found out via twitter, the reason why the guitar is so djenty and different on this release is because Jason Richardson helped write the guitars for the song.
Based on some other clips I’ve seen around, it may be for a video for a new STP song called “Kid of Darkness.” Either way, I think Alex and Ronnie have clicked pretty well from touring/working together. I’m sure there will be more.
@@RyanLoper9 we see i don't know because Alex said the K.O.D song would be coming out soon but the post with him in that stuff said coming in December so 🤷🤷 Also it doesn't feel like that slaughter and looks like something from FIR, i could be wrong but we'll see
@@yonsetv5223 that is a good point about the timing discrepancies. Only thing I can think is maybe they want to release the single before the video is ready. However, I’m. Def not going to complaint if it’s another FIR collab! 🤘🏻
I got one more thought, you know Ronnie could’ve gone for the Zombified, Popular Monster, Watch the World Burn formula and would’ve had a track that set the internet on fire and would’ve been sure fire platinum. He knows that formula and easily could’ve done that. Yet, he went way out in left field and produced the hardest FIR song to date. Even with Tech Nine on the track which would’ve been a proper time to really get heavy into the Hip Hop community. Yet, here we are with a true metal and almost Deathcore sounding song. I feel like he did this because he knows he can. I think his status to this point has allowed him an opportunity to take a risk and that’s what they did with this one.
I had to watch this five times before I finally pieced everything together, mentally. I wanted an Alex breakdown in an FIR song and I got it. I wanted a Tech Nine verse in an FIR song and I got it. I’ve been saying these two things for about 8 months now. You won’t catch me complaining about shit. Ronnie heard me, Ronnie delivered. I’m golden.
I don't think Alex was meant to be a stand out feature but rather to show that Ronnie can get just as brutal with his vocals. Almost as a litmus test, with Alex being one of those vocalists that come to mind when thinking of filthy vocals. Ronnie was proving his range directly against one of the best currently doing it.
No that's Ronnie. lol Alex is only in that final segment. I've heard Ronnie growl ever since the ETF days and that's definitely him doing the lows. Alex is very recognizable. That wasn't him.
It definitely gets better with every play. I started off not vibing with it because it was more metal than their usual stuff, but after each play I find I like it more and more. The visuals are amazing and I definitely think there will be another song and video highlighting Alex Terrible’s vocals. Great job FIR! This one is definitely going on my road rage playlist for morning commutes. 😁
Jeris Johnson is also on his tour, he's also does alot of rap. Tech being on his tour is awesome and I think it's going to work out great, I've seen Tech live and FIR live so I think the fans are going to love it personally.
Also, Tech Nine does his singing rap shit all the time. Not sure why that was an issue. He almost always, in my experience, goes double time and then slows it back down. The half time also contrasts with the beginning bit, and then the end. It’s almost like a purgatory of sorts.
I personally loved it, If you go back an listen to it you can hear both Alex and Ronnie different growls synced in together, if you cant tell the difference then most likely ya haven't heard Alex music as much because the moment i heard the demon growl i knew right away it was Alex because he has a very unique sound to it. Ronnie's is more high pitch and Alex's is more low tone demon like, you can tell them apart. Not to mention if you have listened to Ronnie's first Falling In Reverse album that people tend to forget he had some really heavy songs in it like "(sink or swim) (Don't mess with Ouija boards) (Goodbye Graceful)" then you have become familiar with Ronnie's growls and screams as well listening more to Slaughter to Prevail and getting to know their own voice sound you can tell them apart in an instant but hey each its own. For those who cant tell i do advice listening to it over again like how Johnny said
Nail on the head with the fact that Alex was underutilized here. It's the exact same thing with the Jacoby Shaddix feature on Hip To Be Scared. I can hear him once someone pointed out that he was singing the last part, but the tones they used are so similar that i barely caught it on first listen.
Agreed. I didn't like that Ronnie and Alex was going back and forth. You could hardly tell who's screaming what. It was so confusing. lmao Also, Alex felt like he was massively held back in this track. We really didn't hear him do his lows.
I've listened to this 10 times or more already. It's absolutely brutal and brilliant. Has Ronnie done anything wrong over the last few years? Probably the best in the industry atm
Man, Jason Richardson is really helping various bands put out some bangers, between this with Falling In Reverse and then him being in the new iteration of All That Remains.
I’m with Nath. You couldn’t tell Alex was there. He really needed to be more predominant if Alex and Ronny were going to sing together. Other than that epic song. Can’t wait for the rest of the album.
I think Alex Terrible is in the song to compliment Ronnie’s vocals. Also, Ronnie has been accused so many times for years of not knowing how to the heavier vocals. So I think one of the purposes of this song was to show he can match Alex’s growls pretty damn well.
Should have definitely had Alex do stuff by himself and then duo vocals with Ronnie….. but it’s still cool I guess. I didn’t even realize it was him till I saw the comments because it was really layered
I 100% agree. They didn't utilize Alex well in this track. Alex really need to stand out with his growls but he just didn't. Ronnie and Alex just sounds way too similar and it's really difficult to even guess who is who. It's still a banger song don't get me wrong. But as a huge Slaughter to Prevail fan as well, I just wish Alex was done justice. Knowing the beast that he is. But then again, since Alex probably wasn't with the band when this song was written, and had his recordings done in Russia and they solely collaborated through online. They might not have had a chance to work well together. But that's just my speculations though...Really do wish that Alex part was done better.
New falling in reverse is amazing and this song is fucking banger, ronnie scream & growl is another level like so low and then luke holland play the drum like machine gun, i love this song yeah 🤘🔥🔥🔥
I will always want more of Alex in any song he’s featured in, but I did like how he was utilized here when considering the visuals with it. That being said, it was a little confusing until multiple listens to realize Alex’s part was sort of a lyrical battle with Ronnie. I also really enjoyed all of Tech N9ne’s part. The wicked double bass that kicks in after is siiiiick. Good luck if that’s put in a “try not to head bang challenge.” I don’t know how true it is, but I’ve read that Alex gave Ronnie “guttural” vocal lessons or pointers when they toured together last year. If that’s the case, it’s kinda cool to see them doing super harsh vocals on the track together. The more I’ve listened to the song, the somewhat less chaotic it becomes and I really enjoy it.
I totally agree with your opinion. I think it should have been more apparent what was Ronnie and what was Alex. I think watching Alex turning into the demon would have been cool af. I think the Alex Ronnie battle should have at minimum been 1 minute.
Thank you for pointing that out Nath because that was my first thought after i heard the ending. Why would you feature alex terrible but overlay your vocals higher and not give him a solo like tech 9 got. It was hard to differentiate between them except for the back and forth.
Glad you blokes got into this 👏👏 In relation to Alex’s short stint, maybe he was asked to play the part of the devil/demon/Balrog as it would be strange for Ronnie to be screaming at himself in hell…. (Although he has screamed at himself in the past 😂). The story arc may have already been created and he felt his mate Alex would be the perfect Devil. 🤷♂️ Either way, I have not stopped listening to this since its release and am blown away by the quality of the entire thing!!! 🤘🤘🤘 Vinyl pre ordered in Aus 🇦🇺 Let’s go! 👊
Hello, Can you please react to RM's new album "Right Place , Wrong Person" out on Friday May 24th. RM is a member of BTS 💜 His pre-release track is releasing on May 10th💜
" sex change could get you caught up in death range, he pled sane but really imitating Ed Gain " while friends with Alex Terrible and Tom MacDonald is crazy considering what Tom advocates for and Alex's 'past'
Two very good opinions on this. I really agree it is a great song and video. But Alex Terrible did need a better way to stand out. He wasn't as set up for that great success. But after watching the video, I went and sought more of him Alex. - Techn9ne fan
I agree with Nath. Instead of 2 dueling lows at the end Ronnie should have done highs instead to contrast which they actually did at the end when they screamed together. I saw this like 30 mins after it dropped and there were no feats in the title. Then I saw the mask drop thinking it was just an easter egg but I never realised it was actually Alex until I read the comments.
I absolutely loved it! But I also do get what you were saying about Alex. But I also know that Ronnie does nothing on accident, he knows how great Alex is, so I wonder if there might be other features with Alex on the album.
Yeah, I feel like in the opening vocal run of the Alex feature, if it was Alex solo instead of both of them together it would be better. You only hear Alex on hos own for a couple words at a time in a couple sections
Nathan nailed it! I said the same thing. Alex Terrible was underused on this song. Don’t get me wrong, the song and video was fantastic! But when you feature Alex and his insane vocals on a song you gotta utilize it properly! I knew Alex was in his song from TikTok and after hearing the song a couple times I couldn’t really hear Alex. Under utilized feature like Nathan said
We got the heaviest and most amazing song and the best video of the year, but the guy on the right was unimpressed and focused on a meaningless problem.
@@nathandjohnny maybe, but it's the best video. I was only pointing out the fact that some people do everything they can just to criticize and find reasons to be dissatisfied.
The STP mask falls into the lava right before Alex comes in on the vocals, cool little easter egg
Pretty hard to miss
@@lumbruhjack8888 no it's not. first time i seen it i thought it was debri falling in lava
@@architectsxiii5379 Its definitely meant to be relatively obvious assuming you know what the mask resembles.

Ronnie
Jason
Luke
Tech
Alex
That's CRAZY
I think Ronnie wanted Tech to be the actual feature, while the ending was a glimpse in to a proper Alex Terrible feature in the future.
I saw on instagram Alex was in some heavy prosthetics as a demon so I’m wondering if there’s a “sequel” track to this with him more featured.
Based on some other clips I’ve seen around, it may be for a video for a new STP song called “Kid of Darkness.”

Almost as a litmus test, with Alex being one of those vocalists that come to mind when thinking of filthy vocals. Ronnie was proving his range directly against one of the best currently doing it.
Great analysis
I think Alex also had the bit of growl when he got picked up by the robot and the helicopter part, felt like the growl were more Alex than Ronnie.
Yeah I thought that was Alex too
No that's Ronnie. lol
Alex is only in that final segment. I've heard Ronnie growl ever since the ETF days and that's definitely him doing the lows. Alex is very recognizable. That wasn't him.
Nope that's Ronnie
@@pikachu3b366m damn, it was so low i tought it maybe was Alex joining in on that part, but damn, Ronnie got some range holy shit.
Believe he's worked with Alex a little on his lows. That was absolutely not Alex, but Ronnie has put the work in. His lows are normally pretty lame.
My face when i listened to this earlier today 😶😁🤔😎🤘😱😵💫😌🥴 and finally, I made the exact same face as Johnny at 5:47
6:30 THANK YOU!!! Alex got lost in his feature.
I took it as a teaser for a future collab *shrug*
And Alex's mask reference is so easy to miss.
People keep saying it's a follow up from WTWB but it's a continuation from Popular Monster, hence the name of the new album
I was waiting for y’all’s to drop. Greetings from North Carolina (located just above South Carolina, in case you didn’t know)
This is the first time I've heard of this band, but their performance is crazy and cool! This channel helps me learn about a lot of different bands.
It definitely gets better with every play. I started off not vibing with it because it was more metal than their usual stuff, but after each play I find I like it more and more. The visuals are amazing and I definitely think there will be another song and video highlighting Alex Terrible’s vocals. Great job FIR!

Unique, chaotic, and bundles of fun. Sign me up!
6:56 you donee Alex's mask fall into the lava.. its quick granted. I caught it on the third watch 😂
When the robot picks him up that’s Alex the terrible.
After a few listens I really love it ❤
I agree that the Alex Terrible feature was underused. Wouldve been better imo if it was just Alex singing there. Banger song all the same.
Agreed. I didn't like that Ronnie and Alex was going back and forth. You could hardly tell who's screaming what. It was so confusing. lmao
Also, Alex felt like he was massively held back in this track. We really didn't hear him do his lows.
Something about the Aussie accent just makes me happy.
Jason Richardson co wrote this with Luke the drummer who has their own thing which is insane
Happy birthday for Saturday Johnny 🎉
Ronald is Ronnie’s first name
Accents ✅
Muscles ✅
Music ✅
This song was sooooo raw bro lol
I've listened to this 10 times or more already. It's absolutely brutal and brilliant. Has Ronnie done anything wrong over the last few years? Probably the best in the industry atm

Thanks!
Totally agree. I love Techs voice there
I agree with point about techn9nes end part, to me it started to sounded Tom McDonaldish which isn’t good. But every other part was great.

This is the first one I’ve not enjoyed by them. I’m sure it’ll be fire live.
Sorry to say, I had the exact same feeling. It’s a bit too much.
But hey, there will be a lot of people that will like it. The clip was amazing btw
Funny thing is live Ronnie doesn't do the majority of the low harsh vocals, and when he does do them they're terrible 🤣
Next song will 100% pick up where this left off with more Alex
Maybe they will continue in story with Alex in next song.

Yes, Alex was definitely too short!! You can hear Eminem and Queen vibes. Too much happens for me and stops abruptly! Maintenance...🤷♀️💪😜🤘
unfortunately the song was not about ronald mcdonald and cheeseburgers 😢
Wait did tech metal growl when he said go?!
Alex finally did his face reveal
Alex Terrible 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
W I L D
React to post malone and morgan wallen I had some help
You guys get you 87th booster?
Yeah I rekn Alex was under used I think Alex should of been in person and then transformed into demon just as alil extra flare
Total opposite of Watch the World Burn!!!
Not even, Alex literally said like 2-3 words at the end 💀
Please check out brave new world by starset
How come you haven't reacted to new windwaker yet?
I thought maybe Alex was also in the vocals at the bit with the robot and machine guns. I could be wrong. I don't think Ronnie's voice is that deep.
Look into a Juicy Lucy burger :)
I have lisented non stop 5 hours after the drop . I always end saying "Holy Fuck"
