I just wanted to thank you guys, from the bottom of my heart for taking your time and doing this... As soon as it popped up on my feed i cried... Our daughter is back home... She is opening up a little, i know its going to be a long road... I struggled when i was her age and still fall back into that now... Her mother and i would do anything for her.. I just wanted to let you know it was much appreciated...thank you very much because i know this is a touchy and polarizing subject. people think it'll never happen to me or my kids but the way the worlds going right now with full access to everything through social media and internet, etc... Its happening alot... There were 20 kids in the center with my daughter and it hurts to see that young generation think that their lives mean nothing and the world wouldn't be losing anything with them not being here... THE WORLD NEEDS THEM...AND THEY NEED TO KNOW IT... Thank you again very much....
Mark Gaspidarevik much respect to them for taking their time.. They couldve rolled past my comment and said nothing.. Instead they pinned it and did this video... Very thankful right now shes home and no respect needed for me, im doing what a dad should do....
William Drake , Hey man just wanted to let you know I went through the exact same thing 3 years ago. Not gonna lie, it hasn't been easy, but things have gotten so much better. My daughter has completely turned her life around. It is possible! Stay strong bro
Someone should've mentioned a little history of Suicidal Tendencies for you guys. First,Mike Muir is the only lasting member of the band with 30 or so previous members he IS Suicidal Tendencies. Second,noone mentioned that these guys were banned from playing shows in L.A. in 1987 due to the violence and basically riots associated with their shows(they couldn't be insured as a band because of all the damage). These guys came up in a time before the web and still gained mass attention because they were different and great. They had thier own sound as a hardcore punk act and with the addition of Rocky George excelled into being an incredible thrash metal band.Rocky broke down racial barriers and stereotypes in metal. There were no colors in Suicidal,it didn't matter if you were black,white,Latino whatever,it was about the music. Third,this band has stood the test of time. They just released a brand new album(2017)and have added Dave Lombardo from Slayer on the drums!!! 1982-2017 that's 35 years of awesome punk/metal Psycho Mike has given us. I absolutely love what you guys do and wish there were more free thinkers like yourselves in this world. Keep it up. Suicidal 4~LIFE
Great statement. Must add it really has been over 40 years since Suicidal Tendencies was created by Mike Muir. The idea came to him in school and started.late 70s. They were often called Thrash, off of the Thrash Punk/Skate Punk that was raging in the area. Pre Thrash Metal that dropped to just Thrash. SO, Metallica is really not first Thrash band. Just first Thrash Metal. ST are often said to be The Originators especially also hailing from Venice where extreme skateboarding started. Mike's brother was also an original Z-Boys so he was there from the beginning and got to play a lot of the parties from the start. Thus all the local support they got which spread around the underground rapidly. I got a tape for my mother's friend who visited the area in 1980. I played it for all of my friends here around Philly, who loved it. Then to our surprise a lot of our worldly Tape Trading compilations also included them. Their evolution and vastness is amazing. I am inclined to the Metal years, but love their rollercoastering span. Truly does break down barriers and come deep from within the heart. Cannot count how many times I saw them. 87 was a great year in my PA/NJ/NY & DE/MD area though. Went to shows night after night. All varied & NEVER DISAPPOINTED! Maybe thanks to la banning them? Glad to say I got to know Mike personally and beyond the music saving my life on several occasions, Mike helped me himself. I have met a lot of so called stars. But Mike Muir has got to be my favorite. One of the greats. And now with Dave Lombaro! Just need Rocky George back. I can not imagine the music that would pour out of that combo. Dive into some of what Mike has been suppressing & exploded bits of their youth out again.
spot on brother. they were banned for a minute . think that hollywood palladium show that rioted in i cant remember late 86 early 87 was the city councils last straw. used to get punks and metal heads and even a few cholos at their gigs and back then the punk and metal scenes did not mix very well at all. epitome of an underground band. true originators of thrash metal skate punk and deserve a spot in the rock n roll hall of fame right next to the ramones imo.
One of the most awesome and emotional ever, in music. For me it is a favorite. I just watched a video of Rocky George performing this live. Outstanding!
I was angry kid and Suicidal Tendencies pretty much saved my life. Now I'm a husband and dad and am thankful that this music was there to understand me when it seemed no one else did. Glad his kid is ok. Sometimes words like in this song can help people cope.
I hope you guys realize how huge a thing you did here. As someone who suffers from depression and PTSD, I can confirm that when someone reaches out to you like this, it can mean the world, it can even sometimes mean the difference between life and death. The fact that you care, you took the time, you reached out, it says a lot about your character as human beings. Right now problems like depression are proliferating more than ever, and luckily, people are starting to have more outlets and ways to find help, but it's still far, far from where things need to be. People like you help make the difference needed to get people through those hard times, every bit as much as the bands we listen to and the songs you're creating content about. I already loved your content and thought you were really intelligent, entertaining dudes, but now my respect for you has gone through the roof. I really hope you guys are doing this for a long while and are successful, healthy and happy in all of your ventures. Much respect and gratitude.
At the end of the Heavy Emotional version video for this song. it is written on a paper "sometimes the hardest thing to admit is that someone really does care" So true! Mike Muir always has had a way to reach out and make me feel like I was not so alone. Alone is also one of my favorite songs by them. Mike even personally helped me out. Amazing guy. If anyone is ever feeling depressed I think they should listen to the band. So many are put off by the name but they don't understand. Like how would he be doing this for so many years if he did not find a way to keep pushing on as we must. They are widely known mainly by name only unfortunately. They never got the notoriety that they truly deserve. I can only hope that third day will come as they are one of the most deserving bands in the world. Hope that ST continues to help people as they helped me. Best to you all
I'm a black guy raised on metal...i was known as a big ST fan in high school and this album produced "Trip at the Brain" ...faster and crunchier...i used lyrics for my senior quote...check it out
Trippin Trippin Trippin... Gotta gotta take gotta take a trip from this place ... Gotta gotta take a trip get away from the human race.. Hell yeah bro! Great mention
So glad you did this song, especially since you did it for William. This is one of the most important songs of my life. I got this album the day after I got out of the hospital for my own suicide attempt back in 1988.After listening to the album and lyrics it was the 1st time I realized that other people had these feelings too and that I wasn't alone. It was a very comforting feeling. They became my favorite band and as you can see from my avatar I REALLY got into them. Great reaction video!
@William Drake. Thank God your daughter is back home an she's ok, best thing is that she opened up an spoke. Don't know the situation, but she opened up to you guys and that's a start and giving the situation a precious chance for you guys to help her! That's a very fragile age for anyone. Nowadays is really though for kids, because of social media, bulling and crap that shows on tv that sends the wrong message for the youth. Just read some comments here and some people found a relief by sports. I went through a breakup with my ex and it was painful after 8 year relationship. My relief was the music. She is going to be alright you'll see. Why? Because she knows mom and dad loves her. Love is a very powerful thing. God bless!
You guys do exactly what everyone should do when it comes to listening music. Pay 100% attention to the music, no distractions at all, pay close attention to the lyrics and the relationship between lyrics and music, pay close attention to every little detail in the song. Man, that's what listening music is all about. That's why you guys get to understand all this different genres of music, and I think that is really cool.
Some people do not understand the power of music. Reggae music centers me and helps me relax and tune out the outside world. I have always suffered from depression and anxiety. I never got to the point where I wanted to end my life, but I reached the point where I didn't care. My friends and I all had sport cars and motorcycles and we did some stupid things. I'm amazed that we are all still alive. Although one lost his leg in an accident. Not until seeing my family at my brother, mother, and aunt's funeral in a two year span, did I relize how important life is.
We all have to hit that point where we wake up a see how precious life is, glad you shared man! Everyone is different when it comes to music, but at least we can agree that music in general does have power to reach us and help us.
Same thing... i listen "darker" music if i'm depressed.. ICP - Fuck the world used to my goto music every day after work when i was really low... bit better now, haven't listened that song in over a year.
Get Em Jones music can be the most powerful art form. Unfortunately people misunderstand it when it is a genre or style they don't like. I am pretty open to most genres and I hear questions like "why do you listen to angry sounding music" when I listen to music with the hint that the music will make me angry because it sounds angry to them. Music is a great outlet and I 100% agree with your original comment
Phil Graves He has never got the credit for the guitarist he is. Not only a smoking player but an innovator. It's good to see other people recognize it.
Lots of respect for you guys for doing this video. Not only did the song have powerful messages but your reaction and breaking it down and letting us know that people do go through things like this was mind opening. I can identify with that feeling of hiding what i'm feeling cuz I feel like it's my responsibility and also I contribute it to how I grew up around people where you can't show your "soft" side. Love the song and how it helped William through tough times and great insight you guys gave on this one.
Mike from suicidal tendencies is probably one of the coolest guys to listen to him speak. He's very down to earth and is always extending a helping hand to people.
Another great song by Suicidal Tendencies is You Can't Bring Me Down. I truly enjoy you guy's video! I recently hit rough patch, but finally getting back into my groove. This video definitely cheered me up. Keep up the great work! P.S...I HIGHLY suggest you guys check out Punk It Up by Infectious Grooves. Same singer as Suicidal Tendencies 😊
You Can't Bring Me Down was my mantra as a teenager. That song is a severely overlooked metal classic, and a strong, STRONG message for all young people growing up.
I've been binge watching your guys vids for a little while now, but the fact that you guys did this because one of your fans is in a rough spot and this was his request, awesome. Immediately subscribed.
Have had this song in the back of my head for the past twenty years.... SO appreciate you guys showing the acknowledgement and respect to the silent pain too many feel, but never talk about
Thats Rocky George for you slamming on that solo, man. With a name like that you wouldn't believe how positive they are lyrically. And musically speaking, MAN!! They don't disappoint. Late 80's /early 90's Suicidal is unstoppable. I recommend sticking with this band for a couple more vids. Check out You Can't Bring Me Down. I think it's their most epic song. Great jobs guys. Open minded for life!
This hit me hard man. As someone who suffers from depression for years this is one song that helped me through some really rough times. So thank you for that. To William Drake im glad things are better now. Second, this a perfect song to showcase to those who still believe that Black people and Metal are a weird combo because that lead? Yup! Black guy who did it and it was fantastic!! Anyways still giving mad love to you guys and the rest of the LIV family. If anyone reads this and feels they have no one to talk to feel free to look me up guys or just shoot a reply. Im here for you all Also GWAR War is all we know. Keeping true to my word of mentioning them in every comment i post :) All love guys. Keep it it!!
William Drake lol both are good tracks no doubt, I just think War is all we know was their real transition to a heavier style. And the arrangements are fantastic. Its totally worth a review. Plus it s GWAR! You cant really go wrong either way lol
Cool of you guys to do this for a fan. You guys are awesome with the fan/comment interactions. I'd love to see you guys check out another ST song, "You Can't Bring Me Down." More of a big middle-finger to the world where they tear it up.
you guys are amazing! keep it up! this song runs so deep for me. i cant begin to explain the hell i was going through when i first heard this a s a child. i had no one. when i heard this it was such a salve on my soul to know that there were people out there that felt the same way. it was the first time i ever felt as though i was not alone. since then music has been a constant source of peace and hope for me, whether its metal, old school country, or underground hip hop. thanks for this fellas. rock on!
MUCH respect for doing this song and for the reasons you did it... absolutely inspiring for everyone subscribed to this channel...these two fellas continue to impress!
When I was a teenager I was in a very VERY dark place for several reasons. I honestly didn't want to live. I found ST in the middle of it all and it truly helped me through it all. People asked me how as they really couldn't see how. I really can't explain it completely, but there were a couple of songs of theirs that didn't try to gloss over or attempt to suppress the depression but they had lyrics I could relate to that helped me realize that I wasn't alone. My crazy thoughts weren't unique and others have gone through the same battles as I was. Sometimes all it takes is having something to relate to just to get you through the moment. I know it's weird, but it really doesn't matter what others think - it's only about what matters to you and what helps you overcome.
My heart goes out to him, no parent should have to burry a kid! So sad that kids are taking there lives :( having my own close in counter with my 19 year old she was going through depression then 2 days ago was in a bad car accident but thank god she is alive with a metal rod in her leg & head trauma 🙏praying for anyone who feels they aren’t worth living because you are !!
You guys are spot on ! Well done. I am a lifelong member of the S.T. Army. This band and this song in itself has gotten me through countless battles of depression. Mike's life's experiences were told through his lyrics. Still today, I play guitar as an outlet and this song is my go to song to release the pressures of life and it's setbacks. Rocky George is incredible. My all time favorite guitarist. Don't know where or if I'd even be here today had it not been for S.T. in my life as a young man and even as an adult fighting my way through this crazy thing we call life. Peace to all and long live S.T. ... JOIN THE ARMY ... THE S.T. ARMY !!!
Holy shit. Not watched the video yet, but I just want to say thank you for this. This song is extremely important in my life. Suicidal Tendencies has always been a place I can go to when times are hard. They make me laugh, they make me cry, but most importantly, They make me feel alive. Will watch this now. Tears are already starting and I haven't pushed play yet.
Love mike and his Lyrics. Very sensible guy. I was born on the 13th and he always says that number 13 is lucky. And So do I. I love the number. If you look closely at him and the band there is normally a number 13 around. Check out Emotion Number 13.
Wow so glad you guys did Suicidal Tendencies and this song helped get me through tough times when I was younger and even still! I also had my close calls with death and even attempted suicide a long time ago but even the life I lived in my past was suicidal but killer song!My best friend committed suicide last year but its a permanent solution to a temporary problem even if it takes long its better to hang in there and try to get through it no matter what you have to do but easier said than done at times!!Stay strong and Thanks you guys!Peace Out!!One of my favorite tunes!!!
Man I love your channel. I've binge watched your episodes ever since I discovered it from Reddit. And to cover S.T.? Amazing. I'm a old fuck (43) and I have listed to Suicidal since I was a teenager. What a great band. Thank you for what you guys are doing. Building bridges/awareness between musical styles will lead to the same between races and socioeconomic classes.
i would not be here if not for SUICIDAL TENDENCIES. Mike Muir even took time to talk with me personally. they have a "HEAVY EMOTIONAL" version of this song too. at the end he writes ~} "Sometimes the hardest thing to admit is that someone really does care" ♡ all about relating & feeling not so am"ALONE" (also another great song by them... one day...? the few albums with Rocky George were their METAL YEARS. be good to slip through n sample the ALBUMS for one episode even?
Thanks guys. Even though she might be embarrassed, seeing this might show her the love and care her father has, and how much impact she can have on people she’s never met. And how much impact they can have for her. Just like music does. I hope she is better. And, you gentlemen, I hope you are both well.
Loved you guys before, but this is on a totally different level! Much respect for doing this for the individual mentioned! I was actually typing about how we use this dark music as a coping mechanism, but as always you guys were all over it! I’m not a hard drug addict, but there is a song out there that really touches on that. Wake Up by Madseason. The lyrics are written to himself! Really heavy shit! It’s melancholy at it finest, so don’t react to it unless you’re ready for some deep dark helplessness! The song really helped me, but not for everyone.
Thank you for this. The Tendencies have an anger and a beauty in them like no other. This song got me through some of the worst times I had and I'm glad you were able to share it with your followers. ML&R
I am happy and amazed of seeing so much support and compassion specially in the comments section in RUclips. I have a daughter as well and I cannot imagine what you going through William Drake, I wish the best for you and your family from Argentina. Lost in Last Vegas I love your channel, you are two nice crazy fellas!! I laugh out loud with you guys! All the best.
Hey guys. I just found this video and I want to thank you. I know I'm a bit late for this to be current, but this band helped to save my life when this song was new, and I think it's an amazing act of kindness for you to help people realise that there are loads of people that can relate to these feelings. This is a subject that people talk about but if you have not dealt with depression yourself, it can be very hard to relate the person that is depressed. This song and several others on this album have been the thing I've used to get my friends to understand. Hopefully you have helped someone else with this. I am really happy to see that things seem to have gone well for William and his family also. I hope his daughter is doing better these days.
Nice gesture, gentleman. I think it's worth pointing out that the guitarist on this song is a man named Rocky George, and he was one of the first African-American people to have a real impact in the world of heavy metal with his playing. He was a member of Suicidal Tendencies from 1984 to 1995, and I think a lot of people would point to him as someone who helped tear down racial barriers in metal. He's still widely revered as a guitarist today.
Used to get a lot of static for listening to these guys because of their name, but they helped me and other friends get through tough times, Suicidal for life!
Just wanted to leave a quick comment. I loved that you guys did this. I just discovered your channel and this shows that you guys actually listen to your subscribers. Keep up the good work and thanks for having an open mind.
Suicidal Tendencies- Institutionalized, for damn sure a must listen. Y'alls channel is so damn great and refreshing. People don't need to relegate themselves to just one genre of music. You miss out on so much good stuff by being that way. Keep up the great work!
Listening to some of these reviews ...and haven't listened to some of these songs in a while...has made me look at some of them in a different light. So thanks for that. I tend to think similarly to different genres of music. May not like certain groups or singers but I can appreciate talent
I watch this video several times a week, I’m usually not someone who’s touched by videos but this one touches me deeply and inspires me to try to be a better man, thank you guys for your honesty and your love for music
I, as everyone, love how seriously you took the gravity of this recommendation, and in following, the music. It was not overstated or undercut; I grew up on this band, and later dealt with depression, still do, but never saw it from an outside perspective. So, thanks. I think music is a therapy for many, and needs more exposure. You're helping to spread that love and power.
James Cameron ST is criminally under remembered and recognized in the Metal and Music media outlets. They're a truly original band and were WAY ahead of their time. The musicianship was among the best to have ever graced the scene. People just couldn't accept the LA cholo punk look for whatever reason. Skin tight spandex was totally acceptable, but not cuffed jeans and flipped up bills. Those who know, love this band.
I go through depression since I was 13 and declare medical depress and with anxiety but this band had got me through my tendencies. thank you for covering this song.
i don't typically watch reactions but yall got my sub, always putting out actually enjoyable critical videos instead of JUST watching or listening to a song or video and not saying shit. plus all this stuff supporting your subs, respect. deep respect. \m/ metal music got me through a lot, especially growing up the way i did, so this was really awesome to see you guys do, nothing but love from canada.
Suicidal Tendencies definitely have that "something different" aspect to their brand of metal. Multiple members came from gangs in the Venice California area. The singer, Mike, has a cholo style in the clothes he wears. The guitar player, Rocky, is freaking amazing. He's one of the prominent African American guitarists to hit the scene in the 80's. The bass player is now the bass player for Metallica. I credit him as the reason Metallica has returned to the classic metal style of their earlier albums.
To be clear; not the bassist on this record. This is Bob Heathcote and it’s his only record with them. Before him it was Louichie Mayorga. After that they had Rob Trujillo who went on to be the current bassist of Metallica.
He is getting down on that guitar... That's Rocky one of the best guitarists in the world in his genra. A lot of black men have waled on the guitar...HE IS JUST ANOTHER GREAT ONE.
Much respect to you guys. The relationship between the two of you and your audience is what makes this channel special. William Drake, I pray for your daughter, you and your whole family and circle of friends. I know full well how the slightest pain to our children is amplified in us as parents. I can barely imagine the difficulty you and your family are going through, and I sincerely hope you all find hope and strength in family, friends, and whatever spirituality you adhere to.
This was really cool for you guys to do for this individual and it shows a lot of class. I would like to also add that there are a lot of really great music from the band Suicidal Tendencies that you should check out (Send Me Your Money & Waking the Dead) I know a lot about them and this doesn't reflect the best of their music but I hope you will check out more of them.
Posted this back in your Slayer and Master of Puppets Reaction videos, I'll post it here again if you don't mind :3 : Hey guys, I'm a musician who leans a bit more to the rock and metal spectrum of music and I really love your reactions to metal music. I'll admit, at first I was a bit put off by your pause-resume style of reviewing, but I have grown to appreciate it and look forward to you guys reacting to particular sections of songs that I know are amazing. Anyway, in case you guys didn't know this before, there is actually a term called 'The Big 4' which was/is used to describe the biggest 4 Thrash metal bands during the 80s and early 90s (and since Thrash was the biggest metal subgenre then, by extension, they were the biggest 4 metal bands at a point of time too), and you guys have reacted to 3 out of the 4 so far (Metallica, Megadeth and Slayer) so I thought it would be great if you could react to the 4th band, Anthrax too. Admittedly, they were the smallest of the Big 4 but they were highly successful and influential too. And interesting fact for you guys, they are even credited with being the first ones to combine rap with rock with first their comedy song I am the Man and then their collaboration with Public Enemy on the track Bring the Noise. If you guys want to check out their classic stuff though, I'd recommend the songs 'INDIANS', 'CAUGHT IN A MOSH', "I AM THE LAW'(which is based on Judge Dredd, the comic), but if you don't mind going through some lesser mainstream stuff, 'BELLY OF THE BEAST' has one of the coolest rhythm shifts I have ever heard in a song while 'KEEP IT IN THE FAMILY' has some really awesome lyrics about racism and xenophobia. Please check these guys out :)
I have been watching your videos here and there and always enjoyed your humor and way to break down tunes. Today I subscribed, just 'cause you guys are keeping it real and I love what you did here. Keep it up! And big hugs to William and his family!
Very cool of you guys to do this for someone. Suicidal Tendencies helped me through some rough patches in my life. Especially when I was a teenager. Good stuff.
I just wanted to thank you guys, from the bottom of my heart for taking your time and doing this... As soon as it popped up on my feed i cried... Our daughter is back home... She is opening up a little, i know its going to be a long road... I struggled when i was her age and still fall back into that now... Her mother and i would do anything for her.. I just wanted to let you know it was much appreciated...thank you very much because i know this is a touchy and polarizing subject. people think it'll never happen to me or my kids but the way the worlds going right now with full access to everything through social media and internet, etc... Its happening alot... There were 20 kids in the center with my daughter and it hurts to see that young generation think that their lives mean nothing and the world wouldn't be losing anything with them not being here... THE WORLD NEEDS THEM...AND THEY NEED TO KNOW IT...
Thank you again very much....
respect brother!
Mark Gaspidarevik much respect to them for taking their time.. They couldve rolled past my comment and said nothing.. Instead they pinned it and did this video... Very thankful right now shes home and no respect needed for me, im doing what a dad should do....
Love, prayers, good vibes, and peace to you and yours, brother!
William Drake , Hey man just wanted to let you know I went through the exact same thing 3 years ago. Not gonna lie, it hasn't been easy, but things have gotten so much better. My daughter has completely turned her life around. It is possible! Stay strong bro
William Drake wish you the best buddy!
Mike Muir from suicidal is a lyrical mastermind suicidal was such a underrated band
Lee Ramirez top 10 best metal acts ever.
"You Cant Bring Me Down" is the most undervalued metal anthem of all-time, IMO
I think the world of Mike, Rocky, And mostly Robert. I regret not knowing that awesome drummer's name. He did rock.
What do you mean was !!!! Mike Muir is still preaching the church of suicidal strong in 2019 ST 4 life !!!!!!!
duh... Got me here ! GO CYCO!
Rocky George doesn't get near enough recognition.
The man is a master of his craft.
One of the most underrated rhythm guitarists in metal and he played with such feeling!
@@suprchickn7745 he was a lead guitar and played all or almost all ST solos oO
Came to post this.
The Rock knew how to rock and still does...
People don’t notice his work in cro mags and it rots me to the core
Someone should've mentioned a little history of Suicidal Tendencies for you guys. First,Mike Muir is the only lasting member of the band with 30 or so previous members he IS Suicidal Tendencies. Second,noone mentioned that these guys were banned from playing shows in L.A. in 1987 due to the violence and basically riots associated with their shows(they couldn't be insured as a band because of all the damage). These guys came up in a time before the web and still gained mass attention because they were different and great. They had thier own sound as a hardcore punk act and with the addition of Rocky George excelled into being an incredible thrash metal band.Rocky broke down racial barriers and stereotypes in metal. There were no colors in Suicidal,it didn't matter if you were black,white,Latino whatever,it was about the music. Third,this band has stood the test of time. They just released a brand new album(2017)and have added Dave Lombardo from Slayer on the drums!!! 1982-2017 that's 35 years of awesome punk/metal Psycho Mike has given us. I absolutely love what you guys do and wish there were more free thinkers like yourselves in this world. Keep it up. Suicidal 4~LIFE
HELL YEAH, ONE OF MY FAVORITE BANDS!Was lucky enough to see them twice!
Great statement. Must add it really has been over 40 years since Suicidal Tendencies was created by Mike Muir. The idea came to him in school and started.late 70s.
They were often called Thrash, off of the Thrash Punk/Skate Punk that was raging in the area. Pre Thrash Metal that dropped to just Thrash. SO, Metallica is really not first Thrash band. Just first Thrash Metal. ST are often said to be The Originators especially also hailing from Venice where extreme skateboarding started.
Mike's brother was also an original Z-Boys so he was there from the beginning and got to play a lot of the parties from the start. Thus all the local support they got which spread around the underground rapidly. I got a tape for my mother's friend who visited the area in 1980. I played it for all of my friends here around Philly, who loved it. Then to our surprise a lot of our worldly Tape Trading compilations also included them.
Their evolution and vastness is amazing. I am inclined to the Metal years, but love their rollercoastering span. Truly does break down barriers and come deep from within the heart. Cannot count how many times I saw them. 87 was a great year in my PA/NJ/NY & DE/MD area though. Went to shows night after night. All varied & NEVER DISAPPOINTED! Maybe thanks to la banning them?
Glad to say I got to know Mike personally and beyond the music saving my life on several occasions, Mike helped me himself. I have met a lot of so called stars. But Mike Muir has got to be my favorite. One of the greats. And now with Dave Lombaro! Just need Rocky George back. I can not imagine the music that would pour out of that combo. Dive into some of what Mike has been suppressing & exploded bits of their youth out again.
Just saw em this past September.
Thanks for your perfect comment.
Only one correction: It's not Psycho, it's Cyco. ;-)
spot on brother. they were banned for a minute . think that hollywood palladium show that rioted in i cant remember late 86 early 87 was the city councils last straw. used to get punks and metal heads and even a few cholos at their gigs and back then the punk and metal scenes did not mix very well at all. epitome of an underground band. true originators of thrash metal skate punk and deserve a spot in the rock n roll hall of fame right next to the ramones imo.
The solo in this song is IMHO one of the greatest solos in thrash history. Criminally underrated.
Everything Rocky does is Gold🤘
Storm in my mind by possessed
One of the most awesome and emotional ever, in music. For me it is a favorite. I just watched a video of Rocky George performing this live. Outstanding!
FACTS
Rocky George is one of the most underrated guitarists ever. That man is a beast!
Eric Schips Rocky!
This is a classy move
I was angry kid and Suicidal Tendencies pretty much saved my life. Now I'm a husband and dad and am thankful that this music was there to understand me when it seemed no one else did. Glad his kid is ok. Sometimes words like in this song can help people cope.
I hope you guys realize how huge a thing you did here. As someone who suffers from depression and PTSD, I can confirm that when someone reaches out to you like this, it can mean the world, it can even sometimes mean the difference between life and death. The fact that you care, you took the time, you reached out, it says a lot about your character as human beings.
Right now problems like depression are proliferating more than ever, and luckily, people are starting to have more outlets and ways to find help, but it's still far, far from where things need to be. People like you help make the difference needed to get people through those hard times, every bit as much as the bands we listen to and the songs you're creating content about.
I already loved your content and thought you were really intelligent, entertaining dudes, but now my respect for you has gone through the roof. I really hope you guys are doing this for a long while and are successful, healthy and happy in all of your ventures. Much respect and gratitude.
Amen. Well said.
At the end of the Heavy Emotional version video for this song. it is written on a paper "sometimes the hardest thing to admit is that someone really does care" So true!
Mike Muir always has had a way to reach out and make me feel like I was not so alone. Alone is also one of my favorite songs by them. Mike even personally helped me out. Amazing guy.
If anyone is ever feeling depressed I think they should listen to the band. So many are put off by the name but they don't understand. Like how would he be doing this for so many years if he did not find a way to keep pushing on as we must.
They are widely known mainly by name only unfortunately. They never got the notoriety that they truly deserve. I can only hope that third day will come as they are one of the most deserving bands in the world.
Hope that ST continues to help people as they helped me. Best to you all
I'm a black guy raised on metal...i was known as a big ST fan in high school and this album produced "Trip at the Brain" ...faster and crunchier...i used lyrics for my senior quote...check it out
Trippin Trippin Trippin... Gotta gotta take gotta take a trip from this place ... Gotta gotta take a trip get away from the human race..
Hell yeah bro! Great mention
Metal has no border
@Benjamin Castillo For sure top 10 guitarists for me.
Yup love this album
Count me in as a vote for Trip At The Brain, Trip at the Brain!
...do you know what I'm sayin?
A lot of respect to you guys for showing that appreciation for your fans!
that was a definite cool surprise, ST is one of those bands that are hardcore originators
It's awesome that you guys actually care about your subscribers and read comments. Love your videos guys hope you blow up even more.
ST 'You can't bring me down' This is a staple that you guys truly need to experience.
Mattison Leaf the Bible of Suicidal!!!!!!
No doubt
absolutely, that song's got the complete package
"Who the hell you calling crazy?
You wouldn't know what crazy was if Charles Manson
...was eating Fruit Loops on your front porch"
You two guys are so down to earth and genuinely good dudes.
Mr.Mister Agreed. I am grateful for all this.
God bless these guys
Thanks for letting them know ..
Music makes the world go round.. 🤘😎
Please react to Suicidal Tendencies - You can't bring me down
You wouldn't know what crazy was if Charles Manson was eating fruit loops on your front porch!
Oh the irony in the title lol
Yeah, this would be a great song for them to review.
WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON AROUND HERE!!!
x Synarchist Right on my brother suicidal rules
So glad you did this song, especially since you did it for William. This is one of the most important songs of my life. I got this album the day after I got out of the hospital for my own suicide attempt back in 1988.After listening to the album and lyrics it was the 1st time I realized that other people had these feelings too and that I wasn't alone. It was a very comforting feeling. They became my favorite band and as you can see from my avatar I REALLY got into them. Great reaction video!
You guys are honestly the realest youtubers out there i really appreciate you guys.
they're incredible
"Yo Paul.....I appreciate you"
@William Drake. Thank God your daughter is back home an she's ok, best thing is that she opened up an spoke. Don't know the situation, but she opened up to you guys and that's a start and giving the situation a precious chance for you guys to help her! That's a very fragile age for anyone. Nowadays is really though for kids, because of social media, bulling and crap that shows on tv that sends the wrong message for the youth. Just read some comments here and some people found a relief by sports. I went through a breakup with my ex and it was painful after 8 year relationship. My relief was the music. She is going to be alright you'll see. Why? Because she knows mom and dad loves her. Love is a very powerful thing. God bless!
You guys do exactly what everyone should do when it comes to listening music. Pay 100% attention to the music, no distractions at all, pay close attention to the lyrics and the relationship between lyrics and music, pay close attention to every little detail in the song. Man, that's what listening music is all about. That's why you guys get to understand all this different genres of music, and I think that is really cool.
Buena bro
"You Can't Bring Me Down", "Alone", "Nobody Hears", and "Send Me Your Money" are also good tunes by Suicidal Tendencies.
Dont you give me your nothing
Institutionalized as well.
"Sorry" is one of the most emotional songs I've heard. Read the lyrics while listening.
"Nobody Hears" and generally the whole "The Art of Rebellion" album.
Wake the Dead
Some people do not understand the power of music. Reggae music centers me and helps me relax and tune out the outside world. I have always suffered from depression and anxiety. I never got to the point where I wanted to end my life, but I reached the point where I didn't care. My friends and I all had sport cars and motorcycles and we did some stupid things. I'm amazed that we are all still alive. Although one lost his leg in an accident. Not until seeing my family at my brother, mother, and aunt's funeral in a two year span, did I relize how important life is.
In my dark moments I listen even to darker music that brings me back to life. I think sometimes life could be a crutch for deformed mind.
Alexander Sexton I looked them up. Sounds good. Thanks.
We all have to hit that point where we wake up a see how precious life is, glad you shared man! Everyone is different when it comes to music, but at least we can agree that music in general does have power to reach us and help us.
Same thing... i listen "darker" music if i'm depressed.. ICP - Fuck the world used to my goto music every day after work when i was really low... bit better now, haven't listened that song in over a year.
Get Em Jones music can be the most powerful art form. Unfortunately people misunderstand it when it is a genre or style they don't like. I am pretty open to most genres and I hear questions like "why do you listen to angry sounding music" when I listen to music with the hint that the music will make me angry because it sounds angry to them. Music is a great outlet and I 100% agree with your original comment
Rocky George = Guitar God
Phil Graves need to be able like x500
Def one of the most underrated leads in metal ever
Phil Graves oh hell yeah
Phil Graves He has never got the credit for the guitarist he is. Not only a smoking player but an innovator. It's good to see other people recognize it.
You bring up great points. Mike Clark is great no doubt. Kudos
Lots of respect for you guys for doing this video. Not only did the song have powerful messages but your reaction and breaking it down and letting us know that people do go through things like this was mind opening. I can identify with that feeling of hiding what i'm feeling cuz I feel like it's my responsibility and also I contribute it to how I grew up around people where you can't show your "soft" side. Love the song and how it helped William through tough times and great insight you guys gave on this one.
Mike from suicidal tendencies is probably one of the coolest guys to listen to him speak. He's very down to earth and is always extending a helping hand to people.
Mike Miur is absolutely brilliant with lyrics. Rocky George on the solo is so fluid and bubbly. This song is so complete.
Also one of if the best performance of Robert Trujillo s career
Another great song by Suicidal Tendencies is You Can't Bring Me Down. I truly enjoy you guy's video! I recently hit rough patch, but finally getting back into my groove. This video definitely cheered me up. Keep up the great work! P.S...I HIGHLY suggest you guys check out Punk It Up by Infectious Grooves. Same singer as Suicidal Tendencies 😊
The whole suicidal catalogue got me through... You cant bring me down is definitely a fighting back, empowering song
You Can't Bring Me Down was my mantra as a teenager. That song is a severely overlooked metal classic, and a strong, STRONG message for all young people growing up.
You Can't Bring Me Down is the perfect ST song. More energy!
Anybody had any days lately where Charles Manson was eating fruit loops on their front porch?
Been asking for You can't bring me down. I love this song and YCBMD but for completly different reasons. They need to hear one of their upbeat songs
You guys are too awesome. Doing that for one of your viewers shows just what kind of people you are. You guys keep on rocking.
I've been binge watching your guys vids for a little while now, but the fact that you guys did this because one of your fans is in a rough spot and this was his request, awesome. Immediately subscribed.
I've never subscribed to a RUclips video in my life, but I've made my first exception here, that really is awesome of you guys!
Have had this song in the back of my head for the past twenty years....
SO appreciate you guys showing the acknowledgement and respect to the silent pain too many feel, but never talk about
" Sorry"and "the feelings back" are superb heart felt songs as well
Thats Rocky George for you slamming on that solo, man. With a name like that you wouldn't believe how positive they are lyrically. And musically speaking, MAN!! They don't disappoint. Late 80's /early 90's Suicidal is unstoppable. I recommend sticking with this band for a couple more vids. Check out You Can't Bring Me Down. I think it's their most epic song. Great jobs guys. Open minded for life!
Zeinzu Androy this whole album
Rocky plays with Fishbone now. Another band I'd love to see a reaction to.
Zeinzu Androy
100% amigo. Would love to see reactions to You Can't Bring me Down and Monopoly On Sorrow.
ST4LIFE
Remember that Rob is in Metallica now too. Doing a fine job. (Cliff was great, gone too soon)
This hit me hard man. As someone who suffers from depression for years this is one song that helped me through some really rough times. So thank you for that. To William Drake im glad things are better now.
Second, this a perfect song to showcase to those who still believe that Black people and Metal are a weird combo because that lead? Yup! Black guy who did it and it was fantastic!!
Anyways still giving mad love to you guys and the rest of the LIV family. If anyone reads this and feels they have no one to talk to feel free to look me up guys or just shoot a reply. Im here for you all
Also GWAR War is all we know. Keeping true to my word of mentioning them in every comment i post :) All love guys. Keep it it!!
Jay Despirited thank you...... And what about GWAR - GOR GOR
or GWARS cover of carry on my wayward son LOL
William Drake lol both are good tracks no doubt, I just think War is all we know was their real transition to a heavier style. And the arrangements are fantastic. Its totally worth a review. Plus it s GWAR! You cant really go wrong either way lol
Gwar would be great but listen to better songs like Any thing off ragnarok particularly none but the brave
STILL HERe FUCKERS! SPIRAL HAM FUCKER!
Jay Despirited For me, Rocky Georges is the most amazing guitarist ever.
I was busy for the weekend and came back to you guys past 100k! Free Thinkers unite! I'm still recommending Animals as Leaders "CAFO"
Cool of you guys to do this for a fan. You guys are awesome with the fan/comment interactions.
I'd love to see you guys check out another ST song, "You Can't Bring Me Down." More of a big middle-finger to the world where they tear it up.
you guys are amazing! keep it up! this song runs so deep for me. i cant begin to explain the hell i was going through when i first heard this a s a child. i had no one. when i heard this it was such a salve on my soul to know that there were people out there that felt the same way. it was the first time i ever felt as though i was not alone. since then music has been a constant source of peace and hope for me, whether its metal, old school country, or underground hip hop. thanks for this fellas. rock on!
Robert Martin i know where youre coming from... I listen to everything for the same reasons....
you perfectly explained why so many of us needed metal at the time when it came to us in our lives
Nice gesture by you guys. I'm sure it meant a lot him.
MUCH respect for doing this song and for the reasons you did it... absolutely inspiring for everyone subscribed to this channel...these two fellas continue to impress!
When I was a teenager I was in a very VERY dark place for several reasons. I honestly didn't want to live. I found ST in the middle of it all and it truly helped me through it all. People asked me how as they really couldn't see how. I really can't explain it completely, but there were a couple of songs of theirs that didn't try to gloss over or attempt to suppress the depression but they had lyrics I could relate to that helped me realize that I wasn't alone. My crazy thoughts weren't unique and others have gone through the same battles as I was. Sometimes all it takes is having something to relate to just to get you through the moment. I know it's weird, but it really doesn't matter what others think - it's only about what matters to you and what helps you overcome.
Loved seeing their reaction to Rocky, one of the greatest soloists in metal history.
Some of the most creative stuff to come from ST was on this album. The entire album is full of emotion. A truly underrated band.
Mad love and respect for doing this. Thoughts and prayers for William and his family
ALSO THAT SOLO THO
All I want is a Pepsi!
Rob Erickson ... just one Pepsi!
...and she wouldn't give it to me!
institutionalized
Just one pepsi...and they wouldn't give it to me!
Put me in the institution said it was the only solution to save me from the enemy myself
My heart goes out to him, no parent should have to burry a kid! So sad that kids are taking there lives :( having my own close in counter with my 19 year old she was going through depression then 2 days ago was in a bad car accident but thank god she is alive with a metal rod in her leg & head trauma 🙏praying for anyone who feels they aren’t worth living because you are !!
i hope she makes a full recovery
smokinnplatez thank you, much appreciated !
Prayers go out to yall
God bless your family and u.
You guys are spot on ! Well done. I am a lifelong member of the S.T. Army. This band and this song in itself has gotten me through countless battles of depression. Mike's life's experiences were told through his lyrics. Still today, I play guitar as an outlet and this song is my go to song to release the pressures of life and it's setbacks. Rocky George is incredible. My all time favorite guitarist. Don't know where or if I'd even be here today had it not been for S.T. in my life as a young man and even as an adult fighting my way through this crazy thing we call life. Peace to all and long live S.T. ... JOIN THE ARMY ... THE S.T. ARMY !!!
Holy shit.
Not watched the video yet, but I just want to say thank you for this.
This song is extremely important in my life. Suicidal Tendencies has always been a place I can go to when times are hard. They make me laugh, they make me cry, but most importantly, They make me feel alive.
Will watch this now. Tears are already starting and I haven't pushed play yet.
Love mike and his Lyrics. Very sensible guy.
I was born on the 13th and he always says that number 13 is lucky. And So do I. I love the number. If you look closely at him and the band there is normally a number 13 around.
Check out Emotion Number 13.
Wow so glad you guys did Suicidal Tendencies and this song helped get me through tough times when I was younger and even still! I also had my close calls with death and even attempted suicide a long time ago but even the life I lived in my past was suicidal but killer song!My best friend committed suicide last year but its a permanent solution to a temporary problem even if it takes long its better to hang in there and try to get through it no matter what you have to do but easier said than done at times!!Stay strong and Thanks you guys!Peace Out!!One of my favorite tunes!!!
You guys are phenomenal very cool and compassionate!
Man I love your channel. I've binge watched your episodes ever since I discovered it from Reddit.
And to cover S.T.? Amazing. I'm a old fuck (43) and I have listed to Suicidal since I was a teenager. What a great band.
Thank you for what you guys are doing. Building bridges/awareness between musical styles will lead to the same between races and socioeconomic classes.
i would not be here if not for SUICIDAL TENDENCIES. Mike Muir even took time to talk with me personally. they have a "HEAVY EMOTIONAL" version of this song too. at the end he writes ~} "Sometimes the hardest thing to admit is that someone really does care" ♡ all about relating & feeling not so am"ALONE" (also another great song by them... one day...? the few albums with Rocky George were their METAL YEARS. be good to slip through n sample the ALBUMS for one episode even?
Thanks guys. Even though she might be embarrassed, seeing this might show her the love and care her father has, and how much impact she can have on people she’s never met. And how much impact they can have for her. Just like music does. I hope she is better. And, you gentlemen, I hope you are both well.
Loved you guys before, but this is on a totally different level! Much respect for doing this for the individual mentioned! I was actually typing about how we use this dark music as a coping mechanism, but as always you guys were all over it! I’m not a hard drug addict, but there is a song out there that really touches on that. Wake Up by Madseason. The lyrics are written to himself! Really heavy shit! It’s melancholy at it finest, so don’t react to it unless you’re ready for some deep dark helplessness! The song really helped me, but not for everyone.
I love the way you broke down the lyrics. This is one of my favorite songs and albums. Amazing band!
This is an absolutely brilliant masterpiece by ST. Cannot say enough good things about this band, or this song. ST! ST! ST!
Thank you for this. The Tendencies have an anger and a beauty in them like no other. This song got me through some of the worst times I had and I'm glad you were able to share it with your followers. ML&R
Very underrated group.. Another nice review guys.
Love the way yo have so much empathy for the recommendation even though isn't my type of music
OH BTW, 100,000 SUBS! CONGRATS
PRYDE - Nuff Said
Rocky George is a guitar GOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Rodrigo Garay
So so true. Rocky George is a genius. His solo's are untouchable, peerless, incredible.
Rodrigo Garay criminally underrated!
Glenn Atkinson So right, I love Rocky, epic solo’s amazing riffs, great guitar God!!
Rocky George is one of the best ever!!!
I am happy and amazed of seeing so much support and compassion specially in the comments section in RUclips. I have a daughter as well and I cannot imagine what you going through William Drake, I wish the best for you and your family from Argentina. Lost in Last Vegas I love your channel, you are two nice crazy fellas!! I laugh out loud with you guys! All the best.
Suicidal Tendencies - Institutionalized
All I wanted was a Pepsi.
Will Vafuth all he wanted was a Pepsi
yeah, this song is awesome
You guys should react to Killing In The Name- Rage Against The Machine
ST great lyrics. Great band. One of my favs.
Y'all are stand up guys!
Class act guys. William, I'm glad to hear your daughter is working through things. Prayers to you all.
Hey guys. I just found this video and I want to thank you. I know I'm a bit late for this to be current, but this band helped to save my life when this song was new, and I think it's an amazing act of kindness for you to help people realise that there are loads of people that can relate to these feelings. This is a subject that people talk about but if you have not dealt with depression yourself, it can be very hard to relate the person that is depressed. This song and several others on this album have been the thing I've used to get my friends to understand. Hopefully you have helped someone else with this.
I am really happy to see that things seem to have gone well for William and his family also. I hope his daughter is doing better these days.
Nice gesture, gentleman. I think it's worth pointing out that the guitarist on this song is a man named Rocky George, and he was one of the first African-American people to have a real impact in the world of heavy metal with his playing. He was a member of Suicidal Tendencies from 1984 to 1995, and I think a lot of people would point to him as someone who helped tear down racial barriers in metal. He's still widely revered as a guitarist today.
Chris S rocky george was a god...
Mike Muir lyrical madman. This was my youth. Just Skate & survive.
Used to get a lot of static for listening to these guys because of their name, but they helped me and other friends get through tough times, Suicidal for life!
THIS ALBUM IS A MASTERPIECE! You two bring a smile to my face! Much love from South Philly
Rocky George one of the most underrated guitarists
Just wanted to leave a quick comment. I loved that you guys did this. I just discovered your channel and this shows that you guys actually listen to your subscribers. Keep up the good work and thanks for having an open mind.
Nevermore - The River Dragon Has Come
Death - Spirit Crusher
Mastodon - Colony of Birchmen
Evergrey - A Touch of Blessing
Nevermore - Emptiness Unobstructed brings it from the get go.
K L I feel like this godless endeavor would encapsulate nevermore better. IMO
Berkay Demirer Death would be too much for them to handle... it took me 15 days lol
Dreaming neon Black would be good. crazy meaning.
Dreaming neon black >>>>
Suicidal Tendencies- Institutionalized, for damn sure a must listen. Y'alls channel is so damn great and refreshing. People don't need to relegate themselves to just one genre of music. You miss out on so much good stuff by being that way. Keep up the great work!
Listening to some of these reviews ...and haven't listened to some of these songs in a while...has made me look at some of them in a different light. So thanks for that. I tend to think similarly to different genres of music. May not like certain groups or singers but I can appreciate talent
I watch this video several times a week, I’m usually not someone who’s touched by videos but this one touches me deeply and inspires me to try to be a better man, thank you guys for your honesty and your love for music
You guys are so objective & fair no matter what! LOVE you guys!
The good old days... This song is actually hitting me harder now, as an adult, then it did back when I listened to this as a young adolescent.
Ryan and George you guys are the best. Props for always going through the comments and looking out for your community. Peace
Lot of respect for you guys, beautiful gesture
Please react to Megadeth - Tornado of Souls
kreshBACON done
I, as everyone, love how seriously you took the gravity of this recommendation, and in following, the music. It was not overstated or undercut; I grew up on this band, and later dealt with depression, still do, but never saw it from an outside perspective. So, thanks. I think music is a therapy for many, and needs more exposure. You're helping to spread that love and power.
With every video you two impress me more & more. Love the free thinking Lost in Vegas represent. Much respect.
Will, I'm glad your daughter is ok man. And also, if you guys want another song that deals with Depression, check out Fade to Black by Metallica.
In My Darkest Hour by Megadeth too.
Kasket .krusher apparently James wrote that song after his Marshall stack and other equipment was stolen
this album got me through some dark times in my teenage years and is still in constant rotation ST for life!!!
ST is one of my favorite bands a big theam with this band is frustration and a feeling of powerless btw Rocky George is a guitar god
James Cameron ST is criminally under remembered and recognized in the Metal and Music media outlets. They're a truly original band and were WAY ahead of their time.
The musicianship was among the best to have ever graced the scene. People just couldn't accept the LA cholo punk look for whatever reason. Skin tight spandex was totally acceptable, but not cuffed jeans and flipped up bills.
Those who know, love this band.
Rocky doesn't get the respect he deserves.
He is so awesome. The 8 finger tapping and the crazy technical ability and ....and I could go on forever and it wouldn't be enough..
I go through depression since I was 13 and declare medical depress and with anxiety but this band had got me through my tendencies. thank you for covering this song.
i don't typically watch reactions but yall got my sub, always putting out actually enjoyable critical videos instead of JUST watching or listening to a song or video and not saying shit. plus all this stuff supporting your subs, respect. deep respect. \m/ metal music got me through a lot, especially growing up the way i did, so this was really awesome to see you guys do, nothing but love from canada.
Beautiful song. Much love goes out to William and his daughter ❤️
Suicidal Tendencies definitely have that "something different" aspect to their brand of metal. Multiple members came from gangs in the Venice California area. The singer, Mike, has a cholo style in the clothes he wears. The guitar player, Rocky, is freaking amazing. He's one of the prominent African American guitarists to hit the scene in the 80's. The bass player is now the bass player for Metallica. I credit him as the reason Metallica has returned to the classic metal style of their earlier albums.
To be clear; not the bassist on this record. This is Bob Heathcote and it’s his only record with them. Before him it was Louichie Mayorga. After that they had Rob Trujillo who went on to be the current bassist of Metallica.
He is getting down on that guitar... That's Rocky one of the best guitarists in the world in his genra. A lot of black men have waled on the guitar...HE IS JUST ANOTHER GREAT ONE.
Much respect to you guys. The relationship between the two of you and your audience is what makes this channel special.
William Drake, I pray for your daughter, you and your whole family and circle of friends. I know full well how the slightest pain to our children is amplified in us as parents. I can barely imagine the difficulty you and your family are going through, and I sincerely hope you all find hope and strength in family, friends, and whatever spirituality you adhere to.
Thanks for the trip down memory lane! ST is awesome and so are you guys. Thanks for keepin' it real.
If you like this song you'd probably enjoy:
Metallica - Fade to Black
Megadeth - A Tout Le Monde
Dream Theater - Panic Attack
Matt and Shley McNeal I been asking for Panic Attack
FADE TO BLACK
all of them would be good especially fade to black and panic attack
Another good ballad is testament the legacy or return to serenity by testament as well
I fuckin love fade to black
Megadeth- Peace Sells.
Christian Paz yessssssss!
yessss
This was really cool for you guys to do for this individual and it shows a lot of class. I would like to also add that there are a lot of really great music from the band Suicidal Tendencies that you should check out (Send Me Your Money & Waking the Dead) I know a lot about them and this doesn't reflect the best of their music but I hope you will check out more of them.
One of my all time favorite songs. You guys are awesome. Thanks for this.
it's awesome seeing you guys listening to and trying to appreciate the music I grew up on
Thanks for having your subscribers backs, don’t get to big to not go through the comments on your videos
ST- Join the Army!!! One of the heaviest riffs EVER!
best st song ever.
Posted this back in your Slayer and Master of Puppets Reaction videos, I'll post it here again if you don't mind :3 :
Hey guys, I'm a musician who leans a bit more to the rock and metal spectrum of music and I really love your reactions to metal music. I'll admit, at first I was a bit put off by your pause-resume style of reviewing, but I have grown to appreciate it and look forward to you guys reacting to particular sections of songs that I know are amazing.
Anyway, in case you guys didn't know this before, there is actually a term called 'The Big 4' which was/is used to describe the biggest 4 Thrash metal bands during the 80s and early 90s (and since Thrash was the biggest metal subgenre then, by extension, they were the biggest 4 metal bands at a point of time too), and you guys have reacted to 3 out of the 4 so far (Metallica, Megadeth and Slayer) so I thought it would be great if you could react to the 4th band, Anthrax too.
Admittedly, they were the smallest of the Big 4 but they were highly successful and influential too. And interesting fact for you guys, they are even credited with being the first ones to combine rap with rock with first their comedy song I am the Man and then their collaboration with Public Enemy on the track Bring the Noise.
If you guys want to check out their classic stuff though, I'd recommend the songs 'INDIANS', 'CAUGHT IN A MOSH', "I AM THE LAW'(which is based on Judge Dredd, the comic), but if you don't mind going through some lesser mainstream stuff, 'BELLY OF THE BEAST' has one of the coolest rhythm shifts I have ever heard in a song while 'KEEP IT IN THE FAMILY' has some really awesome lyrics about racism and xenophobia. Please check these guys out :)
njldst2007 ode to billy's mom.
You mean Milk (Ode to Billy)??
What about IM THE MAN
Mentioned it in the comment :)
I have been watching your videos here and there and always enjoyed your humor and way to break down tunes. Today I subscribed, just 'cause you guys are keeping it real and I love what you did here. Keep it up! And big hugs to William and his family!
Very cool of you guys to do this for someone. Suicidal Tendencies helped me through some rough patches in my life. Especially when I was a teenager. Good stuff.
