[@barbarafrazier3242]

Agree!!!

[@braddfinch9318]

Ronnie said in an interview imagine a superhero coming to save the world, and the people not showing appreciation, so he just sits back and “watches the world burn”. The song is basically a blast on the mainstream media pumping out constant lies during 2020. Hence “break the fkn chains, take back your lives”

[@Ericsaidful]

He’s also in a hospital gown talking to his demons who he is conversing with until the get on the same page, at which point he is sent back to reality, becomes possessed in the church and burns the world down. His Demons caught a ride, because of peoples sensitivities, people attacking his past, people likely labeling him as a Satan worshipper in churches, etc. So it’s “if this is what you call me, so it will be”.

[@Ericsaidful]

Are you saying Ronnie is Red Pilled and that the snakes are the Don’t Tread on Me flag? 2020 was fucked. Between the medias lies, the government working with social media to label, distort, and block information flow, the shutdowns, and everything. People lost all control and still haven’t gained that shit back.

[@NamiMakimono]

@@EricsaidfulThank you for this! I’ve seen this video countless times but was always kinda confused how that scene with the demon and typewriter played into the story. Your explanation makes a lot of sense. (^~^) 💕🦋

[@Ericsaidful]

@@NamiMakimono Apparently he also “sold his soul to the devil” as a sort of joke when he was younger. Said he wrote the contract, signed it in blood and everything but he wasn’t being for real. The deal was to make him famous or some shit. Shortly after that Escape the Fate took off, then obviously after prison, Falling in Reverse took off. So the scene may have something to do with him trying to either get out of that contract at which point he is told no, sent back, and is the demon.

[@npcimknot958]

[@tearesa37]

Code words back in high school for me and my bestie were Escape The Fate kicks ass.

[@jbrock11]

As far as the religion thing goes, I don't think Ronnie was attacking Christianity specifically. The song is more or less about how social media and the media in general can paint a narrative about someone and have people brainwashed enough to believe anything. Towards the end it's made pretty apparent by all the people seemingly getting their soul drained through their phones. This song is Ronnie's response to that kind of monolithic thinking. It's basically him saying fu*k what people say about you. The only one that controls your narrative at the end of the day is you. "Break the fu*king chains, take back your life!"

[@sweetthang4970]

Really appreciate your response-thank you for your description of the video. I watched it again and was able to understand it better.

What is every artist just obsessed with Christianity? Like look the beginning was great but why do you have to bring people's believe into this just because he know Christians won't try to kill him or sue him like let him try this with muslims and everyone would agree he is Islamophobic but when i comes to christianity its ok to do whatever you want

[@Mannyxz]

@@andriontech Yeap I have the same question.

[@adriantrusca1245]

[@Araphex]

The video is about being seen as a villain and never pushing back, but then you get to a breaking point and become the monster everyone portraited you to be. Ronnie also has an affinity for video games, star wars, cyber punk, and horror. The nuns are literally portraited from the movie called The Nun, about a demonic monster that resembles a nun. The video also references Call of Duty, Bane from DC Comics, Metal Gear Solid, Cyberpunk 2077, The Exorcist, Brightburn/Evil Superman, and the Pheonix from Marvel Comics in that order. I'm still unsure what the scene with him and the demon typing references but I know it's from something because it looks familiar. The point is, the entire song is about being pushed to the breaking point when you did nothing wrong, being hated just for being who you are, eventually you'll become the villain everyone portraits you to be.

[@Ericsaidful]

I like how the very beginning ties into the end. Before he jumps out of the plane he references a weapon. Everyone on first watch thinks he’s going to drop a bomb, but he’s the bomb. And it’s a ticking time bomb that has been pushed too far. So he effectively became what he was portrayed as, likely by the church.

[@ddbangtannim2270]

This makes so much sense, thank you for explaining this

[@Ericsaidful]

@@ddbangtannim2270 no problem man.

[@Ericsaidful]

@@ddbangtannim2270 I also think him saying “I’m going darth, I’m going Disney, into the darkness, into infinity” that he’s making two references, Buzz Lightyear and Infinity Wars. He effectively became Thanos and destroyed the world

[@demonsmasheroni7354]

Sums it up lol

[@tomnag3750]

I can see how some people might be offended by the visuals, but im pretty sure the message of the song is about continuing to push people past there breaking point, and they become the monster they were being portrayed to be. And the symblizism is the priest trying to do a exorcism on said monster.

[@lexiepaigeh]

This.

[@iAmDiBBz]

Hence the "One day you're going to figure out that everything you've been taught was a lie" Ronnie does very well at injecting passion that he dislikes with the current state of the world as well as with himself and whats happening in his life!

The scene with the red banners in the background is a clear reference to "The Force Awakens". In the lyrics he even says "About to go Darth, about to go Disney". They're using this reference to tell the plot about people portraying him as the villain that he actually ain't. But since everyone is portraying him as villain anyway, he's simply going for it and now going Darkside to teach everyone a lesson

The thing about Falling in Reverse, and Ronnie Radkie (the creative force of the band) is that all the music they’ve been doing for the past couple years has been really relevant and relatable…mental illness, addiction, cancel culture, etc. also, the songs have been awesome and the videos epic. I think you’d really enjoy digging deeper into their catalog.

If youre Falling In Reverse, youre going UP. This type of commentary is exactly why Ronnie does what he does. To get you LISTEN.

[@thebenis3219]

The snakes were likely a reference to 'lurking predators' in the industry. The 'snake' is often referenced as a duplicitous backstabber that will kill you from cover. An ambush predator if you will. Or it could be a reference to the Ouroboros, a serpent devouring itself only to end up rebirthing itself. The concept of 'eternity' if you will. As for the Christianity question, I actually feel like this a slight of hand on Ronnie's part. If you recall earlier in the song, he referenced that today people are 'more sensitive' and a lot of this has to do with todays political climate. There's a mob of very outspoken hyper politically correct people online and a ton of politicians pushing 'lies' these days and people have quite literally replaced religion in their lives with it.

Theres a GI Joe movie out called snake eyes. They put people in a deep hole for judgment. In the hole come two snakes. They slither in a circle. While the main family and others spectate. If the snakes deem you unworthy, they attack you and eat you.

[@maddielkaye]

Hey guys! Love the channel! I am absolutely amazed that this is the first FiR video you tackled! The vocalist is Ronnie Radke. He’s not the way people make him out to be, and nothing he’s saying is truly controversial. Just his methods. And he doesn’t conform which clearly he’s not afraid to make know. He just sees everything as it truly is, which means he also sees through people’s bullshit. It’s a rare gift some of us have on a Soul level. As for the video. If you go back to the ending- without thinking about the fact that he’s burning a bunch of people- and just listen to what he’s saying: “Fear is what keeps you alive, break the fucking chains, take back your life” and “The fear is what keeps you insane, break the fucking chains, bring back the pain” The way I took this is that because he went all villain bc of people’s bullshit, they refuse to hear the message the song offers as a whole. They pick apart his lyrics and make things sound bad out of context just because the don’t like him. What he was saying in the end is that we’re all numb, living life in a haze, listening to everyone else and not ourselves, doing what everyone else wants you to do, being who others want you to be. And that we buy into the mass fear our society creates to distract us from what’s REALLY going on in the world, which causes people to be unstable. His method is using topics that will trigger people so that they will actually think about things, and maybe open their eyes. And to prove his point. As for those who just keep hating? Psh, just some more views for them.

What’s up guys, this video has a lot of symbolism in it. The point is now days everyone lives in fear the media the world shits on everything and keeps us in a constant panic. Well a lot of folks suffer from their own personal demons. This video touches on the beef that a 1980s rocker had with him. Also a few other beers that he had with other artist who ran their mouth. Ronnie has done an amazing job showing his art. This video gives me vibes of Star Wars doomsday the boys all kinds of cinematic influences are on display here. Either way the whole angel vs demons things are to grab your attention. Even the church of satan is just a sarcastic rendition of Christianity. Art is subjective and meant to make everyone feels something different. Shocking images help people convey emotional connections. So do t read too much into it

[@seigeengine]

RR is definitely an artist unto himself. I think his references to demons is the connection to Catholicism and Exorcism as a way of discussing Established religion. Which is to say religion as a social construct to inundate and indoctrinate rather than teach, love, and encourage. His dad actually started a Bikers for Jesus church so he has a bit of background in Christianity.

[@juicesghost8501]

HA HA YES! Thanks guys for doing this so quick, I really wanted to see your reaction to this and it didnt disappoint. A couple counter points- The reason this is trending isnt because of the demonic imagery, its trending because this band took 3 different genres of music, blended it seamlessly, and murdered it on all sides. Ronnie had no less than three different rap flows, into a rock song, and then into a metal song. Nobody out here doing this, and if they are it is not at this level. Add into the production value in this video, this thing is on another level for American music, only people putting this much energy into videos is Kpop these days. Why is it ok to attack Christians but not Jews? I believe that was where you were going with that, and while it is a long and nuanced subject. I think you may be able to understand it from the point of history, Jewish people have not always been prosecuted for their religion, but more of discriminated against because of their regional background early in the 1900s (in America specifically, not speaking of thousands of years of world history). The discrimination was more racially charged throughout history into WW2 (you know about Hitler I hope), and generally I think people today talk about anti-semitism, they are more talking about discrimination of a people, not the religion itself (I hope that kind of makes sense, its more racially charged even though Judaism is a religion of all kinds of different people). Also, why is it ok to make fun of christians, or why is the devil/demonic stuff popular, well, we live in a free country baby, where we don't have to live under the threat of murder for bad mouthing Mohammed or any other religious figures. Shock value is shock value, and for those who are agnostic/atheist, the Devil is not real and just a character, which can be entertaining, thats why you see it glorified in entertainment, not because people are devil worshipers. Lastly, before you feel like you are being persecuted for being Christian, remember Christianity has a long history of not so good moments (I implore you to study the crusades) and not everyone feels the same way you do about it, and thats ok! We live in a free society where we can think for ourselves, and live together, even with people taking sides so passionately.

Isn’t he also implying that he’s being crucified (this crown of thorns) and the people who are crucifying him are “holier than thou”. (Priest)

[@melyndadaugherty2779]

@@robinpyron4567 his crown of thorns actually is covering up an old tattoo. It is likely that it was the best way to cover what he previously had. But he also does get crucified and judged (as you just did) in the public eye.

[@estherruth4692]

I would push back on the religion thing. I’m pretty sure he was talking about religion in general - probably had in mind Hinduism or Islam. Most Christians love Jewish people and consider Judaism to be a very important part in the history of Christianity. Also, I think you should study up on the Crusades (not that I really care because I’m not catholic, so I don’t consider the crusades to have anything to do with my beliefs), and understand what happened. The crusades are not the religious war of aggression people seem to think, but rather a counterattack to re-claim territory that belonged to them. Also look into the millions of European slaves the Moors owned. That was also part of the history during the crusades. Anyhoo, something to think about, I know we all come in with our own experience and bias of things, always nice to hear someone else’s perspective.

Shoutout to the dude on the left. Lol giving a breakdown of Star wars

[@icednick]

man this guy on the right is really getting into this song 😂 i love his vibe

[@assassinNXL13]

around 12 minutes yall got the whole vibe of the entire video and song. Everything Ronnie goes through and deals with he is open with. He doesn’t hide his stories. But a lot of people continuously try and label him a monster, a drug abuser, all things negative but he is truly such a positive and uplifting person no matter what anyone else says or thinks. He truly is. So in the end he exposes that this world is flawed beyond repair and no matter what he does he will always be the villain to the world. He’s telling everyone to break the chains and take back their life, but they’re running away from his as if he is actually a devil trying to kill them. Notice how he is only in white clothing when he’s talking to the goblin but every other scene he’s dressed as what appears to be a villain. He’s just a mastermind exposing the worlds flaws and victimized while doing so

[@ronaldov09]

I'm guessing most of the people that label him these things are Christians?

[@Mad9977]

another Falling in Reverse masterpiece, Rap, Rock, Metal screams and the video is Hollywood quality 👍

[@jhemarca2596]

I love how you can see them nodding one by one then all of them is vibing hard

[@TheCasualGamer13]

I love how the heads start collectively start nodding hahah

[@carolmillins9199]

I sent a link of this video for my granddaughter to watch..she said " it's already on my playlist" This grandma was late to the party😂

[@rhythmframebige6090]

from my understanding this song is about him wanting us all to wake up to the spiritual war that is going on RIGHT NOW

[@sylence2012]

You guys need to react to “Last resort” by Falling in Reverse. They did a reimagining of an old papa roach song. It just shows how much range Ronnie radek has and pure talent

[@DrowningPonyo]

Dude on the left is mad chill. Knows a bunch of stuff this song is referencing, so good for him.

[@javalily]

You're the first ones to mention all the symbolism. Kudos. He sold his soul to be a performer is what I take from it.

[@xXCurlyWurlyXx]

It's not about selling his soul.. It's a shot at how organised religion can twist and misuse the word of God and use fear to control people's lives. Notice how the Catholic priest burnt but the bible didn't.

[@plaguedoctor5657]

@@xXCurlyWurlyXx just remember Ronnie is also standing in front of baphamat stars (aka satan symbols) when he’s in front of the red banners. You could be anti organized religion but also support satanism…. So what did Ronnie really mean? Idk it’s weird

[@MarioAPN]

It is just a symbolism of industry and people that are going after him. Nothing more, nothing less.

[@TheeAmethystEmpress6589]

No they're not.

[@thomaskatje14]

No, he trained hard and has talent, that is how he became a performer.

[@RealMistyRose]

This was like rap, rock, metal, opera so many genres combined & mixed beats & flow switches, varied cadences & double time triple time flows, intense lyrics, great overall sound etc. This guy & group are next level. I will admit as a former lifelong Catholic now born again Christian; despite all the props I just gave & totally admit is there talent & skill wise ....I was a little bit disturbed by 90% of the imagery in the video 🙏 The best song I've EVER heard by them & speaking str8 facts I feel their #1 song was 2020 Popular Monster. I would LOVE to see you fellas react to it next 🙏💯🤙😁 great reaction as always much Love 💖

[@rbernardo4748]

lmao "IS THAT THE PASTOR?!" 😂😂😂

The Star Wars story in the middle 😂

Heck yea finally! 😂🤣 We need some more falling in reverse!!!

This is art. Epic mashup of genres to create a thought provoking experience. Awesomeness! 😬

Watching the reaction when the priest gets set on fire is hilarious 😂😂.

[@user-ld6jg1dq2l]

Guys, I really enjoyed watching your reaction to this video. We say "this guy burns with napalm" ahahah. He's going to be a legend, I'm sure. With love from Russia :)

[@Swiftwar_]

Lets gooooo, finally got the Family reacting to FIR, which is what was on the banners they had at 4:00 , if yall wanna hear another one thats insane, "Drugs" by Falling In Reverse is FIRE

[@3v3rb0t]

That scene with the big red banners is similar to a scene in one of the more recent star wars movies. It's when they are addressing the first order soldiers. This was modeled after a Roman Triumph in which they would celebrate the victory of general or soldiers. Nazi Germany would later use similar imagery to celebrate their evil. The line " About to go Darth, about to go Disney Into the darkness, into infinity," is a play on Darth Vaders decent from good to evil and a reference to Buzz Lightyear "To Infinity and Beyond" Line. Disney now owns Star Wars... clever wordplay and nerdy af references.

[@seigeengine]

I mean, I don't know whether the iconic imagery of vertical red banners that is commonly used to denote authoritarian factions in fiction as a product of it's use by the nazis harkens back to Rome, though I know the nazis tended to.

[@Cassidymarie95]

"OH shit was that the pastor" 😂😂❤

First time on this channel . Seen so many reactions but the guy on the right left laughing so hard his reaction 😂😂😂 his jaw drop when it switched to metal I loved it
