. Great video and keep it up...God bless
Opeth!! Phenomenal band
Man you are very fortunate person to have your dad listening to music with you and sharing this good conversations and analyzing it with you. Not many had this opportunity, well not me
DEFINITELY not mine! All i got was "this is the devil's music and you need to get rid of those CDs!" 🤣🤣🤣
you hit the nail on the head when you said comedic, thats exactly what it is
Righteous rage and the look of shock on that kid's face, feels like a replay of a thousand conversations I have had before
I listened to the whole thing and this was one of the most amazing episodes you have done so far! The fact the the song was so extreme opened up an amazing discussion between you and your son. I absolutely loved it!! I appreciated it so much I had to share the video to a Christian Bible study Discord server I am a part of, I hope they like it as much as I did.
I've listened to this song now and then just for the technicality and my love for deathcore vocals. Rob put it into a whole new perspective and that's what I love about this channel!
Check out mental cruelty
As someone who regularly listens to infant annihilator I'm glad y'all didn't just dismiss it as heresy the moment you saw the first line. Also I'd love to see a reaction to the song "Forced Gender Reassignment" by Cattle Decapitation
Oh gosh, no, lol
I just listened to this song and was suprised of how supportive not only the song was, but the music was as well (in a sense). Really good song !
That song sounds lit, but infant annihilator is pretty dumb
@@Spoonless_Josh supportive to what 😂 if it’s a edgy song supporting that agenda they are even worse than infant annihilator
@@deadbodybaby1 girl what
You guys are greatly needed out there to see things from every angle, to try to understand and encourage a deeper look. You have the courage necessary to do it. Thanks for this.
Do demolisher by slaughter to prevail! I think you guys would actually enjoy it a lot compared to this one.
Edit: just finished the video. Very great points.
I think they've done that one but I'm not sure.
@@twentyfourtythree1190 I've searched for it but couldn't find it, if they did and you find a link put it here please!
@ThePhoenixNate_ I agree. I am very interested to see their opinions on that song
Infant Annihilator: we’re brutal
Pastor Rob: 26:30...hold my milk
It's a horrible thing that needs to be described so that people can realize exactly what they are doing, before they take it as nothing more than a right to choose as a gender.
Rob definitely laid it down hard on this one. I believe the details he mentioned to us about abortions is more disturbing than the lyrics to the noise they were listening to.
It is for the shock value, they push the boundaries that other bands are afraid to do.
They're just fucking edgelords.
Pushing boundaries just for sake of pushing boundaries accomplishes... what? If you think there's merit in that as a band, why not just go to the farthest shocking boundary you can fathom and then just do that and skip all the pushing? Plant your flag or whatever you think is out there for you and call it a day, why waste time pretending?
@@Trepanation21 Controversy sells. Why do you think the media in the early 2000s covered stories about Paris Hilton?
They def aren’t pushing boundaries let’s be real
If they made anti Semitic and anti LGTBQ stuff on this level then maybe yeah
@@off6848 I have a feeling that some band has written songs like this but then got black listed by the music industry and so you can't find their songs anymore no matter how hard you try.
Great explanation. Also love your reference to the millstone verse around 18:00. I actually did put that in my song “The Abuser”!
Hes not wrong, rings of Saturn is awesome
Rob also isn't wrong- it's not a glorification at all- its def hyperbole, but it is that disgusting
They are technically spreading awareness of terrible events that occurred or just show some of the true colors of humans. Great reaction. The ending always gets me.
i feel like the song has references to serbian film as well
@@Swahps Hmm? You've piqued my Serbian interest 👀
@@konstant_ly lmao the movie is so fucked up but definitely watch it, if your down for shock value type shit. not sure where to find the movie sure its on the internet somewhere
@@Swahps I would, but you didn't say the name

I love bands that make music for shock value, to me it is no different than watching a horror movie or playing a horror game.
there is a limit to things. like, that witch movie i tried watching, saw a man kidnap a baby to rape it. and as soon as it started implying it, I was like. NOPE. NOPE NOPE NOPE NOPE.
sickening.
Agreed, you just can’t take this stuff seriously, as the artists themselves don’t
The reality is..this horror realy happens out there in all walks of life
@@codcade exactly, it's all shock value and just trying to make the heaviest music possible.
@@lenxbot777z5 Rich, poor, veteran, civilian, sometimes what happens in their lives is much worse than any horror movie or game can depict, or anyone's life for that matter.
It took me 6 years of listening to infant annihilator to realize that their songs and entire first album are about the horrors that occur within the catholic priesthood and arguably the papacy. In ONE SONG! You figured it out dad! Best explanation of the bands angle and intensions I've heard. I realized the bands intent to in a sense "Expose" the evils of the holy sea when I did a deep dive into the vaticans history as well as papal history.
I like how they sound, and as you said the lyrics are disturbing, but in many songs those lyrics are there to tell about something. As I understand their message, they wanted to show that many people who believe in God do despise or disrespect non-believers, and at the same time, sick and sometimes even deeply religious people do things much worse than what ordinary non-believers can imagine. That's why they took a prophet as an example "here is your prophet which you listened to, and look what he does now", so you believed the things he said was your truth ? What is your truth now ? In any case either you religious or not, you have to be aware of who you are and which state of mind you're in and which path are you going.
It would be interesting to see their reaction to Korn’s song; Daddy
Here you go! Korn Daddy Reaction ruclips.net/video/bcTwYMVW4cs/видео.html
As soon as you started talking about abortion I wanted to just turn the video off for a number of reasons, but I'm glad I sat through it because I learned some things about abortion methods, especially late-term methods, i had never heard before, and have given me a very different perspective. Thank you, even though I'm sure it was difficult to discuss, for bringing up these topics which need to be talked about more, particularly in the context of the legality and ethics of abortion.
They didn't mention that in the case if late term abortion they're describing its either illegal or the baby isn't viable or the pregnancy has a high chance to kill the mother. All they said is "I can think of a reason why..." when there are tons of medical reasons why. Also only about 2% of abortions are late term abortions. They are open to discuss the song but this isn't really a discussion of abortion, it's a presentation. They're welcome to their opinions, but it's not the whole picture, by their own admittance
Watched the entire video. I am a lover of metal, but I was just as disgusted when I first heard it as y’all were. I appreciate the way you discussed this topic and it was very interesting to me. Thank you guys for good content!
This may have been the hardest video to ever sit through. It was terrible in unimaginable ways. But it needed to be said. You guys are great, and I love the discussions, even the really tough ones.
Judging by the other comments, I think I'm the only person who sat through the entire video.
Thank you for taking the time out to sit through the whole thing. 🙏🙏
@@roberthoughton7127 I figured you sat through a song that I liked, so I would force myself to hear you describe in detail the abortion process. That song pales in comparison to reality and I thank you for taking the time to education some of us.

Thank you you for checking back in with us. 🙏
I like Infant Annihilators music and I love watching ppl react to them and y’all have the best explanation to this songs lyrics IMO!
Just keep in mind, most people just like the sound not the lyrics
Exactly, I know for a fact that the guys in Infant Annihilator don't expect people to take the lyrics seriously. They don't condone the lyrics, or are saying that people should do these things, but sometimes they do it to bring it to people's attention.
Some people likes the music AND the lyrics because it!’s stupid! It is to trigger look past!
i like the lyrics
@@Heldevik exactly. I enjoy the absurd of the lyrics for how well they go with the absurd instrumentals. Both just go as hard and far as you possibly can. It's like some insane hilarious adrenaline rush.
@@yaldabaoth7075 lol, you said it perfectly
Something I'm not seeing anyone point out, is that through the whole album and continued on Battle of Yaldaboath is that theres actually a story happening.
Their telling a work of fiction that starts as just satan taking control over people and it eventually turns into something more akin to lord of the rings with all kinds of creatures and beings fighting.
Sorry for this one. Have you guys done the "forced gender reassignment" video by cattle decapitation yet?
I just want to echo what everyone else is saying that you are doing amazing work. I didn't think it was possible for someone to have a intellectual discussion over this song. I am not a Christian but you put your views in such a way that anyone can listen to and learn. You have converted a watcher to your channel.
Here's a request: Beauty in Tragedy by August Burns Red ♥
YESSSS
Yes!!!
Love ABR
yeaah! ABR is something else ♥
Once I saw the title. Im like oh nooo Pastor Rob what is you doing 😭😭😭
Just watched to the end, and gotta say, I almost stopped watching the video because of the level of disgust I had listening to the song but when you started talking about the reasoning behind it and comparing it to abortion I broke down and cried. It is such a powerful reminder that we need to fight to end the evil that is being done against the unborn as well as the abuse of children.
You tried to find something redeemable in this, and had an honest and well thought out take on why you think this kind of song exists, and I enjoyed the reaction. I have some buddies down in Texas that are part of a pretty big metalcore band called Fit For a King. They are a Christian metalcore band and have lyrical content that you might identify with. Have you done any content on them? Cheers!
Dude that's cool! I really like their songs
saw fit for a king live. pretty cool man
Leaving a comment letting you know I watched the whole thing :)
Thank you, guys! I really love listening to your videos
I'm not a religious person but I love your personal interest in music and your ability to be so open minded and the view you have into lyrics. I wanted to recommend the song "Second and Sebring" by Of Mice and Men. It's one of those songs that just sounds fast and loud and angry but if you take the time to read the lyrics while listening, I think this would be a song you and Gage would both enjoy.
-Ryan.
This band is extremely talented and lyrically speaking are interesting and to a degree factual.
The Catholic Church is pure disgust and as a former Christ follower this speaks volumes. Props for reacting to this. Keep up the good work. Take care.

@@Themintman_006 Correct. They worship Mary, the "Mother of Heaven" (if you look the crown is always on her head, not Jesus) who also represents Semiramis (The Moon) back from the Babylonian days.
@@vXAudioOutlawXv we don’t worship her in the canonical sense actually. We pray for intercession from Jesus through her. Big big difference 😂. Jesus is still the head of our faith.

Just pointing that out so that no one thinks that the Catholic Church condones paedofilia.
this is actually my grandmas favorite Hymn
This is such a level-headed, wise discussion that turned the tables on people who may have simply recommended this song to make you uncomfortable. You responded in truth! It was really inspiring to see that! Never change Rob and Gauge!
I could appreciate it more if you didn't seem to want revenge for the criticism of some religious figures. If both are wrong then both are wrong. No need to identify with those who do evil under the veil of piety. "Us and them"
@@kellyrankin8844 What? 😅 lost me halfway through buddy, but good on you for speaking your mind!
Dude you have a good brain lmao i love how you actually break these things down and talk about the songs you react to
All I saw was the title and I knew...
This is probably the most diverse, deep, wowing analysis I’ve seen you guys do. Literally opens a hidden desensitized part of my brain. I didn’t think you’d make it through let alone discuss to the extent that you did
And thanks for the insight on abortion
It really is difficult to live in today knowing these things are happening right now and onwards everyday from now *speaking about abortion*
I DID NOT EXPECT YOU TO SEE THAT DEEP INTO THE SONG. I caught myself saying wow out loud. I am currently waiting for some test results in my car at the hospital so I had the time 😂
there was a lot of extreme blur, noisy fuzz... grotesqueness to plow through to get to a quite imaginative, technical.. *im looking for the word* trying to avoid saying deep.
I feel like the world isn’t black and white but this song and discussion showed that the grey side of the world can probably do more damage than the black and white
I am not as devout as I was in Christianity a while back because of my own indifferences about church. It’s difficult because outside the churches, temples or mosques there really is no organization where you can feel like you belong and just want to praise God and thank God and be with God... but does it mean we have to accept all these things the church does?
I digress
Point is, I remember from my Christian times the verse in revelations about Jesus’s almost.. disgust of indifference
And our desensitization has become seamless indifference
That scares me so much cause I know there are many things I am desensitized to, especially because I am not as devout as I used to be
Sorry about the long review, I am just paying you back 😆
Kidding...
this topic really brought out a lot of thoughts
Wish there was a way I could discuss with you guys more about this and hear if my thoughts make sense
I make music a lot about dark things but not really meant for shock value, mostly talking about emotions because really.. the issue is people can’t deal with the emotions that situations bring so they try to end the situation either by destroying the situation or supplementing inducement with something else causing “the Grey” I was talking about
In conclusion
I’d really like to thank you guys for doing what you do again
I think this is one of the most useful RUclips channels I have come across
I watch a lot of stuff for enjoyment
But not a lot channels really threaten the bases of my thinking and help me learn
So thanks so much for that
And if you have time
Let me know what you think of my thoughts and if there is a way to discuss somehow
God bless
Oh my, seeing you react to this feels like finding your 4 year old watching a horror movie in TV
This entire song was to bring awareness to the culture of rape in the church and the justifying of pregnancy regardless of the rape victims wishes. Even as young as young. Its sick but that is exactly their intention for this song.
God is raping the child. That's what is happening behind the character of the lyrics
Not just catholic. But it also includes that massive amount of it that happened throughout all prominent religions.

Didn't know if I would be able to sit through this one. The abortion descriptions were tough, as they should be, but the interpretation of the song and finding the silver lining and redeeming points is refreshing as usual.
It is not just the Catholic church. It happens in all churches.
They are a parody of deathcore, and the lyrics are meant to be tongue in cheek/a critique of the Catholic Church.
They do actually do that well, satirizing the church in this song
If that is the case then in my opinion Brojob is better at Parodycore
Yet a bit over the top but is that not the point
They suck
@@andrewnelson5224 whether they do are not doesn’t matter, I’m neutral
I am really glad you guys actually tackled this song with respect and didn't just write it off and go "I don't want to talk about this" and move one. Whenever I watch your videos I always come out of them learning something new, whether it be about your beliefs and religion or about things that are happening in the world around us, and that is one of the things I like most about the reactions you guys do. You take on the hard questions and use them to educate people rather than dismiss the topic altogether. You guys did an outstanding job. Keep up the great work.
Dad's face looked like mine the first time I tasted tequila. 😆
Man, I am totally on the opposite side of religious faith (agnostic) but your takes on the lyrical content of this (and other songs) are fantastic. I think you are spot on and it’s pretty amazing that you were able to find that redeeming quality.
This is the heaviest reaction video you have so far, heavy as IA's song, yet it's very enlightening. This is an eye-opener, or should I say "eye-reopener". You guys did a great job!
I was raised Catholic. My mom's side was very Catholic, while my dad's side was protestant. And I had some close friends who were Jewish. Now I would say I am Agnostic with some Christian beliefs. This is a VERY amazing video because you break it down reality wise then religiously. Thank you so much for this channel
I watched literally 2 minutes of this video knowing nothing about the band...and already knew it was the most uncomfortable and potentially most interesting video on RUclips. Here's hoping you and your son can help me see the light in the last 40 minutes Pastor Rob!
Edit: 27:54 and I think I may be more scarred than from the song
Edit: 29:44 throwing up.
Pastor Rob: tasteless planned parenthood joke
Infant Annihilator: instant karma
Way to be a light in a dark world. God bless you and your family.
Growing up Christian, and still being one, I found myself kind of hesitant to get into the deathcore genre let along IA because I thought it would be “bad”. But music has been an outlet for me in so many in my life I kind of just found myself wandering into it and eventually decided to listen to some IA after I felt I got my feet wet enough. Now I listen to it on the regular not so much for the lyrics but for the sheer vocal skills Dickie has. Also really glad to hear this opinion from a pastor who’s not so closed minded he couldn’t see the larger picture they were trying to paint. Awesome video!

interesting you mentioned abortion because there is a song on this album about abortion, called neutered in utero
this song ruined my innocence...
Y’all are amazing for being able to sit through that I love death metal but that pushes the limits
Infant Annihlator is very close to the edge of grindcore IMHO
@@ticklord yeah it’s not traditional death what I meant to say was extreme metal
while we're on the topic slayer's silent scream is relevant to this specific lyrical content
The first time I heard Infant Annihilatior, it was physically painful for me too. 😂 I really expected you to get a lot more backlash for what you said in this video.
This channel is a blessing! Thank you for doing what you do!
That was actually the best explanation anybody ever gave about their lyrics. "They shock you into reality" is so on point.
I love watching you guys. I suggest checking out "The Stage" by Avenged Sevenfold. Not very intense but it paints an interesting picture of the world.
