Growing up with a father who was raised on big band swing music and gave me my first drum lessons, Kirk was always one of my favorite & influential drummers in how he could drive such fast and heavy songs with steady straight tempo on the hi-hat (or ride) while swinging the bass, snare, and accents just tastefully ever so slightly off that driving tempo beat!
I was just telling my sons about him! Dude had that beat, technic, everything! His playing on the first album “metal church” is insane, the start of “my favorite” nightmare is on fire!
The true fourth member of the Big Four, they earn it on album pedigree as first one was released in 1984 and unlike Joey of Anthrax, all Church singers could sing
That feeling of freedom, pure happiness and high on endorphins (along with a couple beers) in the front rows of your favourite bands playing is THE best feeling in the world.. hail metal 🤘🏻🕶️
People don't even know the vocal chords and strength it takes to sing at that level!!! Fuckin awesome 🤘🤘🤘🤘😎😎😎🔥🔥🔥🔥 Great job guys!!! Love Metal Church!!!
I personally knew David. I even rented practice space to Reverend. After I split up with my ex, David and I dated for a short time. His memorial website has photos I took of him. I saw MC in Seattle with Ronnie singing...it made me cry. Ronnie does a great job.
Suzanne Marie , A 5 year old comment like that and nobody says nothing. Well I will. Your story makes me cry. Metal Church is my favorite band ever. I saw them perform in 1985 with David Wayne. In a small bar on Long Island called Sundance. It was the best metal show I ever saw. Then and still today! Hands down. I got to shake David's hand while he sang Gods of Wrath. I'll never forget that night in 85! Btw, I WILL check out those pictures. Definitely! And yeah, Ronnie is awesome. But it's Kurdt's band. Why he ever parted ways with David and the 1st drummer Kurt Arrington is beyond me! But i still respect Kurdt Vanderhoof and Metal Church for keeping the band alive. We all miss David Wayne. I feel your pain. Even tho I didn't know him personally like you did.
I saw MC in Boston in 85 or 86, I was about 4 feet from David, awesome show, I still have the tshirt and the original album. I just saw MC last Saturday in New Bedford, MA. Lots of great stuff from that band.
I saw them with David Wayne who was awesome and Ronnie does him such justice. He’s the only Metal singer who’s performing can make me cry cause it’s just that damn good.
you can see the faces. bewildered they realize that the first Metal Church album and THAT band started it all and they dont know how to react. and the kid upfront knows.....he knows...R.I.P David Wayne, Mike Howe, we love and miss the Church.. !!!!
I agree, this band gives 200% every time they hit the stage!! This was in my opinion the best live performance by Metal Church ive ever heard!! 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
When I was a little kid about 7 years old about 1980 my sister took me to a house in Everett Washington and hung out with one of guitarists and had a gold les paul,, nice guy
Mike Howe was still good back then like he was now but he will be missed R.I.P buddy you a legend we miss you dearly God bless you I miss you and my wife does too you are the one of the best singers of middle Church God bless you buddy R.I.P I'm glad I got to see you at the beaches see in Birmingham Alabama I have met you shook your hand gave you a hug when I was in my teens God bless you man you are the best singer about a church rest in peace may I see you in heaven
1986 Paradise in Boston Ma. Antrhax and Metal Church David Wayne blew the doors off the place with this song. This guy does a good job though, I would go see them.
I was introduced to the band through a late friend back in the early 90's, at the time i couldn't understand what and how i missed these guys. Essential records to own for any metal head!
1:58 XD Me ha emocionado ver a ese chaval tan entregado en el minuto 2 cantando la letra. (Aunque creo que entra tarde en el gritito en algún momento, jejeje) Ojalá le haya ido bien en la vida. (Han pasado casi 20 años). Quiero pensar que sí, que el rock and Roll (y sus variantes) sirve para enaltecer en cierto modo el espíritu, mantenerte crítico y con pensamiento propio, etc... Metal Church... pues los descubrí hace poco (a veces llego tarde, tardísimo). Pero es un gusto ver que un grupo legendario como este sigue sacando discos enormes años después y además manteniendo la edición y el sonido de antaño. Y en directo compruebo satisfecho y encantado que son buenísimos y que no pierden nada de chispa. Lo siento por los que no son capaces de disfrutar del Metal y del arte y prefieren seguir consumiendo "música" actual de esa sin alma ni talento ninguno. Dicen que somos lo que comemos.... Pues eso.... también pienso que somos lo que escuchamos. ¡Salud!
@motleydrue666 "Twang" vocal mode. This particular singer trained under the same person that trained Geoff Tate, Ann Wilson, Layne Staley, and Chris Cornell.
When the previous vocalist took his life I was shocked. My question and maybe no one can answer this....did he keep everything bottled up? I have to think that if his band mates knew the extent of his struggle they would have rallied around him. Suicide is so tragic and needs to be stopped.
No band can be metaller than Metal Church! Criminally underrated!
Yessir
I couldn't agree more!! Fuckin awesome band!!🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Never gets old , I probably listen to this once a week. Just because they are the real deal.
I Support Metal Church..100%
The kid in the Iced Earth shirt is what every metalhead should aspire to be.
@2:28 showing true faith
Yeah pisses me off when I see people's arms crossed at a metal show
Fuck yah bro!
He should be wearing CELTIC FROST OR KREATOR SHIIRT.
Hell yeah, that dude epitomizes Heavy Metal!!!
who came to rewatch that young metalhead
Great performance showing the late Kirk Arrington on drums. RIP Kirk you were one of the best.
The Best

@@r.d.hargrave8159Dude, he was a Master of the Skins!! Just listen to the Drum Tracks on Beyond The Black.. 'Nuff said!
I was just telling my sons about him! Dude had that beat, technic, everything! His playing on the first album “metal church” is insane, the start of “my favorite” nightmare is on fire!
I think metal church were the most underrated band of its time.hail metal church.lou csanko
Them and flotsam and jetsam too.
AMEN my friend!
The true fourth member of the Big Four, they earn it on album pedigree as first one was released in 1984 and unlike Joey of Anthrax, all Church singers could sing
Their debut album imo is one of the best metal albums ever made
Definitely one of the most underrated bands of that era and definitely over shadowed by Metallica who were on the same label at the time
That kid in the front row is fucking living it!!!!! That was me back in the day!!!!!!!
U shouting?
I'm seriously thinking of getting a shirt done with him on it 🤘sorry I'm 12 years late to reply 😆
That feeling of freedom, pure happiness and high on endorphins (along with a couple beers) in the front rows of your favourite bands playing is THE best feeling in the world.. hail metal 🤘🏻🕶️
This turns to be a very awesome performance…..love this
No kidding. Best I have ever seen.
People don't even know the vocal chords and strength it takes to sing at that level!!! Fuckin awesome 🤘🤘🤘🤘😎😎😎🔥🔥🔥🔥 Great job guys!!! Love Metal Church!!!
I love European concerts . They really are the ones who kept many of these bands alive by their rabid loyalty and appreciation.
European FANS are the best.
I wonder why the US cannot support like European people can?

@@freddyferrillo9704 just saw this. Sundance was the shit in the 80s!!! So many great shows
you saw or and found something you will never forget GOD bless all those
That metal fan was there to see Metal Church. Badass.
I would like to buy that kid in the iced earth shirt a beer for being a true fan!
Absolutely killer performance
you can see the faces. bewildered they realize that the first Metal Church album and THAT band started it all and they dont know how to react. and the kid upfront knows.....he knows...R.I.P David Wayne, Mike Howe, we love and miss the Church.. !!!!
Gods Of Wrath !!! Absolutely In The Top Five of all Metal Songs EVER!!!
This one of my fav. No matter who will singing, Metal Church still screaming!!
I bought metal church in 84 because it had a badass album cover. It blew me away I was 15
They still do badass album covers and more importantly they still do badass songs
David Wayne R.I.P.
🥺🥺🥺💔✨✨✨
Одна из любимых групп.
Awesome! I remember being a teenager when this song came out.
This guy with long curly hair all my childhood together scream for metal til death 🤘🤘🤘

I agree, this band gives 200% every time they hit the stage!! This was in my opinion the best live performance by Metal Church ive ever heard!! 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘

Love it. Much, Love Sister Sharon Johnston (JOYFUL TEARS, BOUNTIFULLY BLESSED, COMPASSIONATELY CARES)🙏🏻🔥👑🥀🌹🌷🌷💕
I've battle d drugs depression..but I found God and can sing again like ten muthfikkers 52 and strong
That was tight as hell.
03:18 the guy in the audience on the right; when you're so wasted that you are about to pass out but you're fighting an inner battle against it.
Good old years...with real classic songs being play by real musicians
super heavy duty
the best i have ever seen this song done.
holy shit what a metallic voice!!!!!!!!!!
YESSIREEE!
Epic battle cry!
Mike Howe was still good back then like he was now but he will be missed R.I.P buddy you a legend we miss you dearly God bless you I miss you and my wife does too you are the one of the best singers of middle Church God bless you buddy R.I.P I'm glad I got to see you at the beaches see in Birmingham Alabama I have met you shook your hand gave you a hug when I was in my teens God bless you man you are the best singer about a church rest in peace may I see you in heaven
what a perfect metalic voice!!!!!!
Just three letters...OMG!
Strong performance, and wicked screams! Love it.
Hands down one of the greatest performances ever
I’m surprised this doesn’t have millions of views
@@deathklaat8283 Can’t argue with the truth

Everytime he starts screaming in the beginning I have the uncontrollable urge to scream along with him.
BEST BAND EVER!!!
the best *-*
luv this band
this one right here belongs to the golden age of heavy metal... cheers o/ \o
Gods of Wrath!!!

This is an all time classic song and performance
This is the real metal music !!!!
INDEED!!!
Holy crap. dude's pipes insane. Live too. Bravo gents.

Este tema en mi top 3 de las mejores canciones del metal en todos sus subgéneros
love this band, they know how to rock!
These guys rock!!!!
***** Right on.
I love the final scream at 5:50 to really seal the deal. Stryper pulls that same trick.
All hail The Church!
The crowd,the atmosphere,and the music,is more like '85 than '05.
Just the stage that looks to modern for classic metal, the bass player has a great groove and he knows how to move!
Or 95
That's cuz they are 20 years behind us entertainment wise from hearsays of what is the cream of the crop
This dude blows away David an mike!! Amazeing.i guess when Mike left they hired him...great voice🇺🇸🇬🇧🇺🇦💪😎
Царствие Небесное хороший музыкант каких мало
They are so real and believable. I have yet to run into anybody who dislikes them
NOBODY !
i literally could not agree with you more! so underrated.....
WHAT A PERFORMANCE \m/!!!! and savatage shirt at 0:02
Hell yeah that dude at 2:28, he surely knows how to completly enjoy! To brate!
The power of music is truly amazing. Brings me back to my youth.......Love Metal Church
Sure. As latino we love metal to the core.
Phenomenal voice!!!!
Metal church is my favorite band, God's of wrath my favorite song. I own nothing with Ronny at vocals, but this version is excellent.
Got inntl Metal church back when i lived in Canada
Munroe kicks ass in this song.
Yes ...Much respect for Munroe's abilities .
Thanks so much. This takes me back. Really enjoyed it.
Time to Rock! What a great Tune and Band!!!
very love solo in this song
Yea, I hold 2 world records.... one from baseball, where I never pitched a ball, and where I never crashed a vehicle while being drunk'''
I love metal
@motleydrue666 "Twang" vocal mode. This particular singer trained under the same person that trained Geoff Tate, Ann Wilson, Layne Staley, and Chris Cornell.
What a fantastic performace
Love this song on it's own, but I really love watching the kid in the front row live the song! 🤘🤘
Love. Metal. Chuch
Very cool voice and riffs!!!!
best church singer yet!! Since David Wayne!!
respect to this guy with iced earth t-shirt...
Indeed
Fuck yah bro!
wanted to give him the mic and see what he has... love when singers do that....
Помню у них крутая тема есть Beyond the black
1:19min he really does David justics. WOW!!!
When the previous vocalist took his life I was shocked. My question and maybe no one can answer this....did he keep everything bottled up? I have to think that if his band mates knew the extent of his struggle they would have rallied around him. Suicide is so tragic and needs to be stopped.
Lovely song 🤘
I fucking love this performance,in the rain.This would put a smile on DAVID WAyNES FACE.Metal Church.Thrash Titans.Metal Lou Csanko 2018
In this church great vocal always
that singer is bad ass!!
