My Skillet ADDICTION Continues... | SKILLET - "Comatose" (REACTION!!)

[@barrynapier7584]

"Rebirthing" is a must. For the longest time, they used it as a closer for their concerts because it's THAT epic

So many awesome Skillet songs for you to hear man! Highly reccomend: - Save Me - The Resistance (Just make sure to hear the guitar solo at the end) - Rise - Legendary - Undefeated - Back from the Dead - Savior - The Last Night - Out of Hell - I Want to Live - Live Free of Let me Die - Fire and Fury (this once isn't a full on as the others, but John and Jen have awesome harmonies in this!) Also Jen Ledger along with Ashes to New do a cover of Gravity by Papa Roach, so not technically Skillet, but really good! Jen's voice is amazing!

This song is speaking specifically about his relationship with God and how without Him life is empty.

This needs to be emphasized, a lot of people don’t understand this band is heavily rooted in Christ.

Yea, i thought it was about relationship with a girl/guy for a long time, until someone told me how it is for real. And a lot of other songs, like Feel Invincible for example, right, they all about God.

I've seen them at a certain concert festival a number of times over the last ten years. Of all the bands you might see over the 4 days of the festival, they were one of the most popular. They always headlined one of the nights if they were there that year. And they were BY FAR the loudest, both the band and the ROARING crowd could be heard clearly from a kilometer or two away. According to my mom, the CROWD is actually louder, but then again, 15,000 people can make a hell of a lot of noise, and that many people screaming, "I FEEL LIKE A MONSTER!!!" in unison is simply incredible.

Dude, so stoked you’re still on the Skillet train!!! As a lifelong Panhead it’s always nice to see someone falling in love with their music and specifically the Comatose album. When I tell you this album changed my life, I mean it. I literally have Whispers’ chorus tatted on my arm. I really think you need to check out Breaking Free, Anchor, Falling in the Black, Lucy, Collide, and a little gem called The Last Night. Basically anything they’ve put out is amazing for different reasons. You may also want to check out John and Seths side project Fight the Fury if you want to hear some heavier stuff and the song Dominate Me from their EP.
