OK, not starting with "Awakening" but with "Northwest Passage" ... that's unusual, but nice anyways :)
Do you really think they are ready for Awakening? lol Ease them in a little before they get overwhelmed with UTA's Awesomeness. That track seems to nearly break people. But they should totally do it now.
They still need to do a reaction to it though
@@hammertim2007 I think the two ladies are ready for it. They are veterans in awesomeness.
Aww thank you Ben 😊 we just filmed our reaction to Awakening today! So it'll be up next week 😁
@@LEANNxARI Guess who is excited 😁
This is a very personal song for Canadians. Almost like a second unofficial anthem. It was originally written by Stan Rogers. Unleash the Archers' cover is a really good one. I'd recommend checking out their songs "Awakening", "Cleanse the Bloodlines", "Tonight We Ride", "Abyss", "Soulbound", "Faster Than Light", and "Legacy", as those give a better example of what their typical sound is, as this song is not typical of their style.
Definitely got the feeling that it was a very meaningful song ❤ Thanks for sharing!
Awakening will post next week!
I agree. A deeply personal song to Canadians.
I have friends and family in Canada, I'm originally born in Sweden by Finnish parents, but when I heard Northwest Passage on a pub crawl in Montreal and sang along I am now apparently an adopted Canadian. And I don't mind it a bit.
This song is some sort of legendary folk song in Canada. Definitely not their "normal" content. If you wanna continue to explore their music I would highly suggest "Tonight we Ride" and then "Cleanse the Bloodlines" and THEN move on to the stuff off the Abyss album
I agree with this.
God I love the video for Cleanse
It was once voted Canada's Unofficial Anthem. Stan Rogers was a legendary singer here.
This is Canada's unofficial National Anthem 🤘🇨🇦
BIG UNLEASH THE ARCHERS FAN!! I'm sure after listening to more of them, you will be pleasantly surprised at how rich & beautiful there metal music sounds! Thank you girls for this reaction! Abyss, Soulbound, Faster Than Light, & Legacy are all song from there lastest album. Would love to see your reactions to those songs as well!
P.S.-"Apex"(pt.1) & "Abyss"(pt.2) are concept albums. Each song is a chapter in the story.
So excited to hear more, can already tell I'm going to love them :) Thanks for watching!
And they dubbed her Brittany Slays, for that is what she does.

Unleash The Archers - Time Stands Still
Most of their songs have this similar energy and power. I love this band, and I love how you started on one of their ONLY covers. Lol it's so dang good hearing them do the "Unofficial National Song of Canada"
So good! We really enjoyed starting with this one ❤
Most. Canadian. Song. Ever.
Bold of you to start with their cover of "Northwest Passage," it's fantastic! DEFINITELY check out "Cleanse the Bloodlines," "Abyss," "Apex," ... or pretty much anything by them.
Definitely one of my favorite covers I've encountered. I grew up listening to Stan Rogers, so it was awesome to hear such a fun take on the song in a different genre! I mean, the original was a capella, so very different! And many Canadians want it as their national anthem, so pretty big deal. Love it!
Awakening will get your heart pumping
Just pure perfection
My first and still probably fave UTA song is "General of the Dark Army"
may i raise you there song called Apex :)
@@violet4793 Dreamcrusher!
"Northwest Passage" is a Canadian folk song that UTA gave a metal spin. This isn't a typical song for them, but they do range from hardassed metal to more melodic metal. Check out "Tonight We Ride" for a good example of the "hardassed" variety: ruclips.net/video/UOvZKJlrtk8/видео.html
If you want to understand Brittney's truly awesome flexibility try her Power Metal Battle "Brindisi" with Fang.
Just beyond belief how good that is, Brittney can do anything just like the Dutch windmills can.
The original Northwest Passage by Stan Rogers is a Canadian classic and it's a capella. It's one of a very few unofficial anthems like Rush's Closer to The Heart, or several by the Tragically Hip (Courage, Bobcaygeon, Wheat Kings, Ahead by a Century) that basically all Canadians know.
And hey, its often called the inofficial anthem of canuckistan ... Canada, pardon me. So Leann certainly was onto something there.
Also just has that sea shanty feel, I could see you both sway with the waves in the middle bit.
Lol! That makes a lot of sense, thanks for sharing!
IMMORTAL IS MORE THAN A NAME!
NORTHWEST PASSAGE
Ah, for just one time I would take the Northwest Passage
To find the hand of Franklin reaching for the Beaufort Sea
Tracing one warm line through a land so wide and savage
And make a Northwest Passage to the sea
Westward from the Davis Strait 'tis there it was said to lie
The sea route to the Orient for which so many died
Seeking gold and glory, leaving weathered, broken bones
And a long-forgotten lonely cairn of stones
Ah, for just one time I would take the Northwest Passage
To find the hand of Franklin reaching for the Beaufort Sea
Tracing one warm line through a land so wide and savage
And make a Northwest Passage to the sea
Three centuries thereafter, I take passage overland
In the footsteps of brave Kelso, where his ""sea of flowers"" began
Watching cities rise before me, then behind me sink again
This tardiest explorer, driving hard across the plain
And through the night, behind the wheel, the mileage clicking west
I think upon Mackenzie, David Thompson and the rest
Who cracked the mountain ramparts and did show a path for me
To race the roaring Fraser to the sea
Ah, for just one time I would take the Northwest Passage
To find the hand of Franklin reaching for the Beaufort Sea
Tracing one warm line through a land so wide and savage
And make a Northwest Passage to the sea
How then am I so different from the first men through this way
Like them I left a settled life, I threw it all away
To seek a Northwest Passage at the call of many men
To find there but the road back home again
The song that got me listening to Unleash The Archers.
same
A legendary canadian Folk Song in Original.....and a damned good Cover Version i must say !.....so now lets AWAKEN the Rest and TAKE A RIDE into their other Songs !
100% agreed! Thanks for watching!
This is more like their homage to an old Canadian traditional song :)
Not the usual that people pick for their first UTA. Still great...but I'm Canadian so I am biased lol.
great reaction, keep the UTA coming, did you notice at the end that the brittany who grabs the microphone has a different ring on a different finger
Dreamcrusher is their best song!
Kinda relevant that its a cover of a folk song, not their original work.
Awakening is the traditional first reaction thingy for them, but there are other good ones :)
Yes, a cover, so no, not much like their normal stuff. They just put their spin on it. Go for “Tonight We Rude” next!
Very cool! Excited to hear more!
Great reaction!!!!!! UTA is one amazing band!!!! check out( soulbound) (cleanse the bloodlines) Epic!!!
Great reaction
That was pretty good I'm kind of like y'all though not what I was expecting, but I like it when bands throw you a curve !
I love being surprised! 😊
I'm glad you didn't start your Unleash The Archers journey with Awakening. It's an incredible track, don't get me wrong, but it seems to be a "low hanging fruit" in the reaction channel space with like 80% of UtA reaction videos, so it's nice to see a channel starting on a different track. I see you've already done a few other UtA reaction videos which I'll be watching right after this, but if you're up for some more of this awesome band please listen to The Wind That Shapes The Land! It's hard to pick a single favourite track, but that one is a strong contender in my mind.
Everything else by them is just amazing so get on that
Yes sir! ;)
I made it XD and I love your reactions btw :)
They're a power metal band so you'll get a lot of folk music vibes from UtA! Definitely Awakening next.
ANVIL is from Canada... Uh. Maybe. ANVIL... Uh Yea.. Documentary Trailer..."This is ANVIL".. Oh Yea!!!!!! Yes. They Opened up for Iron Maiden , Dio, and Scorpions.. Back in 1982,83
Love this song!
Cleanse the Bloodlines is their best song in my opinion. Have to love Power Metal.
OK, now there is no way around reacting to another song from them. Northwest Passage is pretty much the most uncommon type of song for this band.
You can not go wrong with "Awakening" or "Tonight We Ride", and if you want to have a good laugh "Faster Than Light".
Very true, we actually filmed Awakening today. Couldn't stay away! It'll post next week 😊
Sounds like a folk song, like something Dropkick Murphys would do. Speaking of... Workers' Song.
Yes exactly, I was thinking maybe Flogging Molly too.
Ah good old Stan Rogers
Just so you know, here is what this song is "aboot," as the Canadians like to say:
The two Brittneys are at war with each other -- kind of like everyone has two versions of themselves, one good and one evil.
Northwest Passage was about leaving what was safe and comfortable life behind, and going on a journey to find out who you are. And Brittney's doppelganger kills her other half at the end, because after going on that journey, she is never her timid self again -- as anyone who has ever gone on a journey of personal discovery has ever found.
And the reason why you see all of the Brittney clones, along with the band members doing something other than playing, is because this song is her understanding of what it means to know that who you are is the sum of every choice you've ever made. In that vein, it's also why you see Brittney lay flowers at a grave marked "U.T.A.," because it represents the death of the band, had they never taken the chance, taken the risk, to find out if they had what it takes to make it -- something every doubting artist or athlete knows about. The gravestone is literally a picture of the question, "Why not take the chance to do what you want to do in life, instead of letting everybody else tell you what to do?" I say this, because most people will never know how many potential outcomes there could be, if people fought for their dreams as hard as they could, instead of letting life circumstances kill their hopes and dreams.
Better to live life, giving it your all, than to live life safely, and always wonder "What if...?", because you were too scared and afraid to act. As Nike says, "Just Do It!" I would add a quote by Admiral David Farragut, from the War of 1812, who was entering a sea-mine filled Mobile Harbor, at Mobile, Alabama: "Damn the torpedoes, full speed ahead!" That means to go for something, and the consequences be damned.
Must react to their song "Awakening"!!! It's their MUST!!
Well now you should check out "Canada" from Devin Townsend!
You should listen to “ten thousand against one” from unleash the archers.
You should react to anything from their first album, specifically their song called Four of Hand, which is my personal favorite
abyss or we ride deff check out or faster then light or hell even cleanse the bloodlines
The song was written by Stan Rogers, a Canadian folk singer, who died in 1985. Being an old Stan Rogers fan, I was thrilled to hear this one.
For another Stan Rogers song, look up "Barrett's Privateers", There are a lot of people asking Unleash the Archers to do that, too.
That's amazing, such a beautiful song. And quite the epic cover!
I love it. Start with the unofficial Canadian anthem, then follow with the unofficial Nova Scotia anthem! I’d love to here it. Goddam them all! Lol
Did you react to the original Stan Rogers version?
While I have to say, this isn't quite a patch on the sheer amazing depth of Stan Roger's a capella original. I do like the re-interpretation.
Also the video is interesting, since the song is about someone driving across Canada and musing on the explorers who first crossed the land and seas around Northern America, so the video is kind of the lead singer of the band musing on being on tour, and the way all the different journeys and versions of her and her bandmates all blur into one.
Still not sure why her doppelganger kills her at the end, but... there you go. It's metal.
