This woman is METAL. Period
Yup
Next on the list of people who will be late to work because they were pulled over for speeding with THIS playing....
Facts...
Yes. Lex is metal.
@@XMorbidReignX 😂😂😂
Every man should be blessed with a woman that loves metal as much as Lex does!
she would not last ten mins on the floor with megadeth live
@@anthonygajewski1464 Elderly millennial here. I've had my girl friend/ex-wife with me at plenty of metal shows, including Megadeth. Lex would be just fine.
If they tried to see Knocked Loose at a dingy/run down venue, that would be a different story. But they'd still be fine just standing in the back. Only dinosaurs like me still crowd kill. And we only do it at beatdown shows.
I get the impression Brad does not share the same feeling as we do lol
My ex wife used to stand to my side at Punk band's and the odd metal gig and BOUNCE PEOPLE AWAY FROM ME I'VE HAD A CUPPLE OF SPINE OPERATIONS I DIDN'T EVEN KNOW SHE WAS DOING IT UNTIL SOME RANDOM SAID TO ME YOUR LADY'S GOT YA BACK!!! AND TOLD ME MOANA WAS DEFLECTING IN COMING BODY'S
@@anthonygajewski1464 I did. I've been to a few Megadeth's Concerts on the floor, on the rail!
Lex's reactions are priceless. She embodies the true essence of being a metal head, seeing her enjoy the first experience of songs I have have loved my whole life is why I watch reactions ❤
Watching Lex listening to Megadeth for the first time is like every 80’s kid hearing Megadeth for the first time and saying.. “ WTF did I just hear!!!!” That is Metal history grabbing your soul and saying… “yup I’m here”!’
Nailed it, I was thinking same
yes.
Brad: Hold up he just said “they killed his wife and baby” and you like that?
Lex: WITH HOPES TO ENSLAVE ME!
I died 🤣🤣
😂😂😂😂
Best part of the reaction...I love when she sings the lyrics!
yea 😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Some people don't understand negative emotions in music. Their minds just don't work that way. I remember having a friend listen to Mein Teil by Rammstein and I said the "solo" (which is simply keyboard screams) was amazing to me because it sounded like raw pain. He looked at me and said, "and that's good?" Some people do not understand that when a sound can create or portray an unadulterated emotion, it is extraordinarily powerful. Of course, he was a big reggae guy so happy dinka-donka was pretty much his musical repertoire.
The second the riff starts Lex’s smile appears! Natural born metal head 🤟
The comment I was looking for.
No return for Lexi. She is all in
agreed ynwa
Agreed, she is a little boss
She's infected 🤟 she try's sooo hard but she can't hide it or hold it in.
Lex, you have officially been given your metalhead card!! Carry it with pride! You are one of us now!! 🤘🤘🤘
Yes, you evidently need no initialization, you are granted access to the metal kingdom!!!
This lineup was a incredible group. Complicated, highly technical metal. Master class.
Legends.
Reading this comment now given the Israel Palestine shit happening rn, hits home.
Smartest comment I have ever heard "I want to know more than the news is showing me" respect 💯
That’s pretty much common sense at this point..I think we all know the media is 100 percent at fault for dividing this country and they only show us what they want while leaving out what we deserve. There is no more news in this country. Journalism is a thing of the past
Bro, for real, that's so great. Don't listen to those in suits, do your own research
The news is only shock value and ratings. Paid activists. Agenda driven.
read news from all spectrums and digest them however you see fit. just don’t go down conspiracy rabbit holes
Hell yes
I've been a metalhead for 30 years, and seeing Lex getting into these tunes has given me a new layer of appreciation for the music. Great channel!
was gonna like but 66 likes
Right?
IKR? Gives me chicken skin.
I like reaction videos also, especially when its a Good song & someone is just Discovering it. The Band or song.
i had a similar reaction when seeing Holy Wars back in 1990.
Closer to 40, but same. always a joy seeing our own then Fire & Excitement mirrored in the now-days. Our Ways will outlast us🤘🍻🤣
This song will always be relevant cause things never change. 30 or 40 year cycles and history always repeats its trends and ebbs and flows
The lyrics fit perfectly for the crusades and even isreal palestine, sad how little changes
@@vampmode9132 Damn, you know what's crazy? I think that's *exactly* what the song was written about... No! It couldn't be...
Dave has that great ability to tell a story within a song, a truly great song writer!
Most of his songs are political he takes on the system that is my opinion anyway
@@SouthernThoughts some are not most
@@Septicshites most of there big songs are and it’s my damn opinion
Lex is a firecracker! Her reaction and smiles whenever the songs get heavy and faster are priceless. She gets it.
👍
#SheGetsIt
@@thomasbrogan9102 Let’s make this THE hashtag on their Metal/Rock reviews lol! 🤘🏻
@@jasonbodden8816 agreed 😀
She is awesome!
Lex is jamming lol love it!! She's definitely has metal running through her veins, loving it! 🤣🤟🔥
Me at 13. Just imagine 😳
@@albertgein3082 same lol🤣🤟
She is a keeper!
Love 100
Hers is one of the best reactions I have ever seen!
When he says LAST MISTAKE , never heard his sound so strong & heavy! he said it like he Felt it!
the way brad was smiling so wide at lex when she was going crazy enjoying the music was adorable LMAO
Dude, she's absorbing the music so quickly, it's crazy! I had so much fun watching her reaction.
Like Neo in the Matrix. I know....Metal
how i reacted in 6th grade when it came out, n still do
This whole album is an absolute masterpiece. A true metal classic.
music classic.
Rust in Peace
Best album to listen cover to cover !!!
I agree 👏👏👏🔥🔥🔥
FACTS , one of the Best Albums of All time!!!!!!!
Best reaction ever!!! Love how adrenalized Lex got and the look on Brad's face watching her...priceless!
Dude, look at her getting into this right from the start! This is what the world needs! People of every color and culture coming together to enjoy each other’s music, no matter who makes it, and no matter when or where it comes from. White people have been into rap for so long now and when I see Black people getting into metal, it really gives me hope for the future because I feel like we’re finally open to enjoying each other’s cultures! This video right here is proof that we can all come together and jam as one people!!!
Dave Mustaine writes the best riffs in metal history, puts them all in one song..
☠🤣☠🤣
@@chrisbergsten1429 hell yeah!
And then Marty Friedman with the insane solos!
Hell yeah
Mustaine wastes riffs that would be the crowning achievement of another band.
Dave Mustaine wrote this after playing in Ireland and getting into trouble for comments he made about the troubles there but it does apply to Israel /Palestine.
The second part of the songs is inspired by The Punisher comic book character.
This is important. Knowing the song changes the story in the 2nd half
what did he say when he was in Ireland?
@@pineapplecan_1293 Sorry mate, I don't recall what he actually said or who it upset, it was 30 odd years ago. You could probably Google it and get a better explanation than I could give.
@@pineapplecan_1293 "Ireland for the irish, english go home", or something like that. But he didn't know that 50% of the public was pro IRA, and 50% was pro Unionist. And suddenly, he discovered that his brilliant speech had been a disaster.
@@pineapplecan_1293
He was for a united Ireland, but Southern Ireland is Catholic and Northern Ireland is Protestant, and the two factions have been having a literal Holy War for like 200 years. The people in the North want to be under British Control. The South want to be completely free of British Control.
The second half of this song is about The Punisher.
Seeing Lex losing her mind and saying "they killing it!!" Was the best thing I've seen in a long time. Rock on!
Lex’s reaction to Dave’s last solo made me subscribe! Absolutely love the passion!! One of my all time favorite bands which at the time had two guitar legends at the same time
Lex's reaction is the proper reaction to this song. This song always gives me chills, 30 years after hearing it for the first time. Best Thrash metal song. Ever.
I was born in the late 90's (1998) but man, I wish I was a teenager or early 20's when this came out 😎🔥
Watching her brings me back, haha.
This is definitely one of the five greatest metal songs ever recorded.
I played this for the first time in my walkman, 1991. I never forget that feeling with the last solo. "Holy wars" is the peak of thrash metal, imho this is very hard to deny.
It's not, but we all really get it. It's up there.
You know when Lex really likes a song, she bounces the couch hard enough to make Brad move. #moshcouch
I love the way she smiles when she hears guitars shredding.
Lex's reaction to this song is priceless 🤘🤘
This is one of the greatest metal songs ever written. You should check out the entire album. It is called Rust in Peace. Banger after banger.
Yes yes yes
I can't think of a better metal song
The entire album is a Metal Masterpiece.
@@keithferris9574 I can.... Master of puppets.... And denying it.
@@gashthrasher_8976 hahahahahaha hahahahahhahahs 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Master of POPets? Jahahhahahahahhahahahshhaha
One of these days, Lex is just going to bounce Brad right off the couch. :D
The internet can easily fall in love with the quirky greatness of Lex. Keep rocking Lex! Blood in a vial with a meter next to it. I love that. The lady is a writer.
I just love your videos. It brings me so much joy to watch you guys experience bands like Megadeth for the first time. Keep rocking!!!!
Great reaction but Symphony of destruction is a must by these guys.
Oh ya!
Thats not holy! Lol
Symphony and Sweating bullets...
Excellent song and probably definitely for a beginner. It's one of their more basic ones in this era
@@5firebird hangar 18 too
Dave Mustain was one of the founding members of Metallica. They kicked him out, so he started Megadeth.
Lexi's gonna love metal...🤟
P.S. tornado of souls...
Yes. Tornado of souls 🌪!
First they gotta hear Peace Sells and then I think they oughta do the title track off this album...Polaris. In My Darkest Hour is pretty badass, too.
They kicked him out and he ended up making better music in 2 albums than Metallica did in 5 .
@@MrFrod-eh6lz didn’t Metallica have 3 albums out when Megadeth had 2?
@@vxm6503 Well what I meant was that the quality of Megadeth is higher, even though Metallica has quantity.
damn your takes are so spot on, refreshing and provoking... lovem, please keepem coming !!
I’ve watched this video so many times. The music gets me pumped up and watching Lex is priceless! I’ll get you a million views before I die. You two are the best.
I'd love to see Lex at a Megadeth concert. She'd rule the mosh pit. She needs to experience this in real life. Just once, go see them. A two hour concert will blow your mind!
I fckin love moshing but I broke my shoulder the last time I moshed a few years ago. I'm also 30, maybe it's time to stop lol. I don't want to stop though
@@ext93 Fuck that -- -I'll be 50 in March and I'm still in the pit occasionally. Admittedly less often than in my 20's, but the urge to smash shit never really recedes.
@@Bakura5445 right on bro. Believe me I want to smash in the pit, but I really DONT like dislocating my shoulders lol
Watching Lex rocking out makes me smile from ear to ear
I mean this in the most loving way possible, in the last section of the song I was cracking up so much, not only remembering my first time hearing holy wars but also only seeing you guys from the torso up and Lex bouncing around like mad, you reminded me of puppets in a show jumping about and going mental.
Yes he is killing it.
Just discovered you guys on my day off and it's been well spent going through your ball catalogue.
Keep up the great work.
Love from Ireland 🇮🇪
I like how he's almost offended at her enjoyment of the music because of the dark lyrics. Hilarious. This entire album is a metal masterpiece.
Lex would love the song “Tornado of Souls”
because... ''...in the eye of the TORNADO... BLOW ME AWAY!''
Great song
Five magics would be great too, the ending guitar solo for it is on crack
She is a tornado of souls!!!!!!!1
@@someguy7526 they just did 5 Magics today and already did tornado.
I love how excited beautiful little lady gets! Total respect for the shred!
I'm not usually a reaction video guy but she 100% gets it. I love how she feels the energy and drive of the song.
New subscriber. Smiling from start to end. Keep feeling the grove.
Lex's explanation of her reaction to this song is priceless!! I'm so lucky to have grown up with this music and love to see others appreciate it!
Watching Lex's face, hearing her say "OH", opening her eyes wide, holding her headset and otherwise jamming makes me happy. There should be some sort of rating system that incorporates all of her reactions, like this song gets 2 OH's and clapping or this song gets and "interesting." Love you guys, just found you and can't get enough.
You guys make these songs new again. Like hearing it for the first time again, through you guys! Thanks for making these videos...!!
I have loved progressing through these videos and watching you both turn into a pair of metallers
Lex not only hears it she feels it! That's metal!!
The first part of the song is about the Troubles in Ireland, the war on crime is based on The Punisher.
She gets it, she definitely gets it!🤘
Love you guys always enjoy watching!!!
You just listened to a 31 years old masterpiece of Trash Metal. Love how it really gets Lex.
Lol this comment is hilarious because it says a masterpiece of trash metal.
🚮 🤣🤣
*Thrash
Sometimes, I think that the only reason Brad is going down this metal journey is to see the look of pure bliss on Lex's face... You can really tell when he side-eyes her while she's rocking out & he gets that grin... It's obvious he's suffering thru this for her
I dont think "suffering" is the right word to describe the enjoyment of another's joy.
thnx, dudes. i was all uptight and shit like normal but watch'n u'ns made me smile. it couldnt be help't, u'all crack'd me up and changed the rest of my day. thats good shit. thank u both 😁
She’s really a metal head and just discovering that with this song. No one can fake that!
Lex is definitely an un-closeted metal head.
its truly an art to headbanging correctly. most newbies are too shy but if u just let go and give in to the metal it makes the experience waaaay better
"This is our channel." LOL! Love you guys! Keep up the videos! Loving your song selections, too! Keep scratching that itch... There's a lot more out there!
I absolutely love watching Lex react to the music I've listened to all my life- she is such a pure, metal loving chic even if she didn't know it, she does now! Her smile amd her rockin out makes me so happy and appreciate the fact I've had the pleasure of listening and seeing these bands live in my lifetime! BTW Megadeth is touring in 2022 maybe you could see them live ! Rock on guys, ill keep watching 🤘🏻
I fully expect that Lex is gonna become a metal vocalist before too long.
When she was singing his lyrics, I was like "oh shit". I'd love to hear her cover this!
The greatest metal song EVER composed.
There is an official video for this track... seeing it being played is even more impressive.
absolutely love her animated reaction!!!! pure metalhead through and through!!! 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
I know I'm like 6 months late to this video, but happy new year! I just want to say that I really appreciate how you try to authentically react to and discuss music. So many public figures seem to fear making a mistake or being "wrong" so they research or prepare rather than experience, so your content feels incredibly fresh by comparison. Thank you!
OMFG Lex is a serious headbanger!
She was diggin it!!!
Love seeing kids discover the music of my youth and they immediately "get it", and she definitely does. Political, rebellious, and absolute killing it.
I completely enjoy your analysis and analogies of these songs that are slightly metaphoric. I am a huge Megadeth fan since the beginning, they never cease to amaze.
By far the best reaction i have ever seen from you two . until the next one
This might be one of my favourite reactions, period. That was awesome, seeing someone get so much thrill out of this tune transported me back to my teens. And put a big smile on my face.
OMG!!! Lex is my female young self 🤣🤣🤣 That's exactly how I reacted when I heard those songs in highschool 🤘🔥
Brad is my wise best friend that is very clever, cools me down and analyse all the meaning and lyrics of the song. You guys are awesome! Stay heavy 🤘🖤
Brad just vibing while also laughing at lex has me dead. Definitely subscribed!
You guys have a good channel. Lots of music I grew up on.
Best reaction ever!!! I love how mellow Brad is and then Lex is a full on Metal Head 🤘🤘
Lex might be the coolest chick on the planet.
@@chadwhitfield6946 🤘🤘
I agree!
Lex is awesome 🤘🏽
Aaaah yes Megadeth! Can't wait to see how you guys like their back catalogue. "Sweating Bullets" would be a fun one to do next
Solid recommendation there. That, or High speed dirt. Honestly tho, the entire Rust in peace album is up there for me with And Justice, Cowboys from Hell and the like. bad ass from start to finish....
Definitely!!!
Yes
Keep watching this video every few days. Love the song and watching Lex gets me lit, as you guys say. You’ll be up to 20, 000 views if I keep watching. Couple cocktails and watching Lex go nuts makes my day.
Seen this reaction several times. One of my favorites
Wow Metallica now Megadeth...🤘
Maybe we can get them into Iron Maiden Next!
Leveled up
@@krishramessur4969 You "have to" do it right? lol. Always the same. I love this community.
Go Lex, becoming a heavy metal devotee. You're killing it.
You two are infectious. I have to watch all your videos now.
I don’t know how many times I’ve listened to this song with you. One of the best guitar riffs ever, and to watch Lex is priceless. Still makes me laugh.
I love the look on Brad's face when Lex is
spazzing and thrashing, 😂 Priceless!
Megadeth are one of the "big four" of 90's thrash metal along with Metallica, Slayer and Anthrax (all still touring!). Dave Mustain was originally in Metallica before forming Megadeth. Keep on with the metal reactions, love the ying/yang of your two. If you want something a bit more challenging then dive into Opeth, for more visceral try Gojira, for more melodic try Plini, for more technical try Polyphia or Animals as Leaders, for downright dirty with breakdowns galore try Crystal Lake, for the most diverse vocals try Jinjer or Spiritbox or Tallah, and there are so many classics from Black Sabbath, Deep Purple, Yes, Pink Floyd, Jethro Tull which is where it all started - in fact there is a metal genre/style for all occasions and all moods.
Megadeth was one of the Four Horsemen that started it all
They love Jinjer. Thank you, I had not heard of Plini, Polyphia, Animals as Leaders, Crystal Lake, Spiritbox. or Tallah. I will need to check them out.
@@alricaneshama plini is instrumental jazz/metal fusion, AaL and Polyphia are instrumental Djent, Crystal Lake is Japanese metal/deathcore, Spiritbox are similar to Jinjer with an equally good vocalist, and Tallah, hmmm, well if Korn, Linking Park, Limp Bizkit and Slipknot had a child and they were fed metal core Tallah would be it! Enjoy.
Slayer still tours?
I guess no-one is touring at the moment but I saw Slayer in 2019 which was part of their farewell tour, not sure if they had finished it when Covid Struck.
this song its an absolute masterpiece, with the pedal to the floor from the start.
This came out just before I shipped out for Desert Storm, so it was obviously written probably early 1990 before anything even happened. One of my top 5 Megadeth songs.
Lex’s reaction is gold!! She knows what’s up!! 🤘🏼🤘🏼
"War is a racket." - Major General Smedley Butler, USMC
This is the first channel I've seen really delve into their own interpretation of the lyrics. Good shit!
I love watching someone fall in love with metal. Spectacular. Can’t think of a better song to welcome you into the fold.
Do “Peace Sells” “Symphony of Destruction” “Sweating Bullets” the Megadeth rabbit hole!!
Awesome that’s how I feel when I listen to them also Lex‼️🔥💯
Keep the Metal reactions coming loving the content‼️💯🔥🤘🏼
Holy Wars, first song and The Punishment Due is the second song
Two different songs, Holy Wars is about Dave's experience in Ireland and The Punishment Due is about the Punisher, a Marvel character
I was just gonna say something
I just commented that & you beat me to it already
I actually didn’t know this and listened to this song so many times, that makes things so much clearer
I’m glad I watched this one again. Amazing reaction
That guitar bit, the start of the "awesome solo" where she got super lit, that little Blitzkrieg tapdance across your senses is Iconic AF!!! OMG, that one little bit of savagery sticks with you and is just timeless in it's awesomeness!!
I love Lex' reaction to this. I have been a metal head since my first 8 track....seeing her reactions just reminds of what this music did for me.
She is totally a metal head!! This is definitely one of the classics but anything off this album is amazing
Definitely one of the best albums ever made
Love this song!!! Love Lex’s energy!!! You’re killing it girl!!!
Love watching you guys getting it !! NUK ASS!
Lex is a metal head and didn't even know until recently days. Love it.
The first of the song is about religious war and the second part is taken from the comic The Punisher
Oh my God, she is adorable. Kind of reminds me of my daughter. She's so happy listening to this. From the beginning it sounded like she can carry a tune also
It brings me so much joy to see lex rocking out so hard and to one of the best solos ever.
