@@jefferymyers3687 he has done Awake and Alive ... it's really funny, because that's when he first realized that Jen was the drummer ... and she sings!!! Hilarious lol
Man, after all these years, Skillet is still cranking out some great music! Very impressive. Most bands lose their edge over time, but Skillet just just keeps turning out gold!
Hey Alex, you should check out Skillet's Drummer's side project band called Ledger, she is the lead singer of that band and You should also check out Skillet's lead singer's and Lead Guitarist's Side project called "Fight The Fury" that is heavy metal band!!! ❤️
Ok the drummer...her name is Jen Ledger. She did her own record. Band was called Ledger. You have to listen to the song “Iconic”. If you love her voice you need to hear this song.
I've said it before and I'll say it again. What a blessing to have met Jen Ledger in person. I dont get starstruck but that day I did. What an incredible human being and talented too beyond belief. Love this band so much.
A few suggestions from one Skillet fan to another one: Reach, Victorious, Save Me, Lucy, Never Surrender, Would It Matter, One Day Too Late, Believe, Don't Wake Me, The Older I Get, Yours To hold, The Last Night, Those Nights, Rebirthing, Say Goodbye, Falling Inside the Black, Salvation, Stars, Collide, You Are My Hope and many more. And since you said you really like Jen Ledger's voice you should check her band, it's called Ledger and they have some incredible songs, my personal favorites are Ruins, My Arms and Not Dead Yet but all of them are great.
I think it's awesome that you did a Skillet react video on the day that Jen Ledger, their drummer, became an official US citizen! I've become quite the Panhead over the last couple of months myself. Would highly enjoy getting to see them in concert someday.
Ur joking right? They’re literally a run of the mill Christian band from the lyrics to the riffs..red pillar Jonah 33 p.o.d etc all of them lmaoooo geezuz christians need to stay the fuck out of metal y’all ain’t imaginative enough for this shit the lyrics always talk about the same shit the only real variant is the riffs themselves and even those aren’t that imaginative
Yesss! I've been waiting for this reaction dude! This song is actually my ringtone. So glad you liked it. Another great song by them is I Want to Live. John and Jen's voices mix very well in that song.
Hey Alex. Thank you for another enjoyable reaction. I have been a subscriber for a while now and honestly can say that I have never come across any of your videos that I didnt enjoy. I think it is so amazing that are taking a liking to Skillet. The first of their performances I ever experienced was a song called "Sick of It". After that one performance I was hooked for life. This happened when I was pretty much at rock bottom due to my aclohol addiction. I was actually registered to check in to a year long rehab facility when I discovered Skillet. I was having a lot of anxiety about going into this rehab program and having to leave my family behind. There were many forces at work that helped me to actually check-in to the program and to also stick with it for the full year. Music has always been a huge part of my life. Once I started listening to Skillet I loved them so much that I couldn't stop. Everytime I would listen to them I would feel a peace come over me and any anxiety I was feeling was gone. Yes, Skillet is a Christan Rock / Metal band, but the way they compose most of their songs, anyone, Christian or not, can fing a song or ten that they enjoy listening to. I believe that most, if not all, of their songs contain lyrics that praise God and talk about how with God's love on your side that you can overcome literally anything and Rise Up to become the person that he created you to be. Anyway, I'll step down from my soap box now by saying that I firmly believe that, in part, the music of Skillet is one of the reasons that I am still here today! I have included below a link to Skillet's performace of "Sick of It". I would love to see you do a reaction to this video and also to hear your thoughts after it is done. Skillet - "Sick Of It" Official Video ruclips.net/video/AHzU-9iozmo/видео.html Keep it Real Brother, Gord
Well thank God it is cause these guys were already my favorite band from their earliest work from years ago to their latest work in present time! Thank fuck I’ve already listened to songs like this one cause it’s songs like these are why this is my favorite band and I can see why others have been requesting songs like this one from bands like Skillet! Looking forward to more Skillet reactions like this one in the near future and I do mean in the near future! Keep on rocking, bro!🎸🎸🎸
OMG!!!! I've been waiting for this reaction for so long hahaha so good!! I was having a kinda bad day and this video was what I needed today!! Hahaha thanks man!! Keep it up!!
I highly recommend Victorious by Skillet because Chester's passing was a motivation for writing the song. Try to find John talking about the song live because he goes into more detail, and it's an awesome powerful song
Ive been a headbanger my whole 53 year old life but 10 years ago, my then 10 year old son introduced me to Skillet 🤘🏼 My reaction to “Monster” was pretty much like this one Alex! They are still my fave band! Rock on Kiddo! 😎
I saw them play feel invincible in concert. There had a guy in a hood on the main stage, a guy on a separate center stage, both singing the first lines from the song. Then when the main part of the song came in John Cooper bungee jumped from the top of a screen and got pulled up when he said shot like a rocket.
I've been waiting for ages for you to do this one... hands down my favourite Skillet song, you can't listen to it and not feel awesome its a total power up track.
Holy sheeeeeeeeiiiitttt... took long enough! Skillet will always have that special place in my heart. Been listening big time for the past 16 or so years!
Your face when you realised it hadn't finished was ace. Ive been listening to skillet alot lately aswell, just puts me in a positive mood. I love their songs lions and not gonna die. Hope your having a fab day dude, much love.
You often comment on how you love the combination of the male and female vocals. Yep. Love the dichotomy of his growl and screamo and her pure clear feminine voice!
Dude I love it when you react to skillet! You should try the bands Thousand Foot Krutch, Pillar, Decyfer Down, Disciple, or Ashes Remain. All these bands are really good! If not these bands there’s plenty more Skillet you can react to! 😉
I love that you're about to take the headphones off and then get hit with that guitar solo. Great react, dude. Love your content and I love all the Skillet reacts a ton!
I swear skillet gives me a whole new energy level that I never knew I had. The music literally takes me over and I can't help but get into it and jump around sing along and just god would I love to be there.
It’s great to see you again, Alex, and I love watching you react to Skillet. They’ve got a ton of new stuff I’d love to see you react to. Save Me, Legendary, Victorious, Breaking Free, among others.
Hey Alex, check out "We as Human, Take the Bullets away Ft Lacey Sturm" and also they do a song called "Zombie" Ft John Cooper the lead singer for Skillet.
If you'd like to hear their evolution, check out "I Can" (1996), "Locked in a Cage" (1998), "Best Kept Secret" (2000), "Kill Me, Heal Me" (2001), and "Forsaken" (2003). In all of these John and Kory (joined Skillet in 2000), are the only members still in the band. Any female vocals are Kory.
They have great songs from all albums. Sometimes once bands get bigger their older albums get forgotten. One of my favorite songs is Saturn off the first album too.
Yes they do. I just listed one song per album until they got to the sound they have now. "Saturn" was the first Skillet song I ever heard. I've been listening to them since the first album came out in 96.
@@matthewcompton3448 me too. Unfortunately I think I have only seen them once when they first started. Great selection of songs. Hopefully Alex digs deeper into all their work.
Been watching you since you reacted to Master of Puppets and officially got into the metal world. Love the content! I got to see them live twice!!! Back from the Dead is amazing!! Undefeated!! Don’t Wake Me, Believe, and Watching For Comets are incredible but also heartbreaking. Those Nights’ lyrics I relate to.
I waited very patiently to see his face at the surprise ending and was not disappointed
Me too brooooo
SAME
100% same
SAME BRO
Best ending to an album bruh. That’s how you pump it!
SKILLET- WHISPERS IN THE DARK
That was the first song I heard by them and I was in for life
Already did that
ruclips.net/video/DQiM_Lw_7oo/видео.html
That is an absolute belter
Mine was comatose then monster
He did whispers in the dark, about a year ago!
For me it was monster
Skillet - Finish Line
Skillet - Back to Life
Skillet - Rise Up
Exactly
Savior, freak show, and awake and alive
Yours to Hold, Last Night, Looking For Angels
Back to life! ... awesome and Rise up! ... Finish line is good too bit not as good
@@jefferymyers3687 he has done Awake and Alive ... it's really funny, because that's when he first realized that Jen was the drummer ... and she sings!!! Hilarious lol
You need to listen to "Save Me" by Skillet it's a powerful song, probably tied with Hero as my favourite! 😁🤟
Yes, Save me is absolutely amazing!
That is an amazing song definitely one of my favorites
He definitely does
Save Me is overrated but "Feel Invincible" is their best song
Great song and Sick of it
4:17 I love how he thinks the song is over, then...
Alex's face when Jen's vocals came in! 🔥👌
For me, Skillet , Linkin Park and ACDC are the only bands that I love every song from every album. Every damn song.
100% this
And System of a Down
@@andrijavuletic33 "for me"
you and me both
Starset for me is among this list.
Man, after all these years, Skillet is still cranking out some great music! Very impressive. Most bands lose their edge over time, but Skillet just just keeps turning out gold!
Skillet - Feel Invincible is an actual hype train song
Yesss
He has reacted to feel Invincible!
My #1 workout song!!
Hey Alex, you should check out Skillet's Drummer's side project band called Ledger, she is the lead singer of that band and You should also check out Skillet's lead singer's and Lead Guitarist's Side project called "Fight The Fury" that is heavy metal band!!! ❤️
Get that to the top, guys
Big facts I love her music
Her song, Warrior, is really fun.
@@rojoloco I love My Arms
Rampage and Not Dead Yet are my two favorites. I got to meet her and Skillet at a concert in atlanta. Great people. Loads of fun
Jen has great vocals and has such a loveable personality.
Ok the drummer...her name is Jen Ledger. She did her own record. Band was called Ledger. You have to listen to the song “Iconic”. If you love her voice you need to hear this song.

Open Wounds should be on that list.
Oooooh, do Lucy. Such a sad song but super powerful.
Why no one suggest circus for a psycho???
Yessssss Go go go, Back from the Dead -Skillet))
Alex singing made my day!! Get it gurl!!
i've been a skillet fan since i was 4 years old and I'm not even Christian or American . now I'm 20 and I'm still a fan
I never clicked so fast in my life
I think it's awesome that you did a Skillet react video on the day that Jen Ledger, their drummer, became an official US citizen! I've become quite the Panhead over the last couple of months myself. Would highly enjoy getting to see them in concert someday.
Skillet is one of the most unique bands I’ve ever seen . No one is like them- NO 1
CHEVELLE N SKILLET...🔺🔺🔺
Gojira is also pretty unique
Check out Falling Up and your mind will be blown.

chassy xD
🤟 *Y E S* 🤟
Not to spoil the lead singer for ya Alex... but you need to listen to this!
Hell yes
I've been listening them for like 13 years now, my reaction has never changed! Love Skillet!!!!
Yesss! I've been waiting for this reaction dude! This song is actually my ringtone. So glad you liked it. Another great song by them is I Want to Live. John and Jen's voices mix very well in that song.
Alex is an official Panhead now for sure. Check out their older albums too. Songs like I Can, Saturn, Locked in a Cage, Best Kept Secret.
If you like skillet you might like John Coopers other project named Fight the Fury most of the songs are heavy
I SECOND THIS
Third not to mention Jens solo project
YES SIR!!!!
@@michaellatus2085 Ledger is dope as shit.
Yes!! So good!!
How were they not your favorite band before this? Check out their song Save Me.
Because they suck, what a joke
@@Volunteerfan8082 I don't think your opinion is popular.
@Cody Adams I didn't say it was my favorite band?
@Cody Adams I hate people like you who can't like a song just because it's not "heavy" enough. You ruin the world.
@@lawz0 nah every skillet song sounds exactly the same
I love that you love Skillet. Good review! Just awesome. One band that needs to be heard more. Thanks for that.
Not Dead Yet by Jen Ledger. She’s the drummer of Skillet
I was just WAITING on that ending. Nobody reacts to this song, but lordy it’s a BANGER
Skillet is so amazing. When you see them live it's amazing how well they play. Most bands sound good in studio but not live.
@Mason Ostebo Have you heard of Slipknot? They literally sound just like their albums live.
Holy shit that outro is epic

Jen has such a beautiful voice
Absolutely powerful being sung at a concert, especially hearing the audience get into it as well. Saw their concert in Australia
I love how he thought it was over and begun to speak then the ending came on hard.
Skillet is just so amazing I've seen them 4 times live
A powerful song that I just adore is Falling Inside the Black.
Same
yes I love that song
My fav Skillet song! I know you’ve reacted to others, but there’s so many more as well. Keep the Skillet train rolling Alex!
Yes! Been waiting for this one!
You should do a Starset reaction.
On any of their songs.
Yes! Starset bro!
I am very patiently waiting for him to become obsessed with their first two albums. Masyerpieces
Omg pleeease we need Starset reactions
A reaction to everglow would be awesome
He has, he did Manifest about a year ago. Hope he does more!
You should listen to "skillet Victorious" cuz Jen Voice sound very good.
I’m obsessed with how the drums change after the bridge AHHH
Nice reaction dude. One of my faves
Just as an interesting little side note, Jen (the Drummer) just became a US citizen a few days ago :)
Three songs all different vibes. Fire and fury, legendary and Stars. Do all at the same time to see their range.
Daaaaaaaaaaaamn you reminded me of a great band I used to listened as a teenager. Thanks a LOT, ill definitely listen to them now again
Skillet is my favorite band too! Love them, and love your reactions too, Alex!
Monster is the first song I ever heard from them
I highly recommend Victorious by Skillet because Chester's passing was a motivation for writing the song. Try to find John talking about the song live because he goes into more detail, and it's an awesome powerful song

If you love ledger's voice I suggest listening to some of her songs, bold, foreigner, iconic, my arms are IMO her 4 best so far.
Skillet is just so epic. That’s why I love them. Their lyrics can be a bit cheesy at times but their musical talent totally makes up for it.
Love this song Alex so happy u reacted

Loved this reaction and love this band ❤️
Hey Alex! If you love her voice, you should react to "Not Dead Yet " by LEDGER. It's her solo project and she is the signer. It's awesome!
Beat me it! I was gonna say the same thing. One of my favourite songs and her voice is phenomenal!
My Arms best💘
Circus for a Psycho by Skillet is amazing. Highly recommend.
Just looked it up, man, I forgot all about that song.
Your reactions re the best, you vibe with the music. The best music reaction channel by far!!!
I've loved Skillet since 96! Glad you're a fan dude
I love how much u enjoy this song. Skillet has it figured out, no doubt.
They have sucking figured out real well
@@Volunteerfan8082 not cool.👎🏼 keep your negative comments to yourself

SIIIIICK! Awesome music and vocals! I loved how it came back in. Psych! LOL
Skillet have been my favorite band for more than 10 years and they definitively will be for ever
If you like skillet THEN YOU LOVE FIGHT THE FURY!! ITS LITERALLY A RE-DESIGN OF SKILLET TO BE DARKER AND HARDER
If you'd like to hear their evolution, check out "I Can" (1996), "Locked in a Cage" (1998), "Best Kept Secret" (2000), "Kill Me, Heal Me" (2001), and "Forsaken" (2003). In all of these John and Kory (joined Skillet in 2000), are the only members still in the band. Any female vocals are Kory.

Skillet are on another level. Check out John Coopers podcast. He’s an amazing individual. Glad this band impresses you. They hit you hard every time
I have seen this band in concert and I absolutely loved it the energy they have preforming is amazing 😍
Been watching you since you reacted to Master of Puppets and officially got into the metal world. Love the content!
I got to see them live twice!!!
Back from the Dead is amazing!!
Undefeated!!
Don’t Wake Me, Believe, and Watching For Comets are incredible but also heartbreaking.
Those Nights’ lyrics I relate to.
You gotta go for “Sick Of It” from them now
or Rise from the same album
Yes Sick of it!!!
If you love Jen's voice you should check out her solo project LEDGER.
She put out some solid songs aswell :) one featuring john (skillet singer)
Wasn't Ben also featured on Jen's solo stuff? Or am I mistaken?
I’m so obsessed with skillet rn omg
Loved it, amazing band with a great message !
Madness in Me from Skillet is a good one too! Way too underrated!
Monster is still my favorite, love that distorted "FEEL LIKE A MONSTER!" line.
Dude u cracked me up at the end with that accent 😆 I love it!
Been waiting sooo long for you to do this song, gotta do “save me” next !
