*I’m so happy Bullet is back with the rawrs* And yes, I filmed the reaction then did the cover. I always release reacts later at 5pm since thats when I go live on Twitch :)

[@bend9623]

Nic Norris can play songs even before hearing them. And roundhouse.

[@oliverauer-jackson3602]

nice to see you so hyped haha. I feel you bro. Bullet is my fav band ever... Temper Temper and Gravity were such a big disappointment overall and I just relistened Poison, SAF and Fever again just yesterday xD It's just so satisfying hearing Bullet again doing REAL Bullet stuff. Missed it so bad!!! Thx for this reaction. Cant wait for te album

When it comes to BFMV I feel there's a correlation between their music and Matt's hair... the longer his hair, the heavier it is!

[@SWAATSFan]

Venom was heavy AF

[@Tennessee_Plumbing]

Starting to seem that way.

Agreed!

[@ZIMBO37333]

The drummer is just a beast. He gets a solo part at almost every live show.

[@Unknownusername1004]

I was literally waiting for the solo at the end to close it. It was the only part that was a letdown just because bfmv have always had sick ass solos

[@sheldonjack4221]

Apparently there's quite a few tracks with solos in the new album, they said so in one of the album trailers :)

@@Unknownusername1004 it's BFMV so don't get your hopes down, they'll have solos and they'll be sick

I think a guitar solo would've felt out of place in this song, would've thrown the dark heavy creepy vibe off

[@JoostCraanen]

Honestly I think a solo would've felt forced in this song

[@adibraiyanhaque4823]

LET THE MADNESS BEGIN!!!! Tells a lot about the direction the band is taking. Love it!!

I was not expecting to be rocking out to new BFMV in 2021.

[@shiningdaraen]

Normal people: listen to new song then cover it. This madlad: first cover then react

[@Cyberdragunz]

This doesn't sound like the BFMV I listened to in high school. I like this upgrade.

[@TobikunOuO]

Well the original bassist and drummer left sooo

[@Ilych367]

Tobi kun and the singer cooked his voice and had to get surgery so that probably makes it sound different

[@xxsqueaky_cleanxx1739]

Now that it’s “Post Matt Throat Surgery” i know damn well this album is gonna make us forget Gravity ever existed 😮‍💨😮‍💨😮‍💨😮‍💨

[@shikarifox4337]

@@666Metalholic I feel like with Temper Temper, they should've just released an EP rather than an album.

[@running.yetiii]

But how many parts of this song will be "sung" by the bassist when performed live? He deserves more credits in them videos.

[@matthewdamant9618]

Had it's live debut at the Download Festival Pilot event on Sunday night and I can confirm that Matt was delivering in bucketloads!

[@novahdesign]

i have the privilege of working with matts dad and hes been hyping me up for this track all week. definitely delivers.

This brings me back to the scream aim fire album and I can’t wait for this one

how much chunk will this breakdown have? Bullet For My Valentine: yes

[@chrisbaltazar7164]

The drums sounded huge on this tracks and loved every bit of it👌🏾

[@OhrionReacts]

Oh yeah baby! I don't know this band much. But I need to know more... Great reaction dude!

[@shikarifox4337]

Simple recommendations (Not including singles), Alone, Eye of the Storm, Room 409, Ashes of the Innocent and The Harder the Heart (The Harder it Breaks). Singles; 4 Words, Waking the Demon, You Want a Battle? (Here's a War) and Scream Aim Fire.

Coming back to this, you really appreciate the drummer

[@bagirbahana9313]

This sounds like WSS song (in a good way ofc), even Matt looks like Loz lol

[@Szczauqa]

It sounds better than modern WSS, they became cookie-cutter

[@pflsorrow7367]

[@tomcanningmusic4923]

@@Szczauqa sounds way more predictable than modern wss! Still good though

[@sunvirtuosity8164]

@@Szczauqa Sleeps Society arguably has the most powerful message. You Are We and Brainwashed are still good but WSS can make an album that is experimental but still good. The second a band does something different people throw a fit lol. WSS is godly even when it does something different

[@HitsWithStyxx]

I was at the Download Pilot so missed the Friday drop of this, first time I heard it was when they played it live on the Sunday and ripped everyone's fucking head off with it. Can't believe I'm excited for a new BFMV album in 2021.

[@Gsr_automotive]

This song is awesome honestly. Alot of people have it on repeat, me included. But I also love how the song itself like the main riff just sounds like a breakdown. And I love the part where the instruments stop as he's saying "bring out the knives" and then the beat drops.

[@Cranetechofficial]

It's like somewhere in deep down in heart , someone we haven't seen for long is back after years 🔥

[@megaskod9343]

people have been saying for a long time they are not heavy enough. So they put heavy in it, with a big fat foot on heavy. Love this song!

[@pandiriadnya4253]

this new BFMV song gave me OG Metal 2000ish era kinda vibe and its fucking awesome!!

[@rstrife7x]

the link to the original video in the description is to the LORNA SHORE song

[@barrycarter7274]

I saw them play this on Sunday and it was fucking epic. So weird to say that after 18 months of no gigs/festivals in the UK

This is fucking gooooood!!!!!! Hasn't been like this since the scream aim fire album

They definitely got a more "generic" metal-core sound when they got their new drummer (definitely not a bad thing)

[@AndyWoohoo666]

03:24 I love the owl!

[@volatilelyle5170]

I always loved rock but Bullet is what got me into metal. Every time they release a song then I'm not sure how to feel about it but then I listen to it again and it gets my head banging and then I start listening to it on repeat. This was the same when they released Crawling. Crawling is still my favourite

[@Brently124]

Pleasant surprise right here!!! I try to forget Gravity exists... but this is the best song by them since Scream Aim Fire album imo.

[@jamminjev7788]

I love Nik's reaction videos because I make the same expressions and lose my speech when I hear a new song, too lol

[@stephenvanbellinghen933]

loved the heaviness in this. It grows on you cuz it takes half the song to kick in
