I was 18 when I deployed and had this happen. I was 23 when I met Garrett and got to share my story. Instead of seeking counseling, I was afraid to admit that I had taken a life. I talked to Garrett as a mentor and friend, but he asked if he could write about my struggles because he felt it would reach people. If not for Garrett, I would still struggle to this day. I'm not proud of my actions overseas, but I'm glad I could assist those that are hurting with the same guilt and pain.
Thank you for your service brother. I'm just a civilian with knowledge of military history. I just want to say I know people around you in america takes advantage of that freedom you and your fore-father's fought for but people like me we appreciate every minute because we know we could be like Russia or another country with a dictator
Sh1t Head given the news they started the video with, I don’t think they wanna approach that just yet my dude. It’s a gorgeous but very emotional song with difficult subject matter.
Rob, I'll be praying for you and your family brother. I love what you and Gauge do on this channel. I would love to hear your thoughts on Phinehas - know death; know forever
When you mention the “crimson tower”, I makes me think of when someone asks a vet how many people they have killed. That question sickens me. How about asking them how many people they have saved or simply thanking them for putting themselves where most men and women wouldn’t even dare to go.
Garret Has a video on youtube where he explains every song on this album. The idea behind the song, song titles and the artwork. Its amazingly beautiful.
Your perspective and comments on these reactions are always very insightful and well thought out. They mean a great deal to me. I'm so sorry that your wife is sick. Know that I appreciate what you do, and that you are always in my prayers. Keep up the great work and my God be with you.
Phinehas - Know Death, Know Forever. It's heavy with beautiful lyrics. God bless you guys and prayers for strength and a speedy recovery for your wife.
I was wondering why you haven’t posted in a while, but now that I know why, I completely understand. Take as long as you need for each future upload. And I admire the strength you have found in the LORD to continue this channel after such devastating news. I appreciate what you do with this channel :)
Man you guys are awesome. It's good to see you back! If you want a great new recommendation check out Shekinah by Saving Grace. Super heavy VERY christian band and lyrics. You'll love it.
Silent Planet is phenomenal, but I tend to avoid looking up what the lyrics mean because Garrett's poetry has a kind of magic to it when left ambiguous.
You're incredibly strong. I'm very proud of you for being able to still make videos despite the circumstances and I'm wishing Kristy a speedy recovery. I believe everything will be perfect in the end. Good luck with everything!
Panic room is like the beginning of apocalypse now. It's amazing and terrifying that Sheen was drunk and had a real mental breakdown on set. This and silent planet's song are probably the most PTSD like feelings and emotions you will experience through modern media. Fascinating and terrifying
You guys should listen to listen to happiness or inspire the liars by dance Gavin dance. Happiness from what I've heard is either about his ex girlfriend drowning or a neglectful mother's daughter drowning and inspire the liars is about religion. Happiness is really sad.
Haha I just realized I went to the same concert! That concert was the first I’ve ever heard of Silent Planet and now I’m in love with them and they have some of my favorite songs and Lyrics! Great video 😁
Shit man I was about to write finally and shit. But damn that news hit hard. I’m at a loss for words. Boy did I love how much you enjoyed that song and your reactions! That was nothing short of fantastic; as is the band
Interestingly the song was written about a friend of the band who is a vet and suffers from PTSD. It’s such a powerful song and makes me well up every time.
Silent planet are beautiful and im glad you enjoyed them! Anything reasonbly recent by Architects is super releveant to your situation and may help alot.
Pastor Robert, me and my family have been praying for you ever since i found out about your wife, i pray that The Lord gives you peace about all this going on. God bless you in Jesus' name! And could you react to more Demon hunter? Songs like "I Will Fail You" would be nice! And also amazing song!!! Gave me chills like crazy during the second verse!
I’d love to see your reaction to Ill mind of Hopsin 7. He was/wasn’t/is a Christian and you can hear his mind debating and his anger with our Lord in that song.
Another fun fact: The Depths trilogy are the only songs he has written about himself, and his battle with bipolar disorder, depression, and suicidal struggles. Depths III made me WEEP. ALSO, Garrett does track-by-track analyses of all their songs on YT. I’d HIGHLY recommend watching them. I’m very grateful he takes the time to do those. Thanks again for the vids!
First of all: Praying for your wife/mom !! Vocalist said something happened to his gut on the rehearsal session for this tour that felt like someone was stabbing him with the knife and continued through out this tour and had stomach acid reflux on top of that, but he managed to tour for 51days. P.S. You finally experienced HOMEWORK CORE :D !!!
@@roberthoughton7127 Vocalist has Bachelor’s Degree in English, Bachelor’s Degree in Philosophy and Master’s Degree in Psychology, so no wonder homework is needed 😂
Hey there! Big fan, would you react and analyze "Immaculate Misconception" by Motionless in White? (You may want to have captions on) I love seeing your perspective and seeing what you guys (and your guests) think of the meanings behind the songs, and this one is a pretty dark one, but I'd love to hear what you say about it!
Really love all the reaction videos. For any recommendations could I say these: Crossfaith- Catastrophe or The Perfect Nightmare NF- Leave Me Alone Skillet- Monster or Save Me Underoath- Rapture Stryper- The Valley or God Damn Evil Metallica- Master of Puppets Death Therapy- My Defiance
If you like the aggressive spoken-word style, then you need to review some Project 86. I would suggest either: - When Darkness Rains (th-cam.com/video/n_EZFe4Xbug/w-d-xo.html) - Chapter 2 (th-cam.com/video/zIRGIvVjDcw/w-d-xo.html) - Open Hand (th-cam.com/video/EBrN2Esxz4Q/w-d-xo.html) or - Fall Goliath, Fall (th-cam.com/video/aKGtfOrtJ1s/w-d-xo.html)
...Oh, also this is happening so much on other pages I enjoy, but when I click on "ALL NOTIFICATIONS" ~/- When I click to see it saved, it is on the middle again for some reason. I like your channel and content, and it sucks that is happening. -/~ I can only share it when I see it! (LOVE)
Rather than adding to all the awesome comments about Silent Planet, I’ll give ya a fun fact! Garrett (SP vocalist) was battling with horrific acid reflux, among other problems, throughout the 10 Years of Constellations tour. Was fortunate enough to meet him after their show in Detroit, and he actually asked me to pray for him. He said it was getting to point of him not being able to breathe (obviously a HUGE PROBLEM for a metal vocalist haha). Only by the power of the Holy Spirit was he able to make it through that tour. No other explanation. They’re my favorite band, and I have a deep respect and brotherly love for Garrett. Thanks for the vid!!
I’ve been a huge fan of Silent Planet for many years now. I’ve seen them live a couple of times, and Garrett and the rest of the band always put their all into every performance. Garret’s ability to use poetry, science, history, faith, psychology, and word play in his songs baffles me. He’s a huge inspiration to me. Thanks for featuring them!!
I haven’t seen anyone comment about this yet. Garrett (the lead vocalist) holds a masters degree in Clinical Psychology.
That would make so much sense given the content of the album this comes from - PTSD, Anorexia, etc.
It really shows, too. Many of the lyrics are absolutely unsettling. Even as an avid metal lover.
not just one i think
if i remember correctly he also has a degree in English? maybe? I feel like I read that somewhere. He wanted to be a teacher originally.
@@jck1794 i think he has a ba in english and philosophy
I was 18 when I deployed and had this happen. I was 23 when I met Garrett and got to share my story. Instead of seeking counseling, I was afraid to admit that I had taken a life. I talked to Garrett as a mentor and friend, but he asked if he could write about my struggles because he felt it would reach people. If not for Garrett, I would still struggle to this day.

Jeriel Clark Bless you man. God will use this to reach others.
god bless you brother 🖤
You are not alone brother USMC 2002-2007. Im glad you found an outlet for your pain so that you can heal from the wounds of our war.
Would love to chat with you sometime
Thank you for your service brother. I'm just a civilian with knowledge of military history. I just want to say I know people around you in america takes advantage of that freedom you and your fore-father's fought for but people like me we appreciate every minute because we know we could be like Russia or another country with a dictator
Silent Planet is on another level, lyrically. All of their songs have so much depth and truth in them.
Kevin Fitz So true that’s why they are my favorite
Have you ever heard of... Northlane 🤔
@@almaudo3 I have. They don't hold my interest though.
Silent planet is great! Do more reactions of them.
RedivideR!
@@AbitOverkilI Love that song.
I think you would enjoy reacting to the song doomsday by architects.
Sh1t Head given the news they started the video with, I don’t think they wanna approach that just yet my dude. It’s a gorgeous but very emotional song with difficult subject matter.
mmmm architects
Or broken cross
Holy hell is without question- one of the most beautifully painful masterpieces of cathartic emotion evoking lyrics out there.
@@jakediertay4711 that entire album is thought provoking and some of the best lyrics written recently
Rob, I'll be praying for you and your family brother. I love what you and Gauge do on this channel. I would love to hear your thoughts on Phinehas - know death; know forever
Know death know forever is a must!
Depths II by Silent Planet. If you don’t feel something reading those lyrics, you’re not human.
Top 3 favs by them top 10 fav songs of all team
Depths III is more moving
When you mention the “crimson tower”, I makes me think of when someone asks a vet how many people they have killed. That question sickens me. How about asking them how many people they have saved or simply thanking them for putting themselves where most men and women wouldn’t even dare to go.
I think y'all would like oh sleeper. Give them a try. Pretty much any song will work.
I second that
I couldn't agree more!
Bro yes! That would be amazing!
And Saving grace or sleeping giant
Yesss!!! Oh sleeper is great!!
Garret Has a video on youtube where he explains every song on this album. The idea behind the song, song titles and the artwork. Its amazingly beautiful.
Jeremy Dycus I think he's done this with every album they have too!
Can you provide a link or something
@@JesusChristcousingreg search "silent planet track by track" on YT
26:47 AMEN! THANK YOU! prayers for you and your wife 🙏❤️
Can you react to oblivion by fit for a king. Please. Their a Christian metal core band.
Yes please!
great song and music video too
Ryan's screams in that song are so emotional that it is one of my favorite fit for a king songs now
@@jasonsmitherman9182 agreed man! Actually, it is my favorite song!
I love FFAK!!
Your perspective and comments on these reactions are always very insightful and well thought out. They mean a great deal to me. I'm so sorry that your wife is sick. Know that I appreciate what you do, and that you are always in my prayers. Keep up the great work and my God be with you.
Ill be praying for you guys, god bless, you should react to no ordinary love by memphis may fire
React to Silent Planet - Depths ll (be sure to read the footnotes of the song in the description)
Connor Klassen and Depths III which is my personal favorite out all three of the Depths songs
I’m close friends with Jeriel, the man who’s testimony inspired this song.
Phinehas - Know Death, Know Forever. It's heavy with beautiful lyrics. God bless you guys and prayers for strength and a speedy recovery for your wife.
Literally any song by phinehas
Another great video. Sir, I'd love it if you reacted to La Dispute - King Park. Your thoughts on the ending would be amazing.
They have a song called “Visible unseen” that’s worth checking out, too.
Please please listen to more of silent planet they are so good also please react to la dispute king park I would love to see your reaction
#prayforkristy praying for you guys. Great to see father and son enjoying something together, especially within this time of stress.
I think Garrett has had some problems with his vocal cords during his recent tour. That may be why. Amazing artist and philosopher
Garrett made a post talking about it on his Instagram. It's a lengthy post, but he talks about quite a bit in it.
correct he was having an issue with his throat but he seems to be improving from what i've seen in his posts.
Yeah I was at that orlando show. He was visibily hurt
Silent Planet are awesome. Phenomenal band. Please do more Silent Planet reaction videos.
Prayers for you and your wife Robert. Prayers for your families.
I was wondering why you haven’t posted in a while, but now that I know why, I completely understand. Take as long as you need for each future upload.

Man you guys are awesome. It's good to see you back! If you want a great new recommendation check out Shekinah by Saving Grace. Super heavy VERY christian band and lyrics. You'll love it.
A react to dead choir by phinehas would be amazing. It's been a long time favorite of mine
MYB1GBULL3T anything by Phinehas, they're amazing lol
I love watching your face light up like a little kid when you start getting into the song.
Love your channel. 1 Peter 4:12-13
I recommend "Feed the Machine" by RED.
Silent Planet is phenomenal, but I tend to avoid looking up what the lyrics mean because Garrett's poetry has a kind of magic to it when left ambiguous.
This band is something so special. I cry every time with this song.
You guys should totally do something from Fit For a King! Like, Slave to Nothing, Warpath, Shattered Glass, or Deathgrip. 🤘🏻
You're incredibly strong. I'm very proud of you for being able to still make videos despite the circumstances and I'm wishing Kristy a speedy recovery. I believe everything will be perfect in the end. Good luck with everything!
You should definitely react to a song called “Despise” by a band called “Spite”
hahahahah uh oh
They are a solid Christian group. That song is about despising sin!
@@Whopperwhopper420 spite is Christian??
Deathgrip by Fit for a King ❤️
Garrett has a master's degree in Psychology. He was going to get a Ph.D but dropped out to pursue music full-time
P.s thanks for the shout-out
He also has a ba in english and philosophy, the man is stupidly well educated. I think hes also doing theology as well
React to the Band Impending Doom song Deceiver Official Video. A MUST WATCH!!!
Please do nf's new album. Praying for you and your family!
thomas melton I second this comment! NFs new album is sooo good. And deep dude..
Please please please LISTEN TO “Salt & Light” by August Burns Red! Please just please
Nice When Forever Ends Shirt dude! Those boys are awesome live!
The Underground indeed they are!
Anything Northlane please!
You guys should definitely react to oblivion from fit for a king.
Please react to Tool - Pneuma. Its just jaw dropping lyricaly and musically
Panic room is like the beginning of apocalypse now. It's amazing and terrifying that Sheen was drunk and had a real mental breakdown on set. This and silent planet's song are probably the most PTSD like feelings and emotions you will experience through modern media. Fascinating and terrifying
I love you guys. Thanks for making these awesome videos. I’ll be praying for your family.
Do life is beautiful by sixx am 2017 edition PLEASE
I think you would enjoy Meridian or Marianas Trench by August Burns Red🤘🏻
Silent Planet is amazing!
My prayers for your family pastor.
Brazil here!
You should do Suicide Silence - Unanswered or Thy Art is Murder - Lightbearer
Depths III by Silent Planet is such a powerful song that I think you would enjoy. Also First Born by silent planet
You guys should listen to listen to happiness or inspire the liars by dance Gavin dance. Happiness from what I've heard is either about his ex girlfriend drowning or a neglectful mother's daughter drowning and inspire the liars is about religion. Happiness is really sad.
Can you do Meshuggah "Dancers to a discordant system" Great song with great lyrics to it.
Bleed
@@lecareymitchelliii9008 they already did bleed
Sorry about your wife/mum guys, please react to the song Spiritual Healing by Death.

Shit man I was about to write finally and shit. But damn that news hit hard. I’m at a loss for words.
Boy did I love how much you enjoyed that song and your reactions! That was nothing short of fantastic; as is the band
2 suggestions for songs to react to:
Two ships - oh, sleeper
RediVider - silent planet
Two Ships is one of my faves off of B/U. It flies under the radar.
@@Spencerimbrock its got a great buildup and when the power vocals come its chilling. Solid lyrically aswell
Interestingly the song was written about a friend of the band who is a vet and suffers from PTSD. It’s such a powerful song and makes me well up every time.
No ordinary love, Memphis mayfire. Continuous prayers for the fam!!!
Words Darker Than Their Wings by Alter Bridge live at Royal Albert Hall
Silent planet are beautiful and im glad you enjoyed them!
Anything reasonbly recent by Architects is super releveant to your situation and may help alot.
Absolutely. R.I.P. Tom
Hear hear! Architects FTW. Doomsday, Broken Cross, Gravity, Match Made In Heaven - any of those would be great to see
Please react to A Reason to Fight by Disturbed!!
Nubes lol
Welcome to the hardcore/underground scene😂
No hate, I'm glad people are getting into metalcore
3 seconds into the video and pastor Robs got the pen ready!!! Hah!!
Please react to the new As I lay Dying stuff. Ithink you'll have some interesting thoughts on it
Yeeesss
Maybe some of the New stuff. As I lay dying-shaped by fire/my own grave
Becoming the archetype! Amazing band. Unique sound and good message. I would recommend Requiem aeternam part 1, 2, and 3
You should do Into Despair by Currents next. Similar to this song but better imo.
React to HereAfter by Architects. Beautiful song.
Ok up next. Save me-Avenged sevenfold. IMMEDIATELY
Motionless in White - Immaculate Misconception
Look in their description a lot of the versed he got from the Bible
You should react to as I lay dying--my own grave. It would make a good conversation and its a very good song
Considering it's October now I was hoping you guys might want to do a reaction video for Avenged Sevenfold's "A Little Piece of Heaven".
Dude sounds like Mattie Montgomery
Pastor Robert, me and my family have been praying for you ever since i found out about your wife, i pray that The Lord gives you peace about all this going on. God bless you in Jesus' name!
And could you react to more Demon hunter? Songs like "I Will Fail You" would be nice!
And also amazing song!!! Gave me chills like crazy during the second verse!
I’d love to see your reaction to Ill mind of Hopsin 7. He was/wasn’t/is a Christian and you can hear his mind debating and his anger with our Lord in that song.
Do ORPHAN by silent planet. It talks a lot about the parallels between Christianity and Islam - I think you guys would dig it.
Thomas Judge one of my favorite songs by Silent Planet🙌🙌 I would love if they reacted to that one
Do Hail To The King by Avenged Sevenfold
React to Oh sleeper - marriage of steel and skin! or Oh sleeper - Hush yael
Fissure... or The Island by Oh sleeper
Garret is one of the best performers, and writers, in metal period
Check out The Anatomy of Time (Babel)

If you like the aggressive spoken-word style, then you need to review some Project 86. I would suggest either:
