You're my favorite react channel, man. You know how to really absorb the music and listen to it like you're trying to make it a part of you. Much respect.
John Jackson also so awesome how this guy rewinds a little whenever he reacts to a particularly great part so as not to interrupt the flow of the song. Not everyone does that.
I’m 43 yrs old and have been to A LOT of concerts and still to date when I saw Pantera at the Roxy Theater ( small club ) in Atlanta GA back on Friday November 22nd 1991 on Cowboys from Hell tour before they were famous was the best show ever ! I’ve never been a mosh pit guy but damn I was that night, I had a white shirt on and I remember having blood stains all over it after concert. Was because everybody had carpet burns on knees and elbows from mosh pit.
This song is so beautiful, gosh. Great choice, great reaction. Subbed. Pantera is legendary, this was one of the first songs I listened to by them. I ADORE Dimebag. 🤘🏻 This song really shows off Phil's vocal range and power.
This makes me wish I could hear this for the first time again. . There are more technical players ..faster players ..ect ...but NO ONE could make me feel music like Dime . Truly one of the coolest most down to earth genuine dudes as well.
I have watched so many of your reaction videos with metal music and am LOVING it. It gives me, as a metal fan, fresh perspective on songs I’ve heard hundreds of times. Thank you for that!!!
R.I.P. DIMEBAG DARRELL!!! MAD RESPECT King KTF for doing Pantera thus is my absolute favorite band of all time. And DIMEBAG is a huge inspiration to me, he is the whole reason I ever picked up a guitar. Anyways awesome vids man I like your reaction vids cause their genuine and honest. Keep em coming brother and would love to see some more Pantera
I love a person who feels the music. Dimebag was one of the best. Vinnie was one of the best in metal. R.I.P Abbott brothers. You should listen to This Love or Hollow. Peace.
Omg remember when it showed the cameraman and he was all fumbling with his camera to try and take pictures like wtf! That breakdown almost makes my spirit jump out of my body! And the fists pumping in the crowd!
I've only found your channel recently, been binging on your Eminem videos after seeing him last week. Keep it up man! Glad you enjoyed this song, Pantera are really one of the greats.
hipeanut a lot of people don't realize that Pantera has a lot of grooves, and Phil practically raps on a lot of the songs. This is why hip hop heads are picking up on Pantera, because guys who listened to both are picking out the right songs for them. Sadly, too many fans are suggesting thrash and other styles that are pointless and selfish suggestions to bridge the gap, and it simply won't work. I keep telling metal heads to listen to groups like Eric B and Rakim, Onyx, and Wu-tang if they want gritty, grimy and aggresive rapping, but people keep suggesting songs that turn people off. My metal head friends end up digging Rakim and groups like Wu-Tang. They seem to also like Redman, and even KRS-ONE
I don't prefer reaction videos too much, but your vid and the reaction was extraordinary. The fact that you put a Godlike song and understood its flavors was real to me.
There are no barriers if people like you didn’t talk about them. You saying that is making any “conditioned barriers” worse if there were any, and spawning them in when they didn’t exist before. You are the one causing them
I love watching people discover music I've listened to for years. It makes me think back to when *I* heard these songs for the first time and gets me excited to hear them again ❤
Bruuhhh. It's hard to describe the feeling I get when watching it click with you and other reviewers. You are by far the most entertaining because you get it. And you like it. It's like watching a baby's first steps. I do believe that you too will be metal head. Rock on, man. I'm glad you're getting into metal. For more Pantera, check out A New Level. May I also suggest PIRATE METAL: Shipwrecked by Alestorm.
Dude!, I love when you pause to " bring it back", I laugh everytime because I LOVE THAT YOU GET IT!!, Pantera is my fav metal band, I met Dimebag twice the year he was killed. Thank you for appreciating. I can't get shit done at home cuz I'm glued to your reaction videos, You're the shit Preston and easy on the eyes to boot. God Bless you.
This was my late brother's favorite song. We used to listen to music together, and break it down. It always gives me fond memories when I listen to it.
Those end notes where Phils screaming " Gates" and Dimes harmonics to match them, Chills every fucking time. Especially on that last harmonic that ends the song, you actually feel it. Goddamn.
"Cemetery Gates" is like a movie you can watch a million times. Like anytime you're flipping through the channels and it's on, you stop and watch it. You know all the lines, you know everything that is coming, but you still watch it and it still gets you.
Dimebag Darell, Dave Mustaine and Chuck Schuldiner are 3 of the greatest all-round guitarists and song-writers in the world of metal. The gods and forefathers of 3 different styles of metal, and 2 of them are no longer with us. Pantera put the 'H' in HEAVY METAL. You GOTTA check out 'Good Mourning Black Friday' by Megadeth, has an intro with a similar style to Cemetary Gates with some of the most soulful solos you will ever listen to. The only difference is it transitions into something you would NEVER picture the song to head towards at the beginning.
+2682shark *Marty is a better guitarist than Dave* ----> Solos ? OF COURSE. Rhythms ? Not at all. And Marty has never written an entire album of masterpieces all by himself. I was talking about *ALL ROUND GUITARISTS AND SONG-WRITERS* a.k.a people who are phenomenal at all aspects of both departments. *James is a better song writer than Dave* ----> I would like you to come back after James writes an entire masterpiece of an album all by himself. James hardly ever writes an entire song all by himself, much less a whole album from start to finish like Dave does. Dave writes WAY more material to Megadeth than James ever did for Tallica. Also, you again missed *ALL ROUND GUITARISTS AND SONG-WRITERS* . Dave is a better guitarist overall than James, that should be as obvious as 1 + 1 = 2.
+Mantra Robinson James is a great riff-writer, but Dave is just better than him IMO in everything ( song-writing, general musicianship and guitar playing of course ) except for vocals. James has hardly ever written an entire song without help from Lars. Even Cliff used to write a lot of epic riffs for Metallica back then.
Sainandan Ramakrishnan James is just writes better songs than Dave.. sorry.. sure Dave may be better technically but imo James writes better riffs and songs... obviously not solos
I could literally see the emotions on your face as the song played, it is a very touching song that hits you deep in your soul and that's what it was meant to be and it does just that. I'm glad you had such a good reaction to such a wonderful song and fantastic band that sad to say is no more because they broke up and also because both the guitarist and drummer are dead now and they were brothers. Thank you for submitting this video.🤘
Cheers from Texas brutha! I’ve following you for a bit and as a fellow guitar player I’m very happy to see someone else realize and relish the sheer artistry and mastery that these guys display. Tapping the soul as you’ve stated is soo true. Keep up the great reactions and colorful commentary. I’ll be sending requests soon. Cheers!!
R.I.P DIME, and I felt that was a genuine reaction.Its good to see hip hop heads broadening their mind with different genres of music and culture.I love rap and some songs move me but I can be moved by all genres of music if the artist has talent.
Hey man, I got CFH inked on my neck back in the Pantera heyday. It's so nice to see someone with an open mind really focusing on their music like this. Really warms my heart. Just goes to show what Pantera did in the 90s will remain etched in stone and timeless.
Love from Florida, I watch you everyday man. Thanks for taking time out of your life to make entertainment for me. I just want to thank you man. Listening to you while I clean my apartment.
I'm hoping you keep reacting to heavy metal songs man. You're really fun to watch in your reactions. It's like you're discovering a whole different life to music, which is what music is supposed to be. The man who wrote the guitar in this song and played this LEGENDARY guitar solo is named Dimebag Darrell and he sadly was murdered during a live performance by a crazed fan. It's crazy. Keep doing you though man!
I started listening PANTERA 25 years ago I was 16. I saw them as my first concert at Québec city couple years later during their Mouth for war tour. I was in love with their beat without understanding the lyrics cause I didnt speak english at that time. The day I begin to understand the language was like a rebirth for me. I was amazed by the deepest of the lyrics realizing that metal was not only agressive music but also emotional, philosopal, political and intellectual. Its really entertaining to see you react to all those band I love. Thank you for sharing your experience.
Honestly dont know how I got to your channel but I love watching these songs with you almost a concert like experience where were both experiencing the song as a group
Lamb of God Omerta from the Killedelphia live album. Or Overloard from Sturm Und Drang. Omerta is just a kick your ass metal track and Overlord is similar to Cemetary Gates. Starts slow with clean vocals then it melts you're face. Great video man thanx
don't apologize for rewinding the song and watching it 30 times, that is why we are here! Your reaction! Not the song (most of us know these by heart). If your reaction is that you want to hear it 30 times, do it! We love it
I second your opinion Robert. DD is the greatest metal lead guitarist of all-time. There is a lot of good ones but Dime sets the standard with heavy and fast. Pure genius.
My reaction to Pantera back in 90 while in Jr.. High was a reaction of the 80's hair band style phasing out and listening for anything that would fill a void and BOOM a small band from my home state of Texas hits the scene and from then ...... no looking back. I love the sound more today than back then. Like a well aged wine...... just gets better. Thank you for your openness to review and react so positively to it. This music shaped who I am as a musician !
saw pantera back in 1996 in western australia, such an awesome concert, the band really has fun onstage and interacts with the crowd, and of course a brutal mosh pit
I find myself appreciating so much how much you appreciate it. Keep exploring what I grew up with it was awesome. Being a low middle class kid expected to succeed in life, hard work was a must, so this music was a release valve to get out the stresses of the grind. And it worked
Alright, I am subbed now. Your reactions are joyous to watch, discovering new music. Pantera is amazing. I had the pleasure of seeing them in concert multiple times, it's a whole body experience. Keep checking out their catalogue
One of my all-time favorite songs bro! R.I.P Debag and Vinnie Paul... To Live is to Die by Metallica!! I'm gonna stay persistent on this one you gotta check it out
Yes. This was the song that turned me on to Pantera years and years ago. The guitar riff is so badass. This song personifies Pantera’s sound. Badass nasty Texas metal 🤘🏼.
