SLAUGHTER TO PREVAIL “K.O.D.” | Aussie Metal Heads Reaction

[@jo_sh6798]

4:40 love how it’s “how can I be scarier” but when you meet him, he’s like a big teddy bear, bro is so wholesome

[@wadewilson7527]

I know Alex vocals are insane and all. But for this song it's the instrumentals that really sold me. Especially the guitars!

[@devilwearsprada2100]

That higher pitched lead at the end gets me everytime

[@hoax813]

Absolutely. The drums and guitar riffs stole the show on this one for sure.

[@LyanO_]

they definitely taking a more melodical approach on the instruments and im here for it.

[@kyllianharper2064]

Definitely

[@Redleadhead]

The leads are so good in this song

[@jaredheynig197]

i remember reading or seeing somewhere that alex is kind of tired of doing the deathcore sound and vocals so this album there working was susposdly going to be the last deathcore element? I don't know if that was true or not

[@SuiteMeat]

Definitely gave me Parkway Drive Vibes

[@SynFuZe]

@@jaredheynig197 I can see it. the new songs they've been playing live have a very ambient sound. More melodies and orchestral sounds, and I love it.

[@Dyrtbag68]

“I Am The Dark” self awareness never sounded so terrifying.

[@jhamilton1007]

This song has a very NuMetal vibe to it.

[@randywissler9923]

Alex said a little while back that they were wanting to back away from deathcore some and lean into nu-metal more.

[@anthonyrcorrado]

Agreed, 6:47 gives off Slipknot vibes

[@shimik11]

the people getting offended over what alex says are people who spend their days on twitter with nothing else better to do with their lives. The more we ignore them, the better.

[@andresamell9367]

"you guys should fight" was the best part of the video for me hahaha

[@dtpfeiffer]

Alex had eye surgery a little while back, so that probably gave him the idea for the contact. I was hoping they would drop Behelit, which is my favorite of the new songs they've been playing live. This is good though and it's grown on me with every listen.

[@dapaintbrush6965]

You guys have amazing reactions honestly. This slaughter song slaps so hard in my opinion. Everything about this song hits 10/10 for me. That breakdown hit like a brick for me. I know people with have different thoughts to me but that's how it is. He sounds like a cod zombie in the breakdown ❤️❤️🔥🔥

[@jacobemigh1144]

I am never offended by lyrics, i only learn them to sing along and hope i sound like them. Love Alex and his music!

[@jordymckibbs6613]

This band is awesome. Great song. Great reaction 🤘

[@Ban00dle]

FYI there was a mix up with the release of this song. Alex released the video early on his own channel against the will of the record label due to a dispute. However they cleared things up and they're all good now but thats why the video came out so much earlier than it was available on Spotify.

[@Whiskers74]

Loving this new track. For me, it's sound is like 1984 meets Baba Yaga. It's not their "usual" sound, but it still works. 🤘

[@sverchkovnikolai2504]

Эта мелодия до мурашек. Хз где я ее слышал, но что-то очень знакомое и личное.

[@jo_sh6798]

7:53 Alex turning into a zombie from COD Zombies

[@nicj.tessier1689]

the start of the song is real similar to DIG by Mudvayne and this video is the exact same video for DIG.

[@NicholasCorvin]

*Well, if the video for "DIG" would have been the whole time with white background, then it would be the exact same video, but it is not. In that "DIG" video are enough sequences that are playing before dark background. So, it is not the same video.....* 🎵🎸📺🤔🧐

[@MOOOSEPISS]

Boom! Roasted

[@NicholasCorvin]

*And the start of the song is not so "real similar", it might reminds you, but "K.O.D." starts immediately with guitar sound, while "DIG" sounds like vocals mixed with synths plus FX sounds...* 🎵🤔🧐🎵

[@robdurfee6861]

@@NicholasCorvinthe guitar harmony reminds me more of SOAD way more than Mudvayne so idk why OP said Dig lol

[@madedits2228]

DIG is what first came to mind ahahah! Which is not a bad thing!

[@simonight_art]

I really like this new song! Great reaction, and I love this high guitar sounds really melodic and nice 🤘🏻

[@StevelandCleamer]

Now that I’m listening to this song and looking at the video, I’m realizing that is seems like a total homage to Mudvayne

[@25thcenturyman]

Song is top notch.

[@stephenmorgan7233]

This song is really growing on me

[@violacesario4389]

Wait, Johnny where are you getting your cod? I like cod because it lacks the little bones! Also, Alex did say that he layers his vocals in parts in this song.

[@nemoooooooo13]

The “controversy” was all about the ending where he is screaming solo. People are (still) arguing that he is using effects and manipulating his voice because they think it’s just not possible to sound like that. Alex released a video on Instagram explaining that he did 2 takes (one higher, one lower) and used some effect like reverb or something, as everyone does.

[@Nonenonenone2323]

That nostalgic tone felt a bid like Sepultura ‘Roots Bloody Roots’ to me. 🤔

[@trendkill6942]

This band shows different sides to each release.

[@thomashovgaard3134]

As a listener of heavy since the 80s. Went through it all and few remains. Napalm Death, Carcass, Iron Maiden, King Diamond etc...Id have to say, this is up there. Raw energy. I dont need to know the lyrics to get the message. The older you get, the more references you hear. What sounded like SOD to you , sounded like Led Zeppelin to me 🙂

[@SanitisedAnarchy]

I may be commenting on the wrong video. Ive been watching a bunch N+J tonight. You mentioned having to do the show by yourself Johnny and how different it is... I feel the same way when I try to do my own radio show solo. I used to have a co-host, and it just feels so much better to have a mate to bounce ideas and banter off of. Doing the show solo after having that great back and forth was a nightmare for me.

[@nathandjohnny]

It’s also the fact that enjoying music with a friend is a great time.

[@jakhondi21]

The instrumentals bring back August burns red vibes

[@slaers1947]

For some reason, at the beginning of watching I remembered the song Mudvayne - Dig. I don’t know if it’s just me or not?)))

[@DiegoPeron94]

Great Reaction, hello from Brazil 🤘🤘♥️

[@elangtetuko97]

Mudvayne vibes

[@leavezgaming]

4:34 got me laughing so hard. 🤣🤣

[@two_days_slow]

Not sure why peoole are surprised about what an individual who grew up in Russia feels about things 🤷‍♂️

[@karimabdelkarim6437]

BRUH that's so racist wtf💀💀💀why u generalizing like that?

[@two_days_slow]

@karimabdelkarim6437 read it again. We are all a product of where and what we grew up with. The city I grew up in very backward thinking when it comes to social issues, which is why I moved away from there 20 years ago.

[@heffatheanimal2200]

Ahhhh!! But cod is a freshwater fish, so technically it's not seafood 🤣🤣🤣

[@mikej596]

The guitar reminds me of billy talent red flag . Also call of duty called they want their zombie back!

[@ZODD__]

3:31 start . save your time mate

[@nathandjohnny]

There’s always one 😘

[@delta3675]

I get a COD zombie vibe from the scream people don’t like. It’s interesting but I don’t hate it, but I see why some might not like it.

[@marshalltaylor6867]

I have that BOS shirt!

[@Mike-rg2dg]

Can’t wait for the new Electric Callboy Babymetal reaction 👀👀

[@Nanang-ig8pw]

Please reaction drummer metal from indonesia, is name oki fadlan " JASAD- SILIWANGI " 🙏

[@mivk5431]

The clip also has a very SOAD toxicity vibe

[@Cwatt-dc9gr]

Word

[@ArtDadDraws]

People getting at Alex because he's not progressive enough for them is peak brainrot. He'd probably come around to being accepting (which he's even said he's working on himself-he's Russian, it's gonna take time to undo a lifetime of conditioning) if Twitter dweebs stopped trying to cancel him lol

[@XxnatrocksxX]

Honestly straight up. Alex is an extremely honest individual and he’s gone on to reveal a lot about his checkered past. He’s grown so much and yeah people are making it harder for themselves by being like “bUt aLeX is a NeO nAzI

[@ArtDadDraws]

@@XxnatrocksxX the only people who care about his history are the people who will never actually listen to STP or give him a second chance. So yeah they're just noisy busybodies

Love you boys and have done since you were on Naths channel, and will continue to! Personally disagree with platforming someone with a 'fruitful' history shall we say. Judt a quick google search would reveal all. Looking forward to future content as always

[@jillonair]

Completely useless fun fact: there's a strip club in one of the suburbs by where I live that's called King of Diamonds.

[@danielescobardiaz]

[@northernxdarkness]

Yk, we in germany we don't like nazis, homophobes & transphobes. Maybe you should educate yourself. Also everyone who's hating on us for being against those type of people, maybe you should educate yourself too. We have morale, you have none. I don't get how it's so hard not to support discrimination. Unless you like discriminating people ofc.

i mean, his name IS alex terrible...

Kinda expected you to not to react to these horrible people. If you don't know yet you should look up what Alex Terrible thinks about LGBT folks.

[@MOOOSEPISS]

Lol. He’s terrible, because he has an opinion……..

[@NoxLJ]

@@MOOOSEPISS Nah, he's terrible because of what his opinion is. He's free to think and say these things and we're free to judge him based on that.

[@MOOOSEPISS]

@@NoxLJ That’s fair. Free thinking/speaking both ways

[@MOOOSEPISS]

Also Russia as a country has very negative opinions on this topic

[@axiom.ai.obviousbattletank7139]

Boneless wings don't exist. You're eating chicken nuggets little boy. I don't discount your automatic vitriolic disgust. But, you're now off the camping buddy list. What's next Nancy?
