SO SAD that Erik had to leave the band...I'm just grateful that I got to see him live with Skid Row in 2023. He was DEFINITELY the BEST singer they have had since Bas! Wishing Erik all the best, and hopefully he will be fronting Skid Row again sometime!
-I've been listening to Skid ROw since 18 and Life came out. Literal goosebumps right now. I loved Solinger live, but he couldn't have pulled this one off like Erik just did. Latin American tour, please!!!
Just when I thought Skid Row was down for the count, this guy comes along. From a longtime fan from back in the 1980s who thought that there was no Skid Row without Sebastian, I am happy to say that Skid Row is definitely back. Glad they persevered and finally located the missing ingredient after all these years.
@@anitalane3736 sorry was trying to be politically correct and not call him a Viking... He's got just enough Nordic in his voice... Is that better @Anita...
@@anitalane3736 the Swedes are considered Nordic people along with Denmark,Finland,Iceland and Norway it's a Nordic culture they're all considered Norwegian countries so do you wanna continue making yourself look stupid or we could just stop here... I mean because I can continue but maybe you'd might wanna maybe open a book or google something before you fuck with someone on the internet...
Yup, I'm happy to continue, considering I'm Norwegian. You are correct, they are all Nordic countries. People from each of the countries are not known as Norwegian though. As I said before, people from Sweden are Swedish, people from Denmark are Danish, people from Norway are Norwegian and so one. Oh and the countries collectively are known as Scandinavia. You're welcome.
You know, Sebastian Bach was insanely good...so much so that his voice was synonymous with the bands name but I have to say that #1 this singer did a great job. #2...that guitar solo has so much emotion it's unreal. I think this guitarist is soooo underrated. He's incredible.
This song was always a force of nature even during Bach's time but the way Erik sings it with respect and at point is simply phenomenal! It just shows how great a singer he is! Amazing!!!!
Fantastic job and great to see the band back where they should be...on top to the rock music scene ....P.S.> Scottie...plz get out that "slipknot" wear and get back with band in style...the new album cover was great and lets see more of the "jeans, t-shirt and con on the feet". Skid Row is back and Eric is a full on member for the cause. Nothing but respect and love.
Wonderful "Preformance." In all seriousness though. Eric sounds better live that Baz ever did. That being said, I'd still like to see a reunion with Baz and Rob.
Absolutely…it’s fat as hell and smooth as silk. Other than the hands, what’s the secret to getting that “creamy” distortion? Is it mainly a humbucker pickup with the right EQ setting?
October's Song has that kind of vibe to it.... There's more touches of the Slave to the Grind sound on this album then anything they've done since Sebastian being fired to where it at least sounds like Skid Row again... So when they write new songs with Erik's input and then use the same producer the next album will be even better...
Three songs I simply can’t separate IN A DARKENED ROOM , WASTED TIME and QUICKSAND JESUS all three of these songs is better than the other two - absolutely classic
I am being dead serious when I say this: I understand he has a long career ahead of him and he is definitely saving his voice.......But man......I feel he is holding back quite a bit. I would LOVE to see him go full throttle on a song like this!!
I feel the band is holding him back. They’re phoning it in. I don’t feel their energy is there. Watch Erik on Idol his performances are more energetic.
@@kellyh6474 His stuff with his previous band H.E.A.T, too. He goes all out when he's given the opportunity. I'd love to hear him unleash his full power on more Skid Row music like he did with H.E.A.T.
This is kind of like a really good karaoke performance. He hits all the right notes, sings on key, and sounds just vaguely familiar….but not quite the same. Scotti still sounds amazing though.
..SONG OF THE DAY!!! SKID ROW - IN A DARKENED ROOM (1991) Otra de las grandiosas bNds de los 90s sin duda alguna fue la liderada por Sebastian Bach y compañía. La canción trata sobre el ABUSO INFANTIL. La bNd no está atacando a Dios, están CUESTIONADO por qué permitiría algo tan HORRIBLE. A menos de que hayas sido abusado sexualmente de niño, NO SE PODRÍA TENER NI IDEA DE LO ABANDONADO QUE SE SIENTE UNO POR DIOS. Skid Row se metió en la mente de los abusados y expresó poéticamente los SENTIMIENTOS QUE EXPERIMENTAN. A un niño abusado se le enseña a decir que todo está bien y que Dios es bueno. MENTIRA!!!!!! UNA PERSONA NUNCA SANA OCULTANDO SUS HERIDAS Y NEGANDO SUS CICATRICES.🤘🏿ULTRAMEGAROLOTA🤘🏿03/07/2023 En el 2015 tuve oportunidad de ver el show con una bNd incompleta pero que igual me sorprendieron al brindarse todo el concierto en León Guanajuato🤘🏿
He's very good but he's no Bach sorry. Bach had crazy energy/emotion and rawness to him. They need to make new music that will give him a chance to leave his own mark. It's just too hard being compared to Bach in his prime.
They did make new music, new album came out in Oct. 2022, and they do a few songs from it in concert. Live album recorded at their London gig coming out in April. After Erik joined two years ago, they atarted writing pretty quickly for the next album, with Erik co-writing too.
This guy did ok, but these songs don't have the emotion to him like they do Sebastian. He's a good singer don't get me wrong, just missing the emotion to go with it
Yesyesyes NOT Sebastian is a good thing. Sebastian sounds awful now strangling the high notes like he does, or haven't you heard him lately? Yesyesyes Skid Row are back!
@@shellybean9 no I haven't heard him lately. This guy is good don't get me wrong. I'm an old school die hard from the beginning Skid Row fan. We are not the same.... but hey, you're entitled to your opinion
@isaputra9637 Keywords when he was young. He was often pitchy and off key live too, so there's that. You think Erik sounds like he's taking a poop, that's ok then, because him and Baz have something in common now....Baz sounds like he took a crap on the songs he used to sing so well. This isn't 30 years ago. I don't understand also, (for the other reply), how someone who hasn't heard him lately can judge Baz and Erik and they are obviously going on 'what they remember him sounding like', he doesn't sound like that anymore. That's only my opinion.
Indeed, years have passed and Sebastian’s voice is not rhe same, his style is very demanding and aging is just an inevitable thing for him and everybody else… but two aspects to consider, i d would take him anyday over this guy regardless of the limitations he has and secondly only time will tell how this dude will sing when he gets to his mid 50s . The recordings and performances with original skid Row’s lineup are testimony of how great they were together… but then life hapoens… even with his out of shape voice the original is the original… some musicians are impossible to replace… think of Ratt, motley, etc… clearly their voices a gone but the persona remainds and transcends everything
@@Rhine_Labs LOLLLLLLL well then look up him in his prime singing this. FUCKING blows this away. Guess what, news flash, Erik will get old too. He is awesome but this song is Baz's and nobody can sing it like he did when he was in his 20's
@8907 Sing it like he did, you mean pitchy and off key? He was often pitchy and off key back then. I'm sure Erik COULD sing it pitchy and off key, but why should he when he can actually do the songs justice like this. Don't get all butt hurt now, Baz was only good on record and couldn't duplicate it live. Erik on the other hand is just as good live as on record, but if nobody can sing it like Baz did back then,....I beg to differ Erik can sing it pitchy and off key if he wanted to. Btw I've seen videos of him back in the day and he definitely doesn't blow this away!
@@jaymeU2I've seen every live video of skid row from Sebastian's golden area and none come close to the studio versions. Erik comes much closer, it's like what I always dreamt of seeing Bach doing live and never found. Just watch yourself again.
@@Rhine_Labs Bingo. The vocalist is the sound , you shouldn't even try to replace them. If you're going to do that you should rename the band and never play the old songs that the original vocalist was known for.
Sadly the pathetic tribute are better in some cases then the Decrepit old people trying preform to their 20 year old self they just cannot do it. Some find their new voice some dont. Sebastian's new stuff is good in its own rip off way . Everybody Bleeds ruclips.net/video/_wx4PQRx2hA/видео.html LOL a Maxell Hi-Fidelity 1983 ruclips.net/video/Zk71h2CQ_xM/видео.html
Somebody doesn't know the definition of a tribute band. Three original memebers doing songs they wrote, so no not a tribute, which would be a band doing songs someone else wrote. Sebastian on the other hand IS doing songs someone else wrote. Js
No like no, that just hurts my ears, just NO. Sing tiktiktik tik boom as much as you like Do not touch holy ground, this is like so painful i had to turn it off quickly
This is the second comment i see of yours in a row, i think you have a problem here or u are just trying to hid the fact that you like this version lol?
@@Rhine_Labs yes but Bach is getting older this dude is 20 years younger than Bach I seen them twice in the early 90's and Sebastian Bach was incredible one of the best front men in metal history
@@Thuhtffffff exactly dude I seen them when they was touring and opening for Bon Jovi and blew them plum off the stage wasn't long after that the tour ended because Jon Bon Jovi was jealous 🤣

I love their new album!

What a great singer... He got just enough Norwegian in his voice that gives an extra edge to the classics...
Swedish

Hope you have fun.

Greatest song in the world.
Awesome song for sure.
Cannot stop listening to it, strange that a sad song make you feel good😮😮... Still LOVE them after all this years(i'm 54)🇺🇲🇸🇪🇺🇲🇸🇪🇺🇲🇸🇪
Erik has turned a classic band into a force of nature.
This song was always a force of nature even during Bach's time but the way Erik sings it with respect and at point is simply phenomenal! It just shows how great a singer he is! Amazing!!!!
Erik rocks 🤘
Such a difficult song. I've never seen Sebastian perform this well live.
Not a patch on Seb back in the 80s early 90s,not enough passion and ive seen them many times in that era
Bach and Eric have very different vocal types
Bach is like a huge engine which results difficulty in control
Bach a Rock star, erik a decent singer replacing Bach.
Sebastian is my top two singers of all time but yeah...he never nailed it live like Erik does consistently every fucking night. Love them both
I saw the first tour and the Slave to grind tour with Pantera. I've done shows with Sebastian as well. This is absolutely amazing,
Perfect. Just perfect.
Esse cara reviveu o skid row /,,/
Fantastic job and great to see the band back where they should be...on top to the rock music scene ....P.S.> Scottie...plz get out that "slipknot" wear and get back with band in style...the new album cover was great and lets see more of the "jeans, t-shirt and con on the feet".

Sooo good!
Thank you, good quality too.
Hope it earns a sub and a share
fantastic .
guy is a natural !!
Skid row is back!!
They opted for a soundalike and that's harder than just a great new singer.
Amazing 🤩
Ele é incrivelmente bom.pqp.
Gratulations Skid Row, you'll catch the best voice than the SB times 😎🤘
Freaking awesome ❤
Wonderful "Preformance." In all seriousness though. Eric sounds better live that Baz ever did. That being said, I'd still like to see a reunion with Baz and Rob.

Great performance of a really tough track, but there's definitely some processing going on with his vocal to pad it out.
Three words: Scott F. Hill
Crashdiet tattoo ❤️
他只是聲線似，台型和Sebastian天與地，無可比性，佢地所有CD，DVD都保存得好好，我少女時代的美好回憶。
He sings really really good. There is no diffefence in his voice between him and the original singer Sebastian Bach. 👍
Nice new vocalist 99%same voice like sebastian
I would love to hear him make the songs he sings well more like his own put his twists on them but we'll done 😊
Eric sounds pretty much like Seb. Anyway they both are good.
🤘😎🤘
This kid simply ripping my most treasured skid row tune ....no words
Erik can do Justice to everything Bach ever sang on in this band!
But that guitar is out of tune 😢
he hits the right notes but lacks the feeling
Ehhh debatable. He does a good job for sure but he'll never be Sebastian. And yes I do like Erik. He does the best he can.
@kingaxl1100 Back in his prime, I totally agree with you. Today, I'd take Erik over Baz live.
@@donlynch8285definitely not sounding great
Good job but Sebastian is Skid Row
Canta muy parecido a Sebastián 😊
Voz fresca nada mas
Is music making a comeback
Where was this concert held in a school assembly hall?
Iani casino bar.

I love skid row but just can’t bring myself to like this. Sebastian was skid row his voice was none like no other!
WAS being the key word there.
Eric ain't got squat on Bach
No Bach....no Skid Row
Close to Sabastian Bach. But he’s a good singer
Yeh, he prob does them better than seb ever did but he ain't got any x factor at all... its like a pretty good tribute band
Not true
He's very good but he's no Bach sorry. Bach had crazy energy/emotion and rawness to him. They need to make new music that will give him a chance to leave his own mark. It's just too hard being compared to Bach in his prime.

Cannot wait till the venue is done with renovations and start having shows again.
Not Sebastian 👎
