Sorry this took so long to upload! Metal Dog (our puppy Shirley) chewed on the audio cord! So it took some time get the audio to work out. Then I got slammed with the damn flu with a temperature of 105!! Hope you enjoy!
She likes classic rock so she has a good head start...I myself don't like any of this modern "metal" but love classic rock and 80s/90s metal so maybe that's where we can get her....I like what y'all are doing,keep it up
still sub...pissed..but subed... do judas priest...victim of changes...wink wink
Dude I'm sorry but this song does suck
Credit to the girl, she recognizes good drummers. Mario Duplantier, best metal drummer in the world, he's the brother of the singer. ))
Gooner CestLaVie Agreed! He’s the best part! ❤️ That’s so nice that they’re brothers 🥰
@@CuratedEras Yeahh. This song 'born in winter' is actually far from what they normally do. Joe Duplantier almost never sings like that, with a mellow voice. I hope that you will check Silvera, Stranded music videos or even the gift of guilt live at brixton academy, flying whales etc and so much more. They are awesome.
@@goonercestlavie I will definitely check it out...it is my mission to appreciate metal! :)
@@CuratedEras Why were so nasty towards this song and the vocals? There's a difference between not liking a song and being a drunk jerk, which seems to be the case in this video. Like I said, by all means are you allowed to not like this song, you're even allowed to hate the song. I may be a metalhead but at least if someone shows me song from a genre I don't typically listen to or like I give it a fair chance. You probably think that I'm some close-minded and elitist metalhead which you are allowed to have that opinion but I can listen to anything from Autopsy to Slowdive to Lana Del Rey to Cypress Hill. I hope that you and your boyfriend or husband live a life full of happiness and good health. Much love to the both of you.
Thanks @metalmatt I’m trying to be more open minded. Thank you for your comment. ❤️
Huge Gojira fan here and I think maybe Gojira Silvera might be a good choice. Or go full on balls out Gojira and do The Heaviest Matter of The Universe.
This song, this band, kicks ass. Innovative, talented, and different
'Stranded' or 'Silvera' woulda been better intro i think. Hope you try that next if you do Gojira
James McGraw if she was bored of this song she’s definitely going to be bored of those songs.
@@transient442 lol. almost helpful
@@transient442 she really liked it when it built up. So she'll definitely like those.
Think about the lyrics in the beginning, basically depicting life waking up. When you first wake up, you might be groggy and half asleep. So the droning style of lyrics are meant to support that depiction. Analogize it to a movie that takes a little bit of time to set up the characters and the world before the plot kicks in. See? So try not to listen with your own pre-conditioned intention of expectation (it's not pop!). Allow it to tell its story the way its meant to be told and learn to recognize the merit in its own creative technique in doing so. :)
Love this! I will keep it in mind for the next song....thank you. :)
@@CuratedEras Try Strapping Young Lad (Devin Townsend's old band) - Aftermath live at download Festival. Devy's hilarious and it's heavy heavy with great drumming. See it here. ruclips.net/video/8kHKo_lsvsM/видео.html
Actually the whole song is a metaphor. Joe (the singer) wrote the song for his daughter. It's about growing up strong in a world where people are cold and only care about themselves, thus 'born in winter'. Joe told a friend of mine years ago. The ''we're all born from the burst of a star'' is the typical ''gay/straight/white/black we're all the same''.
I'm telling you bro...TOOL. Just be selective about which song you present to her. She's wanting a journey where her interests in lyrics and music skill are continuously peaking. If any band out there can do that, it's TOOL.
Totally agree on the Tool suggestion, but and this is a big but.... only react to Tool Lyric videos, the regular Tool videos are a bit odd/creepy and I find too distracting from the music.... 46&2 is a good one to start with and very thought provoking
We are 100% doing their first new single coming out soon. God i hope it's good and won't ruin tool for her!
Great suggestion here... I was thinking the same way...that TOOL would be something that she might like.....better start with something like Sober because she might not appreciate the other ‘long’ songs.
I take Devin Townsend over Tool.
cannibal corpse man, yeah just put on some cannibal corpse...
You MUST try "Art of dying" bu GOJIRA !! ;-)
No
No. In my time of Dying
Bad choice, good song, but too much going on with odd time signatures. Not for everyone.
Better not, it's very heavy and rough for her I think.... ophet maybe or jinger/ pieces
I hope she get into the metal journey ..... there's to many bands to show her....saludos desde mexico
"You're so used to stuff coming at your face" broooooo. 🤣
So Gojira is how Godzilla is said in Japanese. The band's name actually was Godzilla for a while before they changed it to Gojira.
As for a suggestion, how about some Wintersun? Sons of Winter and Stars? It also has a great drummer. Definitely not a short song though.
SumGuy Godzilla! Thanks for the trivia...I love it! ❤️
The voice in the beginning was part of the theme, winter can be boring and quiet as the voice can be felt as, then it rises. I wouldn't had choose that one as introcuction for my gf who discover that band for the first time. Hi from France :) You are a pretty couple ! Keep going !
I like him, he is a good guy. She seems like a shallow person. I don't like her.
A decent intro into "extreme metal" might be Opeth like Reveries/Harlequin Forest. But like some other people suggested, Tool might be the best intro into modern metal since it's not too much for unassuming ears.
Cool reaction. Vive Gojira. Give it a chance yes. I agree with all of the comments made by the cool nice guy. Gojira is one of the best metal bands in the world. Check Silvera, Stranded, The gift of guilt live at brixton academy, flying whales live, where dragons dwell live at hellfest, l'enfant sauvage, the heaviest matter of the universe, oroborus etc.. They are gods of metal
Here is one reaction suggestion for you, this is a Finnish band - Nightwish: Ghost Love Score live in Wacken 2013.
Ho yeaaaa. You start too hard with her. Try symphonic metal like @pasi suutari recommended. Ghost love score of course!
Agree on the boring start and droning vocals, if you get to back to Megadeth, listing to A Tout Le Monde, if she digs the french thing the chourus is writting in french, very powerful/emotional song, I'm sure she will love it.
Thanks for checking out the other video!
Megadeth's vocals are garbage though. Think you have to understand metal a bit more to get into them
Definitely recommend something from Breaking Benjamin,( The dairy of Jane). It's a great song to work your way into metal.
It's not boring. It's melancholic and kind of beautiful
Successfully converted my girl to love metal! Wish I would have thought of this idea! Keep it up bud!
josh bodwell so happy to hear that it can be done! ☺️
watching a couple argue about music is top tier content
Dude, I really hope she makes sandwiches. She's frustrating otherwise.
Just do flying whales live. Hard not to like that. They're better live anyway.
The entire L'enfant Sauvage album is, like everything Gojira has ever done, is a sonic masterpiece
What are the odds on this couple still being together? 30%? Basically they don't get on, different values, the lot. More fundamental tension between them than just different tastes in music. Both individually great people though, (with a different appeal) who could easily make content independently.
Jinjer - Pisces
Nightwish - Ghost Love Score
Otep - Molotov
Voice of the soul - death
Nightwish -Ghost Love Score Live in Wacken. Converted.
I believe Joe wrote this song before his daughter was born, hence Born in Winter. The lyrics are him trying to explain to her everything she is going to go through from the moment she is born until she is older and letting her know that she is a blessing from the heavens. The 1st verse is him talking to her in the womb, comforting her so that she gets used to his voice.
Its more like about a life/season cycle hinting at that even the strife of winter has its place and gives lesson to be born again even stronger its about everyone and everything
I got a great introduction to metal! Give her Devin Townsend - Kingdom Live on EMGtv. Then you can backtrack her to his old band Strapping Young Lad. :)
+Danielle Foret yes!!!!! Devin Townsend is such a musical chameleon and what a great person too. I would literally recommend any HevyDevy song because he doesn't create albums, he creates masterpieces, whether it be "Ocean Machine" or "Addicted!" he just can't make a bad album. "Empath" cannot come out soon enough.
Nightwish - Ghost Love Score at Wacken 2013, The Poet and the Pendulum at Wembley and Romanticide Wacken 2013. Trust me, you'll thank me later.
React to Buckethead - Soothsayer. Would love to see her reaction to a 9 minute instrumental only song.
Which Soothslayer?! Buckethead has billions of songs! And millions of Soothslayer (probably)!
I can't wait to buckle up for the Cannibal Corpse episode.
Nightwish Nightwish Nightwish!!! She will love it. Vocals are awesome!!(Floor lead singer is Female)
There are so many bands you need to explore to really convert. A proper metal tour, if you will.
The new Alterbeast album is crazy, the title track Feast is a real face melter.
Born of Osiris has a bunch of stuff with a really good beat, seems like she likes the stuff you can bob your head to, Divergency would be a great place to start.
The Black Dahlia Murder is super talented, they have a video for Necropolis that ya'll should definitely check out.
Fallujah is an amazing metal band, I'm a huge fan of their first full length (The Harvest Wombs), but everything they've done is great.
You NEED to show her The Fine Constant, they're a instrumetal band fronted by Sarah Longfield, who's one of the best female guitarists I've ever seen, they have a video for the song Inevitable Disconnect, good place to start.
Also, Wretched's last release, Cannibal, was a wonderful piece of musical genius.
Just a few suggestions to get you started!
Metal has some of the most talented musicians, and I wish you the best of luck in your quest for conversion!
hmm idk man, i think is a little bit forced and unfair for her starting with something so heavy, put yourself in her shoes and think "how can i introduce her this music?" if you want to convert her i suggest to start with something light and heavy at the same time, try with some bands to create the conection between what she like it and what you like it, i suggest start with Nightwish, Epica or After forever, a beautiful voice with a heavy metal music, after that you can scaling the level, i think start with Megadeth and then Gojira... hmmmm was wrong. i suggest this songs to start.
1. Epica - Cry for the moon
2. Nightwish - ghost love score (live) - with Floor Jansen with her "Floorgasm" lol
3. Nightwish - The phantom of the opera (live) -with Tarja Turunen (maybe you can provoke her the "Tarja effect" and she start to cry)
My personal history in music started listening rap and hip-hop band for their political lyrics then for this political lyrics i meet old school punk rock like Sex Pistols, Misfit, The Clash, then i meet Metallica, Megadeth, Sepultura, Pantera, and today im a guitar player who loves Dream theater, Symphony-X, Avenged Sevenfold, Steve Vai, Jason Becker, Yngwie Malmsteen, and listening a lot of metal styles, im telling you man, create the conection.
check out the first video. It was on magadeth. She ended up liking this song though. I feel we made a nice breakthrough, especially since it's such a short song.
@@metalconvert2324 hahahha yeah i saw it, but you have to admit it that was hard for her, give her time, im sure someday she will enjoy the "jump the fuck off" from Slipknot
If you get into the lyrics and themes, Gojira's thing is environmental awareness. They're pretty cool.
OH MEN,ITS WILL BE REALLY COMPLICATED "BATTLE",BUT PLEASE NEVER GIVE UP AND REALLY WHAT HELP TO UNDERSTAND METAL ,ITS RELISTENING AGAIN AND AGAIN WHAT YOU ALREADY KNOW,CAUSE MIND CANT EXPAND ALL STRIGHT,GOOD LUCK GUYS
Do Nightwish. That should get her on board
Try some of these:
Amaranthe:
Amaranthine - @
That Song - @
Digital World - @
Stitched Up Heart:
Finally Free - @
Halestorm:
I Get Off - @
New Years Day:
Defame Me - @
Butcher Babies:
Headspin - @
"the heaviest matter of the universe" - as straight in your face as it can get !!!!
Fucking love by gojira it's heavy as shit
She has to be a cardi b fan, lyrics are too smart for her
ruclips.net/video/JqtDJyWlRFQ/видео.html try it out -- I think it's the right transition of pop-emo and metal, though it's really a point where a hardcore/metal-core band is transitioning to a more poppy vibe to increase their fan base. Btw, Pamela is totally thinking of "Gogeta" which is the fusion version of Goku & Vegeta coming together. Thumps up, P.
Gogeta!!!! OMG!!! Thank you, Daniel...that was driving me nuts! haha!
Is the arguing what makes this channel stand out from the other reaction channels.
I love how she can’t distinguish the variation of notes in the main riff and completelly misunderstood it for a plain repetitive “stoner” pattern (as she called it turururururu). Cmon try to listen a bit more 😅
Girlfriend vs Pantera
Happy new year
Feels pretty bad to hear someone bash my favorite song from Gojira. Those "droning" vocals are so deliciously majestic and foreboding, very much in line with the subject matter, which is the life cycle of an organism born in a harsh environment. They're telling the story of the universe and the big bang. How we are all just particles, joined together and given life. This is probably the only song off of their 6 albums where Joe sang in such a low register, and it was a fucking treat!
Anyway, good that you're trying to get into metal. Most won't ever try.
pain of salvation- on a tuesday!! this is the meaning of the Progressive Metal on music dictionary
The best lyrics by any metal band belong to 'Dani Filth' from *Cradle of Filth* and maybe 'Bruce Dickinson' from *Iron Maiden*.
She will haaate Cradle, guaranteed... but dammit that man writes poetry like no other, lol.
this song is about the death of their mother (singer & drummer) that's a very powerfull song :) !
If she likes the breakdowns and double bass drumming, just show her death metal or metalcore/deathcore. They have PLENTY of that.
i totally agree with her, first bit bored me to sleep and then bam, the gojira that we want to know. their rythm are really fresh and unike.
cowboys from hell 🤘🤘🤘
Well on the strength of the first 10 minutes, she likes groove. Something to move to. Old Sepultura. Pantera. Lateralus album tool. Korn even. Clutch. More gojira. With a decent dancing tempo. There's your key. That'll be how you open her mind to it all. Save the balls out cerazy shit for when she's acclimatised.
Or just go all out meshuggah and cryptopsy. Never know, might work. Emperor might be the key. Or infant annihalator. She might be secretly a twisted acid grindcore fiend who only breathes pcp at 400bpm: agoraphobic nosebleed style.
Unlikely though.
Also, don't try sunnO))) if she doesn't like the drone. Or earth.
Just in terms of your interplay between the two of you, no need to argue. You're trying to get her hooked into it, when she's about to talk just ask her what she thinks. No need to correct her, it's music, not a math equation. Literally impossible to be wrong about music. Pop music bores me, but pink and bjork are OK. Bloodbath are OK at the same time. Neither of those statements is right or wrong, but there's nothing more off-putting than being told how you should think/feel over a piece of music. And by the looks of she's strong willed enough to not take it. Don't fuck up the video by going metal elitist. That path only leads to boring everyone with an explanation as to why mgła aren't really trve kvlt black metal, because windir... No one likes elitism, it makes a journey aggravating.
When she's explained how she feels over the song you can explain the journey it's taken you on. Discussion of a journey, rather than confrontation over who had the better thoughts about the journey.
Also, she looks at you a lot, so you're doing something right. Treat her well bud.
matthew godding I like you, Matthew! 🥰 Thank you for the thoughtful comments. ❤️
@@CuratedEras and yes, stoned is an easy way to put yourself into the calm, comfortable state to just listen to music, but it's not necessary. Just close your eyes and go there. That said, I hated with a burning passion dance music, until I took ecstasy the first time, that was the key that unlocked an appreciation of that type of music for me, and it's an appreciation that's lingered well into sobriety... If it works, why not?
Vocals in metal, for the most part, are neither the main feature, nor disposable. Think of the voice as an extra instrument, at their best they sit as an extra tone in the musical layers. Isis were great for 'getting' the growl. Wintersun's 'sons of winter and stars' (live at sonicpump studios) is great for accepting cheesy. Nothing wrong with good cheese. Who doesn't love French camembert? Canadian band called unleash the archers 'awaken' also great purveyors of cheese.
As for long songs, you need some reorientation. 8 minutes is fine for song length. So here's a prescription from Dr. Matthew: drink some of that tea you mentioned, and listen to marrow by yob. It's quite short at just under 20 minutes. Listen to the whole album it's on in fact, it'll be nice whilst stoned. 4 songs in 60ish minutes. Then, to wake up, listen to long song- green carnation's 'light of day, day of darkness' it's about 62 minutes from start to finish. And it's fast. After those, 8 minutes should seem fine. If not, bell witch released an album last year called mirror reaper. It is again, 1 song and it clocks in at 83 minutes. Of sadness and gloom.
Don't let your boyfriend just throw these vids out unprepared either, preparation can be fun. Don't know the song or the band? Wikipedia. This album gains a different flavour once you know it's a tribute to the drummer and singer's mum dying. Or even historical context: megadeth helped create all this blessed noise? Well of course it's gonna be 'stayin alive' levels of cheesy. Or even just band members: just 3 people can make this much noise? That's impressive...
Welp, have a good day my dear.
Please react to Angra - Black Widow's Web (Official Music Video)
I'm thinking Tool lateralus. I think she would like it
She's to metal to be cool :).. try her out with Oceans of slumber..song Winter...she will convert mwahahaha!!!🤘
Pamela is entertaining, keep up the good work!
Ghost love score-Nightwish
Ok..Pamela...here is a couple 10's for you play list..."dangerous"...ft. Howard jones... and..."titanium"...live...an adel cover song....there are a couple 10s for you...your welcome
the poet and the pendulum - nightwish
Listen to The Melvins - Revolve. They wrote the song lyrics on the premise that the lyrics dont matter if the music is good. You can literally sing any words as long as the pitch of the word fits.
Wanna blast her with: Full complexity and blastbeats - Wintersun, sons of winter and stars. Blunt Force - Pantera, Walk. Technical mastery, shock and girl power - Jinjer, Pisces. Or maybe soften her to growls with perfect clean vocals and short song - Amorphis, The Bee
I'm subscribing to you guys because this is interesting. The best Gojira album is "Magma" while they were making the album the mother of the singer and drummer passed away. Leading to the most emotional album they have ever created in my opinion.
ITS CALLED BEING MUSICALLY DYNAMIC WOMAN YOU START OUT MELLOW BUT THEN YOU AMP IT UP
If you want something to really wake her up to metal, check out Cypecore - Dissatisfactory. Another one would be FROSTTIDE - Revenant. Great channel by the way!
You're a very patient man
Too bad they never get to experience Gojira for it's full discography, you deserve that!! Ignoramus!!!!
This song is the one that got me into gojira, no THC involved. There is a build lol, he was right when you guys paused it. Most metal requires some patience. And lol she said she would listen to fall asleep before the drop, and also this is probably one of only about 4 songs of theirs you could possibly say that about. 😆😆😆
Its just a song stop caring so much about genre this band is "Life Music" nothing else
This is my and my friends all the time hahaha i enjoyed this
If you want interesting lyrics that’ll make you think. And a vocalist that will not only keep you interested... but wow you. And progressive musicianship. Gotta do Tool. Maybe start off with The Grudge.
I am married to a none metal fan. You have to find songs she enjoys. good luck with her being a metal fan. be happy if you find a few songs here or there she enjoys. good luck with hardcore metal.
You both make good points, being stoned makes everything better. Facts.
Gotta do some classic judas priest
I fucken love her... she's blowing his shit up.. BAHAHAHA. His song choice is so weak he has no come back.
START WITH SOME PINK FLOYD MAYBE?
Id really like to see her reaction to Cloud Factory by Jinjer. Specifically the live video. It's a great representation of female vocals in metal.
This is prog metal. Flying whales might have been a better choice of songs for her imo. Metal has a whole lot of sub genres doubt she's going to dig all of it.
Royal Hunt - Tearing Down The World
She needs to listen to Metallica - Orion
Welcome Home Sanitarium
I think she isn't even trying to
Pfff you men have a great patience
Oh she's trying. Trust me.
I think she's kinda right about the fact that's it's a bit slow in the beginning and makes that a bit more boring for the start.
I think when she listens this more, she'll definitely like it!
I think we'll get her ;)
show her some iron maiden. up the iron
Someday I will find a girl looking at me the same as she does to him Xd, please god ,please gojira.
So I heard you don't like slow buildups and you like double bass? I recommend Backbone by Gojira.
PS: Born In Winter (i love this song) is probably closest to a ballad by Gojira, so it is not really representative of their range.
The best French band ever !
3:24 Start of the song. :)
Okay im watching this 3 years later. I watched 6 minutes for now. What I see: A dude, he obviously likes the song. She looks bored, she stops paying attention (thats a nono for a music reaction, if you dont care, dont watch it, dont upload it). She gives him eyes like "Why do we have to do this?". Arguement and passive aggressivenesess intensifies. She thinks its repetetive, while probably listening to pop music, having 0 understanding of music and just likes to mock this song. I dont where you are at now, but its better to divorce XD I think you 2 life in different realities :D
I wish I found this earlier
It’s not that the singer takes a step back in metal but the instrumentalists take a step forward!
In dream theater the singer walks off the stage for their instrumental parts 🤣🤣
Can you try Ghost? There were plenty of great songs but maybe “Cirice” or “rats”
I highly recommend 4 guns n roses songs, paradise city, sweet child o mine, welcome to the jungle, and November rain. You can go in any order
Give Queensryche - Suite Sister Mary a shot. It's from one of the best concept albums of all time. There's a live video on the Queensryche channel and I think you'll like the lyrics also.
I'm sorry. she just said maybe if I was in a bath tub ( blowing fart bubbles ) would I listen to this. that is priceless!! sorry I added the fart bubbles but we all knew what she was saying
You must listen to more of their songs, they are UNIQUE for what they made
Girlfriend - Interesting channeling of Slash. Seeing him tomorrow so will try to compare.
Boyfriend - you seriously have gone with the deep end strategy... fair play but if you are going to do it then choose something like Heaviest Matter of the Universe and hit girlfriend in the face (figuratively) with it .
Girlfriend - the music doesn't take priority over the vocals... it should be an entire product.
have her listen to five finger death punch
Why don't just listen to the entire song and speak later? Why judge the song by the beginning of it?
Drrr...dangerous and titanium are within temptation songs...sorry guys
