    Saw these guys back in Oct playing with Striker and Helion Prime. UTA opened with this song and the roof blew off the place. Set the tone for one hell of a set. All three bands kicked ass that night and Unleash the Archers just topped off one fantastic metal night. If they ever are in your area, without a doubt, go see them.

  • @proteusblack8913
    @proteusblack8913 5 лет назад

    Hi guys! I've been bing watching your channel for the past two days now and at this point I have to say something. There is another channel I used to watch (Vinand Sori) which I only recently realized I got into mostly because one of the first ones I saw of them was an Opeth reaction and Sori would close her eyes and get swept away. That is what attracted me. But soon after that, she never did anymore and all they ever do is go through the lyrics and analyze them as Christians. They hardly comment on the music itself at all. Infact, they completely crapped on this Unleash The Archers song because they were already decided on how the video should have been produced but wasn't. You guys are what I was hoping Vinand Sori would have been. They are good reactors and do some amazing lyrical interpretation, but you guys truly and dearly know how to actually LISTEN to the music, and that, for me, is most important. So thank you so much for this whole channel. I am certain your son would be incredibly proud of you to for this.
    Second: About the album this song opens on - This entire album is a masterpiece from start to to finish. It is is also a concept album about an immortal who is summoned from his slumber in a mountain by an evil matriarch who wants him to retrieve her three sons, bring them before her and have her sacrifice them in a ritual to become immortal herself. Like a genie, he has to obey her. There is more to the plot but I will leave that up to you to discover. I would like to highly recommend a full listen through to this album whether it is a reaction or not. You won't regret it!
    Keep up the amazing work guys!

  • @Bobcat665
    @Bobcat665 5 лет назад

    It's kind of crazy that Canada has been home to several female powerhouse singers of this calibre over the years. You should check out The Headpins and their song "Turn It Loud". (If you give that one a listen: If you can't hear what she's saying at the very beginning, you don't have it cranked up loud enough. 😉)

Yeah, Brittney's voice is amazing. You now owe it to yourselves to listen to the whole Apex album. It's a concept album and there isn't a bad track on it. At the very least, try the title track :)
    I'm not going to stop, of course, so . . .

    Unleash the Archers are amazing. The album this song comes from, which is called Apex, was my #1 album of 2017 when it came out. It's SO good. I would highly suggest you check out "Cleanse the Bloodlines", "Tonight We Ride", and "Test Your Metal" by these guys to really hear how powerful Brittney Slayes' vocals can be.

    Yes! Unleash the Archers!... love me some power metal. I requested this one as well... Lizzy Hale from Halestorm is a good vocal comparison, they both have amazing pipes and the intensity is off the charts. Halestorm would've been another band suggestion of mine, but if you're already familiar with them it's not really a first reaction.... also a fan of Big Bang Theory :)

    Recently you sampled Project Aegis ..
    That was the third iteration ..
    Check out the second with Daisa Munhoz ..
    Then check out with her band -- Vandroya ..

    Haha. Another penny dropper. This band are great and Britney Slayes, apparently her real name, has one hell of a range. Some of their other songs are vocally ridiculous. 😎🤘🏼
