The singer Austin Carlisle (no longer in the band) now has the disease that look his mother's life. He has had heart procedures, many surgeries, cancelled tours, many many ups and downs. They made it pretty big, even touring with big names like Slipknot, Marilyn Manson, and Linkin Park. They're still together and doing well with their new singer, but had a different feel with Austin. Hoping you react to more Of Mice & Men!
They were so special with Austin, were my favourite Band for like 3 years.. but since he left, I can't listen to anything new. just feels wrong. It's still good, don't get me wrong. Just not the same. Still hits hard
@@lenapuschel I agree they were my favorite band all through HS and Austin is one of the kindest hearted humans there is but there new stuff is fantastic but it's a different band without him
yes pure passion. but yeah his disease Marfan Syndrome is keeping him from doing his passion in singing. read somewhere he's a baseball coach now somewhere in Costa Rica. Hope he can come back to singing from time to time
For a scream! A lot of screaming vocals kind of can get bland sounding or just like a wall of noise sometimes but he has such a distinctive tone and inflection on it you just feel it so much more than others. Wild
I was just thinking the same thing! his smile when shay's voice hit him along with the guitar harmonies. a moment i'll never forget, because it was the first metalcore band i ever heard.
When I was 17 my mother and I were both struggling with depression and she had directly told me she wish she would die. I had instantly grabbed my phone and played this song with the lyrics. It had helped us see life in a new way, even though I had heard this song a million times the lyrics clicked on a deeper level in the love for ones mother. Every time for the last 5 years this song makes me tear up and gives me goosebumps. This song saved my mother and I.
Austin had to leave because his screaming was creating tears in his spinal cord in his neck (probably the most metal injury ever) but it's actually because of Marfan syndrome, it weakens the entire body and prevents it from healing. The clean vocalist here also is no longer in the band, he sang for Dayshell Then Jamie's Elsewhere frontman Pauley joined OM&M as a clean vocalist but since Austin's departure, he took on the task of screaming as well and their new songs are pretty good, but I loved Austin since Attack Attack so Of Mice & Men is not the same to me, still good but Austin's vocals are just unique and amazing
Dude don't know if you know or not but lead singer from falling in reverse was watching your reaction to popular monster. Just thought you'd like to know, he liked your reaction.
I LOVE Of Mice & Men. One of the best bands in Metalcore because they got the perfect mix of emotions, heaviness and deep lyrics. And Austin, hands down, is one of the most loveable persons in the business. Alex, PLEASE check out "Another you". I think this is THE goosebumps song. Nothing but love to this track.
Shayley had one of the most amazing clean voices I’ve ever heard an absolutely beautiful voice I love Aaron but still go back to the old stuff from time to time and am still blown away
@@banksy6511Dayshell it's very good but i feel like Shayley by himself it's not very good with the melodies, i think that he need someone to guide him.
3:57 I have the exact same reaction every time I listen to this part of the song. Shay’s voice is so unique, gets me every time with all the emotions he’s able to capture and express through his vocals
PLEASE DO “Don’t go” by bring me the horizon. It’s actually about a real murder that happened, you’ll have to look it up but the meaning behind the song is so sad and scary
I lost my mom when I was 16. This song makes me think of her. Especially “come back so I can say thank you for this. Home cooked meals and a place to rest my troubled head.” I’m getting teary eyed right now.
I’m happy you made a reaction to one of my favorite songs. I lost my Mom when I was eight years old, the last line always makes my chest heavy. It’s hard to go through, but I’m happy you gave the viewers words of comfort. You’re so on point with actually reacting and being involved with fans Alex, it’s great.
Shay works hard and has been through a lot to get where he is. Hrs one of my favorite vocalists, and a good friend. Keep supporting him and spreading the word! I know this isnt about Dayshell or Shay, but he works too hard to go unrecognized
He sounds unique. He’s got a nice high voice that parallels anyone else in the genre, but it has so much depth and he slots his notes very precisely. New fan here!
I dont wanna be that guy but the person doing the singing in this song is actually Shayley Bourget. Austin only did the screaming. Shayley is now in a band called Dayshell, i advise you to check them out.
Of Mice & Men was one of the bands that I listened to the most in my teenage years, I'm glad you reacted to them Alex🤟🏼 More suggestions: O.G. Loko Product of a murderer You make me sick Bones exposed Identity disorder This one's for you The depths Never giving up And now newer songs (w/o Austin Carlile) Unbreakable Gravedancer Mushroom Cloud Warzone If we were ghosts
@@liambarrett2638 I love most of their songs. The new stuff is great, and I even like songs from Cold World. I tried to give some varied recommendations tho including some tracks that I think deserve more exposure (like identify disorder)
Alonso Ponce yeah that’s understandable. I think I like every single song they have put out apart from some on Cold World. I still like some of them on that album though
I lost my mother at 7 tragically. It destroyed my world. I definitely related with this song and it’s awesome seeing somebody react to it and feel the emotion. Rock on
I remember when I heard this song for the very first time and it's just such an incredible song. It made me cry like a river bro, this song truly just hits home. This band is just so amazing!!
What you said was so accurate the “stuff like that makes us stronger” I lost my mother when I was 14 and never had my dad in my life. It teaches you to grow up quick. You don’t really have that time to make errors knowing they’ll always be there for you.
Yep, knew this would come and it was hard. My Mum passed last year and she was amazing. She loved Christmas too so it's even harder at the moment. Love the song, always is a tough listen but a great album. Merry Christmas Alex, have a great one!
Dude, you need to check out Adept! It’s a Swedish metalcore band, and i can guarantee you’ll love them. The song: Black Veins is the best song I’ve ever heard. It’s got sick breakdowns, awsome guitar riffs, beautiful clean vocals and you can feel your body just building up energy as the song goes along. Would love to see your reaction to it. You’d probably fall out of your chair lol
Twelve Foot Ninja... One Hand killing. This band is like if Of Mice and Men and Faith No More had a baby. You will ABSOLUTELY dig it Alex.. Their vids are HILARIOUS!! Please give them a chance🙏
One thing I love about your channel is that it reignites the love I had for songs like this from when I was younger. Keep it up! You should check out Monolith by Crossfaith, it's kinda up this alley and you might like it!
Im so glad i got to see of mice & men with austin as the singer some years ago. they came to st pete fl with a day to remember and what a badass concert that was
My dad died 6 years ago on Christmas and this is one of the songs that I hold dearest to my heart and it’s so crazy that you posted a reaction to this song. Been watching you for so long.
One of my favorite song from them, this part where he starts screaming "COME BACK..." hits me hard as well as I've lost my father when I was 10. He's right, I often asked if he'll be proud of me or if he's smiling watching over me. I feel like I'm over it now but still sometimes shits happen and it reminds me of this.
When I learned to appreciate screams more I ended up really liking this song. I can also relate to the song because my mom left my Dad and me when I was young because she was unfaithful. I’m a drummer and a big reason why I like it is because I could tell quickly the amount of skill and enjoyment in playing this song.
Bro I'm begging you check out Fit for a King-"The Price of Agony" I know persistence pays off because I suggested fire from the gods over a year. Don't sleep on this one man! You'll love it!
The funny thing about this first album by them is that it was rushed. The vocals were quickly recorded and pasted onto the instruments. And it came out like fucking gold. Love it
I cry everytime I hear this song let alone watching the music video. The lyrics and video hits me like "all fathers were young boys with youthful dreams once in their life" and at his death bed, I saw it in my father's eyes and I was like "if only i could give you back and make you experience again the youth you had Papa". No! I'm not crying.. You are!
I've heard this song so many times, yet Every time I listen to it I almost cry. I've only ever heard amazing things about Austin by people who have met him. I love him so much 😭😭
Definitely should react to Of Mice and Men's song called "You're Not Alone". Makes me think of you as a person Alex, always trying to make everyone that watches you be positive and keep on keeping on. Thank you for everything you do, and have yourself a Merry Christmas
I lost my mom 4 years ago and it ridiculously hard and I am 42. I couldn't imagine it at 17. And Alex, the fact that your dad hasn't been around for so long and he may or may not be proud of you, I know the rest of your family are and so are your followers. Keep up the great work.
Starset- my demons. Red- pieces. BMTH- suicide season. August burns red-cutting the ties. Shadow of intent- the heretic prevails. We came as romans- to move on is to grow. Crown the empire- machines. The ghost inside- faith or forgiveness. Breaking benjamin-angels fall. Linkin park-iridescent. Parkway drive- carrion. Emmure- we were just kids. Funeral for a friend-roses for the dead. It goes on and on :)
Great reaction. A good one to checkout is "When a demon defiles a witch" by Whitechapel. Phil Bozeman the lead vocalist had a very messed up childhood losing both of his parents.
One of the best concert memories I have came from this song. It was warped tour, oh I don’t know, 8 years ago? The song ended and asked to sing the ending one more time. There’s music playing all around you, but all you could hear was a couple hundred people screaming that at the top of their lungs with Austin. Still gives me goosebumps!
If you like that kinds of stuff you should check out White Light by The Ghost Inside. It's about the Singers younger brother who just unexpectedly passed away in his sleep a couple of years ago.
I love that you're finally reacting to some of my favorite songs from back in the day between this & king for a day, here are some things I think you might like from bands that saw their peak between 2007 and 2013 in this post hardcore kind of area. Hope you'll check some of them out. DRUGS - "Sex Life" and "If you think this song is about you it probably is" Sleeping with Sirens - "If I'm James Dean, you're Audrey Hepburn" and "If You Can't Hang" Pierce the Veil - "Caraphernelia" and "Bulletproof Love" and "Today I Saw The Whole World" A Day to Remember - "Mr. Highway's thinking about the end" and "2nd Sucks" Like Moths to Flames - "GNF" and "You'll Burn" and "Nowhere Left to Sink" and "All That You Lost" Chiodos - "The words Best Friend become redefined" and "Baby you wouldn't last a minute on the creek"
I saw om&m live at warped tour and saw Austin. I cried cause I loved that band with bmth ptv etc. Those bands helped me recover, helped me grow up and have someone I could just listen to and feel better. That I'm not alone. This song makes me cry cause I hear Austin's pain and he's an inspiration to me.
I liked the video before it started that's how much I love of mice and men. You definitely need to react to them more!!!!! Keep up the great work Alex.
Second and Sebring is one of my favorite of Mice & Men song!!! To my luck I got to see them before Austins departure and after. Both Austin and Aaron have done a fantastic job as lead singers!
He's no longer the vocalist of OM&M, Austin is suffering from a genetic disease transmitted from his mom (she already died)... Hope you react to Blessthefall.
I actually know Austin the singer he goes to my church! After he got Marfan syndrome everytime he would perform it would take a huge toll on his health so he ended up having to leave the band. He then actually became saved (became Christian) and started going to my church. He is such an amazing guy with an amazing testimony.
So glad I was able to see Of Mice and Men live when Austin was still in the band. Although they are still good without him, some songs just won't be the same
ive been listening to this song for years and only for the first time have i looked up the lyrics to it. Ive never been more broken over a song in my life, it really hits home. January 1st of 2017 my dad went into the hospital (just 6 days after i turned 14) and he was there for almost 11 months before eventually passing away. He missed all of my highschool years and the struggle that was, me getting my first job, my graduation and so much more, this song does a beautiful job of putting what that feels like into words. nothing shy of a 10/10

@@boneless9305 i feel listening to new mice n men is disrespectful to austin , i hope he finds good health
I relate to this song very deeply.i lost my mom to sclerosis when i was 22. She was only 41.i havent drank in four years because of it.
I love Austin’s scream. The emotion and pain he puts out, insane
Shame He is gone from metal scenery
yes pure passion. but yeah his disease Marfan Syndrome is keeping him from doing his passion in singing. read somewhere he's a baseball coach now somewhere in Costa Rica. Hope he can come back to singing from time to time
For a scream! A lot of screaming vocals kind of can get bland sounding or just like a wall of noise sometimes but he has such a distinctive tone and inflection on it you just feel it so much more than others. Wild
I’m legitimately jealous of you, watching you experiencing this masterpiece of a song for the first time

♥️ God Bless you guys 🙏🏽
Music heals
respect brother, mothers are our world
When You Can't Sleep At Night is basically one of the best metalcore ballads of all time. Shayley's voice is unreal.
It honestly is the most beautiful song in my opinion.
Shayley's masterpiece
It’s not a metalcore song so how is it a metalcore ballad, just an acoustic song…
@@Star.Chaser genre: post-hardcore/metalcore
style: acoustic
Austin and Shayley together were absolutely unbeatable. Sad that it's gone...
As much as I love new OM&M, Shayley + Austin were just vocally insane together.
Sadly that is something that no longer exists. 😢
Austin had to leave because his screaming was creating tears in his spinal cord in his neck (probably the most metal injury ever) but it's actually because of Marfan syndrome, it weakens the entire body and prevents it from healing.
The clean vocalist here also is no longer in the band, he sang for Dayshell
Then Jamie's Elsewhere frontman Pauley joined OM&M as a clean vocalist but since Austin's departure, he took on the task of screaming as well and their new songs are pretty good, but I loved Austin since Attack Attack so Of Mice & Men is not the same to me, still good but Austin's vocals are just unique and amazing
Yes, finally. Someone mentioned about Shayley and Dayshell. I love OM&M new stuff, but I still miss Austin.
I thought I recognized his scream. Didn't know he was in Attack Attack. Makes sense now
Shayley does everything in day she’ll now if I understand correctly
T.J. Hargrove Mr Pain is easily one of my top 5 albums of the year
He still does Dayshell
Not gonna lie. This song and the music video bring me to tears every time. Love you Mom
I know man I went this when my mom passed two years ago and it gave a whole new interpretation of what he was feeling.
Same bro
Parkway Drive - Carrion
August Burns Red - White Washed
As I Lay Dying - Blinded
You got taste my friend! Lol
i can back this
Parkway Drive - Home is For The Heartless is a good song too :)
@@NovakRxtten Wild Eyes is a favorite
You sir are a champion

And the singer is Ronnie Radke

I LOVE Of Mice & Men. One of the best bands in Metalcore because they got the perfect mix of emotions, heaviness and deep lyrics. And Austin, hands down, is one of the most loveable persons in the business.
Alex, PLEASE check out "Another you". I think this is THE goosebumps song. Nothing but love to this track.
YESSSSSSS I FULLY SECOND THIS ANOTHER YOU IS SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO GOOD OMG i honestly cry every time I hear it please react to it 😭😭😭😭
Caitlin Baker inii
Shayley had one of the most amazing clean voices I’ve ever heard an absolutely beautiful voice I love Aaron but still go back to the old stuff from time to time and am still blown away
Please go listen to dayshell it you haven't
Dayshell bruh, it's his new band and he's still this good, if not better
@@banksy6511Dayshell it's very good but i feel like Shayley by himself it's not very good with the melodies, i think that he need someone to guide him.
Of mice and men- Feels like forever.
Maaaaannn hell fucking yess !!
Of mice and men - the depths
That one goes hard, you will love it
Tom Longley or the storm holy fuckk it ripss
My favourite one omg
The all suit The Calm - The Storm - The Flood - The Depths. Fucking legendary.
Price of Agony by Fit For A King. You’ll love it. Don’t sleep on this.
that song gives you goosebumps man!!! we need to hear that and he needs to play parkway drive- horizons
Fucking yes
Honestly I love check yes Juliet by fit for king
Paul the 2 mikolaj DuPont Sørensen isn’t that we the kings?
HEY IT ME yeah I think 🤔. I don’t know. I always get the two mix up and it’s been years since I listened to that band
3:57 I have the exact same reaction every time I listen to this part of the song. Shay’s voice is so unique, gets me every time with all the emotions he’s able to capture and express through his vocals
AFTER THE BURIAL - Lost in the Static...
and FIT FOR A KING - PRICE OF AGONY ...both been requested for a really long time...
I second both of these, or really anything from FFAK really. One of the most underrated bands I have ever seen.
Or deathgrip lol
I love deathgrip but these 2 specifically have been requested forever. I've been requesting ATB for a year
Ryan Dickson price of agony is a good one, you have my vote
Yes please! I discovered Lost In The Static last week and I really love this song
PLEASE DO “Don’t go” by bring me the horizon. It’s actually about a real murder that happened, you’ll have to look it up but the meaning behind the song is so sad and scary
a true scene kid here. underrated bmth cut
I lost my mom when I was 16. This song makes me think of her. Especially “come back so I can say thank you for this. Home cooked meals and a place to rest my troubled head.” I’m getting teary eyed right now.
We need the whole “The Depths” album. Ohioisonfire. OG Loko. Ben Threw!!!
That’s my favorite album
Marry me
I love Ben Threw
It’s called “The Flood”🧐
@@jctheii I think they deliberately called it” The depths” in their comment because that’s the most iconic song
This song really brings me back to the good ol’ days

It’s hard to go through, but I’m happy you gave the viewers words of comfort. You’re so on point with actually reacting and being involved with fans Alex, it’s great.
Of Mice and Men- ohioisonfire and my understandings or motionless in white- eternally yours and another life
Definitely more Motionless In White 😁
Ohisisonfire is a dis song to attack attack and attack attack made a dis song AC130
Lol I always get a kick out of the title ohioisonfire because I live in Ohio XD

Check out the band Dayshell, it’s Shayley’s (clean vocalist here) band. Veryyyy very good!!
Crazy Clown 007 Mr. Pain is such a solid record.
Nexus is one of my favorite albums ever
Yes! Came here to say this! Dayshell is AMAZING.
Shay works hard and has been through a lot to get where he is. Hrs one of my favorite vocalists, and a good friend. Keep supporting him and spreading the word! I know this isnt about Dayshell or Shay, but he works too hard to go unrecognized

Blessthefall-Guys like you make us look bad, what's left of me, hollow bodies, 40 days...
Of Mice and Men died when Shay and Austin left. The Flood is still their best album.
Shay actually wrote the majority of that album when Austin initially took time away. Thank God he came back cuz Jerry was an asshole
Right, but Austin has to feel the pain as well. Austin was the metalcore weinstein.
The flood is a masterpiece
That and the self-titled for sure.
I’VE NEVER BEEN THIS EXCITED BEFORE IN MY LIFE I CANT EVEN TYPe
One of my favorite song from them, this part where he starts screaming "COME BACK..." hits me hard as well as I've lost my father when I was 10.
He's right, I often asked if he'll be proud of me or if he's smiling watching over me.

@@TheArtistJ777 that's one of my favorites
Yes!! I saw them a few weeks ago and they blew the roof off the place. I’m obsessed now haha
Or “When everything means nothing”
Lost my mom 6 years ago at the age of 18, I've been a huge of OM&M since they came out. This song always leaves me in tears.
As I Lay Dying: Nothing Left. Then a follow up reaction of As I Lay Dying: The Sound of Truth. The videos go together and are amazing!
Probably the only song that will ever bring me to tears
As i lay dying - through struggle!
The funny thing about this first album by them is that it was rushed. The vocals were quickly recorded and pasted onto the instruments. And it came out like fucking gold. Love it
So if we are going to go back this far then make sure to stop at BlesstheFall "Guys Like You Make Us Look Bad"
Daniel Radke Yes definitely one of BTF’s best songs ever
I cry everytime I hear this song let alone watching the music video. The lyrics and video hits me like "all fathers were young boys with youthful dreams once in their life" and at his death bed, I saw it in my father's eyes and I was like "if only i could give you back and make you experience again the youth you had Papa". No! I'm not crying.. You are!

The Heretic Prevails!!!!!
Crown the empire for sure man
@@ropeybear6965 They're not that good, especially nowadays. They've definitely changed for the worse.
Wrathchild1995 well that’s your opinion that’s invalid to me💁🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️
@@Wrathchild1995 the resistance was a great album
This bands the reason I'm still alive ❤️
Finally of mice and men! React to would you still be there
OMAM has never been the same without Shay and is a completely new band now without Austin. THIS era with Shay and Austin was the best.
Need more of mice & men. The album The Flood is an absolute masterpiece. And their latest album was actually really good too.
Wage War - Youngblood. The band wrote the song for a teenager that committed suicide who was a fan of theirs.
Great reaction. A good one to checkout is "When a demon defiles a witch" by Whitechapel. Phil Bozeman the lead vocalist had a very messed up childhood losing both of his parents.
C'mon Alex, been saying it for like a year now. Volumes - edge of the earth. Badass song. Right up your alley. Thanks brother keep it up
Bring me the horizon - The House of Wolves, The Comedown, Antivist,...
Ice Nine Kills - Thank God It's Friday, Stabbing In The Dark, IT is the end
Anything from INK. Even Alice is slapping lol
yo!!!! how good is house of wolves!!! but lets be real.... diamonds arent forever is where its at ;)
This song never gets old to me, every time I listen to it it’s like the first time ❤
Thanks for the video bro
One of the best concert memories I have came from this song. It was warped tour, oh I don’t know, 8 years ago? The song ended and asked to sing the ending one more time. There’s music playing all around you, but all you could hear was a couple hundred people screaming that at the top of their lungs with Austin. Still gives me goosebumps!
If you like that kinds of stuff you should check out White Light by The Ghost Inside. It's about the Singers younger brother who just unexpectedly passed away in his sleep a couple of years ago.
Yesss yesssss Alex listen to this
damn, you can feel the pain in his screams. Simply an amazing song.
Check out "Imminence - infectious", you won't be disappointed
Es una de canciones preferidas. El violin, la guitarra se complementan vorazmente
This song is EVERYTHING! That violin soothes my soul and makes every hair stand on end.
Another you - of mice and men is their most emotionally deep song. Austin cried when performing it live
This song is just another level. I remember when I first heard it, I said the same thing...OH MY GOD.
First time I heard this I cried, uncontrollably.
Good song choice 👍
This album STILL bangs to this day.
You Wear A Crown But You’re No King- Blessthefall
BAD OMENS- DETHRONE....just a badass song lol
Motionless in White Another Life
It's a great song!, it would be good for the channel
I love that you're finally reacting to some of my favorite songs from back in the day between this & king for a day, here are some things I think you might like from bands that saw their peak between 2007 and 2013 in this post hardcore kind of area. Hope you'll check some of them out.
DRUGS - "Sex Life" and "If you think this song is about you it probably is"
Sleeping with Sirens - "If I'm James Dean, you're Audrey Hepburn" and "If You Can't Hang"
Pierce the Veil - "Caraphernelia" and "Bulletproof Love" and "Today I Saw The Whole World"
A Day to Remember - "Mr. Highway's thinking about the end" and "2nd Sucks"
Like Moths to Flames - "GNF" and "You'll Burn" and "Nowhere Left to Sink" and "All That You Lost"
Chiodos - "The words Best Friend become redefined" and "Baby you wouldn't last a minute on the creek"
Living Colour- Cult of Personality
I saw om&m live at warped tour and saw Austin. I cried cause I loved that band with bmth ptv etc. Those bands helped me recover, helped me grow up and have someone I could just listen to and feel better. That I'm not alone. This song makes me cry cause I hear Austin's pain and he's an inspiration to me.
“Drag the Lake” by The Amity Affliction
I liked the video before it started that's how much I love of mice and men. You definitely need to react to them more!!!!! Keep up the great work Alex.
Yess!!! Of mice and men is awesome!!! Listen to their song "Would You Still Be There"!!
First Of Mice & Men song I ever heard 😉
Second and Sebring is one of my favorite of Mice & Men song!!! To my luck I got to see them before Austins departure and after. Both Austin and Aaron have done a fantastic job as lead singers!
He's no longer the vocalist of OM&M, Austin is suffering from a genetic disease transmitted from his mom (she already died)... Hope you react to Blessthefall.
Where have you been son. This band is the bees knees. I always scream this song. It’s the best.
You should check out Upon a Burning Body - Reinventing Hatred!
Great song
Almost crying except when I noticed I had captions activated
"This is not what it is, it's just burger skill"
I started to laugh too much 😂😂😂😂
Fit for a King - When everything means nothing
That song has helped me through a few bad times. I'm glad I lived to see you react to one of the deepest songs out there.🤘
Thank god for metalcore
I actually know Austin the singer he goes to my church! After he got Marfan syndrome everytime he would perform it would take a huge toll on his health so he ended up having to leave the band. He then actually became saved (became Christian) and started going to my church. He is such an amazing guy with an amazing testimony.
So glad I was able to see Of Mice and Men live when Austin was still in the band. Although they are still good without him, some songs just won't be the same
ive been listening to this song for years and only for the first time have i looked up the lyrics to it. Ive never been more broken over a song in my life, it really hits home. January 1st of 2017 my dad went into the hospital (just 6 days after i turned 14) and he was there for almost 11 months before eventually passing away. He missed all of my highschool years and the struggle that was, me getting my first job, my graduation and so much more, this song does a beautiful job of putting what that feels like into words. nothing shy of a 10/10
