Slaughter To Prevail Has Become MORE Than Deathcore

[@Jalabhar_Xho]

I guess we can officially start calling their style 'slaughtercore', now.

[@chronic_hatred2k22]

Yes let's do that

[@mediumvillain]

youve been holding onto that one huh

[@PaytonSmith-c1k]

There are to many sub genres just delete some and add slaughtercore

[@Jalabhar_Xho]

​@@PaytonSmith-c1kthere actually already is something called slaughtercore. We just need to hijack the label

[@user-cp7hx5mk2u]

You haven't, huh?​@@mediumvillain

[@GoH4rD1337]

Alex actually said in an interview that the fighters offered them to fight for real but asked for more payment so they are not really fighting

[@TankTheTech]

Oooooooh.

[@Ericsaidful]

@@TankTheTechHe did a podcast with Nik where he talks about the song. His impression was sort of what everyone else’s was. 1. It’s going to blow the roof off of places live 2. The word live and live are the same but mean two different things depending on context 3. They made the song to fuel the train they’ve got moving 4. They are working on shit I’m fucking excited. They got me back into the scene because it got too generic and, dare I say “pop” like in that there was a model that everyone was following. Slaughter seems to be going their own way. That led me back to Falling in Reverse who I’d dropped after the sad boy days got old. Ronnie is probably the most underrated musician of a big genre(s) right now and that shit kills me.

[@nubtublol]

I was there and it was all staged but there was an accidental connection, which is pretty cool

[@ShitYourself7]

Nobody fighting in any videos are actually fighting kid

[@alexandercorey850]

They are becoming one of my favorite bands. I can't remember the last time I was this hyped for an upcoming album

[@ManG1aze]

For me it was currents, and u prevail. So fucking stoked for new stp

[@wallynboy]

I got to be part of the conflict video. It was such a good day, they were all friendly and made sure they got pictures with everyone individually. It was just like a live show all day. About 20 takes 😂

[@martinpotrea748]

[@Lawzika]

I can hear the Pantera influence now 😍

[@DragonTigerBoss]

People in chat had the nerve to say there wasn't enough illegal cage fighting in a Slaughter to Prevail video. 🤔

[@insertgenericusernamehere2402]

It's not illegal if it's sanctioned.

[@3rdreichball525]

All fun and games until someone brings civil law suits against you. They are protected from criminal court, but civil litigation is a huge risk for a band. Especially a metal band

[@troymodin1682]

Great reaction. This is how I learned of electric callboy from you. Can't get enough of those guys and you. Keep up the great work buddy 👍

[@sodanaxpharina7200]

absolutly phantastic when bands start stop running after trends and do their own styles .. thank you Slaughter To Prevail

[@rainetanner9884]

I am pleased to see more people reacting to STP. I really love this music, it's power, it's energy. Kind of like metal in the 80's. Love it!

[@DeadBadWolf]

I'm sooooo excited to see them at Download this year. I was depressed as hell when I missed the January London concert, but I was just back from going to the Samurai Pizza Cats tour and had no money 😅😅

[@shagrathmostis]

I'm the same bro, so can't wait. Feel like we've been spoiled with deathcore bands this year at download. Slaughter to prevail, they art is murder, shadow of intent, brand of sacrifice plus metal bands crystal lake, fit for a king, dying fetus, erra, make them suffer. Such a stacked under card

[@brothathyne5017]

I can't wait to see Slaughter To Prevail at the paladium later this year!!

[@Greg-wh7bi]

Bro just finished watching your day 5 ELECTRIC CALL OUT BOY tour vlog. And man I must say u sure have a dope life, a man above men,,, big kudos for you and the great person you are,,, really opened my eyes to you as a person, much love brother,,,

[@alex_inchains]

Alex-gator is just insane and addicting to listen to. So stoked for their US tour this year and the lineup really is wild. I’ve been dying to finally see them.

[@dtpfeiffer]

It's so cool and interesting to see the hype around this band grow outside of just the deathcore scene and see them gain traction with a wider audience. This video was actually trending in the low 20s for the first day or two after it dropped. I agree that they have come a long way in the last few years.

[@ejune0381]

Already bought tickets for Oklahoma so excited to see all three artists.

[@filipposetti2220]

I just wrote the same thing on Ohrion Reacts, but I think this was written as the perfect, ideal song to play live, maybe to open a gig. It's fast, direct, melts your face quickly, get people pumped up and sets the tone for the rest of the performance. Love it, also perfect for workout

[@aWildNelby]

I love the riffs and the way Alex almost licks out his vocals at times, but I cant get over the line in Russian that sounds like “I FARTED! GRRRRRRRRR!” 😂

[@aWildNelby]

Also “It’s only you and me and fat f*ckin’ cornflakes!”

[@rebekahcarter8120]

Wild track/videos. I love their riffs. Man, I wish that tour were coming to VA or the Carolinas!

[@Cocked_dolly_grip]

The closest looks like Atlanta. Road trip car pool?

Sadly, 2024 ain't looking to great. I'm glad I caught them in Richmond last summer

[@rebekahcarter8120]

[@BoldDreadman]

@@DannyPhilipsen Yeah!!! Planning to see them too on DL no matter what will be on other stages!! 5 day event for me ❤️🤘Have a great one mate🤜🤛

[@asowofviolence]

I reviewed these guys' first album for Ghost Cult back in 2017 and I agree, Tank; it's crazy to see how they've grown. Reading that review so many years later, it's funny to see that my opinion of them both then and now is almost spot-on to yours. 😉

[@kendepp8102]

Riffs are why I'm loving music from (especially) Disembodied Tyrant and (to a lesser extent) Synestia. I especially like that the former is occupying a sort of "prog" section of deathcore, and we're getting repeated riffs rather than repeated verses and choruses. I hope these bands someday get the attention that Slaughter to Prevail has, and I'm really looking forward to what all of these bands will do in the future.

[@meloneyfidler2750]

I've been waiting for you to react to this video, you're awesome...please keep videos coming!🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼

[@danielhigginbotham1867]

Was lucky enough to catch these guys recently in Melbourne, soooo fkn good, Alex vocals are insane 🤘👊

[@aaaannnn1]

The beginning of this song reminds me of the beginning of Cemican - Guerreros de Cemican.

I'm super psyched for Resurrection Fest in Spain this summer. Electric Callboy + Slaughter to Prevail on the same day 🤘🏼

[@CALL-EEEN-JUAN-JUAN-DUDE]

I would love to see Kublai Khan Tx collab with Slaughter to Prevail! Matt Honeycutt and Alex Terrible's vocals would be insane to hear together.

[@_Arugula_Salad_]

Antpile came up on my friend's spotify and I LOVE that track

[@stigmurder99]

💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪😁

[@BrianYates-ue8hf]

That line up is definitely worth going to see considering I'm physically disabled and it would be an adventure lol I saw FFDP way back in like 08-09 with my then 10 yr old daughter I was also a Manson fan and saw him live and he puts on a seriously good show so it'll be interesting to see if he still has it I think STP will be the winners on this particular tour package I think with the added riffage and weird guitar sounds it fills up the space better than a sample or pad When I first heard 1984 I knew they were branching off and crystallizing their overall sound ✌️🧐🤘

[@colonelhstinkmeaner8547]

FFDP and Manson are good but they suck if you're sober😂

[@aaronr4187]

I kinda feel like they are doing what slipknot did back in the day. Slipknot came out with their own style and didn't care if anyone liked it. I seriously doubt Alex is far off from his ceiling in vocals and the rest of the band seems like they are all on the same page.

[@aaronr4187]

Meat to say far from his ceiling but my phone didn't cooperate

[@hazardgaminghg122]

I just found this song yesterday and now I'm hooked, even though it came out a month ago.

[@lashamumlauri1660]

I noticed only now that they’re a 5 piece band again. Fuck yeah!!!

[@jt624]

07:15 Totally agree, I love the other tones that Alex is learning to use with his voice. The dude is really getting dynamic, but yet staying true to Death Metal!!!!

[@awg6397]

I hate that Im gonna have to buy tickets to a 5FDP show to see Slaughter to Prevail

[@Drake45100]

Can't understand how people seriously like FFDP but I give it to Slaughter to Previal, they deserve this tour

[@jamiecote7313]

Huge Manson fan, got tickets for first show on that tour. So stoked.

[@KytexEdits]

My favorite comment about this was "Huge day for guys that wear sunglasses behind their heads and scream at their girlfriends in public" LOL.

[@derubor]

I like what Alex does on his KZbin himself more, tbh. For me, the best thing he ever did, his band included, is his cover of BFG Division.

[@DonaldMolter]

Full disclosure I’m not a fan of deathcore but there’s something about these guys and then add in the charisma of Alex and his dynamic range and it’s a perfect recipe for something amazing.

Alex has been doing highs for a long time, especially live. His highs sound kinda similar to Mitch Lucker.

I have a feeling that the Kyles out there are going to absolutely annihilate some drywall this year.

[@yulligoteckg2]

9:23 I belive that on the Nik nocturnal podcast interview, Alex had said that they didn't apply any vocal effects, when he have growel that low, that takes dedication for Alex to experiment with his vocals.

If we’re talking extreme metal, these guys are going to go beyond and into the mainstream more than any others. I of course like other bands more but damn I’m so down to see these guys go far.

[@theabominator22]

just getting this in early, but when Tank mentioned about them not focusing on breakdown's and more on riffs I can see what he means if you go back and listen to the likes of Demolisher and Baba Yaga, the breakdowns in both of those songs are heavy and what you hear a lot of the time so to hear them focusing on the riffs more is quite pleasant to see and hear!

Slaughter to Prevail and Falling in Reverse are easily my two favorite groups right now and they need to do a fucking collab. Alex breakdowns on a Falling in Reverse track would be insanity.

[@RyanLoper9]

Their music is obviously why they’ve blown up, BUT Alex has essentially taken the UFC’s playbook with The Ultimate Fighter series. Due to his social media presence, people get to see his personality and end up being more interested overall. Same with Will doing the videos with The Charismatic Voice. Quality reaction channels have certainly helped me get into, and love, metal. Thanks, Tank!

I just wish the song was longer. It leaves me wanting more. As far as their crowds go, I saw STP last year, when I was 52. There was a kinda attractive woman standing near me, enjoying the show… and her boyfriend, a guy in a baseball cap, watching her and completely ignoring STP. It’s likely he was just there to make sure no one stole his girl.

I've seen plenty of bands use different brands of year like Motionless in white for example their guitarist Ricky has used Ibanez exclusively for years not sure what basses he used when he was the bass player for a short time and the other guitarist Ryan started on Schecter then ESP guitars for about a decade now. Also Slipknot guys are used different brands or even Trivium.
