Skillet - The Resistance REACTION & REVIEW! FIRST TIME HEARING! 

Their concerts have amazing energy. Especially when when John busts out his fog cannons strapped to his wrists. Or in between songs when they let Jen go nuts on the drums. And then she buckles up, the drums get lifted and tilts 90 degrees and starts spinning while she’s going nuts

Saw them in San Antonio in 2019 and the venue was right next to train tracks. I know it wasn't planned, however they were singing this song and when the chorus was going Heavy as a hurricane, Louder than a freight train. A freight train drove right next to the concert and it made it burst with more energy. Psyching myself up to see them Oct. 1st.

One of Skillet's best songs is called Rebirthing it's on their 2006 album Comatose Korey sings with John on it

I rarely find reactions like yours, you really understand the song from all perspectives 👍🏼

Just found your channel. I love how you break this down. No one else I have seen doing reactions actually knows what they’re talking about like you. Kudos.

I saw Skillet in concert a few years ago. They blew the roof off the venue

I love this video so much it shows the energy during one of their shows

You nailed the reaction man, I love this song and didn't even think about the bridge that much until you mentioned it about being Poppy, but your right, and they could have kept that driving instead of making it a pop sound and the bass is missing in the mix overall which is a shame! As always a great reaction! Have an amazing day, Dave!!

I've seen Skillet live about 6 times and after this song came out they did perform it as their closer. They did change the arrangement a little bit but kept the ending the same.

Your reviews on skillet are solid lol I love n hate skillet at times but when I want to rock to God up play Skillet on max 😎👍

Bro I watched two of your vids and I can see your a big rock and roll or heavy metal fan and I think you know a lot about music you need more Likes and views keep up the good work

Yooooo, this was am amazing reaction👌🏾 I honestly though you wouldnt like it as much as u did, so im surpised there lol But this song is played for encore, and the endimg is amaizmg to watch live Btw if you didnt know, korey does all the production work for them, and they rarely have an outside prodcution crew

Alex Hefner, the Fable Shere, and David Heretic Skillet reactions are the best!!!

Go back and watch Monster...it's a great video to accompany the song. Nice skillet reactions!!!

The few concerts I’ve seen, this song they started a 3 song encore with it.... they’ve done it in the middle of set... but most of their live songs, they’ll do alternate intros to a few songs as well as outros... they are very unpredictable live... they will The Resistance but live they’ll do it in Drop A

If you get a chance, check out "Out of Hell".... You don't have to do a reaction to it, that doesn't matter. The song is flarking FIRE.... Rock on, man!

Its official! You're one of the Panheads.( Skillet 🍳 fans. )

A solid song overall. When I first heard this song I wasn't a fan of the instrumental at the end (I'd never heard a song that did that before and so to me it felt forced) but over time it's grown on me.

Oh My God The Resistance has GROWN on me. Hello David, this is my review of The motherflippin’ Resistance. Vocally, the song is probably my 2nd or 3rd favorite. Jen is an incredible addition, I dig the combination of her in John throughout the chorus, and I love her little snippets in Verse one. However, if she was in the song more, this would have gotten a higher score. John, honestly, once again, stole the show. He is hitting so many high points. His voice in the verses is so intriguing and keeps you into the song. His “this is how we rise up, it’s our resistance. YOU CANT RESIST US!” is the best vocal point of the whole song. Instrumentally, HOLY GOD. The opening, like you mentioned, is so powerful. The metal strings sound phenomenal, and in the chorus it sounds so freaking OTHERWORLDLY. IT SOUNDS GODLY AS ALL HELL, and pairs with the vocals pitch perfectly. However, the drums sold. The drums, oh my god, Jen is rocking it out. My favorite part was at 9:25, played amazingly. And about the ending solo……… 10/10 solo. The riff of the solo is 22 1st quadrillion times better than the song. It’s so upbeat, and moments like 11:21 and 11:24 are what made this stand out. That ending- no like- the ending to the ending. I’m talking about 11:53 - 11:56. That was the most memorable 3 seconds of my life. And remember when I said that 9:25 was my favorite moment? I lied. Those little sections where they went off the riff and did something different, that was my favorite moment. So yeah, The Resistance. Final score? 9.1/10. Edit=9.3/10.

since you liked this song I think you would also like Back To Life. Similar feel, also a great show closer. It's also the last song on the album it was on (Victorious) just like The Resistance was (Unleashed).

John and Jen sound soo good together

Did you know that this would be one of Skillet’s shortest songs without that ending? Hell, the shortest song on Unleashed without the end. Crazy.

you definitely need to listen to Rebirthing off the Comatose album!

I’m pretty sure Seth Morrison uses a PRS Tremonti. That would explain why the guitar tone is so RICH ;)

Trust me Jen has pipes live

They play this song as there encore

Great video! I would like to see your reaction to Kabát-Banditi Di Praga or Burlaci. It's a rock band from the Czech republic and they have great songs. I would say, that is the most popular band in Czech and Slovakia. And they have won several prices in Czech republic. But the texts are czech so you won't understand it but still i would like to see your review on them.

This popped up on my "recommended", which to sure, I'm really not that much of a fan of Skillet, but I understand the appeal. Or more to the point, as good as Skillet is in their respective genre, Red, I think is better-- certainly more, er, challenging musically. If you like switching up the feel of a song, there;s no one better right now than the band Red. But man does Skillet put on quite the live show.

Great video, i dont know if you have heard of Halestorm, great band you may like. Dont want to spoil anything so i wont say more

Please listen to ‘Courtesy Call’ by Thousand Foot Krutch!!!!!!

Its Hylton like Paris Hilton its fine good reaction though 😄👍

Harrumph!

Hi :)

An 8.7 for me is LOW for the Resistance, but you do you David!

A very nice reaction, you already react to ( Mess of me ) by " Citizen Soldier ", and I think you'd liked this. So I have another recommendation : ( Forever Damned ) by them 🔥. This song is soo great please check out this song. 🙏👍

Skillet is a great Christian band all the songs they do are FIRE!!

Not my cup of tea but I can appreciate talent. I like how women are much more essential rather than an add on.

skillet falling inside the black?
