I've been a Skid Row fan since I was 7 (I'm 39 now), and that's the first time I'm impressed with a skid row singer other than Sebastian. Very good, Erik!
I entered here to state that only Sebastian can sing properly and finally I was amazed by the video. The voice is exactly like on the record and I really regret not looking up Eric's career. 🤔
Wow. I was expecting to hate on this guy but after listening to this, I'm pretty blown away. This guy actually rocks pretty damn hard and a really strong voice. Really good job!!
@@uisselamat2574 What? He's taking Chemo???? I did not know that. And performing so in the pocket with such energy like this? There IS NO choice but have mad respect for this guy.....
He is always like this. Of course he is happy to sing in Skid Row, but under the 13 years I´ve seen him on stage he always smiles and sings his lungs out.
the album is out and its pretty damn good i must say. as a former no bach no skid row guy, damn i cant wait to hear what they make in the future... new album kicks
Props to the frontman. Trying to even begin to hold up a band like Skid Row following in the footsteps of the wild man Sebastian is a task that aside for only the bravest Of the brave. This guy did a damn good job.
I have been waiting for someone to have been born into this world with an amazing natural high voice and then learn how to sing even higher by idolising Sebastian as he grew up singing these songs to then join Skid Row and be as good if not better than Sebastian ever was and revitalise these tired old guys and make them play better than they have for 25 years, this is awesome to see this happening I bet Sebastian is shaking in his boots, how must it feel to be Sebastian right now knowing someone is singing his songs better than he ever did and absolutely kicking ass and making him look like a real old has been. I hope this lights a fire under Mr Bach's ass and he gets himself in shape and works on getting his voice back to the way it was instead the horrible tone he sings with nowadays, Sebastian was brilliant back in the day don't get me wrong but it's been sad watching him deteriorate and become unrecognisable visually and vocally, I can't watch Sebastian sing nowadays as he is sadly disappointing and has lost what he once had.
Hes brought skid row back into the limelight ..yes i do love original singer but he brought them back alive like new singer journey did but lead singer queen will never be freddy ever
I love Sebastian and I believed that was impossible for skid row to find a singer that nails it like him. But this time.. ohh this time.. I think they found it. Most difficult songs to sing in rock history and this guy kills it. Nice!
I completely can't get over just how good he is!! I mean he hits every single note perfectly in key while walking around the stage, and his tone, vocal range and power, is truely amazing to listen to!
@@davydarkohi3016 It’s too bad Sebastian wasn’t Sebastian either. He could only pull off 70% of the studio work live. This kid is like the albums live. Now Bach’s studio work is right up there with Halford, Tate, & Dickinson…but live, he left a bit to be desired.
Bruh I’m named after Sebastian. He hasn’t had it. This dude emulates very fucking well. He naturally sounds like it. Like Marc Martel with Freddie Mercury
Erik Grönwall won Swedish Idol in 2009. He audition with 18 and Life and it still to this day is one of the best audition in Swedish Idol history. He had is own band for 10 years. In 2021 he got diagnosed with cancer, lymphocytic leukemia. When Skid Row contacted him to sing with the band he was still weak after his chemo. Here is the video from his audition in Swedish Idol: czcams.com/video/Mkx5TU48A2U/video.html
Guys actually solid and can sing. Love it. You can tell he grew up listening to Bach... Dudes voice is HEAVILY influenced off 80s vocalists. Definitely the best vocalist theyve had since Bach
Good Luck in you're new frontship!.... I'm 59.... yup... I saw the best in the 80's... and you're bringing that fuckin kick-ass back.....!!!!!!! ❤️🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘👍👍👍👍👍
This singer nailed it! Don't argue with me. I listened to their albums 1000s of times. Believe me, if I thought he wasn't cutting it, I mean killing it, I'd be the first dickhead to attack him. I can't imagine anyone coming closer to the rock God master front maniac singer/screamer SB.
In all fairness he is 34 vs some of these front men in original bands are in their 50/60s. They can’t be expected to hit those high notes like when they were younger. I have to say it’s ok if you need help to hit the high notes but if you can’t even carry the tune anymore then it is time to hang it up. Don’t ruin our memories.
I went to this concert a week after this performance.I didn't think they would be as good without Sabastian bach.boy was I wrong.and I must say the zapos theater had excellent sound to it.scorpions were awesome too
@@oliversmith2511 Sebastian eas fired back in... Omg... it was some time in the mid 90's ... because the band kept fighting internal battles and had massive creative and production disagreements that just messed up everything in terms of music and album creation, and the fight went on for days on end... abd Bach was usually the firestarter, stubbornly like a childish dictator because "He was the sound"...
Hes fuckin AMAZING I rocked Skid Row since i was 17 speeding around Queens NY in my Camaro BLARING Skid Rows First album on my benzi box ALPINE ..SIGH....those were the dayz....this guy is a perfect replacement . i love Sebaz of course but this guy carrys the flag...
No wonder Sabastian Back gets all salty and defensive when talking about Skid Row.....WOW, this guy has taken Skid Row and resurrected this band!!!!! His vocals are PHEMONENAL!! Skid Row songs no longer belong to Sabastian!!!! Damn they sound exactly like they did in the 90's, even better!!!
This is the best that I've heard them sound since Sebastian left. I don't know if this is a new singer or what but you guys are finally rocking hard once again. Awesome job !!!
Sebastian Bach always and forever be Skid Row, , Sebastian is vocaly trained to hit high notes, he is frekin amazing. the singer in this video done a great job,
The dude has a really good voice but I don't know if it just me that my ears still looking for that distinct voice of the young Sebastian back in the 90's specially for the songs 18 & Life and I remember you. However, Skid Row still really rock. 🎯
Ahhhh memories.... 18 & Life was my favourite song as a kid. Everyone else was into Madonna, NKOTB etc & I was a little metalhead in my skin tight black jeans, New Metal boots etc. Not much has changed - I’m just an older metalhead now. I seen Sebastian Bach perform when I was travelling in in Sydney, Australia years ago & he was amazing (although he looked totally whacked out). This new guy seems really good. He has that Seb kinda voice needed for these songs while still just being himself. Great to see Skid Row are still going 😎
So good to see a band that was part of my childhood and adolescence return with everything turning around and making the biggest success. And to see how the band has matured with the new singer and how they are in tune and everyone with an incredible stage presence .
As much as i hate re-incarnate bands with new singers, this guy fits Skid Row and does a GREAT job on vocals. He has charisma and can hold his own, working the crowd and they enjoyed their concert. Skid Row was great with Seabass, but surviving well, with respect from a fan !
I've been a Skid Row fan since I was 7 (I'm 39 now), and that's the first time I'm impressed with a skid row singer other than Sebastian. Very good, Erik!
Exactly
Check out Greta Van Fleet. incredibly impressive vocals
same here im 37 been a fan since the late 90's Erik is killin it!
I entered here to state that only Sebastian can sing properly and finally I was amazed by the video. The voice is exactly like on the record and I really regret not looking up Eric's career. 🤔
Wow. I was expecting to hate on this guy but after listening to this, I'm pretty blown away. This guy actually rocks pretty damn hard and a really strong voice. Really good job!!
Same but I do hate that fucking hat though lol
@@Pinche_GringoFYI, he is undergoing some chemo treatment dude. Respect to this guy🙏
@@uisselamat2574 I know. I can still hate his hat though.
@@uisselamat2574 What? He's taking Chemo???? I did not know that. And performing so in the pocket with such energy like this? There IS NO choice but have mad respect for this guy.....
@@Pinche_Gringo 😂😂😂😂
Skid Row will never be Skid Row again without Affuso and Bach. Anything else is a tribute band.
Thank you
So
Sebastian rocked the 90s, but you will rock the rest of time! Peace
You can see in his eyes that he is happy to be there giving his best
He is always like this. Of course he is happy to sing in Skid Row, but under the 13 years I´ve seen him on stage he always smiles and sings his lungs out.
@@bstfortst1 the guy is a beast
Sebastian called and said he wants his voice back, Scott Weiland also called and he wants his clothes back
Gene Simmons called, but put the phone down.
Wow,. What a voice.
This dude is PHENOMENAL.
Holy shit that frontman is good! Now the Skids need to put out a new album!
Release in October ,listen the single The Gangs all here! Erik is Awesome!
the album is out and its pretty damn good i must say.
as a former no bach no skid row guy, damn i cant wait to hear what they make in the future... new album kicks
@@dvvaughn564 Most excellent! Thanks!!
Yeah new timebomb its good
Props to the frontman. Trying to even begin to hold up a band like Skid Row following in the footsteps of the wild man Sebastian is a task that aside for only the bravest Of the brave. This guy did a damn good job.
What ever happened to Sebastian? Is he still alive?
He's sort of adequate - not great; nice try though
Exactly, agreed.
@@posernaphtali19 looks like it... didnt know he wasnt skid row anymore XD i was wondering where his hair was and then see this is a different singer
Yes
You can see that Erik has spent countless hours listening to Sebastian! I’m impressed
SKID ROW THE BEST CONCERT LAS VEGAS

Finally! the search is over. Couldnt ge any better than this guy.
This is the Bachest guy you have ever had. My warmest congrats guys😊💪🎸🎉

He's no Sebastian

He was good but I'm not sure about greatest...
.......wow, he s damn GOOD! I didn' t expected this skill. AWESOME!
This bloke smoked it!!😱 Excellent job!!🍻🍻
Proud to be a Swede like Erik. Must be a privilige to front a band like this. Great voice, great character.

Ok, that makes sense since his voice doesn't have the power at this stage. He has the range though.
FINALLY keep this guy Snake ! this is the guy !!!
Made me feel 18 again 🤘
The show must go on and this singer did an excellent job, I'd buy a ticket.
this old man saw them with the greatest band ever.. Pantera. My two favorite bands at the time. so.. Skids and Scorpions? hell yeah!
Pantera 🤘
I’m 16 and I love skid row I listen to classic rock when I’m in the school hallways
Guys actually solid and can sing. Love it. You can tell he grew up listening to Bach... Dudes voice is HEAVILY influenced off 80s vocalists. Definitely the best vocalist theyve had since Bach
Finally! A replacement worthy of fronting this awesome band.
He’s good! Damn! This dude is singing this song perfect!
Was at this show. Didn’t know what to expect. Skid Row delivered the goods
Good Luck in you're new frontship!.... I'm 59.... yup... I saw the best in the 80's... and you're bringing that fuckin kick-ass back.....!!!!!!! ❤️🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘👍👍👍👍👍

Holy he’s got the voice. Awesome range
Snyggt sjunget Erik! Det är imponerande att du kom med i ditt drömband. Tack för ett fantastiskt framträdande!
I remember this song as a kid, absolutely rocked it out!
@Ducati 749
Which song???
There were two songs in this video clip!
Just great all around especially the vocals, so many of these guys have nothing left especially up in that register. Top notch.
In all fairness he is 34 vs some of these front men in original bands are in their 50/60s. They can’t be expected to hit those high notes like when they were younger. I have to say it’s ok if you need help to hit the high notes but if you can’t even carry the tune anymore then it is time to hang it up. Don’t ruin our memories.
I always listen to this music
He started his career with this song in swedish idol 13 years ago, pretty cool that he found his way to Skid Row
He'd never imagined he was gonna be a member of Skid Row when he sang this song in Swedish Idol. What a life!
I went to this concert a week after this performance.I didn't think they would be as good without Sabastian bach.boy was I wrong.and I must say the zapos theater had excellent sound to it.scorpions were awesome too
Erik was fantastic in H.E.A.T. and now he is even better in Skid Row, he is by far the best hard rock front man and signer nowadays!
You might be getting a little carried away there dude
Hahahahahahaha!!!! Holy flying fuck.
He's good...
...but not _that_ good!
Im kid 90's skid row top fan . I am now 49 yo.. skidrow never fade.. 💪💪💪
As somebody who grew up with skid this guys alright for 2022 but really nobody is better than Bach I’ll just listen to the old stuff
What an amazing singer... YESSSSS
Long Live Skid Row, Nice that there still waving the flag.Im impressed.
He’s Incredible
This guy is good singer, congrats, let's make some noise, i love this band!
This singer is awesome.
I'm shocked. Good for them. They finally have a legit replacement for their vocalist. Even his tone and tambre is similar. Excellent work.
Agree, his voice is very similar to that of Sabastian Bach, almost like a clone, it sounds great.
What happened to Sabastion? I wondered if it was him by the sound. But looking at him I thought that can't be him can it?
@@oliversmith2511 Sebastian eas fired back in...

not even close to the Goat Bach🤷🏽
@@edgardoarroyo7418 You’re ignorance is showing. He’s actually fantastic.
What a perform haven't sounded is beautiful since 80's like stazing wow
No wonder the Bands smiling . Holy Shit this guys good . I'll pay to see this Line Up .
This Vocalist Power like a Young Sebastian Bach
Hes fuckin AMAZING I rocked Skid Row since i was 17 speeding around Queens NY in my Camaro BLARING Skid Rows First album on my benzi box ALPINE ..SIGH....those were the dayz....this guy is a perfect replacement . i love Sebaz of course but this guy carrys the flag...
I love Skid row
Holy fuck! Incredible vocalist!!!
What a singer! This is the best thing happening for Skid Row for a very long time!
Hell yes ....WOW wow great singer....perfect job good good
Damn guy is nailing high register. Keep going!
No wonder Sabastian Back gets all salty and defensive when talking about Skid Row.....WOW, this guy has taken Skid Row and resurrected this band!!!!!
His vocals are PHEMONENAL!! Skid Row songs no longer belong to Sabastian!!!!
Damn they sound exactly like they did in the 90's, even better!!!
They finally found someone as good as Sebastian at being Sebastian let's hope we get a new album that can match Slave to the Grind.
I am happy for them am going to see them in 2 weeks. But he is not as good as a 1991 Sebastian Bach. But he is as good as you are going to get
😳🤣
Haaa match "slave to the grind" good luck. This is pathetic. Sebastian is skid row. This is borderline stolen valor
@@justinkassinger8238👍👍👍
The kids got some pipes sounds killer!
Holy Shit…. He sounds amazing and looks great 👍
This is the best that I've heard them sound since Sebastian left. I don't know if this is a new singer or what but you guys are finally rocking hard once again. Awesome job !!!
It's their actual singer, joined Skid Row this year. His name is Erik Grönwall, previously from H.E.A.T.
SORRY to disagree. I don't think we are hearing the same thing .
Then clean the wax out of you're ears..
czcams.com/video/C2w3cok19jo/video.html same guy actually
Sebastian Bach always and forever be Skid Row, , Sebastian is vocaly trained to hit high notes, he is frekin amazing.
the singer in this video done a great job,
Fu kin ' nailed it!! "THAT CHILD BLEW A CHILD AWAAAAAAAAAAAAY! "
The dude has a really good voice but I don't know if it just me that my ears still looking for that distinct voice of the young Sebastian back in the 90's specially for the songs 18 & Life and I remember you. However, Skid Row still really rock. 🎯
This guy knocked it outta the park !!
damn! the singer pretty much killed it! he's worthy. he's a keeper for the band for sure.
Wow, he’s actually great!!💯💯💯
Got their voice back....... the feeling has returned...... I'm going to see them now
🤘
Ahhhh memories.... 18 & Life was my favourite song as a kid. Everyone else was into Madonna, NKOTB etc & I was a little metalhead in my skin tight black jeans, New Metal boots etc. Not much has changed - I’m just an older metalhead now.

Pleasantly surprised with the vocalist.
WOW! Vocals were awesome! Band sounds great!
Way better than sebastian would be now
Great job. Love it. Welcome back Skid Row. 💪💪💪💪
Best signer ever, so so so awesome to see him back on stage. He deserves this all so much ❤️ I'm so happy for him. 🖤
I swear if I close my eyes it would actually be Sebastian Bach singing! I am speechless!
I hope this lineup keeps going! Frickin" awesome!
The singer did a great job. That's the only spot in Skid Row that is very difficult to properly replace.
So good to see a band that was part of my childhood and adolescence return with everything turning around and making the biggest success. And to see how the band has matured with the new singer and how they are in tune and everyone with an incredible stage presence .
Yes!!!!! He's still has it sounding pretty damn great!!!!!
Who?? SEB or eric
I actually played as the warm-up band in high school with my then band, right before this guy. He was the headlining act. It was in 2010. Good times!
They sounded great. Glad I caught them at the Vegas residency. Amazing sound at that Zappos theater.
Their best vocalist since Bach by far!
Better than Bach character
Wow this guy is amazing it's like I was listening to the original line up
Great singer, great range and energy 🤘
Thats Sebastian bach
@@stevenahearn3240 no but he's kicking ass!
@@byronmcmickle4053 i was just kidding, he sounds amazing!
Saw them a few years ago with ZP and he did pretty good but this guy absolutely nails it

Sounds awesome 🤟
Holy S, Skid Row must be so happy 👍🏻
This song brings back some memories 👍

Wow! This guy is killer. He's got the "it" factor. Finally Snake you did it. (Found someone)
He is indeed good....... some new material will be the definitive answer.
@@DutchVai check out "Gang's all Here" on CZcams. That's pure proof this guy is a killer singer!
@@antimurphy8212 yeah man that was good...... and as I understand it, he only met the band in person a few days prior to this performance ?
@@DutchVai yes. 4 days I believe.
Yeah as much as I'd love a reunion, this guy is killing it🤘
Yaaa grew up with this band. This is refreshing
Sounds great
While I still miss Bach, you did a pretty good job with a replacement. I would come to see you live!
nice job Erik Gronwall.. The voice of 80' band is back on Skid Row.. you nailed it dude!!
Freakin awesome!!!
So far what I heard of the new album. It’s a good one to get. 👍🏻
