Please remember, DeathCORE is a streamlined version of it's more evolved, refined and nuanced predecessor DeathMETAL. Death Metal vocals were considered more of a percussive implementation of vocals that was necessitated by complex and busy nature of death metal music. Especially as it evolved and became super complex in the late 90's with bands like Atheist, Death, Cynic and Gorguts. DeathCORE is considered by metal peers, socialites and critics to be simplified death metal for lets say's, lets developed and refined listeners. Especially youngers listeners who did not live throught this sort of evolution of the genre. One thing is for sure, you have picked up one the high use of production layering and 'tricks" as you listen to the music. This considered a 'pernicious sin" in a genre that was built on the idea of constantly evolving craft competence. Try not to give this genre too much more attention as it mostly considered undignified and childish by metal and music critics alike because of its studio production antics. I enjoy both your channels and will keep doing so! NOTE: DeathCORE bands have been chastised and ridiculed for their use backing tracks and ghostwriters - another unforgiveable transgression with the metal genre as a whole.
@@blackstarzful yep I’m so sad that they no longer come to the UK in February 😞😭 I was so looking forward to hear the “slaughtered demon pig breathing out it’s last breath” outro live.
As a metal fan, I absolutely love watching people like rappers and such seeing this and being straight up scared lmao, like, it's just a song, you're not possessed now 😂 but it's so entertaining to hear people go like "I'm scared" lol lol, meanwhile Will is one of the kindest and most well mannered guy I've ever seen, he would hold his gran's yarn while she crotches and listen to her life stories. Scratch that, he would do that for anyone's grans, and listen truly interested, and ask them to teach him how to crotchet and have genuine fun at it, leaving the grannies feeling so happy and less lonely. And I love that about him almost as much as I love his voice, and that's only cause I fucking absolutely love his voice just so much, not at all because I downplay his wholesomeness!
@@zombiegunner3arc82 and before that was suicide silence with the black crown, I think was the Punk Rock MBA channel explained the 3 waves of deathcore with them
@@igor.meh.design big fan of Finn. Our Endless War by Whitechapel, The Black Crown and even Attack Attack! & Doom by JFAC were also big for the genres, in their own ways
There is some layering on the track, but Will also has an ability to sound, sort of layered, which makes it seem even more layered than it is. It's kind of hard to pick out when he's doing it but it's the like gargling (almost) sound. He has incredible tongue placement and knows how to use the back of his tongue in his throat to make an echo.
If you roll your tongue to one side while doing the highs you can make the same sound. I think he pushes his against his teeth and creates a tunnel though.
I can vouch that their vocalist can hit all of those tones perfectly live. Probably one of the best live performances I’ve witnessed so far in my life.
Will Ramos posted video a few days ago of him doing a run through of the song in the studio, basically what he sounds like live, it is worth a listen, he is otherworldly! And those drums!
Lots of cool stuff going on with Will's vocals. There is some doubling in post, but I don't think he's using any sort of pitch shifting on the lows. Usually lows are produced by the false folds vibrating instead of the true ones, similar to clearing your throat. The false folds are responsible for subharmonics in kargyraa throat singing, oktavism, etc., so there are some similarities. The lower timbre comes from opening the vocal tract wide and placing the resonance further back (Alex Terrible has some thunderous lows because his vocal tract is humongous). The opposite is true for the highs, which place the resonance as forward as possible and have a narrower vocal tract. Will sounds like he's using "fry screams" for his highs, as well, which are when you close the vocal folds beyond the point where modal voice is produced but leave enough slack for you to push air through, creating the more distorted sound. There's a sweet spot where it's not enough to strain or cause pain, but it takes a lot of practice to find. I have years of classical training, but I've found that deathcore vocalists (this genre) are pretty much as agile and athletic with their voices as opera singers.
The highs may well (especially the ones that almost sound pitched) also come from a technique where vocalists find the break in their falsetto and push past it to get an almost pterodactyl sounding noise.
Your eyes when he said Azrael the first time, I honestly think each time he says Azrael in this song it hits much different than the rest, it stands out the way he screams/sings it! Not sure why but every time I hear that Azrael I get pumped up and ready for a show and a pit ha!!!
I can confirmed that the recording is Triple Tracked (he has himself backed in other false chord ranges, high, mid, low), I've seen another video with the isolated vocal tracks. He absolutely has the full upper and lower range as I've seen his live performances.
There's definitely layering to the production but every sound that is produced is from Will himself. No lowering of octaves or anything. But of course during production they add some layers to get some fuller moments. They have a live concert of this ep release and it's cool to see him do this stuff live. He's very impressive.
Definitely vocal layering for certain parts however, they're both his vocal layers lol. . . You have to watch him live to see him single layer it and he absolutely nails it.
My reaction was very similar to yours With a few more listens though I was able to really wrap my head around everything that's happening and it is all wonderfully constructed however this is an intense amount of sound. And at a few times it seems to all wash together into a wall of sound that is nearly indecipherable. But I bet your reaction after a few more playthroughs would be a bit different. Also this band is a part of the subgenre of metal known as Death Core, most bands withing the genre have a central theme that revolves around death.
Well said, Lorna Shore usually deals in the sub sub genre (I guess that’s a thing) called “Blackened Deathcore” which is a hybrid of both Black Metal and Deathcore
I absolutely love watching the classically trained musicians reacting to this and specifically watching for them starting to headbang. No discredit to them, but its always fascinating to see them default to trying to predict the beats in a normal time signature, but missing entirely as the world of metal just puts everything they know on its head. It's awesome to see these musical geniuses finally start to see the solid artistic foundation metal is built on, but taken to the extreme which always keeps them on their toes.
So with your question about an octaver on the mix, what a lot of band do is they do a lot of recordings and just put them on top of each other, so maybe he in the chorus is doing his lows and in the mix he is doing a little sing or harmonies and they just mix it... ALSO about changing from high to low, check out the Live video they have, they recorded a show in the House of Independents...
In relation to using effects on his vocals, those are actually entirely his own sounds minus a few effects anyone would commonly find in a studio such as delays and reverbs. In terms of an octave shifter to get his voice that gutteral low, nope thats entirely him. Saw them live and he sounded just as good as on this video Will is a powerhouse🤘🤘
You should check out their EP release live performance, it’s almost an hour but they start off with this song. I’d love to see your reaction to that because Will sounds almost exactly the same live, it’s crazy
There are three songs on the EP - I think this one was meant to be especially heavy. There are live videos of the band, including a pro-shot video by Revolver of their EP-release party, if you would like to see what Will sounds like without the layering. Glad this video was unblocked!
I really love your reactions because you are honest and genuine in giving them, I love that you appreciate all kinds of art and are interested in knowing more. greetings from Argentina :)
This song was done in one take and that is all Will's voice. Will is an absolute beast and again you hear that double harmonic technique that you hear in Slaughter. He's using many of those sounds especially that double snarl at the end to position his throat to hit that final low. Definitely listen to one of the top quality live videos of this song and you can hear that there is no effect production on his voice in the way you were suggesting.
It was NOT done in one take. Everyone keeps saying this after watching that recent interview Will did. He did the snarling part at the end in one take. He clearly says this. Go back and listen to the interview again.
I really love how you do your videos. You seem so authentic in the sense you don't over do your reactions. Very professional and you sir have a big new fan!!
The lead singer did a one take vocal recording and that will bring a lot of clarity to this version of the song. Will Ramos To the hellfire one take vocal recording
Well done, Sir. This music must be a million light-years away from your comfort zone. By the way, there is A LOT of vocal-layering going on, but it's always the singer doubling himself not an effect. Greetings from Germany. ... and I subscribed
Will puts out his own vocal covers of songs on his RUclips . The audio mix there is much more dry and really shows the true sound and texture of his vocals .. That being said he dose this song live and sounds insanely consistent .
I have enjoyed this band for awhile now and I could not agree with you more about the symphonic backing tracks. I would love to hear the band isolated alone. It was a good reaction, sir...
I love how music teachers and vocal coach's especially classically trained ones, appreciate the hell out of this type of harsh vocals. I listen to mostly metalcore but I do like lorna shore. Will Ramos is at the very top of what he does and I'm drawn to his vocals for some reason. I don't listen to any other blackened death metal besides these guys. Not to mention my man on the drums, he must have quads and calf muscles the size of Hercules himself. They are all sooo talented beyond what words can explain
is sounds exactly the same live, you should check out their live performance of this song also that zombie gremlin sound at the end he did in 1 take..will is a beast
Kardavox academy is the best for analyzing this kind of vocal style! Would also love to see you check out baba yaga and zavali ebalo from slaughter to prevail
I know I'm late to this one. A couple of things if no one has already said. Lorna Shore, a charactor from Batman. Vocal layering for the video, yes at times I think we can all agree. He has put out another video of just him with the music mixed in at his house. You can hear the pure vocals of the song and they arel very impressive. It took Austin Archeys drumming and a number of tries to get me into this. But now that I'm in..... WOW....
I'm sure someone has already pointed it out but just to be sure, Will Ramos dropped a one take vocal performance of this one. It sounds less 'muddy' because there is a lot less audio production on that recording.
This is the first video I've seen where someone has truly appreciated and doubled back for that scream after "after you pass through the fucking gate". I don't think this band will ever leave my top 10 across ALL genres
lol! That song is most definitely a wall of sound which is what the band was going for. First song with a new singer and they wanted to just blast away to show what the new band is doing.
It just layered vocals, man. Will is an absolute beast of a vocalist. There's no octave work done in post. That being exposed would RUIN a band like this if there was. They know better. They just picked the right man for the job.
There’s now a one take vocal play through of this on wills channel, it’s mind blowing that he can actually make these sounds and almost double layered sounding sections himself. Obviously in the released track there probably is layering to make it sound better, but he shows in the video that he can actually do it himself which is cool, and switch between lows and highs and hold the long notes etc, it’s really cool
I love how you have grown on metal, at first a bit reserved but more and more you see the absolute skill ALOT of these bands posesses, even if it is not the style you like, you do not dismiss it becuase you might not like it! Big cudos to you!
My advice is for you to check out William Ramos (The lead singer) vocal playthrough for To the hellfire or Of the abyss, where you can hear the vocals clean, live and isolated.
Yo as an update he has a full cut cover on his RUclips channel now TheWillRamos. Would be great exploring what you can see better in a clear studio setting.
I love watching reactions to my favorite music... Will Ramos is my new favorite singer.. definitely layered in the song but comes all from that little dude. Lorna Shore's Gamechanger fr. \
it was done with layering. BUT you should really listen to his live performance that is up by now. The scary thing is, he quite literally sounds exactly the same.
It's as simple as vocal layering, some parts have lows and highs together to add flavour to the song. No octave like effects etc. There would just be the usual suspects like delay, reverb, compression etc. as you'd normally find.
"There it is, you have a complete song..."
Me knowing there's 45 seconds of filth coming...😎
This comment right here 😂 if I didn't see it I was gonna type it 😂🤣
I love watching these reaction videos just to see peoples reactions to the last minute of the song. It is always hilarious
Literally was like 😈😈😈😈
The filithiest filth of them all incoming 😏
That's really the only part I'm here for. That "ah the e-" *shock and disgust* moment
It's really entertaining to see vocal coaches and classically trained people taking on the giants of deathcore and extreme music!
And they appreciate it to. most others don't.
All thanks to youtube.......
Now if only we can get him to react to Will's one take vocal performance of this

There was zero reason to put that in the song as far as I'm concerned. There was nothing gained.

This, please watch his one-take. I'm waiting for a vocal coach to watch it.

These guys just shifted the genre with a 3 song EP
Totally.
Deathcore always does this every few years. In my opinion, the last one was Infant Annihilator's The Palpable Leprosy
Its not all new grounds, its Epic themed guitar, mixed with purity of deathcore. Many bands do this style but lorna shore is popular.

The orchestra is much more prevalent in the other two tracks on the album. The whole EP is a masterpiece.
I highly recommend watching Trevor Teichert's one-take vocal cover of this song. You'll see how how his mouth shapes the sounds and it's MESMERIZING.
I was blown away by his cover. Yes mesmerizing is a good description
hell yess best cover of the year !
Will goes from high to a low extremely fast in the breakdown of the song "Of The Abyss" I love it!
*sees title*
This is where the fun begins

Having seen their new song Sun//Eater performed live, can confirm the man can dig DEEP.

The big orchestral stuff happens in And I Return to Nothingness. And the wall of sound is a big thing that they do often

There is vocal layering throughout the track. However each layer has not had any pitch shifting or significant altering.
Watch the live recording.

check out "Of The Abyss" live , so amazing. now this song has an orchestra to it. wont be disappointed!

Ne Obliviscaris - And Plague Flowers The Kaleidoscope. its a bit long like 17 min, but its epic!!!!
There's the one take vocal playthrough. You may wanna check it out
Your little cheetah thing, yeah I choked on coffee laughing
Will Ramos just did a one take cover of this song. You should check it out, very impressive!
Great reaction
They just dropped another Sun//Eater you gotta check it out
You should check out his 1 take vocal cover of this to actually answer your questions about his screams
it was done with layering. BUT you should really listen to his live performance that is up by now. The scary thing is, he quite literally sounds exactly the same.
It's as simple as vocal layering, some parts have lows and highs together to add flavour to the song. No octave like effects etc. There would just be the usual suspects like delay, reverb, compression etc. as you'd normally find.
look at the mixing on this band, he uses reaper + a million plugins ;) kudos... great mix
will go check after, but if you havent yet, react to will ramos one take of this song.. really shows you the power of his voice. great reaction
You may be interested in the one take vocal playthrough they put out a few days ago.
no layering, doubles, just straight from his mouth.
