Thank you Nik! We knew this song was going to surprise a lot of people! maybe you like the next one better ;)
Hi :)
I liked it
Great works guys! somethings different in a good way!! i fucking love this song
Never listened to this band. I like it
Love the work! Next reaction should be LANDMVRKS!
I wasn't expecting the Alazka vocalist to step in. That's a welcome surprise.
Me either but I'm stoked
Wait, THATS WHO HE IS!?
I love alazka man.
Alazka music is amazing
Flo's solos are ridiculous. Some of the best in the metal game by far.
this one was pretty standard though, not that impressive compared to his others
@@athmaid I was generalizing his overall solo ability. I wouldn't consider this standard, as it flowed with the melody well. This wasn't a banger, so anything too technical may not have worked.
@@athmaid maybe not technicality-wise, but damn it was tasty
Always loved Tobias as a vocalist. Love his raw emotional tone. It's sick to hear him singing too. Glad so many people are hyped for this
I was really sad when Alazka split up - they used to follow me on Instagram and I met Tobias on the never say die tour. I felt quite the personal connection with em (and Kassim had one of the best voices I’d ever heard), so it really hit me. And when Matteo left Novelists, I was hit again. He was unbelievable, and in tandem with the incredible solos, he made the band stand out. Crushing lows and stunning cleans - but it was not meant to be.
This song absolutely banged, the best merging of the two bands that could have been - an evolution of Novelists’s sound with Alazka’s spirit in tow. Tobias has become something truly special - his cleans have improved so much, and this new direction is seriously fresh. There’s hope yet for these glorious lads.
Where’s Kassim nowadays?
@@shawnkurtisTV I want to know as well! Imagine if he stepped in for cleans in Novelists now :O
Not sounding weird but everytime a solo from Novelists starts playing it hits me so hard tears drop no cap lol
The old vocalist is in a new band now, Sal3m. Their stuff is pretty sick, and you should check it out!!
thnx for the heads up
Will definitely check them out!
Damn, thanks.
@joseph ka wow, so you believe in fairytales? So you still believe in Santa and the Easter Bunny too? You do know that the only reason you believe in your religious views is due to your geographic place of birth? Let's say you, yes you, were born in Iran, your religious views would be passed down from generation to generation, so Islam would be your religion. Now let's say you were born in Australia before the colonization by the English. You would be Aboriginal and believe in the dreamtime. Religion is just as real as anything fictional bedtime story, pasted down from generation to generation.
Please get facts if you going to comment on a amazing track, by an epic band, on a incredible guitar players reaction video. Your rhetoric is completely toxic to this world.
@@myauramusic well said brother👍🏻
Love this, vocals blend well with the style, electronics are smooth, punchy breakdown, incredible solo
I enjoyed old Novelists stuff but I like that they're riding the prog wave and mixing up their sound. Step up in songwriting quality
nah, 2 steps back imo... not all changes are an improvement by default
Looove tobias' vocals. So sad alazka disbanded, the were one of my all time faves, but I can't wait for this album
Hell yes!!! I was so damn excited about this too. These guys never disappoint! This track kinda changed their direction a teeny bit, but it's a banger af! Loving it!
Always enjoyed their new vocalist when he was in Burning Down Alaska / Alazka. The only time I heard him doing cleans was when the recently added clean vocalist left and they did a couple of singles before calling it a day. I really hope he’ll use more range screaming wise. Matteo has those crushing lows which I’ll miss for sure. But I know he’s a good vocalist, lets see how this will turn out on the other new tracks. Hopefully we’ll hear more next month.
NIC PLEASE START REACTING TO “”THE UNGUIDED”” nighttaker, never yield, daybreaker, crown prince syndrome, etccccccccc amazing sweedish band!! The lastest album FATHER SHADOW is insane!!
Florestans solos are some of the best shit ever written, by anyone. They're all so fucking good
Oh man. I respect the honesty in your opinion Nik, especially with knowing the guitarist personally, but Novelists have been one of my go-to bands for years now. I too became was very accustomed to Meteo's voice, as well as those super unique and fun Antares/Lichtenberg Figure/The Light, The Fire type riffs, but this new-ish sound paired with the new vocalist blew me away. All of 2020, I have been on top of nearly every new release among metalcore bands, and this one is #1 for me. It has been on replay since they premiered it, and it will be well into 2021. I know I'm a little late to this one, but as always, love all the content and keep fuckin' shredding 🤘
Okay, so, Novelists became a hugely significant part of my life everyday about 5 years ago in one of the worst periods of my life so far. Without being too dramatic, they kinda did save my life in that being able to listen to them made me feel less alone with my dark thoughts and distracted me from suicidal thoughts on several occasions. I just connected with the music and unusually for me, the lyrics as well. When i heard Mateus was leaving, i was worried that connection i had with the band would be lost. I'm gonna be honest, this wasn't a "bad" piece of music per se, the individual parts, instrumentally were as usual well written, however i feel like the structure and flow of the song didn't really make sense and seemed chaotic. This new vocalist, i like his voice, its certainly not turning me away but its definitely going to get used to not hearing Mateus' unique tone. EDM part was...Ehhhh, again, could be just getting used to it like the vocals. Keen to hear what else they've got, but i really hope the general novelists sound is still being maintained even without Mateus. Unfortunately for me this was not even close to being as emotionally charged and evoking as Mateus era. 7/10 for me. But i'm not just gonna fob these guys off after their first new release :) Enjoyed the hell out of your reaction as per usual Nik, thanks for being a positive influence on my life sir :)
Dude you couldnt have say it any better, Novelists was also a big key piece in my everyday life so I was kinda sad when Matt announced that he was parting ways with the band. Although I like new the new singer old band Alazka, he being in Novelists Its doesnt feel the same but lets see on what they come in the future I guess.
Antares was my first with them
Damn, very generous score. 5/10 for me.
Same. Souvenirs album just spoke to me. Had the exact vibe I was looking for back then.. and was hooked ever since. I like their newer stuff but nothing will ever hit as good as souvenirs
So. I'm old, and while my playlists are eclectic, I missed out on a whole genre of music by losing my self back in the 80s for the past few years.
So I need to say THANK YOU for introducing me to "new to me" bands n' stuff.
FUCK ME THAT WAS ONE OF THE MOST BEAUTIFUL GUITAR SOLOS OF THE YEAR 😍😍 chills for days !!
Funny how Nik knew the instant the solo was gonna hit. A true Novelists connoisseur.
Interesting direction for this band! Been following them since the first album, can’t wait to hear more new stuff from them.
Aviations - Outliers. You need to hear this song my dude. Metalbirb and Galactic Criminal have done a reaction so far, and I strongly feel that every metal reactor out there needs to hear this song and needs to help bring this band the exposure they deserve.
I agree! Aviations are amazing and should be more well known.
Big truther
Definitely
Agreed
Yep
I've literally just listened to the song and here you are reacting to it ! Really happy to see a French band get more and more international recognition. Sad to see Mattéo go but Tobias is just so talented I think they made a great choice
I still prefer their old sound but this is pretty good too, Tobias is a great replacement as well, talented vocalist. Also Nick, please do check Matteo's(the old vocalist) new band called Sal3m, they sound great. I'm super pumped for new music from both Novelists and Sal3m!
Omg that Of Beauty and Rage pic is siiiick
@@arzakconnel Thanks, Red is my favorite band since 2010 and Of Beauty and Rage is also my favorite album.
@@Ecstas345 ahah same, Of Beauty and Rage is still swinging in my car. A bit disappointed by Gone but a lot more satisfied by Declaration though
@@arzakconnel I personally enjoyed Gone(with the exception of that unstoppable cover) but I can see why some people were a bit disappointed by it, still better than Release the Panic though, although I do think that even that album was decent, just bad by Red's usual standard. I also agree that Declaration was pretty great, a comeback to the old Red but overall heavier.
After Howard vs Jesse, now we have Matteo vs Carmile.
My favourite song is now Mourning For The Dawn.
The heavy sections have a Make Them Suffer vibe. I loved old novelists stuff but I also like this sound a ton!
That's my boy Tobias from ALAZKA (Burning down Alazka) :D
So happy he got the spot in Novelists atter Alazka wrapped it up! Love Tobi's style and cant wait to hear more
Well with oceans eating them, that place must be really fucked.
Really loved that tonal change in the second verse. That and the solo were my favorite parts
I feel like this is one of the soft tracks, like À Travers le Miroir. Bets on the next single being a banger
I was very sad when Alazka had to split up 🥀, I love the combination of Tobias scream and powerful Kazimir vocal.
But boy, Tobias clean in this song 👍🏽
Are we going to get the Termina album before Christmas? Also you should react to Before I Turn-Sleep ft currents vocalist. Totally just spaced out his name, holy shit!
Yoo im ready for this. Let's go nik!!you always got the bangers!!!
Man, this new vocalist have such a insane mainstream sound to him, its insane. Fantastic replacement.
ANYONE MISSING MORE OF MATTÉO'S MUSIC:
.
I recommend checking out a band called: A Call To Sincerity. This was his first band, before joining Novelists. They have one album only. Now, interesting thing about this, is that I actually found out about Mattéo's potential as a singer through this band. And I remember that this was around 2014-2015 maybe. In any case, this band was no longer around when I found out about them. Then through a quick research I learned of Novelists through the song "Immedicable", and that was it. Instantly was hooked and it became one of my favorite bands of the genre.
.
Putting this aside, props for Tobias in joining the band. I wasn't really into Alaska's music, although I recognize they had talent. Great Flo and the other members managed to replace Mattéo w/ someone at his level (still prefer Mattéo though lol).
I fucking love novelists and can't wait to hear what's next with their new singer
That was great man. And now do the reaction on Ember Falls - We Are Become Fire. It´s awesome, the best Metal I´ve ever listened to, they really leave everything behind with that new song and I really listen to a lot of great Metal, including some from your reaction vids. XD
How about a sick cover of this one, the solo looks like so much fun
Im fucking in love with this song. Love this direction
That's why I love Nik, never heard that band before, now I'm buying their cds 😂
This was some of the best news in the music world since the end of Alazka. Novelists was already a favorite band of mine, but with the addition of Tobias I am SOOOOO happy right now.
I've never listened to these guys before this. Fucking hooked
opens video:
*Nik mimicking writing*: Novelists
*closes video*
Haven’t seen a single funny intro yet
Amazing band and love that they have Tobias in on vocals, he was unreal in the old Burning Down Alaska.
lol "The EVIL chord"
You should check out outliers(reimagijed) By aviation, awesome prog metal!
I could listen to that solo all day, my favorite part of the song.
This is an interesting sound change and I would come back for more. But nothing they've put out compares to their first full length, "Souvenirs".
For me Matteo was what made this band special unfortunately. That's still good, but there's nothing standing out. Also this song is really a patchwork of unrelated parts, I miss something making this smoother
Yeah, loved the electronic build up to the break down, but then the chorus felt so out of place (and i'm not a fan of this chorus, I think it's the biggest issue with this track because the outro with the solo was cool)
yes, just yes.. i totally agree!
I feel like the guitar work has always stood out the most from this band, florestans kinda a god but the unique vocal was also a huge part of it, I still like the new song but I hope that the next songs aren't following this style too much lol, I wanna hear way more tasty riffs
Love the Northlane PFP
@@blacklotus2136 thx 😉 I love this band
Flo has always been the heart of the band. I do notice the vocals is different its not bad but this is just one song, i believe and hope the vocalist will give us, fans, a tricky surprise. As long as its still Flo doing the guitar stuff, for me its still the Novelists i know.
yo nik! you should react to “dont wade in the water” by the amity affliction if you haven’t listened to it yet!
Ooh I like it. Grooves and smashes
Honestly... I hated the fuck out of it at first, but after listening on repeat I absolutely love it. It was just so different from what I was accustomed to from the band, but I'm glad I gave it a chance cause I'm super excited to hear what else they got in store
whoa this was very unique and beautiful all in all
Fuckin awesome band. You're on point using flavorful to describe the solo. 🤘👁🤘
LPOM - One cup of happiness or Digital Cramps...
They are a couple and the drummer is the singer
Very cool song never listened to these guys before, enjoyed the song though put a smile on my face after a shit day at work :)
As someone with PTSD and Bipolar Depression, I get the chorus and it speaks volumes. Not all wounds are visible.
I need to learn that solo! it's so fucking beautiful :')
i dig it for how different it is. i think they are trying to read whats going on with how other bands are embracing a pop presence
Holy shit!! That breakdown was way heavier than I was expecting
Would love a reaction to one of the two new Dreamshade songs Nick! Great stuff as always.
Great review. Thanks for being honest about it and not kissing ass. I really enjoyed your style on this. My first visit to your channel, Nik. Take care!
I’m digging the Sam vibes from the new vocalist
Their new vocalist is from the band ALAZKA! They were one of my favorite bands and I’m heartbroken that they broke up
Nik, I have a suggestion for you:
You should react to some songs from a band called A Metaphor for Betrayal.
They’ve got some Heavy bangers.
Nik can you cover Worthless by Lost Society? There are currently 0 covers of it on youtube since they are a smaller band that would be really cool!
Still getting use to it, the vocals mainly, mmm and I felt a little lack of what Novelists FR is recogized of, their riffs and melodies... Hopefully we can hear more of what was missing in my opinion in this first experimenting song. Other than that, It´s just great to see them back in the road, but that is my final conclusion. Great reaction monster!
This is incredible
Wow this song had me from the very start amazing
I freaking love this song
Holy fuck I am SO EXCITED FOR THIS ALBUM.
Since they somehow sounds like JRock-y, you might wanna check out Fear And Loathing in Las Vegas and Man With A Mission. Thanks, Nik. Hopefully you'll be able to notice this 😁😁😁
The solo is just too delicious. I cant get enough of it.
Nice vid man i liked their new sound. Also check out the new hacktivist song.
hey man, check out the new songs from diamonds to dust! The names are "Corpus christi" and "silance is also suicide". They are awesome!
I love it, finally something different
This song was sssooooo good especially with the electronics
man this song is just so so good ❤️
I'll just appreciate the burning down alaska that we had and the novelists we had and enjoy what this new band of similar name brings
This song is awesome.♡ gets you in the feels everytime.♡
Your reaction to this says a lot of what I felt hearing this song, I am hoping for more improvements though.
nik looks more energetic and happy. is it novelists or did you get enough sleep?:D
holy shit this was a banger!!
Straight to the list
“ Novelists FR ”
Next you should do Fleshgod Apocalypse.
Was really pleasantly surprised with this song, been a huge novelists fan and was worried when their original vocalist left, but this is awesome!
You should react to UK teenage death metal band Beyond Extinction, they released a new song God Complex, you'd absolutely love it.
Stay metal Nik 🤘
Love this new track 🇫🇷
Solo part awesome!!!!!
This was dope af
I loved this new song. It’s different, but as a huge fan of the vocalists old band, Burning Down Alaska/ALAZKA, I really love this new song. You should check out his former band
First yes. The riffs were omnipresent. And the thing i loved with matteo is that he s so versatile . As much as he could go low and high in both scream and cleans like his roque side of clean vocals is what put them where they are now mostly now they kinda sound like any other catchy metal core band but .. they missed out on personnality.. BUT that breakdown was super original tho
Interesting song! Very versatile and powerful.
This song hit me in the heart
I'd love to see metal guitarist reacts to
K-ON fuafua time.
Wtf did I just watch? I LOVE it!
OMFG it's tobias!!!! I was not expecting that!!!
song is gorgeous
Never heard this band before, really cool!
If you could do a reaction for Mask of Judas - Mesmerist, that would be amazing! The solos are incredible and great vocalist!
So surprised to see Tobias step in but he has some serious pedigree for screams. Did not realise how good his cleans were.
Yo Nik! Could you check out Severances - Opportunist or Tyrants - Fear? I've just discovered these two songs today and they are fucking great! I'd love to see your reaction to them
