The REALITY Of What Goes Into A Move Abroad | [OCTOBER 20 RELEASE]

In this video I'll give you an update about moving to Germany with my family. I'm in full on prep and advance mode for an upcoming tour, and with the US government shutting down, we've had some interesting challenges that we may not have normally faced. BUT... It'll be worth it in the long run, and once it's done, it's done.

The #1 Metal Band You're Probably MISSING Out On | [8 OCTOBER RELEASE]

For people that watch my channel, it's no secret that I love Orbit Culture and have been telling everyone that I think they're the future of heavy metal, but I still think so many people are sleeping on this Swedish metal band. With the release of their new album, they just dropped a brand new song and video that I wanted to do a music reaction ...

Moving To Germany Is WAY Harder Than I Thought... | [22 SEPTEMBER RELEASE]

The moving process from the U.S. to Germany has presented unexpected obstacles. I was really ignorant to the process of moving to a new country, especially with all the immigration guide requirements, visas, and selling a house while trying to move. Here's an update on my journey to becoming an expat and moving to Germany.

It's Happening... WE'RE MOVING TO GERMANY | [5 SEPTEMBER RELEASE]

Yes, IT'S ACTUALLY HAPPENING. Who would have thought when I started my channel 5 years ago and reacted to a random German band, it would have snowballed into eventually moving there. Can't thank everyone enough for the support and all of the help up to this point.

What REALLY Happens When Shows Get Cancelled | [AUGUST 13 RELEASE]

Ronnie Radke and Falling In Reverse have cancelled more shows on their current God Is A Weapon Tour, and as usual, the internet is throwing out some wild statements and, at times, outright lies about why.

It's been almost 2 years since I last checked out a Falling In Reverse video on my channel, but everyone has been talking about this one (and it features Hardy, who I love), so I had to see this one...

Is This The Most PUNISHING Metal Song of 2025? | [JULY 21 RELEASE]

For my first music reaction in a while, I'm checking out the latest Orbit Culture single, and my first impression was NOT what I was expecting from them given their previous releases. They just released what could be the most brutal metal song of 2025, and they prove that you don't need crazy fast parts to do it.
