MONUMENTS Feat. Mick Gordon | Lavos | Metal Musician Reaction 

I LOVE YOU!! Thank you fam 💚

Nik’s new show: “Where in the world is Mick Gordon?”

Comparing Andy’s Makari vocals to Monuments is so dope. He’s talented for sure and both are great bands.

I feel like people forget that Mick is a producer as well... like you can hear his production once you listen. Not sure that warrants a "feat" label, likely an attention thing. That worked for me lol

Nik in every video: If banger is spotted *Turns into Rap God*

I reckon Daddy Mick Gordon was playing the guitar, the end groove had his signature all over it, very DOOM like! Overall the song is pretty fucking dope, Andy vocals on point!

I love your termina project with Andy, but what he's doing with monuments is just magic.

Gosh that riff at 2:11 is CONTAGIOUS AF. Brilliant track, beautiful reaction. Keep ot up!!!

Nik being the cutest/stoked AF bro 2:53 🤣🤘 As for the 6 string comment, Browne has said that he hates 8's so I think 7 or less is the way for Monuments for now, which let's be honest is more than enough for him to tear it up haha. All these guys tuning to F# Drop E or whatever these days & Monuments here like "We can still make Db sound heavy/huge" 😁

I waited the whole song for Mick to take control for a few bars but it didn't happen. Kinda disappointed by that but nonetheless it's a banger.

It was tough to hear Mick's influence or to what level. I figure it was probably that breakdown but still. Andy and the guys fucking killed it as always, including Mick. Just wish I heard more of him.

We must protect Andy at all cost

Dude the variety in the vocals, with the beautiful singing mixed with multiple different scream types, oh my god it’s amazing. And that GUITAR

This just sounds like it will sound cool, and does

Always loved Andy's vocals this song is great!

Saw a longer interview/chat with Mick, John and Mike and the guitars are all John while Mick is doing synth and orchestration

“Bass I’m sure existed” 😂 Always funny to see what you’re gonna say for bass, this one was it 🤣

One of my favorite songs of the year so far, man I can’t wait for the album. Andy is a perfect fit for Monuments.

Incredible tune!

Mick Gordon is a composer........ so he must have, you know........ composed something.

the theatrical presence especially from the guitar and the grooves man, this song is fuckin fire.

My Favourite Monuments song is Deadnest, had that one on repeat for days! Cant get enough of Andy's vocals.

We need new As I Lay Dying!! :)

Be my daaaad, mick gordooonnn!!! -Jared Dines, 2020

you know it’s good when you see mick gordon in the title

Soo The Doomslayer/ Doomguy kills demons to a Momuntes soundtrack in his helmet? Who knew 😀😎 dammm

Daamn,awesome song

dat 2014 album had such an impact on me, just wow! Met them once in Cologne, super close, super nice, amazing show!

It sounds kinda like old school early 00s metalcore but with a modern twist and im really glad that sound is making a comeback.

Featuring MICK GORDON?? I'm very excited to listen to this

Damnn this is sick!!

God damn Andy is so freakin' good! All he does is gold in my ears

Andy is absolutely perfect for Monuments, and well, perfect for any occasion. Especially, when you want to play a new song for your Grandparents to fall asleep to.

You said this sounds a six string, I’m pretty sure it’s in DADGAD or a drop of it. Sounds a lot like Animus. It brings the heatttt

Bro I just found out you are in breather Holy shit I love them so fucking much and knowing you are in it is so much better!!!!

GUYS! It says on spotify this is the singles version. so I'm sure Mick Gordon will have like an intro and/or an outro to handle somes bars on his own. Single is banger tho 10/10.

I was expecting a doomy bridge and a heavier doomy buildup going to an extra doomy satanic demonic breakdown with a monument's poly twist. An octave down!!

ANYTHING with Andy on it is MONEY! 💪💪💪 TOO STRONG

2:41: *Nik grove dances* Me: wait don't grove dance without me! Lol

I’m calling my lawyer, this much groove can’t be legal

Omg what a banger! Loved it ! 🤘🏻 Andy's voice and energy in this song... Always precious tbh, hehe ! 💯 🔥🙌🏻 Love it !🖤 X

Some of the guitar riffs sounded like lower tuned 8 string maybe in the breakdown? I think that was mick

Banger !!

If you go and watch the URM video for this song, you can see he did quite a bit for this song that you just can't really hear that well. I love the song, I think it's great, I just don't think they utilized Mick's work to the fullest extent that they could've. But that's just me

Nik you should get on Herman Li's twitch stream. Would love to see you guys play some guitar together

I live for when he plugs his merch

i love you nik😩

I wish two things: 1. That I could play all these instruments as good as monuments and 2. That I could write songs as good as these

Banger

Is this song inspired by a SNES game? Lavos is the ultimate evil in Chronotrigger, one of the best RPG's ever. I like it!

2:00 omg 🔥🔥🔥

I bet they play Chrono trigger in SNES

Hey Nik! New Memphis May Fire!!

I’m watching this and the upload time says “21 seconds ago” nice

So much yes

🔥🔥🔥🔥

Tdwp! Tdwp! Tdwp! We need your reaction on it!

This sht goes so hard!! Andy is top tier vocalist!!!

Nissssssssssssssssssce 🍻 Monuments can do no wrong!

Nice! Limp Bizkit new track "Dad Vibes" is out if you looking for new songs to react to lol

ARCHSPIRE - "Drone Corpse Aviator"?

This has strong 2012 Architects vibes. I dig it.

have to say one of the best things about Niks reaction videos is the short intros, not the 2 min intros that some channels have

This song sounded like TERMINA on crack. Good job andy!

Nik you gotta check out this Russian metal core/electronic band called main de gloire. I feel like you’d like them a lot. They just released a new album called this is reality you should check it out and also check out their songs labyrinth and coven I think you’d be pleasantly surprised

I love Andy,this track kick ass.

I think I’m seeing things…

Ngl this is my song of the year.

It would be nice to see a old school poison the well, hopesfall, from autumn to ashes

I love your Ghostface shirt

Check out the new shadow of intent!

"Bass I'm sure existed" *Every bassist didn't like that*

Wage war-death roll. it smashes

Am I reading this caption right??? Mick Gordon??? Holy shit !!

FUCKING HELL THAT'S AWESOME Hi NikNoc

Relapse by Wage War. You're not ready for the breakdown

Guitars giving me Daybreaker era Architects vibes

FRONTIERER PLEASE

Missed Mick's demon touch in this song :/

Love the airsoft sniper that he’s using

I’m late but if we are speaking *heavy*, then the new OM&M song would do very well being reacted to

Pls react to BMTH Mood cover 😍

Hey you should do a “Glam Metal Scene” video

I think Mick Gordon actually did the mixing for this track.

New IMMENENCE track drops tomorrow too!

Wage War - Death Roll!!!!!!!!!!!

Yea kinda dissapointed that there was no some Gordon riff,but overall track is solid.

I've said this on other videos, but, the first Monuments + Andy recording had nasaly cleans which really made me worried they were going to sound like a band from 2007 but that hasn't been the case thank christ, Andy might have been nervous and distracted during that recording, might have grown as a vocalist since or might have been guided by the monuments crew. Who cares, they're all epic. I miss Chris, I miss Matt but Andy is far more consistent and has the chops to fill in the shoes. We got Mike back (absolutely necessary for monuments) let's hope Olly didn't leave too big of a whole. I fucking love this band if you can't tell, I don't want to seem like a total critical asshole, I just know what they've done and hope the changes don't hinder the potential

Bass I'm sure existed 💀💀

Hi Nik🤙

If you do a collab with somebody who has such a distinctive style the fans should at least be able to tell in some way. It doesn't necessarily have to jump in your face but as Nik said: if there wasn't the "feat. Mick Gordon" in the title nobody would have known. Imho Monuments has gotten less interesting with every release. I didn't expect them to play in the same style for forever, that would be stupid. But they do sound very generic these days. Just my opinions of course

Cleans remind me of I Am Abomination

I guess Mick did orchestral stuff.

Mick??? 👀👀👀

REACT TO THE NEW WBTBWB ALBUM, PLEASE !

Chrono Trigger reference ?

what did mick do?

Sir SIR. Go check out wage war's new album especially the new video for it called Manic.

João???? 👀

Those exist in 2021.... yeah.. too broke to get my first 8
