It's great to see you guys back, cause (and I'm sure I'm speaking for all your fans) that we're glad to see you guys again, cause we missed you.
Thank you guys, love you...rock on!
True story! Really good to have them back
Big oofs
Nowhere to be seen.
What happened to them?
I hope you guys are okay…
These guys are probably the ones I like watching in terms of reaction videos. No overexaggerated thumbnails, no cringy intro, they know what they are taking about in terms of music, no shouting of screaming for views and overall they seem like a balanced and nice couple.
That’s so very kind of you to say! We appreciate your honesty and willingness to cut through the noise and be with us as we share music and moments with you.
Much love,
Kel N Rich
First! Holy crap guys! I’ve been so worried about you both! I’m just glad you’re both fine. 🤗🤗
waiting...hope you guys are doing well, stay safe.
And then they disappeared again.....
🤷🏾♂️
You two were lucky to find each other....most of us, married or not never get a chance to find someone that is special as you two are together.....it was a privilege to witness your teenage love and energy towards each other....peace.
gawwwwd
You can just tell how much your wife loves you. Amazing to watch ❤
Hey!! So good to see you guys. I’ve missed y’all!
Welcome back!
I have listened to this track about 5 times and I’m addicted to it , it grows on you heaps .
i love the old school metallica sound
I wish RUclips and the music publishers would realize how much music I've PURCHASED after watching reaction videos of songs I've bever heard before . . .
Welcome back. SO missed you both. Subbed again! Love you both!
If Darkness had a Son.....it became a youtube algorhythm!!!!!!!
Hey hey! You're back!
Happy RUclips Anniversary, you two!!!
Thank you Ryan!!!! It’s a great feeling being able to upload without being given copyright strikes or just being blocked. It takes some work, but it’s worth it in times like this.
Thanks for the kind words. Love ya!!
KnR
Glad your back, as always "Up the Irons"
I just wanna say that true MetallicA fans enjoy MetallicA, because they love the band, the members, their stories, their musicianship. And I understand the die hard MetallicA fans out there are upset. But that's what we have to learn to do, and that is give that feeling that we felt 30-40 years ago when we first heard MetallicA, and let the new wave of the MetallicA army that is to be likey the last. And that's what it's about as a band and musicians. If you hate it? That's fine! But I love and live for diversity. And MetallicA gives it to me. Just because some of us don't enjoy it, dosnet mean the kid hanging out by the street light with no one isn't feeling alive to this. Think about that!
So happy to hear Metallica reactions from you guys again ❤️
(Blonde K-N-R Fan Crying and Pleading)... "Leave Kel & Rich ALOOOOONE!!!!"
I like the new way you did this. Keep it up.
Good seeing you guys
Great seeing you two!!
Always good to see you guys
Where u guys been I thought yall was back,I miss yall,I've never missed not one reaction
Rich said youtube was giving them too many copyright problems
🌀🌀🌀🙏🙏🙏👋👋👋 i'm so stoked you're back
Thumbs up for the intro alone. 😅
Bless all of you. Light and love.
you really need to see the song welcom to the jungle
You know, like every band their music goes down hill as they get older, but I think for how old they are and where they're in their career, I think it's pretty good. I mean every band goes through this at some point in their career. You can't bring back the past, you can only live for today, and that's where they are at in their lives.
Translation: The bands I think are really good these days are unlistenable.
Nah man. Not every band goes through this stage. You've got bands like meshuggah writing the violent sleep of reason album in their old age, their most technically demanding, bonkers album. Even immutable which is their slower, more chilled out album, is still very creative.
Glad to see you back on.
I miss you all. Can we at least get an update on things? Pretty please?
*** Last KISS concert: December 1st & 2nd @ MSG
Peace be with you. Thanks for sharing your journey with us all. You made a difference, and give hope to find new love.
From west coast Canada 🇨🇦, peace.
Greetings from the beautiful Napa Valley CA !! You both are right! I agree with Kel about Lars and his drumming! He's the drum sound of the band and also agree with Rich about Kirk's solo... It could've been a lil' different but hey, it's still METALLICA and I love it! 🤘 cheers.
love and miss you!
Yep I'm pretty fucking happy with that
Nice to see you guys back :)
The part that you said reminded you of Devil's Dance reminded me of the solo from 'Of Wolf and Man'
Oh yeah, Kel CANNOT hide her facial expressions i.e. "Call of Cthulu" and "Orion" reactions. lol
Awesome fucking song! This will divide the metal-head Metallica fans from the pop-head Metallica fans, because the pop-heads will prefer the two previous tracks while the metal-heads will love this one all the more.
so wrong dude i ve been seeing metallica since the 80's over 70 times live had the first album before it went public. jonny zazula gave it to me
I agrée totally. Great groove!!!
@@Kel.N.RichReactions Please react to my song... ruclips.net/video/kGY96C6bypA/видео.html It is heavy as fuck
Your on the money mate that was good shit
You are wrong. All shite
OVERKILL AND TESTAMENT put this band to shame
Popped in to comment on the new additions to the set. Love the line up. Huge Tolkien fan so the hobbit is big. At work, we carried the arcade1up lineup of games, including the Star Wars pinball.
As far as the song, Metallica is not really my cup of tea. But we do sell a lot of it on vinyl. Fun thing an older fellow was in with his nephew aged early teens, with long involved discussion of Metallica. The kid bought a cd from his own pocket money, the vinyl was too costly for him.
First thing I thought when I first heard this was . . . . And Justice For All . . . . I'm gad you agreed!
Love this song. Wait til you listen to the other tracks, especially inamorata..a masterpiece. Back to if darkness had a son, I really like the bit Kel doesn't. It's sort of like a whirlpool you get sucked into with the twirling bass & drums & lyrics, then you pop out or get popped out into the next bit of the song 🤘🔥
This song has been stuck in my head... HERE I AAAAAAM!
Just stop the video and comment when things happen. Works the best for me. I prefer that. That will take care of the algorithms. Glad you're back either way!
What the crack??!! I haven’t seen you two in over a year.
OMG where have you guys been? There is so much music you guys have missed.
Love you guys. Love from Portugal!
Devemos ser os dois tugas do canal. :)
@@MiguelXisto1 Três ;)
@@brunofagulha o que se passou com eles?
Hi you two. Get Kel to play one of her instruments for us.
The "Temptation" is from a scrapped St. Anger song from the SKOM Documentary!! Welcome back guys!
I am not a big Metallica fan, but this is a good basic head-banger, with some tasty guitar solo. I have seen commenters say that they were not impressed with the first two releases, but this rocks👍
Yep, Iron Maiden all the way!
It's nice to see you back. When there is a will, there is a way. You have to remember that. To surrender is to just disappear. Please don't disappear.
I hope you two are okay. Haven't seen you in a while . . .
Oh I love the darkness. The darker the better.
Nice Metallica shirt.....who said Lars sucks....haha....got the eye of the beholder there fir a sec with that beginning guitar...
Wishing you both many great days
Thank you SE 👁️! Even though it’s repetitive, it’s hypnotic. I love that. So cool that you stopped by with us!
Much love 💕

@@Kel.N.RichReactions
Chorus has Ghost vibes. James does like Ghost. I think he added some Ghost influence there.
Menacing is a good word for this one and I imagine it's intentional. Seems to be coming from a dark place from what James had been dealing with the last few years.
First time hearing this one myself I really liked it. Not bad at all they still sound great!! Good to see you guys again!!! Missed ya!!! Much love as always🤘🏻🙏🏻
kel kel lookin good..richie too
I really like all three songs form the new album so far. This is one is the heaviest so far. but the other two are still on my new music playlist on repeat.
Every once in a while I come back to see if you guys are back, and sadly you’re not.
Hi Kel and Rich, missed you .
A TOTAL BANGER!!! EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS SONG GOES WITH METALLICA!!! EVERYTHING THEY'VE DONE...TURNS INTO GOLD!!! 🎼🎸🥁👊🔥🤘💯👍
First off glad to see you guys back, I was wondering what was going on, I’m glad you explained it. Sorry to hear your difficulties in getting your posts blocked, unfortunately with what the record companies are doing with the strikes, especially for playing full songs, unfortunately you might need to adjust your posts to accommodate the asinine record companies.
I like it, I want to hear the rest of the album. This was a cool song, I’m not going to say it’s their best, but it’s good. 🎸🎸👍🤘🎤🎶😎
P.s. - Did you know your website is gone? When I saw your website gone last month I figured you might not be posting anymore because of Kel’s health situation. I canceled my Patreon because I thought you were done producing reaction videos, now that you explained why not posts for 3 months.
Intro is Du hast Metallica version 😁👍
Hi Kel n Rich.
Sorry for going completely off topic, but i have to request a Reaction Video from you two.
It is not your typical genre, but trust me, you won´t forget this one:
Artist: Ren, Title "Hi Ren". This will blow your minds. Ren is taking youtube by storm, there are hundreds of reaction videos on this one.
He is a british songwriter from Brighton. Multiinstrumentalist, Rapper, Singer, Poet, Bard, a multi talented artist in the truest form.
You have never heard anything like this, cause what he does is completely unique.
where are you guys!!!!miss you so much!!!!!
I like your analysis of this song. I'm learning.
I'm so happy to see you and look forward to more shows from you🎸😉
I just started watching your videos and you do a great job. The first video i watched was Dragonforce Through the fire and flames. Talk about your boy anytime!!
Thank you my friend. Kel and I really appreciate you joining us and taking time to comment. Stick around! Lots to explore. All kinds of tunes and different stages of our channel over the years. Much love.
KnR
Loved the reaction on the solo 😂😂😂
Tanto tentation ya me tiene hasta la madre
Good to see the two of you .I know Kel isn't into rap but for you rich I'd highly recommend Falling in reverse. Watch the would burn..great song great video
Thank you Chris!!!! I’m familiar with FIR. Definitely good. I’m still more about the groove but I listen to a wide range of music.
Kel is here with me. She sends a big hug to you with smiles 🫵❤️💕👏👏👏
@@Kel.N.RichReactions it warms my heart to see that you are well I've missed the two of you for sure.Funny enough I've just finished a black light Metallica mirror. All glowy in the dark and stuff
The first song from the new album that I’ve liked. That’s the BPM’s that I love……🤘
Exactly!!!
first one im not crazy about
@@zeplica2004 😁. Obvious you like thrash and faster BPM’s and I don’t.
@@helenespaulding7562 no problem i like all metallica songs just not crazy about last song they released. but the reason i like lovebites more is because they are like metallica use to be. check them out they have stuff you would like. try some ballads epilogue,empty daydream and edge of the world. let me know what you think. have a great day.
Great to see you guys again!
Good track, super nice to hear Roberts bass
Guys, NEVER forget :
You NEVER know what's on the other side of the PLAY button!
Where the bleeding hell have the pair of you gone now?!!
Gotta love they just vanish yet again for almost a year and no explanation or anything. Shows just how much their fans really mean to them
Maybe find out what is going in their life before making sweeping judgements.
@@davidbourgoin523 impossible to find out when they won't answer socials. It's been months. If they cared at all an update should've been given
Metallica have always had parts that feature very dark, heavy parts as well as lyrical content. Sad But True, Harvester of Sorrow, and The Thing that Should Not Be are just a few examples. This song was decent, obviously not as good as anything from ride the lightning or Master of Puppets or as catchy and mainstream as stuff from their self-titled album. It's good though, feels like it could have fit on the last album. The solo did feel a bit too long on this song though. If Kirk played a more streamlined solo like in Lux Aeterna, it might have fit a little better.
Everytime I hear this song and the little outro riff, it keeps reminding me of the outro riff from panteras I'm broken. Not exactly the same obviously but it has shades of it. A little faster and not as heavy but it's there
Some of the comments point up the distinction between what is technically more impressive to those who know something from the guitar playing side as to how difficult a given thing is to play as opposed what sounds good to people, and the latter, of course, is what matters ultimately in popular music.
That into is hilarous, well done to the editor.
Glad you like my hack job!
🤘😎🧙♂️
Rich
the black crowes she talks to angels
New stuff in a new way is good
Greatest Heavy Metal band of all time. Amazing band. They always kept it about the vibe. When all the other metal bands of their day fell to the wayside, Metallica just kept rocking. Hell, even the non Metal albums Load and Reload are great albums in their own right. Often duplicated, never outdone, Metallica is the real deal.
✅
Heavy metal ?? That’s funny
The verses and the sound change on them remind me straight Alice in Chains and i love the way James sound
This is absolutely #3 of the 3 releases so far. Its is NOWHERE near as good as the first two.
Welcome back, or welcome home (sanitarium) Kelly n Rich. This song will become a classic. I love all 3 songs for different reasons. Lux Aeterna was more immediate but took a few listens of this song & screaming suicide to really appreciate them. And still growing 🔥🤘
Dream theater - transcending time please
The hat suits Carlos!
Hey guys!!! You REALLY should check out an unsigned band called Solarus, and their song The Keeper. Amazing band, and your reaction won't get blocked with them!
not sure if you guys still requests, there are 2 that you guys should check out if you haven't already.....Extreme Rise...and Ren. HI Ren ( Little different from your usual
stuff, but OMG it's so good, and it's a live single take video)
Hope everything is ok! No video's in a while now
I was thinking the same thing. I check almost every day for an update . . .
you have all my blessings I love your love
GUESS YALL FORGOT ABOUT EPICA AND THIS LATEST OMEGA 💿 WOW THE NEW SONGS AND VIDEOS YALL MUST CHECK OUT ????
From Japan I'm relieved that both of you are doing well. I enjoyed your BAND-MAID reactions.
They will continue to work during the coronavirus restrictions, touring the United States in May and August of this year, and participating in three rock festivals in the United States in May. They celebrate 10 years together this year and they never stop. Please pay attention.
I agree with Kel about that one part. For me, it’s not that it gets “darker”, it’s that it completely breaks that wonderful hypnotic vibe with a totally uninteresting melodic line that detracts from the power of the groove. Also agree bass should be more foreword in the mix. Regarding drumming: Rich, I think your asking for Lars to be more like Bonham, but as far as I know, he’s always been a fairly straightforward drummer….besides he’s pushing 60…..I’m just glad he can still play with power.
Regarding the guitar solo: I agree with Ken but also think that that’s what most Metallica fans want to hear. For me, I would have preferred he take a lower register route with lots of distortion and wag wah…… would have loved to have seen what a young Jimmy Page would have done with that vibe. He would have been all over deep growling dark chord and wah wah.
