Sebastian's voice is amazing and one of my favorite singers ever.

That album has two other incredible power ballads, 'In A Darkened Room' and 'Wasted Time'. 'Slave To The Grind' is legitimately one of the greatest hard rock/metal albums of all time. Sebastian's voice is almost supernatural.

@Ghost I remember not liking 'Subhuman Race' when it came out because I wanted 'SLAVE... Pt.2' But listening to it years later I think it's a really strong album, despite it sounding a bit too 'grunge'.

The outro to Wasted Time is probably the best part of the whole album. It’s such a good record.

The album Slave to the grind is a masterpiece and almost never talked about. Sebastian Bach is one of the best singers in rock history.Another singer that is totally set aside is Jeff Scott Soto from the band Talisman. Great reaction 👍👍👍

Absolutely agree that Slave is a masterpiece. I personally felt they just kept getting better the more the original lineup played together. To me it was like the 1st album was more about getting their "pop-ier" material out of the way early on. Even tho its definitely good, its not a fully true representation of them. Then with Slave it was all about "ok, now this is what Skid Row can really do". And Subhuman Race just continued that process to me.

#PainOnTheSack 18 and Life - Skidrow Youth Gone Wild - Skidrow Thank you so much for bringing us Skidrow. Love you guys

A few month ago i went to see sebastian bach in a small concert in Chile and he's still got it. Great reaction guys

That mans voice gives me goose bumps. Bach has one of the GREATEST voices ever!

Even though Skid Row came out in the late 80’s they stood out from all the other bands. With their second album they REALLY stood apart from everything else out there by combining more heavy guitar riffs to the melodic song structures with their unique aggressive approach. If Grunge didn’t take over bands like Skid Row would have dominated along with the more trashy street ready rock like G n’R.

I know you say you aren't about analyzing the lyrics but for me the lyrics are what makes this song. Sebastian's voice is just icing on the cake for this one. Just the same, thank you for reacting to it. I wish more people knew about this song and that album in general.

Skid Row is one of my favorite bands and especially with Sebastian Bach as their singer. This is one of my favorite songs by them, and there are a lot other great ones like Wasted Time, Youth Gone Wild, In A Darkened Room, 18 and Life, I Remember You, Into Another and many, many more. By the way, I'm piscis too! I'm glad you guys did this song as your first.

Some of the best vocals !!🤘🤘 thanks guys

Finally, someone finally did this song!!!!

Great reaction/ reviews guys, this was one of the best performances by Sebastian Bach and for sure the best Skid Row record. Sebastian had one of the best voices in music back in the day #painintheask Piper Never Dies by Edguy

Great song. This whole album is really good.

Sebastián Bach Always love his vocals. This song its one of my favorites.. The way His screams...

Oh Yeah! Classic ❤🤘

Hope you two are well during the shutdown. I didn't get the alert you were doing this. One if my favorite songs. Wow, this whole album is killer. Everything they did was killer. You two are jewels.. I'm shocked Rich hadn't heard this. Thanks for sharing and being such nice folks. You guys rock..

Thank you for the trip down memory lane. I still feel 18! Still rockin' this in 2020

#PainInTheMemories I took a friend to his first concert back in '88. Drove from Portland up to the Tacoma Dome. Skid Row was supporting this album, opening for the Guns and Roses, Use Your Illusion Tour. The Skids blew G-n-R away!!!

I had forgotten how great skid row was. Thank you for this

My favorite song by Skid Row!👍✌💕

Skid Row - Slave to the Grind Tesla - Great Radio Controversy Two amazing albums lost in the grunge avalanche that still hold up today as some of the greatest rock records ever

Nice mention of Tesla. The Way it is, off of The Great Radio Controversy is one of their most underrated songs. I also loved Hang Tough. I didn’t mention Love Song, since everyone knows that one, but one thing I can say about the version on that cd is that the acoustic intro isn’t cut out like in the radio edit everyone heard, and that really makes the song. I hate any version of that song without it.

This is their 2nd album, that came out in 91, but was still powerful even as the anti-80s movement in the 90s started happening.

Mud kicker is a great track also by SkidRow from Slave to the grind album (their best imo)

A solid fuckin album Love this heavy metal band Great SONG. Good guitar work 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘

Slave to the grind is a great skid row song and the amazing part is if you play it at .75 speed it sounds like grunge and if you play it at 1.25 speed it sounds like death metal

Sebastian o melhor vocal 🇧🇷 💗

Oh my god this takes me back. I havent heard this song in years. I forgot how Sebastion Bachs voice is. Brilliant Reaction as always 🤘🤘

My favorite Skid Row song, thank you!

#MetalChicPick . just came across your channel a few days ago. love you two so much ! i was one of those girls that you mentioned in this video kel , except i didnt stay out all night . my mother would have killed me ! i did get lost in the music though :) i would love for you guys to check out steelhearts song , Mama Don't You Cry . i lost my mother to breast cancer when i was 17 , first heard this song two yrs after she passed and it left me speachless and tore my heart apart . really beautifull song and mike matijevic wrote it for his mother as well ,who passed away . i think you guys are doing a fantastic job ! keep the music alive . take care.

I was in seventh grade in 87 and was obsessed with hair bands. This music was the best!

Cool fact: Sebastian Bach was a singer in a band called Sebastian, where he sang some demos, one of which was a song called Saved By Love, audition with this song made him later accepted to a Skid Row, and Kevin (James) LaBrie took his place in a Sebastian band, name of which was later changed to Winter Rose. They did a freaking awesome album called Winter Rose with LaBrie on vocals, you must check it out! Peace :)

I love you guys. You're most adorable couple. Keep up the good work.

Wow. You guys hit all of these incredible bands. I can jam slave to the grind all day long.

Young Sebastian had a very, very special voice!

I had the first two records in my youth. I liked it. They were great.

Hi from oz. I loved this song when i was at high school in the 90's with my mates, we used to play it all the time.

Skid Row - I Remember You and 18 and Life, vocals will blow you away.

This is a good one...Skid Row is one of the Hair Bands that I have always liked and followed.

Your faces said it all, while listening. His voice was simply unmatched back then. Try Wasted Time if you haven't yet. That track and QJ were my two favorites from Slave to the Grind.

I love Skid Row

Because it is AMAZING MUSIC. Bas has a great voice and the songwriting and melodies are beautiful.

Another awesome reaction from Kel & RIch. Why has NO ONE ever reacted to this song before this?? For me, it's one of their swansongs. Rachel's lyrics alone are poetically perfect. Sadly, all I've personally ever seen are 'I Remember You', '18 & Life', 'Youth Gone Wild' & a couple 'Wasted Time' reactions. BTW...that song is amazing as well. But what about all the other great songs off the first 3 albums with Sebastian?? It's truly sad to recognize that in all probability we're never going to have anything like this again in the rock & metal genres. Bands like Skid Row, Queensryche, Maiden, Priest, Dio, & even into the 90's with Soundgarden, Alice in Chains, Dream Theater, etc with ridiculously great vocalists. Even Stryper, whether u like their Christian mssg or not, they crush live. Don't get me wrong...every generation has great artists no doubt. I absolutely love Alter Bridge, Sevendust, Korn, Avenged Sevenfold, B4MV & Disturbed as well but there's still something from that earlier time that's been lost & now gone. Myles Kennedy IMO is one of the only stand out vocalists today that has any real semblance of that time-period. To the younger generations...I truly feel bad for you because you honestly have ZERO idea of what you missed out on...

I now respect and appreciate much of what I disregarded then simply because, well cuz that's what age and (hopefully) wisdom can bring. I fear today's youth will have little or nothing to fondly recall when they reach our years. Like a restaurant menu with no actual food in it, an SNL broadcast that's not particularly funny or a football game with a 3-0 final score...what will they consider nostalgic? What will they feel grateful for having experienced?? Fortnite? Kardashians? Thank u both...😎✌💖

nice to see a real and honest reaction , instead of playacting for clicks. skid row are and always will be one of the best metal bands ( with seb) and this album is up there with the best....thanks guys keep it real always

thanks

This was their best album imo.

I love this song, so powerful. Skid Row's best song IMHO. Time for these two to listen to some RATT!! Lots of guitar and plenty of attitude, RATT will fit in quite nicely in their "metal" journey. Back For More is a great song to get started on.

#skidrow I Remember You Kel will love it.

one of the best Skid row songs

Lyrics are AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Love you guys and your reactions. I have a suggestion, 'Nymphetamine' by Cradle of Filth. I'm not a huge black metal fan, but this song that just hits me in the heart. It's a darker song that is intertwined with a elegant beauty. God bless you both.

I left school in 1990 and this album came out around that time, maybe a year either side, but is still awesome. Not one bad song all the way through.

I first heard this song in 1977 when i was time travelling on L.S.D.

#PAININTHEASK W.A.S.P. - L.O.V.E. Machine

The Slave to the Grind record is a substantial record. It is actually a lot better than the debut (and i loved the debut). This record came out as the wind was coming out of the balloon for this sound. I actually rather blame the never ending singles that came out from the Illusion records for exhausting the palette for this style of rock. I loved GnR too but they just kept coming on and on and I think people got to the point they wanted something else. Also, this song is the big ballad and excellent but it isn't representative of the Slave to the Grind record. That record is much heavier bordering on thrash vs the first record and lent itself to the direction the band would go after grunge captured the interest of the people. Loved your reaction and that Rich dug it, too.

This is from slave to the grind. I've loved that album for decades now. original had get the f??k out for track number 6 but got swapped. I still listen to this song and many more from that album frequently

Love it.if you guys like this check out still loving you by the scorpions.another great rock ballad

Skid Rows debut album self titled came out in 1989

We still wear those jackets....mine an all Stryper and another all KISS. I just made 2 more vests....Morbid Angel, Venom, old Slayer and another all Watain. Watain are like motorcycle club vests. My Stryper was just signed by them .
