Spirit Box - Holy Roller (Pianist continues his exploration of heavy metal)

[@Sauerkrautbooger]

I just love this channel very much, you two are just pure chemistry, big fan, thank you guys, just a small suggestion, i think it's time for another Tool video

[@johnsmith970]

That piano intro was dope 🔥

[@bailey5721]

Yayyy Spiritbox reaction! Good morning to me!! Much love for you guys and this channel

[@Virelia-V]

omg, i literally just searched for this reaction, what are the chances you just upload it!

[@Greatmeasures]

That’s weeeeeeeiiiiiirrd!

[@eduardomeiger]

Same

[@Magdalena8008s]

Mike Stringer is an epic guitar player. Anyone who knows Mike knows how damn good he is. But theres something beautiful about a song like this where its the most simple and basic riff played throughout yet be one of Mikes most awesome songs hes written.

[@TaraRyze]

One of my fav Radiohead songs!! Loved it Judson! 👏🏻 Love Spiritbox! Chelsea Wolfe does a beautifully haunting version of Cellar Door!

[@lcozens1]

More Spiritbox would be great!

[@Sauerkrautbooger]

..And maybe show Judson the Meshuggah Clockworks Drum cam video, it will sure be a blast for judson

[@Polkametal666]

Love Spirit Box, and my kid and I are going to go see them in April!!! Great video as always guys, I love Judson’s deep dive tangents they always bring a smile to my face.

[@chairmanofthebored6860]

Grenade Suppository is a great name for a death metal band.

[@cheeser164]

Exit Music! Love it. Need more Radiohead. Personally, I think Son of Jud would appreciate the song Constance by Spiritbox

[@Pigdestroyer666]

Thanks guys! I was just about ready for Judsons dissertation on The Book of Job, oh well, maybe next time. Stay awesome.

[@NutOnYoutube]

more spirit box please

[@vibin_psilocybin]

That electronic passage was sick

[@archerdoubleO]

I'm sure I'm lacking enough exposure to modern bands, but as a longtime Meshuggah fan, I feel like Spiritbox legit made the low djenty 8string guitar register their own in a way that I haven't heard others do really. It's not a gimmick, it's not a copycat, it's clearly inspired by in the best of ways, but this guitarist feels like he really took the door meshuggah (and korn and devin townsend and others) kicked in and made it his own, with his own vision for it and it blends so well with Courtney's range. Probably my favorite modern band I discovered. Have you heard Bleach Bath Richard? Earlier one of theirs but one of my favorites for sure.

[@Shayquaza]

Show him some Thrown!

[@Bullski52]

Love u guys! Testament time, Richard?😊

[@ryandonavon7451]

they literally Homemade the video during the covid lockdown!

[@Celinoz]

Would love to see you guys react to North Star of Nija, From the Inside or Black Mountain By Orbit Culture

[@picax8398]

i cant wait to see them in april!

[@rogersartandsolutions5074]

Ne Obliviscaris - As Icicles Fall

[@DM-pv4rw]

Funny, I just watched this, and thought "I wonder if they've done Gojira". I find your Gojira video for The Art of Dying from a year ago, and it starts with Judson covering Paranoid Android, and Richard wearing a Dysmorfectomy shirt. Now a year later you're covering Exit Music (For a Film) and Gangrenectomy shirt. Also Richard is wearing the same exact sweatshirt and iconic Nike cap. Probably the same jeans too lol.

[@Greatmeasures]

Definitely the same jeans..~j

[@Greatmeasures]

@@DM-pv4rw I’m nothing if not consistent. -Richard

[@ZaBiMaRuSz]

GANGRENACHIIIIJAJAAJJA gotta love Judson! lmao

[@picax8398]

you gotta show him some earlier stuff, anything off the singles collection, or the beauty of suffering

[@The_KlaVra]

You guys should check White Ward - Leviathan. Its black metal but with a nice twist. I think Judson would LOVE IT.

[@Lowmac3101]

Got some midsommar vibes there

[@archerdoubleO]

Yea I'm also wondering if that was an inspiration.

[@johnstampii5620]

I've been saying it for 25 years (since Ozzfest)... IF you enjoy Spiritbox, listen to OTEP Sevas Tra album, "TRIC," "Battle Ready," "Filthee"... some good ones on there

[@darmakx99]

Hahaha, yeah I've been a fan of Otep since about 2003

[@johnstampii5620]

​I guarantee I looked like a meerkat when they took 2nd stage at Ozzfest 2001. Is incredible to think that they had only played a handful of shows before being invited to be part of the Ozzfest tour. Was a fan immediately. Had to wait months for pre-order of original Jihad EP, and then was able to meet them at Ozzfest '02 at the FYE tent. Any time they came through Indiana over the years I made sure to see their shows (and if was available to, personally interact with) the various iterations of the band. Were always extremely nice to talk with. Although she mentioned recently she has hung up the mic, Ms. Shamaya, in my mind, is an amazing lyricist, with a fairly unique style, and really is one of the pioneers in female extreme vocals. Always gonna be a fan. Hoping I can cross paths again at some point.

[@THIS-IS-BRITAIN]

I too believe in the Kundalini Judson. It explains everything that has been turned into something else by the powers that be, in order to control you.

[@jaakkomaaniemi2136]

Check out some of the new Mirar if you'd like something classical, heavy and interesting. And thall.

[@koryhelm8515]

We need a Bilmuri reaction 😂 Nothing like a little countrycore

[@koryhelm8515]

Hog-crankin-core

[@Shayquaza]

🐗🐗🐗🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🤠🤠🤠

[@TaraRyze]

Trust me, I’ve but that bug in their ear lol

[@newlife3121]

Mechina - Starscape / The Horizon Effect / Cryoshock for exploration.

[@ShaneAllen-k4m]

Glad you finally got back to some more Spiritbox! This song was written quickly, just because they wanted something stupid heavy. I think it's taking a stab at the evangelical 'holy rollers' - there isn't a deep amount of meaning to it. A reaction to their earlier work, 'Trust Fall', would be great! A lot different than their newer stuff.

[@TheTrveMothlord]

We absolutely need some Ulcerate. The Destroyers of All or Dissolved Orders.

[@SRVMETAL]

Exit Music is Radiohead’s best song - change my mind.

[@Greatmeasures]

Personally I like Life in a Glasshouse best but I agree with you

[@LostHate]

I can't wait till April I'm gonna see them live for the first time, way over due. You guys still doing the coffee requests? The Warning- Dust To Dust/Dull Knives live

[@foggypaipa]

Meshuggah - “I”… 🥹

[@coletomlinson5190]

Need to put him on some dooooom. Reverend Bizarre - Cirith Ungol would do the trick

[@troysmithfr]

I'm lowkey surprised Judson wasn't more scared from the music video lol Day 35 of requesting Diablo Swing Orchestra.

[@eduardomeiger]

He has already reacted to Therion?

[@nineteenninetynine99]

Guys u really need to try some Dance Gavin Dance. Sometimes heavy, but sweet and jazzy sound is quite interesting.

[@TheBrandonnnn]

Hello, I was wondering, do you get a copyright claim for this? or how are you able to play their song in your video? Asking because I'm looking to make a video about them, and want to use their music in it.

[@Greatmeasures]

Oh yes. Because we don’t stop the track and listen to it all the way through, we get copyrighted for everything.

[@tiffy3260]

Always love listening to judson and his theories, tho i never think that deep LOL

[@thetruth4654]

I think this song is about someone that would be viewed as evil from a christian perspective. i think the narrator in this song is from the "bad guy." Or entity i think this narrator is killing someone, and this take my body instead rather then the wine(which is obviously a refernce to Jesus) Fade into oblivion like a blade Falling slowly, curse the holy down And when I die, you won't pray for me That's when I learn to cut my ties these sort of lines make this clear to me. I am pagan myself though and ex-christian, that christian belief system didn`t work for me, but more power to those that it works for, as long as they don`t force their beliefs unto others

[@sinisterkate5308]

read through lyrics. sounds like she is being judged and is saying "i'll take the low road". but it was interesting guys. good good chance god is the god of nomads which wandered between present day israel and jordan. some good abrahamic research watch my boy simcha online or on tv. also, i give shout to kayleigh....archeohistory.

[@stellarcubicbeam7760]

Please, play him Old Man's Child - Leads to Utopia. kzbin.info/www/bejne/onPclWuagZiFmpI

[@paulcrick856]

That's a stupid name, stupid shirt and and stupid name for and band. That font type on the shirt is also super annoying. I am going to listen to them to make sure so will report back. Yes, i said stupid name for a band twice because it is, that Probably won't change.

[@Sauerkrautbooger]

This whole jesus god bullshit is just a non medical explanation about how the human body works?

[@mykodemgrzybodem]

First hehehe

[@Sauerkrautbooger]

So, the "bible" is just an explanation about the brain?

[@7ChaosBlack]

This is why I hate metalcore so much.

[@RichardMartin-jw5hb]

Why?

[@7ChaosBlack]

@@RichardMartin-jw5hb Predictable chugga lugga junt junt.

[@archerdoubleO]

@@7ChaosBlack Fair enough if you judge them solely by this track, but if anything this track is kindof an exception. They have a much more varied register, song structure, instrumentation etc to them and I'd give something like Bleach Bath or Trust Fall a chance, because pigeon holing the band on this one track really wouldn't be doing them justice at all.

[@StefanoMauri-l4w]

I love metal but i hate this Band. They are very awful

[@Chubbz969]

This isn't 'metal'. It's borrowing metal aesthetics to make pop music.

[@StefanoMauri-l4w]

@Chubbz969 this is 💩

[@ShaneAllen-k4m]

I always make sure I visit videos about bands I don't like to comment how much they suck. Thanks for your contribution to the discussion.
