That song was absolutely beautiful, you guys did a great job reviewing it and it made so much more of an impact to the song. I absolutely love it and will be watching more of your videos. Great job!!!
You guys are awesome. This is one of my favorite Christian metal ballads of all time. First time I have ever heard a reaction. So fire….keep on grinding. How about doing a song from a collaboration with this artist and a few others? It’s called PROJECT AEIGIS - AND THE REST IS MYSTERY.
@@Metal777 for sure most definitely I do have all there music and it's awesome to hear they are working on a new album right now can't wait for them to release it
When I heard this song for the first time recently, it left me speechless. Such a powerful story of a man finding Jesus and the music was epic! The transitions in the music went along so well with the various parts of the story.
I always like to see reactions from people that can actually add something to what they are reacting too. In music, that usually means people that can talk about techniques, narrative, etc. But in this case, what you added is a true message from God - adding to a song that always speaks so much to me. Great reaction, guys.
Whooaaaa, your Dad listened to Petra?? They're my favorite band ever, with Theocracy as a close second! Y'all should totally do some Petra reactions! That's so awesome! By the way, great video, and easily one of the greatest songs/bands ever.
I listened to Petra too but the vocals always drowned out the music I’m disappointed to say. Theocracy has the perfect blend! And does Petra now have a 22 minute masterpiece? I cut my teeth on premium R&R bands and Theocracy beats them all including Rush!!!🔥🙌
What an awesome video guys!!!! Smokin ! 🔥🔥👍👍 This song has always been one of my favorite songs by Theocracy! So epic in the music, the poetic lyrics and in the story being told! Great feedback and discussion on the song's music and message, plus personal testimony and sharing! Lol, your dad should be a pastor! (Or is he one already? 👀😁) Or perhaps he's some sort of Biblical teacher. Great insights and discussion from both of you! A long video to be sure but WELL WORTH the time and very enjoyable watching as well. (Pastor Rob's videos can be pretty long as well, lol Lyrical Resonance's are pretty long too!.) I liked your dad's shirt 👍. Funny seeing him in a t-shirt while you are always wearing a sweater/hoodie etc.. Makes me wonder just how cold your home is. ❄️🥶🤣 P.S. your dad rocked that hairstyle, now when is it going to be --> YOUR TURN
Thanks! I was honestly really worried about uploading this considering how long it is, I'm glad it works though! This is one of my favorite songs from Theocracy as well btw, it's one of my favorite Christian metal songs in general! Do you have any suggestions for doing reactions with my dad/potentially other friends or family like this in the future? I feel like this is a series that would be fun to do but could also use some improvement. My dad just completed a seminary thing and he's preached a few sermons at my Church, so he is sort of a pastor lol Also, it would be really incredible if my channel was big enough that I could be sponsored by Fallen By Nature. If they ever reached out for something like that it would be awesome! Coincidentally Pastor Rob commented on this video btw!
@@Metal777 Here bud, I got a song recommendation for you to react to. It's called "Don't Worry, Be Happy". Ok ok jk.. 🤣😂 Humm, suggestions for a series where you do song reactions with your dad or other family members or friends. I'm guessing these would be videos you would sometimes drop on a random or scheduled basis. Perhaps as an extra video in addition to your normal reaction videos for the week. As far as who, well, you know your friends and family members. So you might have an idea as to who would fit well and enjoy recording that type of video. Your dad of course is, well your dad lol. 😂 Plus he's a gifted speaker as well and you have done two reactions with him already. So he's already on the list! 😁 Guess you'll have to think about it and see who else to add to that series lol. 😃 As far as the series title. Well maybe just kinda the same as your normal videos. "Band name" - "song name" [FRIENDS & FAMILY REACT] Lol your dad has preached after all! Called it! 😁 Yes it would be awesome if Fallen By Nature sponsored your channel! Keep posting and who knows? Regardless, you'll still be posting and putting out good content! 👍That's awesome that Pastor Rob commented on this video by the way!
@@Metal777 Stick with Theocracy! "I Am", "Hide in the Fairytale", "The Gift of Music", "30 Pieces of Silver", "Light of the World". ...... Or, branch out to Matt Smith's revolving supergroup side-project Project Aegis- "And the Rest is Mystery", "Angel in the Ashes", "Collide and Spark".
Metal is able to approach topics in unique ways and convey hard, brutal truths in a way no other genre can. This doesn't make metal better as other genres can aproach certain topics and emotions better than metal can, but there are very important coversations to be had that no other music can facilitate. Even a lot of the really violent and graphic metal is using that towards something positive (not always). I find that Christian metal has a very unique ability to address the sickness of this world, our own fallen nature, and the constant spiritual war. No other genre is able to really encapsulate the internal struggle to resist temptation for example. Here's some examples of what I'm rambling to get at from another band, Demon Hunter: Someone to Hate: A figure for the closing of time: the antithesis, defined Threat to faith untrue, I am the enemy of you All you advocates of Hell, you corruptors of free will The culling is nigh, better get your fill The World is a Thorn: Won't bow to man Won't bow to government Won't trust in a failed system of self-fulfilling lust Won't love a world where my God is mocked I defy This is what you try to sell me Subjective nothingness Pull your sickness from my throat Let me breathe the truth Let me breathe the truth
Sometimes we suffer the consequences of selfish predominance in relationships w/o God. And then this is not just a story but life itself and the change of the music is bringing us through the different memories of that experience! When we hear a song there is ALWAYS a memory good or bad attached to it!
Just finished watching, and indeed. I'm not much of a Christian metal person, but I greatly enjoy both the music and the way they deliver their message.
Yeah, I think Theocracy is one of those bands that is up to par musically even in the Non-Christian metal world. Btw, thanks for watching the full video! This is the longest video I've ever uploaded and probably will ever upload lol
If you want to check out some amazing rock you can search for "Love Comes Down XX Years live" by Rez Band. It's also christian and dealing with coming to faith yet in a very different style. It's very joyful yet also serious about the message.
Excuse me but Petra had a unique sound after listening to other songs ,because back in the day I never git into Petra because I listen to heavier stuff than them if im gonna listen to Mellower music I'll listen to Tori Amos or Queen,or Prince or M.J. but Petra IS NOT Heavy Metal .they are just à Hard Rock Band that might have some songs that id say are Heavy Hard Rock
Great reaction video! Huge Theocracy fan here! Love the insight into the scriptures your father gives. Has he started listening to Theocracy yet? God bless!
35:00 - With the caveat that I am not a believer I think I would respectfully disagree there. Other people can and often do tell you uncomfortable truths about yourself because they see the things you are blind to. And I do not believe that a connection to God is necessary for them to do so. It certainly does not hurt, I guess, but one of the marks of a true friend and just a good person in general is that they do not fear to tell you what you do not wish to hear. And the best of them can do it without judgement because that way you are more likely to listen and actually come to grips with those ugly parts of yourself that you have to acknowledge and fight against. Perhaps attempting to view yourself as God would and truly ransacking yourself to find out what darkness hides within you in order to better yourself is made easier through faith, but I do not think it is a requirement. Whether you are a believer or not facing up to the ugly sides of yourself is not easy, but I do not think faith in a higher power is a must in order to be able to do so.
Sometime you should check out the legendary Christian thrash metal bands: Believer (1st album,) Tourniquet, Vengeance Rising, The Crucified, Deliverance etc. You might like them.
Love seeing a father and son bonding like this! ❤️
That song was absolutely beautiful, you guys did a great job reviewing it and it made so much more of an impact to the song. I absolutely love it and will be watching more of your videos. Great job!!!
Thank you! This really is a beautiful song, the way the lyrics are written and how they match the music is really cool!
Alyssa you have excellent tastes and character! Now truly worship like David with the same band in “ I AM”! He IS!!!🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌

This MASTERPIECE is 2 Good to be confined to religious walls help me free it to the secular metal world!!!💪💪💪🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Guys plz do theocrasy as the world bleeds its so accurate to now in the final days
Anyone who is doing a theocracy reaction is getting a sub from me and you guys did a fantastic job on your breakdown of the song well done
Thank you! Theocracy is one of my all time favorite bands!
@@Metal777 for sure most definitely I do have all there music and it's awesome to hear they are working on a new album right now can't wait for them to release it
Theocracy “ I AM” it is! Worship!
Theocracy is supreme in metal, and Matt Smith is a rare type of genius
Yes indeed
ABSOLUTELY! Check out “ I AM” INTENSE GOD!!!!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

"Who we are is concealed by sin and revealed by him"
That really struck me. Is your own quote or did you get it somewhere else?
That line struck me as well, my dad said that it's his own quote.
@@Metal777 Thanks. A
Whooaaaa, your Dad listened to Petra?? They're my favorite band ever, with Theocracy as a close second! Y'all should totally do some Petra reactions! That's so awesome!
By the way, great video, and easily one of the greatest songs/bands ever.
We just filmed a reaction to Petra's song "Strong Convictions"! It should be out today!
@@Metal777 awesome I'll keep my eyes peeled!
I listened to Petra too but the vocals always drowned out the music I’m disappointed to say.
Theocracy has the perfect blend! And does Petra now have a 22 minute masterpiece?

Matt is a metal Hymnographer! Great commentary guys! Matt does an Apostle's work! He is amazing!
heh. Never heard that term before, but it truly is fitting in this case.

Someone to Hate:
A figure for the closing of time: the antithesis, defined
Threat to faith untrue, I am the enemy of you
All you advocates of Hell, you corruptors of free will
The culling is nigh, better get your fill
The World is a Thorn:
Won't bow to man
Won't bow to government
Won't trust in a failed system of self-fulfilling lust
Won't love a world where my God is mocked
I defy
This is what you try to sell me
Subjective nothingness
Pull your sickness from my throat
Let me breathe the truth
Let me breathe the truth
Just a request, but I would love to hear your's and your father's reactions to Theocracy's I AM or Easter!
Definitely! I love both of those songs so it could be a lot of fun to show them to my dad!
There you go!!!!💪🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Only 8 minutes into the video rn but damn, this song is epic. The music snob in me approves
Ikr, this song is so good!

Rez was great I loved the street sound of Glen and Wendy Kiser
I liked Colors a lot!💪

And Theocracy “ Twist of Fate” that’s mentioned in this song has the most incredibly difficult and amazing ending I ever experienced ANYWHERE!!!!
But wait young guy U forgot to give ur Rating on the song and ask ur dad what he would rate the song from 1 to 10.if u could reply on this an thanx
Oh yeah I did forget, I'd give the song a 10/10, I'll ask my dad what he'd give it tho asap

Awesome! I'll look into these bands, I've been wanting to check out Believer and Tourniquet for a while now!
@@Metal777 I would love to see your reaction to them. They were some of my favorites back in the early days of Christian metal.
Try Theocracy “ Twist of Fate” it’s mentioned in this song!
But this THIS is a MASTERPIECE of ANY music genre!!!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
