#BreakingBenjamin #NovelistsFR #Turisas
Your were actually right about INK for the most part. You just chose thei softest song. Lol
He even said Deathcore 😂😂
+1
@@collinputney2018 well they say merry axe-mass is very deathcore ish because lf the breakdown
Yup, literally the softest song in the entire album lol.
Stole my words 😂
I'm the newest member of INK.
i would not be disappointed
I’m the newest TH-cam sensation
And you play an axe?
Id be down
I notice you did not say that you are not an axe murderer. 🤔🤔😅😅😅
You weren't too far off with INK, they have songs way heavier than that.
Yeah but they’re not deathcore by any means. They’re metal core. Both are sub genres i personally love as well as INK. But they’re just not heavy enough. A lot of deathcore makes bands like Slipknot sound more like hard rock rather than metal.
Breaking Benjamin : "so i gues drop D?" Laughs in Drop A#
Well, they have a few songs in Drop Db though :D
@@StanSinitsky really? which ones?
@@FISHYFILMPRODUCTIONS the entire Saturate album, Away, Breakdown, Topless, Without You, Into The Nothing, What Lies Beneath, Give Me a Sign and Hollow.
I always thought hard rock was in E standard or in Eb but BB changed my opinion when I first listened to them a long time ago.
“If Andrew Baena was an axe murderer” 🤣😂🤣
I laughed at that way too hard than what I should have 🤣🤣
lolll fuck
@@DanSugarman it’s okay - I know who you are 😂
For the INK song, you picked one of their softer ones, for heavy I’d do communion of the cursed or merry-axemas
Seems like he just typed the name of the band on TH-cam and clicked on the top vid, which would be most viewed. Kind of how it goes with these types of videos tho.
@@richardbutkis true
I searched the top song on Spotify then watched it on TH-cam. Seems it’s not always the best example of a bands sound, Nothing Else Matters is the top result for Metallica for example but the vast majority of their music isn’t like that. I’ll pick a song at random if I do this again. Thanks for watching! :)
@@peteplaysmusic it was a good video! And I agree with what you said :)
Thank you so much for introducing me to Communion of the Cursed! I cannot stop listening to this awesome song!!!! Can't wait to find more from this band, after I have listened to this song a thousand times. I probably would not have checked out other INK songs after the one in this video without your comment.
Kinda unfair to Pete to do A Grave Mistake. He would've been spot on if it was Stabbing In The Dark or Your Number's Up.
Oh man Breaking Benjamin were one of the main bands that got me into playing guitar and singing! Phobia and Dear Agony were huge in my life as a kid/teen lol
Turisas, you got right. You happened to pick their cover of an old disco song, hence the disco ball, but they still turned it into a folk metal song so you were able to nail it anyway.
Hi Pete, it was probably mentioned before but here some quick notes on Novelists FR (btw FR stands for France where they come from and they added it to their name because of some 'legal issues'):
The band photo you showed was with their old singer Matteo, who planned to leave the band after their 2020 tour (which had to be dissmissed). The new singer Tobias was the singer of now departed german band Burning Down Alaska (later renamed Alazka) and Lost Cause is the first Novelists song with Tobias. If you know both bands you notice right away that Lost Cause sounds alot like old Alazka (a fact I don't know how to feel about yet). The old Novelists stuff is much more dark, melodic, progressive or djentier so to speak. I cannot recommend highly enough that you check out some older songs of them like Gravity, 5:12 AM, Monochrome, The Light the fire, A Travers Le Mirior, Somebody Else, C'est la vie or After The Rain
Feel free to like this comment so more can read it.
Now that you checked BB, you should definitely include them in your next "1 Riff 10/20 bands" series ♥
breaking benjamin is my all time favorite band. every single song he drops basically resonates with me on a spiritual level. and i think you got the impressions down pretty acurate for never listening to them befor only looking at the band members. i could feel some BB but it felt like the octave was a little off somehow.
Bro that is the most poppy ink song ahaha, you have to check out stuff like "the American nightmare" or "communion of the cursed"
Edit: "stabbing in the dark" is definitely the one to listen to, dunno how i forgot it ahaha
Also The Plot Sickens! Heavy AF
Communion of the Curse or Me Myself and Hyde or IT is the end... Probably their 3 heaviest
Cant forget one of their heaviest: Merry Axe-Mas
@@JimR26 me myself and hyde is way heavier, so is it is the end. Merry axemas is fairly tame
@@TechX1320 that guttural at the breakdown tho
You were super right about Ice Nine Kills, you just picked their poppy album single to check out. Stabbing in the Dark is basically exactly what you described.
Also for Turisas, the reason the video is in a disco club is because Rasputin was a pretty famous disco song a long time ago. Their version is a cover.
Yeah their Singer is called Benjamin. The Bands name came from their early Days. Benjamin borrowed a Mic from another Band at a Gig and broke it. The Real owner of the Mic then came on Stage and said "thanks for Bernjamin breaking my mic" since then he was called "The Breaking Benjamin" :D Most BB songs are Drop C actually :D
there are a few, but most are actually in Drop A#. Ben uses a baritone
@@FISHYFILMPRODUCTIONS most i learned up to day are dropc and a few drop b. but good to know
They use 3 tunings: Drop C#, Drop C, & Drop A#
Who cares, just another template band...
LOL Breaking Benajmin is one of my fav bands and they were popular i think...
NovelistsFR... i got to listen to this right now!
The epilepsy warning was awesome! I don't think I've seen somebody do that in their videos at all so that was cool!
Raising awareness for it and putting warnings in videos really goes a long way in showing people how serious a condition it can be
You were actually so close with Ice Nine Kills, listen to" It Is The End" they're dope
Shout out to Pete for not being sure how photosensitive epilepsy works but still having the mind to give the warning. That’s good stuff man, respect. Also wouldn’t be mad if you took some Breaking Benjamin songs and made them your own thing. Aaaaaand definitely check out more INK
Well, I was so wrong about most of these but at least I was closer this time! :)
Timecodes for the bands:
Breaking Benjamin: 0:26
Novelists FR: 3:01
INK: 5:27
Turisas: 8:22
I already love this series. Such a great idea
I don't know WHO or WHAT told you to introduce yourself to INK with the song "A Grave Mistake" (it's a great song but not what shows off their sound) but you should seriously consider listening to Stabbing In The Dark, Thank God It's Friday, IT Is The End, Communion Of The Cursed or sooo many other songs they got that are among the heaviest I've ever heard!! THEN WE TALK ABOUT CHUG
I chose the most popular song on Spotify of each band, I’ll choose a song at random in future though. Thanks for watching! :)
@@peteplaysmusic the issue with Spotify's "most popular" is it seems to be weighted by time. Newer material requires fewer listens to hit a higher position than older material - I've seen so many bands put out a new album, see their new songs fill their most popular, then they fall off just as quickly.
Not shitting on you but it BLOWS MY MIND that you've never heard BB. One of the biggest rock bands in the world for like 15 years. I was waiting for you be like like "just kidding I know all of their songs". Glad you finally discovered them! You'll love them!!
1:17 you just wrote a 1999 Avenged Sevenfold song lmao
i'd say that's the best way to describe Breaking Benjamin, "epic".
I know a better word: 'boring'
@@martinjakab you said the wrong word. Let me autocorrect that for you, “epic”.
If epic means boring, then yes
@@martinjakab poggers
The BB tone was pretty close a little chunkier but did not sound bad.
Novelists FR is a very talend band with his new singer and the older sound uff!! They have very good songs like Voyager or Echos :D. I waiting for the new album with the new singer.
Nice to see people checking out Turisas but the song is a representation of their earlier work (and a cover, too). They developed their style into something they call Battle Metal. Also they do have some epic, almost film-score like songs, as well as some really heavy, chunky pieces - my favourites being Cursed Be Iron and Greek Fire - check these two out!!! NOW! :D
I know you were mostly looking at the INK music video for the music, but I highly recommend that you go through and binge all their recent music videos when you have time. All the music videos from the Silver Scream album. They basically come together to make the equivalent of a horror movie. It's pretty wicked. They're one of my favorite bands cause of that cinematic element
Great video man! Glad you liked what we do!
❤️
Pete, to echo several other comments I really recommend checking out novelists older stuff - echos or antares come to mind. Their guitarist, Flo, is amazingly talented and the video you played doesn't begin to do him justice
Most soft ink song to pick. Check out let's bury the hatchet in your head
Nah, old ink isn't justice, it's like 2 different bands
@@TechX1320 personally think old INK was better. New still bangs, but I find myself listening to their earlier realises
I think you pretty much nailed Breaking Benjamin's sound.
Bro you were spot on with INK you just choose a ballad, listen to like The Jig Is Up or Stabbing in the Dark
You're the nicest person I've ever seen. Nicest epilepsy warning ever, just so polite
You definitely chose the right Breaking Benjamin song to start of with. And knowing their entire disography, you were very close. lol.
Novelists wasn't that far off either, the Djenty type. Personally I really love their song Gravity.
For INK I'd recommend The Fastest Way To A Girl's Heart Is Through Her Ribcage, IT Is The End, Hell In The Hallways, Communion Of The Cursed and Friday The Thirteenth.
I saw Turisas support Lordi in Glasgow about 14 years ago. A mate from Skye got half a dozen free tickets because he kept playing Lordi on the local radio station and his Saturday night rock show was syndicated to a lot of local radio stations in northern Scotland.
That particular song is a cover of the Disco classic Rasputin (originally by Boney M), hence the disco ball. Started as song they played live for fun and then decided to make a kick ass single out of it too. Metal covers of disco are often awesome (I've seen "Tragedy: The all metal tribute to the Beegees and beyond" three times)
Having a rainman memory moment - that gig (Lordi with Turisas) was November 2006, and I saw Motörhead a week later, with Iron Maiden the following month (the A Matter of Life and Death tour). These were the last gigs I went to with long hair as I got it cut short just after Christmas in anticipation of finishing University and needing to get a real job.
So you were wrong about Breaking Benjamin, but those riffs you came up with.. I LOVE IT! Who sounds like that? I want more!!
For INK checkout I.T Is The End, Merry Axemas, American Nightmare, basically any other Silver Scream song or their previous albums :D
I experienced culture shock when you said you were not familiar with Breaking Benjamin. Before I got into metal, BB were kind of shoved down our throats here in the US by every rock/alternative station. I have always liked them but I got sick of them after awhile until I gave up on radio period. I don’t typically go for reaction videos but I found myself kind of excited to see your reaction to this song, which is one of the best songs by them, if not the best one.
"Are they more on the heavy side of things or are they more radio friendly"
Yes
Finnaly Pete showed me bands I was hearing about but never actually listening. Thank you Pete!
The only thing that bothers me here is that you picked a german disco band (Boney M) cover from the 70's to represent Turisas.
Turisas made it in their own style for sure, but still it wasn't an original song from them. But that explains the disco ball at the start. :)
The opening song for The Varangian Way would've been a better pick.
I'm a simple man. When I see Breaking Benjamin's Logo, I'll watch that video 🤟🏻
Thanks for watching! :)
You have Halo on your Tv in the background and my first introduction to Breaking Benjamin was there song they did for the Halo 2 soundtrack “Blow Me Away”
haha try stabbing in the dark for ice nine kills and you'll see that you werent that wrong haha
i think the guys who send you the picture should also recommend a song
That’s a good idea! :)
fun local rumour about turisas's original harmonica player from a local. he was wellknown for his skills before his tenure in turisas. from what i heard why they had to replace him, was that he was a loose cannon while drunk, as he might after a gig wake up in a different city during a tour, last endeavours of his from beyond the years was a form of carnival band with firedancers and stuff. exentric but i still do respect him both for his legacy and his skills nevertheless.
0:35 “I think they were on the Halo 2 soundtrack, right?”
*Halo on in the background*
Pete, I think you should react to more than just one music video or do some research of the band afterwards. You were completely right about Ice Nine Kills and you didn't even realize lol. Great video tho.
Turisas is from Finland, and I'm too. Great band!
Yeah, for Ice Nine Kills, you chose one of their softest songs that wasn't just an acoustic song, lol
Novelists FR is such an insanely incredible band
Well, that Turisas song isnt exactly their only style. To Holmgard and Beyond is propably their most famed tune.
You chose one of the softest INK songs, but definitely one with the best solo! You’re not entirely wrong. American Nightmare or Stabbing in the Dark would be a good summation of their sound.
I love that solo, it was super tasteful and has awesome vibrato. Thanks for watching! :)
@@peteplaysmusic I really like the slidey things at the end. So much so that I’ve started to incorporate that into my leads 😁
Excellent video! I've discovered some new favourites here.
Thanks for watching! :)
Like everyone else is saying about INK,, "Stabbing in the Dark." Your playing is as tight as they get dude! Hails from Eugene Oregon!
I could not believe the song chosen for ice nine kills haha. Cmon mate
I'm your glasses, "please straighten me".
I should point out that Rasputin is actually a cover of a 1978 disco song by Boney M. hence the disco ball. The Turisas cover was a staple of Rock clubs back when I was in uni, along with Korpiklaani's song 'Vodka'.
1:14 he casually just played something that sounds like Simple Design
This is fun, like the series format 😁
Thanks for watching! :)
This was so entertaining! You were pretty much right about INK tho lol
Benjamin Burnley's signature series guitar is nasty. Baritone with dual output jacks for effects looping and multiple amp rigging.
Is he with PRS like in this video or is his signature with another brand? Thanks for watching! :)
@@peteplaysmusic esp single cut. Dream guitar of mine because its so versitile. The budget model is around 1200 the big boy is 6500 so itll stay a dream lol.
When I watch these videos, I'm like "how the hell has this person not heard of this HUGELY WELL KNOWN BAND?!?" Like breaking benjamin. Literally impossible to not hear at random
I genuinely hadn’t heard any of their songs except for that Halo 2 one. Thanks for watching! :)
@@peteplaysmusic I definitely believe you lol it just blows my mind sometimes. guess its usually just what's listened to around you by friends and such
For INK you chose their lightest song. They have some leave stuff. Really anything off the silver scream to start!
Well with ice nine you werent really wrong you just kinda choose one of their lightest songs. Listen to stabbing in the dark or merry axe mas. Then you wouldve gotten your answer. Btw when i saw ix pop up on my screen in one of your vids i was smiling with joy
Oh man, I haven't heard INK since high school.
The same for the song The Dairy of Jane.
“Weird start but we got there in the end” I need that tattooed on my body
Something to put on your tombstone.
Ahah wasn't that far with the Ice Nine Kills description, is just that they have a bunch of different stuff.
Maybe he could check more than one song as some bands can have various type of songs ;)
Edit: for the big fat chunk, definitly check "Thank God It's Friday", is definitly that, along with the low drop tune!
The tone of this guy is still so stunning
I had a girlfriend once, when she listened to Kid Rock she "wanted to break things". Long story short, she was drunk and punched me in the face.
We broke up.
Lol.
thank you for sharing this story
@@crb6852 you're very welcome. I hope it helps to prevent you from having a crazy bitch girlfriend like I did.
You chose Novelists' last release. You should really check out their previous works
Ben Burnley is the lead singer for Breaking Benjamin and their a killer live band!!
Thanks for watching! :)
This is amazing video!!!
Thanks for watching! :)
Ah man. You didn’t get to mine. You should do them next time. Slaughter Beach, Dog. They’re a great band
Bruuuuhhhhh Breaking Benjamin. You haven’t ever post grunged then.
It’s a good day when Pete and his amazing right hand blesses us with a vidjya
Thanks for watching! :)
That Halo in the background... nice
Dude , if you tricking us that you ever heardof DIARY oF Jane......
Getoutttahere......
novelists sounded exactly like i though they would
He listened to the wrong song to the general sound of I.N.K. And they do play in Drop A so you were right on that part
Breaking Benjamin are the kinda band to be in an early 2000s tv show about ghosts or demons or something
I mean you were spot on for INK... if it was any other song lmao. Like if you were to have got Thank God it’s Friday or a Reptile’s Dysfunction you would’ve been so proud of yourself
That's actually Ice Nine Kills' soft song. They usually are much heavier. Also that song's in Drop A lol
is that halo mcc on the tv in the background? a man of culture 👌
Haha thanks! I love Halo :)
Novelists used to sound way different man, better in my opinion, nonetheless, great video
Oof, turisas. Almost forgot about them, since they haven't released new music since like 2013 or something. They where my jam when i was 15.
C'est la Vie got me into Novelists
The guys that look the most heavy are usually the ones doing the softest music. Have you ever listened to Kiss?
Should've listened to Stabbing in the Dark for INK
You weren't off on INK. The song you chose just didn't reflect their core sound, which was most of what you described. It was one of their softer songs. A more representative song would be IT Is The End, Your Number's Up, Hell In The Hallways or The Communion of the Cursed.
don't mind me. i saw your thumbnail in my recommended and liked the colour of your guitar and wanted to know what it was. a Chapman 7 string of some description. okay.
My man missed all the heavy CHONKY INK
I´m shocked you didn´t know Novelists. You´ll have to check out more older stuff of them.
So...
You didn't know the song "Rasputin"?
Nope, I had no idea that was a cover.
I recommend actually checking out the whole Varangian Way album from Turisas. It's one of those practically perfect albums. Shame how shit their output's been ever since.
Man the beginning of that Breaking Benjamin song kinda sounds like Paralyzed by Dream Theater (I'm guessing it's also came out earlier)
Dyscarnate are a great band and they defenitely deserve more recognition. Maybe you could listen to them in the next episode of this series.
Greeting from Germany 🤘🏻
Love Novelists FR
you're not far off with INK for the recent album it's a blend between radio rock and metalcore
Yeah, last one was fun, bring it on 😄👍🏻
Thanks for watching! :)
