I didn't cry on my wedding, I didn't cry when I held my kids for the first time, but I had to wipe away some tears on this one. The sound is all I wanted from music over the last 10-20 years.
I feel you.
This........definatly this !!!!
NEW SONG IS EVEN BETTER
Honestly? One of my first reactions was "What took them so long?..."
same fucking shit to me, it's like they fulfilled my desires
This was made for melodeath fans, it's like a melodic death metal candy.
So good.
It is. And it's been so long since I've heard fresh good material in this genre -- yet here it is. A loveletter to the best days of melodeath.
Its more like a delicious cake with a pizza...
More please
*badass metal riff starts*
Tank's hat: *trembling in fear*
Mikael Stanne is easily my favorite vocalist, so stoked that these guys are working together
When I recognized the lead singer of Dark Tranquily and the guitarist of In Flames I thought: This is going to be awesome, and it really is.
You and I definitely share experiences when it comes to these guys. I also got heavily into Melodic Death Metal in my early High School years through bands like In Flames, Dark Tranquillity, Soilwork, At The Gates and Arch Enemy, and these bands shepherded me into the music I love today. In Flames and Dark Tranquillity were always the two at the top of the pile for me. I bought all of their albums and carried them with me everywhere. Without these bands, I would not have found Ensiferum and started my folk metal journey, or branched out into the Finnish scene and found Children Of Bodom, Norther and Kalmah, which gave me my love of Keyboards and Keyboard solos (which lead directly into discovering my love for Melodic Power Metal). These guys had a profound impact on my life, and I could not be happier that this project exists!
I made the same journey.
Same, man! Without these two bands, and a few others, I would have never discovered Children of Bodom and a lot of other awesome bands from Europe that I got into.
Same here mate, and as a Finn, it wasnt so difficult :D
I'm in the same boat aswell, the fact this is a thing just makes me so happy. mid to late 90's melodeath is the shit! Easily some of the best metal in that era!
hey dude, check out the new Coldbound album when it comes out. Features ex Ensiferum keyboardist Meiju Enho on analog synths
There is nothing better than watching a true fan react to new music, I'm with you on this one Tank sounds like old(ish) in flames with Michael's distinctive growl. Take care my friend 🤘🏻.
Im so hyped for this band
Haha best reaction ever when the song kicks in! Seeing you brought to tears brings ME to tears. This is pure happiness and the best that happened to the metal world since.. yeah, since Jesper left.
This brought a tear to my eye. Words can’t express how hyped I am to hear more
This brought me back to my late teens and early 20's hearing this. This sounds great and I can not wait to hear more of this! 🤘🤘
First metal bands that i listened?, Bodom, In Flames, Dark tranquillity, and many more. As a Finn, Swedish and finnish metal, surely was easy to find, i was so happy to see this band and all the members. And also happy that u finally viewd this ;). DT has always special part in my heart, Therein was song that i was listening when i heard friend on mine has died, still cant liste to that song without tearing
So good to see Jesper back in action ! The man in a legend and for me, one of my favorite riff makers of all time. Honestly it sounds a lot more like DT than IF, BUT it's just the first single so I'm really excited to see what comes next
Jajemen legenden ä en sjuhelvetes riffmaskin. Måste ha spelat mycket guitar hero.
Same here. Guy made the Melodic In Flames sound I love so much. I think the guy still struggles with Alcohol, but hopefully he can get out of it
It certainly has a Reroute to Remain feel about it. And that's fine by me because Reroute was a boss of an album. Cheers!
This was the best surprise/news of this whole f... Year, no competition. And you've perfectly expressed what i'm and a lot of other humans, who are into melodeath, are feeling when listening to this tack. Cheers
Dude your happiness in this video in infectious. So good👌🏼
I remember jamming “Lost to Apathy” on repeat through high school. And seeing In Flames in 2005 was probably the best live show I’ve been to. This is awesome.
Your initial reaction is literally exactly how I reacted to seeing this the first time. As a huge IF fan (tattoos and all) this makes me so happy. Brings back so many memories of every time I got the pleasure of meeting all of these guys!
I just heard this song the other day on Spotify and thought it was badass. I hit the "like" button right away. I had no clue there were members of In Flames in the band. In Flames is one of my favorite bands, so it makes sense that this bands sound immediately attracted me.
Your crying, I'm crying, we are all crying of happiness and euphoria. Keep Up The Good Work
Was rolling back through your vids and stumbled upon this one...No idea how I missed it a year ago. I love this album and Gateways is probably my fav song on it.
I’m so moved by your enthusiasm❤️ Dark Tranquillity was the first melo death band I heard as a teenager and the first chance to channel all those deep, angry and sad feelings and still beeing able to see the beauty in the same music. They were and always will be THE metal band for me. They showed that there truly is beauty and skill in the darker tones too.
I think we share the same excitement dude. I was shaking when I heard about this song! I grew up on this stuff, the melo-death of course, and am just blown away and so excited for the album! Great reaction, and fuck yeah to the head banging, I did it through the while song when I first heard it!!
It's like they r in our heads and know what we wanted to listen to again. This is a life changer. Thank you Jesper
Tack så faaaaaaan
This was absolutely awesome. This was such great news. Very cool to see these guys together again.
The fact you not only react to the Schtuff but also provide background information on the band/members is great! Subscribed!
This is sooo good! The Gothenburg bands has been in my life since my teenage years, i'm 37 now. Specially Dark Tanquillity that has a special place in my heart. You're right, this is kind of emotional indeed. Awesome channel Tank! Cheers from Sweden.
Haha Dude, your video placed me in such a good mood ! This band made me basically have the same kind of reactions you did have ! I'm extremelly excited as well about this song and the album that I can't stop listening to !
I have been w8ing for days to see your face/emotion on this video... the song is on repeat since release... absolute top old school melo-death banger!
You know, when Amorphis announced their new album (funnily enough named "Halo"), I immediately was like, "ok, race for best album of 22 decided, case closed". Then five days later, this monster of a song drops (and that they'd do this went completely under my radar), and I guess, case got reopened because of new evidence. This is just awesome, and while I generally prefer the finnish over the swedish bands, I might make an exception for this one. if only because Mikael Stanne just fucking slays. every. single. time.
some huge albums coming out!
And then Bling Guardian comes with their return to classic (Deliver Us From Evil). What a year!
@@antonrukin Yeah, Deliver us from Evil rocks. Put it in a little playlist together with Moon (the new Amorphis song) and Shadowminds", which is on constant repeat in my car now. ^^
Mikael Stanne is a treasure to us all!
I love your sincere and excited reaction mate! I had the very same reaction haha. When I saw the band members walk in I got insane goosebumps!
In Flames was my gateway into the Metal genre. Soundtrack to Your Escape was my intro when I was 13 In 2006. Absolute nostalgia overload.
Thank you for this Tank! 🤙🏼🔥you absolute legend!
I remember seeing In Flames live in 2004. This is the members I remember and miss. It's awesome to see them together again.
I really love that in other videos you toss your cap to the side or just let it fall but here you fucking yeeted it through the entire room. Shows how close home this music hits. Keep up the great work! Greetings from Germany.
Well, considering that also Stanne has been part of In Flames...it all makes sense!
I am with you on all of this. I teared up the first time I listened to it and thought finally!
RIP mic hahaha, yeah I got a lot hyped when they announced this band and they delivered. Amazing song and reaction.
I was never a fan of these two bands, but it is a pleasure to see a man or woman listen, headbanging and a lil'bit crying😉 to the heros of his/her youth!👍🏿
ONLY MUSIC make this happen!
One thing more when i saw the lead vocalist i thought..."hmm wait a minute 🤔 you know that face.....YEAH the voice of Hammerfall's early years!💡💡💡
So thanks for the info and LET'S GOOOO !!🇺🇲🤘🏿🇩🇪
I was crying as well when I heard it first. These guys were sooooo important in my late teens/early twenties, and all that was just coming back while I was listening to the song.
How did I not learn this was a thing until today!?!?!!? Jesper and Mikael are my favorite and the Gothenburg sound is what got me into metal back in the day
God damn , had the album on repeat since it dropped, but this reaction still get's me as pumped up as when I first watched it. Love it.
I live about 40 minutes away from Gothenburg. Growing up in the Swedish metal scene was fantastic. Both melodic death metal and black metal. And also Meshuggah! This brought a smile on my face. Nostalgia deluxe. Great review as always bud! ❤️
nice to see you so exited
Miss thoose old Members in In Flames... but love that they keep going with playing music😍👌
None of my friends where I live listen to metal, so it's great to have video like this to see someone else excited (and for me to learn a few things too)!
One of the things I love about you and your channel is your passion, excitement and information. Once again, you've introduced me to something that immediately goes on my playlist. Thanks for all you do, brother.
🤘🤘🤘
Honestly, we share the same sentiment. I literally found this band yesterday and they completely made my day! Seeing these legends together just about brought me to tears too! Haha my wife looked at me weird…
"You probably understand...like...you get it!" Ooooh yes, I get it. This is like a dream coming true. This special style one thought long forgotten resurface decades later, grabs you in the inner core and directly sparks that urge to headbang. 100% resonating with me.
Btw... this was the fastest "throw that hat into a corner and let that hair fly" I have seen so far from you.
Note to self: I should brobably grow a beard.
As someone who grew up in the cold north and blasting In Flames aswell as Dark Tranquility while walking through dark and frozen woods, this gives me nostalgia like you wouldn't even fucking believe.
It's like I'm 13 years old all over again, I fucking love it!
When I want to get excited and just feel good I re-watch your reaction because it always and I mean always brings a smile to my face. I was also this excited when I first heard of this band as a long time In Flames fan myself.
Again
First of all. Love your channel 🙏👍🤟. This is absolutely one off the best melodic metal bands out there right now. This song is so f*cking great that it give me goosebumps when I herd it 🤟🤟🤟
I had no idea this was happening and now I'm very happy it is!!! That Gothenburg sound coming back 🤤
This does sound more like DT than old school IF, which I would have preferred. We'll see with the full release of the album (I'm guessing there'll be one?)
Last night i had the opportunity and luck to watch live The Halo Effect in Stockholm and hang out with the band after the show. DO NOT MISS it if you have the chance, that was the best thing that happened to me after the birth of my son, it was a life changer, no words to describe the guys, they are so friendly, polite and humble
absolutely loved this entire video, especially when you started to headbang like nothing else mattered :'D super genuine feelings coming from you which was a delight to share. super stoked for the halo effect and whatever they may bring to the table!
Tank, i feel so much what you feel. The old music of In Flames, the Jesper periog, was my entire life. This rythm section, Daniel and Peter is very special. Wonderful duo. I also remember the GOTHIC EXPLORER of jesper. If i am not wrong, it was a Gibson explorer with EMG 81/60 pickups. This duo of pickups is also legendary :D
The first time I've seen you was this reaction a month or so ago. I love the enthusiasm
What the F&$^#?! Why the f^&$#?!?! How the F$^&*#% did I miss this release ?!
Holy shit, I have tears in my eyes.
YEEESSSS. This is gold. So good to see Jesper, Peter and Daniel again.
Yes, we all shed a tear 😭
Literally a dream come true
Duuuude I soo feel your excitement! Listening to that song just made me truly happy 🤘
I cried too... Genuine happiness 🤘
I don't think we've ever seen Tank throw away his hat with so much force and enthusiasm. :D
Love this video, love the music!
Holy crap! Thank you for an introduction to this band, the members, and their other projects. I have many albums to go listen to 🤘
Lucky you! Both In Flames and Dark Tranquillity have a rich history of work. :)
This legit made me tear up, im so fucking happy to hear this shit with so many of my favorite artists. Dark Tranquility made me abolutely love Screamo and Growl (I had been hating it for almost 10 years, then at 15 years of age i heard DT for the first time on Spotify and it opened my entire world! Peter Iwers has been with Jesper at CyHra aswell with Jake E (Former member of my alltime favorite band Amaranthe) And both of them are fucking amazing, Jesper gave me the middlefinger at their Sweden Rock debute and laughed at the same time which made my favorite Festival picture ive ever taken. And Peters restaurant is so friggin amazing that my tastebuds exploded with happines when i tried their food and beer. I dont have much to say about Danne and Niclas but i do love the music theyve made aswell. This is a true fucking SUPERGROUP!
Peter has reacted to this clip on Facebook now btw, Tank. He felt heartwarmed about your genuine reaction
I saw that! So unbelievably awesome!
@@TankTheTech I reccon since hes one of your idols! Keep up the awesome work Tank!
@@kim98881 Where on Facebook is this?
I'm late to the party on this one I've heard in flames and like their music but didn't know the band members. However though I was less familiar with dark tranquility I did get a chance to see them live in 2018,so when I watched this video for the first time I thought that looks like the guy from dark tranquility,but wasn't sure till you said so. I love this song.
This is just awesome. I have been waiting for something like this for years. Í have been an IF and DT fan since 1997. Sadly lost interest in IF after Come Clarity. But this makes me so happy. Getting tickets for the Stockholm show is an absolute must. GBG Melodeath at its finest!
Me and my cousin where heavy in to In Flames when growing up. driving to school in the middle of winter here in Norway. Not one day with out In Flames on full blast.
Looking forward to every album release for years!
So happy that they made this happen, can't wait for an album!
I mean, the fact that you live in Norway is badass enough, let alone listening to In Flames in the Norwegian winter. 🤘🏼Cheers from the UK
So good to see someone sharing my excitement dude! This is fucking epic.
I believe this came up in my suggestions and it is fucking KILLER!! I LOVE LOVE LOVE this song so much I have it on repeat like 10 times a day. Amazing lick and riffing. Amazing drums, bass and vocals. And now that you told me that they are going on tour with 2 amazing bands, my day can't get any better. I am soooo siked! Let's hope that the C virus restrictions are done by then. Thnx for the reaction, I pretty much had the same reaction as you haha! Cheers from The Netherlands! Greetz, Imke.
The band name comes from a Rush song called Halo Effect on their final album Clockwork Angels which is pretty awesome since I heard they're huge fans of the band. Love the song they put out it's kick ass.
I am so stoked to see Daniel playing again.
Same.
Got to see them perform 3 weeks ago and they are so underrated. Those who know though, know these are going to blow up! Such nice guys too and Daniel and Peter make great beer. Gateways is awesome! 🤘🏻
I'm usually very picky with whose harsh vocals I like and whose I don't. Won't give examples to not start useless discussions.
But damn, Mikael's voice is damn close to perfection!
good vid man, always loved the melodeath sound
Here because Peter shared your Video on FB. Great to see other guys have the same emotions i felt :D
I honestly feel so honored that he shared that. Super cool moment! Thanks for checking it out!
I've watched this clip of yours at least half a dozen times, due to the most genuine "kid in a toy store" reaction of all reactions ever made. Just makes me happy.
Pure and honest joy cannot be faked.
Omg, I can't believe this...
Dark Tranquility is back 🖤💯
Dark Tranquility never went anywhere. 🤘
@@TankTheTech
Yeah but the constellation is so freaking awesome that I feel this is Dark Tranquility from the past 😂
Yes bro, we understand!!
The Halo Effect picked up where In Flames left off. Around the Reroute to Remain era and I FKN love it. So happy to see Daniel , Peter and Jesper together again having fun. And Nick and Michael added 🔥🔥🔥 chefs kiss.
This went under my radar... I feel complete. Thanks for bringing them to me Tank!
Yesterday these guys were confirmed as participants at Sweden Rock Festival 2022.
YES
@@TankTheTech I'll be there!
I was bit nervous how this will turn out but first taste is a real banger, best songs of the year.
I'm late to the party, knew nothing about this until about 7 hours prior to me writing this.
I have a Google Home speaker with a screen I listen to music on while I'm at work, so its not unusual for me to discover new stuff I really dig... This was different. The moment I heard the vocals, I thought "why does this sound like the vocalist from Dark Tranquility" so I began digging into the history of the project before even finishing the song.
I didn't even grow up around melodic death metal, only discovered it a little over 10 years ago now, but it remains my favorite genre that exists through countless discoveries later.
This makes me ecstatic beyond words - I was already planning on flying to Europe for the Parkway Drive/While She Sleeps show, and then I saw they were playing with Amon Amarth/Machine Head right at the same time... My excitement has never been higher.
2022, LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
As a fellow melodeath fan growing up in Sweden listening to In Flames, At the Gates, Soilwork, Dark Tranquillity and Amon Amarth to name a few this brings me so much joy.
That's why I love ur Chanel, so much Background Information 🤘🏼
I absolutely love your reaction because u were so excited and into it..I was exactly the same man..inflames is one of my all time favourite bands..love ur channel man keep it up ur awesome
Your reaction summed up my feelings perfectly. I got very emotional watching this video for the first time. If you weren't there, if you weren't a fan back in the day, you may not realize how big of a deal this is. Seeing these five guys together is so unbelievably heartwarming.
Well, that's just about the break from reality I needed right now - music has always been what gets me through harsh times (aside from my family and the choice few friends) and so plug my ears and crank my music I will - the current situation here Germany is just about driving me completely bonkers -.- And this'll absolutely end up on my list as well 🥰
Sooooo good! 🤘🏻Can’t wait to hear more of this.
Edit: ”Holy *beeping beep*!” pretty much covers it. 😁
Tanks reactions are awesome. Such a genuine guy, man . 🤘 keep banging bro, I love your channel and content🤘.
This song is a fucking banger. So pumped to hear more from them. The Gothenburg stuff (and melodeath in general) was what got me into heavier metal in high school. Bands like In Flames, At The Gates, Soilwork, Amon Amarth, etc. And I haven't really been a fan of more recent In Flames stuff. This was a treat.
waiting for such music since the 90s .... i almost had to cry ...
It's been quite a few years since I was this excited about new music. Last time that comes to mind was when The Crown came back from the dead and released Doomsday King and/or when At the Gates went from just doing reunion shows and released At War with Reality.
I was deployed when I first got wind of this band, and I didn't have the means to look into it. I was loosing my mind trying to get info and hear the singles. Your reaction is pretty spot on. This group has some crazy potential to really reinvigorate that sound we've all been missing.
Its feels like being reuinted with old friends
It’s so true, if you don’t know the Gothenburg scene you will never understand how much this means to us… what a fucking win
Mikael is also lead singer of grand cadaver , this is a masterpiece in the making. 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Happy to see you happy Tank, these guys are fire
In Flames We Trust 🤘
Can't wait to hear more from them!
The last time i was this excited for an upcoming album, was with SLAYERS Seasons In The Abyss.
This is a proper smörgåsbord if I've ever seen one. All of my childhood heroes playing together in the genre that got me into metal for real. A lot of tears of pure joy have been shed over the last couple of weeks.
