Every Time I Die "Thing With Feathers" | Aussie Metal Heads Reaction

[@Deady5225]

Man, it reminds me so much of thrice, got that huge vibes but it's so good. This album is relentless, absolute banger

[@derekg.1196]

Totally agree with you 👍🏽 💯

[@curtiswilson3569]

I got the same feeling from it.

[@alexadennis770]

One of my top bands! I took my daughter to the last nationwide warped tour festival and she was able to meet all the guys from Every Time I Die, it was amazing!! This song blew my mind!!

[@Adrian-vk1cu]

Absolutely beautiful song. Absolute favorite band of all time.

[@seanb50d]

Watching this video back now, how foreshadowing is this that Keith walks away from the band right at the beginning of the video saying I think we're done here.. kinda creepy

[@BlehgarySD]

When this song pops up on the album it’s such a huge change of pace, but so absolutely amazing. Every song felt like my new favorite and the this song hit and I was like, “fuck… that’s it”

[@jbasti227]

Pretty much. This song is the eye of the storm of Radical. Hard to pick a favorite but between this, Colossal Wreck, and White Void, this one is slightly favored because of the emotional aspect.

[@lifeissometal]

Hoooooooly. That was so good… Captivating. Chills. I’m not crying, you’re crying 😭

[@lifeissometal]

I feel gutted 🥺

[@connormacleod3590]

God dude... I've watched this music video so many times, and every time Keith puts his hands in his pockets at the end I tear up. It's so fucking good.

[@danwelsh6706]

Keith's vocal reeks of muse and that blew my mind away and that RIFFF

[@isabellarocks1000]

It kills me that you havnt reacted to this entire album yet. It is fantastic. All this and war and the whip lyrically are so badass 🤘

[@nathandjohnny]

We don’t do album reactions.. not yet

[@Echis21]

I know Johnny mentioned "Revival Mode," but this song reminds me a lot of "Map Change" too. Map Change is heavier musically throughout, but they are similar to me with how emotionally connected and metaphorical the lyrics are to their respective lyrical themes (their hometown Buffalo and their late sister). Plus musically the outro of "Map Change" has the same only-Jordan-and-Keith-acoustic vibe as this outro.

[@Bootleg__VHS__Tape]

Phenomenal track, please cover more of the new album!

[@Joseph-R]

Hope you dudes get around to reacting to some more songs off the album. Love this song, but the rest of the album is absolutely savage.

[@ragingstorm79]

First part of the song is totally Radiohead - Street Spirit (Fade Out), perfect.. such a great tune and great tribute. Make sure you check out the album, so damn good and just riff-tastic.

[@RC-mv7zz]

Thought the same

[@DaedalusX86]

Two of the best bands still going

[@bliss1979]

Love to see Johnny getting real emotional to the lyrics but basically, how could you not. New viewer and subscriber here.

[@vaderfreya]

This song takes me somewhere else! Keith's lyrics are something else. Have you guys had a chance to listen to the whole album yet?

[@doomhag]

Reminds me of Karnivool. The whole album is a fucking BANGERRRR. had it on repeat since it dropped 🤟🤟

[@joshhickey541]

fav band, cant do wrong,

[@EetYajKundorp]

Great reaction, great song. Reminds me (thematically) of the Tool song "Wings for Marie Pt. 1 & 2" with the loved one suffering a terrible disease and finally succumbing to it. Just found out these guys are coming to my hometown in March of 2022 with Underoath. Thinking I am definitely going to get tickets to that one.

[@PeacewiththeGraces]

Ugh, ETID can do no wrong. Like I told Johnny on IG, this record is going to be on repeat for me haha But, I never realized what this song was about until now nor the lyrics. That opening lyric gives me chills.

[@DooDooDaddyTV]

Have you guys checked out the entire album? They are just incredible even after 22 years. You both gotta get out to Buffalo NY for their christmas show some year, I know thats quite the haul but holy shit its so much fun.

[@mikew8880]

“Hope” is the THING WITH FEATHERS - That perches in the soul - And sings the tune without the words - And never stops - at all - And sweetest - in the Gale - is heard - And sore must be the storm - That could abash the little Bird That kept so many warm - I’ve heard it in the chillest land - And on the strangest Sea - Yet - never - in Extremity, It asked a crumb - of me. - Emily Dickinson

[@EP-Bossman]

I'm getting massive Arcane Roots vibes from this !

[@jvegasman]

Radical dude, have you seen them live?

[@coombes40]

BANGER!

[@andrewrobertson179]

Sleeper 1972…I cry at that song all the time 😂 this is such an awesome collab. ETID can do no wrong

[@danwelsh6706]

We may be watching a new evolution of ETID

[@codymason97]

That outro riff reminded me of a song from city and colour

[@miss5sos192]

liquid shat, this is why we love u johnny

[@davidhayes4840]

Cool song. The vocals remind me Fair to Midland

[@K1NGD0M]

I hovered over the video and the first thing I saw was Johnny's crotch. God I love it here 😂

[@curtiswilson3569]

Manchester Orchestra are one of the best bands ever. ETID bringing in that flavor makes this my favorite song this year.

[@theopinionindustry1136]

Street Spirit - Radiohead, Aerials - SOAD, and this

[@prestongalindo1499]

Dude on the left reminds me of Paul rudd🤣

[@ratta_tat]

I'm curious if Keith is giving a nod to the Emily Dickinson poem of the same name....

[@andrewb5024]

almost certainly. dude was an english teacher before doing music full time. he also has a bunch of other literature references through the years. shakespeare, dostoevsky...

[@ratta_tat]

@@andrewb5024 yep! It would just be so much more poignant because the "thing" in Dickinson's poem.....is hope.

[@jasonbates9906]

He mentioned on an Instagram interview the day after the album released that the title and line come explicitly from Dickinson.

[@michaelwalls1710]

Nice reaction!! You guys should react to Take Your Pick on the new Ice Nine Kills album

[@prestongalindo1499]

Also RIP ETID😔

[@badgerstorm6141]

Took me way too long to get into these guys.

[@Jaquesy004]

Any more movie trailer breakdowns like the Mortal Kombat trailer? If so.... The Batman 🤘🏻

[@stevemoore3039]

Maccccaasss coffeeee :(

[@Radamb38]

I may be speaking blasphemy here..lol..😂but I'm picking up Foo Fighter vibes?

[@lustalgia...]

more Thrice for me, rad sog
