La Dispute - King Park Reaction!!

[@dylanmcmahon4902]

What destroys me about this song is that it all really happened. Songs like this really show how powerful music can be.

[@PaulPeavler]

Honestly, you guys should listen to the whole album Wildlife. Every song tells some sort of story like this, and then there’s a song at the end that references most of the others and wraps it into a bigger message. It’s phenomenal.

[@haadibennett-merhi9903]

It’s so damn good!

[@jaygroomes1357]

Oh word? That’s good. I was hoping this wasn’t just a one off thing. I love the cinematic picture he can paint in your mind. I can see the street and the hotel and the cops around the hotel.

Edward Benz 27 times

[@ianbisntdead]

still here hoping for an "Edward Benz, 27 Times" reaction lol

[@DebowNation]

Miss, I believe your reaction at 9:59 was exactly as it should be. It’s an emotional roller coaster, that they take you through the story and you feel empathy for the family and what happened. You feel anger towards the killer, then realize he was only a kid as well, but the excitement to learn he’s about to be caught. Then when you hear his helpless, heart broken, apologetic conversation with his uncle you can’t help but realize that even though his act was bad... he was still a kid too. It’s gut wrenching to hear a kid think he has no way out. All because of petty gang fueds, two children were lost.

[@sm8832]

I love that with every reaction I watch to king park, everyone is bobbing their heads at the beginning thinking its a jam and slowly as Jordan sings, they catch what he's singing about and then they stop and start paying close attention, every single person, its amazing.

[@altusshow7574]

It's the only song reaction I've watched multiple people react to. It's fascinating Everytime.

[@BrokenGodEnt]

this song always gets my heart pounding.

[@sal8937]

i think that's the reaction we all had when we heard that lyric for the first time. nearly a decade later, that line still hits so hard.

[@fahr]

I really appreciate how you guys listened to the song fully without pausing or anything before discussing it. I'm not a christian but I do also appreciate hearing your views from a christian perspective, don't let people get you down for your beliefs.

[@danieldukes1954]

Its crazy to me that people are just now reacting to this. Im glad they are though.

New sub because of this song

[@burningandunconsumed]

jesus, that song already always made me cry, but seeing y'all see/hear it for the first time drives it home even more.

[@burningandunconsumed]

with that being said, y'all know y'all's business and time management and audience, but if you havent't hit up "edward benz 27 times" by these guys, might be worth it. i've never been super into la dispute musically, but they tell the truth HARD.

[@lewisb85]

It happened down the street from where two of the guys in La Dispute worked, their singer Jordan said that it makes the harshness of life hit home when stuff like that happens near you.

[@tadsite]

cant believe you guys are one of the few to react to this, but I'm glad that it was you two. Thank you for your reaction.

[@the1warboar]

Or "The Last Lost Continent" that one is absolutely fantastic. It isn't as dark a subject matter, though it is still a very emotional song, it really highlights the whole bands dynamic and style. The unofficially " official" lyric video is also very well put together

[@KurisuOkami]

This is one of my absolute favorites from this band. Never thought you would do this one.

[@howdydoughty7634]

I love how Raw La Dispute’s recordings are. I was able to see them open years ago and the next time they came through they opened for another band. A couple years later they were headlining and I got to see them again. Amazing live lots of energy.

[@ryancleland7179]

La Dispute's first album is one about a lost marriage. Affairs, rancor, a family destroyed. I'd love to listen to your christian take on the morality of the issue. It's called Somewhere at the bottom of the river between Vega and Altair

That was a rough song. It made me cry too. I don't care what religion you have, murder that isn't self defense because you had no choice, is wrong. I can't handle death in any way whatsoever. I can't remember the last time I watched the news to the point where I'm not caught up with current events in any way. I hate hate. I hate violence. I hate evil.

You guys should react to woman(reading) by them. Or just that whole album, it’s such a good story from beginning to end.

Looking at the views maybe not lol

[@dillonyancey2233]

You guys have worded it so perfectly in every way, this is such a heavy topic, and I'm not religious but still agree with everything you both said, I'm gonna keep watching haha

[@jadeberaha876]

I completely respect the part when you said him killing himself doesn’t even out the fact that he murder an innocent child but he was a child himself, at the end of the day to him, he was thinking life for a life and that’s still heartbreaking.

[@walkingsleeper9713]

The message is. You cant get that kids life back. But you still can make a new start and dedicate it to repentance for your action and now doing good deeds. The family/people might not forgive him but God can, if he changes his ways. Hence what the uncle was telling him. If we go by Bible murder is a sin and all life weights same. Doesnt matter if saint kills sinner or another saint. And if there was a ranking for worst sin, that might be suicide, as you spit in the face of God that gave you life.

What strikes me about this song is his perspective is more curious than greif until the shooter feels remorse and the shame and regret becomes too much for the singer to witness what comes after such unforgivable shame.

The way he describes wanting to see these horrible images is how I feel about, say, the first world war. Reading All Quiet On The Western Front, I want to see the horrors of the trenches and feel the shells. But really, obviously, not. But something in me wants to be as close as possible, while still being distant.

[@Nicholasayotoole]

The only legitimate reaction to this song on KZbin right here.

[@techn9cian09]

How senseless death, how precious life.

[@burningandunconsumed]

i think after particularly emotional gut-punching parts, they seem to get into somewhat drawn-out and slow instrumental sections, both to give the singer the chance to emotionally recover from what he just transmitted, and to force the audience to sit and digest what they just experienced, before moving on within the narrative.

"Wildlife" (the album this song is off of) is very, very heavy lyrically. Their album "Rooms Of The House" is much more accessible lyrically and instrumentally. Or if you want instrumentals like this without the intense storytelling, their debut "Somewhere Between The Bottom Of The River..." is well worth the listen.

Just a request: BloodSimple - "Ride With Me"

[@benwebb4424]

"That's where I see the utility in the gospel." Says Vin, despite the question asked being one of being permitted into Heaven. Christianity did not, and could not save this guy with a suicidal mindset. Christianity is useless in the real world. Perhaps even dangerous when you spread it as if it has utility despite, in these situations, creating a moral framework that caused self doubt. Said person needed therapy, not God. Meanwhile Vin is saying that human lives aren't equivalent, which further pushes the point that the murderer could not cope because people like Vin don't give people the room to cope. I'm not saying the family of the murdered should forgive him, btw, I'm saying the murder happened and the societal pressure drove someone else to die needlessly. Guilt doesn't mean you should be dead, and treating his life as lesser (as Vin does in this video) is precisely how we end up with more dead people. It is a sad failing of society that we jump from guilty to wanting the worst. It's a huge societal issue and Vin perpetuates it and then goes "But muh religion" as if that justifies it. It doesn't.

[@dream_in_digital]

I'm not Christian but I don't believe religion is useless. Even those I disagree with, even the aspects of religion that can be/are damaging, saying it's completely useless is throwing the baby out with the bathwater. At the very least it brings people together and give them a sense of community. They provide a support group. There are other benefits but even nonbelievers have to admit that.

[@ishthefish9006]

If you believe religion is pointless you are wrong. Religion is faith and faith is to believe in something greater that cant be verified I love religion although I'm not religious and dont believe in God I am a rational person. We are sentimental creatures we find ways to cope with things in this world. Religion has done alot of good to people while mourning the dead and dealing with the overall troubles of life. After all science cant answer many things about our universe yet alone our existence. There is nothing wrong with believing in something higher and meaningful. Faith is a way to express ones inner self no harm in that.

[@dream_in_digital]

@@ishthefish9006 Very well said!

[@tylermanning2848]

EXACTLY I was blown away when he said that its not an even exchange... "because he's a murderer". Way to miss the whole point of the song, dude. But I stumbled on this channel randomly, had no idea that these people are fundamentalists.

[@willowandluka5302]

As a Christian, I didn’t agree with him either. In Christianity, we’re all sinners. And you don’t rank sins by their severity. In God’s eyes, we’re all the same. We are all equally sinners, and we are all equally forgiven, because he sent his son to pay that debt for all of us. Which is why I also believe that even those who don’t believe in God go to heaven. Because it’s not about us, or anything we can do, even choosing to believe. John 14:6 “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.”And that lyric, “Can I still get into heaven if I kill myself?” is even more powerful when I think of what I just stated. Because the answer is “YES”, but he died without the peace of knowing that. Because that kid wanted forgiveness. I can’t even imagine the weight of what he was feeling in that hotel room… to bear that guilt, and to question if you’re going to hell. That’s gotta be about the heaviest thing anyone could ever have on their conscience. I wish that he could have felt God lifting that weight from him, if he had been able to put the gun down, and find peace. Instead, he took it all on himself. It breaks my heart. It’s also sad because, yes, many Christians look down on non-Christians; as do other religions. Which misses the entire point.
