Death - Flesh and the Power It Holds (Reaction) 

Death keeps me alive. I became totally obsessed with this band and it helped me a ton to deal with depression and suicidal thoughts. I owe my life to Death,

The sound of perseverance is one of the greatest metal albums ever made..!!! Definitely check voice of the soul and spirit crusher..!!! Perfection

Very same album - you have to react to: - “Voice of the Soul”, a beautiful instrumental piece; - “Spirit Crusher”, energetic and extremely technical song; and - “Painkiller”, covering the Judas Priest’s masterpiece and making it ever better lol!

The drumming on Symbolic is superb, Gene nailed some crazy riffs

What a beautiful song, this may have helped this band grow on me. Nice and heavy riffs and great vocals.

This channel is such a gem

prepare to get totally flashed like youve never been flashed in your entire life, this band was crazy melodic thrashy deadly heavy, love it still 20 years later

Death - Voice of the Soul is the best song ever recorded

Death - Trapped a corner

If you're a musician listening to this for the first time, the only possible reaction is to be blown away and left speechless in awe for Chuck's genius.

Look at the man's smile, he's enjoying this beautiful track.

Death is an insane band. Loved the reaction.

Death - A moment of Clarity

Death is forever thanks chuck

Love your sophisticated, laid back style of listening and reviewing

Death Voice of the Soul, probably the saddest song i’ve heard, even though it is an instrumental You will love it, Jim!

Great music and a great man, his music will echo for an eternity.

"Surprisingly neautiful music" You describe exactly what this jazz influenced album is. Good reaction. Greetings from Medellín-Colombia👆👍

RIP Chuck Schuldiner

Thanks for reacting to this! Death is one of my favorite bands!

Happy to see you react to Death! Great stuff. Saw the mentioned Gene Hoglan relatively recently with Testament, and he's an insane drummer obviously. Crossing my fingers for a video with Enslaved - Sacred Horse! Cheers.

Hands down my favorite band.

Нам всем любителям творчества Чака до конца дней своих суждено наслаждаться этими несколькими альбомами любимой группы. Не будет больше такого. Будут похожие, будут неплохие и отличные будут, но они не будут как Death, его не перепутать ни с кем

I love seeing new people discover Death. This album was an absolute masterpiece from start to finish.

Forever loved and missed.

being an old fart, I am blessed to have seen Death on many tours through Germany and had the honour of meeting Chuck on several occassions. R.I.P Chuck and Scott

You could also try Chuck's other project, Control Denied - Expect the Unexpected.

Put the beggining in loop over and over again... awsome drums

Richard christy! F n awesome!

Flippin' great song. Took me a few of their tracks to get used to his vocals, as I prefer bassier growls, but now I love it. P.s. For something completely different try Trilok Gurtu - Cherry Town.....😘

Chucks Voice was a Mirror of „The Pain“ on this Earth! And the Lyrics transport the Massage of that Pain…we all have.

Excelente amigo, saludos desde Chile!

Hey Jim! Thanks for the video! Great band, great album. The whole thing is like this track... basically you can listen to it over and over again without any risk of being bored. Have a nice bank holiday! \m/

Death - Lack of Comprehension

Great to see you finding out about Death, one of the pioneers of death metal and especially progressive/technical death metal.

Saludos desde Venezuela sin duda Death es la mejor banda de este género

Death and Coroner two of the best prog technical death metal 🤘 I ever heard in my life , hope a new album from Coroner in 2022, take care Jim best wishes my friend

Chuck was a music genius!

Richard Christy is now on the Howard Stern show, he doesnt play much drums anymore which is a shame but theres a clip of Howard telling him to play the drums and he melts everyones faces in the room some of which didnt know he even played drums.

My favourite albums...Death forever

Woah.. What happened, your new setup is amazing! Now your videos will be even more enjoyable!

PS: "Possessed" coined the term Death Metal, but Death had the first album that can be agreed upon _was_ Death Metal.

Chucks vocal talents should never be looked past. His Vocals are amazing imo. You can't train that $hit. You are born with it.

Your voice is quite pleasant.

Please react to Lack of comprehension by death

Great reaction! I enjoyed the way you reacted to this song and am glad that you enjoyed it. Because you genuinely seemed to like it. 😊

the solos of chuck were the best solos of all american death metal.. with a huge difference.. the other bands were about doing super fast atonal solos... this guy really made the guitar "scream"....solos that give you goosebumps.. those are the best.

That's the only album where Chuck sounded like that vocally. He had a much lower sounding scream in their previous albums. Gotta check out their track "Symbolic" at some point. Probably my favorite of theirs overall and it kicks off their best album IMHO.

Satyricon - Phoenix (Official Music Video)

First death album I ever heard and still my favourite

A band called DEATH that make music about LIFE..

Thank you for being so gracious and openminded, you have given this band a due credit. If you find Chuck's vocals interesting - he evolved from deep, almost growling sound, slowly refining into this vocal pattern. On his another album LEPROSY, he ads something else to his vocals and it sounds amazing, worth a listen. Would recommend HUMAN, SOUND OF PERSEVERANCE, LEPROSY and INDIVIDUAL THOUGHT PATTERNS albums to give it a listen.

Can't recommend Human and Symbolic enough.

Rip chuck

Hello Jim, Great band! Hope all is well my friend 👊🏽

Death is amazing, glad you liked it. I would like to know if the album The Gallery from Dark Tranquillity is good piece of music for your standards!

Great video! I suggest you listen to "Without Judgement" by Death, it's one of Death's best songs in my opinion, and one you instantly get hooked on. Oh, and by the way, I'm still waiting for you to listen to "Bottom" by Tool. ;) Cheers!

Death - Voice of the Soul (Instrumental)

This reminds me of when I first heard death

Death's out of this world!

Your accent is nice :D Are you from Britain? 🤔

BEHOLD THE FLESH AND THE POWER IT HOLDSSSSSS

I have just been getting into the band Obituary. They absolutely deliver. Similar vocal style but deeper.

Death - Zombie ritual Death - Evil dead Death - Voice Of the Soul Please

DEATH is one of those bands you either Love or Hate. Personally, I love them. But I didn't always. I got into DEATH in 1990 as a Junior in HS when they released their 3rd album "Spiritual Healing." (Still one of their top albums. Probably Top 3 out of the 8 total.) But yeah, when DEATH debuted in 1987 with "Scream Bloody Gore" it was one of, if not the first Death Metal albums ever. And a Technical Death Metal band at that too. So getting used to these style of vocals and weird progressive style riffings was kinda difficult at first, as the only other heavy style of music was Thrash and the first wave of Black Metal (like Mercyful Fate and King Diamond). But like a good 80s Metalhead, I continued collecting their discography throughout the 90s...on cassette, until it came to the 1999's "Sound of Perseverance" here, because it didn't release on cassette. Only on CD. And it wasn't until about 2008 or so that I finally re-bought the entire catalog on CD with their 2008 remasters. However, it was a waste of money at the time. Because 3 years late, in 2011, the band's Estate run by Chuck's widow moved all of their Music Rights over to Relapse Records, and proper 2-disc re-remasters were done, starting with this album, and working backwards. And by 2014, they finally got out "Scream Bloody Gore" and then all was good with the world. So you may ask, is there that much difference between the 2008 [Century Media] remasters and the 2011-2014 Relapse Records remasters? And the answer is YES. The 2008 remasters really didn't sound all that much different than the original pressings, but perhaps cleaned up a little bit, but the Relapse Records remasters are not only cleaned up, but any muddiness is gone, the sound is crisper, and also does not suffer from any of the Loudness War shenanigans that plagued the 2008 remasters. Plus the fact that each album got 2 CDs is another bonus. They varied from being full of Live Tracks to Instrumental and rare unleashed Demo tracks. Relapse did the DEATH Catalog good. But it was weird waiting 3 years to collect the entire 8 record run though. I think Spiritual Healing was released in 2013, so it took a while. Oh, but here's the funny part...their 1995 album, "Symbolic" was released on Roadrunner Records, and that label never gave up the rights to that album. But they did release their own 2-disc set in 2008 as well, and it's actually pretty good. Mixing isn't quite the same as the Relapse remasters, but it's close and still easy to listen to. But with all that jibber jabber aside, DEATH's music still stands the test of time to this day even though the band disbanded after Chuck's death in 2001 from brain cancer. It's ashamd too, because the band could have been putting out kick ass albums till this day. They put out 8 albums over the course of 12 years, imagine where they'd be now hadn't their front man died? They'd probably have around 20 albums out by now.

The drumming on the last 4 Death albums is insane and Chuck was a god. I do like there first 3 albums especially there 3rd Spiritual Healing and the song Within The Mind off that album but the first time I heard of them it was there song Lack Of Comprehension and it was just better then any Death Metal song ever and its not even close. They never made a bad song and everyone is below them. Death is the Black Sabbath of Death Metal Flattening Of Emotions, Overactive Imagination, Story To Tell, Voice Of Soul or any song off Symbolic I would recommend of theres.

More Death. More Death now. To forgive is to suffer.

And to believe this is Richard Christy from the Howard Stern shows drumming on this..

As for technical/prog death metal people should listen Alchemist! Alchemist - Tide In, Mind Out (for example)

Hi, Jim! Nice to see you. About mics. The new mic gives pretty good sound, but it also captures the room echo. I'd prefer recording with the old mic and mixing it to the video. But the room echo isn't that bad, if one doesn't have a "golden ears"... ;o) This song was in many ways very good. Really tight playing as a band. The singer did put me off a bit. This would have blown my socks off, if I'd heard this 35 years ago!

Hey Jim...give Sober(live version) from Tool ‘93 from PinkPop I believe(not sure) from Pennsylvania a go when you can. Really enjoy your channel brother. Congrats on the new member of your family as well. You’ll get a kick out of Mallard(ha) performance.

"fuck yeah" fuck yeah

Lay down your soul to the gods Rick and roll

Stoked that you are reacting to Death - credit to the persistent person who wore you down! I think I know the documentary you are talking about, but what was it called?

If persistence is the key, TOOL: flood

Please, react to voice of the soul, is a masterpiece

I 'd forgotten how muh I love this song. Damn!!! Listen to "Voice of the Soul" if you think this one is beautiful...one of the best instrumental songs ever done. The whole record is great! And I mean as usual my request is Opeth - "Burden". When I first heard them I was mesmerized and pissed because they name the band "Death" and I was always like "stupid name....stupid music...I'm not even gonna waste my time"...I couldn't be more wrong.

Classic

Lucky men😌

Haha i was like: A Band called Death thats really important to Metal History? What would that probably sound like..turns out it sounds exactly like i expected it to sound like xD

Minus za porównanie do Metalica. Kropka

For me every recorded DEATH Album is great and all my fav. Metal Albums. DEATH is the only Band u can give all Albums in a playlist hear them and u press Shuffle and not one u skip. After i find DEATH in the early 90's and i stop search bands. Chuck was such a genius so sad he must go so early. Control Denied was not so mine but i hear them becauce the genius Chuck maked em. Sorry for my english is not my native language. In Chuck words "Let the Metal flow".

Bass was Steve Di Digiorio. One of the best

You have to do more Death ! Spirit Crusher !

Gene Hoglan is the drummer who is in the most bands at the same time:)...

scavenger of human sorrow

CRYPTOPSY - GRAVES OF THE FATHERS LIVE TORONTO 2004

Igorrr - ieuD almost a classic for reactors and for a good reason

Leave no cross unturned by darkthrone

"that's a very metallica sounding sound" Saying that is illegal .

check out "VOICE OF THE SOUL"... Instrumental.. Chuck was a visionary and an incredible human being. A master musician and a great writer of music and lyrics.

try bolt thrower, especially the 4th crusade album

Tampa Bay Metal

You would also like Symbolic in that case.

🤘🏽

Please check out Voice of the Soul and Spirit Crusher as well.

death r awesome . chuck is an amazing guitarist. that album is more technical but its ace. check out "voice of the soul" its an instrumental with acoustics in it...but anyways yeah death (chuck rulesss) RIP chuck.

Please check out the will to give by woods of ypres

Death is great. From prog-death, you should listen to Atheist band from one hand and to Extol ("A Gift beyond Human Reach" song, for example) from the other. For ideological balance :)

Suscribed for giving some respect Chuck.. Taken too soon! Brain Cancer take the best brains.
