One of the most underrated Bands ever.
One of the best Bands ever! *
always some ass has to say that to a video
@@teamEP789 I mean they are pretty underrated
They have pretty good rating, idk where is the underrated
they finally get some attention two years later xD
this band is the best thing that happened to metal in past 20 years
Hell yea! What a great Band
They're epic in every sense.
But Gloryhammer is right up there with them.
For me is Primal Fear! But also love Unleach The Archers too
I usually like old school shit like thrash metal, but I think this kind of music is the future of metal. They dont try to make somethink even more brutal, faster ect. They try something new.
lol
Brittney Hayes vocals are out of this world. She's taking power metal to new heights with her voice.
Only my voice etc is out of this world -- she has a good powerful voice, but out of this world is an obvious exaggeration!
This is one of the many songs / lyrics secretly written about me The Queen / The Matriarch etc -- I am soon to have the total control in the new totaIitrn worId!
Most Nightwish / CoF / The Dark Element lyrics are also about me -- the songs Infinity and Taking Chances and Dark Horse and God Is A 'Woman' and I Am Not A Woman, I'm A God etc and The Bee (and the album Prism and the album Queen of Time etc) and most videos and songs sung by Gaga are also about me, as are most newer lyrics created over the past decade, as the one running the agency that has the world power that created all these industries and all tech made everything about me!
Got pulled over by a cop checking seatbelts yesterday, had my 4 windows down blasting this. He waves and acknowledge my music choice and when he heard Hayes powerful voice...he just held me back 10 seconds to ask what band it was. Pretty awesome!!!!
thats fucking epic man!!
It's true, I was there, I was the stereo and that cop grew up to be Abraham Lincoln.
@@ChaingunCassidy I was there! I drank beer, and mead, and it flowed over my mustache but didn't go into my mouth!

Topping the Menzoberranzan billboards since 1324
Drizzt for president!
thats great!!
Epic!
This is what happens when Iron Maiden, Helloween, and Judas Priest have a love child, only the singer is a female version of Rob Halford. And by god it's beautiful.
I feel theres some Dio blood in there too.
Dio's the crazy uncle. Lol
Bah gawd
I hear def Helloween at points (and mostly in their entire)
You forgot Nightwish and/or Epica
All hail Brittney Slayes, The Matriarch of Mighty Metal !
I'm partial to Jennifer Haben being the Matriarch of Mighty Metal but I will concede.
She can melt your ears with her music!
I'd venture to say she shares that title with Marta Gabriel of Crystal Viper. I salute any female power metal singer who wants to sound more like Dio than Tarja.
For me that would be alissa form arch enemy she has amazing growls and angelic cleans plus live she has unrivalled stage presence
@@im_the_fire_ice8714 She's not even the best clean/growl singer but because she is hot and beautiful you mentioned her. Typical male thinking.
This band is beyond phenomenal.
This album is going to be fxcking legendary.
Wish they'd make music videos for this entire album, I'd settle for animated. Story of an immortal warrior under service of The Matriarch. Ten Thousand Against One would be especially appetizing to watch.
Someone needs to edit the scenes of Hella fighting in Asgard from "Thor: Dark World" to this music.

@@FrozenMermaid666 lol
I know everyone usually listens to Awakening or Tonight We Ride as their "intro to UtA" but this one is my personal favorite, and honestly the one I'd recommend to anyone just getting into the band.

God DAMN.
Every time one of their songs hits me for the first time, it's like a beautiful punch to the face.
God DAMN.
I love her voice and her battle wailing just hits me in my heart and just feels amazing
My wall has a new head-sized hole in it.
Cpt. Dandilion underrated af comment xD
Seriously, that made my fucking night, haha
Love this comment
Hahahahaha
Where's my horse, sword and armor? I must feast on the blood of my enemies!!.. also,. has anybody seen my falcon?
great comment!
That 6 pack ain't gonna save you from this baby. Lol
Crush your enemies.
See them driven before you.
And hear the lamentations of their women.
I took your horse, sword and armor. No riding for you whilst your drunk. As for your falcon, that's on you. I haven't seen her in days.
sorry, my wolf ate it. dont you mind if i buy you a new one?
This song has me hyped for this album to the tenth degree!! I wasn't completely sold by "Cleanse the Bloodlines," it's still a great song but it lacked the upbeat energy that the Time Stands Still Album had, but thankfully this song has it in spades! READY THE ARCHERS!!!! LONG LIVE METAL!!! FOLLOW ME TO APEX HYPE!!!
There is a time when a band hits that perfect point in their trajectory where they still have the passion and raw energy of youth and are also building maturity in their craft... and this is the result. Tremendous album.
My god! Listen to the drumming! Yes Britney amazing!but Scott’s drumming! Fucking amazing! Britney and Scott totally prove a relationship and music can survive! The way they interact with each other is breath taking! This band was pretty much formed because of this dedication! All you married people take note of this, a “power couple!”
I have no idea what people are talking about when they say the cleanse the bloodlines isn't upbeat enough. It doesn't need to be. That not the point of the song. Cleanse the blood lines is epic, grand, and a little bit sad. That the point of the song and it's amazing. The Matriarch is about an insanely powerful ruler and so the song is full of power, energy, and intensity. You all are doing amazing. Don't listen to these people talking shit on cleanse the bloodlines. If you follow their advice you'll end up like every other power metal band that fell into the trap of making all of their songs sound the same. TBH I wouldn't classify y'all as strictly power metal. If anything y'all are a combo of death metal and power metal. I can hear a lot of influences from a lot of different genres. Like CCN said a while back the future of metal is fusion metal and I think UTA and Æther Realm are a perfect example of that. I can't wait for my preorder to come in. Love y'all. Keep up the great work.
Brutal Progeny hit the nail on the head. couldn't have said it any better myself.
Brutal Progeny its melodic death metal \m/
Whatever it is, it's metal and this argument totally deserves that thumb up!
I very rarely listen to power metal apart from the odd ensiferum song. Too often the instrumentals as well as the whole structure of the song falls into cringe worthy cliches in this genre. I mostly listen to death/groove/prog and variations within that, and if you told me about this awesome band from canada with a female vocalist I'd give you an arrogant smirk.
However throughout this whole album the guitarists & drummer are playing their brains out and the vocals (apart from the growls imo) work so well over it.
Cleanse The Bloodlines is what got me to buy Apex!
Wearing my UTA t-shirt with the biggest smile on my face, this song rocks!!!
I feel unleashed
eric archer but are you an archer?
indubitably
eric archer *protects his knees from arrows*
H311hunt3r 2011 called. It wants its meme back.
Monfe Tell 2011 that it's mine now.
Wow so powerful. I'm happy I've found this band
Brittney Slayed me! She's the best female power metal vocalist on the world. She's female Daniel Heiman! This is one of my favorite bands! And this is amazing song!
Fuckin' right, Daniel's performance on A Flame to the Ground Beneath is phenomenal.
+Guzwar Yeah mate. You know what is good :) Daniel and Brittney are my favorite singers! Also Brittney said in one interview that Daniel is some kind of idol to her, because of his power when he sings. Since then I like her even more :)
@@ivanpesic4626 that makes two of us, I thought nobody knew about Lost Horizon :/
My cat loves this band!
I'm from Alberta Canada so happy that we have this caliber of Metal music in Canada I love this band I really hope you guys will come and play in Alberta sometime I would love to see them live keep rocking you are awesome 😊
Yes Bismarck I agree my god UTA is insane god tier rock PLEASE COME TO ALBERTA AND PLAY PLEASE 😈😈😈😈
her vocals are effortless..
This song was recommended to me this morning, and I unintentionally clicked on it. Thank you tiredness, I have a new band I like.
Garrett Carroll *love. One does not simply like UTA.
I can't possibly express how awesome it is to hear this song live. If you ever get a chance to catch one of their shows, do NOT pass it up!
excellent tune, best so far of the album
My fav for ever and ever
Oh the gods of power and heavy metal are once again turning their smiles to Unleash the Archers! Hitting hard and proud, their newest album "Apex" is doing nothing but releasing a torrent of amazing hype. I was already dead set upon hearing "Cleanse the Bloodlines"and I absolutely can't wait for the rest of the album.
The Matriarch works for so many ways, from the badass rhythm guitar build up and iconic U.T.A. style in your face vocals, to the way the lyrics really set a great foreshadowing and stage for this evil character within the story. (Honestly, just how the way the lines are spoken in a perspective of some another foretelling you of how dangerous the "Matriarch" is simply cool shit).
Keep it up guys! Definitely pre-ordering this work without a doubt.
It's a good song, but to me its not a GOOD song. It just doesn't have that emotion and heaviness that come with GOOD metal songs like Metallica's for whom the bell tolls, Dio's Holy Diver, or Candlemas's Demons Gate . Now grant it I'm comparing this band to three legendary legendary bands, but they are great examples of Emotion and Heaviness in a perfect symbiotic relationship. Also all three of those bands have their own unique style Unleash the Archers has very little new and unique in terms of music. They have above average instrument players, generic lyrics. The Lyric's almost seem to be generated by SteveTerreBerry's lyric generator.
In conclusion this band has a lot further to go before I start adding them to my play list.
Well to be absolutely fair as a composer and musician , I'm not critiquing it in the aspect of classic heavy metal to current power metal (genre difference and production differences). Dio and such were and still are fan-fucking-tastic in their respective genre and times. And to be absolutely blunt, there are TONS of current bands on absolutely different levels from the classics. Not just on vocal styles, but compositonally, emotionally, and technically. Those big 3 were of Heavy Metal from the 70s to 90s in their primes. But there's FAAAAAAAR more out there, ranging from genres not just at the basics of "heavy metal". U.T.A. are within a mixture of Speed Metal, Power Metal, and Heavy Metal. And take great aspects from each genre respectively. Personally, some of the best stuff I've listened to ranges in the Melodic Death Metal and Progressive Metal department, not saying I can't enjoy myself a few good brutal slams or heavenly neoclassical power metal riffs. Every band is unique, and does their own dances. So congratulations to U.T.A. for reaching past their previous marks. Since music isn't about who's simply better or *ahem* who makes it on your holy playlist. It's about how well a band or musician can progress in the world, and if they love what they're doing. Being a revolutionary band doesn't automatically make your band the best ever. And using that as a means of "this band isn't this other band" doesn't work for critique my dude.
In conclusion, this band is doing just fine. if you wanna listen to Dio, listen to Dio. And understand that preference and nostalgia doesn't define genre and technicality. I recommend listening to some new things my friend. Like what you like, but there's so much more to try out. Maybe try Yngwie Malmsteen for your tastes, or something like these to expand your world a bit:
(Power Metal/Symphonic Metal)
Helloween - Keeper of the Seven Keys
Ryu 5150 - Beyond the Shine
Civil War - Last Full Measure
Light Bringer - Scenes of Infinity (album)
Dragonland - Starfall
Iron Attack - Perpetual Nightmare
(Progressive Metal)
Vektor - Collapse [Progressive/Technical Thrash metal masters]
Demetori - View of the River Styx [These guys only know how to write masterpieces]
Unexpect - Words [Avant-Garde]
Persefone - Aathma (album)
(Melodic Death Metal)
Mors Principium Est - Death Is The Beginning
Thousand Leaves - Flames of Sorrow
Whispered - Upon My Honor
Kissing the Mirror - Words Left Untold
Bloodshot Dawn - Smoke and Mirrors
These are just a few to list off. Ultimately, no matter what, keep on listening my dude. You might find some other things to meet for your playlist from this list, who knows?
Kuro Blood I'm am going to leave it at this point there is no insetive for me to listen to this band compared to many new metal band such as Avenged 7 fold, Ghost, Tyr, Rasskagan, and many others I can't think off the top of my head. There is nothing unique about them.
I think it's just what you get out of the music, I'd way rather listen to this than anything by any of the bands you mentioned, I think the lyrics are really awesome and that riff is gonna be in my head for days. Also about them having their own style, I can kind of see what you mean, but I've listened to all their albums and I do think they have a very definite style of their own, it just might not be obvious on a first listen.
^^^ This guy gets it.
I love artwork, cover, music and vocals. The beggining of songs already made me want to listen to whole record!
FFS STOP GIVING ME THE CHILLS
Wearing The Matriarch shirt and listen to this song is a pure bliss.
the cover art is so beautiful! Love how you made it 3d for this. Great song!
Mab, Queen of Air and Darkness, monarch of the Winter Sidhe

it is so refreshing to hear something that gives you the goosbumps....thank you so much!!!
Ok, won't lie, I haven't listened to anything by this band yet because I thought the name 'Unleash The Archers' was dumb.
That is irrelevant. This is fucking awesome.
Napalm Records knows what the fuck is up.
Carry on.
Perfect Mother’s Day song
One of my favourite bands! 🤟🏻
Why THIS ONE doesn't have 4 million views ?!?
I mean, I find it even better than "Cleasne the bloodlines" !
Best song on the album, imo
I agree!
BEST ALBUM EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Great and amazing song. One of my favorite songs. Incredible and amazing voice. Brittney has one of the best voices in the rock and metal scene :-).
Man, that's a killer right there! Loving these guys more and more.
Unleash The Archers,of many of your masterpieces,this one is best by far.

Dear Lord that voice is just so powerful. I love it!

She already ate my heart
I CAN'T WAIT AHHHH I'VE BEEN WEARING MY UTA HOODIE EVERYWHERE HYPED FOR THIS
Perfect! Just in time for Mother's Day! For my 'mom' anyway! Rock on Archers, you are definitely & happily Unleashed!
A great capture of the '79-82 style of metal here. I'm not much of a 'power metal' guy anymore, but i love this band; bc they do it so very, very well.
perfect this voice , this instrumental .
Well this is becoming my new background music for battle times in DnD, dang.. cant believe I've never heard these guys before now!!!
Que musica foda!!! Esse CD tem potencial pra ser o melhor da banda!!
Never clicked so fast
The yell in the beginning sound a bit like this: "Meaaaaaaaaaow!"
I like it^^
Awesome can t wait for this album💜❤️💖
Saw a thumbnail for another vid of this band. On a whim, watched it. That was 4 videos ago. I'm now ordering this Album and will go see them the next time they are within a 200 mile radius of me. Can't believe I'm just now finding this band! It's like a beautiful mix of most things I love about metal. THIS is why it's okay to post your label's bands' songs on RUclips (suck it, SME). The exposure leads to fans, who buy shit. ROCK ON! \m/
Amazing vocals and instrumentals. I listened to two other songs before this. As this is my third, i can pass judgement. This is an amazing band and highly underated. They easily found their way into my buy list.
This is a superb song and a great coincidence to My brand.
Красота-то какая...Годнота
Oh this is definitely going to be stuck in my head for days. Good job UTA!!!!!
Brittney Slayes me possua, sem limites.
Mais um BR com o mesmo pensamento que eu. Que deusa!
se essa mulher nao for uma deusa, eu nao sei oq é !
Que bando de safado! Afehfeahoihoi
I have no idea what the fuck you just said... but something tells me I agree.
Fabão de Carvalho saiba que o baixista toca mais que o baixo na banda rs
Epic goodness! Brittney is amazing! Slayes, indeed!
The video is beautiful, it's brutal, it's strong, I love it
I really like the video here. Album cover coming to life, very cool.
As usual...epic job
God damn this song had me speechless! Pure epicness asf!!
This sounds like a good song to listen to while playing an epic video game and lyrics are very Power Metal esque.
That guitar riff makes me headbang
I always kinda liked Unleash the Archers, but never listened to them that much, then I heard this, I banged my head so hard it came loose
Digging the tune. Fun stuff.
The main riff is just too fucking good
Best metal band in YEARS. I haven't bought a metal album in probably 10 or more years. Until now - UTA IS AWESOME!!!
This was a total surprise and I am so happy!
All a board, the hype train is about to leave station Choo choo!
Cleanse the Bloodline was a nice throwback to the sound on the first 2 albums. This one has that traditional vibe going on like Time Stands Still. Really looking forward to hearing the rest.
Dang I can't stop listening to this awesomeness rock on loud and hard
Love how this song happens to fit really well with The Matriarch boss in Killing Floor 2.
Awesome stuff! UTA are trying out something a bit different than the kind of stuff they were doing before with this song, playing more towards the style of mainstream Power Metal by making up a powerful riff and repeating it throughout the whole song. It's really cool that they have at least one song like this in the album and it really works to hype the crowd up in a show, but it's also good that they keep doing their own thing with their slower and more epic songs like "Cleanse The Bloodlines".
I still haven't heard something that's both upbeat and unique to the style of UTA from the Apex previews we've been getting. A good example of what I'm talking about is "Tonight We Ride" from the "Time Stands Still" album or "Realm Of Tomorrow" from the "Demons of the Astrowaste" album. I do hope that there will be plenty of surprises when I do get the album on my hands.
