I'll give them another chance to be fair. I was wrong about BMTH and they became one of my favorites so comment the best lyric video to check out by Alesana!
Circle VII: Sins of the Lion is a beast song
Check Fits and Starts, actually the video was made with some clips and photos by the fans
You can check as well: Oh, How The Mighty Have Fallen or Fatal Optimist
This conversation is over
ANNABEL FOR SURE!
Probably one of the most underrated bands in the scene and one of the most talented.
Oh absolutely... It makes me sad I didn't get notified of this until just now, I'm hyped for this one! The Annabel trilogy is by far my favorite thing I've ever heard in music. Pure artwork and ingenuity. Nothing like it in music and that isn't even close to a bad thing infact its what makes it so great! Twists and turns around every corner. I can tell D-Gibby doesn't understand this is a story told over 3 albums each album based on 3 famous poems but each tell they're own story and together they line up and tell an in-depth story. I am sure he also is unaware each of the 3 albums have a short story written in the album cover and Mike Shawn the lead singer has also written a story that is also based on the Annable story.
PMA!
Wow....i think me and 6Anghellic7 might be the same person.......couldn't have said better. Concept and art is imbued in their albums.....love the flavor of the whole " the thesbian" album
@@blazing_pyro67 very well said
Theyre underrated and so amazing!
Underrated? They were probably the most popular post hardcore band Black in the day. Somewhere between 2007 and 2010
The whole emtiness album was poetic
You wont understand the story with only one song
I hope someone will request the whole album to him
Preach brother dude I’m seeing their emptiness tour in October literally gonna cry lmao
I saw them back in 2014. Got to meet Shawn after too. Sick show. My favorite was the drunk guy when they started playing this song screaming "THESPIAN" while his friend was holding him up 🤣
Literally one of the most underrated bands back then. This song is from a concept album its one big story.
Finally!! Its a story they wrote inspired by Edgar Allan Poe poem Annabel Lee. Nobody actually killed their girlfriend.
Crazy how we actually have to tell him it really didn’t happen it’s just a song
@@ryWyzdom Wait, he actually believes someone killed someone? lmao does he know what a story is?
When he says “gods turned his back on you etc” he’s basically saying that from the point of a demon, or from the point of darkness/madness that overtook the man character and led him to kill Annabel. The whole album this song is from is about a tortured artist who kills his lover and tries to find out who did it (looking for this guy), only to find it was him the whole time. Album call me with a few page written story that went with every song, concept was really awesome
and come to find out she wasnt dead but instead ended up killing him in the end.
While I totally understand your reaction to the video, I will say this was a terrible first intro to Alesana. Like this song is the halfway point if a concept album based loosely on an Edgar Allen Poe poem. So it's like starting a movie halfway through thats based on story you've likely never heard.
EXACTLY
I always said this even in middle school. Seriously underrated. So many feels going through the whole album.
Said so perfectly 👌👌👌
It was my first intro to them tbh. I think I had heard apology before and thought it was lame at first but then loved this song
I’m bout to become a patron to have D Gibbs react to the entire The Emptiness album boiii
A place where the sun is silent
@@ThisisStephennn YES I'd rather listen to him do that one because I feel it would be the easiest for him to understand as well as others who've not listened to Alesana before. Just being that its based on Dante's Inferno and pretty much everyone knows exactly what Dante's Inferno is about on even if they've never read it or played the video game.
I love all 3 albums but The Emptyness is my least favorite but I can't choose which of A Place Where the Sun is Silent or Confessions is my favorite they are both so good and full of twists and turns! Confessions is probably my favorite to just let play and not think on when I listen to it every time I listen but if I've got a.p.w.t.s.i.s. on I am listening to every word and thinking and following along the entire time, I've learned I can't even drive well its playing 😆
YES!
@@blazing_pyro67 I thought the Emptiness was based on Edgar Allen Poe's literature and his themes?
@@hotrodjmanofficial448 It is based off of the poem Annabel Lee by Edger Alan Poe thus the reason for the Annabel in the trilogy :) when I say my least favorite I still listen to all three albums at least twice a month
You need to more research on the song before calling it trash .. I love your videos but come on man you can’t call it trash when you don’t even know the story behind any of it.
Alesana are storytellers, you have to listen to their albums, especially The Emptiness, from the beginning to end to really understand the story and what is happening. It’s even better if you know the stories the albums are inspired by, and that’s coming from a huge literature nerd.
The album this song comes from is part one of a 3 part story so that's why it doesn't make sense until you listened to all 3 albums
Plus he doesn't know that they wrote a book as well.
Yes! Please do more of Alesana!!!
The whole "look in the mirror and ask yourself what's good about this music, it's not good" statement is something you need to be careful with. Completely ignorant statement because you really know nothing about this band and a little research alone would probably give you an appreciation. As far as story telling in music goes, this is top tier
Yeah, that statement was stupid. And it's not even about not knowing the story, most of Alesana's song are objectively good (there are of course some meh songs). He didn't like the group, and that's ok, but that's an opinion, not a fact.
Making fun of the story when it's one of the most famous short stories of all time by one of the most famous authors. Small minded reaction for sure.
@@h23erst923 Hence the research, he'd probably backtrack if he knew
Lol he definitely is closed minded and ignorant for sure. He doesn’t have to like the song but that doesn’t mean he has to be a prick and say we have to “look in the mirror” because we happen to like it.
Lol he definitely is closed minded and ignorant for sure. He doesn’t have to like the song but that doesn’t mean he has to be a prick and say we have to “look in the mirror” because we happen to like it.
Alesana's concept is a story that was over 3 albums, the part where is saying that the thespian's prayers fall on deaf ears, and heavens gates are shut is about him killing his girlfriend. you should check out Ambrosia
Damn, finally somebody explained it after this song came out for 10 years
It’s also funny cause he doesn’t know tho whole story since he is listening to one song and 3 albums are the story lol still love for ya d gibby
Alesana is an amazing band, very underrated band. They are amazing visual story tellers. The emptiness is inspired by Edgar Alan Poe
Very underrated. The most humble band I've met. Always put on banger shows
This entire album, that this song is from, follows Edgar Allen Poe's poems.
Alesana is what got me into harder rock music "congratulations I hate you" hits different
Try this with your eyes closes, on frail wings and where myth fades or my 3 favorite albums for sure
Alesana got me into softer metal music. They are so dope. Alesana is one of those bands that transends their genre through raw talent and artistry like carach angren does for blackmetal. (Im one of those insufferable slam/beatdown/brutal deathcore kids)
Where myth fades to to legend & the emptiness are my favorite relaxing depressed love song 🤘
It is funny as you here something about God you instantly miss the point of the entire song come on man you need to start doing more research into bands or the songs
React to Alesana- Fatal optimist,Fatima rusalka,Ambrosia pleeeeaase this band is so f*cking good!!
Highly disagree about them being trash. You're being way too hard on the lyrics and video. its apart of a concept album. I normally love your videos but you dropped the ball on this one IMO.
This guy made the biggest mistake of his life by calling Alesana trash
EXACTLY
It sounds like you completely missed the point of the song and the video. This is one song apart of a who’ll concept album.
Gibby just isn’t a scene kid he can’t appreciate the good raw stuff lol it’s cool no biggie
Basically the screamer represents the inner darkness of the artist (the singer) who belives his love was killed by someone called the Thespian. The entire Annabel story is complicated. You really should look into it, it's super interesting.
And the band has gone on record for being Christian friendly as well.
Cool?
@@baronroaster404 I was responding to Gibby saying that they were atheist. May be true for some on a personal level, but I wanted to clarify for him.
The best thing about this video is that they had full creativity for this. The creativity of dennis and shawn is underrated
Alesana is one of the most well written and poetic bands out there. They were so huge in the scene for years but unfortunately they fizzled out but have such a huge dedicated fanbase because they gave us so much with a 3 part concept album and book.
Fun fact: The clean singer also did the cleans for "Hey There Mr. Brooks" by Asking Alexandria on their first album
Hope this helps a little bit with the understanding. This album particularly revolves around an artist who in a fit of rage killed his girlfriend. The full album follows the artists slide into madness as he believes that the girl named annabel has come back to haunt him. The album ends with him taking his life in hopes that it will atone for what he did. Well we know he killed himself but in his head annabel actually killed him in revenge. This band has an entire discography surrounding the story of annabel known as the annabel trilogy.
Honestly like most people have said, you can’t really start in the middle of an Alesana album. When I saw this I checked to see if it was the first song by them you had because it was and odd first choice. When going in line with the story, the song is great. If you’re going to do this album, and I think you should and would appreciate the artistic nature of it, you should start from the beginning with “The curse of the virgin canvas”. Do lyric videos so you can follow the story, and maybe think of doing the whole album in order, one song a day. Make a series out of it. I think you would really like it. Love your videos man and I hope I’m right and you enjoy this band.
Their albums all tell stories.
This album tells the story of a character named "The Artist" who wakes up to find the love of his life "Annabel" dead.
This song is the Artist dealing with losing his love, only to be confronted by "The Thespian" who reveals he murdered her, and tells the Artist "God's turned his back on you"
You need to listen to every song from every album starting from the first. Each album tells a story in the order of the songs. I love this band for how detailed they are. Trust me, you won't be disappointed by listening to everything in order, it will all make sense and you will realize how good of story tellers they are. My favorite song by them is "Annabelle". You won't be disappointed I promise!
He hates the screams tho. And that music video was super weird. Not to mention the blackface the guy was wearing. That shit hasn’t aged well
Alesana its finally in tour channel 🖤🖤🖤 nice video!!!
Alesana: Endings Without Stories
I love you’re reactions my man, you are a guy with a lot of energy and I’ve been supporting you since the beginning, but I have to disagree this time with you, I know that is your opinion but you have to know the story behind this song before calling it trash. Alesana is a band that make story’s in their albums, and If you don’t follow that story’s you won’t understand what’s happening, so I recommend you to give alesna another opportunity and follow all the story because they have great songs and it’s pretty interesting, but also you can react to the songs i mentioned in the other comment without paying attention to the lyric and without watching the video so you can only guide by the entire music, I know you will like better. I hope you have a great day and a big hug to you and your wife. Much love from Mexico. ❤️
Same With bands like Famous Last Words, or Ice Nine Kills a lot of their songs are from concept albums which tell an entire story, in a dramatic, theatrical way.
Alesana - apology
React to some first album From First To Last!
Yesssss !!
You really have to listen to the whole emptiness album to get the whole story! This is why I LOVE ALESANA! All of they’re albums tell amazing stories!!!
Alesana ‘congratulations I hate you’ it’s a banger!
Stop taking songs and videos so literally lol, most of the time it's a story being told.
Here's the thing, with The Thespian, you're coming into a story half way through, it's like the 6th song on the album and it's a story start to finish
Man I remembering discovering the live show of these guys first and fell in love back in the day
Definitely gonna need more reactions for this band
The prayer falls upon deaths ears part is from the thespians pov. It makes more sense if you look into the concept of the record. Great observation though!
My favorite album of all time. You have to listen to it in order to really get the story. So excited to see you react to Alesana.
Some bands you react to have a whole story/plot going with their albums so if you just jump right in the middle obviously it's going to be difficult to understand the videos context especially if you're new to the band. That's basically expected.
"She gone, brother"
Got me good.. lol
The irony of him being anti-lgbt yet listens to rock music, arguably one of the most accepting genres in the industry
I’VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS!! MORE ALESANA PLEASE!!!
Recently found this channel and I’m in love
The emptiness is a fantastic concept album. Especially if you follow the story lyrically.
I’m enjoying your funny reactions about the bands bro, also fan of alesana and many more.
Keep it up!
I finally found my way back to this song.. haven't watched the video yet but im excited for your reaction lmao.
That's why there's millions of artists something for everyone. Just cause we like it doesn't mean you have to. You gave it a shot and that's all you can do.
To be scared by an owl is the best song off of that album. Give them another shot
Great group, underrated, and pretty cool they made a story album like they did with this.
That said they aren’t for everyone and that’s alright lol
One of my favourite songs of my emo life!
this is the most underrated band back then and your channel is the most underrated reaction channel. i love your videos man keep it up
I love your reaction 😂😂
Alesana is one of my favorite bands been listening to them since I was 17 I'm 30 now 🤣
Your reaction to this is hilarious 😂
I can’t wait for this Ad to end so I can see this lmao
This is a concept that you have to listen to all 3 albums.
You really don't.
They’re kind of a guilty pleasure for me. If they didn’t have the screams I would still love them hornstly
Ahh freshman year of high school
Ohhhh shit here we go!!!
Oh my if only to be in the position of experiencing Alesana for the first time again...
I absolutely LOVE alesana!!!
they are such a solid band. met Shawn at warped years ago such a cool guy. they were one of the first bands my friend recommended to me back in like 2010
The Emptiness is my personal favorite album by them.
mine too but i feel like confessions is pretty under rated
Hmm...the song and video for Seduction might be more in your ally tbh. Give em another chance!
Nobody gone hate you got you’re opinion we all got ours . Have a bless day .
Please, please, PLEASE react to a Get Scared song! (Not Sarcasm; maybe something lesser known like Take A Bow)
SUFFER
We need more from Alesana
this is a year late. but this whole album is about an artist who grew mad from the darkness of his art. he fabricates a reality where he wakes up to his wife slain. and he searches for the murderer. slowly learning that the dark figure and he are the same person... the twist at the end of album is that the artist didnt murder his lover but slowly was becoming that... and as she tries her best to save him. she ultimately is forced to kill him
the most underrated band i always love alesana their song are all came from poem
Yess!!! That’s my band!!!
I absolutely love Alesana
Dennis is the BEST screamo singer of all time
Check out "skylines" by Disruption. It's up your alley. Promise ya! Love your reactions too!
React to Behemoth, Deicide, Slayer, Cannibal Corpse, Immortal, Emperor, Kreator and Torture Squad and you will see that Alesana, and all the metalcore scene, is just a Disney channel version of metal.
👍🏻😂😂
Fu
I think you’d might like the story. Bc there’s a major plot twist at the song Annabel.
Also in English class we were supposed to write a essay about a story we like and why. And explain it.
And I legit never wrote so much because I got permission to write about alesana the emptiness, a place where the sun is silent,
And it was great tbh.
If I recall correctly the third album to the story was out and yeah, that bitch was 4 pages long
Gibby looks 100% like the tier 1 skin in warzone season 5. Just search it and you will get what I mean, and also the sunglasses 😂😎
👇
Please react to hated from Beartooth. Or blackout from to the rats and wolves. Love your vids 😎
He actually never killed his Girlfriend... lol
Getting strong Famous Last Words vibes from this song/band.
NICE REACTION!
you have to listen Alesana's Ambrosia or Annabel
Oh my highschool days
Alesana…wow. My brother was actually in the band prior to this song and album. He was in their first two albums. Let’s just say I’m glad he left haha. I will say they are the nicest dudes you’ll ever meet though. Even were in his weddings a few years back. They need the Lord Jesus though lol. Praying for them all the time.
OLD 2010 HIGH SCHOOL
Another thing who watches d gibby and goes man this is the song to introduce him to alesana lol so many better songs to start with you gotta learn to read people and what song would be best to start someone with them
Appreciate the realness haha
You might enjoy bush’s new song “quicksand” on your own time btw 🤘🏼
idk if you know this, but the whole album was Edgar Allen Poe poetry turned into music. It's just poetry turned into a album
Black veil bride type of voice? You clearly havent listened that well to BVB and probably this band lmao
Also I have to add if you love alesana which I do you have to know those screams are not for everybody they aren’t your everyday same old metalcore screaming
sua reação foi muito boa mano! hahahhaa
I just have to say this isn't about a man who killed his gf, the story which spans the whole album is about a man the "sketch artist" who wakes up and finds his gf dead in bed next to him. he buries her in the basement and searches for her killer... now at one point in an earlier song he then goes and comes across a bar where everyone's happy and having a good time, he then decides that if he can't be happy then no one can, and murders them. H e doesn't start out a murderer, but the loss of his girlfriend does makes him one. in this song as he is losing his mind he finds the killer of his gf "the thespian" who taunts him and escapes before he can get his revenge. by the end of the album the artist tracks down the thespian and they fight, the artist gets stabbed and as he's falling to his knees dying the thespian tells him to look behind him, he then hears his gf's voice and wakes up... turns out he was growing dark, his gf was scared of him and so to save herself she killed him and all of this journey was in his mind as he died.
Everyone in the band has ‘PMA’ tattooed on them. It means ‘positive mental attitude’
Huge fan of that band since freshman year of high school but I can respect the opinion especially on the basis of it can be argued that they are playing the characters they created for the albums entire story.
