NOW WE ARE TALKING | Fit For a King - God of Fire | Reaction & Review

[@Kovs223]

Ryan Kirby tweeted out this morning that this song is really meant to be a live song

[@spiritboxyxbox]

It absolutely slaps live

[@braydenpresley1437]

When FFAK tries to do something different (at least for them) they always hit the nail on the head. Great track.

[@patbateman8116]

I actually really liked Breaking The Mirror. I thought it was a nice change of pace from Dark Skies. Saying that, I do prefer this. It’s the heavy FFAK we pretty much all love. Can’t wait for the album by them! 🤘🤘

[@alexturner493]

This song actually features Ryo from Crystal Lake!!!

[@ethanj5699]

I believe it’s in the 2nd verse

[@CoffeePotGames]

I had no idea until I searched the song on KZbin. So awesome

[@samseison]

Yeah. I wish Ryo did his lows though. 4:36 this comment on the vocals here. Right here. If Ryo did his crazy lows and such, there's no way he would not have noticed! His guest appearance can be missed if you don't know he's there and pay attention. :(

[@nitrouscatfish5827]

That makes perfect sense. I was listening to this thinking damn i never realized how similar ryan's pronunciation was to ryo's lolol.

[@benhostetter4775]

Ryo is on the 2nd verse, probably harmonizes with Kirby on the "BUUUUUURN" growl, and then they alternate + harmonize on different lines after the breakdown.

[@issacsanchez4685]

haha his hand claps were in sync with the song at 4:04 😂

[@nickdotjpg]

😂

[@RJ22]

Decent song but prefer Breaking the mirror

[@ryuiti9886]

2:19 This song features Ryo from Crystal Lake

[@LouGiordano]

I absolutely love FFAK, and you’re right Dark Skies is easily a top 3 album of 2018, but I’ve been really underwhelmed by the first 2 singles off this album.

[@LouGiordano]

Also yes the main riff is the breakdown riff from Wage War’s Low

[@derekperry4516]

React to the new Annisokay - Like a Parasite

[@mxrlxn.sch_]

I second this, you have to listen to it, it's sooooo good man \m/ \m/

[@thewallpersonified3152]

Thank you for telling me about this, I had no idea

[@mxrlxn.sch_]

@@thewallpersonified3152 they are so dope, the final round is another banger of a song by them \m/ Just listened to it for the first time today and I'm obsessed with that chorus man, it's sooooo good \m/ on repeat for a while

[@ZilverBack]

Definitely

[@landonsillyman3996]

YES, one of my new favorites!!

[@ruleofnines9331]

Love this song so much

[@rewoundmusic2312]

I’m getting some Alien vibes in this song.

[@Bryanmeyer26]

I loved Breaking the Mirror as it was a change of pace and in a album it has its place as abit of a ballad

[@jakubskorupa5671]

almost 40k come on guys!

[@fredaymfil]

The riff reminds of low by wage war so bad

[@schmidtyization]

You know its good when the Stanky Face comes out

[@AmAtOrY7]

Just discovered this song on spotify, almost broke my neck

[@silentcurrents]

Breakdown was sick but overall very underwhelming song. Way too repetitive. I heard it twice and didn’t really want to listen to it again because I figured out the entire song. It’s way too bland.

[@raconbacon5649]

Honestly id heard so many good things from those whod heard this live that assumed it would be something like shattered glass. It was a bit too repetitive which is a shame cos thats the only problem i have with this song. I get the vibe of it being ment to be a live song for the pit and kirby confirmed this. I just wish maybe the sections developed a little bit more.

[@max77777]

Agreed. Repetitive and too much electronic synth... Heavy but still disappointing

[@jck1794]

it's definitely gonna slap live though, can't deny that lol

[@shannanosnower6170]

Agreed

[@liambarrett2638]

Ryan Kirby said it was made for live performances tbf

[@KakashiBallZ]

This song has to be a fuck you to Wage War for borrowing Architects' riff in Doomsday lmao.

[@anmerespinal2028]

Main riff remind me of Wage War lol

[@Daltano_Bradley]

Which reminded me or Architects ha

[@caidenjones918]

wage war when wage war was actually good lol

[@christ9388]

Same, the main riff sounds like the breakdown from Low

[@brenny3244]

@@christ9388 agreed

[@Daltano_Bradley]

@@christ9388 and low sounds like... a match made in heaven

[@alexandercarlinmusic9467]

Ryo's on the second verse and all the layering is both of them. I think he's in the breakdown a bit too but I could be wrong.

[@maxgold5750]

Never got into them before but this was really cool and unique for sure! I hope you get a chance to react to the new Avatar song Colossus

[@landonsillyman3996]

Gives me wage war vibes.... and I absolutely LOVE IT

[@cellardoor2883]

I think you need bigger headphones bro.

[@cxnnxr_99]

Breaking The Mirror is way better imo

[@brettmorris2856]

You should check out High Dive in a Low well by 156/Silence! They’re a DIY hard/metalcore band without a label. The whole album is spectacular

[@clintbrooks7753]

You didn't like Breaking the Mirror? Lol, that song absolutely smacks you from start to finish.

[@trevorkreipel6256]

I guess if you’re into that cliche generic metalcore stuff

[@dantezekubara2047]

That riff is exactly the riff from Wage War - Low

[@isaacmitchellofficial7787]

No. Completely different. Some similarities but more different than similar

[@wllulu]

@@joseguerrero4959 sounds so similar of a match made in heaven

[@ParnellJustin10]

I got to hear this live on the very first date of their tour with Crystal Lake, Alpha Wolf and Chelsea Grin. I think I liked it more live than I do listening to it digitally. Ryo joined in live, and like you said, can’t hear him much because of distortion. Overall, solid song.

[@sherman614]

@@joseguerrero4959 It makes me feel better about liking it when I think about it sounding more like Architects than Wage war lol!

[@damianthayer5988]

@@ParnellJustin10 I was supposed to see that tour til fucking corona canceled, never been more disappointed in my life

[@ValkyrieLightwing]

For me it's one of those songs I can listen to and jam out to now and again but that's about it. I do like it, just not enough to really want to listen to it multiple times.

[@GabrielV.]

Gotta be honest, I don't know too much about this band, I've probably listened a couple of songs at best, but I think I'm regretting not having discovered it before, this track slaps and if you actually cover this, I'll be impressed.

[@thedefiant6244]

They played this in Springfield mo a few months back it was maybe my favorite song

[@paulius3452]

The electronics sound like new BMTH a bit.

[@DooDooDaddyTV]

these new FFAK songs are boring

[@SnakePlissken001]

Way too many Wage War vibes from this. I love Wage War, but meh... I wasn’t too enthused about this release from FFAK.

[@frozencinder3007]

Aweeeeeee yessssssssssssssssssss

[@osbornetanvir1155]

love your reaction man try out VINTERSEA - BEFALLEN a female fronted band

[@ItsMillertime13]

So many new riffs sound like Architects lol

[@somedogsarecops2354]

With Bring me the Horizon gone they are the next big band to copy.

[@denis_musicreviews1774]

Decent track. React to At the Altar of Beauty by Svart Crown.

[@Charlie_TU]

You should react to Blackfoot Forest by The Wise Man’s Fear

[@mxrlxn.sch_]

Annisokay - Like a Parasite plsssssss

[@ZilverBack]

Yes

[@SoldierSpiderx]

the way Ryo Kinoshita came it a legend

[@mxrlxn.sch_]

I would love to see you doing a vocal cover of this song :) , this song slaps so damn hard and I love it, straight fire and that main riff omg \m/

[@sebastianthiel282]

Please hit us with a vocal cover of this track! That would be insane!!! 🔥

[@DooDooDaddyTV]

normandie!!! they rock

[@patbateman8116]

owningall yes! They aren’t really heavy but SO SO underrated.

[@howie8599]

Northlane Alien all over, maybe the track Jinn is the best example

[@ZilverBack]

Do Annisokay Like A parasite next

[@metalblakedowns]

You wear your Normandie shirt a lot I just had to say...that band fuckin rips! I love them. They're incredible and no one I know has even heard of them! Respectssss

[@BIGKIZZYCOSTA]

I fucking love this song. intro gives me DOOM vibes.

[@lucasmarques119]

Please react to Sea Smile’ s new EP!!! It s a Brazilian band. Love your channel!!!

[@depracated]

This might surpass Trilogy for best song, it's perfect.

[@AlistairBooth]

This song is mad but you should check out the song Dystopia by In Hearts Wake, it is a pretty good song and reminds me low-key of Billy talent.

[@saarxddd]

This song is a bit different than their usual style and I think it will fill the story of the album. The song being repetitive is the power of this song in my opinion. It gives me 2013 Underoath vibes.

[@nickdotjpg]

this album is shaping up to be one of the best of 2020. im impressed by this song. expiramentation always catches my attention.

[@NenuxTitanRsr]

Holy shit what even is this song.. 10/10

[@jasonlovesmusicreacting882]

Hoping they bring in the riffs on new material. Isn't Daniel of Phinehas in the band now? I mean, he's literally the riff God of the scene... This just sounds like Wage War's most generic songs.

[@DirtyWellington]

I’ve been running away again, chasing after all the battles I can never... wait, different song.

[@koyle8384]

This album is going to be amazing, calling it now.

[@pascalsiegl8010]

Loved it actually

[@matt_core]

Very very strange song

[@trevorkreipel6256]

Jared from FFAK said this isn’t the heaviest track on the song.

[@mateoottie]

I think you mean album😂

[@Raksh95]

that riff is the only thing good about this song, ffak arent good songwriters in general.

[@sherman614]

That main riff sounds reeeaalllyy similar to the main riff of Low by Wage war. I really like this song though.

[@bvanquish777]

This will be AOTY

[@afscrew123]

Polaris is gonna take the cake

[@ajfite1277]

August Burns red has a killer album and so did MTS, Currents, and the Ghost Inside has a nice one too

[@bvanquish777]

[@jasonlovesmusicreacting882]

@@ajfite1277 ABR, and Trivium so far for me. If Silent Planet and Every Time I Die release stuff then there will be tough competition.

Way too far away from a AOTY. Unreqvited, Trivium, Regarde Les Hommes Tomber, Skyforest, Caligula's Horse and Svart Crown did release AOTY stuff.

Same riff as low by wage war.
