Last track felt more like them just going "Hey, we're back btw." This one feels a little more like the SOI we all know and love with a bit more focus on that "epic" feel they are so well known for. Fantastic track that makes me SOOO stoked for the upcoming album
Intensified Genocide was more of an expression on theyre melodic ability while this was just reminding everyone of they’re position of king in this genre
Before I get to the band, there’s a name that needs to be said over and over again. Francesco fucking Ferrini. An absolute genius with the orchestral webbings. 👏🏼 👏🏼 👏🏼 With that out of the way, I fucking love Shadow of Intent. So happy this band exists. Thanks for the great reaction GC!
@@Orxan7 not sure about previous albums, but he’s the one working on this new one. Edit: This isn’t to take credit away from the band or Chris (who is a genius himself) just to give credit to someone
Francesco being this good at what he does is almost unfair on the music industry. The mind of that guy is a big part of what made me fall in love with Fleshgod Apocalypse, his influence on this album is a big reason to love it and even the additional keyboards in Elegy made a big difference. Everything he touches turns to gold. Genuinely one of the most talented people in metal as a whole
Made my cold metal heart slightly warmer seeing you absolutely FEEL the "Limbs contorted - Anatomical morbid distortions" buildup/breakdown part, its so so good and only hits harder every listen. I took like a year break from metal music and this song in particular just blasted me so hard on revisiting for 2nd listen, I absolutely love it in its entirety. Keep hammering boy
Galactic! You really need to check out the new Be'lakor!!! Please please please! Amazing melodic death metal from Australia. You will UNDOUBTEDLY enjoy it. Please check out their new song Foothold!!!
Watching your reaction brought me soo much joy :3 That's what i felt like when i watched the video a few hours ago after a long long day at work. Absolutely can't wait for the new album!!!
Yesss... what a blast!! Epic, powerful, melodic and brutal. First drop was good, but this one is wooow! After Melancholy it is hard to bring new stuff that kicks ass, well... this drop kicks fu**ing ass! 🤘Yeah baby! 🤘
Their previous album was monstrous though? Melancholy saw a growth from them that this song and the previous single have expanded on and pushed even further.
Best Deathcore band that ever existed bro!!!!! Watching your reactions reminds me of hanging out with my best friend who passed. Keep doing what you are doing man!!!!!
I really like this one, definitely memorable, well structured, heavy, and epic. I have one complaint though, I wish that the verses had a riff behind them. The chorus' chord progression was followed through basically the whole song, so it got a little redundant for me. That being said, I still love this track, and Ben's vocals and the drums made up for the emptiness in the first verses. Great reaction, I'm definitely excited for their album!
I am redeemed. I was dead certain the last song was more like a playground for the drummer to showcase what they've got with the new guy. This was more of the SOI we know. There's a clear shift towards a more melodic death metal side, slowly losing the core. But man the vocals, the drums, the solo. The entire combo. So. Fucking. Awesome.
It's a top tier track for SOI and shows their maturity and progression... but I feel it's more about the mood I'm in for which song I prefer to listen to with both singles. The next release is likely to be much of the same with a diverse sound/mix as both these singles. I'm sold from hearing these two songs, album 'Elegy' is pre-ordered. Much like Orbit Culture with heavier/brutal vocals and fast paced drums (Mast of the World, Carvings) and then having other songs be more epic, melodic and symphonic (Flight of the Fireflies, A Sailor's Tale) I feel that way with Shadow of Intent. I loved both tracks for what they are and when I want to listen to them. I used OC as a reference since they are my fav band along with SOI and never seem to release a song I don't like. Another great and entertaining reaction!
Ben's vocals are just astronomically and disgustingly to heavy. It sounds like a bubbling pit of demonic souls and castrated crushed corpses drowning and fusing together in tar and molten lava spewing from his mouth. This is so goddam heavy and evil it officially has the right to replace Halloween this year. We celebrate and Trick or Treat on Shadow of Intent this year 💀
There still the Kings my brother imo 🤘😜 I do love Angelmaker but Shadow of intent are fucking awesome mate this song kicks ass I have to listen to it another 20 times to get my fix first comment from me mate but I've enjoyed your reactions 🤘 for a while man take it easy from Australia 🇦🇺
I know they're going for a less breakdown heavy sound right now. And I still loved the song. I'm just waiting for a track that'll have Ben doing pig squeals again
Please do a reaction video about Japanese band called "Geek of unzen gas fumes", they are so good and extreme and so difficult to buy their CDs or merches... couldn't found their songs on Apple music nor iTunes.
This song is what Malediction was to me when it dropped. This was beautiful.
I think malediction is more diverse vocally and instrumentally but I still really love this song
@@questioneverything5595 You're right.
Malediction is an absolute masterpiece. Their best song
@@noir371 you've heard the forsaken effigy right? Just woundering if you listened to all their songs before claiming malediction is the best
@@questioneverything5595 Those are their best 2 songs hands down.

Shadow of intent always delivers, never disappoints. Period.
🤘
@@nephilim1337 did you check their first album primordial ?

Fleshgod Apocalypse?
@@marcin17b15 yessir
Really? He is behind orchestral sound of Shadow Of Intent?! Didn't know that, thanks!

Shadow of intent at their worst is amazing and this was top notch. They’re in a genre of their own.
Getting Francesco Ferrini to do the orchestrations was the best decision they ever made
"It came out 50 minutes ago, I'm LATE" LOL dude exactly my feeling too.
Personal Track of the Year so far, for me 🔥🔥🔥
A bouquet of beer, with a hint of fucking awesomeness.
New Archspire too 🤘🏾🤘🏾
No shock factor, just pure epic raw energy!
I was watching for this reaction! Hell yeah! I already preordered the "ghostly" vinyl!
I have been playing that song on repeat since it came out
Same
The energy in this song is unreal. One of the deathcore tracks of the year for me 🤘
Not deathcore, there was no breakdown.
I think this song is enough to show any doubters to expect greatness again.
This song brings you out of depression!
Galactic! You really need to check out the new Be'lakor!!! Please please please! Amazing melodic death metal from Australia. You will UNDOUBTEDLY enjoy it. Please check out their new song Foothold!!!
Masters of the genre
Edit: loving the defamed Hoodia bro!

Hombre amo sus reacciones , que áspero !!! =)
Such an amazing track, great reaction.
Love your Kid of Darkness mask!
aside from Reclaimer, this is probably the best that SOI has brought out. Thoroughly enjoyed this
Agreed it was a complete masterpiece
Their previous album was monstrous though? Melancholy saw a growth from them that this song and the previous single have expanded on and pushed even further.
@@keeganyoung1369 Embracing Nocturnal Damnation is still my favorite and their best song imo but this is very damn close
Best Deathcore band that ever existed bro!!!!! Watching your reactions reminds me of hanging out with my best friend who passed. Keep doing what you are doing man!!!!!
Now that's a fucking introduction 💯🤟
I love seeing people get excited for new music.
I had the exact same “ooooh ( ͡͡ಠ ͜ʖ ͡͡ಠ)” reaction as you had with the intro. Such a nice intro!
Drone Corpse Aviator from Archspire! 🧡
Absolute banger. Cant wait for the album
Do the new archspire please
We blame the empire - pleeeaasse! Find them on RUclips. Melodic and brutal metalcore from Austria! For example: broken home, heart eater, updraft
Your energy and reaction is exactly how I felt, just fucking epic dude! This song hits in all the right ways
Great reaction
I’ve been checking every 5 minutes for your reaction, super stoked to see this!!!!
Loving the energy brother and I was moving the same way, even though I've listened to this song 20 times now! 😆
That hat bro...yes!
i told you !! wait to they next track
ALL the titties

So many bad ass songs lately. You could make videos all day! This one is an absolute BANGER by SOI. Highly recommend Obscura-Devoured Usurper!
I feel u energy listening the song bro ajjsjsjs i love it
KINGS
I am redeemed. I was dead certain the last song was more like a playground for the drummer to showcase what they've got with the new guy.
This was more of the SOI we know. There's a clear shift towards a more melodic death metal side, slowly losing the core.
But man the vocals, the drums, the solo. The entire combo. So. Fucking. Awesome.
They are now a symphonic death metal band.
I mean, the last song is literally called, "Intensified Genocide" so it has to be intense, you know?
To your first paragraph: wah??????
Hey new Rivers of Nihil might be another album of the year incredible
This has made it to my top 5 tracks of the year
I was waiting for your reaction! This song is a killer!
bro ur face reactions were spot on xDDDD
They never disappoint I swear🤘
I went crazy at work today. It was awesome! WoW!
My like is no. 666, lmfao :) This song is total DOPE 🤘
Been waiting for a reaction!! Another banger!! 🤘
Friends: Let's hear that killer growl...
Me: Chugs a can of bubly....

Couldn't agree with you more Galactic!!!!!!! Such a good track!!! 🔥🔥🔥
With all the influx of blackened death metal/deathcore lately, SOI just do it different....its on an epic level, atmospheric af.
Shadow are now a symphonic death metal band, they are done with deathcore.
This song is fucking awesome! Loved your reaction! 😁🤘🏻
Cheers, brethren
Totally agree about the prev album. Good, but i don't find myself continuing to listen to it. This was much more in the right direction.
They are now symphonic death metal
This song just, it hits those spots.
This song is just unreal like holy shit.
I was waiting for this !
Yooo dude where did you get that sick ass Defamed hoodie from????
It is SO MUCH BETTER than the first single, seems to come from a totally different band !
The last single was a lamb of god song
@@evergreatest4579 ow thanks for the heads up ! I actually don’t like Lamb of God so this makes sense now 😅
love this song!
I cried a little no lie
Luv de noo introo
This song is ridicolous. It's the best song they made.
Ben's vocals are just astronomically and disgustingly to heavy. It sounds like a bubbling pit of demonic souls and castrated crushed corpses drowning and fusing together in tar and molten lava spewing from his mouth.

this intro, i wish i could be this cool
This was freakin EPIC! Take a swig, I sure did!
Galactic Criminal love Shadow of Intent !! 😂

This track is pure fire!!
Waited for this one, but not too long :D
Called me f*cked but I could totally hear Rody Walker's epic fucking singing vocals on this song....
shadow of intent is my fav band in this era not a single bad song
that song was so cool!

So fuckin epic god I love them
They have 0 bad songs
I know they're going for a less breakdown heavy sound right now. And I still loved the song. I'm just waiting for a track that'll have Ben doing pig squeals again
