the title 953 comes from the ending of the song where they play the main riff sped up. they play it for 9 bars, and then a break, then 5 bars, then a break, then 3 bars, then a break
This was the band at their youngest. They recorded this album when they were all 19 years old and Greeps voice was the most maniac and insane it'll ever be in his career. These guys haven't made a single bad album. Also the reason why their sound changed so much because their second guitarist Matt, left the band in mid or late 2020 i dont remember. But songs like John L and Chondromalacia Patella were made while Matt was in the band. Also Matt was the vocalist for Years Ago
So glad you did this, knocknarea by Maruja is a crazy ep that came out this year, they got one of the brightest futures along with black midi and bcnr in my opinion
the guy you talked about screaming is cam who’s also the bassist, the other vocalist is geordie who also plays the guitar and idek how his brain works to be able to play like that and sing these complex ass lyrics at the same time, especially on songs like the race is about to begin
You might like the Queens of the Stone Age album "Songs For The Deaf." It was one of the biggest rock albums of the 2000s and it's epic. Some real insanity on that album
@@th3om1r4o agree about ...Like Clockwork, hard disagree about Songs For The Deaf. The title track and Mosquito Song are some of the best moments on the album
953 is one of my favorite album openers. It just throws you right in. Concubine by Converge and Only Shallow by My Bloody Valentine are album openers that do the same very well.
when I saw black midi in concert they opened with 953. it's the perfect opener of this album and to their music in general. love this album and loving your channel 💯
Appreciate the black midi reactions 🙏 an album I think you should check out is Thrak by King Crimson. I know it's been a bit since you've done a KC reaction and rightfully so, need variety, but this is from their 90s era where it had it's biggest studio lineup to date, 6 members. The album is like a mix of the heaviness of the 70s like the Red Album and a mix of the playful and experimental writing from 80s albums. Check it out if you'd like!
honestly bro you should try your hand at a metal album, i suggest dopethrone, pure aggression distilled into one of the rawest hardest hitting and loudest albums that still knows how to get into a groove
Most consistent and best reactor on youtube. I'll gladly show support if you start a patreon, my man. Recommendation: The Wonder Years - The Greatest Generation
i know you usually listen to more alternative albums here, but have you ever heard who made the sunshine by westside gunn? there are definitely some bangers on there
69th like. Nice. Some other albums for your consideration: Animal Collective: Strawberry Jam Animal Collective: Centipede Hz. Animal Collective: Time Skiffs Brand New: Science Fiction 🍻
Love the videos man🙏 I suggest listening to Radiohead's 2000 album "Kid A". It's a mix of alt rock and electronics and is one of my favorite albums of all time. You should totally check it out!
Can you do volcanic bird enemy and the voiced concern by lil ugly mane! The writing on that album is genius and the production is really unique and creative with lots of interesting sounds all over it
Bro was really starting to sound like a Black Midi fan at 6:41

i hope that when matt comes back they'll make another album like schlagenheim, its their best album by far and matt did say he would be back soon
Still my favourite black midi album of all three..bmbmbm never fails to work.
So glad you did this, knocknarea by Maruja is a crazy ep that came out this year, they got one of the brightest futures along with black midi and bcnr in my opinion
i second this comment, so far my favorite porject of this year. get into them before they get huge
yessss maruja knocknarea !!!!!!!!
Years ago is sung by a third person named Matt who left after this first album

Fire album we need a reaction from the consistency king 😭
This and Like Clockwork. Both masterpieces
He’d love Like Clockwork, that album is a true masterpiece. Songs For The Deaf kinda dies down in the second half.
@@th3om1r4o agree about ...Like Clockwork, hard disagree about Songs For The Deaf. The title track and Mosquito Song are some of the best moments on the album
You’re the GOAT…keep up the good work. Always look forward to your videos.
Thank!
The consistency is off the charts
Suggestion: Marquee Moon by Television
this album been on repeat since release man every song is an absolute classic. also bmbmbm is such a banger
this is a gift from god . Awesome
side note: hoping you hop into some Death Grips at some point

Queens of the stone age - Song for the dead album you would 100% love and enjoy. Its one of the best rock albums of the 2000s and one of my favorites.
schlagenheim? more like SCHLONGenheim! hahaha am i right my friends?
also good reaction as always mr. smags
😂

Would love to see you listen to Yellow Swans - Going Places
This right here is the pinnacle of consistency 🔥
Suggestions (Of course):
System of a Down: Toxicity
Bloc party: Silent Alarm
yeessss toxicity !!!!!
insane album, probably my favorite of theirs
also great video as always
so magnificent!
it would be so funny if reggae was actually called penis yeah
Ong been saying this
Eyyy Mr. Consistency. You should do Yellow Swans - Going Places considering they just reunited for the first time in 15 years.
Can I make a call for Bright Green Field by Squid to complete the Black Midi Country New Squid triumvirate?

Recommendation: The Wonder Years - The Greatest Generation
He should really start a patreon
They make albums that are so sonically interesting that you just can’t stop listening
7\ If you ever do get around to "...I Care Because You Do" by Aphex Twin you should listen to the bonus tracks, especially "Sekonda"
Could I suggest a Brit indie rock classic in Echo & The Bunnymen's 'Ocean Rain'.
he needa hop off this black midi and get on that bjork midi again
i know you usually listen to more alternative albums here, but have you ever heard who made the sunshine by westside gunn? there are definitely some bangers on there
lets go!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! this album a top 3 for me lets gooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
69th like. Nice.
Some other albums for your consideration:
Animal Collective: Strawberry Jam
Animal Collective: Centipede Hz.
Animal Collective: Time Skiffs
Brand New: Science Fiction
🍻
Please do “songs” by Adrienne lenker
Need more experimental hip hop reaction.. My suggestion : By the Time I Get to Phoenix by Injury Reserve
what a treat
The language at the end of Years Ago is Polish.
Apparently this is a hot take among black midi fans but imo this album blows their other two out of the water.
Love the videos man🙏 I suggest listening to Radiohead's 2000 album "Kid A". It's a mix of alt rock and electronics and is one of my favorite albums of all time. You should totally check it out!
Black Metal by Dean Blunt when 😢
Is that the move
@@smags1082 yup
already????
what headphones do you use?
another daily reminder to listen to ma hill by incredible polo
"I'm thinking this might be kind of a reggae song" I don't think it was kind of a reggae song
You should try Songs to Yeet at the Sun by Soul Glo
953 is top 10 album openers oat
hey i highly recommend u listen to preacher's daughter by ethel cain! one of the best albums ever.
boutta fuck up some pad thai and watch this WOO
you should listen to first utterance by comus
Can you do volcanic bird enemy and the voiced concern by lil ugly mane! The writing on that album is genius and the production is really unique and creative with lots of interesting sounds all over it
trout mask replica reaction? 😳
I was just thinking the very same thing! Some of this is very Trout Mask Replica.

LeColin late to comment as always
