You guys should really dig into the Godsmack catalogue. Songs like Moon Baby, Whatever, I Am, Under Your Scars, Keep Away and Bulletproof are just a few of the gems. 🤘🔥🔥🤘

The first 3 albums and the acoustic album were really good. After that Godsmack became nothing special. I do admit they are awesome live. I saw them open up for Metallica after Godsmack released the Faceless album. 90 minutes of Godsmack and 3.5 hours of Metallica.

*Everyone thinks this song is solely about Nikki Sixx from Motley Crue, and parts of it are. But the song itself is inspired by the drummer of Godsmack, Shannon Larkin. Larkin is a huge Raiders fan. The Raiders were playing the Chargers in a playoff game when ex Chargers Quarterback Philip Rivers threw an interception. Rivers was seen on the sideline crying. So Larkin told Sully Erna (singer) to write a song called "Cryin' Like A Bitch". Sully loved it so he did. Larkin came up with the title and Sully wrote the lyrics. For Larkin, this song will forever be about Quarterback Philip Rivers. For Sully, it's more towards Sixx. It's open to interpretation since anyone hearing this song has their own person or ppl in mind.*

​@@warlord1002 Here's the interview. "Whatever happened with Godsmack and Motley Crue, the fallout has been the subject of much documentation. Godsmack drummer Shannon Larkin revisited the topic in a recent video chat with That Jamieson Show. In discussing the song's inception, the drummer reminded rock fans that it was he who came up with the title of "Cryin' Like a Bitch." His inspiration for it came from watching Rivers shed a tear on the sidelines during a football game between the NFL's Raiders (then located in Oakland, Calif.) and the Chargers (with whom Rivers played at the time and were located in San Diego). "I came up with 'Cryin' Like a Bitch' about Philip Rivers because I'm a Raiders fan," Larkin explained. "They needed to win in the playoffs. At the end, Philip Rivers threw, of course, he threw the interception, or whatever he did. So, there he is on the sideline with a tear glistening on his eye. So I told Sully, 'Oh my God, dude. Write a song called 'Cryin' Like a Bitch.'' And he [said], 'That's rad.' He loved it." Further, the drummer indicated, the reported bad vibes on Crue Fest 2 probably weren't as bad as they were later made out to be. "That Motley tour was fun for everybody," Larkin added. "Later on, Nikki Sixx [said Godsmack] didn't have fun on the tour. Whatever - we had fun. … Just there were certain things that pissed our guy [Erna] off, and so he pissed their guy [Sixx] off, and those guys are very strong-willed dudes." Still, the song is in some ways about Sixx. Once Larkin coined the title, Erna wrote the lyrics to the track. As the drummer has suggested before, that leaves the tune's meaning more open to the listener's interpretation than being about any one individual. But to him, it's all about Rivers. "Sully is a singer that likes to write all the lyrics and sing his own words," Larkin said in 2011, "so he went ahead and wrote that song. I don't want to speak for him but I know that certain lines were directed at Sixx and only because there were some clashes of egos on the … tour we did. There certainly were some words said. I think that's how the whole rumor started that the song was about Nikki, but in reality, the song was about Philip Rivers. Raiders, baby!"

It went further than that. Apparently they were playing in Godsmack's home town and Sixx banned the guys from Godsmack from having their families come backstage, because he didn't want to be bothered. Obviously, Sully was incensed about this.

@ Matt Osborn Only partially true. It was the second year of Crüe Fest (Crüe Fest meaning The Crüe headlines), and Sully didn’t like how Nikki had certain expectations and expected to be treated like the rockstar he is. The Crüe are from a time when a band was “taken care of”, Godsmack came of age in the 90’s and was lucky to get a cheese plate and case of beer provided backstage from the promoter. Sully simply thought that Nikki/The Crüe were acting like ridiculous divas.

@@billybee3423 The first time I saw Crue in their Kickstart My Heart tour they rocked. I saw them again at Crue fest II, 2009 I think it was, and it was a horrible. I believe they were lip-syncing their Kickstart My Heart album for the entire show. Everything was just too on point with that studio album and they didn't do anything else, if you get my meaning? Tommy Lee wasn't even on the drums. Instead he walked around the stage with a mic, and did a rap song of his toward the end of the show. They were a complete disappointment. If it hadn't been for Godsmack, Drowning Pool, and others; I would've called the concert a complete flop. Crue did not earn their place as the headliner that night, not even close, and the concert actually would've been better if they weren't even there!

It's about time you get into Godsmack!! I love their music!

Yes this song about Nikki Sixx from Motley Crue and Sixx Am there was some kind of altercation between the two a few years ago at a concert or something.

Every once in a while Lex makes a comparison between bands sounds or influences that makes me pause for a moment and then nod my head in agreement to a connection that had never occurred to me before

This is classic Brad "trying to figure it out" while Lex is over there just vibing "hell yeah".......awesome.

'Keep away' by this band forever will be connected to my 3 month stay in NY early 2000. As a Dutchie doing a 3 month internship there was the best ! Driving around in the car exploring NY and CT, i would turn it all the way up when 'keep away' came on. Still have the CD somewhere which I bought in the Virgin record store on Times Square.

I got my friend this CD for his birthday many years ago. Good times. This is one of my fave Godsmack songs

Godsmack is my go to when I'm angry! Always make feel better. Whatever and Keep away two of my faves.

Ooh I love this band! Whatever is my angry song ,I play it to get frustrations! Always works 😤😁

Love you guys. Great reactions every time. Brad you were making me laugh on this one

FINALLY!!! I have been dying for you guys to react to Godsmack!! They are definitely my favorite band & this is one of my fav songs!! It's the only band I know that does not have one bad song, they're all great!! Yall should do more!! Awesome reaction guys!! 💯 Thanks!! ❤

Unforgettable is one of my favorite songs. I get full chills every time I watch the video.

I love how Lex really gets into the beat of the music. She would be fun to rock out at a concert.

I like the Motley story. Saw Godsmack open for them and blow them out of the water. I'm a big Motley fan, but they faded in later years.

Their first album is off the chain ,, every song on there is good ,. Voodoo my fav off the album , t

All I can say is I saw these guys roughly 20 years ago at The Cleveland College Convention Center and They Just Rock...

I saw an interview Sully did with Aaron Lewis where he started talking about the effect music has on you. How a simple melody can invoke such intense emotion. He seemed to think there was a spiritual element to it which I found very interesting.

He didn't get too deep into it but what he scratched the surface of was very interesting.

I saw Godsmack at St.Charles(St. Louis) arena. I security guard try to throw a kid out for moshing. Sully stopped the concert and had the security guard removed before he would finish the show. It was awesome to see him stick up for a fan.

First concert was Black Sabbath, Godsmack, and Drain S.T.H in 1999.

You should watch the godsmack drum battle. Their drummer and their lead singer. It's a good time for sure

Bout time! I’ve been asleep on the channel for a bit!

Y'all need to watch the GodSmack drum battle live. It's from a live CD they put out. Freaking incredible drumming by two amazing Percussionists.

The first song I had heard from Godsmack "Whatever" hooked me on these guys right away. Checkout Go Away and Bad Religion.

1 of their best! 🤘👍

Hey we found a heavy one that Brad likes.😀 Like the crunch in this song

Great band

This is a song about Peanut M& Ms While on tour with Motley Crue ... bassist Nikki Sixx acting a fool about how his MMs weren't arranged to his standards.. and Sully confronted him a few times about his actions.. words were exchanged and the song was born lol

Godsmack has some good ones, for sure. Gonna go ahead and suggest "The Game" by Disturbed as a follow up... Typical, aggressive, dynamic sound that Disturbed does so well.

This song was about Nicky Sixx from Motley Crue ,after thay went on tour and opened for them,they didn't get along.

My favorite Godsmack song has always been Voodoo.

Godsmack- 1000 horsepower is a great driving song!

Need to check out Whatever and Bulletproof.

Yes! Pantera Walk is an Awesome song!!!

Hope you both are well

I like their unplugged acoustic album the other side tbh that shits smooth

Sully is the President of the-He Man Woman Haters Club-some of his many of his duties. Great musician.

Godsmack - Whatever... PLEEEEAAAAASE

The lead singer wrote the lyrics about one of the guys from Motley Crue

Dream Theater - Through her eyes (Live scenes from New York)

Yes "LIAR" from Megadeth is a must it's the only time you'll hear Dave Mustaine rap

I'm eagerly awaiting for you guys to dive into Ice Nine Kills. Hands down, their album was album of the year last year. All their songs are about famous horror movies. You might want to "ease" into them, but do the lyrics videos, and you will ESPECIALLY appreciate the songs if you have seen the movies their based on. I would recommend starting with "Grave Mistake" (based on the crow) or "Shower Scene" (based on Psycho. But you really can't go wrong. Some are much heavier than others. Oh and I'm sure you guys know of Resident Evil, so I recommend checking out the music video for "Rainy Day".

Hey Brad & Lex, hope you're well :) been watching your content for a while now, just thought I'd suggest some songs for you to listen to Dead or alive - you spin me round (like a record) , Wham! - club tropicana , The stone roses - fools gold - All best, James x

Some have speculated that this song is directed toward Vince Neil of Motley Crue. Not sure how accurate that is though. Although Sully had some beef with Vince on the CrueFest tour.

I beg you guys to watch the videos and have the lyrics up to read. To see Sully (the lead singer) and how that sound comes out of that little body. Plus he can play guitar AND drums (and isn't hard on the eyes at all. LOL) Godsmack is amazing and I rarely see anyone react to them which is a total bummer.
