Mortal Coil is the album that kinda kickstarted me to actually dive into the metalcore genre, so its my all-time favourite. Both Death of me and fatalism are amazing albums. Pray For Rain is like the perfect opening to an album, similar to Harbinger in Fatalism other than that im a total sucker for Hypermania, Waves, All of this is Fleeting
honestly such a good album. the descent and above my head are some of my favorites on this just due to the structure of it being so unique. the mortal coil is full of those kinds of moments, need that reaction next
Jamie's vocal flow is amazing, one the reasons I put him the the top tier. He doesn't have a ton of range but his flow and emotive delivery fucking crush it every time.
I've left this comment on so many videos about these dudes recently, but Dan (drummer) is CRIMINALLY underrated IMO. Polaris does everything "metalcore" at a really high level. I appreciate how much you're calling to just how talented of a drummer he is. Saw these dudes live 2 weeks ago and they put on a hell of a show!
I'm late to this video, but I love the fact that you talk about the theory behind the music. I may be wrong but I haven't seen any other metal reviewers do that. I'd love to see more thorough breakdowns of your favorite songs and why they're your favorite.
I'm starting to do a little bit more of that with my reactions now. I want to dig deeper into the theory of why I like a certain song so much. I'm planning on doing a sort of monthly "podcast" where I talk about how my opinions have changed on all the music I listened to over the month which should be interesting
Alright well thanks for occupying 2 hours of my night lol Landmine, Masochist, All of this is Fleeting is my top 3. I had the pleasure to see them live on October 25th here in Charlotte, NC. Please do yourself a favor and see them live.
Highly recommend: Dissipate, Parasite, Overflow (from Fatalism), Dusk to Day, Crooked Path (from The Mortal Coil), Unfamiliar, Voiceless and No Rest (from The Guilt and the Grief). 10/10 amazing.
I really enjoyed Above My Head. And when I'm with friends turned off by screams, I still love vibing to the instrumental. Have you ever checked out the Russian band Shrezzers?
@coreyclip1 you’re in due for a full reaction to aoghau- the last record Tom wrote before passing to cancer. Some of the modt powerful lyrics and music ever written in that record.
if you want a bit of a different side of metalcore i think you should check out Burying Brightness by Boundaries, super old school metalcore / melodic hardcore with some modern twists (my aoty of 2022)
I heard that album when it released but I honestly don't remember much of it. I remember liking it but it wasn't my favorite. Maybe I have to give it a few more listens
It would be fun if you checked out tdwp - with roots above and branches below, i wanna see how much you slam it (if you do check it out and/or slam it)
I've been enjoying your reviews and I was wondering if your could check out Bad Omens self-titled album, if you want and if you've never checked yet of course.
Definitely most Fridays at 9am EST unless I'm unable to. I might do some streams at other times, but if you join my discord (link in description) I post updates about when I'm going to go live

Some huge bangers on this album for sure

It's coming! I'll probably stream it some morning next week

I'll try to next time they're in town
hell yeah dude! the mortal coil next!!
We shall see ;)
@@coreyclip1 you have to do Mortal Coil eventually, by far their best album imo
@@AB21 It's on my Patreon poll so I'll get to it eventually!
Pray for Rain and All of this is Fleeting live are unbelievable.
Oh I bet! I heard they put on an incredible show
Loved this. Very excited for the mortal coil if you decide to do it.
It's on my list!
Highly recommend: Dissipate, Parasite, Overflow (from Fatalism), Dusk to Day, Crooked Path (from The Mortal Coil), Unfamiliar, Voiceless and No Rest (from The Guilt and the Grief). 10/10 amazing.
He did a video on the whole Fatalism album. You should check it out!
You must be crazy talented to just be able to replicate those chords🤯
I have perfect pitch which helps lol
And I've been doing music stuff for close to 20 years now
cool setup mate, amateur pianist myself. new sub here
Thanks for watching and subbing!

Have you ever checked out the Russian band Shrezzers?
Never heard of them. What are they like?
Second comment don’t mind me but have you checked out architects? They are kind of modern metalcore royalty (atleast their older material)
I haven't heard much from them but I like Doomsday
@@coreyclip1 i suggest Hollow crown, Lost forever // Lost together or All our gods have abandoned us, that’s kind of peak architects
@coreyclip1 you’re in due for a full reaction to aoghau- the last record Tom wrote before passing to cancer. Some of the modt powerful lyrics and music ever written in that record.
I would love to know what you think of ERRA. Specifically Impulse or Augment album reactions if possible. Id pay to see that.
You'd pay to see that?? Well my Patreon album tier is open (link in description) 😏

@@coreyclip1 definitely a grower for sure! Was thrown off by the chaotic feel of the tracks at first but after a while I just couldn’t stop listening
It would be fun if you checked out tdwp - with roots above and branches below, i wanna see how much you slam it (if you do check it out and/or slam it)
I'll definitely do that! I need to get into more old TDWP
I've been enjoying your reviews and I was wondering if your could check out Bad Omens self-titled album, if you want and if you've never checked yet of course.
I'll add it to my ever-growing list! I've only heard Death of Peace of Mind from them
@@coreyclip1 Fine, thanks man 🙌
Hey did you react to The Mortal Coil? I can’t find the video?
@@user-cq9pk4zg2g nope I haven't heard that one yet. It's on my Patreon poll though so I should get to it eventually
at what times do you normally will be doing streams dude?
Definitely most Fridays at 9am EST unless I'm unable to. I might do some streams at other times, but if you join my discord (link in description) I post updates about when I'm going to go live
