Without a doubt! Dude is a torch carrier for sure! Seen Flo-Jet a few times now and he crushes every time as with the rest of the band. One of the most underrated bands around yet top notch.
Those fucking connected bridges...Does Erik even have a break from one register to another? It's the same voice from chest to head and back again which means he likely knows Appoggio. That's one hell of a Diaphragm technique that guys like RJD did and Bruce does!
Hell yeah!Flotsam has not stopped putting out albums and they play in Europe at Hellfest among other festivals there. They also play shows in Phoenix were they all live.
The legendary Ken Mary!! Absolutely amazing drummer. He gives F&J a serious kick in the pants and has breathed new life into them. So thankful he's in the band!
I remember back in 2016 on the Europe Under Attack tour, I saw these guys perform a show I'll never forget!!! 🤘🤘 The pit went wild to Flotsam & Jetsam!!!!
In order to sing with the same tonality no matter where his voice is at in his range is a sure sign he knows Appoggio (the act of leaning the whole 360 degrees of the diaphragm into the lowest ab muscles) just like Bruce and RJD. That's some advanced shit right there!
@@SchwermetallischTV Hubby's killing himself trying to master it! I told him to just go back to speech level method that only emphasises basic support and getting bridges right. But he says it's not very metal friendly (and he's too damn stubborn to give up on anything anyway...lol)
I'd swear Erik's vocals have gotten more powerful with age. Some of the sickest drumming on any Flots track in memory. The bass, the guitars... this is really really great! Looking forward to the rest of the album!
Insane range, low trunk support, pitch, projection and resonance that you don't hear enough of in Thrash! Not to put down Thrash vocals. I mean, Tom has some of these elements in his voice, Billy was trained by the same vocal coach that taught huge names like Sinatra and it shows in his ability to mix registers as easily as most people mix drinks! Joey Belladonna is a thrash god of voice and even his successor, John Bush, deserves a nod. But Erik is the fucking Symphonic Metal voice of Thrash!
Eric AK is a beast of a vocalist !!! This band is criminally underrated and seem to be getting better and better and remaining hungry and passionate about delivering kick ass metal !!! Flotz til death !!!!
One of the best...no doubt about it. If you've been listening to metal for 40 years, then you have undoubtedly heard him before. Fifth Angel, TKO, Chastain, Alice Cooper, Impellitteri, House of Lords, Bad Moon Rising, etc. Ken has quite the resume.
@@MeTuLHeD I'm from Cincinnati and was in a few metal bands back in the day. I've met David T Chastain several times and one of my bands Damn near got signed by him.
Hey guys! I just like your music, the riffs are really heavy!! As a musician, I understand the effort it takes to achieve such sound. Keep up the good work 👍
This band has been great since their inception. Ken Mary adds an entire new dimension of power and precision. He’s been a monster drummer since I first heard him on Ruler of the Wasteland back in 86.
I love CHASTAIN´s "Ruler of the Wasteland" too! I would never have imagined seeing and listening to the same drummer from that album (35 years later!) * after being part of "soft" bands like FITH ANGEL, HOUSE OF LORDS, .... (I like them too, by the way ) ...... Playing at this level of speed / precision, and like a Beast! with a band like FLOTSAM AND JETSAM !!!! Definitely, all my admiration for the Musical level that KEN MARY (and the rest of the band, of course!) Continues to show many years after its beginnings * I think ERIK's voices are the best I've ever heard him! And I will even say that his singing has evolved incredibly over the years! Fuck!!! Young "metalheads" ..... Take note of how the veterans kick your ass Best wishes from BILBAO! (Basque Country -Spain)
I'm at a loss for words, this song is fucking great!! Eric AK is still one of the best ( if not the best ) metal vocalists out there and Ken Mary is killing it on the drums ( definitely top notch ), the song writing is really strong and aggressive and this is the shot in the arm that metal needs FLOTZ TILL DEATH
well actually they never released a bad album. I kinda like everyone of them so far, no matter what style they were going for on each one. But yeah, since The Cold they kinda stepped the game up to another level ;-)
i want to thank f & j for producing great music my whole life ive been a fan. still just as powerful as ever! way down deeper than ever before! rock on brothers!
I saw that there was a new song. I dropped everything and hit play. I mean this band is hitting on all cylinders! I am just absolutely blown away! Better and better. Time to lay waste to all others!
Always dug the shit out of this band especially being an Az Native myself. Back in the 80’s right before they they released Doomsday for the Deceiver Eric came to are little town of Cottonwood Az with another band Enforce to play at our hangout the infamous B.B.s Billiards only to guest vocal on a song and after the show Eric and the sound guy ended hanging and partying out with us locals and we were gifted with a demo tape they called Flotsam Badness which was of course the Doomsday album. Talk about a bunch of happy Metalhead teenagers it was awesome🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽
these from flotsam and jetsam have gone crazy, better and better, the last 3 albums are gorgeous but this is superlative. Metallica can also see how music is made !!
Why even bring Metallica up at all? For one thing, I don't think Metallica needs pointers by anyone on how to make music, or great albums. Secondly, what does that have to do with F&J? Just celebrate a great band, and enjoy their new album.
Damn! Always when you think F&J is no more... BANG!!! They come back with something new and kick ass... Vocally, very strong! Amazing riffs and the Drums... holy crap! Good Work guys
They've outlasted all their contemporaries, consistently top notch, Erik still has the pipes and whoever is in the lineup over the years have been nothing short of superb.
Oh man... I am so happy that I watched them live in London just before COVID start... this is perfection... every new Album they become better!!! Modern with a nostalgia effect. Love!!!
Holy Crap!!! Picking my jaw back off of the floor!!! Just when you think Flotz can’t get any better they drop this hammer! They have been able to do what most other classic metal bands can never do? Sound even better, hungrier, and more energetic than on previous albums!?! Most underrated band ever! Hope they finally get the full credit they deserve!!!
Jason who? Everyone that thought F&J would sink without Newsted, open your eyes and ears. Not taking anything away from him, but one bassist does not a band make. Glad to see 'old' thrash still tearing it up.
My Favourite Thrash Band over all those Fukin´ Years of Decay... Grew up with them in the Glory Eighties of Thrash Metal........"7 Seconds til the End of the World"...Best Song in Thrash Metal since a long fukin´ Time.....Eric...You are still kickin Ass.....!!!...Hell Yeah....!!!
@@benbergan6019 oh, ok. I was never a fan of Metallica. I like some od their old songs. (Fade to Black) etc... But never really followed them. Thx for update
@@benbergan6019 oh fuck it. Jason was only a member of this band in the early days till the release of the debut. And he was never responsible for the signature sound of the band they released their best record "no place for disgrace" with absolutly no credits by Jason at all. I recommend no place, end of chaos, the cold, Cuatro and Drift.
Goddamn, Erik is a fucking beast of a vocalist. Still killing it on every release. His voice has never let up. Incredible!
I saw him live and he really delivers high tones
Absolutely! 🤘🤘
Without a doubt! Dude is a torch carrier for sure! Seen Flo-Jet a few times now and he crushes every time as with the rest of the band. One of the most underrated bands around yet top notch.
Seriously. His vocals.
He has been keeping his vocals in top notch, kick ass form - since day 1.
Those fucking connected bridges...Does Erik even have a break from one register to another? It's the same voice from chest to head and back again which means he likely knows Appoggio. That's one hell of a Diaphragm technique that guys like RJD did and Bruce does!
Flotsam and Jetsam never disappoint!!!
I just discovered this band and damn, I'm so glad I did. They are very epic and badass. I'll definitely check their whole discography 👍🔥
Eric AK is a LEGEND. Flotsam and Jetsam are Awesome. Always have been, Always will be. Great live band. Can't wait to see them again.
I got to meet and see them with Hammerfall in Cleveland back in 2018. Nicest and coolest guys you'd ever meet, same with Hammerfall.
Came through ad stayed for music
AK has maintained his unique vocals through all of these years...he's definitely a leader in the field..
Amaaaziiiiiinngggg...!!!!!!
Thirty six years later, and still tearing down the skies with amazing metal attitude. Awesome!
Ken Mary always is on top of the game ! He is One of my favourite drummers ever !
Thank you for the kind words Dennis!!
@@kenkmaryofficialyou are welcome ; ☺️
R u playing Phoenix tomorrow and Tucson Saturday@@kenkmaryofficial
So talented, all of them! But Eric A.K. always steals the show with his presence and singing.. Voice sounds so heavy, the older the better!
I love this band since 1986, hello from brazil!!!! Amazing song!!!!
me too
Killer oldschool awesome come back!!!😎🤘
Those who happen upon this song who have ever heard of this band will immediately seek out their whole catalog and will never be disappointed!!!
Except for their mid late 90's catalogue I would say
@@serroche I actually like that era of the band but it was way different and slower than early F & J and even the more recent stuff.
@@Mysterious_Grimpond Lots of great songs in that era.
Been a fan since the first album. Glad to see that Michael Gilbert and Eric AK are the OG members of the first album and going strong.
Interesting. Had no idea that this band evolved like this. WOW.
Hell yeah!Flotsam has not stopped putting out albums and they play in Europe at Hellfest among other festivals there. They also play shows in Phoenix were they all live.
Their last several albums have been bangers!
This is how it´s done ! Everything sounds perfect, amazing singing, great guitar solo and and and and. How good was that ?!
The drums in this song are kick ass
Thank you for the kind words!!
@@kenkmaryofficial 46 was not kidding... DAMN SON

Blast song! Ken Mary killing the drums, what a drummer!
Thank you for the kind words my friend!
@@kenkmaryofficial Your drumming is insane Ken! Follow you since 1986 debut album of Fifth Angel my friend!
Very appreciated, and very glad to hear that!!
@@kenkmaryofficial Yes , your drumming is brilliant, as always. Can we also expect new Fifth Angel stuff this year?
@@kenkmaryofficial KILLER Drummer man! can't wait to hear him rip it up on the rest of the record!
Flotsam still producing killer metal is an awesome thing and Erik sounds amazing to this day..............
Such an underrated band
I remember back in 2016 on the Europe Under Attack tour, I saw these guys perform a show I'll never forget!!! 🤘🤘
The pit went wild to Flotsam & Jetsam!!!!
A.K. is like wine, the older the better! Amazing! Hope to see you guys touring in Brazil!!
that dude is the DIO of Thrash, what a fucking great voice!!!

Mark Osegueda from Death Angel is also great.
I remember DFTD. I can't believe they are still around kicking ass.
Eric AK, killing it on vocals since 1986! Can’t wait for the new album! Flots till death\m/
There was a moment around a while ago I was worried the band would disband, but F&J releases albums so frequently lately, and they're awesome!
Eric AK is a beast of a vocalist !!! This band is criminally underrated and seem to be getting better and better and remaining hungry and passionate about delivering kick ass metal !!! Flotz til death !!!!
Still one of the best singer in the style!
Old Flotsam is my all time fav..
That's how it's supposed to be, an incredible rock drive !!!
Great Track!
I haven't game them a thought since the 90s. Damn I was missing out! Guess I gotta binge some albums
It's great, very Helloween in their pomp
El título de la canción 🎶 recuerda a una de los alemanes.
Perfect! No other words
Its about time some of the good old bands are putting out new music finally!!
Love the drummers style..definitely makes the song!!!
Thank you for the kind words Missy!!
Holy shit! Now THIS is Metal!! I've been listening to metal for 40 yrs and think ive just listened to the best drummer I've ever heard.

👍
So sick, Flotsam and Jetsam have yet another above-tier Metal album on the way to satiate the fans, can't wait!
We may have been satiated for now. But, we will come back. FOR MORE
They have been killing it since The Cold. Quite a resurgence. Looking forward to hearing more

This is best FJ song I've heard and that's saying something! Love this!!!
It's Perfect!
Great tune! Nice guitar sound, too.
Damn! Always when you think F&J is no more... BANG!!! They come back with something new and kick ass... Vocally, very strong! Amazing riffs and the Drums... holy crap! Good Work guys
