I think too many people are afraid to admit that their music can bring out emotions. I am not afraid of the fact I enjoy the emotions of their music. Respect for being honest.
..... the contortionist doesnt do anything musically or vocally stimulating though (since language came out they got very boring). not on the level a band like tesseract does.
Daniel Tompkins is one of my favourite vocalists alongside Tomi Joutsen from Amorphis and Einar Solberg from Leprous. His work with Earthside's A Dream in Static is just incredible.
@@Neroese1 His singing is very, very competent. A lot like Mikael Akerfeldt...technically excellent, but doesn't blow my socks off. But then you combine that with his growls. Holy fuck. He kills that shit in the live performances, too.
TesseracT are really on point. I admit I had a hard time digesting them, the music is sometimes too atmospheric, experimental and technical for my taste of metal, but lady, OH, when they finally got me (I think it was with the song Nocturne), I am becoming a superfan lol
ye, same. You really have to get into them! I´ve seen them my first time like 4 years ago, a friend took me and i didn´t know them to begin with. I told him i didn´t like them, back then. 3 Years later he took me again and i loved them! It just took me a bit to get used to their style, now i am kinda inspired by how emotional they are (for me)
Same here! I didn’t quite like them but didn’t really dislike them. Then I listened to altered state which clicked with me and now they’re one of my favorite along with The Contortionist! Do you have a favorite album??
The Altered State record was really my "Ah-hah" moment with them. I couldn't stop listening to it over and over. The atmosphere was just so damn brilliant on that one. I realize it was with Ashe on vocals instead of Dan, but it doesn't change how absolutely mind-blowing that album is.
It's not background music and it's not the super cerebral "what the fuck is going on?" type of music you get in other bands. They have a very "pop" style of vocal sometimes but they rely a lot more on atmosphere and "feeling" as well as the groove created by the bass and "djenty" guitar leads they incorporate. It's quite an interesting mix but it does require that you let it take you along for the ride. Rather than really listening intently it's meant to be "felt" to a large extent.
Leprous - Slave live at rockerfeller please!! So happy someone finally does TesseracT, i'm learning this song on the drums right now, i love it. Seeing LeProus & TesseracT this weekend too! :)
Really enjoyed this reaction video. One of the best ones I've seen in a while. Not going to put in a request, just going to soak it up, TesseracT are a lucky band to have such fantastic vocalists.
This is the only song Martin sings on, Dan Tompkins is the vocalist for TesseracT. Dan is amazing on his own, but add Martin and it's just ridiculously amazing.
Dan Tompkins is one of the best vocalists within progressive metal genre. Any project of his be it White Moth Black Butterfly, ZETA, Skyharbor (first two) or his main Gig Tesseract, you can guarantee will always be fantastic vocals wise. More of him please!
I love this video. You rarely see people getting touched to tears by music. Gave me shivers. Also, i missed this live version of Hexes, so i'm glad i cached up.The clear explanation about what a vocal 'mix' is topped it perfectly. Keep up the good work, Beth!
YES!! I barely see anyone reacting to Tesseract and I don't understand it. They are a great band and Daniel (who is a vocal coach himself) is just amazing. I'm so glad you liked it :) PS. I agree with the others who have suggested Leprous. The vocalist Einar is very talented, as are all the other members. In particular, I have a soft spot for Bard, the drummer ;)
anastu It was through him I found this song and Tesseract. He's an astonishing vocalist and musician with sublime control, range and emotion. Criminally underrated in my opinion.
After I discovered him I listened to his own music and I was blown away, his music hits a really really emotional point in my heart. I love him so much and I'm glad I found him, his music is just one of a kind and he's so pure. He really deserves more recognition.
Oh my.. when I head on to YT to hear this song again (the original video), i always got those tears in my eyes, and then I remember you and watch this video, and I got tears in my eyes again when I see you have tears in your eyes. These guys just know how to get you. I got this warm pressure on my chest over and over again, and I feel with you so much. Love it.

Martin Grech is my favourite male voice. So haunting, so much emotion and his music and lyrics are just beautiful. Criminal that he's not released more music. Check out Ashes to Embers or Sun.
Thank you Beth for a great review. If you loved Hexes you should do Of Matter by Tesseract with Ash O'Hara on vocal or Tourniquet with Daniel Tompkins. Both are great vocalists
your reaction to this video, especially when dan first started singing, made me so happy. to see someone else have such a similar reaction to the amazing and compositional talent of these guys. your videos are awesome... keep up the good work!
So glad you looked in to TesseracT. They basically had three vocalists in total. Daniel Tompkings, Elliot Coleman and Ashe O Hara. Daniel Tompkins returned to the band and this is him singing.
Great reaction. I love how you break down the specifics of the vocal work...I feel like I've learned so much from your videos. Keep up the great work Beth!!!!
Those vocals from about 5:50 are inspired by a classical Hindustani raaga called Bhairavi. He must have picked it up during his stint with the Skyharbor project.
I have watched this reaction video so many times. The song/performance is so great, but seeing your emotional reaction to it makes it that much better.
I love how you can see the instant frisson hits (2:33-2:34) and then the onset of physiological responses. The fact that music can do this is absolutely magical.
Your facial reactions are so expressive that I feel like your on a rollercoaster of emotion going from surprised to sadness to amazement every single second. So different to other reaction channels. So fun. Instant Sub.
Great request by a great band...I must've watched this same performance a dozen times over the last couple years. And I love the number of requests for Leprous - Slave! I've watched that performance a ton, as well. If we eventually get reactions to that, Karnivool, Caligula's Horse, and The Dear Hunter, it would be so cool.
That was superb! I love your videos, have been watching for 2h straight! So much insight! This is brilliant. Also I love your bright personality, it is very easy to laugh or cry along with you!
Here's a song for some strong feels- Monochrome (Pensive) by The Contortionist. TesseracT and The Contortionist are my two top favorite bands. They are both absolutely in a class of their own.
Thanks for the reaction and shoutout Beth! It was everything I hoped it would be Haha very interesting as always! Keep being awesome! 😉 Plus, I feel honored that my request got some tears flowing. Always glad to spread the music, BEAUTIFUL!
seems that no-one in this comments thread has mentioned Martin Grech. he's amazing. I bought his first album off the strength of the single that was used in a Lexus advert. if you get a chance check him out on his own, he's a vocal gymnast with a sense of musicality that blows the mind! (seen him live a couple of times too and he's just as good!)
Oh man how did I not know Tesseract did a song with Martin Grech?! I saw him live in the early 2000's at Exeter Cavern and it was equal parts haunting and mesmerising. Open Heart Zoo is a song that will stay with me forever.
Love watching the way the music and the singing just washes over you . The singer and the backing vocals were like a dance. Thank you for this one, I haven't heard it before...
TesseracT are my favorite group of all time. But this song evokes more emotion from me than any song I’ve ever listened. They truly are masters of their craft. Thank you for covering this song genuinely!
Dan is amazing! Have you checked out his other projects- White Moth Black Butterfly, and Zeta?? Great stuff! I’d also recommend a band called Leprous with a fantastic singer called Einar Solberg...rest of the band is killer too!
2:28 and 3:13 is me every time I listen to a Tesseract song. So freakin emotional! Best moments in any of your reaction videos. I'm glad to see I'm not the only one getting super emotional when hearing Tesseract's music. I would love to see more Tesseract reaction videos.
Lucky enough to hear them both perform this live in person, needless to say they absolutely nailed it, one of my favorites, the chorus still gives me chills.
I've subscribed after watching this video :) I love Tesseract, vocals are amazing. I listened to Daniel's podcasts about vocals. Very impressive voice!
I'm so ecstatic. 😍 Mainly because I've given you a solo vocal video of theirs before, mostly LOL Edit: Oh and i spent the whole time like: she has no idea what's coming. Sorry I'm fangasming. 😂
I love the in-depth analysis you give on every video Beth, as well as the theory you're imparting with us. I don't always understand it 100% (heck, I think even 80% is already pushing it) but it's really nice and refreshing to see someone with proper knowledge not just look at a video and say "yeah, it's pretty good," but you actually try and explain what is going on to us, the common peasants. Keep doing you!
Tompkins and Grech kill it on this one. Its hard for anyone to stand up to Daniel (like playing guitar next to Tosin Abasi). but Martin really stands out as a distinct and meaningful part next to Daniel here.
TESSERACT - my favourite fucking band! So glad you stumbled on them Beth! Absolutely loved every bit of that breakdown. Dan Tompkins is the man, and he is also a vocal coach, just like you. You should check his channel out on RUclips, pretty sick playthrough videos of his own songs from a bunch bands he's been in over the years. And you should react to "Tesseract - Of Matter (Live at Sphere Studios)" next, its an absolute must. Has Ashe O'Hara on vocals during his short stay with the band. Stellar stuff, and you'll love it even more, if you loved this.
Even though I love Daniel, I wish Beth listened to the live version of Of Matter with Ashe O'Hara. There just something about that album and the way Ashe completes the sound... Also, yes, anything by Leprous.
I always preferred Dan, and his stage presence over Ashe, BUT, Altered State is my favorite album from them. So, this is a bit of a conundrum for me, lol. And yeah, that album is almost perfect with Ashe's vocals and the atmospheric music.
@@sicboi80 Ashe killed it in the studio, but the problem was replicating those tonnes of layers of vocals live. That's where Dan truly wins. He's just as consistent live as he is in studio. Both great vocalists in their own right though.
@@shreykundra7 To be fair though, i'm sure they had the other vocal tracks layered in with their live show, or could do that at least. But Ashe just isn't that great live imo.
@@sicboi80 That's right, but Dan has very little backing vocals in his shows, and they're buried deep in the mix too. I remember Ashe used to have almost choir like mixes live, which kind of weren't my thing. It didn't help his harsh vocals were just not good either.
I think Slave or Rewind would be better. I love Contaminate me and Ihsahn, don't get me wrong, but I think a song where Einar sings solo would fit better here
Honestly never mind Tesseract, go and check out Martin Grech’s solo stuff, i recommend the song open heart zoo as it will probably be right up your ally vocal wise. He wrote and recorded the album when he was 17, hes an unsung genius...
Beth! You should check out Tesseract again! They just put out a new single and Daniel Tompkins has gotten even better. You will hear new things from him!
I was waiting for you to react to this band, made me smile seeing your reaction (you can't fake that), they have another song Phoenix recorded in the same studio. Dan Tompkins is easily my favourite vocalist, he has alot of colabs out there aswell.
Daniel Tompkins is one of my favorite singers. he can put so much emotion in his singing. When i saw that you reacted to him i was kinda jumping in my chair. Please react to more songs from Tesseract! They are great.
I loved Martin grech first album about fifteen or twenty years ago and then he just vanished...saw him live twice and his voice was amazing...always wondered what he was upto
listen to tesseract for 15 secs ----> cries, That's my reaction everytime pretty much xD
I wish more people commented on the video and didn’t just act like, “whatever, do my song!”
same.
I think too many people are afraid to admit that their music can bring out emotions. I am not afraid of the fact I enjoy the emotions of their music. Respect for being honest.
cried out of boredom
Glad I wasn't the only person feeling the crazy amounts of emotion in each and every one of their masterpieces
This new trend of vocal coaches reacting to Djent bands is my favorite thing
@Sean Rooker huge facts
Facts x 1,000,000
They aint Djent, they are Ambient MathCore
Think of it more as prog power metal.
@@asmitghosh6092 that's a very specific label
“This is what I would listen to on a nice relaxing evening”
*djent kicks in*
wjdjakjdj so true bro this is awesome
Daniel Tompkins is a great vocalist and Beth's emotional reaction is understandable. :)
Completely understandable.
Except this is Martin Grech? I dunno man, keeping track of Tesseract's singers is a full time job.
it's both Tompkins and Grech. Dan's the band's regular singer; Martin was simply a guest on this track.
Nah, she's just a sweet girl, not many people would be touched like this at first audition. Glad she captured that on screen
I feel like this each time i listen to this man's voice
The Contortionist - Language
Yes fucking yes
OH BOE, HELL THE FUCK YEAH SHE NEED TO DO IT!
..... the contortionist doesnt do anything musically or vocally stimulating though (since language came out they got very boring). not on the level a band like tesseract does.
IF SHE DOES THIS I WILL BE SO HAPPY
... Rediscovered!
Daniel Tompkins is one of my favourite vocalists alongside Tomi Joutsen from Amorphis and Einar Solberg from Leprous. His work with Earthside's A Dream in Static is just incredible.
Yea! Tomi Joutsen!
No Ashe O'hara though ;)
Also His work with skyharbor, songs like "kaikoma" miracle and guiding lights"😍😍😍😍
A dream in static is perfect
@@Neroese1 His singing is very, very competent. A lot like Mikael Akerfeldt...technically excellent, but doesn't blow my socks off.
But then you combine that with his growls. Holy fuck. He kills that shit in the live performances, too.
Karnivool - We Are... there is a live acoustic one on some Australian radio show
Would *really* recommend Karnivool, upvoted.
TesseracT are really on point. I admit I had a hard time digesting them, the music is sometimes too atmospheric, experimental and technical for my taste of metal, but lady, OH, when they finally got me (I think it was with the song Nocturne), I am becoming a superfan lol
ye, same. You really have to get into them! I´ve seen them my first time like 4 years ago, a friend took me and i didn´t know them to begin with. I told him i didn´t like them, back then. 3 Years later he took me again and i loved them! It just took me a bit to get used to their style, now i am kinda inspired by how emotional they are (for me)

I only recently discovered them and utterly fell in love. So good.

I like TesseracT. This one is great too TESSERACT - Of Matter (Live at Sphere Studios)
Different vocalist too, with alot to appreciate in a different way.
Yeah that's using Ashe instead of Daniel... personally ashe is more powerful than Daniel just lacks some range and tone change that Dan has
this is a must
Yes!
Nah ashes performance is pretty standard, he doesn't sing any of the high notes in those songs, ashe was a disappointing vocalist live
Kamelot a couple of days ago and now Tesseract, what a great week :)
So glad TesseracT is blowing up. They’ve been my favorite band since early high school. So cool to see them getting big, they deserve it.
TESSERACT - Of Matter (Live at Sphere Studios) is a MUST
Beth, your emotional reactions are making me emotional, stop 😭
Leprous - Slave or The Flood (both from Live At Rockefeller Music Hall) please!
Yes I Was Thinking Leprous As Well Hmmm???
This is all that we need. Einar's voice is outstanding and this performance always blows my mind
She should just cover that whole show to be honest
"Contaminate Me" would make for a fun watch for obvious reasons but yea, probably best to ease into a band like Leprous.
I'm gonna vote for the flood on this, only because I like that song better out of the two :P
Leprous - Slave live at rockerfeller please!!
So happy someone finally does TesseracT, i'm learning this song on the drums right now, i love it.
Seeing LeProus & TesseracT this weekend too! :)
I would say Leprous - Contaminate me (live) with Ihsahn as well! really brings out the atmosphere!
Really enjoyed this reaction video. One of the best ones I've seen in a while. Not going to put in a request, just going to soak it up, TesseracT are a lucky band to have such fantastic vocalists.

One of the great things about being a fan of Dan's vocals is there are a LOT of excellent albums to enjoy that he's sang on.
Completely agree and he's so humble!
Absolutely!! He’s put out lots of great music!! And a hell of a nice guy and humble!! Got to meet him last year...
Now he has his solo album too!!! Castles is badass
Really miss him from First signs of frost.
I've been waiting so long for a vocal coach to react to tesseract, subscribed!
Martin Grech - Open Heart Zoo is a pretty amazing performance, there's a great live version of it too. Very underrated musician and vocalist.
Facts.
I love this video. You rarely see people getting touched to tears by music. Gave me shivers. Also, i missed this live version of Hexes, so i'm glad i cached up.The clear explanation about what a vocal 'mix' is topped it perfectly. Keep up the good work, Beth!
YES!! I barely see anyone reacting to Tesseract and I don't understand it. They are a great band and Daniel (who is a vocal coach himself) is just amazing. I'm so glad you liked it :) PS. I agree with the others who have suggested Leprous. The vocalist Einar is very talented, as are all the other members. In particular, I have a soft spot for Bard, the drummer ;)
PlugInKali Honestly, I think their videos get blocked a lot. Maybe that’s why. And I agree with the Leprous recommendation.
dude, i think tesseract is,,,, just love
I'd be curious to hear her thoughts on the vocals from the new Architects record. There isn't a ton of variation in his voice, but so much emotion...
No love for Martin Grech's part in the comments. :( He's such an underrated musician and I highly recommend his discography if you like Tesseract!
anastu It was through him I found this song and Tesseract. He's an astonishing vocalist and musician with sublime control, range and emotion. Criminally underrated in my opinion.
Martin Grech is the best musician most people have never heard of
Crazy, isn't it? His latest album is on Spotify and you can also find him on Patreon for some unreleased songs.
After I discovered him I listened to his own music and I was blown away, his music hits a really really emotional point in my heart.
I love him so much and I'm glad I found him, his music is just one of a kind and he's so pure.
He really deserves more recognition.
Open heart zoo ....best song ..
Oh my.. when I head on to YT to hear this song again (the original video), i always got those tears in my eyes, and then I remember you and watch this video, and I got tears in my eyes again when I see you have tears in your eyes.

🎶🎶 Lyrics...🎶
Is there something I should know
Of the colours that you show
I remember those words
In the back of my mind
There is an old phantom
It isn't a secret this mind's shrouded in history
It isn't a secret this mind spirals in disarray
It isn't a secret this mind shatters in mystery
It isn't a secret I find terror in memory
Come close
Don't be afraid
It's stranger than you think
Desperately opiate weary
Feaverish host to us teary eyed
History hexes us
History hexes us
Don't look Don't think
Don't feel Don't move
Don't breathe Don't make a sound
It lives It breaths
In my conscious mind
(Rosebud don't change)
It isn't a secret this mind's shattered in history
It isn't a secret this mind spirals in disarray
It isn't a secret this mind shatters in mystery
It isn't a secret I find terror in memory
I live and breathe again
Through these gory locks don't you dare forget them
Don't you dare!
Don't you dare!
History hexes us
I breathe again!
History hexes us
I live again. 🤔🎶🎶
This band reminds me of Karnivool (an Australian progressive metal band - respect). You ought to check these fellers out, Beth.
100%! She'd probably love All I Know!
Or Birds of Tokyo, his voice is beautiful...
Karnivool is freaking awesome..all I know and themata is my all time favourite 💚
All I know got so much interesting stuff going, wish our lovely host could react to that 😁
Make more albums Karnivool!
Anathema - untouchable live has always been one of my favorites
Omg yes why didn't I think of this earlier! Beth should definitely react to Anathema!
yes, this absolutely has to happen
All shades of yes
I love the way u teaching all the little parts of the music!! Watching u from Brazil
Martin Grech is my favourite male voice. So haunting, so much emotion and his music and lyrics are just beautiful. Criminal that he's not released more music. Check out Ashes to Embers or Sun.
One of the best reactions of a song that I have ever seen! You are special, Beth. Now you have to catch them live! :)
Thank you Beth for a great review. If you loved Hexes you should do Of Matter by Tesseract with Ash O'Hara on vocal or Tourniquet with Daniel Tompkins. Both are great vocalists
You know you have created something outstandingly beautiful when you have a nice girl in tears as soon as the vocals start
Should check out Spencer of Periphery and Elliott of Good Tiger
Oh man Elliot is so good. I'm happy to find another Good Tiger fan!
@@Badzad31 Good tiger is a great song
Could check out Tesseract's earlier stuff when Elliot was their singer.
Spencer, the best pop-punk vocalist in progressive metal
Both bands are fucking insane!
your reaction to this video, especially when dan first started singing, made me so happy. to see someone else have such a similar reaction to the amazing and compositional talent of these guys. your videos are awesome... keep up the good work!
So glad you looked in to TesseracT. They basically had three vocalists in total. Daniel Tompkings, Elliot Coleman and Ashe O Hara. Daniel Tompkins returned to the band and this is him singing.
Daniel was actually the second. There was another one before him.
Coleman!! I wish we had more with him
Actually there were 5.
The first ones were Julien Perier and Abisola Obasanya
Great reaction. I love how you break down the specifics of the vocal work...I feel like I've learned so much from your videos. Keep up the great work Beth!!!!
Those vocals from about 5:50 are inspired by a classical Hindustani raaga called Bhairavi. He must have picked it up during his stint with the Skyharbor project.
Except for that's Martin and not Daniel?
I have watched this reaction video so many times. The song/performance is so great, but seeing your emotional reaction to it makes it that much better.
Really digging the reactions to prog rock and metal lately!
I love how you can see the instant frisson hits (2:33-2:34) and then the onset of physiological responses. The fact that music can do this is absolutely magical.
you definetly need to check their new song LEGION
THIS!!! please we need a reaction to war of being also or Sirens that song hits hard!!
Beth - your channel is so refreshing! I love your positive and bubby personality. Keep it up 😀
Dan has to be one of the best vocalists of his generation. Definitely check out his work in Earthside's A Dream In Static.
Oooh, that was a brilliant one!
Your facial reactions are so expressive that I feel like your on a rollercoaster of emotion going from surprised to sadness to amazement every single second. So different to other reaction channels. So fun. Instant Sub.
Great request by a great band...I must've watched this same performance a dozen times over the last couple years.

Jack Randall Thank you!! Right? Martin Grech is astonishing.
Speechless, I'm in love with this reactor since the first time i saw her reaction to singers... i love this girl.... more blessings....
Dan's vocals are soooo beautiful. I've never heard him sing a song that didn't sound beautiful.
Oh man how did I not know Tesseract did a song with Martin Grech?! I saw him live in the early 2000's at Exeter Cavern and it was equal parts haunting and mesmerising. Open Heart Zoo is a song that will stay with me forever.
oh Betty I love you for this
Well, they're my favorite band, so I'm certainly one of you!
There are many, many of us worldwide!
Sure, you're not alone, french's fan on coming.
Djent will save us !
Indian fan standing proud here
I mean they're pretty popular
Love watching the way the music and the singing just washes over you . The singer and the backing vocals were like a dance. Thank you for this one, I haven't heard it before...
Leprous - Slave (live), please.
TesseracT are my favorite group of all time. But this song evokes more emotion from me than any song I’ve ever listened. They truly are masters of their craft. Thank you for covering this song genuinely!
Dan Tompkins is amazing, by far my favourite vocalist
Dude, same!
He sings some really tough lines, and his tone never suffers. Dan's insanely good!
I think he's one of the best singers today. Including all singers from all genres.
Dan is amazing! Have you checked out his other projects- White Moth Black Butterfly, and Zeta?? Great stuff!
I’d also recommend a band called Leprous with a fantastic singer called Einar Solberg...rest of the band is killer too!
Mine too!
❤ best reaction video. Music is made for moving people, thank you for your passion Beth! Xox
Thank you Beth. You should do Of Matter live at Sphere Studio's with Ashe on vocals. Tesseract at their best there.
Yesssss! This!
I miss Ashe tesseract
Agreed 100% - Ear-gas-mic that 1st album w/ Ashe
So much this, one of the best
I like Daniel wayyy more but Ashe is still a phenomenal vocalist, i just don't care for his tone compared to daniel.
Great video as always always love you're reactions
Love this, would also love some Bjork! Maybe a live version of "Hyper-ballad"?
Great vid, favorite singer, and favorite song!!!!!! ❤
2:28 and 3:13 is me every time I listen to a Tesseract song.
So freakin emotional! Best moments in any of your reaction videos.
I'm glad to see I'm not the only one getting super emotional when hearing Tesseract's music.
I would love to see more Tesseract reaction videos.
Yeah, I'll bet she'd feel Tourniquet!
Lucky enough to hear them both perform this live in person, needless to say they absolutely nailed it, one of my favorites, the chorus still gives me chills.
Leprous - Slave (Live at Rockefeller)! Welcome to the prog world :)
I would say Leprous - Contaminate me (live) with Ihsahn as well! really brings out the atmosphere
She has done a couple of prog songs though...definitely Leprous pretty much anything Einar sings it, turn to gold.
Love the Leprous suggestion, but I personally prefer Stuck. I think it's got more going on as a song.
Great video! Never really heard a TesseracT song, but I think I now have to listen to more :)
Great reaction. I'm gonna have to jump on the Leprous hype train as well, since they're my favorite band. I'll suggest Slave (live at Rockefeller).
Incredible! I love motivational and inspiring music like this. Makes me want to be better in anything I'm doing.
Tesseract - Of Matter: Live at Sphere Studios is probably in my top 5 favorite studio live performances. Beth, do yourself a favor and check it out.
I've subscribed after watching this video :)
I love Tesseract, vocals are amazing. I listened to Daniel's podcasts about vocals. Very impressive voice!
I'm so ecstatic. 😍
Mainly because I've given you a solo vocal video of theirs before, mostly LOL
Edit: Oh and i spent the whole time like: she has no idea what's coming.
Sorry I'm fangasming. 😂
Me too! It was fun to see her experience this. :)
SO HAPPY YOU'VE DONE TESSERACT!! They are like my favourite band. I know every lyric and gave this tune a go on RUclips and man is it hard to sing :O
Martin Grech’s been doing own his own thing a long time. Check out his album Open Heart Zoo & title track. Amazing voice.
I love the in-depth analysis you give on every video Beth, as well as the theory you're imparting with us.
I don't always understand it 100% (heck, I think even 80% is already pushing it) but it's really nice and refreshing to see someone with proper knowledge not just look at a video and say "yeah, it's pretty good," but you actually try and explain what is going on to us, the common peasants.
Keep doing you!
Tompkins and Grech kill it on this one. Its hard for anyone to stand up to Daniel (like playing guitar next to Tosin Abasi). but Martin really stands out as a distinct and meaningful part next to Daniel here.
Gotta love to see you headbang to that session... Impossible to not !
Great reaction
Ill jump on the Leprous hype train, go for "stuck" or "From the flame", some newer ones
+1 for Stuck!
@@alexreinking i feel like Stuck is far too underrated
the full version of stuck is a beauty
YES!!! I'm so glad you did song, it's one of my favorites by them!!
This next!! Daniel Tompkins - Celestial (Live Rehearsal) Skyharbor
White Moth Black Butterfly is fantastic for just showing what Daniel can do. Allure is a fantastic song by them
TESSERACT - my favourite fucking band! So glad you stumbled on them Beth! Absolutely loved every bit of that breakdown. Dan Tompkins is the man, and he is also a vocal coach, just like you. You should check his channel out on RUclips, pretty sick playthrough videos of his own songs from a bunch bands he's been in over the years. And you should react to "Tesseract - Of Matter (Live at Sphere Studios)" next, its an absolute must. Has Ashe O'Hara on vocals during his short stay with the band. Stellar stuff, and you'll love it even more, if you loved this.
Even though I love Daniel, I wish Beth listened to the live version of Of Matter with Ashe O'Hara. There just something about that album and the way Ashe completes the sound...
Also, yes, anything by Leprous.
I always preferred Dan, and his stage presence over Ashe, BUT, Altered State is my favorite album from them. So, this is a bit of a conundrum for me, lol. And yeah, that album is almost perfect with Ashe's vocals and the atmospheric music.
@@sicboi80 Ashe killed it in the studio, but the problem was replicating those tonnes of layers of vocals live. That's where Dan truly wins. He's just as consistent live as he is in studio. Both great vocalists in their own right though.
@@shreykundra7 100% agree.
@@shreykundra7 To be fair though, i'm sure they had the other vocal tracks layered in with their live show, or could do that at least. But Ashe just isn't that great live imo.
@@sicboi80 That's right, but Dan has very little backing vocals in his shows, and they're buried deep in the mix too. I remember Ashe used to have almost choir like mixes live, which kind of weren't my thing. It didn't help his harsh vocals were just not good either.
That little change in key after the bridge always makes me emotional. This song is amazing and Dan is one of my favourite vocalists.
LEPROUS - Contaminate Me (Live At Rockefeller Music Hall) Pleeeeease!!!!
or Slave for the sick instrumentals as well
I think Slave or Rewind would be better. I love Contaminate me and Ihsahn, don't get me wrong, but I think a song where Einar sings solo would fit better here
Slave or Flood from the same show would be amazing. Contaminate Me is basically fry screaming.
Or Acquired Taste ^^
Any Leprous really!
I saw these guys live in Sydney about six months ago, was by far the best gig I've ever been to, Daniel is perfect live.
I would be glad to see you reacting to Parabol/Parabola by Tool. Magnificent experience!
I agree! Would be amazing
YES!!
Honestly never mind Tesseract, go and check out Martin Grech’s solo stuff, i recommend the song open heart zoo as it will probably be right up your ally vocal wise. He wrote and recorded the album when he was 17, hes an unsung genius...
Beth! You should check out Tesseract again! They just put out a new single and Daniel Tompkins has gotten even better. You will hear new things from him!
I'm sure you've listened to Martin Grech since making this video but oh my god , he is epic. like proper epic.
The acoustic version of Open Heart Zoo... ♥️

TesseracT - Of Matter (Live at Sphere Studio)
Ugh, I love this performance so much!
I was waiting for you to react to this band, made me smile seeing your reaction (you can't fake that), they have another song Phoenix recorded in the same studio. Dan Tompkins is easily my favourite vocalist, he has alot of colabs out there aswell.
Daniel Tompkins is one of my favorite singers. he can put so much emotion in his singing. When i saw that you reacted to him i was kinda jumping in my chair. Please react to more songs from Tesseract! They are great.
DANIEL TOMPKINS - CONCEALING FATE PART 3: THE IMPOSSIBLE - TESSERACT - LIVE VOCAL
I loved Martin grech first album about fifteen or twenty years ago and then he just vanished...saw him live twice and his voice was amazing...always wondered what he was upto
Gojira - Global Warming (live at Silver Cord Studios)
when one of your favorite vocalists moves a vocal coach to tears in the first ten seconds lol
That's normal for a TesseracT song. You feel lots of things from their songs.
@@gregoryl.levitre9759 yeah I still can't get over Concealing Fate
I wished she listened to the Studio version. That's my Favorite.
I love this band. Glad to see you getting emotional and enjoying them.
For your own pleasure if you want a pure vocal experience, go and listen to D. Tompkins' recording of Allure with his other band Sky Harbor
The ending to his cover is unreal
Freaking awesome request my brother. What an amazing song. :)
