BYOB-bring your own bombs. Dancing in the desert blowing up the sunshine-our soldiers fighting wars
Im so sorry for saying this but GOD DAMN i love it when people get jumpscared by SOAD music. Its too good 😂
That’s why I love watching reactions especially to soad 😂
The lyrics in metal music are all about delivering a message. Most people just hear angry screaming but their is a message most of them are positive.
And it's extremely difficult music to perform...I've got advanced degrees in music (so like, western classical) and this shit is only able to be done by people who are dedicated to their craft and work hard to improve. Love metal....
also a lot of it is angry screaming with no message
@@sfurules That’s the best thing about metal for me. So far, it’s the genre that “modernizes” classical music and classical techniques in the best way. It’s wild how many metal bands are actually classically trained and use that directly in their music.
@@SkoomaFish sometimes there might not be a meaning but an outlet of emotions.
I dont think anyone can prepare for BYOB - that's why I love people reacting to it. Its about the Iraq war back in 2001/2 fyi. The main tactic the military bragged about using was a technique called "Shock and Awe" and that's what the song does.
Iraq was 2003. One of my best friends didn’t see his 21st birthday because of that damn war. I’ve been in the VA psych ward a few times and some of the guys there are just gone mentally. This song hits hard.
Aerials , Toxicity, Prison Song, Spiders, can’t go wrong
With any of their debut album tracks
As people mentioned this about the Iraq War. The line "dancing in the desert blowing up the sunshine" refers to us bombing the crap out of the population, "hangars sitting dripped in oil, crying FREEDOM!" refers to the real purpose of the war, which was to control Iraq's oil fields and further how they used "freedom" to justify it, all the while feeding us lies (weapons of mass destruction, etc) to hype up support. And of course sending mostly poor, desperate volunteers to fight a rich man's war that wealthy, privileged families would never allow their sons and daughters to fight in. Such a deep, powerful song delivered in their unique in your face, shock and awe style. An an absolute classic banger to the nth degree.
You don't get comfortable listening to a SOAD song. They're going to pull the rug out from under you at least a half dozen times.
It's fun.
This song has a very similar message as the song War Pigs by Black Sabbath. Even the same line about the poor fighting the war.
And when you become more familiar with the rapid shifts…they won’t overwhelm you - they become a powerful force of energy. ☯️
Again, another PURE GOLD REACTION! LOOOOOL TOXICITY NEXT, WILL YOU PLEASE???????
"Aerials" is another BIG hit from SOAD....... Bring Your Own Bombs!
Toxicity is another huge and popular song by them that I think you'll love
SOADs music is as relevant today as ever.
Yes!! U did it!! (1st)
Yes!!
just about halfway, you've got 'Toxicity' on the big screen behind you... that is one you need to check out if you haven't already...
Watch Aerials next. When you lose small mind you free your life.
we're expendable. you're not ready but spiders, is epic
Your jersey is dope btw 🔥🔥
Pls more SYSTEM!!!
It’s insane that SOAD will have songs with Serj singing “banana banana terracotta pie” or songs like Chop Suey then they’ll have songs about the Iraq War, the US prison system and Armenian Genocide. God I love them
I like that toxicity was playing on the TV in the background towards the end lol
Hell yeah man! My new favorite music reaction channel. I won't bother listing any SOAD suggestions, I know this comment section is going to be filled to the brim with them soon enough. But if you want to try a new rock band, I'm a big fan of Kyuss. (It's pronounced "KIE-us", rhymes with "tie"). "Green Machine" and "Gardenia" are two of their must-listen songs. They're so good and very influential amongst '90s and '00s rockers, but nobody ever reacts to them.
Prison song, toxicity, aerials, revenga, deer dance, sugar, lost in hollywood, cubert.. so very many to choose from.
I just loved you reaction 😂😂 lonely day is a slow one of them, and arials to. One of my favorits, check them up
Question! Is their best song/video
Love the TV behind you 🇦🇲🇦🇲🇦🇲
Of course you have to reaction to arials of system of system man!!! It's insane like rapping!!
A good follow-up to this one would be the 'Five Finger Death Punch - Wrong Side of Heaven' video.
Peace brother!
Next one question! Plz.
revenga is a personal favorite of mine right now
also question is another really good song
and if you want something really unhinged from them listen to sugar
This video is based loosely on an 80's movie called They Live. A lot of the imagery is clearly from that movie. The signs saying OBEY and all of that. Beyond that, and it's a bit hard to explain the movie, but the main character comes across these special glasses that allow him to see what's really going on. And in this video there's the difference between the marching soldiers and the party scene, and also everyone wearing the VR headsets at the end.
That didn't explain it well at all, but I don't want to be annoying a write a whole book about it. It's about the government lying to you and using poor people to their advantage using manipulation and the illusion of "freedom".
💚💚💚💚💚
I could just pinch your cheeks grasshopper! 🤣
wait until he hears question
SOAD lyrics always confused me. They're not native english speakers, neither am I. So trying to understand their message goes a really long way since Serj Tankian for sure has had other english teachers, another background, another vocabulary etc than I had.
Prison Song!. Shimmy. Aerials. Toxicity. These are all on the same album, "Toxicity." Their best album in my opinion. The entire album is like water bro. It just flows. Its their second record. System's first album is a very close second to Toxicty. I def. recommend you just let that one play all the way thru first listen also.
Government and illuminate
Be prepared...this is a long comment lol!
In order to understand the meaning behind B.Y.O.B., it helps to understand what was going on in the world geopolitically when this song came out in 2005. The War in Iraq was at its height and the American people were beginning to find out that what we were originally told about the reasons for why we needed to invade Iraq (they possessed weapons of mass destruction, they had ties to the 9/11 terrorist attacks, etc.) were in fact not true, and that oil executives and defense contractors were profiting BIG TIME from the U.S. being in Iraq. After the 9/11 terrorist attacks, there was a lot of patriotic fervor that swept the country and the prevailing attitude, as delivered by then-President George W. Bush in a speech to Congress days after the attacks, was "either you are with us, or you are with the terrorists." This was later modified over the ensuing weeks, months, and years to become "if you aren't with us, you're against us." This became known as the Bush Doctrine. It was an effective strategy for ensuring that Americans acquiesce to whatever decisions would be made by the administration regarding the coming inevitable wars to avenge the 9/11 attacks and to not ever question them lest they be labeled as terrorists or traitors themselves (reflected in the music video by the marching drones displaying the "OBEY" message). This strategy worked well because Americans who were against the Iraq War from the outset were constantly being labeled as being unpatriotic and anti-freedom (to this day, they still sometimes are). War also tends to stimulate the economy (the marching drones in the music video, again, displaying messages like "BUY"). So when you look at the lyrics, lines like "hangars sitting dripped in oil, crying 'FREEDOMMMM'" is an example of what was really going on behind the propaganda that was being fed to us regularly. We were constantly told by the media that the reason we were embroiled in this hectic and chaotic war in Iraq was to bring freedom to Iraq and its citizens and to protect the United States from terrorists, while behind the scenes oil executives were cashing in big time from newfound access to oil fields in Iraq and defense contractors were cashing in big time as well through the manufacturing and selling of weapons, bombs, and arms. Other lyrics like "you depend on our protection," "breaking into Fort Knox stealing our intentions," and "why don't presidents fight the war? Why do they always send the poor?" further compound this and can apply to any and every military action that the United States engages in. The repeated lyric "yet you feed us lies from the tablecloth" invokes an image of a typical American family sitting down to dinner every night at a well-set table with a nice tablecloth and watching the evening news receiving daily updates from the "freedom fighting and liberating" we were doing in Iraq so as to ensure that we were being turned into "marching forward hypocritic and hypnotic computers" while in actuality, the wealthy and powerful are "going to the party, having a real good time, dancing in the desert, blowing up the sunshine" since they were becoming increasingly wealthier and more powerful.
tl;dr - the song is about government propaganda generally, and as it pertained to the Iraq War specifically.
btw, there's surprises!
jump scare: the song
I love that you are so impressed by the change ups, but that is 90s metal and alternative my man. Dig deeper into the best 90s bands, Tool, Pantera, System, Rage Against the Machine, White Zombie, Pearl Jam, the list is a mile long.
It's one of the most best Album ever get out. You have to listen to the other Songs.
They send the poor because we are expendable . No one cares if we die except our loved ones . Is one way of looking at it . Pawns in a chess game . But on the other hand we DO need soldiers to fight for our country when need be . If we didn't , who would ? I will leave it at that though .
serj tankian - empty walls
If you don’t know any Armenians go find one. Not the liquor store one but the good one. You’ll learn a lot.
The song starts out with government propaganda, and the populous "marching forward hynocritic". The songs switch to the party vibe/groove is a criticism of the US public being blissfully unaware of the severity of what is happening.
Here is what is happening. A terrorist organisation managed to pull off the 9/11 attacks in NYC and the US used that to charge into the middle east and wreak havoc on the region with a "War on Terror". A few years later, they turned their attention to Iraq and Sadam over supposed "weapons of mass destruction" (nuclear) and launched an all-out assault they called "Shock and Awe". The coalition of the US, UK, etc bombed the shit out of Iraq. This wasn't a strategic coup; this was pure brutality. About 250,000 to 300,000 Iraqi people dead, vs about 7500 allies. An absolute massacre. Coincidently, Iraq had no WMDs, the country was completely fucked, the authoritarian anti-US leader dead and the US deeply in control of one of the worlds prominent oil exporters... "Everybody going to the party have a real good time! Blowing up the desert in the sunshine!"
The shouting "Where the fuck are you?" is a cry to snap out of it, wake up, and think about what is happening.
Hala madrid
You are too young. The song condemns the presidential policies in the gulf war when with the excuse of finding nuclear weapons they wanted to take the oil crying: freedom!!!
Just pick any SOAD song bro.... They're all gold.
first 3 mins just you talking about how good you are at reacting..
Если ты обосрал эту песню, ты даже не понял о чём она
