I did a course with Will Ramos and Chris Liepe where you can learn how to create harsh vocal sounds yourself! Check it here: www.mymusicalvoice.com/p/ultimate-extreme-will-ramos
Please tell me that you'll make a song together with Will and the rest of Lorna Shore some time in the future. The contrast between Will's inhuman vocals and your amazing opera voice would be absolutely unique
i'm in the classical department and i'm absolutely fascinated from this piece, and not only this...i think metal and classic have many things in common....
@Apokalypsis Composer What happened to your Twitch account? I went to www.twitch.tv/epikuscomposer and I guess it no longer exists? Found it initially through a google search.
You heard a song. Made a video. Had tea with the singer. Helped stick a camera down his throat to fin an odd ability he has. And now you, an opera singer, are analyzing a death metal songs vocals, while being able to say "that's my friend" Kick ass!
Seeing Elizabeth get excited about deathcore is literal music to my ears. No band has made me feel the feelings I do when I listen to Lorna Shore. Such an emotional roller coaster. Their newest song cursed to die got me feeling some sort of way I’ve never felt before.
Yeah it's amazing the journey he takes you on love the muddy and the cleaner easy to understand lines makes it great with lyrics and still awesome without I have memorized most of it and practiced it not in full belt yet like he does training for that. But he is so good for such a young age as well like really good like it seems like he has been doing this for decades but no he is so versatile.
Lorna is definitely my new favorite band since Will joined, and I had no idea the released another song until I read your comment. Will and the band have been absolutely killing it.
Austin Archey (the drummer) is absolutely incredible. He's an incredible musician but is also so dedicated to the craft. Will is a incredible vocalist, but the other members are just as good individually, and when you combine them together it's just something utterly impressive and fun to listen to
Austin is an absolutely incredible drummer, and he's doing this every night/other night on tour all while having a messed up back. What an absolute beast. Back pain ain't no fun, that's for sure and playing drums for almost an hour(maybe even more) every stop on a tour has to be hell.
There’s a few other bands I feel this way about. Most notably would be August Burns Red. All of the guys are masters of their craft, hell Dustin can write music for every instrument on the stage. Lorna shore especially since this surge they’ve had with Will is insanely impressive
@@dunkcity2116 I've played drums for about 20 years now, and this dude is seriously good. Almost to a point you can't train, just genetics or something, his pedal speed is inhuman
Heard it at 6:30 this morning for the first time watching tank the tech. That final breakdown had no busy being that filthy that early in the morning lmao
Love his vocal capabilities. Btw also check his cover of the band , Sleep Token, he covers their tune “ Hypnosis”. In this song Will Ramos using his “ Clean Vocals “ until the last few bars of the song before he cranks it up a notch at the end of it . The dude also can sing very melodic too , very good as well as his awesome voice that we all are used to . Dudes got some real talent .😎
I love your transition from being like a scared wounded gazelle when listening to this stuff and wondering what was going on to being one of the most authorized voices out there to speak on the subject. Hope you and Will have stayed friends, beautiful souls both of you. Edit: also congratulations!!!
So when are you and Will going to collaborate? I could see some nice opera vocals in a Lorna Shore Breakdown working out over Will’s lows. Make it happen, make us happy :)
This was a great reaction!:) Could you guys imagine a couple of years ago this sweet and innocent operagirl would sit here giggling enthusiasticly and deep analyzing the most harsh and deep guttural voices in metal. I love this progression:) Great stuff Elisabeth:)
@@LAZER1986 Let's not forget Amon Amarth - Johan Hegg has been at it for about 20 years and manages to keep a remarkably clean enunciation through quite heavy (false chord) distortion. That being said, I find Will fairly understandable most of the time.
I must've understood at least six words, which is pretty good. But Lorna Shore communicates directly to my reptile brain, I can feeeel the song, so words are secondary
Well, I'm going to say this here and now. This is the best reaction channel in the world, period! Elizabeth, thank you again for your contribution to the metal world, breaking prejudices and stereotypes, in a totally loving and educational way. Thank you! You're right, seeing this reaction, after seeing the inside of Will's throat is something else hahahaha you can focus more on the artistic part perhaps. Love to you, the baby and Kirk.
I was thinking the same thing the other day. The reason for that is because these are not "reaction" videos. She is actually analysing and breaking down the songs. And not just yelling "WWHHHHOOOOAAAA" or "OOOOMMMMMMGGGGG"
I totally agree with you. Most reaction channels are garbage where they just listen to a song, nod along with the song, tell their viewers how much they loved it(even when they clearly don't) and then they move on to the next song. Those channels are going to fail in the long run.
The opening called "The Rumbling" from Attack on Titan has some screaming in it. Not to Lorna Shore's level but it was definitely a pleasant surprise to hear harsh vocals in an anime theme.
@@lBadSport Oh I know. Stein's Gate I believe (Come to think of it I might be thinking of Re: Zero) also had some harsh vocals in it. The Rumbling was just the first one that came to mind because it was so recent. Lol
I found you because of Lorna Shore and I adore you! As a Mama of 3 congratulations!!! Also your postpartum hair is beautiful 😍 I love how you break down wills voice so everyone can appreciate their art I can’t wait to show my 8 year old tour reaction to these because he loved your throat scope video. Please keep it up and keep kicking ass Mama!🤘🏻
As both a classically trained musician and a metal fan, I always look forward to your content like this! You're so non-judgemental and I can always feel your respect for other musicians even if it's not your own personal taste. Seeing your Lorna Shore/Will Ramos content is always such a treat!! You both are such gems 🖤
This is the exact reason why I love watching her videos! I'm full blown metal head but my mom is a classic singer and after listening her sing for 20 plus years I gained so much interest and knowledge of how human sound works. Or at least that was what I thought... I've learned so many more things about extreme vocals and vocals in general watching her videos.
Absolutely! I'm a classical musician/singer and (as of recently) a composer, and Im a huge metal fan. There are so many similarities - virtuosic instrumentalists, vocalists pushing the limits of the human voice, grand theatre, and epic story-telling. Elizabeth genuinely appreciates good music, and her sense of wonder and unbridled GLEE are so infectious.
The amazing part is, if you watch her first reactions it was scared but curious and over time she has truly come to love it. Open mindedness can bring the world together.
I love how you are happy like a child when you're listening to epic music. You don't just listen. You feel it to the core. As everyone should. You're literally the happiest person ever. And that's infectious. Keep drawing smiles on our faces! 🖤
Would love to see your opinions on his covers of Sleep token's- Hypnosis and Chelsea grin's- Recreant. This dude is amazingly talented and we should protect him at all costs.
I will never be able to stress enough how talented Austin archey really is. Playing drums fast is cool, playing them fast and well is cooler, but what he does, both fast and slow, is otherworldly cool. Watch his drum playthroughs, he looks so casual doing everything he does.
That whole band is crazy with their talents. And I love how Elizabeth gets so nerdy over it where most people would just call it screamo noise and dismiss it as music. Congratulations Elizabeth! 👶
By far most music in that general genre that I have heard, just sounds like boring, fatiguing, "screamo noise"... but this song sure as hell ain't that. This song is really tastefully done with so many elements to appreciate.
@@jasonjuneau2948 - He does some pig squeelin' and goblin noises for sure... among a load of other sounds, always keeping it interesting, and the band knows how to accentuate the vocals to make them even better. My least favourite sound is high pitched screeching, but they do it in a tasteful manner where it's slightly dropped into the background, which makes it sound really nice, surprisingly. Some parts are just beautiful. Never heard death core like how this band does it. People who don't like this general genre of music, are able to instantly just appreciate and enjoy this song for instance. Pretty wild (without it being heavily pop-inspired or such things). Okay wait you're just taking issue with the term, I didn't fully realise that lol. I'll use whatever term you want to use. I put it in quotes just to use your terminology in the OP. Like a very lax catch-all term for this very general overarching umbrella-category of music.
Your reaction is what I look for from you: delighted nerdery, scholarly information, and honest emotional response. You always bring a smile. As to Lorna Shore and Will, I usually don't like deathcore, but they have just the right sound for me to enjoy it immensely. While being brutal, the chorus here is glorious in it's triumphant hubris. The latest single, "Cursed to Die", has some moments I find just plain beautiful.
Well, the combo Lorna Shore/Elizabeth certainely never disappoints, great video! Now I am waiting for anything from Shadow of Intent and my life is complete :p
Wow Elizabeth! You've really built up your knowledge on how this kind of vocalization works. This is true analysis and it's great. Thank you. Nobody but you is doing this. Good on you for getting it out there. When are you going to do a song with Lorna Shore already?
Elizabeth is so used to this sound already, that she wants to repeat the whole song again and again. I like to see the improvement in you and your channel as well.
Will has taken Lorna Shore in such a magical direction. The lyrics are very choral, almost angelic? Also have to admire the respect you have for harsh vocals. I do not know about many clean singers who can look at harsh vocals and go "wow, that's really cool"
It is absolute musical genius because him referencing Icarus is actually in foreshadowing. The person who believes that they’re on the vent and they’re lucid, dreaming to none other than fail, and later songs throughout the album the writing for this album was absolutely astonishing.
I think you’d really enjoy Shadow of Intent if you like this song. Specifically The Heretic Prevails. Genuinely mind blowing song vocally and the instrumentals are sick too!
I LOVE how you've gone from jumping at every blast of drums and astonishment at the grueling low vocals like in Slaugter reaction, to absolutely loving death metal!!
On the combination of anime and death core, I have to mention Brand Of Sacrifice. The band itself and all their songs are fully based on Berserk. Great singer as well! And he has done a cover of The Rumbling (saw it mentioned in the comments) together with Nik Nocturnal of you're interested in that
I've been a Celtic/Gaelic vocalist my whole life/career (and also a lifelong lover of metal and heavy music!) and the intro of this song immediately reminded me of Enya's 'Athair Ar Neamh' - it's a bit different in the complete intro, but has a very similar couple intro notes and that mystical, ethereal vibe!! Love the similarity 🥰
This band really do exceed expectations every time, I have very very high hopes for the future! They really make people feel some kind of emotional feelings they never knew they had, honestly an unbelievably great band
Metal is such an incredibly powerful and diverse genre of music. I think I've been so taken with it just because of the raw, insane amounts of talent involved. Even the members of a generic metal band stomp most other musicians by a long shot. So many raw human emotions can be portrayed, and create something beautiful even when it's so hellish and hectic.
As another commenter said, a collab between you and Lorna shore for a song would be amazing! I absolutely love when bands use typically non-metal instruments like saxophone, violin, or orchestral pieces in their music. Operatic singing would certainly be something special.
Ok so I won't lie have been a silent fan for quite some time. And your knowledge and scientific breakdowns of vocal knowledge have actually helped myself a great deal. And I truly love the relationship you and Will have formed. Tbh he's reached legend status before even being 30 yo, he is one of my biggest idols as a metal vocalist (next to Alex Terrible) but I would absolutely LOVE to see you react and disect the vocals of Dan (Danny) Tucker of Crown magnetar, he is an absolute MONSTER on the mic. Songs like Black Lotus, Full spectrum Hatred, or God is my enemy would be great for your talent of vocal knowledge, his range, transitions, and all around delivery are delightfully brutal and I think you would enjoy giving them a listen, lemme know what you think?
@@JB-mh5xy I agree with you. 100%. A lot of metal is incredibly deep. So many emotions, and honestly one of the best outlets for said emotions. Metalheads are some of the kindest, most down-to-earth, appreciative people on the planet. I know metal isn't evil. However, Will's vocals only sound that way. Not even the message in the lyrics, only the sound and tonality of his voice. Will is a massive talent, from extre harsh vocals to melodic clean tones like in his one take of Sleep Token's "Hypnotize" Sorry for the confusion
@@nathanmellott2262 Will's Sleep Token cover made me fall in love with him! Like the lil Teen Girls loving Beiber & Harry Styles & whoever else like Pop stuff, Will is my guy I fan girl over. & I'm a middle aged woman. Insane vocals from A to Z & hes a super rad fun guy & OH SO "DREAMY".
As for deathcore being merged with anime or paired for sound or premise, I would suggest you listen to the band brand of sacrifice. Most of their songs are actually based on the anime known as berserk
I watched your channel already before you started big into metal and I could never ever have imagined, how much joy you could pull out of this music. I love it ❤️
This was so fun! Your cute reactions, you are no more afraid of his voice 🤭❤ It's cool to be spoiled by metal👌🤣💀this is my favourite song of all time, it's so unique, beautiful and epic! This is my ringtone too 🤭 wanna see more Lorna watching videos of you! And go listen to Will's cover "Hypnosis", it will be surprising!!! And we wanna see your reaction to it!!!
I've loved both classical and metal for a very long time. I can not tell you how refreshing and heartwarming it is to see an artist cross over and appreciate metal without dismissing it as "noise." Thank you.
The ill touch the sun at 26:23 of yoir video gives me chills every time. My favorite song by them. Unreal. Love your videos btw. I can watch them all day!
Also, you should definitely check out Brand of Sacrifice. Kyle Andersons vocals are phenomenal and the whole group are just the sweetest dudes. and everything about them from song lyrics, names, and even band name is all based off of the Manga/Anime Beserk. one of the most brutal pieces of art out there. highly recommend.
Demon King..... or Lifeblood ft. Will Ramos?? lmao Shit, forgot to add the cover Kyle did with Nik Nocturnal of SiM's "The Rumbling" from Attack on Titan
First off congratulations to you both on the brand new baby boy. So glad to see you checking out more Lorna Shore, I highly recommend you checking more of the new singles. Most of all though, please do check out Wills cover of Hypnosis by Sleep Token. Trust me, you will be blown away.
That contortion in his false cords was absolutely amazing. That video was just so EFFING COOL I loved seeing it! Totally gets me to appreciate his music so much more! \ , , /, Also: I adore just how giggly and excited you get when talking about music in general. It's just so much fun and I have such a fun time laughing along with you! Whenever I watch you singing I just giggle and think to myself "And she likes metal and D&D and anime!" It's just so cool! Congrats on the baby, by the way! So happy for you!
I would really love to see you check out Tom Barber specifically his band Darko US. I think he has a very unique sound which really shows in Darko, but he’s also a great vocalist in chelsea grin and back when he was still part of Lorna shore.
I think one of my favorite details about the way the lyrics in this song are performed is how early on his higher vocals are used with the "I'll touch the sun" line, and as the song goes on his deeper vocals are used for "I'll eat the sun", and there's even that section towards the end where it goes from one of those high and low back-and-forths to the other one after the other. Love the song, love your reactions, I definitely support the idea of a collab!
“So many shivers!” Haha love it. You should check out Of Mice and Men particularly when Austin Carlile was their vocalist, I think you’d enjoy his style. It’s another one that’s sooooo different
I absolutely love this. I found your channel because of Will Ramos. I like how open minded and positive you are about my favorite music genre. It has been hard to find people who like the same bands as me. Thank you for doing this.
If you haven't already, I think you'd really enjoy fleshgod apocalypse. They even have an opera singer in many songs. Cold as perfection is a very good example!
Great seeing you have so much fun! Will is such a beast. Lorna Shore and Shadow of Intent truly bring the deathcore genre to a new level. In a sea of boring, lifeless slams/breakdowns, when Lorna do a breakdown, it's an epic one. Although, that To The Hellfire one is a once in a career kind of deal. That breakdown probably changed deathcore forever.
I honestly love your reactions to metal vocalist! I love that it shows someone branching out beyond their particular tastes and finding and appreciating the art for what it is. That being said I’m really surprised that you haven’t done an analysis of Periphery yet! You really really need to do one for their song Reptile! Yes it’s a long song but I promise you will not be disappointed. If Reptile is too long, Stranger Things is a great alternative to start with! That band is absolutely incredible and your analysis and reaction would be amazing!!
You might be interested to know very select dark series, a notable well known anime being death note do have some harsher openings, not like THIS but check out maximum hormone if you are interested in this type of thing as an "anime opening". Maximum hormones song what's up people is the opening to death note
I just wonder when she reacts to the music: - Mais Que Um Mero Poema (Incidental Velhos Outonos | from the band: Rosa de Saron she sure will be dumbfounded with Guilherme de Sá's voice.
The whole of Sun Eater is just an amazing experience and the melodies that Lorna Shore can make easily bring a tear to my eye. And also since my mum died from a heart attack boxing day 2021 LS's music has really helped me cope and for that I'll be forever grateful to the band 🤘🏴
I don’t know if I can say a lot of “deathcore” makes it into anime, at least not the ones I’ve seen, but I do know that a lot of Japanese Metalcore makes it in for openings and endings and stuff
2 года назад+1
It's always funny watching you smilingly react to such extreme music :D Cheers and congrats on becoming a mother, I whish you all the best!
Oh my! Thank you, again, Elizabeth, for what might be your best reaction yet! This was so much fun! Mad, mad, mad respect for the whole band here. Their coordination is so incredibly tight, especially in the transitions between the (very, very) fast sections and the much slower drops. They're just fantastic. I'm glad you mentioned how much hard work Austin puts in on the drums. I have it on good authority (from Tank the Tech) that Austin is a real human being and not some kind of robot in disguise. But if ever there were a prime candidate for being a metal drumming god, it's Austin. With this song, of course, I have to re-evaluate the sub-genre in which Lorna Shore fits. When I first encountered them, I heard their style called blackened deathcore. Having listened to their "And I Return to Nothingness" EP, I realised they were better described as blackened, symphonic melodeathcore. I now realise, however, that they're actually progressive, blackened, symphonic melodeathcore . . . 😉
Gotdamn. He is in-cred-ible. And your reaction knowing your expertise and visualizations of what he is doing in his throat (the amazing twisted vocal coordination) and your glee to this is beyond amazing.
do you think we'll ever hear you do doing backing vocals on a Lorna shore song one day? Like the kind of thing they have in their songs already but more dynamic, as you an Will Ramos are friends I guess
WOW! WHAT A VOICE! That man has a vocal range, that's just insane!! 😲🔥 And I also really enjoyed the song as rock/metal head myself! Great reaction too! I need to check out more Lorna Shore
You look so proud. I hope you and Will stayed in touch! You two have such great chemistry as friends and Im waiting for the next episode of my favorite cooking show!!
Just wanna say the singing at the start is in Greek not Latin, the words are Kyrie Eleison It's an old Greek prayer song that means "God, Please save us" or "God have mercy" depending on how it's said
I did a course with Will Ramos and Chris Liepe where you can learn how to create harsh vocal sounds yourself! Check it here: www.mymusicalvoice.com/p/ultimate-extreme-will-ramos
Gonna start the courses as soon as I have free cash!!!! 😁 The fact the classes you own for life sold this redhead! 😎
When is your collaboration Elizabeth with lorna Shore ? I need a date to look forward too
Please tell me that you'll make a song together with Will and the rest of Lorna Shore some time in the future. The contrast between Will's inhuman vocals and your amazing opera voice would be absolutely unique
That would be amazing!!
yes yes yes
That would be fuckin awesome!
that would be so sick
yessss
feels like i'm watching will's sister being proud of him for half an hour
Thats a good way of putting it 👌
The giggle she lets out when Will comes on screen, made me smile. Your analogy seems spot on haha.
Couldn't agree more! It's been such a joy to catch up on all these videos after seeing Lorna Shore live in Baltimore, MD this summer. Fan for life!
Seeing an opera singer evolve into a metalhead truely warms me to the core. 😂
*to the deathcore 😎😎

I feel the same. Literally had tears in my eyes. Lol
Need to find me a woman that gets like that about me cuz it's adorable as fuck. lol
I feel that way about Cradle of Filth, old and new. Its wonderful when you find that band that just speaks to your soul.
Yeah it's amazing the journey he takes you on love the muddy and the cleaner easy to understand lines makes it great with lyrics and still awesome without I have memorized most of it and practiced it not in full belt yet like he does training for that.

Austin's face palm in the beginning like he's already tired just thinking about all the work he's about to do.

Would be fun to hear her analyze Sleep Token too.
This cover is insanely good
Hadn't heard the cover, Will Ramos must be protected. Good lord.
I really want to see her reaction to this!
He also uploaded a cover of their song "The Love You Want" thats entirely clean on his patreon

Yes I love this definitely she is the master of harsh vocals at this point to a scientific t and yes both her and will have amazingly beautiful souls
Sun//Eater is such a beautiful song, I’ve listened to it dozens of times and I can’t get enough
I feel the same way. But my neighbors sure don't!! 😂🤘
Will has the personality of a Jack Russel Terrier and the voice of a demon and I love it
Na he's a labradoodle for sure
This might be the best way I've heard him described, lol
Your reaction to him coming on screen is the cutest. You can tell you really admire him and are excited to hear new music! Welcome to the metal family

Will's annunciation and pronunciation of words is so clear even through such harsh distortion. He is on another level.

Protect him from what?? Will is the last boss in the most metal game of life ever
Recreant fkn goes off!
I will never be able to stress enough how talented Austin archey really is. Playing drums fast is cool, playing them fast and well is cooler, but what he does, both fast and slow, is otherworldly cool. Watch his drum playthroughs, he looks so casual doing everything he does.
That whole band is crazy with their talents. And I love how Elizabeth gets so nerdy over it where most people would just call it screamo noise and dismiss it as music.
Congratulations Elizabeth! 👶
By far most music in that general genre that I have heard, just sounds like boring, fatiguing, "screamo noise"... but this song sure as hell ain't that. This song is really tastefully done with so many elements to appreciate.
@@Siberius- I disagree with your assessment. Cradle of filth would be "screamo" Lorna shore is more "squealeeio"
@@jasonjuneau2948 - He does some pig squeelin' and goblin noises for sure... among a load of other sounds, always keeping it interesting, and the band knows how to accentuate the vocals to make them even better. My least favourite sound is high pitched screeching, but they do it in a tasteful manner where it's slightly dropped into the background, which makes it sound really nice, surprisingly. Some parts are just beautiful.
Never heard death core like how this band does it. People who don't like this general genre of music, are able to instantly just appreciate and enjoy this song for instance. Pretty wild (without it being heavily pop-inspired or such things).
Okay wait you're just taking issue with the term, I didn't fully realise that lol. I'll use whatever term you want to use. I put it in quotes just to use your terminology in the OP. Like a very lax catch-all term for this very general overarching umbrella-category of music.
most people? i doubt it,. Classical choir singer here: That's masterwork level of music, trust me...
Your appreciation and respect for the genre makes me so happy.
Your reaction is what I look for from you: delighted nerdery, scholarly information, and honest emotional response. You always bring a smile. As to Lorna Shore and Will, I usually don't like deathcore, but they have just the right sound for me to enjoy it immensely. While being brutal, the chorus here is glorious in it's triumphant hubris. The latest single, "Cursed to Die", has some moments I find just plain beautiful.
Austin Archy is an ACTUAL drumming god. Homie has the most chops ive ever seen in my life. Actually insane
Check out Alex Pelletier from Despised Icon. Greatest drummer ever. His drumming is pure art
Have you witnessed Aaron Kitcher?
Dan presland of ne obliviscaris
"Aw, shit, here we go again." smh
How about they're all F*cking amazing, and we can enjoy METAL! 🤘
Well, the combo Lorna Shore/Elizabeth certainely never disappoints, great video! Now I am waiting for anything from Shadow of Intent and my life is complete :p
oh, 1000%
Fact! Ben’s vocals are incredible.
@@michaelpaoni7281 That they are
Ben is a beast. No, an actual demon. Lol
She’s even more excited now that the codes been cracked on how Will does it
There were a few times where it looked like she had an orgasm just from listening to his vocals. Lol
I love your excitement over harsh vocals! I remember your first time, Jinjer iirc, and to see how much you’ve grown in appreciation is delightful.
Wow Elizabeth! You've really built up your knowledge on how this kind of vocalization works. This is true analysis and it's great. Thank you. Nobody but you is doing this. Good on you for getting it out there. When are you going to do a song with Lorna Shore already?
Elizabeth is so used to this sound already, that she wants to repeat the whole song again and again. I like to see the improvement in you and your channel as well.
Will has taken Lorna Shore in such a magical direction. The lyrics are very choral, almost angelic?
Also have to admire the respect you have for harsh vocals. I do not know about many clean singers who can look at harsh vocals and go "wow, that's really cool"
With CJ it felt more evil. The contrast between immortal era and pain remains is amazing and the band are soo talented
It is absolute musical genius because him referencing Icarus is actually in foreshadowing. The person who believes that they’re on the vent and they’re lucid, dreaming to none other than fail, and later songs throughout the album the writing for this album was absolutely astonishing.
God I love Elizabeth's reactions to music so much. She's having so much fun it gets me giggling every time.
I think you’d really enjoy Shadow of Intent if you like this song. Specifically The Heretic Prevails. Genuinely mind blowing song vocally and the instrumentals are sick too!
Yeah! Let’s get some Ben reactions on here
I LOVE how you've gone from jumping at every blast of drums and astonishment at the grueling low vocals like in Slaugter reaction, to absolutely loving death metal!!
The contrast of your reaction with "to the hellfire" is hilarious 😂
Your reaction to the second breakdown is adorable
On the combination of anime and death core, I have to mention Brand Of Sacrifice. The band itself and all their songs are fully based on Berserk. Great singer as well! And he has done a cover of The Rumbling (saw it mentioned in the comments) together with Nik Nocturnal of you're interested in that
Yes! These dudes are SO incredible
I've been a Celtic/Gaelic vocalist my whole life/career (and also a lifelong lover of metal and heavy music!) and the intro of this song immediately reminded me of Enya's 'Athair Ar Neamh' - it's a bit different in the complete intro, but has a very similar couple intro notes and that mystical, ethereal vibe!! Love the similarity 🥰
Congrats on the baby, I'm sure music will be a big part of his life.
Watch him love math and nothing else xD
@@ArtDadDraws haha
@@ArtDadDraws mathcore is subgenre of metal. no issues with that
@@ryandickson940 hahaha "Momma, my favorite band is The Chariot!"
@@ArtDadDraws I haven't listened to the chariot in years! Gotta look them up again!
This band really do exceed expectations every time, I have very very high hopes for the future! They really make people feel some kind of emotional feelings they never knew they had, honestly an unbelievably great band
Metal is such an incredibly powerful and diverse genre of music. I think I've been so taken with it just because of the raw, insane amounts of talent involved. Even the members of a generic metal band stomp most other musicians by a long shot. So many raw human emotions can be portrayed, and create something beautiful even when it's so hellish and hectic.
As another commenter said, a collab between you and Lorna shore for a song would be amazing! I absolutely love when bands use typically non-metal instruments like saxophone, violin, or orchestral pieces in their music. Operatic singing would certainly be something special.
Ok so I won't lie have been a silent fan for quite some time. And your knowledge and scientific breakdowns of vocal knowledge have actually helped myself a great deal. And I truly love the relationship you and Will have formed. Tbh he's reached legend status before even being 30 yo, he is one of my biggest idols as a metal vocalist (next to Alex Terrible) but I would absolutely LOVE to see you react and disect the vocals of Dan (Danny) Tucker of Crown magnetar, he is an absolute MONSTER on the mic. Songs like Black Lotus, Full spectrum Hatred, or God is my enemy would be great for your talent of vocal knowledge, his range, transitions, and all around delivery are delightfully brutal and I think you would enjoy giving them a listen, lemme know what you think?
I love her reaction talking about knowing what it looks like. It is so genuine, I love this channel! Also I think Elizabeth is a metal head now
Will sounds like absolute evil, but every interview I've seen of him he seems like a genuinely awesome person. Such a wild contrast!
@@JB-mh5xy I agree with you. 100%. A lot of metal is incredibly deep. So many emotions, and honestly one of the best outlets for said emotions. Metalheads are some of the kindest, most down-to-earth, appreciative people on the planet. I know metal isn't evil. However, Will's vocals only sound that way. Not even the message in the lyrics, only the sound and tonality of his voice. Will is a massive talent, from extre harsh vocals to melodic clean tones like in his one take of Sleep Token's "Hypnotize" Sorry for the confusion
@@nathanmellott2262 Will's Sleep Token cover made me fall in love with him!
Like the lil Teen Girls loving Beiber & Harry Styles & whoever else like Pop stuff, Will is my guy I fan girl over. & I'm a middle aged woman. Insane vocals from A to Z & hes a super rad fun guy & OH SO "DREAMY".
Will sounds like an Angel!
@@LikeMoths2Flame are you a Type O Negative fan by chance?
@@heidiakapineapplel.f.9795 can’t say that I am. Also… can’t say that I amn’t.
As for deathcore being merged with anime or paired for sound or premise, I would suggest you listen to the band brand of sacrifice. Most of their songs are actually based on the anime known as berserk
This is currently my favourite contemporary song. Hands down, it embodies everything i loved about mid 90's black/death metal.
YESSSS🤘🤘🤘I’m not into deathcore. But this band has enough black/melodic qualities that I’m freaking hooked. Dude’s voice has no equal
I can’t stop seeing his throat when he is singing now! Will is amazing! I love how genuinely excited you are with his work! Great reaction video!
I watched your channel already before you started big into metal and I could never ever have imagined, how much joy you could pull out of this music. I love it ❤️
I love how Liz is complementing Will every 5 seconds 😂
This was so fun! Your cute reactions, you are no more afraid of his voice 🤭❤ It's cool to be spoiled by metal👌🤣💀this is my favourite song of all time, it's so unique, beautiful and epic! This is my ringtone too 🤭 wanna see more Lorna watching videos of you! And go listen to Will's cover "Hypnosis", it will be surprising!!! And we wanna see your reaction to it!!!
It's just beautiful and heartwarming to see how much fun you have reacting to this :)
I've loved both classical and metal for a very long time. I can not tell you how refreshing and heartwarming it is to see an artist cross over and appreciate metal without dismissing it as "noise."
Thank you.
Elizabeth! Almost 1 mill subs!!!!
It's amazing how much your career took off after our interview!
(Just kidding)
Where's the party!?
I know the vocals are always the focus of this band, but the music alone is just so amazing. They’re all super talented.
12:20 There's actually an Anime Deathcore band in existence! Brand of Sacrifice. Absolutely incredible, both brutal and technical!!
CONGRATS ON A BABY! LOVE WILL INTO THE EARTH IS THE BEST SONG THEY HAVE PUT OUT AND SUN EATER IS AMAZING TOO AHHHHH
I love how excited she is. Her face just lights up with the beautiful melodies. Love this ❣️👍
The ill touch the sun at 26:23 of yoir video gives me chills every time. My favorite song by them. Unreal. Love your videos btw. I can watch them all day!
Also, you should definitely check out Brand of Sacrifice. Kyle Andersons vocals are phenomenal and the whole group are just the sweetest dudes. and everything about them from song lyrics, names, and even band name is all based off of the Manga/Anime Beserk. one of the most brutal pieces of art out there. highly recommend.
Demon King..... or Lifeblood ft. Will Ramos?? lmao
Shit, forgot to add the cover Kyle did with Nik Nocturnal of SiM's "The Rumbling" from Attack on Titan
@@_amadeus__ oh you know it's gotta be life blood
Came here to suggest this!
Congratulations, Elizabeth.
Hope you and your new son are in excellent health.
I really appreciate your videos.
You always make my day!
Welcome back!
First off congratulations to you both on the brand new baby boy. So glad to see you checking out more Lorna Shore, I highly recommend you checking more of the new singles. Most of all though, please do check out Wills cover of Hypnosis by Sleep Token. Trust me, you will be blown away.
That contortion in his false cords was absolutely amazing. That video was just so EFFING COOL I loved seeing it! Totally gets me to appreciate his music so much more! \ , , /,
Also: I adore just how giggly and excited you get when talking about music in general. It's just so much fun and I have such a fun time laughing along with you! Whenever I watch you singing I just giggle and think to myself "And she likes metal and D&D and anime!" It's just so cool!
Congrats on the baby, by the way! So happy for you!
I would really love to see you check out Tom Barber specifically his band Darko US. I think he has a very unique sound which really shows in Darko, but he’s also a great vocalist in chelsea grin and back when he was still part of Lorna shore.
I think one of my favorite details about the way the lyrics in this song are performed is how early on his higher vocals are used with the "I'll touch the sun" line, and as the song goes on his deeper vocals are used for "I'll eat the sun", and there's even that section towards the end where it goes from one of those high and low back-and-forths to the other one after the other. Love the song, love your reactions, I definitely support the idea of a collab!
“So many shivers!” Haha love it. You should check out Of Mice and Men particularly when Austin Carlile was their vocalist, I think you’d enjoy his style. It’s another one that’s sooooo different
I absolutely love this. I found your channel because of Will Ramos. I like how open minded and positive you are about my favorite music genre. It has been hard to find people who like the same bands as me. Thank you for doing this.
If you haven't already, I think you'd really enjoy fleshgod apocalypse. They even have an opera singer in many songs. Cold as perfection is a very good example!
Great seeing you have so much fun! Will is such a beast. Lorna Shore and Shadow of Intent truly bring the deathcore genre to a new level. In a sea of boring, lifeless slams/breakdowns, when Lorna do a breakdown, it's an epic one. Although, that To The Hellfire one is a once in a career kind of deal. That breakdown probably changed deathcore forever.
3:20 i love to think thats just Austin thinking about all the blast beats he has to deliver in the next minutes :D
I love how she's a total will ramos fangirl now xD such an evolution this channel has taken
I'm curious, have you heard Will sing clean vocals yet? He's really good!
No?
I honestly love your reactions to metal vocalist! I love that it shows someone branching out beyond their particular tastes and finding and appreciating the art for what it is.
That being said I’m really surprised that you haven’t done an analysis of Periphery yet! You really really need to do one for their song Reptile! Yes it’s a long song but I promise you will not be disappointed. If Reptile is too long, Stranger Things is a great alternative to start with! That band is absolutely incredible and your analysis and reaction would be amazing!!
We just released merchandise! Check out the full line-up here: thecharismaticmerch.com
You might be interested to know very select dark series, a notable well known anime being death note do have some harsher openings, not like THIS but check out maximum hormone if you are interested in this type of thing as an "anime opening". Maximum hormones song what's up people is the opening to death note
m.ruclips.net/video/sOd7SOZTMsU/видео.html Combicrist heads off 🤕
Pleaseee do a Analysis of Chelsea Grin!!!!! Clockwork, Playing with fire great songs i would love to see your reaction!
I just wonder when she reacts to the music: - Mais Que Um Mero Poema (Incidental Velhos Outonos |
from the band: Rosa de Saron
she sure will be dumbfounded with Guilherme de Sá's voice.
The whole of Sun Eater is just an amazing experience and the melodies that Lorna Shore can make easily bring a tear to my eye. And also since my mum died from a heart attack boxing day 2021 LS's music has really helped me cope and for that I'll be forever grateful to the band 🤘🏴
First of all, Welcome back!! Secondly, oh dear lordy i cant wait to see your reaction to “ Into the Earth” at some point. Such a visceral experience!
You should totally check out the Japanese groups The Gazette, and Deviloof! Dogma by The Gazette, and Deviloof has many awesome songs!
For sure Deviloof!!!!!
@@Biscuitmaker99 right! The range of the hash vocals in some of their songs is insane!
I really love your reactions!
At the moment Lorna Shore is one of the best crew of artists in their genre!
Im hyped for seeing them live this year!
😊
I don’t know if I can say a lot of “deathcore” makes it into anime, at least not the ones I’ve seen, but I do know that a lot of Japanese Metalcore makes it in for openings and endings and stuff
It's always funny watching you smilingly react to such extreme music :D Cheers and congrats on becoming a mother, I whish you all the best!
You MUST check out the brand new single, "Cursed To Die"... it's *BEAUTIFUL*
Oh my!
Thank you, again, Elizabeth, for what might be your best reaction yet! This was so much fun!
Mad, mad, mad respect for the whole band here. Their coordination is so incredibly tight, especially in the transitions between the (very, very) fast sections and the much slower drops. They're just fantastic.
I'm glad you mentioned how much hard work Austin puts in on the drums. I have it on good authority (from Tank the Tech) that Austin is a real human being and not some kind of robot in disguise. But if ever there were a prime candidate for being a metal drumming god, it's Austin.
With this song, of course, I have to re-evaluate the sub-genre in which Lorna Shore fits. When I first encountered them, I heard their style called blackened deathcore. Having listened to their "And I Return to Nothingness" EP, I realised they were better described as blackened, symphonic melodeathcore. I now realise, however, that they're actually progressive, blackened, symphonic melodeathcore . . .
😉
Elizabeth describing Will's Vocals is like a proud mother like yeah that's my boy
love her excitement. gets me every time! I wish I could listen to new music with the same intensity lol
It’d be great to see a collab where you did the operatic background vocals.
Gotdamn. He is in-cred-ible. And your reaction knowing your expertise and visualizations of what he is doing in his throat (the amazing twisted vocal coordination) and your glee to this is beyond amazing.
do you think we'll ever hear you do doing backing vocals on a Lorna shore song one day? Like the kind of thing they have in their songs already but more dynamic, as you an Will Ramos are friends I guess
WOW! WHAT A VOICE! That man has a vocal range, that's just insane!! 😲🔥 And I also really enjoyed the song as rock/metal head myself! Great reaction too! I need to check out more Lorna Shore
Awesome content as always. You definitely should check out their newest song "Cursed To Die". It's easily the best single off this new album yet.
personally i think Into The Earth is a much better song overall, probably the best off the new record so far, followed by Sun//Eater
You look so proud. I hope you and Will stayed in touch! You two have such great chemistry as friends and Im waiting for the next episode of my favorite cooking show!!
Lorna Shore - Into The Earth. Great song where he does more vocal techniques.
You're hair looks amazing, elisabeth 🙂☺️
You should really do into the earth next the breakdown is crazy as it always is with will
Welcome back and congrats on the new addition!
Just wanna say the singing at the start is in Greek not Latin, the words are Kyrie Eleison It's an old Greek prayer song that means "God, Please save us" or "God have mercy" depending on how it's said
