GVF live are nuts. Crowd work was great, instruments were great and that voice is off the freaking chain - couldn’t believe how good these guys sound live, fucking electric vibes.
The thing about greta van fleet to me is that no matter what they just sound so much better live, like no recording can honestly just show h o w good they can be live
Just saw them live this past week (5/21/24) and it was truly a euphoric experience. This song in particular came out the day after my grandpa passed away, so has always been super symbolic to me even though they claim the song isn't about meeting God.
@@andrewperoutka8449I think the meaning of a song really is about how you interpret it. They may not have intended for it to be perceived that way but I think songs can have different meanings depending on who you ask.
@@porschepal7932 Oh 100% I think this one is definitely interpretive depending on the listener. I’m not a huge believer of God, but due to the circumstances prior to the songs release, I definitely interpreted it that way. But it’s totally one of those songs where every person can sort of associate their own meaning to it.
All thier songs are part of a story. They want to give each listener to come up with thier own meanings of each song. They really are such talented guys on their own merit. What they say Meeting the Master is about 'Meeting the Master' peers into an esoteric world heeded by the word of a wise teacher," the band explained. "Sung in the voice of a devout believer, and eventual group exclamation, the song details the love these fervent followers have for their teacher and their firm belief in his vision. It's an exotic spiritual journey. A dark comedy that inevitably ends in chaos."
Fun fact, it's the same guitarist throughout the song. It starts with the acoustic and then moves to that Gibson SG. If you listen closely, there is a section in the song where there is no guitar at all. He's making the switch from the acoustic to the electric. They're able to do this live too. Band Members: Josh Kiszka (singer and harmonica), Jake Kiszka (guitarist), Sam Kiszka (bass guitarist, piano, and organ), Daniel Wagner AKA Danny (Drums and Mandolin). They're all incredibly talented. It's hard enough to play 1 instrument as well as they do but to play multiple instruments as well as they do is absolutely insane.
This song is amazing live! I saw them do it at Madison Square Garden and it was one of the highlights of the concert. Josh's vocals when the song switches from acoustic to electric were amazing
This is a once in a generation sound and I'm beyond happy I've seen this band live. He has maybe the best voice I've ever heard. No one I know, including myself in the shower can hit these songs
Definitely better than Plante now. Guy embodies an entire era of sound in his voice, not just one person anymore. The highway tune days of his style are gone. He's hitting notes RP could never touch at thus point
His range is higher than Plant was. It's not as low either. Plant could scream high but not sing up there like Josh. They are noticeably different if you have an ear.
Led Zeppelin fanboy here, and I defend there blatant plagiarism. BUT THIS GOES WITHOUT SAYING HE IS BETTER THAN ROBERT PLANT. ROBERT PLANT WAS A SEXUAL SINGER, ROBERT IS STILL BETTER WHEN IT COMES TO CARNAL EMOTIONS. But this guy is a complete package, a package nobody has ever seen in the industry.
@@WatchingHamasBURNSame. Led Zeppelin has already been done. I'd rather hear what GVF has to offer than being too similar to a band that's already done their thing.
I'm one of the few that fell in love with GVF from the jump. I heard all the criticisms that they sound like Zeppelin, a tribute band, they're frauds, ad nauseum. I wasn't hearing it. I only heard the quality of such a young band and instantly saw the potential. I've always responded by saying every band in history is a reflection of their influences. Zeppelin themselves took so much from Willie Dixon and many other bands prior. It's a silly debate unless they were covering their songs. Even then I didn't hold Zeppelin accountable for sounding like or using their influences. They created using those influences. "Meeting The Master" is the culmination of the band's influences, creativity, and experiences. They've matured and it's blatantly obvious just how talented this band is. I'm almost 60 and have many friends who are admitting they misjudged GVF. This particular song is one of perfection, in my mind. I'm hard core Classic Rock. I'm very grateful the band of the calibur of GVF, is performing in an era of American Idol.
This song is in reference to a devout worship of a believer and his teacher. In a cultish kind of way. You guys have to listen to some live stuff. They are awesome live. “Age of Man and You’re the One live from Red Rocks. “Safari Song and Edge of Darkness” live in Toronto Candlelight sessions “Broken Bells and Light my Love” Heat Above original video. Love your GVF reactions. They are simply amazing! Like you said in your very first review of this band, I am so glad these guys are out there!
Anybody else think the chick is a voluntary sacrifice to the unnamed God? She is wearing a red cloak. They have red hands….blood on their hands. I think in general the song conveys the insider view of what it is like to experience spiritual ecstasy and then take it to a place of madness and violence. The first bridge expresses that ecstatic feeling, but by the end it becomes sinister…the scenes suggestive of a dark ritual and potential sacrifice and then Josh’s words “blow it up to give him all of our love” and his insane frenzy as the fire flares. In the wrong hands spiritual ecstasy can become as potent and violent a drug as any other man has created. This is the closest I ever want to come to understanding the mind of a religious terrorist.
Greetings from the UK..this particular track is so folky I got all the symbolism in the video. Combination of folk music and rock oustanding. They had the Lady of the Lake as you may know the story of Excalibar sword (King Arther) the white horse..we have a Huge white horse in chalk on a hill thats been found to be more ancient than realised representing a female benevolrnyt folk hero. Also remember the White horse in Lord of the Rings? Oh snd the Oak tree big symbol for Druids. There are like a prophetic band if you see some of their other videos and songs which I guess makes them true Bards sent here to inspire us.
They are such a good band sen them live and seeing again later this year and there phenomenal Josh’s vocals live are unmatched his voice is so beautiful live especially this song cuse he dose an op up and it just sooo gooooooddd
Love you guys take on this I get leg chills every time I hear it Another fave of mine and others is Stardust Chords I’d love to know what you think of it Thanks
The guys don’t really get upset at LZ comparisons, per se, it’s when people who are less than fond of them claim that GVF are stealing LZs songs and not being original, which is obviously preposterous. These guys have their own style now and it’s a futile measure to perpetuate that crap.
Great reaction, gotta do live ones. These guys are great in the studio, bu great-ER live! Candlelight sessions, and RCA studio sessions are all good options but anything live from their channel works.
@@leefertwayne8163 Even from the beginning, only the drums and singing were at most, inspired by Zeppelin. A lot of their early songwriting were always more Aerosmith to me. But they have been their own thing for a good while now.
I'm 59 and I can solidly say, he is better that Robert Plant. These guys are from Frankenmuth Michigan and I highly recommend going there, especially at Christmas. Zehnders has the best chicken dinners period. Lots of places to shop
I love your review! Thank you for appreciating their talent! They just released a few of the studio cuts of Starcatcher. You HAVE to watch Indigo Streak at RCA studios! It’s the rocker of the album and you can distinctly hear every single instrument, and Josh’s voice is better than you’ve ever heard in any other song because you can hear it clearly without any autotune. The only thing they might use is a little echo, but I’m not even sure about that.
Greta kind of explained this as a “dark comedy” about people blindly following their faith with extreme devotion to the point it gets kind of evil and dark
I don't like the comparisons to RP, at times there is a likeness but RP was a legend and now these boys will be legends too because they are absolutely brilliant. LZ were 28 years ago and they managed to blow our minds, now GVF are doing the same and for me that's where the likeness comes in
I recommend to check out all their Live videos on their channel. It looks like you haven't explored any tracks from their previous album, "The Battle At The Garden's Gate." A lot of great tracks on that one. They also have a set of tracks from "Starcatcher" that are also live (including this one), and they're fantastic. Trust all commenters (myself included) when we say they're all better live.
Also vocals kinda sound like the lead singer of Angel. Go listen to Angel's lead vocalist. But I also think he sings in the style somewhat of Blind Melons lead vocalist.
I'm surprised they're not compared to Styx more. They like synergized so many styles that us GenXer have been missing since our youth. This song had me pull over my car and listen and really started my Greta journey.
He’s 100% a better vocalist than Plant … I love LZ and GVF and see the early comparisons. But this guy is an infinitely better vocalist with a miles wider range … that’s not to take anything away from Plant or his band, one of the best of all time . But Josh is objectively a much better singer
To your God of all music idea.. when you see the live show they put in specific riffs and grooves from classic songs. Before they play classically instrumented clips from Starcatcher musical themes. Like Quadrophenia or even like Peter and the Wolf. True journey.
Is the "Master" not God? Some people are saying earth, music, or the universe and all of those are fine options. I don't know what their beliefs are so you all might know something I don't but it seems like God or if you prefer, the Creator of all things is the simplest answer.
People who complain that they would like you know who should look at it as honoring you know who & quite bitching & appreciate young people that are playing rock n roll!🍺
Yeah, it's that old tune that starts in D and then walks down to D/C and D/B before going back to D. It's okay that they used that here. I mean, we're not going to bust rock bands for using popular chord progressions. If we did, everyone would be busted. I'm gonna take a freight train Down at the station, Lord I don't care where it goes Gonna climb a mountain The highest mountain I'll jump off, nobody gonna know Come down off your throne and leave your body alone Somebody must change You are the reason I've been waiting all these years Somebody holds the key Well, I'm near the end and I just ain't got the time And I'm wasted and I can't find my way home … I can't find my way home But I can't find my way home But I can't find my way home But I can't find my way home Still I can't find my way home Can't you see, whoa, can't you see What that woman, Lord, she been doin' to me? Can't you see, can't you see What that woman, she's been doin' to me? I'm gonna find me a hole in the wall I'm gonna crawl inside and die 'Cause my lady, now a mean ol' woman, Lord Never told me goodbye
In my opinion Josh sounds more like Geddy Lee if I had to compare him to someone. I’ve heard that the reason Jake’s guitar playing can sometimes sound like Page is because they were both inspired by the same artists from the 50s and 60s. The Kiszka family grew up listening nothing bust super old school vinyls.
Dude, I know who they're singing to. It's the master, the God of music the God of the Universe the God of humanity the God of nature the God of art the God of the past, present and future God
Loved your reactions and subscribed too. Josh has vocal range that is just plain sick. Jake can shred a mean guitar as good as anyone. Sam and Danny are so good that completes this band so tight. Check out Candlelight Sessions Light My Love. I’m glad you guys complimented them positively. Thanks
First off, regarding the two guys reacting, they claim to be musicians, but dont sound like them. At least not polished players that force me to respect their opinion. At no point did I feel a Rick Beato-level vibe from these cats. Yes, GVF has strong comparisons to Led Zeppelin as a whole, but Geddy Lee's voice from Rush has been prevalent as well. The video was clearly aiming to resemble a majestic mid-evil vibe, which is Zep in a nutshell. Anyone that ademently denies any of the aforementioned comparisons is smokin' that §H|x ! Prior to this song, GVF sounded like Zeppelin on many tracks, especially the singing and guitar playing parts. And although they don't sound like Rush's vocalist, Geddy Lee's vocal tone and nasal twang has presented itself in this young man's voice, occasionally, along with Plant's. Not to mention that GVF in their first semi-high production video they were styled/dressed like contemporary rockers. That wasn't them and turned out to be a marketing error. So this is ALL MY NEGATIVITY held towards these reactors and GVF. I always felt GVF were a solid and talented band, but found the Zep and Lee comparisons were inescapable. Sure, they didn't want to be compared to older bands, because their managing and marketing people told them to disrupt that comparison. *This is the 70s rock ballad Ithought they were capable of creating, but sounding like GVF and not Zep or Lee. THIS SONG IS ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT. I disagree with the guy claiming the guitar riff sounds like "Cant You See" from The Marshall Tucker Band. GTFOH‼️ I understand the tortured resemblance, but its not recognizable enough to make mention of it negatively. My point is that I'm no big deal, but GVF deserves answers. We have a potentially great band here, folks. I know this clip came out awhile ago, but I still find this to be a pivotal point in the bands trejectory! A few more of the songs and its a wrap! Lets root for the guys to keep cranking out songs like this. Ya never know, your kids may one day say, "This is a masterpiece!" I hope so 🤞🙏
GVF live are nuts. Crowd work was great, instruments were great and that voice is off the freaking chain - couldn’t believe how good these guys sound live, fucking electric vibes.

All thier songs are part of a story. They want to give each listener to come up with thier own meanings of each song. They really are such talented guys on their own merit. What they say Meeting the Master is about

Tbf I think if Robert had looked after his voice and had operatic training like josh did they would be probably be on a similar level
Led Zeppelin fanboy here, and I defend there blatant plagiarism.

ROBERT PLANT WAS A SEXUAL SINGER, ROBERT IS STILL BETTER WHEN IT COMES TO CARNAL EMOTIONS.

GVF will never change rock the way zeppelin did BUT they are a good rock n roll band in the modern era and probably the last one standing
The Weight of Dreams and Sacred the Thread are definitely favorites of mine.
I saw them two nights ago. Mind blown.
You would love weight of dreams live it's a adventure
I love the satire on the state of cults in the world. They are making fun of cults gentlemen. The last sentence of the song explains it all.
This song reminds me when i was a kid and my father was listening Yes in a sunny sunday's morning
Time for The Weight Of Dreams😎
Check out the live Pinkpop version, outdoor concert...amazing!!! 😍
I hope so

OMG I love their liver and onions
This guys voice is like Jon Anderson from the genius band “ YES”, very similar , wonder if he was inspired ?
Absolutely nothing at all in common with Jon Anderson.
You guys are only three songs in on this phenomenal band and a deeper dive will yield you some very interesting perspective.
I love your review! Thank you for appreciating their talent! They just released a few of the studio cuts of Starcatcher. You HAVE to watch Indigo Streak at RCA studios!

The band admitted they have no clue. Its up to the listener to decide who the "Master" is.. mine is Sho Nuff...
🤣 YES!!! - iykyk
This song live is great too.. The master is Earth or universe.
Check out the indigo streak! The band put out 2 live performances of it. One in the studio and one in concert
Vocals remind me somewhat of Shannon Hoon . And I really like Shannon's vocals. So thumbs up.
Also vocals kinda sound like the lead singer of Angel. Go listen to Angel's lead vocalist. But I also think he sings in the style somewhat of Blind Melons lead vocalist.

I haven't been this in to a new band since Rush. Dseeezzzz
He’s 100% a better vocalist than Plant … I love LZ and GVF and see the early comparisons. But this guy is an infinitely better vocalist with a miles wider range … that’s not to take anything away from Plant or his band, one of the best of all time . But Josh is objectively a much better singer

Randy Jackson of zebra also had that same sound. All great artists that do their own thing. Rock and roll is never dead
Robert plant meets Getty...meets singer from Yes, some albums he sounded like zep, others vocals sounded like zep and getty, and singer from Yes
Wicca ❤❤❤

Short answer: YES
I 100% agree that he sings better than Plant. Josh regularly hits a G5 super casually. Plant could never.
I HAVE SEEN THEM 5 TIMES LIVE, 6 TH IN MAY. NEVER DO THEY DISSAPOINT LIVE. IF NOT BETTER
Next up is Weight of Dreams you gotta do it

Ethereal
Not sure it matters who they sound like. If the music moves you and it’s good, you know it when you know it.

Better than Robert Plante? No. Different? Yes. Unbelievably talented? Definitley.
Agree with you guys, that dude is really at Robert Plant level...holly molly they are good.
GVF are fire ..and they are better live if you can believe it
You should listen to "you're the one" or "flower power"

Vocal sound is similar to Jon Anderson of Yes
Because Led Zeppline is one of the key rock bands in rock music history, it's normal for them to compare :)
In my opinion Josh sounds more like Geddy Lee if I had to compare him to someone. I’ve heard that the reason Jake’s guitar playing can sometimes sound like Page is because they were both inspired by the same artists from the 50s and 60s. The Kiszka family grew up listening nothing bust super old school vinyls.
Dude, I know who they're singing to.
It's the master, the God of music
the God of the Universe
the God of humanity
the God of nature
the God of art
the God of the past, present and future
God
Sorry. RP wishes he could sing like Josh :) But I still think this is GVF's Stairway to Heaven.
Now heat above or weight of dreams
“Disseminate” means to distribute widely. The word you meant is “differentiate”, to distinguish one from another. Ur welcome.
Loved your reactions and subscribed too. Josh has vocal range that is just plain sick. Jake can shred a mean guitar as good as anyone. Sam and Danny are so good that completes this band so tight. Check out Candlelight Sessions Light My Love. I’m glad you guys complimented them positively. Thanks
Can't you see by Marshal Tucke is the song you're thinking ofr
Defiantly a touch of Zeppelin
M a huge led Zeppelin fanboi to a point I defend them for their obvious plagiarism😅
BUT I HAVE TO SAY THIS HE SINGS BETTER THAN PLANT ON ANY UNIVERSE.
Greta is so off the hook I can't even put it into words.
I've always thought he sounds more like Dio
Vocal melody was stolen from Jethro Tull. Reason for Waiting on the album Stand Up.
Better than Plant??? Behave guys! 🙄
Better.
The song he's thinking is about a women. Loard
Makeup and wardrobe brought to you by astonishingly vast amounts of weed.
First off, regarding the two guys reacting, they claim to be musicians, but dont sound like them. At least not polished players that force me to respect their opinion. At no point did I feel a Rick Beato-level vibe from these cats.
Yes, GVF has strong comparisons to Led Zeppelin as a whole, but Geddy Lee's voice from Rush has been prevalent as well.
The video was clearly aiming to resemble a majestic mid-evil vibe, which is Zep in a nutshell. Anyone that ademently denies any of the aforementioned comparisons is smokin' that §H|x !
Prior to this song, GVF sounded like Zeppelin on many tracks, especially the singing and guitar playing parts. And although they don't sound like Rush's vocalist, Geddy Lee's vocal tone and nasal twang has presented itself in this young man's voice, occasionally, along with Plant's.
Not to mention that GVF in their first semi-high production video they were styled/dressed like contemporary rockers. That wasn't them and turned out to be a marketing error.
So this is ALL MY NEGATIVITY held towards these reactors and GVF.
I always felt GVF were a solid and talented band, but found the Zep and Lee comparisons were inescapable. Sure, they didn't want to be compared to older bands, because their managing and marketing people told them to disrupt that comparison.
*This is the 70s rock ballad Ithought they were capable of creating, but sounding like GVF and not Zep or Lee. THIS SONG IS ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT. I disagree with the guy claiming the guitar riff sounds like "Cant You See" from The Marshall Tucker Band. GTFOH‼️ I understand the tortured resemblance, but its not recognizable enough to make mention of it negatively.
My point is that I'm no big deal, but GVF deserves answers. We have a potentially great band here, folks. I know this clip came out awhile ago, but I still find this to be a pivotal point in the bands trejectory! A few more of the songs and its a wrap!
Lets root for the guys to keep cranking out songs like this. Ya never know, your kids may one day say, "This is a masterpiece!" I hope so 🤞🙏
Biblically, "the master or lord of music", was/is Satan himself!
you guys didn't actually listen to the lyrics
He sounds nothing like Plant! too much screaming!
Master = Lucifer
