nothing with humor but with requests 😉 you may have watched a lot of metal stuff in the past so you have been categorized. we all get jon schaffer stuff now 😂
funny how the metal community used to be against the establishment and all of the sudden they’re becoming government loyalists for no good reason at all.
I don’t agree with everything Jon says, but that’s ok we don’t have too. However it will be a cold day in hell when I side with the fucking government over a metal musician.
@@etopr4986 yes, that’s exactly why there were people breaking windows and doors as well as the assaults on officers. Everyone knows that is how you thank someone when they open the door for you
Hmmm... I wonder why the RUclips algorithm suggested this video to me🤔??? Lmao, no joke iced earth was the first metal band that I found myself fans fell in love with, no matter what they do I’ll always love the music these dudes create
I met Jon a couple years ago. Wicked nice dude. I still wish I had my Iced Earth poster but I sold it to some guy in Mexico. At least I still have a picture with him.
Hi Jon ! :) And thanks a lot, again, for the album ! I think it can become a classic over time ! And Black Flag is up there among the best of the best of Iced Earth... Raven Wing is too, btw. :)
I always chuckle when people in bands wear their own merch. I also chuckle thinking back to stories from other musicians being scoffed at by him for smoking weed and not having any coke.
When I read "The Black Book of Communism", it said the exact same thing. Communists may seem really cool and friendly on the surface, but just wait until they put their ideology in practice. Schaffer is the far-right version of these people.
I read an old interview where Schaffer said he's against both the left and the right. In that case, he should have supported the centrist candidate; Joe Biden. But of course he's an idiot.
@Magnagar Biden is indeed a centrist. He wants unity, including with Republicans, including pro-Trump Republicans. He never scolds anyone. He said stuff about Chinese authoritarianism idiots took completely out of context. What he really meant is that the cultures are different, and it needs to change with the US on the forefront of human rights. I'm glad he's now the president of the free world.
had they released their debut 4-5 years earlier they might have been. Metallica came in the right time when thrash metal was at its peak while Iced Earth arrived in the 90s when alt.rock/grunge were the "thing"
Pantherex 1 yeah I agree I really don’t think they get the recognition that they deserve, they make some of the best music out there along the greats like Iron Maiden in my opinion.
Metallica is still decent atleast but Iced Earth blows them away now. That said, I don't wish for Iced Earth to be on the radio every single day because their awesome musicianship and song writing would be watered down to fit the taste of the masses.
All the bands and albums that influenced Jon are phenomenal. That is why Iced Earth turned out to be such an amazing band because of all Jon's influences. With all these great influences, Jon created a very special band and put his own unique sound. Iced Earth in my opinion is the most consistent band when it comes to putting out excellent albums. In my opinion all their albums have songs that are all mostly killer, with very little filler. Iced Earth is the last band that I can think of that had a huge major impact on me. I first listened to them back in 1996 when I got their second studio album Night Of The Stormrider at 17 years old , and I have been a huge massive fan of theirs ever since. Jon Schaffer in my opinion is just as amazing at songwriting as other legends like Steve Harris, Tony Iommi, Geezer Butler, Dave Mustaine, Rob Halford, Glenn Tipton, KK Downing, Kai Hansen, James Hetfield, Ronnie James Dio, Ritchie Blackmore, and many other amazing Songwriters. Jon Schaffer in my opinion is also the greatest rhythm guitar player ever. His rhythm guitar playing is just insanely amazing.
Quite the fabricator... in his interviews. He’s a conspiracy Loser-his band has even quit him, maybe he can sing jingles for Alex Jones on infowars lol
Love Jon Schaffer. He is a legend and most certainly has not got the credit he so very rightly deserves. His music over the years has really graced my stereo so many times.
I will 3rd that! Iced fuckin earth!!! Demons & wizards. Schaffer is a genius. The first Demons & Wizards album is equal to anything ever fuckin made. I'll take that to the grave. Keep doing your thing Jon.
Watching a proper heavy metal fan handle vinyl is amazing sight, cd's mp3 just don't cut it for me. Don't get me wrong own mountains of cd's and mp3s but grew up with vinyl, so many memories just love his choices
Ya he is a pretty chill dude. He's right about a lot of things. He made a bad irrational move and now the band suffers. Demons and Wizards are broken. It's truly a sad situation.
It came both from Europe and America, they both influenced me for example but for me the ones who most influenced me came from Europe,mainly UK and Germany like you said.
This chapp has so enormous humility and humanity, that I one's more being thankfull on being a one more fan of the list . Hope that finally the pear Schaeffer / Barlow join forces again and give to the world what it deserves , the pure heavy metal rock n roll of all times .

Jon Schaffer did nothing wrong, sit and spin if you don't like it. “I hold it that a little rebellion now and then is a good thing, and as necessary in the political world as storms in the physical.” - Thomas Jefferson
@@tims4502 You mean took a plea deal, to two charges that have nothing to with insurrection? Because they couldn't make the other four stick, so he got trespassing and being armed at the capitol with bear mace. So you're smooth brain observation is right, but not for the reason you think it is. Oh, and he was allowed to walk with no travel restrictions until sentencing. Meaning he'll probably do less then 2 years with time served. But keep up with that violent insurrectionist bit moron.
2003, I was 13 years old, the internet was brand new...or at least we didn't have the internet at my house at the time haha. A little different, but I remember liking Metallica...some kids liked punk music, or Disturbed or Limp Bizkit...things that were on the radio. I was searching for guitar tabs, and I'll always remember the first time I heard ICED EARTH. Those fucking triplets...Full circle, man. I know you won't see this comment, but just my 2 cents.
David Goshorn only one good song in but musically glorious burden is weak, not belong bests albums, the reckoning is only good song, framing armageddon is even that worst, two first albums are bests, my opinion.
John is such a legend! I´m a guitar player and i also prefer the rhythm style. John is my inspiration on that, along with Paul Stanley from Kiss. Rock on!
People aren't just one thing. Your friends, your neighbors, they believe things you probably hate and will never know. And a mistake doesn't negate years of art.
@@tims4502 oh so its cool when BLM does it for years but patriots get sick of the elites shit and suddenly im suppose to be sad that Jon stood up for himself and his fellow Americans? Get fucked
I love hearing this man talk - I mean it's freaking Jon Schaffer the guy written two concepts album that our just sooooo out there but still kicks so much ass (framing armageddon and crucible of man)
From the reactions, you'd think Jon raped somebody, as opposed to entering a government building (that had been opened to him by the D.C. Police) and yelling and pointing a deadly finger at them. I appreciate that Jon at least had the balls to stand up for what he believes. The MSM paints him as an insurrectionist. However, how many insurrections in history were perpetrated by unarmed people?
That "Black Sabbath" album brings back a lot of memories. When I was in college in the early 80's I won a call in radio contest, I could pick any single album from the local record mart. I still have "Paranoid".
Lol domestic terrorist. You obviously don't know the definition. He is far from it. All he did was stormed the capitol. Compared to BLM and Antifa, he is no where near that definition compared to those 2 groups.
I agree with all his choices. I'm not a big Rush fan but I have much respect for them. For me there is pre-Kiss Alive and post Kiss Alive. Pre-Kiss Alive for me was Alice Cooper Killer and Billion Dollar Babies, The Beatles Pepper and White Album. I would have to add Black Sabbath Mob Rules, and Ozzy Diary of a Madman for post Kiss Alive
For me it was Metallica -- Garage Days Revisited when I was 12 then Alice Cooper's Greatest Hits. I discovered thrash metal at a young age. I was late to the game when I found Iced Earth as I picked up Burnt Offerings. Seeing Iced Earth on The Glorious Burden tour I was spared from a tornado. Black Sabbath's first album was my entry into Goth and pulled out the black clothing, as I discovered Dehumanizer first. I discovered a peer of Iced Earth in the 1990s (Tourniquet) with Pathogenic Occular Dissonance then I picked up Trouble's Psalm 9 and Danzig's How The Gods Kill. I discovered Anthrax when I was a junior in high school as I got Scott Ian looking up Iced Earth during Ripper's tenor. Circle of Dust and Mortal introduced me to Industrial Metal. Black Sabbath, Trouble, COC and Cathedral had me picking up the guitar as I can play Ride's opening riffs on the guitar and Voivod's Insect on bass. I was wanting to combine Iced Earth style power/thrash metal, Metallica's And Justice For All era progressive thrash, Danzig's Gothicism, Judas Priest's Jugulator, and Circle of Dust along with Nine Inch Nail's venom in a unique heavy metal delivery. Iron Maiden's Piece of Mind and Somewhere in Time introduced me to Maiden as my favorite album is Fear of the Dark and The X-Factor. My own vocal style is akin to And Justice For All and Master of Puppets era Metallica combined with Far Beyond Driven era Pantera. Far Beyond Driven was a game changer with heavy metal as that was the heaviest fucking album to be introduced to the mainstream. I had The Wall when I was 16 as I can see Pink Floyd's influence in Iced Earth's sound. The heavy metal album that really floored me in the 1990s was Believer's Dimensions. Then in the 2000s I was floored by Novembers Doom's The Knowing and Empyrean Sky's Snow White Rose of Paradise. AC/DC's The Razor's Edge is my teen years as I was a freshmen in high school at the time. I also discovered Ultimatum's Into The Pit as that is a groundbreaking album as they draw from Metal Church and Exodus for their own sound. The Glorious Burden is one of the most important power metal albums of the 2000s then Tourniquet's When Moth and Rust Destroy and Voivod's self-titled release. Metal Church and Meliah Rage introduced me to American Power Metal then friends Grigori 3 as they combined classical, darkwave, Industrial and progressive metal in their first album as the second album combines thrash, alternative and darkwave as On Your Six is a wide array of guitar delivery.
The variety of his music tastes is pretty simillar to mine , so I understand more his music , like happend with the other people that likes almost the same , music is a universe and is pure energy and canallization . And I suspect that is a matter of filosophy inside , or behind those things , music at the end is art and is a alquemy between mind and soul .
@@metaldave08096 "Since when is pointing and yelling a federal crime" It isnt. But breaking into a federal building, trying to suppress democracy to install a dictator and sedition are actual federal crimes.
@@wolfstar675 They were let in by the capitol police. There was no "Storming the Capitol". Once the conservatives are back in power, they'll arrest you for being a liberal duchebag and lock you up in a federal jail for months on end with no due process since that's what you're excusing.
@@wolfstar675The first amendment protects the right to a peaceful protest. A few bad apples in the group caused law enforcement to overreach and a bit of chaos happened. It’s nothing compared to BLM riots.
I'm just three years older than Jon, but this small difference made me (after listening to AC/DC in the late 70th) listen to other stuff (new romantics, american punk, early techno). What a difference three years make! (by the way, now, that I'm 54, I appreciate 80th metal). Tom Woods got me here.
His new album "capitol riots" coming soon, with songs like, -Protest -under pursue -when mob attacks -most wanted (FBI saga) -aftermath -locked up Available in stores after parole.... Jokes aside, getting involved in the capitol riots, what were you thinking Jon...
Beloved Jon, Electric Funeral cover was in your Melancholy EP. The only EP in my CD collection (very few singles and no other EP since i prefer buying/listening to albums in general). I still remember the first time i saw that "kinda" black and white photo of the band and thinking "wow Matt and Larry have the best hair ever" (i was 13 at the time, what did you expect).
@@knattttt This happened in my city hunny, I saw everything, Didn't need to see the news to know what happened, I like to observe and report in person, And catch a few faces to snitch on them, I had the guts to go, What they did was recklesd and resulted in a woman getting killed and multiple other people dying, If you see nothing wrong with what happened, Then you are apart of the problem
@@glennquagmire6153 never said there was nothing wrong that happened that day first off. Secondly the woman that died was at the hands of an officer. Also I'm wondering if you saw Jon in person? Does that mean you also were storming in the Capital? Since you are claiming to have seen everything....because I heard many accounts of people that were there and say it was a peaceful protest until they were shot at with tear gas and that escalated things quickly. I'm not taking their word for it and stating that as truth. So unless you yourself were on the frontlines and storming inside the Capital your just spewing speculation and playing judge and jury over Jon Schaffer. And that is what I have an issue with.
6:41 When you fall in love with a band, you'll always want them to recapture that moment. And they're never going to be able to. @ First three Maiden albums 10:33 You'll always want them to redo that..: "Can you please do this album 20 times in your career?" Yeah that's not going to happen That's exactly how I feel about I.E. and their first three albums!! Found Burnt Offerings first and I love all the stuff they did before the most.
James also picks Ride the Lightning as his most favorite one. First album I've listened to from them, still my favorite. Jon always says some wise things, I loved the part about the pointless super technical stuff.
Paranoid is my favorite album about black sabbath and kiss isn't ever belong in my tastes, i don't really care what anyone says, the number of the beast is my favorite iron maiden album ever, it changed my life too somehow
James also picks Ride the Lightning as his most favorite one! First album I've listened to from them, still my favorite. Jon always says some wise things, I loved the part about the pointless super technical stuff.
Very few albums stand the test of time. I grew up with everything he has laid out on that table, and Van Halen / 2112 would be my picks if I could only walk out of that store with two albums. Ride The Lightning is the only Metallica album I'd buy a second time and I can listen to Maiden literally all day, but my 'desert island' albums would be DSOTM, Van Halen and 2112. Dinosaur ? Sure, but man the late 70s into early 80s is a time warp for those of us who were lucky enough to experience those albums the day they hit the shelves. I'll leave the politics alone - right now, I'm happy to go back to a world long before the events of the last four years.
This is a great video! I wish I had a record store in my town. If I ever live on my own (without roommates), I think I'll get a record player and get all my favorite albums on vinyl.
@@knattttt thank u so much and well spoke yourself u stay true to u and what u believe cause u have 80+ million of us right behind u they are demonizing him because he is a metal artist if it was a fucking rapper praising a cop killer it be different but we are no longer the United states of America we are now on our own
Ride the lightning is my one favorite album about metallica, no question about that at all, killers is good, glorious burden about iced earth is better than framing armaggedon but musically night of the stormrider and iced earth are betters, i own those albums all

I discovered a peer of Iced Earth in the 1990s (Tourniquet) with Pathogenic Occular Dissonance then I picked up Trouble's Psalm 9 and Danzig's How The Gods Kill. I discovered Anthrax when I was a junior in high school as I got Scott Ian looking up Iced Earth during Ripper's tenor.
Circle of Dust and Mortal introduced me to Industrial Metal. Black Sabbath, Trouble, COC and Cathedral had me picking up the guitar as I can play Ride's opening riffs on the guitar and Voivod's Insect on bass. I was wanting to combine Iced Earth style power/thrash metal, Metallica's And Justice For All era progressive thrash, Danzig's Gothicism, Judas Priest's Jugulator, and Circle of Dust along with Nine Inch Nail's venom in a unique heavy metal delivery. Iron Maiden's Piece of Mind and Somewhere in Time introduced me to Maiden as my favorite album is Fear of the Dark and The X-Factor. My own vocal style is akin to And Justice For All and Master of Puppets era Metallica combined with Far Beyond Driven era Pantera. Far Beyond Driven was a game changer with heavy metal as that was the heaviest fucking album to be introduced to the mainstream. I had The Wall when I was 16 as I can see Pink Floyd's influence in Iced Earth's sound. The heavy metal album that really floored me in the 1990s was Believer's Dimensions.
Then in the 2000s I was floored by Novembers Doom's The Knowing and Empyrean Sky's Snow White Rose of Paradise. AC/DC's The Razor's Edge is my teen years as I was a freshmen in high school at the time. I also discovered Ultimatum's Into The Pit as that is a groundbreaking album as they draw from Metal Church and Exodus for their own sound. The Glorious Burden is one of the most important power metal albums of the 2000s then Tourniquet's When Moth and Rust Destroy and Voivod's self-titled release. Metal Church and Meliah Rage introduced me to American Power Metal then friends Grigori 3 as they combined classical, darkwave, Industrial and progressive metal in their first album as the second album combines thrash, alternative and darkwave as On Your Six is a wide array of guitar delivery.
The variety of his music tastes is pretty simillar to mine , so I understand more his music , like happend with the other people that likes almost the same , music is a universe and is pure energy and canallization . And I suspect that is a matter of filosophy inside , or behind those things , music at the end is art and is a alquemy between mind and soul .
Jon and I have very similar favorite music records, but extremely different musical talent. Thx Jon!
Jon did nothing wrong.
Yes he did he committed a federal crime LOL
@@wolfstar675 since when is pointing and yelling a federal crime?
@@metaldave08096
"Since when is pointing and yelling a federal crime"
It isnt. But breaking into a federal building, trying to suppress democracy to install a dictator and sedition are actual federal crimes.
@@wolfstar675 They were let in by the capitol police. There was no "Storming the Capitol". Once the conservatives are back in power, they'll arrest you for being a liberal duchebag and lock you up in a federal jail for months on end with no due process since that's what you're excusing.
@@wolfstar675The first amendment protects the right to a peaceful protest. A few bad apples in the group caused law enforcement to overreach and a bit of chaos happened. It’s nothing compared to BLM riots.
At least he didn't storm in this time.
I'm just three years older than Jon, but this small difference made me (after listening to AC/DC in the late 70th) listen to other stuff (new romantics, american punk, early techno). What a difference three years make! (by the way, now, that I'm 54, I appreciate 80th metal). Tom Woods got me here.
Nine dislikes? How to dislike this Video and first of all WHY? I think, it's pretty cool to know the taste and influences of a hero...
Because he stormed the Capitol?
God bless Jon's big sis, I guess
His new album "capitol riots" coming soon, with songs like,
-Protest
-under pursue
-when mob attacks
-most wanted (FBI saga)
-aftermath
-locked up
Available in stores after parole....
Jokes aside, getting involved in the capitol riots, what were you thinking Jon...
Bad move going inside the building but that doesn't take away that he speaks the truth
@@Searching33 speaks the truth...what truth ??
@@robertogarcia1797 about the elites. But he was misguided in supporting Trump who’s one of them anyway.
Beloved Jon, Electric Funeral cover was in your Melancholy EP. The only EP in my CD collection (very few singles and no other EP since i prefer buying/listening to albums in general). I still remember the first time i saw that "kinda" black and white photo of the band and thinking "wow Matt and Larry have the best hair ever" (i was 13 at the time, what did you expect).
I like Iced Earth a lot and What he have done in Politics its his Turn greetings
Bad timing algorithm, Bad timing...
Great timing! Jon Schaffer is a fantastic metal musician and a proud American. Let's celebrate his legacy 🤘
@@knattttt Sorry i don't support domestic terrorist
@@glennquagmire6153 😂😂😂 of course not but you do support what and who the mainstream media tells you to. Night night mushy mind
@@knattttt This happened in my city hunny, I saw everything, Didn't need to see the news to know what happened, I like to observe and report in person, And catch a few faces to snitch on them, I had the guts to go, What they did was recklesd and resulted in a woman getting killed and multiple other people dying, If you see nothing wrong with what happened, Then you are apart of the problem
@@glennquagmire6153 never said there was nothing wrong that happened that day first off. Secondly the woman that died was at the hands of an officer. Also I'm wondering if you saw Jon in person? Does that mean you also were storming in the Capital? Since you are claiming to have seen everything....because I heard many accounts of people that were there and say it was a peaceful protest until they were shot at with tear gas and that escalated things quickly. I'm not taking their word for it and stating that as truth. So unless you yourself were on the frontlines and storming inside the Capital your just spewing speculation and playing judge and jury over Jon Schaffer. And that is what I have an issue with.
I heard that he doesnt like Black metal
Lololol
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Black metal is pretty shitty so that is understandable.
Awesome. Great choices, Jon. As for that Glorious Burden album, High water mark is my favorite. Long Live Iced Earth.
Jon fuckin RULES! 👊🏻🇺🇸
6:41 When you fall in love with a band, you'll always want them to recapture that moment. And they're never going to be able to. @ First three Maiden albums
10:33 You'll always want them to redo that..: "Can you please do this album 20 times in your career?" Yeah that's not going to happen
That's exactly how I feel about I.E. and their first three albums!! Found Burnt Offerings first and I love all the stuff they did before the most.
Metal Heads need to grow up and accept musicians evolving. It’s a natural progression for any musician.
I agree with you though.
Ich bin auch ein absoluter Fan von euch allen und ich habe euch schon live gesehen ihr seit alle zusammen super 🤘 🤘 🤘 😊❤❤
I would be stoked too if i found The Glorious Burden on vinyl :D
GLORIOUS BURDEN IS A FUCKING MASTERPIECE!!!!!!!!!!!!
James also picks Ride the Lightning as his most favorite one. First album I've listened to from them, still my favorite. Jon always says some wise things, I loved the part about the pointless super technical stuff.
Best metal band existing today
Nowhere near: Cannibal Corpse, Slayer, Kreator, Testament, Cattle Decapitation, Carcass, just to name few of them
Paranoid is my favorite album about black sabbath and kiss isn't ever belong in my tastes, i don't really care what anyone says, the number of the beast is my favorite iron maiden album ever, it changed my life too somehow
I'm surprised he didn't mention Lizzy Borden. Back in 1985 he played Love You To Pieces album for me many times, and it blew me away
They most likely didn't have the record at the shop. I know he is big Borden fan. How did you know him ?
@@vickhones9961 i lived a few blocks away from him and Greg in Sulpher springs Tampa.
RIP Iced Earth
Rest in piss.
Never! True Metalheads will keep their music alive because we know Metal never dies!!! Especially some of the finest metal as Iced Earth
Who says the band is dead? False proclamation from a dweeb reading yahoo news headlines.
@@matthewhulderman701 i didn't say the band is dead you fool i said RIP for that idiot Jon Schaffer's riot
@@DashieNegan41 it's always especially funny when the biggest idiot in the room starts calling others an idiot!

Ride the lightning is one of the best albums of all time.
Man, all the soyboys jumped in here to comment and they don’t even know Iced Earth. Lol
Very few albums stand the test of time. I grew up with everything he has laid out on that table, and Van Halen / 2112 would be my picks if I could only walk out of that store with two albums. Ride The Lightning is the only Metallica album I'd buy a second time and I can listen to Maiden literally all day, but my 'desert island' albums would be DSOTM, Van Halen and 2112. Dinosaur ? Sure, but man the late 70s into early 80s is a time warp for those of us who were lucky enough to experience those albums the day they hit the shelves. I'll leave the politics alone - right now, I'm happy to go back to a world long before the events of the last four years.
This is a great video! I wish I had a record store in my town. If I ever live on my own (without roommates), I think I'll get a record player and get all my favorite albums on vinyl.
He looks like such a nice guy
Kakapac He is. He's fun to be around
He is a real chill open and honest dude. I've met him twice and hung out with him. He even Answered all my questions about Demons & wizards.
My dad also does demons and wizards artwork he just helped them drop PERGUTORY
@@thecoofjackson7471 man i really wondered what did you ask and what did he say?
I have loved iced earth since I forat heard them 25 years ago and I still love them only more now this amazing man stormed lol

..... Free can of bear spray with each ICED EARTH album you buy....
ΓΕΙΑ ΣΟΥ ΡΕ SCHAFFER ΜΕ ΤΙΣ ΚΟΜΜΑΤΑΡΕΣ ΠΟΥ ΕΓΡΑΨΕΣ ΣΤΟ INCORRUPTIBLE ΣΥΓΧΑΡΗΤΉΡΙΑ ΚΑΙ ΠΆΝΤΑ ΤΕΤΟΙΑ
Buying your own vinyl , now that's br00talz ! haha , just kidding , keep up the good work John ! Love Iced Earth
This guys is a really badass and he knows what true metal is.
Ride the lightning is my one favorite album about metallica, no question about that at all, killers is good, glorious burden about iced earth is better than framing armaggedon but musically night of the stormrider and iced earth are betters, i own those albums all
Fucking hell, Jon, if you didn't take part in the whole capitol fiasco, I wouldn't have to see this comment section which is pure cancer.
