[@DeathMetalFatCat]

This song absolutely slaps. In my opinion their second album Reckless and Relentless was their best album. A few songs to check out from that is To The Stage, A Lesson Never Learned, and Morte Et Dabo (their heaviest song)

[@Owlicks123]

100% Best album overall.

[@Whenisko]

And Hey There Mr Brooks of course

[@leodanysperez1261]

From Death to Destiny is their best album for me reckless and Relentless comes in an 3

[@Meracog]

Yeah R&R is definitely their best imo as well. They all slap.

[@Meracog]

Reckless and Relentless Stand up and Scream From Death to Destiny Are my favorites

[@spaceashes]

"a candlelit dinner with inamorta" is a track you should check out

[@marinkoswag9254]

this isnt over baby dont believe a word they say!

[@caitlinbaker36]

A BOP

[@sucellos99]

Definitly

[@baseballismylife795]

Morte et dabo

[@diceymaan]

Great songs from AA to react to: - The Final Episode - A Candlelit Dinner With Inamorta - Hey There Mr. Brooks - A Single Moment of Sincerity - A Prophecy - I Was Once Possibly, Maybe, Perhaps A Cowboy Kind - Closure - A Lesson Never Learned - To The Stage - Someone, Somewhere - Breathless - The Match - Morte et Dabo - Killing You - The Death of Me - Run Free - Creature - Moving On - The Road - Until the End (feat. Howard Jones)

[@caitlinbaker36]

My dude those are all the bops omg yes

[@TrantaLocked]

lil bro just named the entirety of Bethovens entire discog 💀

[@christiankopec2342]

Morte has to be at the top of this list

[@smyers3423]

This whole album is so unique and fantastic but their second album is my absolute favorite. Morte Et Dabo is straight up BRUTAL but A Lesson Never Learned and To The Stage are my absolute standouts. Closure and Dear Insanity are also just bangers. Actually, forget all this. The whole album is just perfection for me. Recommend the whole thing.

[@lukeoneill2426]

It's the furthest thing from unique. I'm not shitting on AA but their early stuff in particular was just jumping on the "Risecore" bandwagon

[@TimmyTurner421]

Someone somewhere is a dope song too

[@caitlinbaker36]

I had no business listening to this and screaming it when I was 10 😂😂😂 didn't understand what it was about until I was 14 lol

[@metalc0readd1ct]

Do final episode next such icon for AA and 2010s

[@DJC171]

Personally "Breathless" is my favourite AA song. Pretty heavy but with some nice cleans in it.

[@the.edgyhippie]

also at 4:15, i can tell you as a guitarist, this is extremely similar to Unholy Confessions. i’ll start playing this AA song and then realize i’m totally playing the wrong song and drifted in A7X unintentionally 😂

[@unknowngaming1432]

It's the "metalcore riff". Like 80% of big metalcore songs from that time had it in some way. I think it come from Paint It Black. It's also called the 3-5-7 riff

[@ayanance5327]

You almost cried there for a second...this was everything you needed. Lol 😂

[@khrewk]

YESSSS ! 6:21 - 7:04 I totally agree with you, the first time i've heard this song, I totally felt in love with this moment, and I was searching for someone to react about this moment because I feel that a lot of people don't like this moment that much ;-;

[@the.edgyhippie]

while Danny was gone, he wrote a blues album and a country and they both SLAP. please man if there’s any time to take a comment suggestion, plsssss check out best bad habit (which is from his blues album) and High + Don’t Overdrink It (from his country album). you are going to BLOWN AWAY with Danny’s vocal abilities

[@onegyro5523]

A prophecy next please 🙏

[@theundergroundviking]

It's incredible the amount of bands who got their inspiration from this album. Some HUGE bands. They get alot of hate but they were one of the biggest inspirations for metalcore. Even bands who claim to hate Danny and AA. you can go back and catalogue just how many artists drew their style from them.

[@harrisnasir5753]

Yes, I love to see when people are genuinely reacting how awesome their songs are. Great reaction! I would suggest, "breathless", "closure", "run free", and "someone somewhere". All tof these are by them. Not gonna spoil anything for ya so I guess you just have to find out yourself xD

[@slimpulse6561]

@4:10 I agree. It sounds just like the opening riff for Unholy Confessions.

[@giraffewhiskers2045]

The guitar solo reminds me of knives in pens by black veil brides from 4:17-4:20

[@idkanymore9869]

This song came out in 2009 by the way. You were right about the late 2000’s sound

[@300metalhead]

4:15 I was thinking the same thing 😂 sounds like Unholy Confessions, it might actually be the same riff lol

[@noteminemsburneraccount324]

Whats even crazier alot of bands have used this rift

[@300metalhead]

@@noteminemsburneraccount324 classic metal core

React to Second & Sebring by Of Mice & Men

[@jerrydotzler6270]

Cesspool of Ignorance by Signs of the Swarm Gold Blooded by Invisions Great reaction again!!!

[@ozz3131]

top 5 favortie songs due to the dynamics of all time rap, hip. Hop, pop, jazz, country all could learn from it it even has classical instrumental vibes

[@TimmyTurner421]

Probably their best song

[@JuanFritzTheCat.]

Big hoopsick, thanks for reacting to these iconic core bands

[@mikeharris7229]

Dayuuummm... i forgot how good that track is! Great reaction dude. New to the channel... def enjoy ur content. Keep it up!

[@ninjanurd509]

love watching peeps reaction to this. Only way i can get those first time goosebumps again. lol

[@devineheresy2287]

This used to be my first song I played when I woke up for years I love og AA I personally can't stand their new stuff that's just me though other songs to do are any from the first 2 albums but morte de dabo is their heaviest song and one of my favs

[@Josue-qb7cq]

I know it's been a couple months but hey, here I go. Check out AA's cover of "Closer" (2014) and their song "Eve" (2018).

[@BigDaddyBeefPatty]

Dude check out "You call that a knife? This is a knife." By Capture the Crown. They basically took AA's style and made a song and music video to one up them (hence the title) and its fire lol.

[@Groffy17]

You might enjoy “SR-71 Right now” if you haven’t heard it. Some old punk rock

[@ittscammm]

One of my personal favorites from middle school lol, the song is actually off of their 2009 record Stand Up and Scream but the music video was filmed in 2011 hence why the video says 2011 :) you should definitely check out my personal favorites Nobody Don't Dance No More off the their first album and The Match off their second album (their best album) Reckless and Relentless :)

[@BravoWhiskey0909]

Run Free is a beast of a song, check it out

[@USMCVeteranGamer-zo1rf]

That riff is unholy confessions all day. I watched a video someone did about that riff and how popular it is. Someone else wrote it a while ago and A lot of bands have used it

[@ariannaperez5348]

Through sin and self destruction the short film they did! It's amazing!

[@xParadiddler]

A concert I was in like 2017 in Virginia whitechapel did a live video for a new song at the time.

[@peacegirl995]

THIS was my first metalsong and from this time my life starts better 🥰 You must react to Someone somewere or Vultures 😊

[@anastasiaespinoza8032]

Definitely check out Morte Et Dabo and A Single Moment Of Sincerity.. Two of my favorites by them!

[@lethallaceration6681]

Do A Single Moment of Sincerity!!

[@willywonkabrah314]

danny worsnop is the lead singer and has some solo stuff too. You should react to his song "little did i know"

[@haleycarroll169]

I know that this song is so degrading to women, but it is definitely one of my favorites... this one and A Prophecy

[@ashreport6293]

Hoopsick, это если что не с целью оскорбить или задеть. Но реакция вложенная 4 года назад на клипп группы который был записан больше 10 лет назад точно. На группу, о которой будто без преувелечения слушал кто дегче направление или куда тяжелее приковывали интерес. Где в те годы скажите не знали о таких группах Miss my i, We cam as romans или Memphis may fire. Хоть со вторыми спустя годы назавал плотно знакомиться с тем что уже имелось, но даже тогда не раз о них слышал послушав где пару треков не зацепив меня тогда. Прост что за мода, не первая реакция которой этой максимам к года, другие что встречал еще ранее сделаны. Будто из области фантастики или же будто из пещер повылезали с максимальным удивлением. Серьезно?

[@sethmoore2505]

You should check out Danny worsnops solo stuff on his blue album. Good stuff

[@JawaFighter1896]

[@chogunrua]

im the dude who stands at the back and to the side at shows and just watches, but when i saw this song live in 2011 i literally fully sprinted into the pit only to get laid out and pulled up by some giant guy lol

[@jameskeene3126]

If only he was reading the lyrics while watching this. I think his reaction would’ve changed a lot lol

[@ryantaylor3023]

That Avenged Sevenfold ish riff is actually from an old Avenged Sevenfold album

[@youjakinfo3910]

4:15 Unholy Confessions 2 wkwk

[@Chotric]

The rift sounded exactly like Black veil Brides - Knives and Pens rift

[@InTheToaster]

Nope listen to Avenged Sevenfold Unholy Confession this riff is copied from there but in AA version much slower the original from Avenged sevenfold is faster and better

[@mitchellmiranda5]

Do To The Stage it’s amazing pleaseeeeeeeee

You mean you need to see the regression. This song was original asking alexandria, before danny went soft

[@manuelruen]

1:48 Bruh hold the phone; why the fuck are you gonna cut the damn song off right when they start to play? CMON BRUH!!!. You ruined the moment; I was about to get into it!

[@AngryBob4213]

Man, this song is so good! The lyrics though.. Yikes lol. I know that's just how the scene was back then, but still. At least they've gone back and owned up to it and said they're not gonna play it anymore (though I feel like part of that is that they just don't want to play old stuff lol)

[@scottprisk4886]

I was at this show.... glad they used the album track for the video because they were ALL fucked up and horrible.

[@logancessor9009]

If you like breakdowns. Parkway drive - romance is dead

[@Potato-lc7sk]

Fack dead

[@jamesyoung223]

Boooo thos is not them 2008 is them just like korn went mainstream

[@diceymaan]

The pitch corrections on the two first albums are so obvious, it's sometimes difficult to listen to (that gnarliness in the cleans and semi-cleans) . On the third album "From Death to Destiny" they heavily dialed down the pitch correction when Danny learned to sing a bit more. You can here that his real voice is significantly lower register than on this somg for example. So, from the third album I suggest you do "Killing You", it's fantastic.

[@davewetering7554]

This song is fake off! Autotune as fuck! Seem them live

[@h23erst923]

People will disagree with me but I hate this song, even the band hates it and doesn't play it anymore. Try Closure or The Stage.

[@Hoopsick]

For my perspective of not really knowing anything about their progression as a band, I can see why they don't play this anymore. It seems from what I've heard recently they are definitely more into the alternative and pop game now.

[@h23erst923]

@@Hoopsick Part of their maturing as well. They don't like the overly vulgar stuff anymore. Believe it not this band is very young for how long they've been playing. Danny (the vocalist) is only 29, and they've been together (same lineup too) since 2008. He's even covered his vulgar tattoos. They just changed and grown up. It happens. Good reaction!
