Definitely. Ponytail girl got it without the vocals too, so definitely give some instrumental albums a listen. Currents, Shadow of Intent, Intervals, August Burns Red, Northlane, Humanity's Last Breath, Invent Animate, Vildhjarta etc. all put out instrumental albums too.
Yup, just gotta do what I'm sure most of us did. Go from like SOAD/Disturbed to like Slipknot then maybe some As I Lay Dying/Atryu/Trivium etc until 15-20 years down the line you're listening to Surgeon and Scarlet Rot XD
@@rytr0niousThat’s almost exactly what I did😂. My progression went Iron Maiden>A7X>Slipknot>All That Remains>Suicide Silence. Now here I am almost 10 years later still listening to all those bands but also deathcore and black metal. Just got a Lorna Shore tattoo a few weeks ago😂
Has been for the 17 years I've been into metal. I personally hate cleans in metal unless theyre done well, usually it's some cheesy metalcore hook (like Bilmuri lmao) which normies eat up lol
literally the most annoying response, i get that it's a pleasant thing to listen to but they dont even try to respect the sheer skill it takes to do screaming/gutturals/growls
@@TaurineFiend Bro, these people don't listen to this kind of stuff, you can't really expect them to appreciate screaming skills and technicalities. All they can do is "vibe" or "not vibe" with the songs
It's an adquired taste, i eat Infant Annihilator for breakfast, but when I started listening to metal I considered gutturals as pure noise, nowadays I love them, I have been practicing for 1 year
I find it so funny that they are sitting completely still during these absolute filthy breakdowns, while I’ve already broken my neck in several places during this video😂
@@VildhjartaFanGurl for real, even if you don't like a certain genre/style/whatever, like doesn't the beat do anything for your soul? The guy who said I feel like you have to move your head or it doesn't count. YOURE DANG RIGHT MA GUY!
You don’t understand how happy I am you ended that with STP Viking. If you’re not into this kind of music I can see who that would be hard to digest, Alex is an absolute beast.
Deathcore and its similar genres is a taste that has to be developed, you start small growing into it with linkin park etc then you get into metalcore with the duality of the heaviness and the cleans and at some point you just enjoy being set ablaze by this ingenious music
My suggestions just to see some shocked faces: 1) Infant Annihilator - Unholy Gravebirth 2) Signs Of The Swarm - Cesspool Of Ignorance 3) Paleface Swiss - The Orphan Thx in advance 😅
You have drummers runnin marathons, guitarists who shred in the quantum realm, vocalists from the 9th ring of hell and the ability to drastically effect your soul. Love it or hate it, metal is a powerful form of music and I absolutely love it 🤘
I have started SO MANY people off with instrumental metal tracks. It never takes them long to love it. Then I start slowly introducing the harsh vocals. I have a VERY high conversion rate, it almost always works
Despite what a lot of people think about it, I think popular nu metal is always a great start for people because it has heavy music, but it has a mix of clean and heavy vocals more often than not being more clean with only tates of heavy so it's not in their face as much. Also, with the hip hop influence, it can feel somewhat familiar for people who mostly listen to mainstream music. Also, within nu metal itself, you can start simple and progressively getting heavier before branching out into heavier sub geners. So even though some metal heads kinda hate on nu metal sometimes it's more about what the person you trying to convert might like and I like nu metal myself anyway
Homeboy predicted when the the lead part starts again, and headbanged. He's a "light" metal head for sure lol. Soon to be a convert. Keep slaying em brudda
The Flame That Guides Us Home/Not I intro and the Deluxe Edition of True Defiance makes me so happy. You should blindside people with I Am a Stone after playing something like Someone to Hate or Crucifix to set up the whiplash effect of the same band having super different sounding songs I also love the fact that at least half of these bands are just rockin' for Jesus. I'm glad the Christian Metal genre is still pumping out killer tracks. If you haven't heard Thus Saith The Lord by Reformed (Victor Borba), highly recommend. That song goes hard
Bilmuri is literally so goated. Love showing non-metal fans his music. So good Edit: anyone who says they can get behind the guitars and drums just needs to be eased into it and they’ll get that acquired taste
I can definitely see why people that don’t like metal would hate after the burial and really heavy metal. Playing them more melodic metal bands would definitely a better choice
Oh they will learn to love them screams. I used to hate the screams in metal years ago but loved the instrumentals and grew to love the vocals in time just as much. Also it’s good to see a genuine react channel that doesn’t pretend to like everything they hear.
Really good video in the same format that others have done before. For some reason it felt unique - the listeners were actually engaged and giving the music a fair chance. It's very difficult to get non-metal listeners to stomach "harsh vocals" but this lot was far more fun and light hearted than it usually goes for me. Thanks4Content
ol Haste the day.. I miss those dudes. I was at the Haste the day vs Haste the day (both line ups took turns playing songs) show at Rhinos in Bloomington Indiana. Was sold out, so i got an extra ticket from someone in the parking lot. The venue stamps your hand so I pressed my hand against a few of my friends hands and we all got in. The rhino stamp was mirror imaged, but they didnt notice.
Living Sacrifice is band I haven’t listened to in ages. I had one of their albums in high school and it was by far the heaviest music I had ever heard at that time(late 90’s). It stayed that way for many years, and in many ways was my introduction to brutally heavy music. The closest thing in that period of my life was Fear Factory’s album Obsolete. Now I listen to bands like STP and Lorna Shore.
As a MN boy, After the Burial will always be at the top of my favorites. I’ve seen them live so many times and they just djent it home every time. Thanks for including them!
I guarantee a trick to help you like any song. Head bobbing/banging gives you 60% more enjoyment. The dude with white cap and and brunette girl were enjoying those songs and the ones completely still hated every one
Love these vids would like to see any of these bands for future eps: Animosity, Through The Eyes of the Dead, Oceano, Despised Icon, Within The Ruins, Cephalic Carnage, Organectomy 🤘🤘
After the Burial is one my favorite djent bands, too bad they didn't play more of this song it's just gets crazier and crazier as the goes 100% Djent. RIP JUSTIN LOWE
Would love to see this but with more of a modern core sound, something like Motionless, Polaris, Erra, hell maybe even Beartooth. Throw in some electric callboy as well lol
Bro how have I not heard of so many of these songs/bands? The reactions are great but I’m really here for killer song choices, my playlist thanks you 🔥🤘🔥
Thank you for the feature! Glad they didn't... hate?...it? Lol
your song sounds amazing! immediately added it
Great song already added to my playlist
Your song was so sick! Reminds me of classic For Today!
@@rytr0nious we'll take it! ❤️
Awesome song guys!!
Hat guy has untapped metal head within him
For real. Just a matter of if he wants to put in the work or not
Definitely. Ponytail girl got it without the vocals too, so definitely give some instrumental albums a listen. Currents, Shadow of Intent, Intervals, August Burns Red, Northlane, Humanity's Last Breath, Invent Animate, Vildhjarta etc. all put out instrumental albums too.

my theory has always been that its the vocals that throws the normies off more than anything else. theyre literally saying they like the guitar.
I dont think that that's the contention, its that they think all metal vocals are just pointless screaming and not emotional or meaningful lyrics

Added to the playlist
Thank you and you're welcome! 🙏
Thanks for the love!
The Bilmuri overlay at 4:22 had me rolling 🤣💀
🤠
Man, Bilmuri is FAST becoming one of my favorite artists out there.
Bilmuri is goated for now everyday I crank my hog as he says while checking for flourideinthehardsheltzerwater
I was about to say that got me crankin my hog instantly.
@@soulrebel4lifeI don’t wanna catch you fucking posers wiping claiming to be the biggest fan
You don’t understand how happy I am you ended that with STP Viking. If you’re not into this kind of music I can see who that would be hard to digest, Alex is an absolute beast.
Seeing him live is a spiritual experience
that death growl sure shakes up this 56 yr old memaw! If I was a religious womanI'd almost need to go to confession >.
I hope like hell they are on the lineup for Louder Than LifeI ruly wanted to see them while they were out with FIR@@thebekfestclub
I was surprised they didn't show the reactions to the gator growl. lol
First Diamonds to dust, now Bloodlines, HolyName, meet your maker and Haste the day!?! My guy. Your taste is impeccable!!!!
People who enjoy Christian metal? There are literally dozens of us!
@@shaynesingleton7525 Yeah that's pretty spot on haha.
@@shaynesingleton7525❤yeah, true
This would be an incredible Christmas Burns Red lineup
There was also Becoming the Archetype and Impending Doom in the first video as well as the demon hunter intro in this one
Ma was vibing to Living Sacrifice.
No one can resist LS 🤘
I've listened to living sacrifice since I was a teenager. Blows everyone's mind when people find out they are a Christian metal band
Bruh the editor deserves a raise. The sax seal in the first to “THE GOAT” meme in this. Boy is on point
Hat guy is one of us, he just needs a good mentor to show him the way haha
Bilmuri absolutely killed me. He's so happy to be here lmfaooooooooooo. Dude is awesome
Johnny cranck
He's just happy to be here wherever "here" is, truly. Went to a show of his a little over a week ago, and he seemed super grateful for it all.
Deathcore and its similar genres is a taste that has to be developed, you start small growing into it with linkin park etc then you get into metalcore with the duality of the heaviness and the cleans and at some point you just enjoy being set ablaze by this ingenious music
Excellently said. I feel like it starts with LP then slipknots Iowa. I then graduated STP and now I love cannibal corpse
I love grindcore, black metal, and death metal but I still fucking despise deathcore and metalcore
My suggestions just to see some shocked faces:
1) Infant Annihilator - Unholy Gravebirth
2) Signs Of The Swarm - Cesspool Of Ignorance
3) Paleface Swiss - The Orphan
Thx in advance 😅
these would slap some cheecks for sure
Orphan is one of the greatest songs of that year easily
PALEFACE MENTIONED
#4 Aborted (any song) 😆
i'd argue if you're gonna mention sots then it'd have to be amongst the low and empty
You have drummers runnin marathons, guitarists who shred in the quantum realm, vocalists from the 9th ring of hell and the ability to drastically effect your soul. Love it or hate it, metal is a powerful form of music and I absolutely love it 🤘
You forgot the bassists that would finger any girl straight into hell 😂
No, you don't.
It gets me hard!

throw a litlle metalcore in there and you'll have them listening to a bunch of heavy genres in no time
The Slaughter ending perfect!
I love that Living Sacrifice was included. Such an underrated band.
Agreed! They're incredible! Easily in my top three metal bands of all time.
Never heard of them but they sound good.
With the GOAT layover 😤😤😤 that's what's up.
Living sacrifice is excellent. I remember walking to the mall to buy ghost theif when it came out
great name
Throwing Haste The Day in there! Nostalgic 2006
That airhorn drop on Laurentian Ghosts hypes me up so fast, it's instantaneous.
It hypes me up but I can't help but giggle like a little kid every time 😅
Homeboy predicted when the the lead part starts again, and headbanged. He's a "light" metal head for sure lol. Soon to be a convert. Keep slaying em brudda
I've frequently listened to Slaughter to Prevail at the gym. Glad to see them represented lol
This is fantastic! Not only are the reactions great but I'm discovering some new to me music, thanks!
Thanks for watching!
Really enjoy Bilmuri’s anabolic spudsman with the sax solo on this video. I wanna be friends with whomever had input on that
Have you ever listened to Where Owls Know My Name by Rivers of Nihil? Absolute banger
Stoked to see Haste the Day on here. I feel like no one talks about them anymore but they slappppp
I'm surprised by the amount of underrated Christian metal bands on these videos! Thats awesome dude!
I love you so much for putting Blue 42. Haste the Day was soooo good
You've got a solid taste in music! Best metal reaction videos I've seen on YT in ages!
Thank you!!
I loved the transparent image of Johnny with his thumb up after the breakdown hahah. I love Bilmuri so much.
I like how most of the bands are Christian bands, these videos are helping me expand my Christian metal music lol
No gym playlist is complete without Malevolence
Every single one of these guys would've loved the opening riff of 'On Broken Glass' for sure \m/
"I feel like I have heartburn" was the line of the year.

You got Bilmuri on here, instantly a 10/10
Omg the blue 42! 🤘🏻 Yall really have the greats in these vids
Ole dude in the hat was vibing after his triple scoop before the sesh
Nice to hear some after the burial. Absolutely underated. BALANCING ON CANNONBALLS!
Y'all turned me onto some bangers, thanks! Even if your co workers may not agree haha
Ahhh Bilmuri was such a good selection.
It’s definitely a good way to ease someone into metal. He’s got so many groovy and melodic bits in his shit
Please continue with these videos!
We're working on more!
Holy crap, Blue 42 was in my playlist for years in the early 2000s. These videos are great.
THE MIGHTY LIVING SACRIFICE, LETS GOOOO🔥
THE BEST!
THANK YOU FOR DOING THIS you are tempting me to make a video myself doing the same thing
Love these videos! Great idea and keep em coming. My playlist is growing, thank you!
I love seeing all the Christian metal in this, makes me happy 👏
Haven’t heard Haste the Day since back in HS 2004-05 that brought me back.
I miss them so much 🥲
Johnny being overlaid in Anabolic was perfect
I love this please continue making these lmao I always love people’s reaction to metal and ur always putting me on bangers
This poor girl. I think she may be permantly traumatized. She was diggin Blue 42. Lol

Saw Living Sacrifice and Bilmuri on here. Instant watch and like.
You gotta throw a Invent Animate breakdown in there some time! Cloud Casscade?
If they want beautiful they gotta go with Heavener too!
Can't hear a haste the day song and not want to go and listen to entire discography back to back
Something tells me my man grew up on Christian metalcore. Only my homies ever knew who Demon Hunter/Becoming The Archetype were.
It's true. 😁
Hat bro is one of us now. His face is one of realization: "oh, I could have had this in my life when things were shit? I missed out"

These vids are fire i need more
Thank you! We've got more coming!
Just subbed. I love that you give as much love as you do to some of my favorite Christian metal artists like Demon Hunter and Living Sacrifice.
Saw bloodlines last year at heartsupport fest loved them!!
I'd love to see them live!
Love the band choices so far! Requesting Phinehas and Lorna Shore in pt 3!!!
Would love to see this but with more of a modern core sound, something like Motionless, Polaris, Erra, hell maybe even Beartooth. Throw in some electric callboy as well lol
slaughter to prevail reactions never fail to disappoint lmao
I love how many Christian metal bands were shown 😁
Same
Bro how have I not heard of so many of these songs/bands? The reactions are great but I’m really here for killer song choices, my playlist thanks you 🔥🤘🔥
The Raven Autarchy needs to be on this list. Other than that a fantastic pick on songs, especially Living Sacrifice and Haste the Day!
i feel like you could get some of these guys on board with some fit for a king or invent animate
you can see the metal slowly seeping into golf hat bro throughout the whole video, hopefully we have a new fan!
You guys have a public playlist on Apple Music? Bangers in these last few videos.
I'm working on making one!
Glad to see Living Sacrifice getting some love!
Living Sacrifice changed my life. I mean the first incarnation ❤❤❤
NAILS and END for the next video, please. Love these reactions.
end is so good
