As a black man who used to only listen to Hip-Hop back in the day, this song and Iron Maiden's "Number of the beast" got me into heavy metal. Been a huge fan every since.
Thank you for your entertaining reaction. As an old "metal kid" from the 80s I am impressed how clearly you analyzed the song and discovered that metal is not about being deeply evil just for the sake of it, but express the feelings and message of a topic just in another way. Sorry I don't know your names, but the guy with the red basecap always impresses me with his deepness and his efforts to try to understand the background of a song - even of a maybe different genre, than he is usually is listening to. He is always focused on the songs and the videos - that's really a honest way to react to a song. Keep on going guys.
Megadeth lead guitarist/singer, Dave Mustaine, was the original lead guitarist in Metallica. He co-wrote some of the best of the songs on Kill Em All and Ride the Lightning for Metallica before he was kicked out of the band for his drinking. Back in the 80s a lot of the fans were like two warring factions, they acted like you could only like one band or the other. It turned out to be a great thing because we got two of the greatest metal bands ever out of it.
Absolutely love watching reaction videos when there's cross genre appreciation happening. Music is not a color, but a feeling. When you can appreciate ALL music genres and apply that same appreciation to people....color becomes non existent. Simply put...just respect for the person and what they do gets the same respect in return. Ya'll have definitely become one of my favorite channels to watch.
