I love creepy-heavy Spiritbox. It’s more fitting of their band name and to their roots. Cellar Door reminds me a lot of stuff like Beauty of Suffering and I think it is their best song since Holy Roller. This was a much needed comeback for me. Courtney has always had a creepy mind and I think Mike compliments it favorably with his guitar-work.
THANK YOU OMG. Nobody EVER talks about Beauty of Suffering... and they just say Holy Roller is their heaviest, and I personally think BoS is heavier than that song, play wise and emotion-provoke wise. I know BoS has singing and screaming and Holy Roller is all screaming but I just think Courtney in BoS is just insane with how she sounds so pissed off, you can really feel it. Holy Roller is a banger, don't get me wrong and it makes you feel shit too. I know it brought more fans in and maybe they didn't listen to SB's earlier stuff but ugh lol. I eyeroll every time when people say Holy Roller is their heaviest song of all time. I would kill for them to play Beauty of Suffering live, or at least a new one-take posted (one was posted 5y ago) especially now with how much Courtney has progressed as a vocalist and has only gone up since the release of their first EP, and her days in IWABO.
@EmiiHates RIGHT. they have songs that are heavier and better than holy roller. like BoS, belcarra, aphids, silk in the strings, and now angel eyes and cellar door.
in the Mara Effect there weren't many of thos moments tho - and that was pretty much their root/origin. So with this they rather go back to Holy Roller time
This breakdown left me thinking of because the core of the Earth is composed of iron and nickel, basically everything on our planet is around metalcore. Thank you Spiritbox, I am calm and happy now!
Song is such a banger for sure. I get what you mean about not NEEDING it, but I always appreciate when they do heavy stuff. All of the stuff they do is always so great. Johnny's cover of it is so amazing too!
While I love this and Holy Roller, the best heavy Spiritbox song to me, which I feel is insanely slept on, is Silk In The Strings. That to me was already Holy Roller 2.0 because it's got that groove while also being brutal af
10/10. heaviest song theyve done, even lyrically and in the vibe, theyre back to that mara effect'/belcarra spooky vibe on this one, i love how drone-y and sludgy it is, and that they pivot styles from song to song. theyre absolutely my favorite modern metal band.
I’m glad I was scrolling through TH-cam one day and came across your reaction to Circle With Me because I’ve been a fan of both you and Spiritbox ever since!
I was questioning the ending at first then heard the start to Jaded... reminds me of the continuous smooth transitions Rock/EDM etc CDs of the early 2000s.
Your first time hearing this was my first time hearing this! I had such a stank face on for that breakdown and you really got me with "She f***ing broke the EARTH"!
What I love about this band is it's heavy but it's also soft and detailed at the same time with all the different layers. It's actually just beautiful. 🖤
Love this new song! The first like 15 seconds confuse my brain for some reason but I love it too. The ambient outro leads perfectly into Jaded if you listen to the back to back.
A Spiritbox, ice nine collab would be killer in my head. Ice nine leading these massive epic chorus’s and filming style with Spirtbox’s creepy and heavies for plot to the video and breakdown 🔥🔥
I didn't really like this song when it first debuted, but I think I just wasn't in the mood for super heavy at the time. This has grown on me so much. I absolutely like this better than holy roller. Such a sick song.
Bro, I absolutely love Belcarra, it's so good. I've been a fan for such a long time, since just as The Singles Collection came out in 2019. I heard Trust Fall first and heard her hit that low af note and I was in love and haven't stopped since.
this song, rhythmically, is probably one of the most interesting songs to me in general... especially as a drummer, i find it to be VERY intriguing.. i believe during the breakdown the drummer is in 4/4 and the guitars are in 13/8 ? its SO cool
Я просто хотел очередной раз посмотреть на забавное выражение лица Ника Ноктюрнала. В итоге на припеве Спиритбокс меня автоматически взмыло в воздух и я с бешенным неистовством стал крутить невероятные вертухи, расхуярив стену и экран монитора. Спасибо за грув, кач и парочку незапланированных сквозных отверстий
Dude as soon as I heard this song I was like "Nic is for sure gonna snap his neck listening to this" good thing you prepared in advance XD, Spiritbox till the end
Brutal track this, Spiritbox never fail to amaze. Pure stankface for that intro, chorus & breakdown, good luck to all in the pit for this one, heavy af and it’s still as intense after many listens. Incredible band
I see this slapping Niks ass in the next few try not to headbang challenges - probably the mods invested some money in spiritbox and paid them to produce a banger so they´ll make even more money in the next streams :D
I wanna point out to those who wonder why this hits harder than other songs even though it's "caveman" and simple "four on the floor" is because of that dissonant/electronic hums in the background which pushes the bass. I hear garage bands try similiar breakdowns and it lacks "oomph" because of that
I absolutely love how if you were just watching the video without audio, you'd think Courtney was singing sweetly to you hahah
But she is singing softly. Like mama bear humming lullabies so her cubs can sleep
She's always sorta done this with their videos. I think it's great too :D
I'm hyped to see horror elements coming back.
I love the contrast of it. It's so fitting every time she does it.
I just logged in imma try it lol
😂😂
Spiritbox has achieved new levels of Brootality with this one
I think you meant br00tality

This songs as brutal as your spelling 😂
@@theearthrexden in the words of the lead singer of Dethklok, “Brutal.” That was no roast thy spoke. Nay, that was an incineration.

ony the last minute of the last Song - iconic yeah, but not the general Music back then
3:50 Courtney smashing the earth to summon Gojira for that heavy breakdown riff
4:00 damn that breakdown is heavy as hell
Even the chorus is a breakdown 🔥🔥🔥
Bruh the chorus is heavier than the breakdown
Spiritbox makes these beautiful songs and then every once in a while they remind us that they won't hesitate to beat the shit out of us
These days I’ve heard breakdowns softer than this song’s chorus good lord
The chorus is just a nasty breakdown 😩🥵 the whole song gives me Mara Effect and Electric Cross vibes and I'm ALL ABOUT IT
Courtney on her Wednesday Addams fit, Mike on his bouncy boy trampoline 😎🎸 this is perfect!
I was thinking about it, too, daaaamn! xD
Wasn’t Wednesday born on Friday the 13th? And what day did this video come out? M hm. You’re welcome.

SILK! YESSSSS!
bro silk in the strings is so underrated its so good
Silk is easily the best from EB. My favorite song from them is still Bleach Bath though
Yeah silk in the strings is really phenomenal yet rarely talked about, cant even find a good guitar tab for it
So the beauty of suffering is a joke to you? wtf
10/10. heaviest song theyve done, even lyrically and in the vibe, theyre back to that mara effect'/belcarra spooky vibe on this one, i love how drone-y and sludgy it is, and that they pivot styles from song to song. theyre absolutely my favorite modern metal band.
This is easily one of my favorite spiritbox songs. It's beautifully brutal. Courtney is a Goddess. 🤘🔥🔥
So spiritbox is now making ost for new doom
They'll have to get in line behind Alex Terrible. 😂
@@RecluseBootsymake them collab lmao
Imagine how hard that would go
@@venezuelanomori15 not hard at all in physical terms, musically that'd be a tough mix. 😅
@@RecluseBootsy a guy can still dream 😭
I’m glad I was scrolling through TH-cam one day and came across your reaction to Circle With Me because I’ve been a fan of both you and Spiritbox ever since!
Getting a yelp ad in the middle of the breakdown😂
I've lost how many times I've listened to this and it's not old yet. I still headbang and stankface to it. That breakdown is so EPIC
Nah, it's some of their best work right here.
How can this band keep getting better and better and better and better.... their mix of styles and vibes and songs is just so overall perfect.
Mosh pits with this one is gonna be madness. I really need to see these guys live
Cant wait, next february is going to be my second time in Milan..CAN’T WAAAAIT
Love how this transitions into jaded
I was questioning the ending at first then heard the start to Jaded... reminds me of the continuous smooth transitions Rock/EDM etc CDs of the early 2000s.
Its awesome bro
I love their entire catalog. I find them super versatile.
I needed this ignorant heavy for sure. Get the anger out and move along. Lol
I think I still prefer Jaded but this song is definitely growing on me!
Same I like melodic
Same here
Jaded might be their best ever
@@JmR201Blessed Be is still my personal fave
3:49 The correct response to this part of the song
Your first time hearing this was my first time hearing this! I had such a stank face on for that breakdown and you really got me with "She f***ing broke the EARTH"!
The way this is the heaviest song they have ever made and fades out like mara effect or something... Sooo goood i love it
I also love the fact how the song perfectly fades into Jaded. So you wont stop there, you'll listen TO EVEN MORE SPIRITBOX! :D
This song is a breakdown that needs a breakdown counter for the other breakdowns within the whole breakdown 🤘🏼
yesss it really is
Belcarra was the first Spiritbox song I ever heard, this takes me back to that and I absolutely love it
I dig the "groovy" stuff too, Nik - you should do a "Top 10 Grooviest Metal Songs" list!
What I love about this band is it's heavy but it's also soft and detailed at the same time with all the different layers. It's actually just beautiful. 🖤
WE’VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS REACTION ALL WEEKEND! It’s such a stupidly good stanky creepy song, huh!? Love the channel!
Belcarra is my favorite as well. This one is my favorite at the moment but Belcarra is next level.
Spiritbox never dissapoints
They never miss i swear,
I’m such a big fan of spiritbox 🙌🏽
Love this new song! The first like 15 seconds confuse my brain for some reason but I love it too. The ambient outro leads perfectly into Jaded if you listen to the back to back.
This sounded better than almost anything else from them that I’ve heard. I dig it.
Yes! Spookybox is back in the house just in time for Halloween
We making it out of the basement with this one 🤘🤘
(You know it's good when the chorus is as heavy as most modern breakdowns)
FECK. That tension building pre-breakdown gave me goosebumps.
Luckily, I was following the neck stretching instructions...
A Spiritbox, ice nine collab would be killer in my head. Ice nine leading these massive epic chorus’s and filming style with Spirtbox’s creepy and heavies for plot to the video and breakdown 🔥🔥
Nik is so epic, his 54.1% of subscribers counteract the 46.9 % so hard that an extra 1% of viewers are summoned into existence. Bravo, sir.
"Is IT a COUN-TRY song!?" at 0:17 had Paulie Shore vibes BUUUUUUUUDDY
I didn't really like this song when it first debuted, but I think I just wasn't in the mood for super heavy at the time. This has grown on me so much. I absolutely like this better than holy roller. Such a sick song.

Damn, the breakdown breakdown is so damn heavy..
I was gettin' emotional and had a insane chill down my spine 😂😂😂
I fucking love Spiritbox. Very excited for a possible KoRnbox tour after seeing them on social media with Ray & Head.
I've been quietly rocking out to this song most of the train ride home
Я просто хотел очередной раз посмотреть на забавное выражение лица Ника Ноктюрнала.

This was one of the first songs i've heared from them and it's been running on repeat for days
You got a lot to listen to homie
Love your videos as always!
I've heard heavy cellar doors before but this is by far the best sounding one
Nik's feelings on Spiritbox pretty much exactly match up with my own, and that's why I trust his opinion about anything musically related.
Soundscapes with heavy riff in front and this SFX guitar effects (weeeewooooo) - all of thiese reminds me of Vildhjarta track den spanska känslan!
nik youve really opened up bro i remember when you had 20k subs, really came out of the shell
Dude as soon as I heard this song I was like "Nic is for sure gonna snap his neck listening to this" good thing you prepared in advance XD, Spiritbox till the end
I love Courtney’s creepy vibe. The band going hard in the background, and she’s just standing there like, “I guess I’ll sing” 😂 Bold and awesome vibe
I was patiently waiting for this reaction and I am not disappointed, Nik is legend and of course Spiritbox are legends
SPIRITBOX consistently surprises me, but in the best way. Like I never know what to expect from them, so they consistently surprise me.
Was waiting for this reaction! SB just knows how to make bangers. 🤘🏼
Brutal track this, Spiritbox never fail to amaze. Pure stankface for that intro, chorus & breakdown, good luck to all in the pit for this one, heavy af and it’s still as intense after many listens. Incredible band
Breakdown literally gave me goosebumps lmao luv this one!
Watching with Nik is the best way to hear a song for the first time
The breakdown gave me freaking full-body chills!!! 🤩
The seemless transition into Jaded is sick as well
I just heard this today, absolutely love it
that intro is a masterclass in syncopation
The ending transitions perfectly into Jaded. Spiritbox is killing it
This is what I call heavy music when people ask the difference between heavy and hard hitting. This hits like a weighted blanket.
Such an epic song....plus i love that her face stays in a rested position the whole time 🤪🤘🤘🤘🤘
that breakdown reminds me of This Love by Pantera but faster. Kinda a good to put a pre breakdown line.. "no more head trip'' to it XD
Spiritbox and Knocked Loose are killing this year
Raraptor deserves to be heard - 3:59 "Raraptor: SPIRITJARTA"
Spiritbox is the best band of the planet. Thanks for the video.
so the next song in the album after this is Jaded. listen the outro of this song. Drifts to Jaded intro where Mike does his clean guitar parts.
Yeah love how Courtney basically Yeets the ground out with Hulk smash 3:50 & 6:07
He brought back the WATER BOTTLE!!!
Been waiting for your reaction since this came out. Been skipping all the other reactions until you got this out
you were disappointed that bmth didn't give us a proper breakdown but don't worry Spiritbox is here for you! 🤘
i just got into these guys recently, and i think that their 3 newest singles are probably my favorite music of theirs
When fighting demons, this is what I want in the background.
I feel the exact same way with his take on this song vs holy roller, love both of these songs.
I love how the chorus after the breakdown almost hits heavier lmao
5:52 that key is all Courtney see’s in her dreams.
WE GOT NEW HEAVIES!!!!!!!!!
Edit: I just got audibly rawdogged by this song
@ghostfacekurdkillah4147lol okay buddy
@ghostfacekurdkillah4147deaf
@ghostfacekurdkillah4147oh dear , youre here again ?
Guitar World just dropped a playthrough of this by Mike in an empty arena... he's such a riff god 🙌
I see this slapping Niks ass in the next few try not to headbang challenges - probably the mods invested some money in spiritbox and paid them to produce a banger so they´ll make even more money in the next streams :D
Finally got to see them, last night in Denver, the final show of the RevolutionsLive tour.
SO! FUCKING! AMAZING! 🔥🔥🔥💀
We all love a nice chorus that you can sing along to.
What a great tune!!!! Fun Metal things. Thanks Nik
That chorus is so fucking brutal. I love it
Belcarra was def the turning track from that point forward they just owned and yes Holy Roller has the sickest groove
The people who keep calling this Holy Roller 2.0 are probably the same people whose favorite band is Nirvana but only heard Smells Like Teen Spirit
Chug chug chug chug chug chug chug. Thats heavy AF hahaha i love that Bridge thats insane
I wanna point out to those who wonder why this hits harder than other songs even though it's "caveman" and simple "four on the floor" is because of that dissonant/electronic hums in the background which pushes the bass. I hear garage bands try similiar breakdowns and it lacks "oomph" because of that
I've checked TH-cam every day sense this dropped waiting for your reaction.
It was exactly as expected.
