YES! He is underrated. IMO, though, part of that is because he is so physically reserved when he plays live. He appears so stoic. I just wanna see him let loose and their down when he is shredding it like he does. Most kickass guitarists get into it more then they are tearing it up on a solo, but Rombolo just stands so still when he plays. I never focus my visual attention on him at their shows because there really is nothing to see. I can enjoy his skill through my ears while watching the other guys really "perform" on the stage. 🤷‍♀️

A bit of Godsmack trivia for you, since you like Alice In Chains too. When Godsmack was new and searching for a name, they turned to the name of songs from all their one favorite band, AiC. They went with the song “God Smack”, from the album “Dirt”, which is hanging right behind you on the wall. As a fan of both, I would recommend Godsmack’s “Bad Magic”, to me it’s their hardest. AiC, all their songs are my favorites lol. Dirt is like Guns and Roses Appetite for Destruction. I can listen to both straight through over and over and never get tired. But, I love an odd ball song AiC has called “shame in me”. You need to check out the drum battle videos with Sully, Godsmack’s lead singer, and their drummer. Both have their own drum riser and kits and both tear it up. I think this is the best one if memory serves… m.kzread.info/dash/bejne/m35sj9SYmMebgLw.html

There's several 90s albums I can listen top to bottom on repeat without skipping a track. Dirt, Ten, Core, Purple, Antichrist Superstar mainly. Personally don't put appetite or any Godsmack on that list. Godsmack is one of my AiC favs though.

Godsmack's first album was a front to back banger of an Album. A rare gem. When their second album came out, I was so excited, but it was far down the ladder in how good it was and left me feeling they spent their entire lives on the songs in the first album, and only had a year on the second and it shows big time. At least that was my take. After that, I didn't really follow the band. I did go see them live, sometime after their second album and it was not a good experience. Was outside in a venue with multiple bands (basically a large field with several stages and no seats at all) in July, extremely hot, had gotten there early (was looking forward to it) and was front row. It was a miserable experience and the music sounded bad. When I could listen to it without straining with every muscle in my body to not get crushed by the ebb and flow of the crowd surges behind me.

@ShadowRyu Actually a lot of people in his hometown and around Boston don't like him. I know a FEW people that knew him personally. He stepped on a lot of people in the early years.

So, in case you didn't know...Sully Erna, the lead singer, was originally the drummer. He had a hard time finding a singer for his band, and finally got so fed up after auditioning DOZENS of singers that he decided to become the singer himself. He is very drum- and rhythm-based in his guitar playing. He also plays piano...he's an all-around very talented musician!

When I sang in a band in the early 2000s, this song was probably my best cover work. A definite crowd pleaser at the time...

'Whatever this is" lol! In Sullys words, hard rock groove with an attitude! I suggest I Stand Alone or Serenity next. In Serenity you really get to hear Sullys natural voice without the growling and it's just a beautiful yet heart wrenching song about Rush drummer Neil Peart. He lost his wife and then his daughter the next year, and he wrote a book called The Ghost Rider. Sully read the book and wrote Serenity. I Stand Alone on the other hand brings the full fucking bells and whistles! 🤘🤘 My wife and I have seen them 10 times, the best is when they opened up for Metallica in 05'. And we were right in the front! One of the Best shows we've Ever been too!

Welcome to the Godsmack rabbit hole! I used to work at a small club back in the day. Godsmack performed an acoustic set. It blew me away! They hit hard and full of tasty riffs... I did security for Sully during/after the show, he went out into the crowd and just talked to people for 30+ minutes signing autographs, taking pictures and answering questions. Such a genuine guy. It blew me away on how little he is (I'm 6'4") and allllll that sound comes out of him! Enjoy your journey!!!

Missed the premiere for today’s uploads. Just catching them now. Reading the comments seems like a lot of people enjoyed this. Make sure to give them more down the road🤘

Get ready for some therapy....ear therapy by Sully!🎵💎

Out of town for a funeral and I come back and find so many excellent reactions! Thanks for this!

Keep the Godsmack coming!! Drum battle time. Look it up brother.

Literally the entire first album is amazing.

1000 Horsepower is one of my favorite songs by them

I was 9 when this album dropped, and I ate that shit up. It was one of the most popular hard rock albums of the late 90's and early 00's.

These guys catalog is pretty amazing!!!

You should check out their live drum battle called "Batalla de Los Tambores"! I promise you, bruv, it'll blow your mind!!

I just saw Godsmack in concert last month. Amazing band and they sound just as good live.

They sound the same in concert as they do on CD or on stream. They are awesome in concert. They tour alot still and if you have to fly to see them then do it because they are a band you don't want to miss. They are 2 years from being around for 30 years and they still kick ass

I love the little corner of your eye “Molly looks” to give us! It’s like I know what you’re thinking😮 and you know that I know you know what I’m thinking and we’re just getting it, lol

I have seen Godsmack 6 times since around 2003, they are so great LIVE!!

So glad to see you starting your journey further into Godsmack! They're my favorite band of all time, just barely beating out A Perfect Circle. Their entire discography is amazing and they haven't yet released a song that isn't good! Sully's motto for picking songs to put on their albums has been, "I don't want to put any song on an album that we don't think could be a single hit. Every song on our albums could be a single." I'm paraphrasing a bit, but that's been Sully and Godsmack's motto about how they've made their music. Cheers from across the pond!

Great reaction and an amazing rabbit hole to go down! Serenity and Voodoo are definitely musts for any Godsmack fan! Rock it on! Oi Oi Oi!

They are AMAZING live! Been to at least 7 of their shows. 😊

Oooh, one of my favorites. Gonna love this one!

So glad you love these guys. Can't wait for more. Coup of my favs...Whiskey Hangover and I Fu**ing Hate You!!! Yeah, that's the name of the song. 🔥🔥🔥

Without fail, I can put Godsmack on and be lifted out of any kind of emotional funk i may be feeling. These guys bring it hard and fast with such power. Even their ballads have their own "lift" for me from Sully's very unique vocal style. This band is one of my absolute GO-TO listens when i am ready to rock like crazy. You have to fet deeper in their catalog and listen to some of the really individual style they have. You will not be disappointed by Godsmack!! ❤

Love it when you give the camera 'that look' then we know you like it and repeat is coming.

Loving the Godsmack dive

Love your reactions brother. You gotta do the best band ever, Corrosion of Conformity....songs like Clean my wounds, or Albatross...all are wicked!!🤘🤘

They got that 'IT'! Straight 🔥

I get to see them live in October and I cannot wait, this is THE band that made me start listening to metal

godsmack has so many awesome songs. Seen them 3x live

My first concert was Godsmack with Adema opening. Sully did a drum solo upside down! It was epic. I’ll never forget it 😉 Whatever by Godsmack is a great song. ✌🏻💚🤘🏻 it’s the only way to fly!

Being an old time rocker, watching your reactions, watching you grow and evolve makes me realize what it's all about. Keep rocking young brother. For once it's touched your soul, it'll stick by your side and carry you through the best and worst of times.✌

Missed the live and have to miss the next, bummer. I'll catch up on the other two later. Great song, great band, love it. Thanx, Peace

Speaking of grunge, Godsmacks “love-hate-sex-pain” took almost direct inspiration from Alice in chain’s “love hate love”

American rock and roll at its finest

Got to see Godsmack and Five Finger Death Punch together live it was amazing!! 💜🦋🤘🏻🎶

They are great live! I have seen them twice. Hopefully again in October

the biggest thing about this album for me when it came out was the production/mastering/whatever you wanna call it. The entire album sounded fuckin amazing. Every track kicking ass helped but damn, it sounded so good in a car with a couple of fat subs.

I had the honor to be in attendance to their MTV basement tape filming. Amazing introduction of new music.

"Speak" is a fire Godsmack song and video too. It features a legendary badass on the drums from way back in the day--Shannon Larkin. Guy is an animal behind the kit.

Godsmack is an all time fave. Voodoo was the first song id heard of theirs and I was instantly in love 😍 still making great music too!

One of my favorite bands!! Please listen to Moon Baby if you want the guitars and drums!!

Godsmack “Whatever” will give you more chills.

i feel you would love shinedown, songs like, 45, sound of madness, adrenaline, bully, enemies, would absolutely be up your alley

They have a lot of bangers. No doubt about that. One of my favorites is unforgettable. They go to a highschool and do school of rock for real. It's awesome.

Love this band! Boston I think...😊 others will no more. People have suggested this. My favorite is I stand Alone.

Godsmack currently have the #1 song on billboard's mainstream rock songs charts

Voodoo, Serenity, and Unforgettable. A little old, a little new, all amazing.

Being from Massachusetts, i remember when then rose up. The record company that signed them wanted a radio friendly song. DJs at WAAF in Boston knew the band and started playing ""Whatever". The radio friendly song they recorded. That broke the band and they are now who they are. Serenity, Voodoo, and I Stand Alone are definite songs to check out but Whatever (as basic as it was) got them their deal RIP Rocko

one of the best bands to come out of Boston that’s for sure

Such a badass guitar drop!

More Godsmack!!! You absolutely gotta check out 1000hp!! More heavy riffs and the lyrics will give you some more insight on the band🤘🤙

"No rest for the wicked" by gobsmacked. You have to check that one out next brother.

I believe I have this album and while I seem to recall finding the album a bit weak as a whole, I think the album had several standout tracks and this was certainly a total banger.

I saw them live and Sully had a huge drum set, like 1/4 of the stage and he did a long drum solo, not a traditional a traditional drum set that you sit in the middle of, he was standing during the performance
