I respect this Ivan knows not to get into a fight on social media because it always ends badly for everyone. The dude has a good head on his shoulders.

Tommy just won his lawsuit against his label and former partners so he must have done something right.

I love how Ivan refuses to get into a Twitter feud or call out names online, like he said all it does is give the guy attention and it’s nothing but jibbering unless it’s in person

Vext has an amazing voice. I hope he lands somewhere that allows him to look back and laugh at those who tried standing in his way.

That’s the first rule of social niceties - never discuss religion or politics 💯

I'm just really glad to hear Ivan got sober addiction is hell

I love how everyone hears Ivan's words of "I don't talk shit on social media" But doesn't recognize that it's exactly what he's doing. He's taking the time to rag on Tommy, whether or not you agree Tommy deserves it. Not talking about it, would be actually NOT TALKING ABOUT IT. Just saying.

Moody, he's not stuck...He's getting a message out that needs to be heard. Without Tommy and our voices the freedom of you putting your music out there could be next to come to an end.

Not going to lie Tommy Vext has a good sound. Hoping everyone can get over their shit and get some good music out. We need it. Mad wack shit out there......

What's wrong with standing up for what you believe in and speaking your truth?! Yes Tommy has a temper but he is passionate.

Is it me or has Ivan gotten smarter ever since he stopped drinking.

Wait… he’s complaining about Vext on stage not playing a song when he was so drunk he collapsed and ruined an entire tour?

I wonder sometimes if it scared Ivan that Tommy sounded like him and almost took his place when he was out of control

People go to concerts for the band and the atmosphere, not politics. Ivan for the win.

I mean Tommy is just telling the truth. ✊🏾✊🏾

I'm definitely in Vext's corner on this. He just said they weren't friends anymore because of political disagreement. That is literally the problem with the world today. Even sadder he was probably told to say that by the people in charge of his career and he bowed to them. No respect for Ivan Moody anymore.

I like how he mentioned our old band, Motograter. 😂😂😂

The members of sad wolves did not write their new album it was all written entirely by Tommy vext.

How cool is it that fans can now directly ask questions to some of their favorite artists? 11 year old me would have lost my mind if I could have just seen James Hetfield speaking live directly to fans during the time when I would listen to Justice at least once a day all the way through.

I love how Ivan calls Tommy a “kid” even though he’s only 2 years younger than him.

I love both of them and I can see BOTH their points.

I understand Tommy's anger and why he's lashing out. I've been there. I understand why he's so vocal about his beliefs, too. The journey he is on I have also been on and am still on it in some ways. Give it some time. He'll come out of it much better than he was before. Maybe he and Ivan will be friends and do a collaboration.

Yea and Ivan has never gone on a rant on stage!

I actually like Tommy although don't always agree with him he speaks his mind and people hate that. I really like 5FDP too personally but for what its worth my friend who has opened up for them who i wont name for obvious reasons said that they were the furthest thing from humble, opposite of what the fans say. He used to be a huge 5FDP fan and now he hates them because of his interaction with them at the show. That being said i'm going to see them in September, i'm pumped!

I really enjoyed listening to Tommy vext. I want to see him come back to do whatever.

Tommy is a Conservative, and with today's social media and former God Forbid band mates. That's all you need to know. FFDP Ivan is a opportunist.

More people should be fearless and take a stand!!!

5FDP is my favorite band of this generation. I also like Tommy Vext and Badwolves. I’m so glad that Ivan got clean and sober, and he seems to have wised up a lot.

Ivan is a class fuckin act, there is a lot more people that should follow his example, go to their face and not online. That and so much more is why Ivan has my respect.

I agree with everything he said, even though I might not be the biggest fan of 5FDP.

I agree 100% with ivan I've met him and the guys in 5fdp very cool and kind dudes 😎

I respect Ivan and Tommy both so much so it's a huge disappointment that the relationship between them has become so bitter.

Not too much Into that band but I got respect for that guys point of view and logical attitude.

This is why I love Ivan!! People fall but the getting back up is the real! Now.. back to the music! 🎶

I love that this is real, fame, no fame. Keep it real an listen to the music. I love the music that gets us through rough times. Bad wolves an ffdp have both helped me.

Five finger death punch rocks love u all please don't stop make more music there lyrics hit my soul an my life issues an I respect they honor our military

Cover artist of Ivan Moody’s book had to have also done Nikki Sixx’s Heroin Diaries. The art style looks almost identical.

That's it. IVAN is just IVAN!! That's why I love him!

He doesn't blast his beefs, he'd address such matters in person? Well said, well handled, by a well respected member of our community 🤘💜💯

It’s a life goal of mine to meet Ivan Moody!

Love the krusty o's box and full scale gremlin in the background. where did yall find the gremlin?

D.L. is the former guitar player from The Acacia Strain. He did The hills have eyes and all those older jams. Good to see him still around :)

TOMMY VEXT IS SO SO GOOD!!!

Wow he answered my question and now it’s on rock feed

Thanks for helping me remember the name of Devil Driver!!!!! I've been trying to remember the name of that awesome band!!!!!!!! Hell's yeah!!!!!! God bless you all today Shalom 🙏

What’s the song in the background?

Just because he’s conservative? He’s right btw

Living the dream video was very political a lot of patriotic symbolism in 5FDP music and videos. Pro military pro police those are very political things especially now. So really not sure where he has a problem with Vext. Is it because Vext took it a step further, and was basically like fuck it this is who I am, this is what I see, and I'm calling it out? People say don't discuss religion or politics but those are 2 things that really make a person who they are, and musicians show it all the time just maybe not as blatantly.

I agree with part of what Ivan is doing and part of what Tommy is doing. Tommy can do what he believes in....but absolutely!! Write a song about it!

“DL” as in the original TAS Guitarist? That’s sweet the reason I got into 7 and 8 string.

I love Tommy Vext!

What is the background song in this video?

Ivan is a legend & a top guy they way he personally interacts with his fans is awesome 🤘🏼

Both artists are immensely talented and very passionate about how they feel. It's not my place to judge or side. I mean ..why side? Ivan is talented.. outspoken and passionate. Tommy has undeniable talent and the most powerful vocals I've ever heard..and he is also talented and outspoken. What happened with BadWolves is ones word against the others. Only they know the truth but I have mad respect for Tommy for his follow thru with his label. In the end we still have two amazing artists who say what's on their mind. Tommy is too talented to not have a very successful career. I think it will take a little time but it's going to happen. 🤘

This is why I have such deep respect and reverence for Ivan. The dude keeps it real. Tommy took one too many sips of the proverbial kool aid and now he doesn’t know which way is what direction and Ivan knows it, but doesn’t have much of a need to say it. We should take Ivan’s lead and just leave it the fxck alone.

Good to know who is going to be there as lead singer

Glad Tommy knows what's going on and contributes to the affairs around him unlike most people that live life oblivious and ignorant, not caring about a thing until it ruins their lives

How is Vince doing? I hope he gets better for the stadium tour

Keep making those monsters Ivan, your killing it

Team Vext 100%

I like a person that stays away from trash talking on social media and if there's an issue go talk it out. There's so many people washing their dirty laundry in public on fuckin Facebook (piece of snit that is) and forcing their political or religious beliefs on others and hate anyone who disagrees with them. Gone are the days we're you TALK to people, having meaningful conversations and building real relationships and that's truly sad. I worked in a nursing home for years and I gotta say I loved it, I built friendships there and spent hours talking with them. The best conversation I had was with an 87 year old dock worker ,he had such a rad life and I miss the guy but I never had a conversation as meaningful as that since. I tried Facebook when it first launched, deleted it 2 years later as I found that platform so toxic, it just kills me that children are using it. Sorry everyone went off on a tangent there but I stand by the spirit of my words.

You can never take that Rocky Mountain attitude away from people who were born in the Rockies 🤘 Love you Ivan

Bad Wolves will never be the same. Don't like the new guys voice and the direction of the new album doesn't sound good.

idk the whole story, some people can get sucked into politics if passionate enough, i love the music ivan and tommy produce... nuff said!!

I looooove me some Ivan…🖤❤️🤘🏻

Rock on Ivan! Rock on!

Just proves a point many have said:"social media has and is destroying the minds of people. People are so wrapped up in stuff that has nothing to do with them, they are losing perspective on what is truly important in life ".

Well at least he speaks the truth and isn’t afraid too! 💯👏🏻🙌🏻

Tommy can say what he wants just like everyone else. Don't like it? Don't listen. Simple.

I Totally FING AGREE To IVY MOODY 100.000% IVY KEEP RULEING AND ROCKIN' ON, And Always Be Yourself No MATTER WHAT, I Have Done This As Well Since Day One, And It Works For Me Too. TY For Everything And More You Have Done, In Your Songs, And Fans, I Am A Hard Core FAN OF FFDP, And Have Been Since I Was, 13 and Now I Am 26 And Still, ROCKIN' IT OUT, Dont Stop Being You And Always ROCK And RULE ON 😎🤘😈👑👻☠🌏❤💙

Ivan , stay as you are, stay strong and keep going. If only more people out there were like you… honest, humble, with beautiful big hearts Much respect and all the best to you and family

What Ivan is talking about is something that I think unfortunately has been happening to far too many people in this country. They start to get into politics more than they probably ever have and then they allow those politics, and the people they're listening to about it, warp and twist their mindsets into making everything about the political beliefs they either had but never openly expressed, or never had before into their personal identity and then they lash out at anyone who for even a split second disputes, critiques or disagrees with what that person has become. You're fine to have political beliefs and other things associated with that, but you can't let it become who you are as a person. Unfortunately it seems like Tommy has allowed his political beliefs to become just that and part of that is what has led to the events we've witnessed over the past year or two between Tommy, Bad Wolves and BNM.

And Tommy was right. So glad that lawsuit is over

Gotta say, as a young guy that loves ffdp, Tommys bad wolves is the first time i bought cds, albums, etc, I support both artist, i understand where Ivan is coming from nd i respect, but im was and can still be a young hot headed guy that will take a mfs head off for disrespecting what i believe in, idk Tommy or ivan personally, but for me who does stand more on Tommy side, its not about the politics, the politics are the thing destroying the culture and traditions we believe in, so that is where our anger nd frustration tend to be aimed, then the hothead comes in when a confrontation arises. It passion, just not weilded properly, and i can apologize for myself in that.

Respect

Music should need be this way, with producers ect being able to censor and hold back whatever the artist wants to put out..

Gotta love Ivan 💘

I'm 100% with Tommy.

Not really a fan but dang, Respect to mr. moody

Tommy V is awesome can't wait for him to get back on stage.

Tommy Vext is a beast. Fuck bad wolves

Wishing Ivan all the best!! Keep rockin dude 🖤🤟

Maybe Ivan needs to Start singing songs about how he bent over for the government and takes it dry! Sad that I was in love with this fool for the past Fuckin 15 years and this was all it took to show me what kind of man he really is! I guess his song living the dream was really just dream! No way would he have the balls to stand up for what’s actually right

Ivan is the man, love his voice and love him , he is so real and just puts it out there and says what he thinks and there's nothing fake about him, he's the real deal !

Just type ivan Moody rant mother" hahahaha at least Tommy was TALKING ABOUT REALITY!! LOL

I absolutely agree with everything Ivan said. I didn't know about Tommy Vex going off on stage. That kind of attitude will destroy his career. And I've always liked Bad Wolves.

No one's ever first

I love ivan

What's funny about Ivan is he says if he has a problem with someone he'll go straight to them and not go off on social media and yet he's doing the exact opposite of that.

Wasn't the "living the dream" video political?

Tommy recorded lifeline long before the band did it with the new singer.

Ivan Is A Gosh Darn Ledgend.

Vext has talent so make your own music instead of limiting yourself to cover artist category

This is why we love him lol in the same, I'm very bold and will say it to you and your face.

I’m conservative and I’m all for him speaking his mind, but he had a good thing going I wouldn’t have personally let politics get in the way of that. Politics is for personal life not work. Also Ivan is right, if he has something to say, make it into a song that way people have to listen to it if they like it the way it sounds they don’t have to agree with it 😂.

RESPECT!

Politics got massively involved because he sees what's going on. I get it, we should just live, but still. We've "lived" under this idea of security when we're getting screwed underneath our noses. And most people dont realize it. I respect Tommy for expressing it.

My favorite front man in history

Seen so many bands speak out about their views on stage and off of it. They have a right to do that just as much as Tommy Vext. It's a free country

I’m with Vext on this one
