I love how Casper is listed as the extra hyena, great of him to step in. All of the guys are great in their own rights but no one does dark and menacing like Tomi and I am here for it.
its honestly crazy, because of his high range and mid chest voice you dont expect him to sound deeper than someone like bobby but the weight of his voice is. its terrifying
I see it as Be Prepared combined with Hellfire. Espcially thinking back to Tomi's cover of the latter. Though more a cult setting within a cave with Tomi as the Grand Inquisitor.
What you were discussing in your outro about something not being present and the fact that we are used to seeing multiples of the guys is accurate. We have gotten spoiled with the green screen videos so this is something we’re not used. We are also used to everyone having a spotlight part in each song, and this album is focusing on one individual per song and highlighting their individual talents.
I listened to Peter's reaction/analysis and he pointed out some of the bats from that cave that we saw in Arabian Nights. He also said the authorities didn't believe Marwan would be working so they wouldn't approve him leaving Egypt.
In general, US and EU visas are a pain if you don't have a first-world passport. Americans tend to assume that of course anyone who can afford the plane tickets can just go anywhere any time, but in fact that is not actually how the world works.
I don't think any level of warning could have prepared us for this track. It seems that "Friend Like Me" will be the 4th and final track dropped from this album, "Gaston" looks to be up next. Can't wait to see what happens next, thanks Mortius for sharing your passion and talent.
Casper you are part of the gang now 😉 lets hope we see you some more .... Thanks Mortius great reaction, lovely to see your little pup too, she was loving that cuddle..
Hm. I seem to have forgotten to reply, yesterday, back when I first watched this. Anyway, what seems most different about this is that they are taking a page out of VoicePlay's book, and going full-on "Theater Kid" mode, which each lead singer playing a single character (and doing it so well). Tomi makes a fabulous Scar. Based on Peter Barber's reaction, I believe that chanting they're doing is original (it's in Latin -- going with the "deranged monks in a cult" vibe).
This was sick!! You definitely called the build up to something crazy lol I think you’re right, it is very different from their crazy ensembles, but in some ways it actually shows how good they are. In art, they say you can’t break the rules until you’ve learned them - Bass Gang has done the opposite - they broke all the rules and now they’re showing that they can also create great art as the art form was originally intended. I’m digging it :)
Love the direction they went with this. Theyt couldn't do it straight because I don't care how good they are, they couldn't have topped Jeremy Irons' original, but this was really cool.
Does anyone know the Latin they're chanting? It sounds to me like "mortem mundo aver rex novus." My apologies for waaaay too many years since bothering with Latin, but I think that means "the new king averts death from the world." Which is something a worshiper would say, and the opposite of what Scar does in the film.
This is disappointing. How are you going to sit here and say “I was waiting for some like really low bass notes”…. When the song is full of low E1 which is ridiculous, with Bb0s in the arrangement from several people.. just goes to show you really just don’t know what you’re listening too and not appreciating what they are actually giving you.
Sorry to hear you’re disappointed 🤷♂️ I react to what I hear in the moment; nobody’s perfect, and expecting such will only lead to more disappointment
I think there's an important distinction to remember when you're commenting on reactions between background bassy 1st octave notes, and leading bassy 1st octave notes, since generally speaking the bottom end of the audio spectrum is significantly to pick up on without focusing on it than the higher ends. A mistake for sure, but it's one that's easy to make, at least in my opinion.
5:14 that was fkn hilarious lmao
Read the credits again... Casper Fox is listed as "Extra Hyena..." 😊
No one could have been prepared! It's The Bass Gang - you should know by now that they love to shock and amaze people - especially YOU! 🤣
Marwans muffled screaming in the lamp!
I love how Casper is listed as the extra hyena, great of him to step in. All of the guys are great in their own rights but no one does dark and menacing like Tomi and I am here for it.
Tomi legitimately scares me in some of his videos.... and I AM HERE FOR IT!
Tomi was so sinister in this one... it was perfect. I love the way they worked around the sad situation with Marwan. So clever and so much fun.

Mortius, great reaction! For more explanation about Marwan and the lamp, you really need to watch Mr. Barber's break down.
Ok, this is my favorite version of this song now. Holy crap!

Tomi P’s vocal range is impressive, but his agility to move fluidly between octaves is incredible.
Love the direction they went with this. Theyt couldn't do it straight because I don't care how good they are, they couldn't have topped Jeremy Irons' original, but this was really cool.
My goodness it is really gonna be the month of the Disney Villain songs So much scary FUN!
They are multitracked, but since they're in one place, they're only one per on screen, I believe.
mortius your reactions are so adorable.
Pupppppyyyyyy
Nice growl! This was fun and insightful as always, thanks Mortius!
Thank you for the reaction and analysis Mortius.
Wonderful dose of puppy ❤
Thanks, Mortius! You are so vibrant and fun!
Cute Puppy!

This is soooo good! I was also not prepared for this one too. Great reaction again Mortius 😊
Tomi (no surprise there) hit a C0 at somewhere near 4:50 but its fry so cant be counted
Another great video and reaction as always! Can't wait for the next one!!
❤❤❤
Someone please get this man to do a reaction to the Live version of Hakkerskaldyr by Heilung from their LIFA concert at Castlefest.
Was NOT expecting an iCarly reference of all things from you, Mortius! xD
Heyyyyyyy good job placing that!!! I wasn’t sure if anyone would 😆
