AJ is such a cool dude. They were opening for OM&M a couple years ago and it was right after a mass shooting happened, and he gave such a nice heartfelt speech about loving each other and to stop gun violence, and it was very moving. Plus I got to shake his hand after the concert which was awesome. Not to mention they are incredible live.
@@AW-qz4kk I'm always baffled that people actually believe that when it is so easy to correlate mass shootings and no gun control... Literally everywhere besides the US, shootings aren't even a consideration exactly because people don't have guns.
great dudes... used to run into them as they were at shows watching their favorite bands ... got to love bands supporting other bands even when they are not even playing that show
@@METALBIRB have you heard UABB already? i don't see you react any song from them on your channel. i highly recommended this band if you haven't heard yet
@@METALBIRB yo man, beed fallowing your chanel for about a year now, really want you to try Fire From The Gods - In To The Blue, this one really impresive
You should check out the band called Backwordz. The lead vocalist Eric July was the former vocalist for Fire from the Gods. He is a youtuber too with like 350k+ subs!
Totally agree on your comment about bringing in different genres and sounds of various countries and cultures. Metal needs more diversity and it’s awesome how much it’s expanded in the last ten years.
Yeah the funny thing is the Vocalist of Backwordz is the original vocalist of Fire from the godz and he wrote this song and fire from the gods found this guy because he matched Backwordz Vocalist Mannerisms
@@Wessohot Eric is irreplaceable 👊. It's funny because, at least to my knowledge, Fire From the Gods doesn't touch on this sound as much beyond this song. Most of their tracks are more-or-less cut and dry alt-metalcore tracks.
@@ScreenSpidah true Eric is irreplaceable and thats why I don’t like fire from the gods much because they tried to replace eric with a guy that favors him and everything
@@Wessohot I like some of their songs, objectively speaking. Subjectively speaking, it's totally disrespectful what they did to Eric, from replacing him with a copy on purpose, and releasing his song as their own.
@@ScreenSpidah i mean eric even called them out on the song Be Great and he doesn’t hate them for it anymore doing because he trying to be great and not petty
The only thing I don't like about FFTG is they seem to have a lot of similarities in their sound, song structure, and vocal delivery across their discography. I do like their sound and I can jam a couple tracks pretty hard, especially in a playlist where you get a sweet change from whatever the previous song was, but for me, when I dove into their discography, it was a little flat from cover to cover. I know this might not be a popular opinion, but hey, its' mine. Great reaction Birb!!!
I got to see them when they toured with Five Finger Death Punch/Three Days Grace/Bad Wolves and they are SO GOOD live. AJ absolutely kills the vocals live and he's such an amazing frontman
I'm fairly certain Eric July wrote this song yea. Eric was really really cringe about it tho. He liked to pretend that he was a better frontman/vocalist than AJ is and would shit talk the band for replacing him with someone similar to him in style (even though Eric is the one that chose to leave the band because the band wanted to focus on going on tour and stuff) I wanted to like Backwordz but even as someone with a degree in political science and loves political stuff, Backwordz was way too edgy with their lyrics/songs. It just felt like the highschooler who just learned what libertarianism is and decided to form a generic metalcore band but also wanted to include his friend who was super into rap to be in the band. Eric's super talanted but i just couldn't get into their stuff sadly.
@@MaPleWoRlDOrder That actually not what he did. He never said he was a better vocalist. He ragged on the band and the new vocalist for trying to mimic him as much as possible
@@GarettChamberlin So he wanted them to switch up a style that worked enough for them to go on tour? That's hilarious. I agree with Stock Master, Backwordz lyrics are incredibly cringe it's like they were written by a 15 year old lol. Both bands are pretty generic metalcore though.
@@WindyCityNick Yeah that's funny since touring is basically the only way to bands to make money and continue as a band for years to come apart from merch sales
Bid of a throwback , but this song is sooo good. Never liked much of their other work, aside from their early early stuff with Eric as the vocalist. BUT their song End Transmission is sooooo good too
I think I requested this song last year lol better late than never lol this band goes hard let's see some more of these guys check out the song (right now )
Another one of their songs to check out is Truth to the weak (Not Built To Collapse) its off their newest album. Saw these guys open up at warped tour and they put on such a great performance.
I think it’s time to hit up some Dirty Loops again. ‘Rock You’ is the catchiest song around. You’ll love it. And yes I’m first and foremost a metal head! Awesome reaction ❤️🔥💪🏼😊
These folks are breath of fresh air, they blend rap, metalcore, alt.metal and prog rock vibes into something really creative. I wish you have started with Narrative album review, because songs like In Spite Of Doubt and Into The Blue are so powerful in terms of emotions. But if you gon't go that far at least react to The Voiceless and End Transmission. Their early stuff is fun to listen to, but it has more from rnb and post-hardcore because of the previous vocalist. Btw, you definitely need to listen Oceans of Slumber, very proggy and atmospheric type of music despite having death/doom influence as well (jazzy too!) it is so cool to have black musicians on the metal since they have unique vocal range that is so well adapted to any type of music.
FFTG are pretty amazing, their new albums are real sick tbh. However, I think is kinda sad that this song in particular wasn't written by the band. It was written by Eric July, former FFTG vocalist, and it seems this is not acknowledged anywhere. Before someone jumps on me, FFTG had songs with him and the difference on lyrics structure when Eric July was in the band and now is just enourmous. That being said, I saw them live yesterday in The Forge, IL and they were killing it. Amazing band, AJ is such an amazing vocalist and is pretty vocal about social/political problems. He stays true to the message being delivered through their songs. I hope to see them again live sometime.
I cannot believe you've never listened to these guys lol they are fucking incredible, the lead singer has some of the best range of vocals out there, their best song is End Transmission, that song is just incredible across the board, so glad you enjoyed these guys Birb
BTW I would check out The Fever 333 next for this nu-metal revival worship. They're a lot like Rage Against The Machine without the flashy guitar work.
Not huge on these guys, but I like some of their songs like this one. They're basically Sevendust (clean vocals) meets Skindred (rapping + instrumentals).
If you want a few examples of the vocalists range (fairly sure his name is AJ Channer?) check out End Transmission, All My Heroes Are Dead and Right Now, those tracks are just bangers
"Yeah I'm drinking wine, im fancy af. I got caviar in my pocket it too. That'd be awesome actually... Pretty gross too 🥴" that shit had me laughing for some reason 😂
You should react to a Backwordz song. The front man, Eric July, used to be the vocalist for Fire From the Gods. Pretty sure this was the song that Eric wrote before he left the band.
Gotta check out End Transmission by them. Easily their best song. It’s definitely more melodic and focuses more on the metal side of things rather than rap
These guys are so good.!♡\m/\m/🖤🖤 you have to do more.!♡ yes his vocals are just incredible.!♡ it gives me goosebumps and chills everytime.!♡ the whole band is great.!♡ Definitely check out more forsure.!♡\m/\m/🖤🖤
Do end transmission next.!♡ or right now.!♡ the voiceless is great too. But right now that one deals with worldly issues like what's going on right now.!♡\m/\m/
Ah shit man your just finding this Fire 🔥ehh? Extremely underrated band and Frontman. FFTG original frontman is nothing to scuff at neither check out Be Great by Backwordz!!!
AJ is such a cool dude. They were opening for OM&M a couple years ago and it was right after a mass shooting happened, and he gave such a nice heartfelt speech about loving each other and to stop gun violence, and it was very moving. Plus I got to shake his hand after the concert which was awesome. Not to mention they are incredible live.
Unfortunately criminals dont care for that sentiment. If it wasnt guns it would be something else
@@zerozeeros exactly. Only way to stop gun violence is that everyone has guns too. Only takes one good guy with a gun to end a mass shooting.
@@AW-qz4kk I'm always baffled that people actually believe that when it is so easy to correlate mass shootings and no gun control... Literally everywhere besides the US, shootings aren't even a consideration exactly because people don't have guns.
Really happy you enjoyed this track. This song has been around for a good bit but has become even more relevant than ever.
Sort of. It only addresses one aspect but ignores every other one. The song is cool but its very misguided
@@zerozeeros at least they're saying All Lives Matter
This band is insane. About time you reviewed them.
Newest album is very butt/rap-rock heavy but still decent.
He did say he just heard of them
great dudes... used to run into them as they were at shows watching their favorite bands ... got to love bands supporting other bands even when they are not even playing that show
can't believe you didn't heard this band before. 9m+ views that's alot
Love it how some of you think I've heard almost everything already. I take it as a compliment haha
@@METALBIRB have you heard UABB already? i don't see you react any song from them on your channel. i highly recommended this band if you haven't heard yet
@@METALBIRB yo man, beed fallowing your chanel for about a year now, really want you to try Fire From The Gods - In To The Blue, this one really impresive
BANGER
Edit: Even the acoustic version they did of this song is sick.
That version is one of my favorite acoustic versions of an original track ever. They're extremely talented.
Thank you!
You should check out the band called Backwordz. The lead vocalist Eric July was the former vocalist for Fire from the Gods. He is a youtuber too with like 350k+ subs!
Yeah definitely like backwordz more
Yes
Yes Eric actually wrote this song.
Totally agree on your comment about bringing in different genres and sounds of various countries and cultures. Metal needs more diversity and it’s awesome how much it’s expanded in the last ten years.
As for me who searches and finds new bands constantly There is a lot of diversity in metal but often it just doesn't go that well together
Backwordz next, backwordz next!

I don't hear nearly enough people talking about Fire From the Gods. Such a solid band.
The only thing I don't like about FFTG is they seem to have a lot of similarities in their sound, song structure, and vocal delivery across their discography. I do like their sound and I can jam a couple tracks pretty hard, especially in a playlist where you get a sweet change from whatever the previous song was, but for me, when I dove into their discography, it was a little flat from cover to cover.

Will pass this on to customer service dept. 🤙🏼
I didnt expect this reaction at all.
Damn, I‘m hyped.
This is a band that got me into metal.
The singers voice displays slot of the same soul and grit as the singer from Sevendust
I got to see them when they toured with Five Finger Death Punch/Three Days Grace/Bad Wolves and they are SO GOOD live. AJ absolutely kills the vocals live and he's such an amazing frontman
The WWE PPV Theme tour 😂
I'm pretty sure their previous vocalist wrote the lyrics for this song. He started a new band called Backwordz, you should check them out.

@@MaPleWoRlDOrder That actually not what he did. He never said he was a better vocalist. He ragged on the band and the new vocalist for trying to mimic him as much as possible

@@GarettChamberlin So he wanted them to switch up a style that worked enough for them to go on tour? That's hilarious. I agree with Stock Master, Backwordz lyrics are incredibly cringe it's like they were written by a 15 year old lol. Both bands are pretty generic metalcore though.
@@WindyCityNick Yeah that's funny since touring is basically the only way to bands to make money and continue as a band for years to come apart from merch sales
Thanks for the love and reaction! On tour with Norma Jean check your local venue to see if we’re heading to your city!
Man it’s been a min since I’ve heard this tune. Love it
Dude you gotta check out their song Right Now, it's a banger too
This one's been on my playlist ever since it dropped. Love the energy, love the flow, love the message. ❤️❤️❤️
Their song End Transmission is my favorite, totally different vibe. Much more melodic
Bid of a throwback , but this song is sooo good. Never liked much of their other work, aside from their early early stuff with Eric as the vocalist. BUT their song End Transmission is sooooo good too
I think I requested this song last year lol better late than never lol this band goes hard let's see some more of these guys check out the song (right now )
This band is amazing, please react to more by them, I suggest to listen to “the voiceless” next
This song was fire, several years back, At least locally here in Texas... its good to see that this song has stood the test of time.
Another one of their songs to check out is Truth to the weak (Not Built To Collapse) its off their newest album. Saw these guys open up at warped tour and they put on such a great performance.
Heard of this band forever ago surprised you of all people havent heard this yet lol
Check out their song "Right Now" - Its more relevant than ever and an absolute banger
Check out their song End Transmission
I think it’s time to hit up some Dirty Loops again. ‘Rock You’ is the catchiest song around. You’ll love it. And yes I’m first and foremost a metal head! Awesome reaction ❤️🔥💪🏼😊
wooow wow, never heard of them, they are fking awesome!
I found this band just after "Evolve" came out. Amazing band!
I love this track and the message behind it!! 🤘🤘🤘

These guys are dope! Every one of their albums is gold.
Hell yeah, not enough people react to this band. Especially this song though, it's so good.
You should check out the acoustic version!
It's about damn time someone checked these guys out they are beast
Definitely gotta check out the song the voiceless it's amazing
Wow I heard a song before you?!? Awesome song
Yo, Fire From The Gods is, well, pretty fire! Seriously check out their last album, it's SO good
Listen to the two full length albums from these guys, they're amazing.
I call it Nu Reggae Metal and it is so FIRE! Pun intended haha. React to American Sun (the song) it is so sick man.
I cannot believe you've never listened to these guys lol they are fucking incredible, the lead singer has some of the best range of vocals out there, their best song is End Transmission, that song is just incredible across the board, so glad you enjoyed these guys Birb
BTW I would check out The Fever 333 next for this nu-metal revival worship. They're a lot like Rage Against The Machine without the flashy guitar work.
And they have one of the sickest drummers alive.
Trust me he knows Fever333 🥵🥵🥵
It's called rapcore :) My favorites by FFTG are Evolve and Into the Blue!
Another great one that has a similar sound is DVSR - Bloodlust.
You and everyone else on the internet needs to check out Above, Below's new song "Melting Amber" out. That shit goes SO hard.
Not huge on these guys, but I like some of their songs like this one. They're basically Sevendust (clean vocals) meets Skindred (rapping + instrumentals).
What a fuckin vocalist... Kinda mad I didn't really get into this band when this song first came out.
If you want a few examples of the vocalists range (fairly sure his name is AJ Channer?) check out End Transmission, All My Heroes Are Dead and Right Now, those tracks are just bangers
Check out They Don’t Like It (feat. Sonny from P.O.D.). So good
Damn, P.O.D! Now there’s a name I haven’t seen in a while!
Yeah the vocalist is very versatile & they have many great tracks man, should dig deeper for sure!
Aye some FFTG love. Should check out their song "Right Now" next.
You really need to listen to their song "Voiceless" my absolute favourite of theirs.
Awesome band and great reaction
Gotta hear that new Ghost Iris
Glad I'm not the only one who keeps caviar in their pocket
best part of the reaction is at @1:13 xD
"Yeah I'm drinking wine, im fancy af. I got caviar in my pocket it too. That'd be awesome actually... Pretty gross too 🥴" that shit had me laughing for some reason 😂
React to Pretenders (single version) and Right Now please !
Badass band man, you should check out their other song "The End Transmission"
love this band!
Gotta react to FFTG Right Now! 🔥🔥🔥
Yoo these guys are awesome
You should react to a Backwordz song. The front man, Eric July, used to be the vocalist for Fire From the Gods. Pretty sure this was the song that Eric wrote before he left the band.
It is the song he wrote before he left
Noir from Reflections!!
Sick! Reminds me of “Candiria”
Gotta check out End Transmission by them. Easily their best song. It’s definitely more melodic and focuses more on the metal side of things rather than rap
You gotta go react to more of this band 👌
Mate you should react to russian circles - 309 live studio vertion just amazing jazz doom instrumental of a song mate
React to Backwordz next. Self-Ownership is a great track to start with. Be Great is also awesome too.
Have you ever heard/reacted to DevilDriver?
Discrepancies next!!!!
The lead singer is one of my boys brother
These guys are so good.!♡\m/\m/🖤🖤 you have to do more.!♡ yes his vocals are just incredible.!♡ it gives me goosebumps and chills everytime.!♡ the whole band is great.!♡ Definitely check out more forsure.!♡\m/\m/🖤🖤
React to live studio version of it
Check out Break the Cycle🙏
Do end transmission next.!♡ or right now.!♡ the voiceless is great too. But right now that one deals with worldly issues like what's going on right now.!♡\m/\m/
Fire from the gods - the voiceless!
You should check out Kublai Khan ,
You should try the band discrepancies ....
How have you never reacted to this?
Should have picked end transmission.
Wine From The Gods
This band is way too good for our ears
Btw you have to react to voiceless this song shows his range
Ah shit man your just finding this Fire 🔥ehh? Extremely underrated band and Frontman. FFTG original frontman is nothing to scuff at neither check out Be Great by Backwordz!!!
Hey man, I love your channel and reactions, you should deffinetily check out and react to Awake The Mutes - Salt.
This band is fire. I'm suprised you never heard of them.
I call them Reggae Nu Metalcore lol
Eric July is a true libertarian.
wait I have Deja Vu I thought you were reacted to this
You didnt hear this before??? Oh maaan :D
If you take out the rapping, this song reminds me a ton of Gemini Syndrome
Red head...guy.. 😪
lmao "anyway... music."
Backwordz is sooo much better. And Eric July is a very intelligent dude.
It is POD with a better singer.
END TRANSMISSION NOW.
He’s late to the party lol
No expiration date on music brotha!
@@METALBIRB for sure haha just figured you heard of them before
