Skindred - Nobody (REACTION!!!) (REGGAE METAL) 

One of the best songs in Need for Speed Underground.

As a Skindred fan, Nobody was their first single. The rest of the Babylon album gets so much stronger but Nobody was their anouncement to the world. Something to make people stand up and listen! Check out Pressure! That's an amazing song. They've now had 7 studio albums and they are definitely going from strength to strength while growing as a band.

This song still kicks ass in 2024.

Saw skindred in early 2000-2002 time frame. Friends band was playing a small small venue in st louis mo, never heard of skindred. Some big black dreaded guy was just killing it the whole show in the mosh pit, then suddenly between sets jumps up on stage and is the lead singer for skindred. Dude was awesome. Great energy show.

It's 1998 as you said. Do not forget the impact of Korn and naturally nu-metal vibes over this song.

"Pressure" by Skindred is a banger! Super catchy and much more accessible than "Nobody".

Personally I think "Ratrace" is a much better constructed song. Highly recommend it!

Skindred is amazing, the second and third albums are much better, and they are 10x better live, I've seen them 5 times, and they kill it Everytime.

HOLY NOSTALGIA!!!! Haven't thought about this band in a LONG time.

This song was amazing in Need for Speed Underground 2

Song that introduced me to Skindred was Rat Race. Worth listening to that one. Also Stand for Something. They also do a great cover of Eddy Grant's Electric Avenue.

Seen Skindred a few times live. Crazy energy!

Daaammmn it's been a few years since I listened to Skindred. I'm excited for this reaction

If you want to hear heavy punk reggae mashup type music you need to search out The Bad Brains. Discography: Bad Brains (1982) Rock for Light (1983) I Against I (1986) Quickness (1989) Rise (1993) God of Love (1995) I & I Survived (2002) Build a Nation (2007) Into the Future (2012)

Fire From the Gods - Excuse Me Metalcore mixed with blends of hiphop, reggae and djent

Maximum the hormone is a band I wanna see you guys react to

I had hoped you'd do Kill the Power as a first listen by them. In my opinion it's their best "first song" to listen to, almost perfect fusion between genres into one song.

Definitely check out "roots rock riot" And "kill the power" from skindred

I know I've seen this live. The energy was RIDICULOUS

"Ninja" is probably my favourite song from them. "Wildfire" with crossfaith is a great track too

This is one of skindred more hard songs and a difficult first one. I'd recommend kill the power, ninja, or that's my jam. They have a party energy and a big discography

"Pressure" might have been a better jumping off point. Maybe even "Cut Dem"

Subscribed simply because you chose to review Skindred. Watching the whole damn back catalog now.

Saw them live at a festival with my daughter (her very first) and when they came on it was afternoon with low energy. They started playing and it was like an outside club. Everyone was dancing every kinda way and it was the first time she let loose and started dancing and doing more than just watching what was happening. They were great and though she never heard of them before then it was her favorite band of the day.

Skindred is by far one of the best live bands I’ve seen. Honestly though nobody is not the best song to start with. Rat race and selector are my favourites! Awesome to hear your honest opinions. Love your channel!

NFS 2: UNDERGROUND! 🤘🏽

Alter Bridge - Works Darker Than Their Wings Live from Royal Albert Hall Best live performance out thrre

They are truly amazing live. I saw them as an opener. Had no idea who they were. After the show I immediately went to the merch table and bought their album.

I think Pressure would've been a better introduction to Skindred. Give it a go.

Skindred are excellent! Kill The Power is probably a better song to start with though

I started at your video of the new tool song and watched a few more until i got here. You guys are refreshingly honest. I love that you're not just sitting there blindly giving the thumbs up to any song suggested. You have integrity and thats hard to come by. I am gladly going to go back and run through your back catalogue. Keep it up. Im glad i found your page.

I've seen Skindred live and their energy and the crowds energy is insane! I have been a metal head for over 20 years and some songs are just flat out better LIVE cause you are surrounded by everyone else in the same head space as you!!

NONPOINT-BULLET WITH A NAME!!!

One of my favorite bands since I was kid.....I was like whhhhhaaatttt when this popped up in my notifications

FINALLY MY GOD I've been waiting for this one. React to pressure by skindred as well.

Their live shows are one of the best I've been to personally, and they are from just up the road from where I live...

Love Skindred, saw them live a few times and it's always a party!

Please do "Push It" by Static-X!

I haven’t heard them in a while. I can listen to this over and over. Really good for workout. The energy and flow is awesome. I think it feels organic and smooth meld.

I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS!!!

I can't even describe how happy I am that they stumbled upon skindred

You guys are the best out there !!

Skindred are still touring strong, sell out gigs everywhere across the U.K. I’ve seen them at least 4 times a year for the last 5 years. Never disappointed

One of the best live bands I've ever seen. They get the whole crown jumping. It's intense.

Any other UK skankers sit bolt upright at "...we need to get to ska..." Yes. Yes you do.

Need For Speed Underground 2, and MX VS ATV Unleashed family unite!!!

Man I was just looking up Skindred again (thanks nfs) and realized had never seen you react to this one, I love this start already. Music is brilliant across all genres

Try "Stand For Something" by Skindred. Another great track from the folliwing album.

This is a classic, but their more recent stuff has really improved on the combination

Skindred are one of those bands that have a way of getting under your skin with time. When you first hear them, they seem a bit out there and a bit strange, but they're so likeable and commited to their art, and their live performances are so full of energy and fun that you find yourself loving them almost against your better judgement.

Guys...I haven't heard this song since like 2004. I am now reminded of how 🔥 it was!!! Really brings me back to my high school days.

Imagine bouncing up and down to this. It's a different piece if you're just sitting down.

SKINDRED! Never clicked so fast!

y'all need to do a reaction video to some GANGSTA METAL... Ice-T's band, Body Count are pretty brutal! 🤘

If they want to go weird, try candiria. They literally do smooth jazz elevator music interludes. Not often you hear a xylophone in metal.

Me: Ooo lost in vegas is doing Skindred? They're going to love this Lost in Vegas: doesnt like it Me: I knew they wouldnt approve

If you want to try more Skindred, try "Pressure" from the same album. It's a little bit smoother

Haven’t watched yet but I love this damn band. So hype.

Listen to Leprous.. I don't like so much prog but I love leprous

Thanks guys, singing Keith Sweat now while making breakfast! :D As a metalhead from the Caribbean, I totally understand your reaction to this live song without context. I have seen Skindred live however, and they totally blew me and my crew away. The whole crowd was 1000% into it and that's where the cheesy parts come out...it fits great in the moment though :) Just don't take these guys too seriously, it's not meant to be prog, just 100% (live) fun. Even their banner is a metalhead cat, so that should hopefully give some more context. If you ever try them again, go for a live show!

Dude I’m hooked, loving this contrast!

I remember this song in high school. I didn’t love it or hate it but it definitely would amp you up. Nostalgia is hitting me

Dude, I just remembered about this band yesterday! And this metalhead is 100% here for the Keith Sweat shoutout!

Had the pleasure of seeing this band live twice, still top 5 rowdiest crowds I've ever been in. The mosh pits were insane. These guys were a breath of fresh air in the metal community and everyone was flocking to their shows at the festivals.

Saw Skindred live at Copenhell last week. Man, that was so much fun. Funny lead singer, fire performance.

YOU GUYS REALLY MAKE ME SMILE. X

I feel like y'all would've like their song Pressure better. But great video! Thank you for checking it out!

This a great band who have done some really cool things.

can't believe it took you SO long, well, it took me too and I'm a metal fan hahaha

The perfect song recommendation I never thought of. Used to FREAKING JAM to this. Perfect. Thank you. Hopefully some of your viewers get turned on to this unique band

12 foot ninja, oxygen. Please guys it's another form fusion rock I think you will love it.

Twelve foot ninja-Mothersky!! And COMING FOR YOU

I got love for you guys, having an open mind to music is a rare thing to see, and it is nice to see. I believe anyone can learn to appreciate most music.

You know I only recently started watching your vids again recently after a 2 year hiatus. But I must say.... My respect for your opinion and expertise grows exponentially every time. I realize more and more how plugged in you guys really are. Nobody gets out alive. Lol

So many memories jamming to this on NFS Underground 2... Loved this song. You guys might prefer Selector from these guys

Please do Kyuss! Greatest band ever and different metal/rock than anything you've played. Gardenia and The Law are great, or for something shorter Hwy 74.

Can we get POD reaction? Roots in stereo, alive, youth of the nation?

These guys kill it live.....crowd goes lit!.....saw them twice in South Florida........

For me the best reggae infused Skindred songs from that album are Set If Off, and Selecter. Think you might appreciate them ones more!

Rivers of Nihil - Where Owls Know My Name

this takes me way back. really gets me pumped

love these guys. the contrast is so great

this song reminds me of MX vs ATV unleashed on PS2 that soundtrack was a banger after banger

Should have viewed/reacted with a live performance of Skindred with their Newport helicopter 🤟🏻🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🤟🏻

SO glad you got to some Skindred! One of the coolest bands I know.

The first time I heard this song I was HOOKED!

Been requesting Death Grips “takyon” or “guillotine” for months now lol. They are like a rap/post-punk/noise/experimental hybrid! I’m convinced you’ve never heard anything like it.

Nobody: Skrindred: Lets put reggae into metal.

One of THE best live bands you will ever see. I've seen them three times. Doing the Newport Helicopter during Warning was something else

The boy on the right is enjoying it hahaha, the other one processes it but doesn't fully understand it. you guys are fun, new sub

Isn't this one of the soundtracks to Need for speed Underground? Really like the channel! Can't wait to see you react to At the Gates - Slaugter of the Soul 😉

always loved this song ... just a cool jamming song!

First time I heard this band they were an opening act for Disturbed. They started their set list with Roots Rock Riot(just released that album at the time) and the song hit me dead on and enjoyed their entire show. After they were done, I bought their CD, met the band and got my copy signed by the guys. Nice fellas.

Buzzing for this!! Skindred are boom

I was hopeing that one day you guys would stumble upon this. Let's see the reaction!

Skindred is still an active band; they released a new album last year, Big Tings. i was supposed to see them, but there was an issue with their visas. also, i think you would like "Rat Race" or "Trouble" better. especially the video for "Rat Race", which is done in one take.

Dude that's wild I requested this like a year ago. Glad to see it finally coming out

Y'all are a couple of true metalheads😜😜, keep bringing us the good stuff. Thanks for the Keith Sweat😄😄, that was hysterical

Y'all need some (hed) p.e. in here. Bartender and Renegade are the obvious choices but i think Hurt would be great. They also do the metal-reggae mix well.

I would say the screaming and growling are the bits that held up the best.
