Nita Strauss is the guitar player. She is an incredible talent. She just recently left Alice Cooper's band after many years as his lead guitarist. She was also one of the guitarists for the all female Iron Maiden tribute band "The Iron Maidens". Highly suggest checking out her resume. Alissa is the lead singer from Arch Enemy. She is the one doing the gutteral vocals.
As others have said, Nita wrote and recorded all of the guitar and bass tracks and Alissa co-wrote and recorded the vocals, Nita's boyfriend Josh is on drums, and her friend Kat is on keyboards. This is a cut from Nita's second solo album, which will be about half instrumentals and half vocal songs with guest artists. Nita played with Alice Cooper for eight years before joining Demi Lovato's touring band this summer. She hopes to inspire other young women to play electric guitar just as she was inspired by seeing Jennifer Batten. Touring with Demi shoves her right in front of thousands of screaming young women. Glad you enjoyed it as much as I do!
Nita Strauss guitar used to be in Iron Maidens. All female Iron Maiden cover band. Also Femme Fatale and Alice Cooper. Alissa White-Gluz vocals are Canadian and the girlfriend of Doyle Wolfgang Von Frankenstein aka Paul Caiafa from the Misfits. She's the lead vocalist of Swedish metal band Arch Enemy. Has also recorded with Metal Allegiance and Kane Roberts/Alice Cooper. The drummer are Josh Villalta. Boyfriend of Nita Strauss. Nita is said to be a descendant of Austrian composer Johann Strauss through her father. Nita are a big fan of guitarist Jason Becker and got to play for him some years ago. Jason Becker was diagnosed with ALS in 1989. He can only communicate with his eyes but still makes music with the help of a friend
Geebz you are the best! Period! You focus on music, not images. It’s the most frustrating thing about the reactors now. I have the most immense respect for you buddy!
you reacted to The world is yours /Arch Enemy/ a while ago, well that who's singing here, Alissa.... and Nita on the guitar :) two great girls in what they do :)
I saw Nita Strauss while she was in IRON MAIDENS. Then she joined ALICE COOPER... She is still touring with ALICE COOPER. She's the first person to play guitar over the P.A. at SOFI Stadium in Los Angeles and is the official musician of the Los Angeles Rams, who gave her her own Superbowl Ring.
Wow this was unexpected. Thanks! I love Nita Strauss and vocalist Alissa White-Gluz!. Nita & Alissa are in a small but growing number of women musicians/ guitarists who represent Metal music and most definitely kicks A##. 😀 Nita is Los Angeles born and is known for being the Touring guitarist for Alice Cooper, and before that the female group & guitarist that did incredible covers of Iron Maiden She recently left Alice Cooper's band to tour with Demi Lovato which I don't understand., but she still IS a METAL GODDESS! Girls can rule too!.🎸🌹💯 I'm still here....
My honest reaction: Holy F*ck! What a couple of awesome, badass metal women. I already knew that Alissa was a vocal beast, and versatile, too- such a sweet clean singing voice, paired with fierce low growls. I’d never seen/heard Nita play guitar, but damn, she killed it. I’m gonna have to go buy this track right away.
Nita writes amazing songs, she also plays bass on this song. Her other awesome song is dead inside. Her album is all guitar no vocals it is sonically amazing.
THE WARNING is a band you MUST listen and react to. Three sisters who are 17-22 years old and rising fast! If you want to see talent, you cannot go another day without checking them out! They started when they were 9-15 years old. Amazing!!!!!
Hey man, I’ve been here since the beginning and I’ve noticed you haven’t done much on the reggae side. Check out the band Rebelution. They are an amazing rock reggae band from California.
This is probably my favorite of Alissa's vocals. As for Nita, she left Alice Cooper not long ago. An album of these two would be amazing for sure. We can dream.
Just a heads up... Riverside has a new song called "I'm done with you" and it's awesome. Great band to do a slow burn on, include: [Song mentioned above] Escalator shrine Second life syndrome river down below 4 different albums, 4 different time periods yet distinctively Riverside. Much to uncover...
I'm still here! This is probably the best song I've heard from Nita. It always seemed like a lot of the hype around her was because she's an attractive woman that's also a very capable guitarist which is rare to find in hard rock/metal, because her songs I always found to be just ok, and fairly unoriginal. Hopefully this is a sign of a step forward in that regard. Hopefully the new gig with Demi Lovato pays well enough to propel her solo work further.
? WHAT? You haven't checked Agonist or Arch Enemy yet? Alissa White-Gluz(bluehaired woman) she's current Arc Enemy vocalist. Nita Strauss is an former Alice Coopers bands Guitarist.
nita Is the guitarist. She's originally from the iron maidens Cover band which she played and rocked for for many years. She played with Alice Cooper for the previous 2 - 3 years and this is her 1st so solo record. She is as talented as she is beautiful

Alissa is the current vocalist for Arch Enemy. Nita was Alice Cooper's guitarist for many years.
Geebs, you should check out arch enemy track "Handshake with hell"

You can hear some of those years playing with Alice in that some of that guitar solo...and you can DEFINITELY see it in her showmanship.

This song brought back memories of Alissa's "The Agonist" era.
Her growling has improved a lot since those days though.

Man, Geebz! Been watching you for awhile now! Absolutely LOVE all that you do. Your "Decomposing" is incredibly impressive, and amazing to watch!
Nita plays both- guitar and bass. 💙🤘😎
Geebz you are the best! Period! You focus on music, not images. It’s the most frustrating thing about the reactors now. I have the most immense respect for you buddy!
I appreciate that, Steeve :)
The main riff gives of total "Lamb of God" vibes
plus alissa sounds a bit like randy blythe or maybe it's just that their growling style is the same
the main riff kinds reminds me of DNR by Testament too
you reacted to The world is yours /Arch Enemy/ a while ago, well that who's singing here, Alissa.... and Nita on the guitar :) two great girls in what they do :)
I've seen Nita play with Alice Cooper once. I've seen her solo in a small club near Detroit twice. Amazing guitar playing every time .

Demi levato is doing rock/metal now. She’s always been a metal fan. Watch interviews….she mentions Job For a Cowboy as a huge influence
@@Ewright85 Thanks for the info. 👍 I did not know Demi is a fan of metal. Job for a Cowboy is a nice choice 🤠 They're an awesome band. 🤛🤘💯
@@carolynm.7530 a bunch of artists in the pop/hip-hop world are closet metal heads.
@@Ewright85 Yes, l understand 😘 I'll look into this further 🤘💕💯
Finally someone says catfight instead of death stare! THANK YOU!!

I’m still here!
Nita Strauss plays the bass too!
Still here. You should check out some Nile tracks.
The vocalist is Alissa. A self confessed straight edge vegan, I came across her while looking up Vegan Metal artists.
epic song epic video these women are a holy terror god said their your problem
Nita writes amazing songs, she also plays bass on this song. Her other awesome song is dead inside. Her album is all guitar no vocals it is sonically amazing.
Man the tempo shifts in this were really throwing me off I would get into a groove and then it would change all the sudden LOL
You should do the Arch Enemy song, The Watchers".... incredible track.

My first time hearing her and I've got her signature ibanez :D
these ladies are the dark overlords bow and scrape mortal

You already reviewed Alissa White Gluz about a year ago when she was featuring in the Kamelot video :).
and Arch Enemy.
More Kamelot is needed though!
Just a heads up...
Riverside has a new song called "I'm done with you" and it's awesome.
Great band to do a slow burn on, include:
[Song mentioned above]
Escalator shrine
Second life syndrome
river down below
4 different albums, 4 different time periods yet distinctively Riverside. Much to uncover...
Absolutely agree!!!!!

👍👍
architect!
Can you please react to Echos by Pink Floyd?
Nita played guitar for Alice Cooper.
I liked the beginning and the end. Moar brewtal please
I think the song is not that bad but the thematic is kind of... oversold.
Nita almost stole the show from Alice F$&ing Cooper, the King of Showmen. I was an instant convert
CHONH3NHO ( Pagan guy)+ NHOP2H3,(Bourgeois girl) it`s how it`s composed (A 1) therefore you're minor ( A 2)
nita Is the guitarist. She's originally from the iron maidens Cover band which she played and rocked for for many years. She played with Alice Cooper for the previous 2 - 3 years and this is her 1st so solo record. She is as talented as she is beautiful
8 years with the Coop!
She was with Alice Cooper for 8 years, and this is her second solo album
an overlord fight
nita i didnt you had this in you lol
Alissa is legit one of the most talented metal vocalists alive today. I just wish that she didn't make pop-metal.
Whatever dude... How about just celebrating Metal instead of dividing it?
Unpop metal is definitely better fo sho

@@m.vondrake5534 Thanks for the lesson I didn't need.
@@minbari73 Anytime. ONE-METAL Unites Us ALL 🤘💀
I came from the slow burn and I'd like to request Linkin Park - Breaking the Habit and The Catalyst. Those two from them are just on a different level
The chorus hook is great.
..but outside that part I heard 9 million notes and didnt feel a single one.... Its just an opinion
Cheesy Metal has right to exist... but it stinks :)
That was aweful music
