There’s no auto-tune in their songs, you have to listen to them live to appreciate his amazing voice.
Well except for lost
@@justdave9610 haha True
@@justdave9610 except that was more for the effect than to make him sound good
@@Blandwhistle8 yeah I know that. Definitely not the same as doing every song like that because in reality you can't stay in pitch or hold a tune
@@justdave9610 aka every modern rapper or modern pop singer old rap was amazing and 80s pop was too because they could actually sing and rap and the lyrics were meaningful for the most part
Since you are a musician, STAGE will be perfect for you ....
You will love everything about that song
That’s a strong statement! Haha. I might have to check that out.
@@SteveOGRock If you do end up checking out “The Stage” by them it’s a MUST to have it paired up with the music video regardless if you actually show it to us on screen. The song and visuals together make for quite a show that you won’t regret experiencing.
@@spoodermanxxmlgxx For sure, normally I'm not a huge fan of music videos anymore, but that video is so great and actually thought-provoking without being preachy and it does fit the song really well, perfectly paced to the dynamic shifts in the music. And yeah the song itself is amazing too haha
Soudip Das I concur💯
lmao thats not auto-tune xD Thats his voice layered on top of itself multiple times to make multiple harmonies...Called "Contrary Motion"
Definitely not auto tuned. They do layer different tones but it's all naturally sung. They are just as good live as they are on albums.
A7x doesn't use autotune. They sound just as good live as they do on record.
Just saw them live on Monday and can confirm they sounded fucking amazing
Well there is their song „lost“ that is so clearly surrounded for artistic reasons that no one will ever be able to deny it 😅
Also it’s not a bad thing they use autotune. If you don’t clean up your vocals in productions, it’ll sound messy. Common practice since decades. Not a bad thing at all.
Honestly, I feel like every band uses at least some sort of pitch correction or slight auto tune, like at 1% mix. But it’s mostly to polish up the vocals for the song. Which makes sense.
This song is a tribute to their past drummer and the co-founder of the band, The Rev. Just some side info
Thanks for the insight Ruud!
Matt once said that most of this song was written by The Rev. Which is sad because in the end the lyrics ended up being about him
If you watch the So Far Away music video it definitely feels like more of a tribute you know?
The Rev actually wrote almost all of this song in 2008 before he died. The song is meant to be about a lost soul and a depressed person trying to make it by. The band changed some lyrics up and moved the chorus (which was originally “tonight we all die young”). They recently released the demo version (Shadows and the Rev both singing). It really sucks not many people know this, because this is one of the Revs greatest songs.
Loved them since the beginning. Matt has one of my favorite metal voices. They are awesome live!
matt's voice is the first reason i like a7x back in highschool. i have listened yo dozens of metal bands, but i don't like their vocals as much as i like matt's vocal.
i think i have different taste than most of peoples.
Since you are a musician I recommend to listen to "The Stage" or " A little piece of heaven" by them. Both songs are so well layered and the musicianship is really amazing!
"They says that all beauty must die, I say it just move on"
Portnoy killed this album. Such a good send off for the Rev.
Agreed, R.I.P the rev
Wish they kept him
@@Dryandice I Guess that it wouldnt allow them to move past their grief because Portnoy was one of The Rev's idols
@@LuisSilva-wx3ir also Portnoy was already in a band and did just this with them iirc
As someone mentioned, this song is a tribute to their late drummer who died during the making of this album - they'd been friends since childhood. The whispered vocals ('skull' 'they all know', etc) were actually the drummer's voice that was already recorded.
I love this song, but it's a little all over the place, lol. It's definitely self-indulgent (especially on the album) but it's a hell of a song to experience live with how they break it down into pieces and involve the fans. Hearing an entire venue singing "tonight we all die young" over and over with the lights low will make your hair stand on end.
I've been a huge fan for a long time, but if there's one thing that's always driven me nuts it's the nasal vocals, god they used to be so much worse 🤦🏼♀️ Thankfully they've improved since then.
Side note: Their lead guitarist is classically trained and it Really really shows in this one, lol
Gosh, that sounds pretty intense. Thanks for the extra info here!
Funny you say it could be shorter, my son introduced me to this song, because of its length it took me a few listens to get in to, but now it's my favourite song of all time and goes by in a flash, i listen to it very regularly
Still one of the greatest "epis" ever written to date
RIP Jimmy, the world misses you dearly still
Its about ten years since i found this great songs , n its still be my fav
Wow, I am a little late to watching this, but I want to say thank you for actually giving my recommendation a listen! 😊
Haha glad you found it in the end!
Very good job being critical and giving your opinion while also being cool and recognizing their talent.
Thanks Justin! I do me best =)
It's not auto tune. Shadows did several different vocal styles and layered them over each other.
This song was actually written after the record was finished because their drummer passed away before they released the record, hence why it is and epic and is so long. Basically a tribute to the rev
This song underrated in nightmare Album. But, every morning, i play this song. The song is Beautiful. Many harmonies in this song. Maybe Next, You should react to Hail to the king, Buried Alive, Or afterlife from Avenged Sevenfold
one of the best songs ever written.
To be fair, I dont know whether its auto tune or not. I DO know that theres a lot of layering for harmonies, which might sound like auto tune
And also mike Portnoy play the drum in this song😀
Oh really! Noice. He’s a beast.
It was written by the Rev
@@gwlm2679 but in 7:37 you can tell it's Mike
I think you’ll like live in LBC no auto tune there lol and the backing vocals are amazing live 🤘
Mike Portnoy did a great job recording the drums on this one. Gotta keep in mind this album got a good couple years on its neck by now as well. Great reaction!
It fucking needed to be 11 minutes. It’s awesome and no part of that song is boring it’s amazing. Also yeah they playing download fest this year, it’s gonna be so cool.
the most recognizable auto tuned song from them is called "lost". but I'm not sure if there any other auto tuned vocals by them.
I don’t think there’s auto tune, I heard they were very against it when they did it on one song
Yeah, they tend to layer a lot of vocals on top of one another.
It may very well be that they didn’t use auto-tune, that’s just what it sounded like to my ears. It may be just lots of vocal layers that gives it that particular smoothed vibration effect… but if so it sounds very very similar to the sound you’d get from a chunk of auto-tune being applied… which is not a sound I personally dig. Most bands do use a bit of auto tune these days, and it can be done quite subtlety which I don’t mind.
@@SteveOGRock I can guarantee you there isn't auto-tune on this track. Very surprised you actually thought you heard some specially coming from a musician.
@@vincentforest4074 That's my thing, is that it DOESN'T sound like Auto-Tune. They have used it in songs and it's always stylistically and you can tell. The parts he calls out are just harmonies lol.
i just saw this reaction and would love to see more reactions from you on this band, especially their classic stuff, yeah many people don't like singer's voice which i don't agree with, but it's fair, everyone can't have same taste.
these are some of their great songs, if u wanna dive deeper in this band and it's understanding of music
Beast and a harlot (music video)
Critical acclaim (live lbc version)
Afterlife (live lbc version)
A Little Piece of Heaven (music video)
The stage (music video)
bat country (music video)
Best band alive ! Bunch of geniuses playing together. Try The Stage or Exist you will be amazed haha
Everyone has their opinion/taste. Matt's voice ain't my favourite but I still love it, the auto tune/layering they sometimes use just enhances it. And yes Syn does love that whammy bar lol.
Heheh. Loved this comment! Thanks.
Mike portnoy from Dream Theather is actually playing the drums for them in this song, cause The Rev (real drummers) is already in heaven, R.I.P
Okay, as someone has already mentioned they have a masterpiece called “A little piece of Heaven,” it is a song about necrophilia, but another reactor you probably know “Rebeca Vocal athlete,” said its like Bohemian Rhapsody on drugs. Lol 😂
A little piece of heaven was ranged as the best A7X song by Kerrang. Well, that was before the album The Stage.
This is the last song on the album. It is always longer.
Try their Buried Alive, MIA, Danger Line, please.
The only difference between them live and in the studio is M Shadows trying to save his voice for all the shows so he doesn’t go to crazy and the effects like to give echo or reverb.
You have good mixing skill. I can heard you speaking well and the music too. Awesome.
They DO NOT auto tune.
Please look up one of they few live performances of this song, video quality isn’t great but you’ll be impressed
that is an epic song!
I don’t think there was any autotune in Nightmare album. Might be in some songs in other albums but not in here.
This isn’t auto tune these guys are pure natural
Love the reaction,! As a musician, it’s nice to hear some more technical analysis! They’ve evolved SO much, since Nightmare, so I’d love to hear your reaction to “The Stage” but especially something from their newest album: “Life Is But A Dream”.
best react, honest and fun. do some others a7x songs
Thanks Luiz!
Mike Portnoy did the recording for the drums on this album..
I love this song,my favorite 😁🤘
So I won't say there's no autotune, because I simply don't know. But where you said there's auto tune on it, what your actually hearing is 3 or 4 vocal tracks harmonizing together. They do that a ton. But also to critique your reaction, wasn't a fan. Now yes, I am a huge a7x fan. But, you almost had an attitude of, "yea you guys are great, but you don't need to be doin all that shredding". Personally I feel every part was perfectly displayed and tasteful. Also, this was the final track of the album, and the song was meant to symbolize the whirlwind of emotion from the death of their drummer/best friend. Just simply couldn't be done in a 6 minute song. That being said, thank you for doing this reaction.
Thanks for the feedback Thomas. In fairness, I didn’t have any context about the reason behind the song before reacting to it. But also, this ultimately comes down to personal taste. I can recognise the musician excellence here for sure, but the overall style of the combinations just doesn’t speak to me the way some other musical choices do. It’s not bad by any means. It’s just not for my taste.
Maybe I need to do a bit more signposting in my reactions by highlighting when I’m offering opinion rather than musical analysis. I’ll take that feedback with me. Thanks.
Next :Avenged sevenfold
Danger Line react
React to a little peace of heaven, its a masterpiece from them
They sound just as good live. They aren't auto tuned. They have a great series of Making of ... videos you should check out.
The lyrics at the end was supposed to be the chorus.
Ain't no auto tune is this,itz pure Mat Shadows vocals n Synister Gates backing vocals
I love this song, next : The Human Abstract - Antebellum 😆👍
Avenged Sevenfold - MIA
React to Eternal Rest, my favourite Avenged Sevenfold song
I recommend you Roman Sky from Avenged Sevenfold, brautiful and melodic song with a lot of strings
Please reaction another avenged sevenfold. I recommended a7x live in lbc
I will definitely do another of theirs at some point. Thanks for the recommendation.
then Not Ready to Die, Carry On
React to trashed and scattered,its good
Looks like you should try React Dream Theater which is titled Pale Blue Dot
Cheers Rex, I’ll add it to the list.
It's good....lolll. Man i'm a musician too and its not quite good, its a masterpiece!! Just reunite enough good musician to do this is like nearly impossible, except if you are Dream Theater! I will listen more of their song for sure!!
would love to see you check out their song called Cosmic
THE STAGE!!!!!!
Great song..next time react Avenged sevenfold M.I.A
Saudades Mike Portnoy
No autotune my friend
React to "Coma" by Guns N Roses it is a really interesting song and you will probably love it 😀
I enjoyed your reaction! To much focus on the drums. Doing it without pausing is tough though ❤
The revs dead dude. You ll never ever listen to them again.
Honestly this is one of my favorite songs by them. I love A7x don't get me wrong. but i think the ending wasn't really needed. they should have stopped it around the 9:30 make. or at least only made the "tonight we all die young" part a little shorter. idk might just be me.
thats literally the part the rev composed as a chorus. and the whole song is a tribute to him lol
Akeh omong ee
Pretty bad takes for a so called musician.
Ok?... for a musician you really overlooked very interesting musical aspects of this amazing song.. There is just SO MUCH TO TALK ABOUT THIS SONG... and to complaint about the length of the song.. really? well... it has a progressive metal influence from Mike Portnoy. So idk... this video left me a bad taste..
he´s full of shit.
Greatest album of all time brings me to tears /goosebumps
