[@AlexTerrible]

BROTHER! Our guitarist Jack has EXACTLY THE SAME PEDAL HAHAHHAHA

[@petewotb]

Hello

[@Leofric000]

I missed this years tour do you know when you guys will be performing again? Love the stuff it’s brilliant

[@Senzuballs]

That bear growl you did sounds fuckin evil brother!

[@kanoaikawach]

Alex!!! :D Ya the whammy makes the "wheee!" noises!

[@breakdownstv9284]

❤❤❤

[@MrScrax]

Imagine an Alex and Will collab. Shit would melt faces, displace tectonic plates, and humble many an eardrum.

[@KrisMIW91]

Will on highs. Alex lows. Nutttttty

[@sevandobo]

Will, Alex and....Tom...

[@joshholliday5282]

Cj - Will - Alex

[@blank4331]

Add Phil as well in that

[@joeyrandell6722]

Add Dickie Allen from infant annihilator would be godly

[@masked_serpent_jaws]

any time I listen to slaughter to prevail it’s just “I haven’t a clue what they’re saying but I agree to this. Yes.”

[@RewindDrums]

Especially during the russian parts😂

[@masked_serpent_jaws]

EXACTLY lmao

[@thatgoodstuff2197]

I didn't read slaughters terms of service, just clicked the little box and hit agree.

[@masked_serpent_jaws]

😭

[@chikenman320]

Their songs are actually pretty meaningful. Viking was about how brother nations killing each other and how its wrong (and you know what is this related too).

[@PavelGaborik]

Man, just when you thought they couldn't top Demolisher.....the breakdown at the end melted my face

[@cile5459]

same bro

[@Tojinaru]

please visit doctor, melted face isn´t healthy

[@darkfire7031]

It's exactly the same

[@cile5459]

@@darkfire7031 nah

[@PavelGaborik]

@@darkfire7031 Maybe if you're tone deaf. There are similarities in the pauses in the breakdown, but this one is even slower and heavier. This is definitely heavier than Demolisher.

[@TitanatorA1]

His vocals go so crazy in this song

[@user-tn8fv3yz1u]

По этому я их обожаю

[@ethanp1erce]

Alex’s vocal range is expanding into horrifying territory. I love it.

[@BriGuyIT]

"He has become bear"...the destroyer of worlds. So that growl is what Oppenheimer heard when the nuke went off.

[@xyupizdagovno]

There is actually an other Russian death band used Oppenheimer’s quote in their album from last year [eq - Issi Saaneq

Wasn't a nuke but sure

saw them live, they played this song and he screamed without the mic before the breakdown and you could still hear it across the arena. INSANE

[@lazcoroner1483]

Heard this live unreleased.. ABSOLUTE BANGER!

[@mitchellyoung7513]

When the gutterals came in everyone lost their shit in Tampa lol

[@BRUNHILDofficial]

​@mitchellyoung7513 dude I was there! It was fucking chaos!!!!

[@TheRealDizzle]

Band: How heavy you want the breakdown to be? Alex: Yes

[@BeardedDanishViking]

Slaughter To Prevail really manage to escape most forms of classification. It's just great, brutal metal.

[@KM-iv9xy]

It's really like the evolution of what Slipknot created on their self-titled and Iowa. Slipknot themselves veered away from it right afterwards, but the sound crops up here and there, and some bands hold onto it stronger than others. Slaughter to Prevail in the last few years just took it and grew it and modernized it. That's the best way I could describe their sound. Like a modernized version of what Slipknot was doing 20+ years ago.

[@ItzSkettimas]

Nu deathcore seems fitting

[@ThatShitGood]

@@ItzSkettimasNu Deathcore been a thing for a while, Left to Suffer and IAMTHESHOTGUN are another examples

[@ItzSkettimas]

@@ThatShitGood indeed it is not ...nu... But I didn't say it was. Just mentioned that this is the sub genre I'd list them under it I had to

[@ivytroy8354]

Ok, but can we talk about the almost Velociraptor growl towards the beginning around 1 minute. He sounds like a demon trying to purr, and I love it! So unique! Idk if i should run away or towrds that sound. ❤😂

[@beautifuldreamer0811]

2:07? Cuz that shit was siiiiiick. Definitely a purr! And definitely run towards 😂

[@yomahmaful]

Sounds like a Croc! He does live in Florida. 🤘🏼❤️‍🔥🤘🏼

[@ivytroy8354]

@beautifuldreamer0811 yeah in this video its 2:07 but in the actual song it's like 1:01 I think. But 💯 agree 🤣

[@Sparks2490]

Nah, this one sounds like Predator, the Velociraptor is Cj McCrerry.

[@xyrk12]

Unique nah CJ second vocalist of Lorna Shore did it in his own band diffenetly heavier than Alex did i think alex was inspired by the song from cj where he did it

[@kevinthedemolisher]

Alex never ceases to amaze me with his vocals. His tunnel throat sounds absolutely crushing. Best vocalist in the game.

[@symptomofsouls]

Dude doesn't even need a mic

[@Zrakow]

Sorry, but Alex is not the best in the genre

[@symptomofsouls]

@@Zrakow Who is then? I think there is an argument that S2P isn't the best deathcore band (even though they are my favorite) but from a pure vocal talent standpoint no one beats Alex

[@Zrakow]

@@symptomofsouls I would say Ben Duerr from Shadow of Intent is the best in both vocal range and song writing. Technique wise one of the best. But then again, its impossible to say that one singular vocalist is the best as there is so many arguments to be made. Dont get me wrong, I like Alex and he is good. But in my opinion Both Cj McReery and Dickie Allen is better than Alex.

[@iamnothuman77dartdontlie66]

⁠@@Zrakowi saw shadow of intent live when they opened for lorna. shit was wild

[@dalyandmattforever9652]

5:54 Never knew your eardrums could get dislocated until I heard this breakdown

[@MrGrislyTooth]

I don't think there will ever be another vocalist like Alex. He is a international treasure.

[@ROtella16023]

Let's give credit to the whole band!

[@mattdeinken6580]

I have a feeling alex terrible is a very chill dude but when I see his videos I think "please don't kill me"

[@lemonkrieg9322]

yeah he seems like the most chill person youd want to hang out with but is also terrifying

[@kirillchernenko6683]

He is super chill dude, I approve that 👍

[@SmuggyOcelot]

he has a video where he was just talking about his DOOM-inspired song, and he talks calmy, and it goes from 0 to 100 when he starts doing the vocals for the song

[@ryanbollinger1759]

Easily their best song since Demolisher. I think I must have mistook Alex for a bear near the end of this track.

[@SwordOdOdin]

my favourite part is actually 2:06 and the following like 4 seconds. Never heard someone growl like that before, ever. It sounds as if he's gurgling up blood, fits the song so incredibly well!

[@asapvarg]

Good catch!

[@xyrk12]

Listen to CJ mccrerry song there is no light and the other song dragged through the inferno he inspired Alex with this sound and dicky

[@dragonblazer96]

I honestly think this is their best track. Production is insane and the songwriting is off the chart

[@Luftmysza.]

Two very uncommon things for ridiculously heavy metal lol

[@je7303]

I agree, best song i heard so far. Makes me think future songs are gonna be crazy. I get the same feeling i had when i heard Code Orange.

[@dantpc9830]

Words at the beginning: "you understand only the language of the sword, well, so blood will be shed. so there will be blood. My tongue will become boneless to speak. to speak"

[@rolltide9719]

Dude Alex's voice is evolving and becoming even more demonibear.

[@Flush3D]

"Alex would be a terrifying Viking " - High 5's kids very gentle in the next frame.

[@Konfide4043]

Bro I can only imagine how hard Alex laughed when you said 'He has become bear' shit cracked me up too 😭

[@SpyralHax]

Personally I love the contrast of the absolutely brutal vocals against clips of Alex just being an all around chill dude.

[@TylerPilizota]

This man's voice is insane. Vocal chords are denser than the core of a dying star

[@tehfuqizg0inon588]

Ur moms star

[@johnc.hammersticks]

Alot of it is a strong diaphragm and vocal control, watch his throat when he screams it widens like 4 inches. Alex is one of a kind.

[@spencersuxx]

UNSATISFIED PRIMAL FEAR I’m glad you posted a reaction for this one!!! So good

[@iCondemnPS3]

Saw the live on the US tour last Friday in Atlanta. This wins heaviest song of the year easily for me especially with seeing the crowds react to this live. Alex and the band are absolutely killing it right now

[@theaustralianv1nce62]

i was there also

where were you i was behind the pit on top of something with a rail there was a kid that was rockin out

[@philippruizlozano]

Ok, hear me out, Will Ramos doing high screaming and Alex doing the low growls in a metaphysical collab. That would collapse this universe tho.

[@cru2006]

2:07 niks face right here is literally perfect

[@joshirwin2]

"Unsatisfied primal fear" gives me chills. So damn good

[@zacharyratley4676]

This song gives me a old school Slipknot Vibe. Mainly with the guitar work and such. Slaughter to Prevail quickly became one of my favorites over time. And it’s cool seeing them bringing in the sounds we know and love while also bring their own original just madness and awesomeness to it!

[@brallin94]

They did play it live the first of the two times I saw them this year. Pretty sure the PIT sign in the video was from the show I was at lol. Such a brutal song! I love it! 🖤🤘

[@RyanLoper9]

I saw the pit sign in Harrisburg and Hershey😂 Wish we’d got the Alex/Ronnie collab on Watch the World Burn in Hershey! Missed it by a day or so!

[@alcottrell2527]

I was gonna ask about this because we had a pit sign in Knoxville too, but I don’t think they used footage from that show.

[@TJ-qo2xu]

Can we talk about how he also became a freaking ALLIGATOR 1 minute into the song?!

[@vasiliymarusin4379]

After this song, at least half of the email requests for growl lessons Alex recieve everyday are actually composed by bears.

but why isnt anyone talking about the scream at 2:06 like HUH WHAT pterodactyl??????

[@brett5569]

Man this song would be absolutely insane to see live

[@helsskald2417]

It was amazing dude. Especially Alex doing the portion near the end without a microphone. When the crowd doesn't know what to scream, it's an amazing experience

[@noahtudor7014]

It was insane to see live

[@deepstatethrombosis]

2:09 when the vocals make Nik look like he is puking, about to puke, or may puke soon, I'm down. I'm down.

[@sippyboivergil9198]

It's so crazy to hear something so stupidly heavy still be super groovy. Probably one of top 5 bands, no doubt.

[@ehrenmulleanglewoodpecker]

It is even more brutal than Demolisher and I did not think that this was even possible. It is so raw and primal and I LOOOVE IT!!!

[@mikecampbell1669]

I had to look hard in slow mo but my buddy and I are in this music video! We saw them in Knoxville and I spotted us once near the pit early on, once in the pit, and once during the two sides running at each other haha, it was blast man!! Highly recommend seeing them live

[@CalebsAquarium]

I was at the Knoxville show as well and it was a great show! Awesome band, awesome songs, awesome crowd.

[@walktroughman1952]

Alex might just be the one vocalist that can do a legitimate brown note with his voice

[@nyctoshade6302]

Demolisher, mixed with Agony, with a splash of Bratva. Pure metal excellence my man, they fucking killed it.

[@tannerb43]

That predator alien fucked up growl is definitely my favorite A.Terrible vocal sound of all songs period!! I can say out of all the amazing screamers/growlers out there, I don't think anyone has touched that insane sound.i listen to thousands of metal songs/ bands but no one can compare to Alex!! He took a style and reinvented it! (BTW it's so sick he brought u on stage not too long ago) 😎

[@callmeklem]

STP is a band that make me wanna question life,break shit and laugh all in the same song.. it's great!

[@theangelbelow88]

This is definitely one of the most brutal deathcore songs released this year and gawd, I love it 💀

[@chrisumana7644]

The sound engineering in this song is insanely good

[@JBurky15]

I wanna see Alex as a guest character in like Street Fighter or Mortal Kombat. That would be bad ass. Also, this song kicks @$$!

[@symptomofsouls]

Alex needs to be a boss in DOOM

[@5PANKER]

Watching them play this live when it wasn't even released yet was amazing. The crowd went absolutely bonkers and that breakdown in person just left me with the nastiest stank face ever.

[@ZeusTheGodSoA]

[@thealphatheomega2348]

I have seen so many videos of this song live and it f*ckin SLAYS dude! They way they build it up with the chanting, before Alex starts the first vocals and then everything comes in and hits you like a freight train. 🤪💫 Probably the best song STP has written yet.

[@darkrulerkeshi267]

Can we also just talk about how this man also turned into a gator at 2:07 😂

[@victoriamartines5030]

Ya know, Max0r said something in his DOOM Eternal review that fits perfectly with StP effect: 'It have so much male hormones it could transition someone'. This song can be easily the un-official anthem for all the Viking descendants. It have everything that can make any metalhead happy: sick riffage, awesome drumage and insane growlage. Loved your reaction, dude. It made my day.
