Thanks so much for the analysis! 🎻
Love from Morocco 🤘
Oh shiy
thank you for such killer song!
It should´ve been played with the outro of the previous song "The Deceit". Goosebumps every time!
O:
Oh, finally! There are many super interesting songs by Fleshgod, this was one of the less symphonic of the lot. They have a female opera vocalist too, very talented! Try Epilogue by them next!
YESSS
Epilogue is truly Epic as well and quite different at the same time !!!
Prologue leading into it as well
+1 vote for Epilogue
I also would recommend: (Marche Royale) In Aeternum
There are several things that need mentioning
1) This is a Mozart Cover song (his Symphony No 40 in G minor)
2) There is a long symphonic introduction to this track in the previous song ending.
3) They are a great band on Nuclear Blast Records (the best and most popular Metal label worldwide).
4) They are from Italy
5) There is a music video for this track
6) The high pitch vocals are a homage to Vortex from Dimmu Borgir (that did the same thing in the 2000s). Fleshgod Apocalypse later replaced it with a female Soprano singer.
7) Their later albums Veleno and King have the original songs and also the same ones as instrumentals and with a plain symphony (no Metal added).
8) Their first album is not symphonic at all. This track is from their second album.
9) This band really loves Classical music.
10 They have not put out a new album in about 4 years.
Yes! Absolute sucker for Fleshgod Apocalypse. Little tidbit of info: the drummer? Used to be one of the guitarists and at the time of that album, had only been playing for TWO. YEARS.
As a suggestion along these lines, you should check out the band Kamelot, specifically their track "Ghost Opera" or "Sacrimony"!
Oh my God I would love Sacrimony.
Francesco Paoli has been a guitarist again for the last 5 years
If you want something slower, try Cold as Perfection by Fleshgod Apocolypse. Their operatic singer comes in towards the end and it gives me goosebumps every time. The whole King album is fantastic.
That song is great. And the way the opera singer melds into the guitar solo is perfect. Agreed on the goosebumps.
Yeah the King album would be right up @keyofgeebz alley
And if we want something faster
That mid section before the guitar solo where the female lyric singer shows up is fucking insane.
Cold As Perfection is a masterpiece of a song.
So my first exposure to this band was live; they were supporting Wintersun on tour. It was a small ass bar venue, and for the band setup, they had to haul an upright piano through the side door and up on to the stage (luckily just a section of floor a few inches higher than the rest) and a few of us were asked to assist with the piano carry...then they melted our faces with this song as the opener
Dude holy shit Wintersun and Fleshgod?! I bet that was sick
@@andrewhooker8798 Wintersun, Fleshgod, Arsis, and Starkill (US tour in 2013) it was absolutely insane
Ohhhh what a lineup. I saw them with rings of saturn, and decapitated, my first intro to them was live as well and I never looked back 🤘🤘
I love little bar venues like that The performance is so much more personal. I couldn't imagine The feeling of learning about these guys from having them near eye level almost face-to-face blasting into my soul like that, I bet it was life-changing.
@@TheWiseGrif wow arsis as well? Damn that was special ! Those guys were good as well but idk what happened to them
Francesco Paoli is the drummer on this song, he's one of the founding members of the band. Originally he was the lead guitarist, but they needed a drummer so he learned drums, at the point of recording this album he's been playing drums for about 2-3 years. He's considered one of the best drummers in extreme metal. Sadly, Francesco is back on guitar and has taken over lead vocals as well since the departure of their lead singer/lead guitarist.
Francesco Ferrini does the orchestration for the band and does piano, and yes for live shows they have a big piano on stage that he plays, its awesome.
Fleshgod Apocalypse is one helluva unique band, i've seen them lives several times. Some song recommendations from them "The Forsaking" "Minotaur" "Pathfinder" "The Fool" and "Thru Our Scars"
Don't forget "Towards the Sun", "Under Black Sails" and "The Betrayal".
Mafia, Agony and Labyrinth was prime FA.
Eugene Ryabchenko has been a great replacement drummer so far. I love Francesco as a frontman so I think it’s for the best.
@@nonono7973 Never really liked Francesco as a drummer. I know it's not his main thing, and that was pretty obvious in their live performances. Extremely sloppy playing. Eugene isn't quite up to Francesco's top speed just yet but his playing is much cleaner.
When Francesco announced that he'll leave the drum throne I first was like "what the fuck? He can't!" and then "How will they replace them? I mean there's only one drummer in the world who could fill in, that hard working ukranian guy with the violation drum cover, but they never will...." And they did. And I was like "YES!". Eugene is the perfect match for this job and fleshgod in their current lineup are just insanely awesome. Could'nt be better.
@@meowmoooink4225 I have to disagree. eugene is a much better drummer and can definitely keep up with francesco's top speeds.
I love that you are doing Fleshgod Apocalypse now. This was the one band i really wished you to do for a year now. Please do more FA soon.
Minotaur (The Wrath of Poseidon) is such an amazing track too. Easily a 10 and less chaotic than The Violation
The Egoism too
Asterion Lord of Suffering!
You should do Emperor - With Strength I Burn. IMO they created the symphonic metal genre. They are symphonic black metal. I feel Fleshgod gets there inspiration from Emperor. You already reacted to the lead singer / guitarist from Emperor in his solo band called Ihsahn - The Pain is Still Mine and he is the brother in law to the singer from Leprous.
Vote this comment up, it needs to be seen!
Agreed.
Acid Bath: The Blue
You'll thank me later. CRIMINALLY underrated Band.
the whole "when the kite string pops" album is great
Every single acid bath song is great. Metal poetry. Both albums are amazing and their run was far too short. At least we got Goatwhore out of it.
Problem with this though is AB is very hard to find on youtube due to the greedy record label getting it removed almost instantly.
At the end of the day, Music is Art and expression, and should treated as such.
Necrophagist - Only Ash Remains/ Stabwound 👋
The intro buildup in the music video version really adds to the song, in my opinion. Glad you're digging Fleshgod though! 🤘
Falshgod Apocalypse "Mona Lisa" is a masterpeace
Fleshgod Apocalypse is pretty epic live, too. I caught them along with Arsis, and Starkill, with headliners Wintersun some years back. Have you checked out any Shade Empire yet? they're more along the lines of symphonic black metal rather than symphonic technical death metal... but worth a listen too. Maybe have a listen to Anti-Life Saviour.
Shade Empire deserves more love
Anti-Life Saviour would be epic on here. Such a great track.
Good job Geebz, keep going and thanks for the variation in different metal genres. It`s nice to know that you have a good compensation for this heavy stuff. I never heard of them and already feel bad that I didn`t. Now I have new stuff to listen to, again thanks to you! Thumbs up
Love for you to hear "A Flood of Light" by Rolo Tomassi, a great band out of England that doesn't get much attention!
The Hollow Hour is my fave track off that album. Solid band!
Agree! Definitely one of my favorite tracks as well.👍
In their later albums they actually release them as doubles where each song has a classic instrument only version. It's really satisfying to hear them on their own.
I think that one of their best track is Epilogue. It's definitely my recommendation :)
That's such a beautifully sad track. One of my favorites.
I love the brutality of this song but those guys made the album like a full play so if you wanna enjoy the intensity of the intro at full I recomend you to listen the ending of "the deceit" (previous song) or the whole album xD
The look on your face when you air drum, haha. It is so ridiculous. Amazingly ridiculous.
The King album is actually significantly better in my opinion. In Aeternum is the track that turned me on to them, a band I otherwise probably wouldn't have liked.
Fleshgod Apocalypse at the time had Francesco Paoli on drums and vocals. At the moment he is the guitarist/vocalist, but he had a very nasty accident a while ago which meant he had to relearn how to play guitar. The clean vocals on this album are done by the bassist
They often have ORCHESTRAL ONLY versions of the same songs. It'd be cool to get your thoughts on two of their tracks that have vox and drums and then the orchestral version.
I would love to hear your reaction to Dimash's The Story of One Sky!❤More Dimash!!!❤
Imagine writing such drumming parts KNOWING you'll have to play it almost every day on a tour. True savage.
Mercyful Fate - A Dangerous Meeting
oooh you're going for one of my all time favourite brain exploders xD I love this song so much. But i would never expect a sane person to take the time to really dig into it xD Excited to hear your input 😀
HEY !!!!!!! THANK YOU !!!!! I emailed you this week for this one.... Thanks a million times !!!!!
Sometimes I feel like geebz is going to struggle to say anything positive... Then he does it!
Hey geebz they are 100% Neo classical, you had it right
A nanofart lag…guess I learned a new unit of time 😂
Hehe, I'm going to see these guys live on Sunday, also Septic Flesh next Wednesday. I'd recommend Hate - Exiles of Pantheon, I rarely see this band in reactions, although they have been in the metal scene for over 3 decades and released many solid albums.
nanofart... i'll use that a lot!
DODHEIMSGARD- Shiva-Interfere
please please please please please
on second thought, that might not be the best song to do, since the weirdness is more in the vocals and atmosphere, not really the musical composition. instread try:
UNEXPECT- chromatic chimera
EPHEL DUATH- the embossed (off of rephormula)
EMPEROR- curse you all men!
Has there ever been a more perfectly titled song?
Finally you did it sir. I would like to see you reacting to their song "Epilogue"
This song was my introduction to them, and personally the stuff where Francesco Paoli is playing drums, (he can play anything), but the way the orchestra follows his drums, just awesome. An example of extreme stamina is the song kingborn, Francesco used to split the song up. There's a perfect cover of the song by David diepold playing all the way through.
This one really makes me want to see you react to Those Whom The Gods Detest by Nile
Thanks for doing fleshgod apocalypse. I think you should do their song "the fool" next. It has an awesome harpsichord intro I think you would really like.
Love the heavy music and appreciate everyone that you do!
Love Fleshgod Apocalypse, one of the heavier bands ever but the keyboard player plays an actual piano throughout their entire live shows.
I'd recommend you check out something from their newest album Veleno because i personally think it's the best implementation of classical music in metal, but they also have some ballads that are must-watch like Epilogue
Actually, a slow-burn with their last 4 albums would be really dope.
yep this definitely gets me on edge
I highly recommend Epilogue by FleshgodApocalypse. 100% My favourite track of theirs
Seeing FGA live with Septicflesh at a small venue still best life experience. Watching how fast his hand was moving playing guitar was mind blowing. Thanks for sharing!
I love how these more extreme metal bands don't give you breathers along the way. They are a bit mercyless and feed you with the note chaos until the end. Some less heavier bands could also take a hint from that. Just keep feeding until the end.
Namaste
They are amazing live. Check them out if you can! Hopefully they will tour the US again soon.
Surprised I haven't seen anyone else suggest the song 'Syphilis' for a slower track from them.
Love this album, and the reaction. The Egoist off the same album is another killer track.
Please do "Transcendence" by GOROD. 🤘
Scar Symmetry - Holographic Universe
FLESHGOD APOCALYPSE - The Forsaking is another masterpiece from them and little bit different.
That was intense for sure) Buuuut, a little boring. BEHEMOTH Versvs Christvs recommended)
Another amazing song by fleshgod is the fool. I love that song so much
if you want more metal with orchestra! SEPTICFLESH- VAMPIRE OF NAZARETH (LIVE VIDEO 2020)
Fleshgod Apocalypse.
Actually, is a Biblical concept.
Definitely listen to some more of their recent material. One of the best bands around imo!
Of you like the violation. Then you really should listen to The Forsaking. It's a masterpiece.
Wish you’d heard the slow orchestral intro immediately beforehand
I’d recommend giving The Fool and Epilogue a listen.
FINALLY!!! YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Saw Fleshgod Apocalypse live in a bar of all places, headlining for Carach Angren and Abigail Williams, right around the time of their King album release. Actually went to see Carach Angren, which is a band you should check out (preferably 2008-2012 releases), who put on the best performance show in my opinion but dang did FA fill that venue with sound. King isn’t their best album in my opinion, but that didn’t even cross my mind at the time. Great stuff.
The Violation has a drumcam video.
Incredible but true.
Yes yes yes! Great band! We need to dive more into these dudes 🤙🤘
Please review and give your reaction to the song “Jay Walking Backwards” by The Number Twelve Looks Like You. You will not be disappointed.
Oh man, you needed to add the intro track that comes before this song on the album. It's about a 45sec intro with strings. I think it's called The Deciet. The strings intro completes the song.
Somebody show Geebz the video of the drummer throwing up on stage and continuing to blast
Thank you thank you thank you. Please please please take. Listen to The Deceit
Good stuff! A wee bit sad that you didn't get the full song (with the intro).
One of my favorite aspects of the song is that the drums, cymbals to be specific, follow the strings - and vocals - closely.
I’d love to see your take on Forging Toward The Sunset by Anaal Nathrakh
Request: you definitely got to check out Celtic Frost - A Dying God Coming into human flesh.
I wonder if you'd consider some japanese death metal? I found this band Imperial Dead Circus Decadence a while back and I wonder what you'd think of them. Here's one of their normal length songs, called Shinbatsu if you're interested. ruclips.net/video/FV9nkEHmLak/видео.html
I find I barely hear anyone talk about the japanese metal scene but I think japan is probably the most under rated country for metal at the moment, probably due to no english lyrics. But you don't listen to lyrics you listen to vocals as an instrument so I thought you might appreciate them
I hate that this song has become the default gateway to Fleshgod Apocalypse. It's pretty low down on the pecking order of their songs IMO.
Septicflesh was a perfect comparison, symphonic death metal at its finest 😉
Why do they gotta sing like they're monsters? I dig the music but can't take the growling
Please do The Egoism next (found on this same album)
An interesting song for you to review, Geebz. It's not the type of metal I listen to but it's pretty cool.
But you skipped Godflesh
Asterion Lord of Suffering!
EyehateGodflesh Apocalypse
One of the most insane bands ever
Dance Gavin Dance 🥲
air drum that for a great workout
Fleshgod Apocalypse is incredible. This song is mostly recommended for shock value (the machine guns aka the drums), it's not really one of their best songs in my humble opinion. I think you would appreciate the following songs more: "Epilogue", "Monnalisa", "No", or "Sugar". On the latter two, the drummer has actually taken over the vocals and rythm guitar.
The Betrayal is my fav from this album!
Keep dabbling in metal. So much to explore!
Every album they release is fantastic, they only get better and better. Veleno being their latest is incredible. Highly recommend Embrace the Oblivion and The Day We'll Be Gone.
Wow, what a track. Too heavy and blasting for me, but I enjoyed the strings, piano and the solo. Interesting stuff
YES! Never clicked so fast, please do another!
"mamase mamasa mamakusa"
haha what a coincidence!
I was just listening to 'Wanna be starting somethin' by Michael Jackson before watching this vid
For your own viewing pleasure, David Diepold does a drum cover kingborn, by fleshgod....filmed super professionally, also probably the most naturally talented extreme drummers going.... you have to see to believe what these fellas are capable of!
Love your breakdowns, your also super talented, love your vids👍👍
Thank you very much for analysing one of the greatest ( and fastest) song from Fleshgod apocalypse!! The Fool is another great one from them. :)
It’s a slightly different sound, but I’d highly recommend “Ultima Hypocrita” by Mental Cruelty. It has one of the greatest guitar solos I’ve ever heard.
I'd love to see more from fga and I'm throwing in something from the other end of their spectrum: Embrace the Oblivion, just love the song and the composition, check it out
Love fleshgod. My favorite track is the forsaking.
Love your channel! I wasn't a big fan of that huge orchestral sound in the beginning. Everything else was pretty cool.
Is it weird that during the intro … I was waiting for the manic house decorations to kick on … they didn’t come !!! Must be spoiled by the season or something!!
Also after your pause the bold rhythm section pattern had a full orchestra London Symphony cd skipping with Animal of the muppets vibe to it in my head … good theater of the mind exercise !!!
the violation is a certifiable classic but in terms of writing and production they've come miles since this album! have a listen to Fury and Carniverous Lamb from the Veleno album, genuinely one of my favourite albums of all time!
Allegaeon - The Dopamine Void (pt.1 + pt.2)
as far as more extreme songs go, this is one of my favourites, it mixes it up a bit and is more palatable than most.
This has been very much anticipated, finally, thank you! Fleshgod is an amazing band, i'm certain there have been plenty of people expanding on the band, i'll just say that they have a multitude of amazing tracks to listen to, for a variety of reasons:
The oppression, from agony, amazingly time-shifty fills
The egoism, from agony, an amazing track throughout
The first 3 songs from their mafia ep are all amazing
The betrayal, from agony, a drumming nightmare, an awesome track
And the vulture beholds, from king, amazingly epic orchestration
Towards the sun, from labyrinth, amazing orchestration, again
Epilogue, from labyrinth, showcases veronica more prominently
In honour of reason, from oracles, heavy as all hell
Pathfinder, from labyrinth, a great composition throughout. Although to be honest the entire labyrinth album should be listened to from start to finish
In all honesty i could recommend everything from them, but as a more unusual suggestion i would also say that you should check out their title songs for each album; oracles, mafia, agony, labyrinth, king and veleno. Each of them is a classical piano composition meant to embody the atmosphere and theme of each album.
