"Gonna go ahead and guess this is super close." You would be absolutely correct, sir :) And we ride tigers, because we can tell from their stripes, we know they're clean.
Welcome to Liliac they are a family band ages currently 13 till 22 . They started out playing weekends at Santa Monica for years. Melody the lead singer is a big fan of Ronnie James Dio. Rip To the point that Wendy Dio requested they do The Last in Line another Dio song for a cancer fundraiser they do on his birthday which was about three weeks ago when Vinny Appici Dios former drummer gave them an unreleased version of the song for fundraiser.And they had one week to do it and it’s phenomenal.
Original was done by DIO. He is the hero for the lead singer but has passed away. The clean, crisp sound is a hallmark of their music. As good as they are on covers, their originals are also excellent. Almost all their videos are on their RUclips channel. Many thanks for this.
Melody, the lead, is a HUGE Dio fan. These guys were asked to play at the Dio Cancer Memorial (they were actually asked to perform The Last in Line). Nobody will ever be another Ronnie James, but these guys do one hell of a tribute (at least, his wife and bandmates sure think so).
Liliac pronounced lil ee ack sounds as close as you can get to the original . These kids are a family band 3brothers and 2sisters and they are renowned for their tribute covers as well as their fantastic original songs . They have been playing together since Justin the keyboard player was around 7yrs old , they are all accomplished musicians and tackle some very complicated songs . They are fiercely independent and are managed and produced by their father known as papa Liliac . They shoot all their own videos for no money which are then edited by Sam the lead guitarist who is the eldest at 22 Melody is the lead singer at 19 and her voice has been compared to singers like Janice Joplin , Joan jett , Melissa Ethridge , Liz hale etc but she is unique she is totally different to any of them , for more information check out rheir u tube channel where you have been referred to .Do us fans known as fangs afavour and yourself as well and react to more Liliac you have nothing to lose . Fang4life RORH
Yes, more Liliac please! “I don’t know why we’re riding tigers.” Haha, luv it. I recommend “Mars” live in Cumming GA. It’s a great song, you get to see them perform live, and the audio is fantastic. Enjoy! Fang4life! RO&RH! 🤘😎🤘
Its Lilly - ak a family band 3 brothers 2 sistets checkout Nothing an original by them , all there originals kick butt!!!!! Great reaction they were part of the Ronnie James Dio Cancer Fundraiser on Dio bjrth day 7/10/2021. Wendy Dio asked them to do The Last In Line. She is a big Liliac fan. Dio and Dio era Black Sabbath drummer Vinny Appice gave them a rare longer unreleased version of the song. Vinny and Lzzy Hale also big Liliac fans.
This sounds very much like the original. I really like this band made up of siblings. I would also suggest watching crazy train on the Santa Monica pier and enter sandman along with a couple of their originals.
The Fangs (Liliac Fans) have been filling you in on some details already, but Really all you need to know, is they are amazing at everything they do. Pick anything... Old, new, cover original, Vlogs, Tv shows & interviews, etc.. You will be sucked in, just like the rest of us. Good clean wholesome youth, with good moralistic parents, sharing what they love with the world. Keep going please! Thank you!
"Ride the tiger" is escaping through drug use. This cover sounds pretty close to Ronny's original. Liliac is a very good band, brothers and sisters. Have a great day.
Their Producer is their Dad (PaPa Liliac). He also does the videoing. He use to produce with MTV and eventually had a recording studio. Sam (the oldest, 22 now) also does the editing. They spent years performing on the Sana Monica pier when they were really young. They moved to Georgia a couple of years ago because of the covid lockdown in California.
OK so you lose a little something if you don't know the original. You should check out Ronnie James Dio the king of rock. But you gain something too. The video and recording are basically homemade, their father is a producer, and films the videos. Sam the guitarist edits them. They do excellent covers as a rule, but also have 2 albums of originals. I said you lose something not knowing the original, but in return you hear them with no bias. This is indeed a great cover. It was a great reaction as well!
Intuitive reaction. Nicely done. Liliac… Family band, all siblings. Dad is the producer. Thanks for this. If you want to see them do a great original, recommend “Nothing”. Can’t really go wrong with anything they’ve done.
Yes, Please react to Liliac's Originals & Their covers to Janice Joplin, Joan Jett, Metallica, Megadeath, Ozzy Osborne, Iron Maiden, Kiss&, Etc.... I want to hear Everyone's reactions. Because they are 5 siblings + Papa & Mama - Liliac. They are Independently financing their "Own Rock band - Liliac." Ages: 13-22. They are Impressive!! Look at their early start!
This is the cover that got the attention of Vince Appice, Dio's former drummer, and Wendy Dio, Ronnie James Dio's widow. They are both now huge supporters of this band, especially Vince. They and their Dad are the primary video "team", the lead guitar player does the video editing and they have greatly improved their video capabilities as later videos will show.
A church is probably one of the most standard backdrops for a metal video. Right up there with castles, factories, parking garages, and abandoned houses.
I was not expecting to see Liliac on a reaction video. A few years back, they made a little splash on social media, as clearly their musical chops are there, and their singer is immensely talented. Glad to see they are not just a flash in the pan. And yes...they nailed the cover.
Wendy Dio posted this on the Ronnie James Dio Facebook page about a year, or maybe two, ago. Since then these kids have become friends with Vinny Appice, friend and drummer of the late, great Ronnie James Dio. Dio was a big inspiration for Melodia. Wendy Dio has since invited them to perform for the RJD Cancer Fundraiser (RJD died of cancer) and assigned them The Last in Line to sing, which they killed. You are a bit late to the Liliac phenomenon. These kids have taken the world by storm, not easy when you are totally independent. They have gotten all of the right attention and have released some 20+ original songs as well a slew of covers. Keep going down the rabbit hole as it leads to a bat cave. You won't be sorry. BTW, Liliac is Romanian for bat. It sounds much like the original. They add the Liliac touch to every cover but stay very true to the originals. BTW, their music producer is their Dad!
How did I miss this one? I've suggested the HELL out of these guys. Check out their original song Sail Away or their new cover of Seven Nation Army. This is a family band. They're amazing.
They are fantastic ! Everything they do is awesome , originals and covers . When they did The Last In Line for the Dio cancer benefit , the got the song and we're given 7 days to learn it and have the video done for the benefit . They finished it in 6 days !
LiLiac is the best Fang Metal Rock Band out there you should also listen to Crazy Train, Chain of Thorns, Crazy Nights, Mars, Nothing, We are the Children, Queen of Hearts , Master of Destruction, Sail Away (LiLiac's Ballad) !
You should see the original with dio to really appreciate them they do a fantastic job. The lead singer melody idolizesdio and has his movements down to a science. These guys are excellent. That original music is good too
You have gained a new subscriber... Due to your spot on critiques of this performance... you have a great ear!! And to answer your question, yes it's so spot on it's sickening... flawless
You really need to check out the rest of the covers they do, and not to mention their own originals. This is a very young family band. Three brothers and two sisters. Please react to more of their songs. They just had a new release of The Last in Line by Ronnie James Dio. The song was given to them to play at the cancer fund benefit for Dio by his wife and band member. It was perfect as usual.
the band is not named after the flower, The correct Pronunciation is("Lily-ack" named after a Romanian bat! The band is managed by their father the parents are from Romania but live here in USA
I just caught you. Loved your true reaction not knowing the artist or genre much. This is a family band. This is kind of the middle of there current ages. You can tell how early by how young Justin looks, keys, and Melody, singer, on bass. Ronnie James Dio is her main inspiration. Vinnie Appice, Black Sabbath/ DIO drummer has said many times that she is the reincarnation of a female DIO. They do excellent covers no matter what age they were, however they have fantastic originals too. If you do more of them, you gotta check out their originals. Their current ages range from 22 to 13. They are US born to Romanian born parents. Lil-e-ac is the Romanian word for bat. Great reaction. Hope to see more Liliac from you. Peace. Stay safe. God Speed. FANG 4 LIFE! RORH 🤘 🦇
It's a family band, yes. All of them are brothers and sisters. I recently had "Liliac' on my Podcast show. It's on my channel. Melody is an amazing vocalist. They're managed by their father. The original was written by the late Ronnie James Dio. His drummer recently reached out to Liliac and they've since become friends and have worked together. They have some original content as well. React to their song called "Nothing" and also "Sail Away" both originals.
My dad was a big Dio fan. A few years before he passed my brother and I took him to deep purple, dio, and scorpions concert for his birthday. Was a awesome concert. Great cover, takes me back.
This is an excellent cover of Holy Diver, but I gotta throw in with other people saying you should absolutely check out some Dio in the future, man is one of the legends of metal. I'm partial to Man on the Silver Mountain and Give Her the Gun, as well as the original Holy Diver.
Checkout The Warning. There a young lady power rock trio. Ages 21,19 &16. Their latest release Evolve is a banger. They are opening for the Foo Fighters this fall. They are going to be on Metallicas Black album tribute release in September. BTW ShaunTrack RUclipsr from Spain did a collaboration with The Warning of Evolve live from his studio. Check it out. Thank you
First you need to hear original song Holy Diver from DIO..then this cover...and Dio is our metal icon and King..please check song Sail Away from Liliac...you then much love them
just like you, i have learned dio by watching these amazing kids. i didnt grow up being a fan of ronnie james dio but melody here is a huge fan of his and loves to cover his music. they do great covers and awesome originals try mars live from cummings ga and sailaway those are 2 originals that will show their true talents.
OK, as others have said, Liliac (pronounced LILY - ACK) is a family band first formed around 2013 or so, by the name of The Cristeas (their family name). And it was only the 3 oldest at the time, and they sang covers of pop songs, like a Rhianna song for example. However in 2015, when the two youngest kids were old enough to learn and play an instrument, they switched to playing Rock and Metal and changed their name to Liliac. Their first Rock cover was Wild Thing. The current bass player, starred off with rhythm guitar. The vocalist played bass early on, but dropped it in favor of being more of a frontwoman. That transition occurred between the videos Chain of Thorns and Dancing in the Dark. Their parents are Romanian. Their father grew up very near Vlad the Impaler's castle in Transylvania. The name Liliac means Bat in Romanian. And so the band adopted what they call Vamp Metal as their style. (It's more of a Look than a music style.) The father was a music producer and a sound engineer. So it was quite easy for him to put out great arrangements and mix the sound very well. You'll most definitely hear the bass in all of their videos and songs. The Keyboards come thru pretty good as well. Their mother handles all the Merch. They produce all music and videos themselves away from the big Record Labels which is a good thing, because it allows them to do what they want and not what the Labels want. The family originally lived in Seattle, but eventually moved to Santa Monica area where they performed on the Pier every weekend. But now they live in Georgia as of late 2020. In their video for Mystery they used the Georgia Guide Stones as a backdrop, which are located out in the country east of Atlanta. Now then, about Dio. Ronnie James Dio is, or shall I say, was an old school Metal vocalist going back to the 70s. He sang for Rainbow, Black Sabbath, and his own solo career under the name Dio. Holy Diver was the title track to his debut album, going back to 1983. Do yourself a favor and look up the original and then compare to Liliac'x cover of it, and you'll find that it's spot on....as are all their covers. Why? Because well, first of all, Melody, the vocalist is a huge fan of Dio and she draws her influence from him, and second, due to her raspy singing voice she can mimick many male vocalists depending on the band they're covering. That said, their Originals are also Extremely good as well, if not better than their covers. If you wanna blow up your channels views, and subscribers, do more Liliac songs and you'll see your channel grow big time.
so you think theyre young here....go back to when they were the cristeas....mere babies.....you have long journey ahead of you if you keep following them to their originals.....my personal picks....the trooper(iron maiden cover), i hate myself for loving you(joan jett cover), nothing(original kick ass rocker), sail away(original ballad)...just my 2cents
They did an excellent job with this cover, to be sure. I strongly suggest their cover of Metallica's Master of Puppets and Joan Jett's I Hate Myself for Loving You. Killer performances that allows one to see the full extent of the singer's remarkable range.
This is a fantastic cover. Their cover of crazy train is just as impressive, maybe more so, because they were 2 yrs younger. If you're going to react to a cover, it might be a good idea to hear the original first. The ability to compare would be a big part of the reaction. I got chills on my arms within the first 30 seconds of this song. Most likely because it was so near perfect that i instantly thought of how much Ronny James Dio would enjoy it if he was still with us
Your reaction to Liliac was 10 months ago, more or less, why have you not done more reactions to this fantastic band. They have more great covers (one being Master of Puppets) and originals i.e, Mars, Dancing in the dark, Sail Away and others. ❤️❤️❤️
They did a great job on this song and for the artists they’re covering was an iconic singer!Ronnie James Dio R.I.P
The cover is spot on. Everything they do is by themselves, there an independent band with 2 original albums. They record master. Edit there own videos . There dad is the manager and mom runs the mech dept. Originals to checkout Mars live in Cummings Ga. Nothing, Sail Away, Mystery, Dancing In The Dark and We Are The Children , just to start , they are the future of Rock. There popularity is growing fast. Great reaction. Pronounced Lilly - Ack. It means Bat in Romanian , They were born in California both Mom and Dad are from Romania and dad from Transylvania.

Wow! Liliac just hit the big time reactions with MrLboyd. Big fan of your reactions.
You gotta do the original, Ronnie James Dio was a stand out metal singer
Yes. Dio was the 1st metal band-singer that opened for me the world of heavy metal and helped ma start loving it.
Melody, the lead, is a HUGE Dio fan. These guys were asked to play at the Dio Cancer Memorial (they were actually asked to perform The Last in Line). Nobody will ever be another Ronnie James, but these guys do one hell of a tribute (at least, his wife and bandmates sure think so).
The timing, tone, balance of instrumentation is all spot on to the original.
Liliac pronounced lil ee ack sounds as close as you can get to the original .

Yes, more Liliac please! “I don’t know why we’re riding tigers.” Haha, luv it. I recommend “Mars” live in Cumming GA. It’s a great song, you get to see them perform live, and the audio is fantastic.
Enjoy!
Fang4life! RO&RH! 🤘😎🤘
Its Lilly - ak a family band 3 brothers 2 sistets checkout Nothing an original by them , all there originals kick butt!!!!! Great reaction they were part of the Ronnie James Dio Cancer Fundraiser on Dio bjrth day 7/10/2021. Wendy Dio asked them to do The Last In Line. She is a big Liliac fan. Dio and Dio era Black Sabbath drummer Vinny Appice gave them a rare longer unreleased version of the song. Vinny and Lzzy Hale also big Liliac fans.
If you ever check out the original , yeah, they nailed it! The girl can sing anything from Ozzy, to Mettalica, Dio, to Iron Maiden, even Janis Joplin.
also they have some awesome original music
This sounds very much like the original. I really like this band made up of siblings. I would also suggest watching crazy train on the Santa Monica pier and enter sandman along with a couple of their originals.
More Liliac! Great young band. With monumental talent. Cover or original they haven't a bad song in their catalog
It's liliac brother. And the youngsters stand alone .Respect
The Fangs (Liliac Fans) have been filling you in on some details already, but Really all you need to know, is they are amazing at everything they do. Pick anything... Old, new, cover original, Vlogs, Tv shows & interviews, etc.. You will be sucked in, just like the rest of us. Good clean wholesome youth, with good moralistic parents, sharing what they love with the world. Keep going please! Thank you!
May I recommend seeing their original "Mars" live 2019, "We Are The Children" "Sail Away" plus their covers.
Their originals do nothing for me
"Ride the tiger" is escaping through drug use.
This cover sounds pretty close to Ronny's original.
Liliac is a very good band, brothers and sisters.
Have a great day.
YES !.... more LILIC please , great reaction. \m/

Interesting cover... Never heard it before... its pretty damn close
You really should listen to more liliac. They are very good. Look at their America’s got talent audition.
Intuitive reaction. Nicely done. Liliac… Family band, all siblings. Dad is the producer. Thanks for this. If you want to see them do a great original, recommend “Nothing”. Can’t really go wrong with anything they’ve done.
They kick butt when it comes to the covers, but like Ron says, they do great originals! "Mystery" is another original you should check out.
OMG, Nothing is my favorite. But 3 minutes too short.( I know radio )
Yes, Please react to Liliac's Originals & Their covers to Janice Joplin, Joan Jett, Metallica, Megadeath, Ozzy Osborne, Iron Maiden, Kiss&, Etc.... I want to hear Everyone's reactions. Because they are 5 siblings + Papa & Mama - Liliac. They are Independently financing their "Own Rock band - Liliac." Ages: 13-22. They are Impressive!! Look at their early start!

Band is pronounced Lily Ack. They are really good
GREAT FAMILY GROUP! FANTASTIC in concert! ✌️❤️🔥🎶😎
This was an amazing cover of an iconic rock song!!
This is the cover that got the attention of Vince Appice, Dio's former drummer, and Wendy Dio, Ronnie James Dio's widow. They are both now huge supporters of this band, especially Vince. They and their Dad are the primary video "team", the lead guitar player does the video editing and they have greatly improved their video capabilities as later videos will show.
I never get tired of listening to Liliac's cover of Holy Diver! Liliac has many offerings, you should check them out a little more.
They just killed a cover of last in line too check it out some time
A church is probably one of the most standard backdrops for a metal video. Right up there with castles, factories, parking garages, and abandoned houses.
They're a family band of brothers and sisters and are the best rock band out there. There father does all of the recording.
Rock on and Rock Hard!
They are great, and it is pronounced Lily-ak
yeah, they nailed this song, perfect.................period. These kids have so much talent, RO&RH!!!
I was not expecting to see Liliac on a reaction video. A few years back, they made a little splash on social media, as clearly their musical chops are there, and their singer is immensely talented. Glad to see they are not just a flash in the pan.
And yes...they nailed the cover.
Even if this is not your type of music, there is no denying their incredible talent. Great honest reaction. 👍

Dang, great cover by them. They most definitely did the song justice.
Mars live.. this is just the way they sound. They are amazing
Try their cover of enter sandman her voice is perfect for it
How did I miss this one? I've suggested the HELL out of these guys. Check out their original song Sail Away or their new cover of Seven Nation Army.
This is a family band. They're amazing.
Dio would be very proud of his heritage R.I.P. All musicians at its best. You can fell, that singer Melody is a great fan of Ronnie James Dio.
You’ve got to check out their original stuff sail away is an amazing song and video
It is amazing,the original is awesome and these guys do justice in every state of it
Great reaction, i have now added this band on Spotify!
Please react to dio. It just needs to be done . Holy diver .rainbow in the dark . Last in line.. just do it . You won't be sad.
They are fantastic ! Everything they do is awesome , originals and covers . When they did The Last In Line for the Dio cancer benefit , the got the song and we're given 7 days to learn it and have the video done for the benefit . They finished it in 6 days !
LiLiac is the best Fang Metal Rock Band out there you should also listen to Crazy Train, Chain of Thorns, Crazy Nights, Mars, Nothing, We are the Children, Queen of Hearts , Master of Destruction, Sail Away (LiLiac's Ballad) !
You should see the original with dio to really appreciate them they do a fantastic job. The lead singer melody idolizesdio and has his movements down to a science. These guys are excellent. That original music is good too

the band is not named after the flower, The correct Pronunciation is("Lily-ack" named after a Romanian bat! The band is managed by their father the parents are from Romania but live here in USA
these kids KILLED this. Amazing cover.
It's a very close cover. However... there's only one RJD (RIP). They deserve to be very proud of this nonetheless.
They are all siblings and their father is a music producer. Giving them a professional edge on quality.
It's bang on. Very VERY good.
Great band! I suggest you do a reaction to their original, " Mars live in Cummings Georgia ". It really showcases their talent.
try nothing or dancing in the dark, chain of thorns originals or Rainbow in the dark cover you'll love them all
I just caught you. Loved your true reaction not knowing the artist or genre much. This is a family band. This is kind of the middle of there current ages.

MeloDio! 🤘💖🤘
It is spot on the original!!!!🙂
I hope you check out their cover of Crazy Train!
Also, I would love to see you react to Killswitch Engage's cover of Holy Diver too!
It's a family band, yes. All of them are brothers and sisters. I recently had "Liliac' on my Podcast show. It's on my channel. Melody is an amazing vocalist. They're managed by their father. The original was written by the late Ronnie James Dio. His drummer recently reached out to Liliac and they've since become friends and have worked together. They have some original content as well. React to their song called "Nothing" and also "Sail Away" both originals.
you got to listen to their song "we are the childern"
This is _very_ faithful to the original. Even her diction, enunciation and stage mannerisms are very close to Dio.
They did a great job.
My dad was a big Dio fan. A few years before he passed my brother and I took him to deep purple, dio, and scorpions concert for his birthday. Was a awesome concert. Great cover, takes me back.
Very well balanced I enjoyed this.
Nice Reaction Sir.. Just the beginning.. You have a very long rabbit hole to go down... Try Nothing or Mars live next... Best wishes from France..
Perfect intuitive reaction. You certainly have good taste, feelings and knowledge in music. Thank you for posting this!
PS. Subscribed, of course :)
I like the video the way it is and the way they do theirs.
One of their best covers is another Ronnie James Dio song, Rainbow in the Dark. It is amazing.
Thanks for sharing ljs
Great reaction. You have a new subscriber. More Liliac please. Mars live in Cummings Georgia. You will be blown away. It's an original song
Very very good cover.
Even before they tackled Holy DIver, I always said she was the female version of Ronnie James Dio
Awesome cover!!!!!
This is an excellent cover of Holy Diver, but I gotta throw in with other people saying you should absolutely check out some Dio in the future, man is one of the legends of metal. I'm partial to Man on the Silver Mountain and Give Her the Gun, as well as the original Holy Diver.
Checkout The Warning. There a young lady power rock trio. Ages 21,19 &16. Their latest release Evolve is a banger. They are opening for the Foo Fighters this fall. They are going to be on Metallicas Black album tribute release in September. BTW ShaunTrack RUclipsr from Spain did a collaboration with The Warning of Evolve live from his studio. Check it out. Thank you
VERY much so sounds like the original. Their dad is a music producer.
First you need to hear original song Holy Diver from DIO..then this cover...and Dio is our metal icon and King..please check song Sail Away from Liliac...you then much love them
You could have picked any song they do original or cover and wanted to look for more . And there is a lot . Buckle up and enjoy the ride .
Songs more of a poem; holy diver is a Christlike savior. Dio literally translates to God
Ronnie James Dio is her idol and he died of cancer and this was a tribute to him
It's an awesome cover they have more songs that they do plus the original s
Its better than the original in my opinion
just like you, i have learned dio by watching these amazing kids. i didnt grow up being a fan of ronnie james dio but melody here is a huge fan of his and loves to cover his music. they do great covers and awesome originals try mars live from cummings ga and sailaway those are 2 originals that will show their true talents.

The family originally lived in Seattle, but eventually moved to Santa Monica area where they performed on the Pier every weekend. But now they live in Georgia as of late 2020. In their video for Mystery they used the Georgia Guide Stones as a backdrop, which are located out in the country east of Atlanta.
Now then, about Dio. Ronnie James Dio is, or shall I say, was an old school Metal vocalist going back to the 70s. He sang for Rainbow, Black Sabbath, and his own solo career under the name Dio. Holy Diver was the title track to his debut album, going back to 1983. Do yourself a favor and look up the original and then compare to Liliac'x cover of it, and you'll find that it's spot on....as are all their covers. Why? Because well, first of all, Melody, the vocalist is a huge fan of Dio and she draws her influence from him, and second, due to her raspy singing voice she can mimick many male vocalists depending on the band they're covering. That said, their Originals are also Extremely good as well, if not better than their covers. If you wanna blow up your channels views, and subscribers, do more Liliac songs and you'll see your channel grow big time.
so you think theyre young here....go back to when they were the cristeas....mere babies.....you have long journey ahead of you if you keep following them to their originals.....my personal picks....the trooper(iron maiden cover), i hate myself for loving you(joan jett cover), nothing(original kick ass rocker), sail away(original ballad)...just my 2cents
They did a great job performing this song. Took me back to when I saw Dio sing it. RIP DIO
They're the real Partridge family of metal.
They did an excellent job with this cover, to be sure. I strongly suggest their cover of Metallica's Master of Puppets and Joan Jett's I Hate Myself for Loving You. Killer performances that allows one to see the full extent of the singer's remarkable range.
They are outstanding🤘 her voice , the solo in this guitarr is Amazing !! The original Dio could not do it better !!
This is a fantastic cover. Their cover of crazy train is just as impressive, maybe more so, because they were 2 yrs younger. If you're going to react to a cover, it might be a good idea to hear the original first. The ability to compare would be a big part of the reaction. I got chills on my arms within the first 30 seconds of this song. Most likely because it was so near perfect that i instantly thought of how much Ronny James Dio would enjoy it if he was still with us
Not bad for kids! You should totally listen to Dio's original version though...he's a rock GOD!
It,s better/Love her voice!
Dude,were ate you from I'm guessing another time period .
This band is great 👍and yes they are keeping the old music
Your reaction to Liliac was 10 months ago, more or less, why have you not done more reactions to this fantastic band. They have more great covers (one being Master of Puppets) and originals i.e, Mars, Dancing in the dark, Sail Away and others. ❤️❤️❤️
