After 30 years of depression, countless meds, and hopelessness. The reactions and open communication that these two videos have brought out in the metal community has never made me feel more safe to be open with and facing my feelings and struggles. Thank you All.
My partner has never been into this style of music. She woke up to me crying to part 1. She didn't understand how something so "evil sounding" could invoke that emotion. 6 minutes later, we were both in tears. Some people have different locks on their emotions. Music is a universal set of keys that can unlock anything. Music=Life.
my girlfriend does not like extreme metal, too (she is more into old school hardrock and punk), but after watching and listening to Part 1, she said, that this is a great piece of art. there are a few songs in this world, that can trigger emotions, even if you don't like the genre.
Dude, stop being a cry baby. Geez. Now that I have your attention, I got to say that I love you man. The content you provide is unmatched and I am extremely grateful that you're able and willing to show this side of you online. I've certainly shed more than a few tears watching you react to this and the previous Lorna Shore single. You've grown from just another dude on my feed to my favorite react TH-camr online. I wish you and your wife nothing but the best. As someone who lost my family members due to terminal illnesses, my father primarily, and some of my friends due to suicide, this album hits like a truck. They've not only started a revolution, sonically, visually and compositionally, within their respective genre, but they're also trying to encourage people to start talking about very important and serious subjects. A human mind is a very complicated machine. If it's neglected, malnourished and/or abused, it tends to find the easiest way to end the suffering. More often than not, that way is suicide. To keep our dearest and others by our side, it is important to care for one another and talk openly about our problems, with no prejudice.
@@TankTheTech Absolutely. Hopefully other bands will take notice and follow up. Also, if they keep releasing such mind blowing music, I'll go bankrupt.
Oh you are so right!!! You said the perfect words to explain how I feel about Tank (you are an amazing person Tank I love you Bro!, you are also my preferite youtube reactor), Lorna, this kind of music, this piece of art. Let me say: I am and I always was a metalhead, but I listened to the more commercial side of metal from progressive, heavy metal to right now death, brutal and so on. Bands like Lorna Shore, or another band like Fleshgod Apocalypse, just to mention another one, rise up the bar making music with this topic and with THIS kind of level of artistry. That's it. Thank you all! LOVE to everyone! \../
I lost my dad, an uncle and a friend to self deletion. I also tried to delete myself as well. This song and video hit me like a freight train on a warpath. I never in a million years thought I'd be so invested in death core and only 1 other band has hit me on a level like Lorna Shore and that was Bullet For My Valentine when I was a teenager and again, going through some major stuff. I cannot thank the Lorna Shore guys enough for giving me an outlet to pour my emotions out to. As for you Tank, thank you for being so open and honest. Self deletion is one of the leading causes of leaving the world even though we're led to believe we live much better lives in the 21st century. Just knowing people out there think of me, even though they're strangers and will never even talk to me genuinely helps me wake up in the morning. I also hate how we can't even talk about it and express it on this platform because TH-cam doesn't like the actual words and phrases we use to express it. It's beyond frustrating so please don't take me calling it deletion as a joke or down playing, there's just no other way I can say it without TH-cam just removing the comment. We have all felt the affects of the act, whether we tried it ourselves, know someone who has tried and/or succeeded or know someone currently dealing with it. I just want to let everyone know that I may be a stranger, I do not know you and we may never speak but I'm in your corner, cheering for all you everyday. It doesn't sound like much but I hope just knowing at least 1 person out here, me, has your back and is rooting for you helps you even in a tiny way. We're all on this floating space rock together, the least we can do is help make this world a more bearable place for everyone else!
I, as you put it, put myself in the shoes of the character, I have a wife and if not for our kid, I can 100% see how things turn out this way. But I was looking at it purely through the perspective of, there's this person that I love and if they suddenly disappeared, so would I. But then you mentioned people close to you who you've lost to S, and then all the friends I've lost to that hit me. 2 of the happiest people I knew, 1 was actually such an epic guitarist, gone, because we didn't see the signs. Were there signs to see? Did we miss it because we were too busy with our own shit? It hits hard man. Best thing we can do is live their memory to the best of our abilities. People, if you're not okay, say something, I implore you.
Tank, I feel you on losing someone recently. One of the friends I've had for the lats 15 years just lost his fight with cancer... he was 36 years old. It feels like there's a hole in my chest and a lead weight in my jaw, but having support makes things much easier.
It is beautiful music. I cried on the first one and the second had me head banging but there definitely is a darker undertone. Just my observation man, suicide is the shittiest part of existing. Has the mind fooled (poisoned) that nothing will get better no matter what you do. I get it. Been in that soul sucking place myself and am still fighting the inevitable. We will all end up in the same place (cemetery) but for now Lorna Shore has the music that really adds some release/realization of how painful I would be to my family. Just my opinion folks. Served 5 years in the USMC and see suicide taking my brothers, sisters all of the time and I’m sick of it. Do not be afraid/ashamed/anything else and reach out for some help. That goes for anyone reading this humble post. You are all loved, realize it or not.
I’ve lost friends to suicide. Nobody knew about the place they were at the time. They never said anything. It destroys me and makes me feel like I wasn’t as great of a friend as I thought because I didn’t see it. Be intentional in your friends/family’s lives. Life is too short. Never feel you’re above emotion. Nobody will see you differently if you are struggling. Talk to someone! I’m here. I’ll listen. I’ll help any way I can. I mean it!!
DO NOT SUFFER IN SILENCE, in the UK the Crisis Helpline is 988 This track really pushes my buttons having suffered from depression most of my life, I tried to disappear numerous times, it really helps to talk to somebody, it is not a sign of weakness (though my age group (late 50s) was brought up with the whole Men don't cry BS). This song just encapsulates the pain of depression and loss, I cannot wait for the 3rd track. There is a Romantic video for parts 1 and 2 that I cannot bring myself to watch yet
Hey tank, just wanted to touch on the "theres always help". Ive had a lot of attempts due to bipolar disorder, and people say theyll help and theyll always be there, but they get real quiet once you ask or cry for it. A lot of us suffer in silence mostly due to that, people only really care once youre gone.
I'm a huge advocate for mental health, especially amongst our veterans and active duty service members. After losing my father to suicide Oct 22nd 2008 and losing a brother Jan 1 2022, both army vets. This video hits home, the amount of people lost to suicide is horrendous. Take care of yourselfs everyone, there's someone hoping to see you tomorrow!
It took a few days to finally watch that music video. It really hits hard and I don't think I can just toss it on a playlist. I agree that just hearing the song without the video will hit differently but if you've seen the video, I don't think there's a way to not think of it while listening to the song. I cried watching it, now I've cried again with you. I think it'll be a little while before I can listen to it again. Thank you for another great video Tank.
I watched the video after just listening to the song first and it and while of course I didn’t have as extreme as a reaction as when seeing the video the song itself made me extremely sad nonetheless…I honestly think these guys are that good of conposers
The feeling I got watching this reminds me of when we first lost Chester Bennington and Linkin Park performed a memorial concert. That live show when the mic up front was left unattended for Chester, and all of his parts were sung by the audience. It just gave me chills and a deep sense of mourning for a man I never met, but affected my life enough with his music that I missed him anyways. That's how Pain Remains as a whole makes me feel.
This is my first time watching the pain remains part 2 and I can't stop crying really long enough to use my talk-to-text due to me being physically disabled this song hit home so bad I thought like this when I lost my mother I wanted my whole world to end. In my own way I tried to end it so I could be with her. The only thing that saved me I swear her spirit came to me and told me to stop and that I would be with her again one day but for right now I have to keep on living. I love you Mom I'll see you again someday but just not right now like you said
This band is something else. I have people who in a thousand years. I would never think of being metal fans, just being touched and moved. Thanks for doing this one Tank appreciate your words and openness. All the best man
I was unable to see the videos to the pain remains trilogy do to the fact that I’m almost totally blind. But even without the videos, this is still one of the most emotional pieces of music I have ever Hurd. To anyone reading this, know that your a good person and you can make it through tomorrow. Don’t ever give up! ❤
Having been on a mental health & well-being recovery journey myself, I echo the sentiments to reach out for help. After having 2 family members attempt ove the past couple of years, I've gone through some heavy stuff. I reached out to my doctor and he referred me to mental health therapist. I have to say it's the best thing that's happened to me in a long time. Someone who will listen to me without judgement and has the knowledge and expertise to give me the skills and tools to help. I know they can only show us the door, we have to walk through it. But with their help, walking through it is easier. Can't wait to see this reaction. Rock on Tank.
I love Tank. He is not afraid to show emotion for tens of thousands to see, he is unbelievably humble, he speaks the truth and will always be honest with the audiance. I have nothing but the upmost love and support for you Tank. Don't stop being you and sharing with us your journey as a roadie and your music reactions. We love you Tank
I think it’s really important for everyone to see the whole message behind the songs. Their guitarist Adam is in a way “speaking” a hell of a lot on these tracks. Just know it’s okay to feel how you feel. Don’t be afraid to speak about it. It’s healthy and encouraged. We got this.
These last 2 songs for sure have impacted me emotionally more than almost any other 2 songs I've heard ... during these last 2 years my mom went through chemotherapy for cancer, my best friend passed away and I made an attempt on my life just last December; I would not be here without my other friends constantly pushing me to seek help .. No matter what you're going through, at least try to get help!
I must admit. Lorna shore is quickly becoming the most beautiful and important metal bands in newer history. I can't remember the last time I sat speechless like I did with part 1 and 2. It's incredible to me that this genre can provoke these types of emotions in so many people. Go back 5 years and nothing like this was as prevalent as it is now. Not to mention they just sound amazing.
Parts I and II both hit hard. Part III is going to be heavy and amazing. These videos got me crying every time. I’m sorry for the loss of your friends. Your openness with these reactions is inspiring. Thank you for these reactions and sharing your experiences. Oct 14 will be a great day for the metal community when the full album drops.
You should be. They are insanely good live, saw them in august. Im so jealous to everybody thats going to see the pain remains tour, I love all bands on it. (Im from germany so basically not possible to visit that tour) Have a great time there!
I've lost myself. Struggeling hard with avoidant personality disorder and dysthymia. When I was younger , I had relationships, girlfriends, friends, a life. Now it's just isolation and solitude. With every "social emotion" still inside, not allowed to work. This hits home, way too hard. Because where does one go, when you don't even got yourself? Anyways. Great reaction to a fuckin' masterpiece, yet again.
I lost a friend to suicide in a similar method. I have also had my own struggles with mental health and have been in dark places. This hits close to home. 😢 I’m sorry for the loss of those important people in your life. I have been there, man. It’s rough.
Yup. At 'This fucking world" is the part that broke me in this one. The anger in Will's voice, the change in temp and not to mention what happens in the video
My twin brother took his own life a few months ago and it was totally unexpected and it’s been tremendously hard for me and my family to go through this because I haven’t went through loss like this ever and I discovered this pain remains ballad soon after that and it is one of my favorite pieces of music ever cause it was the most emotional I’ve ever gotten over music and I related so hard to it and it just felt like it was written about me and how I’m feeling and I’m sorry for all you’ve been through but thank you for sharing because it made me feel like I wasn’t alone and I’m sure a lot of others felt the same way. Thanks Tank. You’re a legend.
Definitely the hardest and moving song of this year. And the video has hit me more then anything for both. Lost the love of my life not even 2 years ago and I see myself cause everything is spot on. The pain of loss, the grief, the rage afterwards. And the thoughts of ending it. New favorite band. Definitely need to see them live
For someone who lost his wife and kids, this resonates with me very well. And truth be told, that suicide thing, that never goes far away. On an other note I always found it interesting how sometimes couples just die naturally within minutes or hours.
I think I've had more catharsis seeing people share their reactions to this amazing trilogy than all of the group therapy I've been to. Combat vet and 2 times attempted suicide survivor here and depression/CPTSD is a monster. That whole "you've won the battle but lost the war" quote feels apropos to suicide survival. It's not just one battle that you win and it's done. It's a war. Everyday. It's a long painful slog and if I didn't have my personal support systems in place I wouldn't be here. Lost my mom when she was 40, I was 21. Too many fallen friends both in actual war and the war raging inside our heads causing suicide. Thank you for being vulnerable, and poetic in your expressions Tank. I love you man.
As someone who has depression and went through a rocky divorce a few years ago and the ex was in a low state.. so was i... these last two songs have been so heartwrenching.. this is welcome to see. I have so much respect for Will and the rest of Lorna Shore for these tracks.. and posting the lifeline numbers. This is what the community needed.. the open communication and everything.
This hit really hard, again. The tranquillity of the actor perfectly represents the mood of those who perform an action perfectly aware of the result, and the video sync with the song it's perfect. I don't know what expect for part 3... but I want part 3... really great musicians, of another level... I love music because for me it's pure emotions, it's an experience, and depending of my mood, I switch genre... but this song, and part 1, fill my need... but the thing that shock me in a good way, it's that this flow of emotions came from a deathcore band... and it's great.
Normally this deathcore doesn't click with me, but for some reasons, and your reaction, these Lorna Shore songs do. They are so brutally intense. I can relate to you and many of your feelings about losing people you love. My best friend since school for 25 years, my teammate, my wedding witness, past away 3 years ago in a sudden aorta rupture. So live part 2 starts where I live without this person. I am happy and to be honest, is feels 'great' to feel the sadness again. In the end it is what I have left and I do find a spot and put on music that gets me sad for a few moments and miss him. I hope I can keep doing that forever now and then and this kind of pieces of music brings that. Thank you for putting it up here and thank Lorna Shore for creating it.
Man, even after listening to these songs and seen the music videos to them over the last year, the Pain Remains trilogy remains a tear jerker. Something else I think is also important to talk about is reaching out to those you think are going through a rough time. Doesn't have to be direct to the point of what issues they may be going through, but it's showing you are there. Speaking from experience, when you are the one going through these emotions it's hard to make the first step and reach out. Because depending on what the issue is, it's a fear that no one will want to listen, a fear you'll lose more friends, a fear to find out you aren't as close as you thought you were with people you believed you were friends with, or if they are that they're too afraid to talk to you. The fear that you feel like you're left with nothing. Ultimately, it comes down to the individual to take the first step and reach out if they're going through these issues. However, sometimes a "Hi. How are you doing?" is what someone needs the most. Because it is scary when you're filled with self-doubt, that whatever is bothering you you try to pretend that the issue doesn't matter. It kills me to this day, to finally break and speak your mind in a way that make different situations fit to what you say and end up hurting those close to you. Just the littlest things that pile up. Feeling like you don't matter, no one wants to hear you out, falling back into that cycle where you feel isolated when you don't want to be alone, listening to those thoughts on repeat when you have no one to help counter those thoughts. I encourage people to reach out to those they think are going through this, because you might've been the only one who has reached out. It's not a happy thought to think about, but I've found almost everyone is too afraid to say anything if they suspect someone isn't doing well.
Thank you so much for being such an open man Tank! Thanks for showing yourself with total honesty, and share your emotions with us. Adam de micco has made an amazing work with his guitar solos, such emotional and brutal sound 🖤
I am an interpreter, which means I go with people who don't speak English and talk for them. In my work I encounter, several times, people on the brink of total breakdown. And the worst part of interpreter's job is, we have to be neutral and don't engage emotionally so we can translate precisely what's being said. I mostly did, but after coming home I was falling apart completely. I even thought of declining those particular assignments, but I couldn't, I felt that I have to help any way I could. There came the time I had to talk to someone because of all the pain I came in contact with. It's so important to get help before the inevitable happens. Thank you Tank for you honesty and openness, that's what I respect you for. You don't shy away from difficult subjects.🙏
Wow, Ive never even thought about something like that before. That has to be extremely difficult, but im glad you were able to talk to someone about it.
28 years I've been here on this planet in this life. 28 years of ups, downs, and neutrals, and having been in 3 very serious car accidents that very well should have killed me in their own rights, I've considered myself lucky for those. But for the last 20 years, it's been more down than neutral or up. I've tried everything, and I mean everything. Drugs, alcohol, running, hiding, meds, you name it, I've tried it. I've never attempted and have only considered it twice, but these two songs hit extremely hard. I'm not even a Lorna Shore fan, and don't listen to deathcore all that much. But I respect the hell out of the lyricism in these two songs. They show that there's more to not just deathcore, but metal than people look at. Name a subgenre of metal and there's a song or several that have deep meanings and messages that hook an emotional chord to the masses, far more than any other genre I've listened to. These guys have definitely earned a fan out of me with these two songs, but as hard as they hit, there remains one other that hit harder, King of Misery by SAUL. Amazing job by the guys in Lorna Shore. And if anyone in this comment section or in the discord needs anyone to talk to, I'll be here. I'm on discord in the server as TheSixthElement#1617. There is always someone out there willing to hear your voice and help. Thank you, Tank for two amazing reactions to two amazing songs.
And the most important thing is that this kind of emotions, deep, unbelievable emotions, are given to us by a DEATHCORE band. Metal is such a blessing. ❤
Lost on of my close friends just 2 years ago to suicide. Have attempted suicide myself and have thought about it more since then. Men hurt and feel ashamed to talk about, BUT WE HAVE TO TALK ABOUT IT. Reach out to someone. Someone will listen and someone will care. Suicide leaves lasting effects on all the people that love you and regardless what anyone thinks, you are loved. Somebody out there cares. Tank, you are awesome and more men should be willing to be as emotional as you are, and should speak up about this topic. Thanks for putting yourself out there for us.
Relistening and rewatching this trilogy, is a journey in pain. You are one of the few i can rewatch over and over. And man Tank, i go through it with you everytime i watch your reactions. It doesn't stop the emotion no matter how often i watch it. Its like its the first time. Thanks for being an awesome react channel and being a cool ass dude to continue watching. Cheers
Sorry about what you're going through. I have lost loved ones to cancer. As for the video, I was in that man's shoes ending included. When I lost someone in a particularly brutal way, I broke. When I decided to end it there was a wave of relief. I didn't tell anyone nor did I want to. Why would anyone want to stay in a world they are no longer able to connect with? My plan didn't work, obviously, but there isn't a day that I don't struggle with this. These songs shows those of us that don't talk to others that we aren't alone in our suffering. I have no doubt these songs are someone's lifeline.
Man, this is so raw and heartfelt. Be safe Tank, and everyone that sees this. Lorna Shore have again proved they can go beyond the musical boundaries that often constrain artists and just 'do real life'. Outstanding craft, wonderful imagery and a genuine sense of care. Wow. Incredible stuff.
Thank you for being yourself and express the feelings you feel. I currently struggle to stay alive in the sense Im sick but also wanting to end the suffering. With these two videos I see myself losing my life and all I had from his perspective, while I also see myself in that bed with my family by my side hurting and what will come after if I die. A lot of feelings getting touched with these two songs.
Thanks for being for so open and don't be sorry for stepping back for a minute there. It's a good sign of mental maturity that you know when you can handle something emotionally or not. No one should feel like they need to hold up a facade of "strength" for the public eye. I love that you share these moments with us and don't just hide them away 🤗
I lost a friend to cancer whom I had known since they moved to the US in the 1st grade. I will always think of them as one of my favorite people in the world, and it's hard to have a world without them in it. I also have another friend who passed from liver failure in 2018 that I'd known since kindergarten, an ex who used to self-harm, another friend who left of their own choosing, one who was taken by their parent (who then took their own life), and several who have nearly left this world from driving while drunk. Thinking about all of the people I can never see again, or who almost wound up that way, I'm so grateful that they were/are in my life! Thank you for always being open with your story and your heart, Tank. Being nearly the same age (32), helps me feel a stronger connection to you than I do with a lot of other TH-camrs (no idea why), and seeing your vulnerability is always so cathartic for me. Thank you doesn't feel like enough, but I 100% mean it every time I say it to you.
Been super busy so late commenting…I just watched pain remains 3. This trilogy deserves an award for the videos and music- the most artistic thing I’ve seen in a long time. I straight up could not keep it together watching these. Just incredible on all ends.
I can’t watch/listen/feel this with dry eyes man wow, they captured something that touches everyone here it’s insane! I have NEVER heard something that has drawn out so much emotion in me both physically and mentally…..hats off to Lorna Shore
First I want to say I'm so sorry to hear about your friend and friends. If To The Hellfire hit like a train for its sheer epicness, this trilogy is like being locked in a sinking ship. Thank you for being so open. My cousin took her life when I was 19, she was 21. No one likes funerals, but that one was the worst fucking thing I have ever attended to. I didnt even know her that well, I learned her history afterwards. So much shit she was carrying and had happened to her. Her boyfriend found her. He started working early and she appeared to be sleeping so he went up and got to work, went home and she was there, exactly like in the morning. He checked out 2 years later, 24 years old. This trilogy hits me like nothing I have heard before. Take care of people. Not talking kills people. Try to find out if someone needs help and reach out. It might actually save someone.
I think it's great you're showing your emotions like this and are talking about the stuff that most people don't wanna talk about. We need this more!! F** the tough guy mentality, f** feeling ashamed for mental health issues! It's ok to not feel ok, it's ok to cry, it's ok to open up and to lean on someone. This is to everyone out there: You're never alone!!
Dude I’ve became obsessed with Lorna Shore and this album just absolutely words can’t describe murdered the way of metal. I’ve came close to crying so many times because I too have known of loved ones losing someone so dear to them and not knowing what to do. I’m sure I’ll cry later on but I’ve NEVER had any type of song hit this hard to me. Thank you.
I watched both videos for the first time yesterday, and today is my 30th birthday. As a kid I never thought I'd live past 20, I was dead set to be gone by then after years and years of abuse, friends and family dying from suicide and cancer, even murder, yet here I am. 30 fucking years old, and I'm so glad to be alive. It's hard, and some days are worse than others, but I'm still hopeful. We need to break the stigma surrounding mental health. Thank you for sharing, and I wish you all the best.
I’ve experienced an emotional issue or depression that has been with me for over 20 that’s probably pretty unusual. I have been so numb. Worried Maybe I’m a psychopath for not feeling anything, and em ulating humanity in social setting. These 2 pieces of music have changed me. Over-fucking-welmed with human emotion… so painful, but I’m alive for the first time in so fucking long. I wish the members of Lorna Shore knew how much impact they have had in the last couple of years. While not at risk for suicide, they may have saved me from a different sort of demise. So grateful.
I'm glad I discovered these reactions now. A couple nights ago I wasn't sure I'd survive the night. After passing out I woke up the next morning seeing these reactions starting with Charismatic Voice. And it helped hearing other people's opinions on suicide and self harm.
Thank you for sharing your own emotions with us. I would love to give you a hug right now. i also sad here crying during the videos... Its awesome but right in the feels...
For someone who has been on both sides of these two songs, it's very easy to relate to the main character. Only now, after 30 years, I've started to take my own mental well-being seriously. Being bullied my entire school years from 1st grade in elementary to end of graduation, having a toxic family relationships and overall the idea that "a real man never cries or complains". The sort of mentality I despise nowadays, to the core of my being. I can't really cry much at all, outside listening to music. Nothing else really gets to me, 'cos I guess I was the frog in a boiling pot for so long. I'm hugely emotional person and very empathic towards other people, but crying is just something that doesn't happen almost never. When "And I Return to Nothingness" came over a year ago, that was one of those cases that broke me. Having buried several friends and family members (including my father, who did commit a suicide) - and also being the one who has tried it several times - there was always someone who pulled me out of it, which I'm ever so thankful about. People do care and help is out there - but it can only reach you, if you are able to ask for that help. Hope that whoever feels the same way gets some encouragement from the comments, and seeks help. You are worth it. ♥
These songs are doing exactly what 13 Reasons Why has done, started conversations that need to be started. Props to Lorna Shore for making something so beautifully heavy.
Tank, thank you, and everyone else, who promotes and supports anyone who is suffering mentally reaching out and getting the help they need. As someone who has fought a lifelong struggle with mental illness, I can speak personally as to how difficult it is to ever reach out and just...ask for an ear. It feels like a burden, like we're just adding undue stress or trouble to the other person/people (even though we're not), and it fucking sucks, dude Thoughts of self-harm and suicide are constantly (but not always) accompanied by other behaviors. Increases in drinking, smoking, drug use, more reclusive or withdrawn behavior, a general lack of just...general interest in hobbies and activities the person usually enjoys. They don't wanna spend time with even those closest to them. And it's not because they suddenly hate anyone or anything, either. There's just...no joy in them, no enjoyment or happiness. And all of this is usually accompanied by thoughts of "I'm just a burden" or "I can't say anything, it's just a nuisance" or similar. The self-doubt and hopelessness is all-consuming and all too real, and it's a bitter battle to fight, let alone every day for weeks or even months on end I've tried multiple times to take my own life at this point, but I always end up backing down because someone says something or does something that reminds me that I still have a place here in this world. I have a semicolon tattoo on my left wrist now to remind me that my story isn't over, that it's just a break in the sentence before a new line begins. It's not a sign of weakness, but a symbol of strength, a reminder that in the end, I had the will to keep going If there's anything someone reading this takes away, please make it a reminder to be kind and just...remember to reach out, whether you're suffering or you suspect someone else is. Just be a good person, be a good human being, and be a good friend. We're all we have, and we are our best resource, for ourselves and others. Don't be afraid to actually use that resource. I wish everyone well \m/
I tied a lot of what I experienced in my very young life to these two videos. I've lost a friend to suicide, made a couple attempts myself, even had to help bury a loved one. It hurts, and yes, it always hurts. Pain Remains, always. But pain is inconsequential of the life we live, love is what makes us despite the pain. Give your closest people hugs, tell everyone you love that you love them. Everyone is going through something, every action builds up. Remember that you are loved, no matter what the demons say.
I'm about to be 34 myself. Everything you said at the end I relate to. Everything you said is so painfully right. These videos hit me to my core, and I love them for it. Thank you for expressing that this is not something to bury. It's not being strong, or being a man, or whatever nonsense people tell themselves. No, if you're in this place, get help. Nobody deserves to be here.
The harsh music encompasses all the internal frustrations and screams all men internalize, beautifully combined with how deep our emotions run for those we truly love. In all of my 35 years I absolutely have never watched a song that encapsulates it in this way. I love you for sharing this with us. To allow us to live through you. I’ve lost three childhood friends in the military, in the early 2000’s, while I served. Also lost a good friend to suicide. To this day there isn’t a day that goes by that I don’t think about all of them. Not everyone reached out for help. Sometimes they feel like they’re sparing you from the “trouble” of worrying and just “disappearing.” Over the years, I’ve felt the same way many times. I’ve come close. The people I’ve lost were better than me. Had more to give. And it never stops hurting. We only cope by ignoring it, as men. If we don’t; we’ll self-destruct. And then it feels like a betrayal to them.
Fuck man, I have no words of wisdom or stories of loss to share. Just FUCK, how many times can I sit here and cry in front of my computer over these songs? The fact that they can pull this much emotion out of me as well as everyone else it seems, its almost overwhelming. Thank you Tank for sharing with us.
This reaction broke me, as did the video. I've struggled with suicidal tendencies for the last 10 years, and it's fucking terrifying. This music speaks to me in a way not many bands can. Thank you for your amazing and honest reactions and discussions. I hope everyone is doing great. Please call someone if you ever feel this way. No one deserves to feel this way.
I'm not usually the type of person to leave comments, but dude, I genuinely love your content. I've been following you for a while now and you've really quickly become one of the few channels I regularly come back to. Not only is your deep connection to the music something I very strongly relate to, but I just really love how genuine your reactions are, and how open you are about all these difficult but important topics. Being so open about your struggles, feelings and such is never easy to do, and to do it in front of your entire audience takes even more strength. Really respect you for that and truly appreciate you bringing attention to all these things and fighting against the toxic mindsets that are unfortunately still around. Also love seeing so many people in the comments backing up these thoughts. Truly makes me feel like there's still hope after all. These two Lorna singles have really hit like a brick to the face, I don't think I've ever cried so much over a song (& its video) as much as I have with these. I'll stop blabbering now, but really, thank you for the genuine and great content. ❤
The humanity and purity of your heart and soul on full display here is enough to invoke emotions that I had lost touch with… I love you, & I am sorry to hear what you’re going through! Truly! ❣️❤️😢
Man Im back here after 2/3 Months and I just thought how cool it would be if you did another reaction to all three Pain Remains parts in a single reaction. Love the content and I saw Will and the Guys in Frankfurt with Parkway drive. They are amazing. Love from Germany❤
Good on you for showing that it's okay for men to cry. I recently lost my father to cancer so I can definitely empathise with your situation. Just remember that you can only do what you can do and your friend will certainly appreciate you being there for them.
I just lost a dear friend to cancer he was a metal head to the core and I’ve been listening to these songs on repeat since they came out gives me goosebumps . Miss him a lot
Thank you for being so open with your reactions and emotions. For reasons many people still don't quite understand, music hits humans in a very special and unique way. Surely there must be music within all of us, and when we hear music that resonates with the internal music that brings our emotions to the surface. And as I've found over the years, any genre of music can resonate with someone out there to the point of revealing our emotions. The themes explored in the Pain Remains trilogy are really, _really_ heavy stuff, and Lorna Shore's really, _really_ heavy music is in many ways an ideal vessel to explore those themes with. The relentless speed and intensity can represent that very intensity most of us experience with the loss of a loved one. And Will's vocals have the perfect blend of sadness, desperation, and anger. Sometimes we need hard music to better explore these hard topics, and I love that Lorna Shore gave us these works of art to aid us in our own explorations.
I didn't come here for the emotional message at the end but I definitely stayed for it. I have mad respect for you for not only being real and showing your own emotions. But also for addressing how it's been engrained in our minds that having emotions is a weakness and how that leads to more death. I hope you're doing alright man.
I've said it in Live chat and I'll say it here, ever since this song dropped, I've been waiting for this reaction. It will have been a tough one to film I have no doubt. Love your openness and honesty.
I am trying to find words for this after watching Part 1 and 2 on Pain Remains. My tears couldn't come out until you started the aftertalk just after the music on this finished. Thats when I broke down on this. Thanks to you I watched this, and I don't regret it. ♥
Respect you for doing this and talking so openly. You're helping to normalize talking about your feelings and dealing with it in a healthy way. I also respect that you didn't censor the music video out of fear of being demonetized.

After 30 years of depression, countless meds, and hopelessness. The reactions and open communication that these two videos have brought out in the metal community has never made me feel more safe to be open with and facing my feelings and struggles. Thank you All.
That's amazing to hear, man. Everyone has their struggles and we should never hold our feelings in. We're all people, and we're all in this together.
Mate in the same boat here. I would not be hear if i did not learn to open up and talk to people.
Wilbert same here keep strong 💪. ❤️
You got this, my dude. The metal community has your back.
glad you are still here.
My partner has never been into this style of music. She woke up to me crying to part 1. She didn't understand how something so "evil sounding" could invoke that emotion. 6 minutes later, we were both in tears. Some people have different locks on their emotions. Music is a universal set of keys that can unlock anything. Music=Life.
my girlfriend does not like extreme metal, too (she is more into old school hardrock and punk), but after watching and listening to Part 1, she said, that this is a great piece of art.
there are a few songs in this world, that can trigger emotions, even if you don't like the genre.
considering you front one of the biggest metal bands in the world, your choice of partner is a surprising one.
Lol, that was good
Oh wow, it's corey taylor and his partner.
I love this comment!!!❤❤❤❤
For everyone who was almost not here this day: I am glad you’re still here.
Dude, stop being a cry baby. Geez.
Now that I have your attention, I got to say that I love you man. The content you provide is unmatched and I am extremely grateful that you're able and willing to show this side of you online. I've certainly shed more than a few tears watching you react to this and the previous Lorna Shore single. You've grown from just another dude on my feed to my favorite react TH-camr online. I wish you and your wife nothing but the best.
As someone who lost my family members due to terminal illnesses, my father primarily, and some of my friends due to suicide, this album hits like a truck. They've not only started a revolution, sonically, visually and compositionally, within their respective genre, but they're also trying to encourage people to start talking about very important and serious subjects. A human mind is a very complicated machine. If it's neglected, malnourished and/or abused, it tends to find the easiest way to end the suffering. More often than not, that way is suicide. To keep our dearest and others by our side, it is important to care for one another and talk openly about our problems, with no prejudice.
I agree with everything you said. These guys are becoming more than just another band, and this music may literally save some people that hear it.
I swear to god, i went from 0-100 in a blink of an eye, as i saw the first sentence. You got me there xDD
@@TankTheTech Absolutely. Hopefully other bands will take notice and follow up.
Also, if they keep releasing such mind blowing music, I'll go bankrupt.
@@tommeeeyyy9779 Haha my bad!
Oh you are so right!!!
You said the perfect words to explain how I feel about Tank (you are an amazing person Tank I love you Bro!, you are also my preferite youtube reactor), Lorna, this kind of music, this piece of art.
Let me say: I am and I always was a metalhead, but I listened to the more commercial side of metal from progressive, heavy metal to right now death, brutal and so on.
Bands like Lorna Shore, or another band like Fleshgod Apocalypse, just to mention another one, rise up the bar making music with this topic and with THIS kind of level of artistry.
That's it. Thank you all!
LOVE to everyone! \../
Thank you for being real, open, and honest. I really appreciate it!
I lost my dad, an uncle and a friend to self deletion. I also tried to delete myself as well. This song and video hit me like a freight train on a warpath.
I never in a million years thought I'd be so invested in death core and only 1 other band has hit me on a level like Lorna Shore and that was Bullet For My Valentine when I was a teenager and again, going through some major stuff. I cannot thank the Lorna Shore guys enough for giving me an outlet to pour my emotions out to.
As for you Tank, thank you for being so open and honest. Self deletion is one of the leading causes of leaving the world even though we're led to believe we live much better lives in the 21st century. Just knowing people out there think of me, even though they're strangers and will never even talk to me genuinely helps me wake up in the morning. I also hate how we can't even talk about it and express it on this platform because TH-cam doesn't like the actual words and phrases we use to express it. It's beyond frustrating so please don't take me calling it deletion as a joke or down playing, there's just no other way I can say it without TH-cam just removing the comment.
We have all felt the affects of the act, whether we tried it ourselves, know someone who has tried and/or succeeded or know someone currently dealing with it. I just want to let everyone know that I may be a stranger, I do not know you and we may never speak but I'm in your corner, cheering for all you everyday. It doesn't sound like much but I hope just knowing at least 1 person out here, me, has your back and is rooting for you helps you even in a tiny way. We're all on this floating space rock together, the least we can do is help make this world a more bearable place for everyone else!
Much love! I appreciate your honesty and for leaving this comment on here.
I, as you put it, put myself in the shoes of the character, I have a wife and if not for our kid, I can 100% see how things turn out this way. But I was looking at it purely through the perspective of, there's this person that I love and if they suddenly disappeared, so would I. But then you mentioned people close to you who you've lost to S, and then all the friends I've lost to that hit me. 2 of the happiest people I knew, 1 was actually such an epic guitarist, gone, because we didn't see the signs. Were there signs to see? Did we miss it because we were too busy with our own shit? It hits hard man. Best thing we can do is live their memory to the best of our abilities.
People, if you're not okay, say something, I implore you.
Hey fellas, this is your daily reminder that it's ok to cry at things that make you want to cry.
I want to hug you. Thank you for being real.
Never thought I'd cry during a sick breakdown but here we are. I cried so hard the first time I heard this and the key change turned me into a wreck
Tank, I feel you on losing someone recently. One of the friends I've had for the lats 15 years just lost his fight with cancer... he was 36 years old. It feels like there's a hole in my chest and a lead weight in my jaw, but having support makes things much easier.
Sorry for your loss, man.
Stay strong brother. You're not alone.
It is beautiful music. I cried on the first one and the second had me head banging but there definitely is a darker undertone. Just my observation man, suicide is the shittiest part of existing. Has the mind fooled (poisoned) that nothing will get better no matter what you do. I get it. Been in that soul sucking place myself and am still fighting the inevitable. We will all end up in the same place (cemetery) but for now Lorna Shore has the music that really adds some release/realization of how painful I would be to my family. Just my opinion folks. Served 5 years in the USMC and see suicide taking my brothers, sisters all of the time and I’m sick of it. Do not be afraid/ashamed/anything else and reach out for some help. That goes for anyone reading this humble post. You are all loved, realize it or not.
I’ve lost friends to suicide. Nobody knew about the place they were at the time. They never said anything. It destroys me and makes me feel like I wasn’t as great of a friend as I thought because I didn’t see it. Be intentional in your friends/family’s lives. Life is too short. Never feel you’re above emotion. Nobody will see you differently if you are struggling. Talk to someone! I’m here. I’ll listen. I’ll help any way I can. I mean it!!
DO NOT SUFFER IN SILENCE, in the UK the Crisis Helpline is 988
This track really pushes my buttons having suffered from depression most of my life, I tried to disappear numerous times, it really helps to talk to somebody, it is not a sign of weakness (though my age group (late 50s) was brought up with the whole Men don't cry BS). This song just encapsulates the pain of depression and loss, I cannot wait for the 3rd track.
There is a Romantic video for parts 1 and 2 that I cannot bring myself to watch yet
Hey tank, just wanted to touch on the "theres always help". Ive had a lot of attempts due to bipolar disorder, and people say theyll help and theyll always be there, but they get real quiet once you ask or cry for it. A lot of us suffer in silence mostly due to that, people only really care once youre gone.
I'm a huge advocate for mental health, especially amongst our veterans and active duty service members. After losing my father to suicide Oct 22nd 2008 and losing a brother Jan 1 2022, both army vets. This video hits home, the amount of people lost to suicide is horrendous. Take care of yourselfs everyone, there's someone hoping to see you tomorrow!
It took a few days to finally watch that music video. It really hits hard and I don't think I can just toss it on a playlist. I agree that just hearing the song without the video will hit differently but if you've seen the video, I don't think there's a way to not think of it while listening to the song. I cried watching it, now I've cried again with you. I think it'll be a little while before I can listen to it again.
Thank you for another great video Tank.
I watched the video after just listening to the song first and it and while of course I didn’t have as extreme as a reaction as when seeing the video the song itself made me extremely sad nonetheless…I honestly think these guys are that good of conposers
The feeling I got watching this reminds me of when we first lost Chester Bennington and Linkin Park performed a memorial concert. That live show when the mic up front was left unattended for Chester, and all of his parts were sung by the audience. It just gave me chills and a deep sense of mourning for a man I never met, but affected my life enough with his music that I missed him anyways. That's how Pain Remains as a whole makes me feel.
This is my first time watching the pain remains part 2 and I can't stop crying really long enough to use my talk-to-text due to me being physically disabled this song hit home so bad I thought like this when I lost my mother I wanted my whole world to end. In my own way I tried to end it so I could be with her. The only thing that saved me I swear her spirit came to me and told me to stop and that I would be with her again one day but for right now I have to keep on living. I love you Mom I'll see you again someday but just not right now like you said
This band is something else. I have people who in a thousand years. I would never think of being metal fans, just being touched and moved. Thanks for doing this one Tank appreciate your words and openness. All the best man
I was unable to see the videos to the pain remains trilogy do to the fact that I’m almost totally blind. But even without the videos, this is still one of the most emotional pieces of music I have ever Hurd. To anyone reading this, know that your a good person and you can make it through tomorrow. Don’t ever give up! ❤
Having been on a mental health & well-being recovery journey myself, I echo the sentiments to reach out for help. After having 2 family members attempt ove the past couple of years, I've gone through some heavy stuff. I reached out to my doctor and he referred me to mental health therapist. I have to say it's the best thing that's happened to me in a long time. Someone who will listen to me without judgement and has the knowledge and expertise to give me the skills and tools to help. I know they can only show us the door, we have to walk through it. But with their help, walking through it is easier. Can't wait to see this reaction. Rock on Tank.
I love Tank.
He is not afraid to show emotion for tens of thousands to see, he is unbelievably humble, he speaks the truth and will always be honest with the audiance. I have nothing but the upmost love and support for you Tank. Don't stop being you and sharing with us your journey as a roadie and your music reactions.
We love you Tank
I think it’s really important for everyone to see the whole message behind the songs. Their guitarist Adam is in a way “speaking” a hell of a lot on these tracks. Just know it’s okay to feel how you feel. Don’t be afraid to speak about it. It’s healthy and encouraged. We got this.
These last 2 songs for sure have impacted me emotionally more than almost any other 2 songs I've heard ... during these last 2 years my mom went through chemotherapy for cancer, my best friend passed away and I made an attempt on my life just last December; I would not be here without my other friends constantly pushing me to seek help .. No matter what you're going through, at least try to get help!
I must admit. Lorna shore is quickly becoming the most beautiful and important metal bands in newer history. I can't remember the last time I sat speechless like I did with part 1 and 2. It's incredible to me that this genre can provoke these types of emotions in so many people.
Go back 5 years and nothing like this was as prevalent as it is now. Not to mention they just sound amazing.
Parts I and II both hit hard. Part III is going to be heavy and amazing. These videos got me crying every time.
I’m sorry for the loss of your friends. Your openness with these reactions is inspiring. Thank you for these reactions and sharing your experiences.
Oct 14 will be a great day for the metal community when the full album drops.
Less than 3 weeks until I see them live. This will be my first deathcore concert and I don't think I've ever been more excited for a show.
A month and 15 days for me. Also my first Deathcore show tho ive seen Aborted before (theyre amaaazing live). Enjoy!!
You should be. They are insanely good live, saw them in august. Im so jealous to everybody thats going to see the pain remains tour, I love all bands on it. (Im from germany so basically not possible to visit that tour)
Have a great time there!
They are amazing live man, I hope you enjoy them!! 🤘
I've lost myself. Struggeling hard with avoidant personality disorder and dysthymia. When I was younger , I had relationships, girlfriends, friends, a life. Now it's just isolation and solitude. With every "social emotion" still inside, not allowed to work. This hits home, way too hard. Because where does one go, when you don't even got yourself?
Anyways. Great reaction to a fuckin' masterpiece, yet again.
There’s warnings on that video for very good reasons. It really is that brutal. I think the second video hit harder for me than the first 👍
True words everyone should remember: If you reach out, there will ALWAYS be someone somewhere who will help.
I lost a friend to suicide in a similar method. I have also had my own struggles with mental health and have been in dark places. This hits close to home. 😢
I’m sorry for the loss of those important people in your life. I have been there, man. It’s rough.
Yup. At 'This fucking world" is the part that broke me in this one. The anger in Will's voice, the change in temp and not to mention what happens in the video
My twin brother took his own life a few months ago and it was totally unexpected and it’s been tremendously hard for me and my family to go through this because I haven’t went through loss like this ever and I discovered this pain remains ballad soon after that and it is one of my favorite pieces of music ever cause it was the most emotional I’ve ever gotten over music and I related so hard to it and it just felt like it was written about me and how I’m feeling and I’m sorry for all you’ve been through but thank you for sharing because it made me feel like I wasn’t alone and I’m sure a lot of others felt the same way. Thanks Tank. You’re a legend.
Definitely the hardest and moving song of this year. And the video has hit me more then anything for both. Lost the love of my life not even 2 years ago and I see myself cause everything is spot on. The pain of loss, the grief, the rage afterwards. And the thoughts of ending it. New favorite band. Definitely need to see them live
Love your reactions! Greetings from Colombia 🤘😎♥️
My favorite song on the album, but if I listen to it I’m listening to the entire trilogy in order. It just plays so well, feeding itself back to back
Love you Tank.
For someone who lost his wife and kids, this resonates with me very well. And truth be told, that suicide thing, that never goes far away. On an other note I always found it interesting how sometimes couples just die naturally within minutes or hours.
I think I've had more catharsis seeing people share their reactions to this amazing trilogy than all of the group therapy I've been to. Combat vet and 2 times attempted suicide survivor here and depression/CPTSD is a monster. That whole "you've won the battle but lost the war" quote feels apropos to suicide survival. It's not just one battle that you win and it's done. It's a war. Everyday. It's a long painful slog and if I didn't have my personal support systems in place I wouldn't be here. Lost my mom when she was 40, I was 21. Too many fallen friends both in actual war and the war raging inside our heads causing suicide. Thank you for being vulnerable, and poetic in your expressions Tank. I love you man.
This song is anger, hopelessness, emptiness and darkness in one package.!! Been there, done that. And i do not want to do that ever again!
As someone who has depression and went through a rocky divorce a few years ago and the ex was in a low state.. so was i... these last two songs have been so heartwrenching.. this is welcome to see. I have so much respect for Will and the rest of Lorna Shore for these tracks.. and posting the lifeline numbers. This is what the community needed.. the open communication and everything.
This hit really hard, again. The tranquillity of the actor perfectly represents the mood of those who perform an action perfectly aware of the result, and the video sync with the song it's perfect. I don't know what expect for part 3... but I want part 3... really great musicians, of another level... I love music because for me it's pure emotions, it's an experience, and depending of my mood, I switch genre... but this song, and part 1, fill my need... but the thing that shock me in a good way, it's that this flow of emotions came from a deathcore band... and it's great.
Normally this deathcore doesn't click with me, but for some reasons, and your reaction, these Lorna Shore songs do. They are so brutally intense. I can relate to you and many of your feelings about losing people you love. My best friend since school for 25 years, my teammate, my wedding witness, past away 3 years ago in a sudden aorta rupture. So live part 2 starts where I live without this person. I am happy and to be honest, is feels 'great' to feel the sadness again. In the end it is what I have left and I do find a spot and put on music that gets me sad for a few moments and miss him. I hope I can keep doing that forever now and then and this kind of pieces of music brings that. Thank you for putting it up here and thank Lorna Shore for creating it.
Man, even after listening to these songs and seen the music videos to them over the last year, the Pain Remains trilogy remains a tear jerker.
Something else I think is also important to talk about is reaching out to those you think are going through a rough time. Doesn't have to be direct to the point of what issues they may be going through, but it's showing you are there. Speaking from experience, when you are the one going through these emotions it's hard to make the first step and reach out. Because depending on what the issue is, it's a fear that no one will want to listen, a fear you'll lose more friends, a fear to find out you aren't as close as you thought you were with people you believed you were friends with, or if they are that they're too afraid to talk to you. The fear that you feel like you're left with nothing.
Ultimately, it comes down to the individual to take the first step and reach out if they're going through these issues. However, sometimes a "Hi. How are you doing?" is what someone needs the most. Because it is scary when you're filled with self-doubt, that whatever is bothering you you try to pretend that the issue doesn't matter. It kills me to this day, to finally break and speak your mind in a way that make different situations fit to what you say and end up hurting those close to you. Just the littlest things that pile up. Feeling like you don't matter, no one wants to hear you out, falling back into that cycle where you feel isolated when you don't want to be alone, listening to those thoughts on repeat when you have no one to help counter those thoughts.
I encourage people to reach out to those they think are going through this, because you might've been the only one who has reached out. It's not a happy thought to think about, but I've found almost everyone is too afraid to say anything if they suspect someone isn't doing well.
Thank you so much for being such an open man Tank! Thanks for showing yourself with total honesty, and share your emotions with us.
Adam de micco has made an amazing work with his guitar solos, such emotional and brutal sound 🖤
I am an interpreter, which means I go with people who don't speak English and talk for them. In my work I encounter, several times, people on the brink of total breakdown. And the worst part of interpreter's job is, we have to be neutral and don't engage emotionally so we can translate precisely what's being said. I mostly did, but after coming home I was falling apart completely. I even thought of declining those particular assignments, but I couldn't, I felt that I have to help any way I could. There came the time I had to talk to someone because of all the pain I came in contact with.
It's so important to get help before the inevitable happens.
Thank you Tank for you honesty and openness, that's what I respect you for. You don't shy away from difficult subjects.🙏
Wow, Ive never even thought about something like that before. That has to be extremely difficult, but im glad you were able to talk to someone about it.
28 years I've been here on this planet in this life. 28 years of ups, downs, and neutrals, and having been in 3 very serious car accidents that very well should have killed me in their own rights, I've considered myself lucky for those. But for the last 20 years, it's been more down than neutral or up. I've tried everything, and I mean everything. Drugs, alcohol, running, hiding, meds, you name it, I've tried it. I've never attempted and have only considered it twice, but these two songs hit extremely hard. I'm not even a Lorna Shore fan, and don't listen to deathcore all that much. But I respect the hell out of the lyricism in these two songs. They show that there's more to not just deathcore, but metal than people look at. Name a subgenre of metal and there's a song or several that have deep meanings and messages that hook an emotional chord to the masses, far more than any other genre I've listened to. These guys have definitely earned a fan out of me with these two songs, but as hard as they hit, there remains one other that hit harder, King of Misery by SAUL.
Amazing job by the guys in Lorna Shore. And if anyone in this comment section or in the discord needs anyone to talk to, I'll be here. I'm on discord in the server as TheSixthElement#1617. There is always someone out there willing to hear your voice and help. Thank you, Tank for two amazing reactions to two amazing songs.
And the most important thing is that this kind of emotions, deep, unbelievable emotions, are given to us by a DEATHCORE band. Metal is such a blessing. ❤
I saw Lorna Shore back in March at a small venue, I’m desperate to see them again after that they’ve recently released! 👏🏻🖤
Lost on of my close friends just 2 years ago to suicide. Have attempted suicide myself and have thought about it more since then. Men hurt and feel ashamed to talk about, BUT WE HAVE TO TALK ABOUT IT. Reach out to someone. Someone will listen and someone will care. Suicide leaves lasting effects on all the people that love you and regardless what anyone thinks, you are loved. Somebody out there cares. Tank, you are awesome and more men should be willing to be as emotional as you are, and should speak up about this topic. Thanks for putting yourself out there for us.
Relistening and rewatching this trilogy, is a journey in pain. You are one of the few i can rewatch over and over. And man Tank, i go through it with you everytime i watch your reactions. It doesn't stop the emotion no matter how often i watch it. Its like its the first time. Thanks for being an awesome react channel and being a cool ass dude to continue watching. Cheers
Sorry about what you're going through. I have lost loved ones to cancer.
As for the video, I was in that man's shoes ending included. When I lost someone in a particularly brutal way, I broke. When I decided to end it there was a wave of relief. I didn't tell anyone nor did I want to. Why would anyone want to stay in a world they are no longer able to connect with? My plan didn't work, obviously, but there isn't a day that I don't struggle with this. These songs shows those of us that don't talk to others that we aren't alone in our suffering. I have no doubt these songs are someone's lifeline.
Amazing real reaction I've lost too men just lost my father it's the worst process lorna put emotions into death core...just amazing
Man, this is so raw and heartfelt. Be safe Tank, and everyone that sees this. Lorna Shore have again proved they can go beyond the musical boundaries that often constrain artists and just 'do real life'. Outstanding craft, wonderful imagery and a genuine sense of care. Wow. Incredible stuff.
Thank you for being yourself and express the feelings you feel. I currently struggle to stay alive in the sense Im sick but also wanting to end the suffering. With these two videos I see myself losing my life and all I had from his perspective, while I also see myself in that bed with my family by my side hurting and what will come after if I die. A lot of feelings getting touched with these two songs.
Bruhhh i be tearing tf up watching these reaction videos 😭
Thank you for your open and honest reaction.
I keep coming back to these three songs whenever I need a good cry.
Thanks for being for so open and don't be sorry for stepping back for a minute there. It's a good sign of mental maturity that you know when you can handle something emotionally or not. No one should feel like they need to hold up a facade of "strength" for the public eye. I love that you share these moments with us and don't just hide them away 🤗
I lost a friend to cancer whom I had known since they moved to the US in the 1st grade. I will always think of them as one of my favorite people in the world, and it's hard to have a world without them in it.
I also have another friend who passed from liver failure in 2018 that I'd known since kindergarten, an ex who used to self-harm, another friend who left of their own choosing, one who was taken by their parent (who then took their own life), and several who have nearly left this world from driving while drunk. Thinking about all of the people I can never see again, or who almost wound up that way, I'm so grateful that they were/are in my life!
Thank you for always being open with your story and your heart, Tank. Being nearly the same age (32), helps me feel a stronger connection to you than I do with a lot of other TH-camrs (no idea why), and seeing your vulnerability is always so cathartic for me. Thank you doesn't feel like enough, but I 100% mean it every time I say it to you.
There's part 3 waiting for you, Roadie
Been super busy so late commenting…I just watched pain remains 3. This trilogy deserves an award for the videos and music- the most artistic thing I’ve seen in a long time. I straight up could not keep it together watching these. Just incredible on all ends.
I can’t watch/listen/feel this with dry eyes man wow, they captured something that touches everyone here it’s insane! I have NEVER heard something that has drawn out so much emotion in me both physically and mentally…..hats off to Lorna Shore
Both you and Lorna are a bunch of real ones dude, thanks
First I want to say I'm so sorry to hear about your friend and friends. If To The Hellfire hit like a train for its sheer epicness, this trilogy is like being locked in a sinking ship. Thank you for being so open. My cousin took her life when I was 19, she was 21. No one likes funerals, but that one was the worst fucking thing I have ever attended to. I didnt even know her that well, I learned her history afterwards. So much shit she was carrying and had happened to her. Her boyfriend found her. He started working early and she appeared to be sleeping so he went up and got to work, went home and she was there, exactly like in the morning. He checked out 2 years later, 24 years old. This trilogy hits me like nothing I have heard before.
Take care of people. Not talking kills people. Try to find out if someone needs help and reach out. It might actually save someone.
These guys have really created a revolution in terms of mental health and metal. It’s amazing.
I think it's great you're showing your emotions like this and are talking about the stuff that most people don't wanna talk about. We need this more!! F** the tough guy mentality, f** feeling ashamed for mental health issues! It's ok to not feel ok, it's ok to cry, it's ok to open up and to lean on someone. This is to everyone out there: You're never alone!!
Dude I’ve became obsessed with Lorna Shore and this album just absolutely words can’t describe murdered the way of metal. I’ve came close to crying so many times because I too have known of loved ones losing someone so dear to them and not knowing what to do.
I’m sure I’ll cry later on but I’ve NEVER had any type of song hit this hard to me. Thank you.
I watched both videos for the first time yesterday, and today is my 30th birthday. As a kid I never thought I'd live past 20, I was dead set to be gone by then after years and years of abuse, friends and family dying from suicide and cancer, even murder, yet here I am. 30 fucking years old, and I'm so glad to be alive. It's hard, and some days are worse than others, but I'm still hopeful.
We need to break the stigma surrounding mental health. Thank you for sharing, and I wish you all the best.
Thanks for the supportive words in these two videos. They're really important!
I’ve experienced an emotional issue or depression that has been with me for over 20 that’s probably pretty unusual. I have been so numb. Worried Maybe I’m a psychopath for not feeling anything, and em
ulating humanity in social setting. These 2 pieces of music have changed me. Over-fucking-welmed with human emotion… so painful, but I’m alive for the first time in so fucking long.
I wish the members of Lorna Shore knew how much impact they have had in the last couple of years. While not at risk for suicide, they may have saved me from a different sort of demise. So grateful.
I'm glad I discovered these reactions now. A couple nights ago I wasn't sure I'd survive the night. After passing out I woke up the next morning seeing these reactions starting with Charismatic Voice. And it helped hearing other people's opinions on suicide and self harm.
Thank you for sharing your own emotions with us. I would love to give you a hug right now. i also sad here crying during the videos... Its awesome but right in the feels...
i really appreciate your honest emotional reactions and words
See, now I just want to give him a hug.
Tank, never, ever feel the need to apologise for showing emotion.
For someone who has been on both sides of these two songs, it's very easy to relate to the main character. Only now, after 30 years, I've started to take my own mental well-being seriously. Being bullied my entire school years from 1st grade in elementary to end of graduation, having a toxic family relationships and overall the idea that "a real man never cries or complains". The sort of mentality I despise nowadays, to the core of my being.
I can't really cry much at all, outside listening to music. Nothing else really gets to me, 'cos I guess I was the frog in a boiling pot for so long. I'm hugely emotional person and very empathic towards other people, but crying is just something that doesn't happen almost never. When "And I Return to Nothingness" came over a year ago, that was one of those cases that broke me.
Having buried several friends and family members (including my father, who did commit a suicide) - and also being the one who has tried it several times - there was always someone who pulled me out of it, which I'm ever so thankful about. People do care and help is out there - but it can only reach you, if you are able to ask for that help.
Hope that whoever feels the same way gets some encouragement from the comments, and seeks help. You are worth it. ♥
It’s gets me too man. 😢. Every time. Empathy is a gift and curse
These songs are doing exactly what 13 Reasons Why has done, started conversations that need to be started.
Props to Lorna Shore for making something so beautifully heavy.
Tank, thank you, and everyone else, who promotes and supports anyone who is suffering mentally reaching out and getting the help they need. As someone who has fought a lifelong struggle with mental illness, I can speak personally as to how difficult it is to ever reach out and just...ask for an ear. It feels like a burden, like we're just adding undue stress or trouble to the other person/people (even though we're not), and it fucking sucks, dude
Thoughts of self-harm and suicide are constantly (but not always) accompanied by other behaviors. Increases in drinking, smoking, drug use, more reclusive or withdrawn behavior, a general lack of just...general interest in hobbies and activities the person usually enjoys. They don't wanna spend time with even those closest to them. And it's not because they suddenly hate anyone or anything, either. There's just...no joy in them, no enjoyment or happiness. And all of this is usually accompanied by thoughts of "I'm just a burden" or "I can't say anything, it's just a nuisance" or similar. The self-doubt and hopelessness is all-consuming and all too real, and it's a bitter battle to fight, let alone every day for weeks or even months on end
I've tried multiple times to take my own life at this point, but I always end up backing down because someone says something or does something that reminds me that I still have a place here in this world. I have a semicolon tattoo on my left wrist now to remind me that my story isn't over, that it's just a break in the sentence before a new line begins. It's not a sign of weakness, but a symbol of strength, a reminder that in the end, I had the will to keep going
If there's anything someone reading this takes away, please make it a reminder to be kind and just...remember to reach out, whether you're suffering or you suspect someone else is. Just be a good person, be a good human being, and be a good friend. We're all we have, and we are our best resource, for ourselves and others. Don't be afraid to actually use that resource. I wish everyone well \m/
I tied a lot of what I experienced in my very young life to these two videos. I've lost a friend to suicide, made a couple attempts myself, even had to help bury a loved one. It hurts, and yes, it always hurts. Pain Remains, always. But pain is inconsequential of the life we live, love is what makes us despite the pain. Give your closest people hugs, tell everyone you love that you love them. Everyone is going through something, every action builds up. Remember that you are loved, no matter what the demons say.
I'm about to be 34 myself. Everything you said at the end I relate to. Everything you said is so painfully right. These videos hit me to my core, and I love them for it. Thank you for expressing that this is not something to bury. It's not being strong, or being a man, or whatever nonsense people tell themselves. No, if you're in this place, get help. Nobody deserves to be here.
The harsh music encompasses all the internal frustrations and screams all men internalize, beautifully combined with how deep our emotions run for those we truly love. In all of my 35 years I absolutely have never watched a song that encapsulates it in this way.
I love you for sharing this with us. To allow us to live through you. I’ve lost three childhood friends in the military, in the early 2000’s, while I served. Also lost a good friend to suicide.
To this day there isn’t a day that goes by that I don’t think about all of them.
Not everyone reached out for help. Sometimes they feel like they’re sparing you from the “trouble” of worrying and just “disappearing.”
Over the years, I’ve felt the same way many times. I’ve come close. The people I’ve lost were better than me. Had more to give. And it never stops hurting. We only cope by ignoring it, as men. If we don’t; we’ll self-destruct. And then it feels like a betrayal to them.
Fuck man, I have no words of wisdom or stories of loss to share. Just FUCK, how many times can I sit here and cry in front of my computer over these songs? The fact that they can pull this much emotion out of me as well as everyone else it seems, its almost overwhelming. Thank you Tank for sharing with us.
I ABSOLUTELY IDOLISE YOUR OPENNESS AND UNDERSTANDING YOURE AN AMAZING PERSON!!
This reaction broke me, as did the video. I've struggled with suicidal tendencies for the last 10 years, and it's fucking terrifying. This music speaks to me in a way not many bands can. Thank you for your amazing and honest reactions and discussions. I hope everyone is doing great. Please call someone if you ever feel this way. No one deserves to feel this way.
Appreciate your Honest, Real and Emotional Reaction. Hang in There ❤
I'm not usually the type of person to leave comments, but dude, I genuinely love your content. I've been following you for a while now and you've really quickly become one of the few channels I regularly come back to. Not only is your deep connection to the music something I very strongly relate to, but I just really love how genuine your reactions are, and how open you are about all these difficult but important topics. Being so open about your struggles, feelings and such is never easy to do, and to do it in front of your entire audience takes even more strength. Really respect you for that and truly appreciate you bringing attention to all these things and fighting against the toxic mindsets that are unfortunately still around. Also love seeing so many people in the comments backing up these thoughts. Truly makes me feel like there's still hope after all.
These two Lorna singles have really hit like a brick to the face, I don't think I've ever cried so much over a song (& its video) as much as I have with these.
I'll stop blabbering now, but really, thank you for the genuine and great content. ❤
The humanity and purity of your heart and soul on full display here is enough to invoke emotions that I had lost touch with…
I love you, & I am sorry to hear what you’re going through!
Truly! ❣️❤️😢
Man Im back here after 2/3 Months and I just thought how cool it would be if you did another reaction to all three Pain Remains parts in a single reaction.
Love the content and I saw Will and the Guys in Frankfurt with Parkway drive. They are amazing. Love from Germany❤
most emotionally resonant deathcore songs I've ever heard, lorna shore are killing the game right now
Good on you for showing that it's okay for men to cry. I recently lost my father to cancer so I can definitely empathise with your situation. Just remember that you can only do what you can do and your friend will certainly appreciate you being there for them.
I just lost a dear friend to cancer he was a metal head to the core and I’ve been listening to these songs on repeat since they came out gives me goosebumps . Miss him a lot
I feel you man. Mde it almost halfway until i burst in to tears 🙈😢
Thank you for being so open with your reactions and emotions. For reasons many people still don't quite understand, music hits humans in a very special and unique way. Surely there must be music within all of us, and when we hear music that resonates with the internal music that brings our emotions to the surface. And as I've found over the years, any genre of music can resonate with someone out there to the point of revealing our emotions.
The themes explored in the Pain Remains trilogy are really, _really_ heavy stuff, and Lorna Shore's really, _really_ heavy music is in many ways an ideal vessel to explore those themes with. The relentless speed and intensity can represent that very intensity most of us experience with the loss of a loved one. And Will's vocals have the perfect blend of sadness, desperation, and anger.
Sometimes we need hard music to better explore these hard topics, and I love that Lorna Shore gave us these works of art to aid us in our own explorations.
I didn't come here for the emotional message at the end but I definitely stayed for it. I have mad respect for you for not only being real and showing your own emotions. But also for addressing how it's been engrained in our minds that having emotions is a weakness and how that leads to more death. I hope you're doing alright man.
I've said it in Live chat and I'll say it here, ever since this song dropped, I've been waiting for this reaction. It will have been a tough one to film I have no doubt. Love your openness and honesty.
Tears were falling here brother. This ripped my heart out and crushed in then put it back in my chest.
I am trying to find words for this after watching Part 1 and 2 on Pain Remains. My tears couldn't come out until you started the aftertalk just after the music on this finished. Thats when I broke down on this. Thanks to you I watched this, and I don't regret it. ♥
Respect you for doing this and talking so openly. You're helping to normalize talking about your feelings and dealing with it in a healthy way. I also respect that you didn't censor the music video out of fear of being demonetized.
