A MESSAGE TO PEOPLE THAT CHEAT... FVCK OFF!! | Wage War - "The River" (REACTION!!)

[@RApollos107]

“So this song is called The River” “What’s it about?” “Breakdowns... oh and something about getting cheated on... but mostly breakdowns... in fact, all of the breakdowns”

[@SlippySteveUK]

Laughs in 'Breakdown of sanity' everything is Breakdown xD

[@andiCNH]

Breakdowns by the river

[@tiagofrancisco6955]

COUGH COUGH COUGH BLEGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

[@BoSS-dw1on]

It’s about breakups..... and breakdowns.

[@thelightvampire2337]

Some bands can be stupid because which deathcore band sings about relationships? Metal is about shock people with dark and extreme lyrics not about bad relationships

[@Mattallica13526]

How many breakdowns you want in the song? Wage War: Yes

[@xJCOx]

Yo. My dude. Thank you. Never heard of this band before. My ex wife was having an affair with another dude while i was in Iraq in 2009. These lyrics speak 1000% to how i felt when i found out. This shit is so dope. Gonna be listening to alot more of them now. Again, thank you.

[@kevinbourne3017]

I didn't really know them at all until seeing them at Warped Tour last year at Atlantic City. I have now seen them 3 times and they are one of my favorites.

[@nashgross8658]

One of the best metalcore bands in the game you're in for a treat

[@PleasePaintHighElves]

Very common because you guys are away for such long periods of time. I banged plenty of dudes wives when they were overseas.

[@frij0lec0re]

Johnny Cash and Never Enough for the ultimate break up songs

[@biased1662]

Sorry about that, dude. It makes me thankful that I married a good Christian girl. Thanks for your service!

[@kevindriskell7481]

FINALLY! I HAVE BEEN REQUESTING THIS SONG FOR LIKE TWO YEARS!!

[@tsj_1994]

Alex you're making great decisions with Wage War. Keep it going with these: Crystal Lake - AEON Silent Planet - Trilogy Silent Planet - Panic Room Silent Planet - Northern Fires (Guernica) Oceans Ate Alaska - Hansha Oceans Ate Alaska - Escapist

[@SchmuckMorris]

SILENT PLANET YES PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOd I think theyll be his favorite band by far. They have EVERYTHING he needs.

[@michaelwave1034]

i cant recommend oceans ate alaska enough

[@emsantos4501]

[@GoodbyeMisery]

Absolute yes to Crystal Lake. Any Crystal Lake song will be a banger

[@paul1991ish]

He's not ready for crystal lake.

[@mattm121]

Both Wage War songs you reacted to were rare ones where there's no clean singing. Clean singer in this band has the best voice, Witness would be a great song to react to :) Keep up the great work mate

[@namenlos2078]

ähm no

[@bryanlenihan5012]

I love Cody and he's gotten much better but Jason from Bury Tomorrow>

[@bryanlenihan5012]

In my person opinion

[@kevinangermeier6469]

Witness is a banger!!

[@Wollestar]

I would prefer Wage War without clean vocals. I can bare them on the first two albums, but not on the third. They just destroy everything. The only bands where I like clean vocals in metal core are The Sorrow and Killswitch Engaged. Other than that, metal core should have been like Maroon (german band). Stay brutal is a good example or Vermin. Actually all their songs. And another great band is Heaven Shall Burn. If metal core would have stood this way😭 And yes I know, I am a whiny bitch. Still dislike clean vocals in metal core😅

[@ryandickson940]

YES! Love me some wage war...hey check out some AFTER THE BURIAL - Lost in the Static next!

[@Synskee]

Pray for Rain is underrated right now. Insane song!

[@gbamike64]

If you haven't yet, I'd absolutely recommend checking out their song "Johnny Cash."

[@elliotfors]

Maybe a dual reaction with the stripped version as well? :)

[@gbamike64]

Absolutely! I think the ONLY way to get the full experience of the song is to listen to both versions. The stripped version you fully understand get a feel for the sorrow and regret behind the lyrics, and with the original you get the sheer raw emotion behind it.

[@silentjay-cy8ye]

Or Gravity.

[@thirdstagenavigator]

Alex, thanks for your message at the beginning of the video. My brother teaches English at a school in South Korea, and they just had a case of the coronavirus a block from where he works. I’ve been a wreck lately and needed to hear that bit of encouragement. You're a genuinely good person. You care. I won’t leave any reaction requests here. Just a big THANK YOU!

[@wolfbassgames1244]

This is a song my dad can relate to. Over the past year, my mom has been cheating on him for no reason. So you can only imagine what he’s been going through. Seeing his suffering and hearing this song, it’s so relatable for him.

[@billycorrigan560]

I like this side of Alex. He's just so comfortable in front of a camera, and I think he had a really clear mindset in this video, he didn't stumble over his words at all. Nice

[@christophweimann2545]

Please react to POLARIS 🔥🔥

[@Pyr0nEx]

All these years and he still hasn’t. I’ve really wanted him to react to other Aussie metalcore like Alpha Wolf or Northlane as well but I don’t think he’s done anything by them either

[@ryanscott6852]

As I Lay Dying: Nothing Left. Then a follow up reaction of As I Lay Dying: The Sound of Truth. The videos go together and are amazing!

[@Underdog..]

This is why i love metal!! The lyrics are so powerfull and they sing from the heart. So good!!

[@philly24491]

Come on Alex!! We are all waiting for you to do the new trivium song!!! Get on it bro!!

[@cjp10102]

Saw these guys in January, and actually met them, bunch of awesome guys. When they played this song, the crowd was going nuts, after the line “rest in piece”, there was a huge wall of death! Best gig I’ve been too, and I’ve seen the likes of Slipknot, Amon Amarth and Rammstein

[@saltyplayer491yt5]

im really glad you finally reacted to this song. ive been using this song to help get over a girl that cheated on me during our two year relationship. granted, the relationship was sorta spiralling down anyway, but like, still. why cheat? ya know. all you're gonna do is hurt the other person more. and it seems like most of the time when someone cheats on another person, they end up single and hurt as well. thank you alex for all that you do, your videos are amazing and i've been a long time fan. keep up the great work man. also, more wage war please lol

I love that for the second half of the song you forgot you were a KZbin and you were just sucked into the song. I love that moment with a new song where you just need to give this new shit 100% of your attention.

[@Txguy264]

Waaaage Waaaar. Hell yeah! After the Burial next maaaan.

[@shanelewis5970]

I remember watching your videos as a hip hop head. And now you’re out here understanding the lyrics of metal music. Bravo

[@lildukky]

After the burial-lost in the static plzzzzz. I just found out I’m in the top 1% of wage war listeners on Spotify and it made my year honestly so I love this

[@eicegal4854]

Wage war is one of my all time favorite bands! Saw them live twice here in Munich! Still, those two songs you reacted to are one of the few without the clean vocals that you love so much. So please keep listening and reacting to wage war. Maybe to the songs ,don’t let me fade away‘ , ‚my brave is mine to dig‘ , or if you‘d like something a little more chill the songs ,gravity‘ and ‚me against my self‘. Oh and also please listen to those countless comments about ‚fit for a king‘. They‘re frickin awesome aswell. Keep up the great content! Cheers
