WHO IS SUGGESTING THESE TO YOU!? My goodness the greatness doesn’t stop! Please checkout “Is It Really You?” by the band Loathe🖤 their entire new album is amazing. 🤘🏽
Literally everything by them would be worth reacting. My absolute favourite band!! That being said New Faces in the Dark is my fav song and I'd love to see him react to that one
I love it when the older generation is open-minded to the music of younger generations. I love seeing that he's open-minded like this. He gave an honest opinion and I respect that.
Man never thought I'd see Loathe here. This is their most "conventional" song but I would totally suggest anything off their most recent hit album "I Let it in and it took everything" Would be cool to see some ERRA or Thornhill on here to get your take
Loathe's album from last year, I Let It In and It Took Everything, is incredible. My favorites from the album include "Screaming", "Is It Really You?", and "Heavy is the Head That Falls With the Weight of a Thousand Thoughts".
I am so in love with "Screaming". I absolutely love playing the drums to that song. The drummer switching to hitting on the upbeat in the song in certain periods is killer
Loathe is super cool. I wouldn't call this song a good representation of their style. It's still a great track. All you can do is just get lost and daydream to it. Nice work man, glad you got to these guys. They are sick. Still here.
@@northtimo666 Very true, people hear a few song and just hear 'deftones' LOL. I'd Imagine these guys just use their influences and hope people can understand the variety they put into their album as a whole. Even if a few songs sound very influenced by a certain band, you have to remeber there's not just one person writing the tracks. THe write tracks separately and bring them to the table.
I remember when Loathe released this song as a single a year ago and it was hard to describe how it made me feel. It was somber, yet hopeful. Quite melancholic. I've listened to it countless times all year and I always get the same feeling. I swear I can always smell summer rain when I close my eyes in the bridge hits. Its odd lol, but its amazing what they captured. Kadeem France (the Vocalist for the verses) said in an interview that the song was about his first "man-to-man" conversation with his father, who he had a bad relationship with. Once I read through the interview, I realized it was a sort of empathy and understanding coming from an environment with rocky family relationships. I've never had a real conversation with either of my parents, but it reminds me of my first real conversation with my older brother (my father figure.) Anyways, this band is amazing and the entire album is worth listening to if you're truly interested. One of the few pieces of music to really change my life
So amazing, I feel the same way with this song, it is one of the recent songs that have made my life better, this in 2020 and Deftones' Sextape in 2010
“I let it in and it took everything” is a great listen as well, the song really represents in an awesome way of what their sound is, at least to me lol
This song has been in my head for months, it's so beautiful and really stuck with me. I love watching you have the same reactions I had in being lost on the beauty.
It's a bit ironic, as the song itself as well as the slow motion groove in the video both give me vibes of the classic "Stuck on You" by Failure, which incidentally is about a song that burrows its way into the listener's head and they can't get it out.
Brother you are on fire with these track/band selections! Great job and I love your enthusiasm and approach to the decomposition you do. You’re helping people become better listeners. That’s a wonderful thing to be doing for people.
Totally agree! Weak And Powerless gets me every time too, but that first "give this to me" is hands down one of most soul rattling moments in music. Trains is perfect, just a perfect song all around.
YES!! Loathe is such a great band. They have an eclectic sounds, so definitely check out Aggressive Evolution and New Faces in the Dark for a taste of their heavier side. Is It Really You? and Screaming are also amazing!
"Is It Really You" would be ace! I remember exactly when I found out about them. I don't know how I discovered them, but I know I heard the album and immediately ordered the record on vinyl and booked a ticket to see them, which luckily was a week after I first heard it, In London. The gig was incredible, a small venue and they obliterated their set, one of the most energetic gigs I've been to, the crowd was nuts. This was weeks before Covid annihilated everything in the landscape, so it is almost fresh still in my memory.
Loathe are an incredible band, and I'm super glad you've discovered them on your journey! For something that's a bit more representative of their overall musical style and still keeps the ambience of this track, I'd suggest the closing track from the album this song is from (and the title track of the album): I Let It In And It Took Everything > ruclips.net/video/CB02OI9W6Yk/видео.html
I wish I could tell Loathe, that according to my Spotify account I listened to this song more than any other song in 2022. I absolutely played their new album to death. And I’m still listening to it. I connected with Two-way Mirror immediately. I was born in 90 and I guess I have a bias for slow drums and guitars. Almost like it’s a metal song in slow motion. For me, that whole album stole the show in 2022 and I can’t wait for any new music from these dudes. Thanks for sharing your reaction! Cheers!
I’m still here. I’d recommend listening to Heavy Is The Head That Falls With The Weight Of A Thousand Thoughts. Their entire body of work is amazing though.
This was a surprise, wow Loathe! Suggestions: Slice The Cake - Stone And Silver Part 1 - The Mountains of Man Textures - Awake Slice The Cake - Unending Waltz Slice The Cake - Westward Bound Part I - The Lantern Dance Gavin Dance - Blue Dream Emarosa - The Past Should Stay Dead Slipknot - Vermilion
I’m still here! Loathe is awesome- the vibe of that entire album is incredible. Really unlike anything I’m used to. The engineering behind two way mirror is just perfection, totally agree
Just came over from your Loathe slow burn from yesterday. I had to see what your first experience of them was. This is a great tune. And this album has had a powerful impact on my song writing this past year. It's so awesome to see you get into them Geebz. Keep it up, man.
I am not super familiar with Loathe, this song was pretty damn cool. It reminds me a bit of Thrice. If nobody has recommended Thrice they are great and have a similar feel, to me at least. I dont know if others would agree.
This is a tamer song. Loathe slaps hard. Their latest album is pretty amazing if you're into screams and some wack pitch shifter effects on guitar. Thrice is legit!
very excited to hear your opinion on this band! Loathe is one of my favorite bands in many years. Their sound typically leans on the heavier side, so this song is certainly a standout. I’d really recommend “Screaming” or the title track from this album, “I Let It In and It Took Everything”. Both songs are sonic journeys as well :-) much love Geebz!
Wow didn’t expect you to get to Loathe! Well now you have to do A Sad Cartoon or New Faces In The Dark! Both of them are insane sonic landscapes. I believe this was mixed by George Lever who also mixed Sleep Token’s stuff, which is also some of the best produced stuff I’ve heard in years.
I'm sure that those of us who listen to the songs that we recommend, listen to the song at least 3 times a day hahaha. I think what I love the most about this album is all the work behind it, it has many details that you can feel like a new experience to the ear
Shoegaze, ArtRock, Noise Rock, Metal, Industrial Metal, New Wave. This band is killer, and incorporate so many different layers and styles! Impressed to see you do a breakdown on this group!
Loved your level of analysis as well as seeing you listen to one of my favorite songs. "Is it really you" by loathe is my other fav by them, melodic and powerful
Deftones are a big influence for them. This song and Is It Really You are their most nu-metal-esque songs, however. Typically they're a bit heavier than this, blending metalcore, deathcore, and nu metal together. Really an interesting band, you should give them a listen if you haven't.
I totally get you when you mention listening to music and it being a curse. I probably hear things the same way you do as well. I can’t help but break down every single thing I’m hearing to dynamics, texture, effects, etc.. Music is beautiful. Thank you for these insightful videos sir!
I’m still here! For other songs: “Is it Really You” has a very similar tone instrumentally with the delays an reverb but the vocalist shows off his range more. And there’s “Broken Vision Rhythm” or “Screaming”. Those fall more in line of the metal vibe. Personally my favs are Screaming and Is it really you.
Try Is It Really You by them if you like this kind of vibe. They have some heavy songs like gored too so just a warning if it's not typically your style
It's so much fun to discover a new band that sounds this good. Two Way Mirror reminds me so much of Deftones. Hopefully you get back around to them. And if you do, may I suggest Tempest or Minerva?
3:02 That moment when he says wooow in silence, it was me the first time I listened this song. Great reaction, you should react to is it really you or Agressive Evolution, such a Great songs too
This is why these kinds of channels are important. I primarily listen to metal and have never heard of this band, but I'll be checking out more thanks to this. This song was really great!! I'd be interested to hear your thoughts on Abandon by Fallujah
Loving the videos Geebz, it’s great to see your take on the music and artists that I love, and even discover some new music along the way! Good to see the hair coming back too! hahaha Throwing Rolo Tomassi’s The Hollow Hour out there as a recommendation for you to check out! They’re an amazing young English mathcore band that have released some amazing stuff! Awwwright! 🤙🏻
wonderful video and im so glad you're doing loathe but not gonna lie, really hoping you look at more of this album cuz their other songs are infinitely more interesting to pick apart
![Megan Thee Stallion - Bigger In Texas [Official Video]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/QxTkZTLWdo4/mqdefault.jpg)
Sickkkk, Fez their bassist is a personal friend of mine. Hilarious guy , Incredible musician and a great photographer too
Bruh Im seriously jealous
He's the only guy I didn't meet when I saw them play 2+ years ago! Good to hear. All good dudes. They are sick live.
That’s Fckn awesome.
Give him a thank you from us. This album is sick and the bass line during the crunchy guitar part is great
His sense of style is admirable
WHO IS SUGGESTING THESE TO YOU!?
My goodness the greatness doesn’t stop!
Please checkout “Is It Really You?” by the band Loathe🖤 their entire new album is amazing. 🤘🏽
Best song on the album, which is my album of the year imo
Yes fucking yes !!! Loathe as One!
oh my fucking god yes please please PLEASE do "is it really you?"
pls pls pls
Literally everything by them would be worth reacting. My absolute favourite band!! That being said New Faces in the Dark is my fav song and I'd love to see him react to that one

Man never thought I'd see Loathe here. This is their most "conventional" song but I would totally suggest anything off their most recent hit album "I Let it in and it took everything" Would be cool to see some ERRA or Thornhill on here to get your take
My suggestion is Irreversible by Erra
@@BarrySchanz If I had to pick one of each band I mentioned I would go
Loathe-Screaming
Thornhill-Views from the sun
ERRA-Augment
Expiate or Augment by Erra and Screaming by Loathe would be amazing
@@myvisionisaugmented2984 Expiate is such a fantastic track. I'd love to see that one on here.
Where we go when we die by Thornhill is definitely the way to go. For Erra i would check out one of their newer songs snowblood
Loathe's album from last year, I Let It In and It Took Everything, is incredible. My favorites from the album include "Screaming", "Is It Really You?", and "Heavy is the Head That Falls With the Weight of a Thousand Thoughts".
vexsten spotted in the wild
@@xbigjeffe uh oh you caught me
Heavy is the Head is a song that just goes to 13 different places. Incredible song.
I am so in love with "Screaming". I absolutely love playing the drums to that song. The drummer switching to hitting on the upbeat in the song in certain periods is killer
Same
I'd listen to "Is it really you?" by Loathe next. its such a beautiful song as well
Loathe is super cool. I wouldn't call this song a good representation of their style. It's still a great track. All you can do is just get lost and daydream to it. Nice work man, glad you got to these guys. They are sick. Still here.
True. It is a great song, but their overall sound is much more than this.
@@northtimo666 Very true, people hear a few song and just hear 'deftones' LOL. I'd Imagine these guys just use their influences and hope people can understand the variety they put into their album as a whole. Even if a few songs sound very influenced by a certain band, you have to remeber there's not just one person writing the tracks. THe write tracks separately and bring them to the table.
I was waiting for White Hot to autoplay. 😂
@@CFChristian He is a consummate professional. No auto play :)
Gonna keep suggesting VOLA. I know they will blow your mind. Can't wait for that reaction vid.
Yes to Vola! You'll love them I'm sure!
Been waiting for the VOLA aswell. New album is fucking awesome!
Loathe and Sleep Token in a few days timespan? You're spoiling me! They were both produced by the same guy :)
George G1 Lever for the win
I remember when Loathe released this song as a single a year ago and it was hard to describe how it made me feel. It was somber, yet hopeful. Quite melancholic. I've listened to it countless times all year and I always get the same feeling. I swear I can always smell summer rain when I close my eyes in the bridge hits. Its odd lol, but its amazing what they captured. Kadeem France (the Vocalist for the verses) said in an interview that the song was about his first "man-to-man" conversation with his father, who he had a bad relationship with.

So amazing, I feel the same way with this song, it is one of the recent songs that have made my life better, this in 2020 and Deftones' Sextape in 2010
This nails it. If you're still looking for more description after all this time, I'd say it's also the complete opposite of A Sad Cartoon.
Please do more Loathe. The album this song comes from is incredible.
I've never clicked on a video so fast. How did you get into Loathe?! 😭❤🙏🏻
“I let it in and it took everything” is a great listen as well, the song really represents in an awesome way of what their sound is, at least to me lol
This song has been in my head for months, it's so beautiful and really stuck with me. I love watching you have the same reactions I had in being lost on the beauty.

You’re helping people become better listeners. That’s a wonderful thing to be doing for people.
CHICKEN SKIN SUGGESTIONS:
The Package by A Perfect Circle.
Cherry Waves by Deftones.
Trains by Porcupine Tree.
You rock dude 🤙
Pretty much all of Thirteenth Step is chicken skin territory
Totally agree!
Weak And Powerless gets me every time too, but that first "give this to me" is hands down one of most soul rattling moments in music.
Trains is perfect, just a perfect song all around.
Loathe are so good, this is definitely one of their most chill songs. Really loving the song choices on your channel!
Beautiful song!!! I KINDA wish all their songs sounded like this 👍
Good choice. I love how they use baritone fenders and they kind of do not look like they sound. Not a gimmick at all, just cool.
YES!! Loathe is such a great band. They have an eclectic sounds, so definitely check out Aggressive Evolution and New Faces in the Dark for a taste of their heavier side. Is It Really You? and Screaming are also amazing!
"Is It Really You" would be ace! I remember exactly when I found out about them.

This was weeks before Covid annihilated everything in the landscape, so it is almost fresh still in my memory.
If you like shoegaze, post-rock, and a touch of djent.. I highly recommend this one:
Lantlos - Azure Chimes
Shoegaze is exactly what I thought when I first heard him sing. Glad I saw this reaction today.
@@kroms1443 greetings friend! Here's a brand new song from the same band. I trust you'll like it!!
ruclips.net/video/RFtRXatjj1s/видео.html
Loathe are an incredible band, and I'm super glad you've discovered them on your journey! For something that's a bit more representative of their overall musical style and still keeps the ambience of this track, I'd suggest the closing track from the album this song is from (and the title track of the album): I Let It In And It Took Everything > ruclips.net/video/CB02OI9W6Yk/видео.html
YES, title track of ILIIAITE is my TOTY of 2020 along Humanity's Last Breath - Tide
Totally agree with this. I'd say that title track and White Hot are the best representations of what Loathe does majority of the time.
I’m still here! Loved this reaction, love this song, love this album, love this band!
Oh wow! Loathe that’s sick! Very cool to see you reacting and decomposing these songs.
"I'm still here"
Love your reactions and the way you visibly feel and talk about the intricacies
I wish I could tell Loathe, that according to my Spotify account I listened to this song more than any other song in 2022. I absolutely played their new album to death. And I’m still listening to it. I connected with Two-way Mirror immediately. I was born in 90 and I guess I have a bias for slow drums and guitars. Almost like it’s a metal song in slow motion.

Such a floaty vibe. I love this song!
I’m still here. I’d recommend listening to Heavy Is The Head That Falls With The Weight Of A Thousand Thoughts. Their entire body of work is amazing though.
This was a surprise, wow Loathe!
Suggestions:
Slice The Cake - Stone And Silver Part 1 - The Mountains of Man
Textures - Awake
Slice The Cake - Unending Waltz
Slice The Cake - Westward Bound Part I - The Lantern
Dance Gavin Dance - Blue Dream
Emarosa - The Past Should Stay Dead
Slipknot - Vermilion
I’m still here! Loathe is awesome- the vibe of that entire album is incredible. Really unlike anything I’m used to. The engineering behind two way mirror is just perfection, totally agree
Those super heavy guitar moments remind me a lot of the guitar lines on Lantlos' melting sun album. Beautiful!
im still here, love your reactions man! keep on doing your thing!
this song is so beautiful. Still gives me a "feeling" every time. Amazing band.
The way you break down the song really makes me appreciate the song more. Good work, you gained a new subscriber :)
I'm still here. The word I think I feel for this song is nostalgic. Great video bro
Yeahhhh buddy! Really enjoying your videos. ☕️
Thornhill's "Where We Go When We Die" needs a breakdown. So many tempo changes, an absolute journey that song takes you on.
Just came over from your Loathe slow burn from yesterday. I had to see what your first experience of them was. This is a great tune. And this album has had a powerful impact on my song writing this past year. It's so awesome to see you get into them Geebz. Keep it up, man.
Sleep Token and now Loathe??? Best reaction channel out there 🖤
Yay! He actually listened to my song suggestion. Thanks!
I am not super familiar with Loathe, this song was pretty damn cool. It reminds me a bit of Thrice. If nobody has recommended Thrice they are great and have a similar feel, to me at least. I dont know if others would agree.
This is a tamer song. Loathe slaps hard. Their latest album is pretty amazing if you're into screams and some wack pitch shifter effects on guitar. Thrice is legit!
My usual way of describing Loathe is
"if Deftones were permanently stuck in the
'Koi No Yokan' era"
Which is a good thing ;)
Thank you for taking my suggestion! Love your videos man!
I'm still here. Subscribed! This was awesome great morning wake up video.
Love this band, thank you for reviewing this band. Total atmospheric and ambient just like the Deftones
Their songs always give me chills
This brightened my day. Been a long week in Texas
It’s impossible not to nod my head every time I hear this song. Sometimes the simplicity of the drums/beat can be the most effective.
I'm still here! You're the MVP!
glorious and abyss, i love that
Outstanding song from an outstanding album.
I just discovered them last week and have listened to them every single day since. They've got variation to their sound and they do it damn well.
Two way mirror is one of those songs you wish you could hear for the first time
very excited to hear your opinion on this band! Loathe is one of my favorite bands in many years. Their sound typically leans on the heavier side, so this song is certainly a standout. I’d really recommend “Screaming” or the title track from this album, “I Let It In and It Took Everything”. Both songs are sonic journeys as well :-) much love Geebz!
I love you more because of this, Sir!
Just found this guy and I didn’t he’d be getting into the engineering side of things. Definitely helpful, thanks man
So glad you did these guys! Erik (one of the guitar players) produces my band ! Incredible guys with incredible talent!
Love this song
Love your videos man! I like how you come at these reaction videos from an engineer/musician perspective. Great stuff!
love this break down. Great tune!
Dude you choose the best damn songs to listen to. This band is blowing up right now- this album is amazing and I can't wait to see them in person
This song is so good!
Wow didn’t expect you to get to Loathe! Well now you have to do A Sad Cartoon or New Faces In The Dark! Both of them are insane sonic landscapes. I believe this was mixed by George Lever who also mixed Sleep Token’s stuff, which is also some of the best produced stuff I’ve heard in years.
Yep, this is why I suggested the song to him. Fucking love George Lever.
best breakdown of this song ive seen
I love this band. They make me feel sad in a good way!!
Glad you checked this out. Has a big Deftones vibe. These guys get really heavy, but have some really laid back songs.
Love these guys! Glad you got around to them! Everyone get this man a measly cup of coffee for entertaining you!
Yessssss thank you!!
Loathe forever.
This is perfection
Can't believe reptile by Periphery hasn't been done yet. Consider this song pls
That's exactly what I was going to say. Please do Reptile!
i’m hopping on this train, do reptile!
@@lpfan6493 he's done it a little while back :)
YEEEES BEEN HOOOOPING FOR THIS
Man you are really reacting to all of my faves in a row - Tesseract, Sleep Token, and now Loathe! Keep'em coming :)
never knew this band, glad Im subscribed to you to discover awesome stuff. Aloha :D
Thank you so much for introducing me to a world of music this was really good im adding it to my playlist
I'm sure that those of us who listen to the songs that we recommend, listen to the song at least 3 times a day hahaha. I think what I love the most about this album is all the work behind it, it has many details that you can feel like a new experience to the ear
Can you please do archspire - human murmuration? Any song from their relentless mutation album will work though.
Yes. I can't wait to see how he handles Archspire. I'm a lifelong death-metal fan and they truly boggle my mind, especially when I saw them live
Involuntary Doppelganger please!
I’m still here, so cool to hear your thoughts!!
Mr. Bungle - Carry stress in the jaw
i agree!
Yes!!! I was asking for a bit but gave up. Keep on it!!!!
Loathe are awesome!
Shoegaze, ArtRock, Noise Rock, Metal, Industrial Metal, New Wave. This band is killer, and incorporate so many different layers and styles! Impressed to see you do a breakdown on this group!
Loved your level of analysis as well as seeing you listen to one of my favorite songs. "Is it really you" by loathe is my other fav by them, melodic and powerful
They kinda remind me of Deftones.
It definitely wouldn’t surprise me if they were a huge influence on the band. I had the same thought when I first heard them.
Chino Moreno shared this song on twitter if I'm not mistaken
Deftones are a big influence for them. This song and Is It Really You are their most nu-metal-esque songs, however. Typically they're a bit heavier than this, blending metalcore, deathcore, and nu metal together. Really an interesting band, you should give them a listen if you haven't.
Djenttones
Loathe goes off at the gym, great workout music.
I totally get you when you mention listening to music and it being a curse. I probably hear things the same way you do as well. I can’t help but break down every single thing I’m hearing to dynamics, texture, effects, etc.. Music is beautiful. Thank you for these insightful videos sir!
Love Loathe!
Love your stuff man
NEED to listen to this entire album, its a concept and the whole thing is connected by crazy soundscapes its insane
I’m still here! For other songs: “Is it Really You” has a very similar tone instrumentally with the delays an reverb but the vocalist shows off his range more. And there’s “Broken Vision Rhythm” or “Screaming”. Those fall more in line of the metal vibe. Personally my favs are Screaming and Is it really you.
First time hearing this group. Strong Deftone vibes. Loved it and will have to check more.
Try Is It Really You by them if you like this kind of vibe. They have some heavy songs like gored too so just a warning if it's not typically your style
@@tylerbaars1173 appreciate the info!
you are the best!!!
It's so much fun to discover a new band that sounds this good. Two Way Mirror reminds me so much of Deftones. Hopefully you get back around to them. And if you do, may I suggest Tempest or Minerva?
when you let loathe in, they take every spot on your playlist

Great reaction, you should react to is it really you or Agressive Evolution, such a Great songs too
Great recommendation by whoever suggested this!!!
Dear Geebz, I believe the word you’re looking for is “epic” 😉
P.S. I appreciate your analysis of these songs; don’t quit!
Peace from Florida 🌴

Throwing Rolo Tomassi’s The Hollow Hour out there as a recommendation for you to check out! They’re an amazing young English mathcore band that have released some amazing stuff! Awwwright! 🤙🏻
Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeey Rolo Tomassi! Definitely a good one following the "awesome versatile female singer" trend of the reactions!
wonderful video and im so glad you're doing loathe but not gonna lie, really hoping you look at more of this album cuz their other songs are infinitely more interesting to pick apart
I'm still here! And hoping to see you react to Osiah! 🤞
