Maybe some people do not like Shawn very much because he gets serious while he plays, but he's a great drummer after all and does his job perfectly. Rock on /,,/
Freakin solid! Much improved over the first album. Broderick is a beast. I actually hear some Sifringer (Destruction) type riffs early on. Drover seems more inspired and Derek has got some great range. I hope they gain some success!
The new songs sound fantastic. The band sounds great. Henry's vocals are even better on 'Old Scars' compared to the previous album 'Birth and the Burial'. Looking forward to hearing all of it~ Rob/Boston
Am i the only one who thinks that the vocals are getting better? I mean seriosly this guy henry or whatever his name is, he's getting better and better and i love it! \m/
Loved the first album and will definitely be picking this one up. Glad to see they haven't slowed down a bit. Hope to see them live soon. I can only imagine the pit.
jimthar17 hopefully they've picked up some more fans. Most of the live videos I saw from their last USA tour, the venues were pretty damn empty. Which is a damn shame
I saw and met them (VIP) last year in Greensboro NC with Hell Yeah, and the place was packed. AOD kicked major ass that night. These guys are really bad ass live, and interact so well with the crowd. Well worth seeing them live, and all the guys are so cool and laid back. Hoping to see them on the upcoming tour.
I like Broderick, I hear 3 bands at the same time all are him: Nevermore, Megadeth, Jag Panzer; he's so him in playing even in those bands. I'm glad he formed this group with Shawn.
Chris Broderick's guitar playing on this AOD album is off the charts excellent. The best shred playing I've heard since Marty Friedman on Megadeth's Rust in Peace.
ACT OF DEFIANCE is! A great/awesome METAL band & their my 5th favorite metal band of all time. Great new song & looking forward to the new album coming out. BIRTH AND THE BURIAL was extremely fucking good. On 6/7/16 @ Mr. Smalls Theater in Millvale, Pa. i saw ACT OF DEFIANCE, DEVILDRIVER, & HATEBREED (headlined).
Ericson Capone interestingly enough, I was watching the Throwback video earlier and saw a comment that said these guys are like Testament meets Revocation.
Came here to see what I'm in for this Friday when I go to see Armored Saint, since these guys are opening. I think I could stand this as an opening act though I'm not a huge fan. I can't knock it too much since it's Drover and Broderick so if they're good enough for Dave they're good enough for me.
Back in the day you could listen to a song and know from which album it is just by listening to the production quality. Now every band and every recording sounds exactly the same.
@@JohnnyTheNiceGuy to be fair.... this all sounds like ass from a listening stance.... everything is against you...1 your streaming this(that effects quality) or if you have it downloaded then its a compressed file like a Mp3 you lose tone when you compress the master recoding to a Mp3 ... but only an audiophile would notice... that's why some older music sounds more alive
"Standing at the top of a mountain with my sword held high" Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Fucking awesome chris really shows his talent here. Not to say his solos weren't good in megadeth they were amazing. I just felt he wasn't showing his true talent like he is now in act of defiance and I love this song.
Great guitar work, and the growling part is awesome - I wish I could hear at least one song from them without clean vocals :) All in all, worth the wait!
The guitar and the drums make the song for sure.. I mean its shawn drover and Chris Broderick of megadeth so its gonna be sick as fuck musically.. those two guys r incredible players.. I give this band props man.. they definitely took a heavier approach w this band.. vocals could be better, but still amazing.. loved it.. keep killin it guys..
I thought this would be Avenged Sevenfold cover M.I.A, lol. I'm wrong but I just heard a great song. Never heard of this band, but this song is cool. Anyone can suggest me this band's other great songs? Tq.
Did you know chris broderick was megadeths lead guitarist on the albums endgame 13 and super collider? And played with nevermote for like 6 or 7 years.
@@metallicaspiker16 I agree. This would be a sick reunion of sorts. But like you said, the man gotta eat and pay bills and right now AE is providing that. I would so the same thing.
I love broderick, and i love this genre of music...but my least favorite moment is when the lead singer comes in, because in soooo many bands the lead singer sounds forced and way too unnatural.
Always wondered how musicians of these bands that obviously are not going to sell thousands of records actually sustain themselves. Everybody pays mortgage, car loans, etc and I have to believe that these guys as so many others must have day jobs.

Despues de nick menza shawn es el baterista que mas me gusto en megadeth

Broderick rules
This is SO MUCH BETTER than the first album. Much better. Vocals are great and, the playing, well... always inspiring.
Very solid riffage from Chris! Also vocals are fine, especially screams, cant see the reason to complain
This is definitely a much more elaborate work since Birth and the Burial. Riff more techniques and better rhythms. It makes me happy this new job.
Love this song heaps heavy as Henry Derek's vocals are awesome as

Desde que cantó para scar the martyr sigo a Henry Derek. Es un gran vocalista lml
Exacto
Yo también bro, tiene un toque único 🤘

I hope so too. But I'll be there if they come anywhere near me. I fear I may have missed them if they came through last time.
jimthar17 I didn't get a chance to see them last time either. Hopefully they tour somewhere closer to where I live

Well worth seeing them live, and all the guys are so cool and laid back. Hoping to see them on the upcoming tour.
seen them back last year they sure do give the crowd a bad ass headbanging performance
Definitely getting this new album Sept 29th. I looked them up on Metal Archives
I like Broderick, I hear 3 bands at the same time all are him: Nevermore, Megadeth, Jag Panzer; he's so him in playing even in those bands. I'm glad he formed this group with Shawn.
I love the pure, clean vocals! Not overprocessed
We love you Shawn Drover 😄😊🙌

Chris Broderick 💙💙💙
This is what I awaiting for. Thanks a lot Metal Blade. 👍
Henry Derek is Fucking amazing vocalist
Ive already got the first act of defiance record so im definitely getting the new one
The middle part really gives me some Testament - The Gathering vibes
Ericson Capone interestingly enough, I was watching the Throwback video earlier and saw a comment that said these guys are like Testament meets Revocation.
not sure why everyone is hating on the vocals it sounds pretty good imo
aARON there pretty epic. And people will hate just to hate on stuff when they have no valid point.
aARON same strong lungs
his aggressive vocals good clean not good.My thought he dont make clean vocals.
Vocals are blooooddddddy awesomeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Anyone else getting some nevermore vibes?
I am getting plenty of Nvermore vibes mate.
Definitely. That's because Chris Broderick is playing guitar!
I get a neverdeth vibe
Its because Chris played in nevermore for 6 years too bad a Nevermore reunion won't happen rest in peace warrell dane.
Shawn Drover🤘🤘🤘👋
Killer!
Love this so much ..brutal voice brutal song

3:18..dude kiko loureiro technique..he can do it too...love chris broderick
Maybe its Chris' technique
Vocals are great. Wtf are you guys talking about?
Dude the guy sounds like he’s squeezing out a turd! The vocals are garbage.
@@yakuzaohtani3631 😂😂
better than first album, i like it
Is that Shawn on the drums?
Bruno Mota yeah
Nice, thank you!
Yeah boi. That sure is.
Yeah Glen's brother.
Robotic and boring as always 😜
kinda refreshingly cool
That solo!! Brilliant.
Chris Broderick is a TRUE 7 STRING METAL GOD.
Aaaah, now that's better. The vocals fit with Broderick's riffs beautifully. METAL 4EVA
These guys are great.
That solo 😍
Ar0474 amazing solo.
"Standing at the top of a mountain with my sword held high" Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
One of my favorite new bands and especially given the talent in the band compared to others
I don't know but the style of video remember me a movie of Terminator ,i like it :D
Fucking awesome chris really shows his talent here. Not to say his solos weren't good in megadeth they were amazing. I just felt he wasn't showing his true talent like he is now in act of defiance and I love this song.
F*CKING AMAZING!!
Gorkem Ergun it is amazing. I was speechless when I heard it.
Awesome band right here. Yeah man he can sing, love the vocals.
Pretty sick. Will def check this out.
Music like this is the reason why I bought a 7 string. I love this shit \m/
Great guitar work, and the growling part is awesome - I wish I could hear at least one song from them without clean vocals :) All in all, worth the wait!
Listen to throwback, thy lord belial, and disastrophe those have hardly if any clean vocals. Very very very heavy. Especially throwback.
I prefer clean vocals.
Holly shit I love this song! Nice job guys! Can't wait to see this live!!
The guitar and the drums make the song for sure.. I mean its shawn drover and Chris Broderick of megadeth so its gonna be sick as fuck musically.. those two guys r incredible players.. I give this band props man.. they definitely took a heavier approach w this band.. vocals could be better, but still amazing.. loved it.. keep killin it guys..
These guys are awesome. Loved the first album.
Amazing I seen them Soundcheck awesome dudes
Great album!
Digging on this shit big time; I hate how people say ; i hear megadeth with different singer; this quality kick arse metal!!!
I don't know why are people hating the vocals. It was the same when he was in Scar the Martyr.
LEGAL; MUITO E MUITO BOM. ABRAÇO.
much better than debut album nice to listen
I thought this would be Avenged Sevenfold cover M.I.A, lol. I'm wrong but I just heard a great song. Never heard of this band, but this song is cool. Anyone can suggest me this band's other great songs? Tq.
Rat Head the whole debut album is great dude.
Did you know chris broderick was megadeths lead guitarist on the albums endgame 13 and super collider? And played with nevermote for like 6 or 7 years.
Rat Head The guitarist and drummer were in Megadeth I met them cool guys
Great METAL music played the way I like it ! ! !
Jeff Loomis should leave ArchEnemy and join this band instead. Would love to see him work with Chris again.
friedtawilis07 agreed. I really think Jeff is wasting his potential in AE, but it’s making him money, so I guess I can understand why he’s there.
@@metallicaspiker16 I agree. This would be a sick reunion of sorts. But like you said, the man gotta eat and pay bills and right now AE is providing that. I would so the same thing.
Jeff tours the world and can actually make a living playing for Arch Enemy. He'll be working that gig for a while............
So solid!!
Aod will kick your ass w metal if you ever see these guys live ..also I got my pic w them so they are cool as well ..
Really the best I've heard from these guys but I'm bias I'm a fan! Love it. 5/5
Love this band to deathhh
This voice is so powerful
The owner of the restaurant I work at just told me about this band. His niece is dating the guitarist. Rich people’s lives are crazy
Went to there Dallas concert and mother to this and it was lit af
Cool
Just heard this song on Last Man On Earth S04E05.
The riff for the verses is fucking smooth.
Finally found an AIC song I can get through until the end.
Fuck yeah!!!! You guys take my attention off djent!!!
That into is so damn sick
loving this
Blaze.
Killer
Great song Impressive...Nicely Done.....
Broderick makes this band. When he shreds it doesn't sound like someone playing scales like most other guitarists, it's melodic and thought out.
Good stuff. Very similar to nevermore!
Holy Guacamole!! These guys jammeth!
Strong ! Great solos !
Brutal Killer! !!!!!!!!!!
Fuck Awesome \m/
Tasty stuff
Shawn drover. Saw him and glen with megadeth. This is dope
verry good thx
AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!
I REALLY LIKED IT...ESPECIALLY BRODERICK.
I love broderick, and i love this genre of music...but my least favorite moment is when the lead singer comes in, because in soooo many bands the lead singer sounds forced and way too unnatural.
shits happens ...this is Act of Defiance
It's great
Guitarist: How many notes should I play in two solos for one song?
...Yes
LA RAJA
What a phenomenal solo. And also as a whole song, I'll give it a solid 7/10.
Sounds good
Chris sounds like.... beautiful. And i like the new singing style. 10/10 in my opinion
Congrats
Always wondered how musicians of these bands that obviously are not going to sell thousands of records actually sustain themselves. Everybody pays mortgage, car loans, etc and I have to believe that these guys as so many others must have day jobs.
These guys remind me a little bit of that Italian band called Bejelit
