OK. Judson's ready for some Mgla now!
100%
Yes! Exercises In Futility V...what a contrast lyrically that would be
And then maybe some Uada
@@joshuacanipe7688VI is always good introduction, V maybe drumm cam but not as a first song
Ja, es ist MGLA-Zeit
Hail MGLA
Haven't read through the comments, probably someone has already posted the cliche joke about this band, but it is so good I am posting it anyway:
Batushka are so into orthodox christianity metal, they even have their own Great Schism.
😂
What you're telling me is that from three black metal songs, Judson understood one of the core tenets of black metal? This man was born to be a black metal fan. He is spot on about black metal. Black metal is primal, mystical, and ancient. Folk music, particularly dark folk and neofolk, genres heavy on themes of nature and ancestry, blend so amazingly with black metal. Black metal is music you feel in your bones.
This man definitely needs some Bathory, Agalloch, Ulver, Windir, Enslaved, Paysage D'Hiver, and Summoning in his life.
my friend reading bathory/agalloch already feels really good 😊
GOTTA do some Agalloch! When I was first dipping my toe into Black Metal, "The Mantel" was the album that FULLY enraptured me in the feel of BM. They're such a good ease into the sound of BM but also deliver great things to those that already know BM.
Batushka is top tier! 🌀🌀🌀👍👍👍
Auf jeden fall ja
Meh band, plenty of better BM bands out there imo. They took orthodox motifs and prayers which is cool idea but the BM parts really sucks. And live you can really feel that its one guy surrounded by session musicians, no energy present.
I liked how Judson immediately began to play the song by ear after listening to it.We need a full cover of this song performed by Jutson.
Beautiful speech about black metal's nature by Judson.
Yeah he nailed it, at least for the atmospheric subgenres of black metal. And shout out to distorted tremolo guitar riffs for having such innate harmonic beauty, power and complexity.
Wow, never heard of Batushka, but a few seconds in and I knew I was gonna like it!
Yes, I highly recommend it including Lux Occulta "Dionysos", or with an incredibly different black metal performance, such as "My Guardian Anger".
Batushka is awesome.
Batushka is Krzysztof Drabikowski, the solo founding member. "first quarter of 2015, Drabikowski proceeded to compose and record the music, write the lyrics, paint the artwork for the album and create the band's overall concept by himself"
Anyway
Time for some MGLA, something off of "Exercises in Futility"
Very sad but lost all interest after all that BS. Love that first album and saw them in I guess 2018 before all this controversy. Great live
True, Krzystof's Batushka is the real Batushka. Fuck Bartłomiej Krysiuk, who sold his ass to Metal Blade Records for a few extra bux.
I would say anything from with hearts toward none.. Especially III.
Literally, and Krzysztof Drabikowski, when creating the concept of batushka, had a moment of giant insight when he realized, there is something very somber in the aesthetics and atmosphere of the Orthodox religion, in its clothing, in its churches, in its rites, how mystical everything sounds in the old Slavic language.
That's the great thing, that it creates a shock in your head. The same thing happens in countries in our West where we see and are rooted in Catholic Christianity and its connection with having corpses, starting with the figure of the martyred cross and its saints or in some cathedrals (I remember as a child being afraid of going to a cathedral and knowing that there was an archbishop and his open coffin where people worshipped) it can be understood that there is something very disturbing in religions that preach celestiality
That the founding member of Batushka has channeled that, mixed with music (black metal) that is known to be very Nietzschean in its way of putting the individual and his will above everything and having inverted the Orthodox Christian chants for an I (which would be God who is telling you the lyrics) and showing it as a narcissistic, arrogant being and saying that God implicitly is a monster and that human beings are only an instrument for his worship, is what the first album of batushka a genius work
hands down to Krzysztof Drabikowski, he found a way to stretch the limits of black metal without bastardizing the canonical foundations of this genre of music
Black metal (in case someone needs a map of understanding and wants to get into this extreme genre of metal)
- it's visceral, to the bone (because it has clear influences from hardcore punk d-beat and other bands like sodom, celtic frost, hellhammer, etc)
- atmospheric
- transcendental
- dark
- Born from many artists with introverted personalities who in some way (neurologically speaking) through their were showing the most instinctive of what's in their brains about the direct link with nature and being in the wilderness
- Edgy at times, but it doesn't lie to you about the organic nature of its music
- There's that thing that makes you feel powerful when you listen to the songs (listen for example the middle part of "khatariaan life" code by darkthrone)
Amazing as always, guys! I love the post-song conversation and hearing your perspectives
this record fucking rocks, the follow up record from the real batushka -- БАТЮШКА - Панихида (you can literally type this or copy/paste it on youtube/spotify/whatever and it will come up) is super good too, listening to the other records both iterations have put out since this original record, it's pretty easy to tell where the brains behind this stuff came from.
ooooh shit i didn't knew that "new" name, thanks!
This album is great. If this is the type of metal Judson likes. You might show him some Caladan Brood. They have an interesting style and lore to their music based on one of the greatest fantasy series ever written, Malazan Book of the Fallen. Or Agalloch.
Also, eagerly awaiting a Vektor reaction sometime.
The list goes forever.
Agalloch - shadow of pale companion would be a glorious reaction
Caladan Brood - Wild Autumn Wind! I have requested this before on the channel as well, on their reaction to Grima - Siberian Sorrow
Yaay, found a fellow Bridgeburner! First in, Last out brother!
@@pratyushbzr I have seen her face, She does not speak
She does not weep
She does not know me
For I am but a stone fitted in place
On the bridge where she walks

~ Toc the Younger
@@6ic6ic6ic gives me chills everytime
I looooove Batushka! It is a trip through the hell.
I agree on that certain kind of black metal feels primordial and profound. Like it’s been around long as classical music. But it would have been banned. I am a composer myself of the band HEDON from Sweden. It’s black metal(ish) I hate to put a genre to it totally because I write much on a acoustic from the start
Cheers
You need to listen to Gaerea! One of the best Black Metal bands nowadays! Great reaction!
Welcome to BM family Judson
You nailed it on the head
BM is more musical than other subgenres
saw them in Poland while on holiday there. Got so drunk I can't remember how I got back to the hotel, a beer was like 1.50 british pound after currency exchange
That's a brit in Poland alright, who needs to remember a concert when beer's cheap
@townazier I'm actually italian 😆 but I live in UK
@@marcotaf6744 Huh maybe its just something about the depressing UK that does that to people 😅
@townazier must be something in the air. I don't even drink much to be honest, that was just a holiday mood thing I guess
Emperor! Let’s gooo!
Elegy of Icaros to start him easy?
@@XtopherBryson I was thinking I Am the Black Wizards or Thus Spake the Nightspirit, he he…
Ye Entrancemperium
I think The loss and curse of reverence is one of the most interesting metal songs for a musician
In The Wordless Chamber
Windir 🙌
@@Heavydayz yes! 🌀🌀🌀👍👍👍
@@cranboogie Haha didn't know you were a Windir fan as well!
@@rolsen1304 yeah, I’m into different heavy styles of music 🌀🌀🌀✊✊✊
This was my introduction to these as well. Pretty interesting stuff. Would love to hear you guys take on Moonsorrow. One of the epics (Tuleen Ajettu Maa!) if you'd like a challenge
I'd love to see you do Tupelo by Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds. It's an early Bad Seeds song about the birth of Elvis and his twin, and the way they incorporate weather into the song is awesome. I think you'd both enjoy it - plus the hometown connection!
That was sooooo damn good!!!! Thanks for the discovery !!!
Deathspell omega is a band with a lot of contemporary classical references. Paracletus is a good starting point
greetings FROM POLAND !!!!! :D
Glory to Poland
Windir might be a good next band in this line of atmo black metal.
for a subgenre known for its purists about the trve kvlt sound, black metal as a genre really is a great base for many different additions, over the years all kinds of crossover projects cropped up and now i think there's some kind of black metal for just about anyone that is into the whole guitar based music
yup, black metal has had a explosion in creativity happen continously for 30 years, unbeknownst to most people who never dip their toes in deeper metal waters.
This comes from the first batushka album that was released and produced before the split - it is played by both guys who later came into conflict. There is literally plenty of extremly good other Polish black metal bands, some of them experimenting with the genre in interesting ways. Furia, Mgła, odraza, kły, piołun, yfel 1710, morowe, Blaze of Perdition to name just the hugely succesfull ones from the new wave of BM in Poland
When Judson plays piano after the song ends is always amazing. Amazing channel
I actually really dig the screechy vocals juxtaposed with the sorta operatic singing! Who'd a thunk it?
All music is about Atmosphere, but some metal genres are about it more than others, and Black Metal is generally more about it than many others.
Everytime someone raises their eyebrows at Black metal I usually compare it to meditating near a giant waterfall. All those noises just blend together and creates this whole thing.
Great pick, that debut Batushka album is killer!
Considering the fact that Judson really like the epic, "big" feeling black metal sound, I think you should play him some Windir. I wonder if he might enjoy songs like "Ætti Mørkna", "Fagning", "Heidra", "Journey to the End" or "Todeswalzer".
Very epic and atmospheric
Can't wait for like 3 months from now when you start showing him Deathspell Omega
Carnal Malefactor lets go
Nice! I figured Jud would dig them heheh. I highly recommend these Black Metal tunes to check out:
- Sinmara "Within the Weaves of Infinity"
- Zarathustra "Towards Perdition"
- Aosoth "Ritual Marks of Penitence"
- Wiegedood "Svanesang"
- Dumal "Lost Caverns"
- Nightbringer "I am the Gateway"
- Xasthur "Screaming at Forgotten Fears"
- Belphegor "Angel of Retribution" (more blackened death but still, its Belphegor and they rip haha)
классная мощная песня 🤘🤘
I just ordered this vinyl off a guy in Finland, whole album is so good!
11:57 love this, in piano is wonderful!
HE LIKES IT !! This is such a win !!
Another great music band, this time from Poland. Here we can find excellent bands, such as Mgła, but also no longer active, and I highly recommend Lux Occulta, for example with the album "Dionysos", or with an incredibly different black metal performance, such as "My Guardian Anger".
I had the opportunity to see Batushka on a joint tour with Behemoth in Warsaw - an incredibly interesting performance in the style of ritual and liturgy. Technically played flawlessly.
Try Exercises in Futility I. Amazing song from Mgla!
Black metal is passionate, other sub genres don't have that so much.
Suggestion: Emperor - Alsvart + Ye Entrancemperium
🔥🔥 a gorgeous album
Unless I'm mistaken, their lyrics are liturgies that have been slightly modified so that all references to Gawd are in first person. This is essentially the same as saying you're Gawd's equal which is something the church would consider blasphemous.
Shout out to Richard's shirt! One of my favorite metal albums of all time, Darkest Hour - Deliver Us. It was the first non-Christian metal album I was ever allowed to buy. When I learned many years later that Devin Townsend produced it, I understood why it just sounds so damn good.
Good to see Judson enjoying an interesting black metal band. I hope you can show him Yekteniya III which is the highlight of that album. I'm sure he'll love it
It's incredible how deeply rooted the language of music is that he understood the basic notes of the song and that it wasn't far from what he heard
They are really amazing
You have GOT to show Judson some Wolves In The Throne Room at some point!
to add more depth to the understanding of batushka and black metal for Judson
Always amaze me because the juxtaposition with the orthodox church concept mixed with raw hardcore d-beat influence in black metal, literally pushing the limits with not touching (and respect) the sonic essence of black metal. At the end of the day it's a good example of art
in simple terms shock through contradiction (blasphemous and raw black metal/traditional religion concept and make enjoyable or at least hearing something you don't take for granted, making us live in present time
Also "Batushka" is an informal address to a priest-pastor in slavic countries
It's time to take Judson to a show
What better country to take your black metal from than Poland... (OK, Norway, Sweden and Germany will also do). Please do more.
Please please please do Der Weg einer Freiheit. Anything off of Finisterre. That album is solid gold from front to back. Slugdge if you're looking for some blackened death, too. Their whole discography is amazing
We need EMPEROR
I love that album so much, its just got a level of epicness and atmosphere
Recomendation: Deafheaven, dont really care the song but i would like to see your opinion on their stuff
"I like the black metal sound" - well, yes :)
It's actually pronounced "bAtushka" - the first A is stressed.
I feel like 2 bands with the same / very similar name isn't currently something weird in Poland. We have at least 5 legendary bands like that.
Cant wait to show this to my mother next time she comes over to see her grandchildren. She's called everything i listen to Devil music since i was 11 listening to Linkin Park and System of a Down. This is obviously a church-going band 😂
😅
I liked how one guy wrote in the comments “if they played such music in church, he would go there every Sunday”
Another Black Metal sugestion: Mayhem - Freezing Moon. There are a couple of "recent" live performance with the vocalist Attila that shows them at their peak and give a perfect glimpse of what Black metal is really about
I was thinking about this yesterday, it's almost kinda weird to see this post right after thinking about it.
Cool video and I agree with the feeling black metal gives that you discussed at the end.
I think if you like the historical aspect and the epic feeling you should give Winterfylleth a try - they sing about English history, landscapes etc and are very melodic and atmospheric, I think you'd enjoy it. Have a good day guys 👍
This goes out to the good old Hudson, I hope this info can reach him :)
I like to think of black metal as being as organic as going to your backyard and grabbing wet dirt with your own hands and smelling it
Black metal, born as an opposition to the polished technical death metal of those years, which tended to copy itself even between bands, returned to the rawest and most visceral art form. That's why it doesn't seem strange to me how even the atmosphere or landscape of some countries (especially Norway) helped the artists' vision in an almost unconscious way, in a very natural way with what is the forest, the lake, the mountain. When I hear those atmospheric strummed chords that pass through each string, distinctive to black metal, it's very similar to the feeling you get when you're standing at the foot of a mountain listening to a waterfall fall, it's very transcendental, it's like you're seeing something very different from what you expect in your daily life.
Also keep in mind that the guitars in black metal are usually very narrative (Even batushka pushing the limits in black metal has this narrative stuuf on the guitars), a hallmark of cultures such as the Viking one when telling stories and that they are transported in forms of guitar tremolo technique, it's fascinating if we think about how unconsciously black metal musicians have a way of understanding music and that those elements (their culture or the context of the landscape) precede them
I hope this perspective helps to him and other here in the comment box of this video
Lovely! Thank you for that
@@Greatmeasures We are here to contribute our grain of sand, for the understanding of Hudson and whoever needs it
going from the simple to the complex is always important and more so with this music
Greetings guys! I'm watching you grow and grow until you take the next leap in quality in your project
I really appreciate both of you
4:30 This problem is caused by unclear Polish law and the situation when a band splits into two bands with the same or similar name is quite common in Poland, unfortunatelly. It happened to KAT ( legendary thrash/heavy metal band), Łzy ( pop/rock), Kombi ( pop/electronica from the 80s) and others. Courts usually let two bands co-exist. But with Batyushka the original member won a court case last month or so and "fake" Batyushka founder appealed from the decision.
Show him Transilvaninan Hunger
PLEASE REACT TO ADVENT SORROW - PESTILLENCE SHALL COME OFFICIAL VIDEO PLEASE.
Last week I listened to all their albums, after many years that I forgot they existed. Such an amazing Band
@@HashimAlmadani84 oh yes bud. They are lit indeed.
If Judson's found himself a taste for black metal I'd love to recommend A Forest of Stars, psychedelic black metal from The Kingdom!
They incorporate elements of 70s synth, Celtic and British folk, Victorian theater and chaotic black metal atmospheres into something quite special and unique that I feel like you guys might dig.
Some personal favourite tracks of theirs would be
"Decomposing Deity Dance Hall"
"A Blaze of Hammers"
"A Prophet for a Pound of Flesh"
Cheers for all the good times and GREAT MEASURES!
Ich habe gerade das konzert von Batushka in Hamburg gesehen.
Vielen dank für alles und einen großen gruß aus Deutschland😍🥰🥰
Faketushka or Batushka?
judson always cracks me up with those dad jokes at the beggining
As someone who is big into doom and never much into black metal (sonically), I would recommend Abigail Williams or Kahld as a black metal that hit me really hard and really spoke to me.
It's time for Mgla Exercises in Futility V
Temazo!
i fking love batushka and mgla, even tho im not a black metal dude nor living in west. something about these two are magical.
im from turkey. i wish we had a third band, but based on islamic stuff. i wish.. i wish...beatiful
btw, beauuuuuuuutiful piano playing. i could listen Judson's own take in this.
Black metal at its best is almost classical in its grandiosity and goal of eliciting an emotion. Not surprised old ear-hands gets it, so you should definitely expose him to more high level good stuff.
Do some Panzerfaust next, ''The Snare of the Fowler'' is nice one
remember to support real batushka lead by Drabikowski. the second one is lead by liars and robbers.
Krzysztof, a good man. he found a way to stretch the limits of black metal without bastardizing the canonical foundations of this genre of music. A true artist
How about a Song from the Warning- watching from a distance Album? These emotions...
Windir or Agalloch next🙌🏻
Also another good "Atmospheric / Orthodoxiam metal band" (metal subgenders are funny xD) - Faidra (Swe)🤘🏻
Also, another suggestion, from Switzerland - Aara
Please react to Kanonenfieber!!!
I don't think there are any other instruments other than drums, guitars and bass (well and church bells at the very end). There's a lot of church choir in there either.
Show him Windir and Mgla. He gets it. He's ready.
Really enjoy this reaction now when I seen the whole. Think you are ready for (what said below like MGLA) Nile and then the eraly stuff like Black Seeds of Vengence or Melechesh - Emiseris if you want more "Acien" and historical music.
Very nice. I think Jud might enjoy some Ad Nauseum
Someone else recommended it, but I'm doing it anyway.
Book of the Fallen by Caladan Brood, from Echoes of Battle.
Further reccs:
War by Hrad, from The Forgotten Legacy.
They Have Always Known by Midnight Odyssey, from Biolume Pt3, a Full Moon Madness.
For Glory and Death by Weald and Woe, from For the Good of the Realm
All top tier tracks and bands imo
Edit:
Thinking on the 'epic' stuff in relation to black metals themes, these bands above are in a sub genre called Epic Black Metal, and man, they should all be up Judson's alley
PLEASE! Show Judson this piece of music by Obtained Enslavement titled "The Dark Night of Souls" from the album "Soulblight" there is a beautiful piano going on all over a Black Metal song. You guys will love it and I'm sure I will love to see that too!
I had the reactor Anastasia Luna do 3 songs from the Witchcraft album in her livestreams and she was mindblown. A pity they quit music because they pretty much peaked the genre imo.
@@rolsen1304 Nice! Witchcraft is by far my favourite by OE and Black Metal bands in general, well done spreading great music!
This is excellent suggestion. Another great piece by Obtained Enslavement is Veils of Wintersorrow (+ Prelude Funebre as intro is a must). The piano and orchestration create very unique atmosphere!
Burzum - Det Som Engang Var
in addition to Mgla, i’d also like to suggest Wayfarer. they’re from colorado and have a consistent old western americana theme throughout each of their records. shits incredible.
You have to go to Blackbraid at some point. The best "new" black metal band in the last 5 years!
time for some Deathspell Omega... maybe Carnal Malefactor? some chants in there too..
Bathory!
Please do Exercises in Futility III by MGLA, it's an absolute banger to play on the piano.
Oh judson is a lover of black and doom? Have some Mizmor of the prosiac album. That is black and doom combined! I myself also like black and doom the most.
Oh, dude, how about some ...And Oceans? Hoooly
So liking black metal. Welcome to the dark side Judson.
Since Jud mentioned Singing from the pulpit check out Serpent in the Pulpit from Attic. I sure he will dig it. very Sermon like
The loss and curse of reverence from Emperor would be a great reaction¡
I NEED to see Judson react to Vela, Together We Await The Storm !!
jsem si myslel, že borec u piana je nafetovaný, ale...pak zahrál melodii...OK and UF UF - BRAVO!
What about Batushka? Or the other Batushka? Or Batushka? You forgot a lot of Batushka.
