One of the most underrated band in US.
Ohhhh Symphony X! WHAT A BAND!
Symphony X has my favourite metal sound. Even their weakest tracks are amazing because of the sound alone. Also Michael Romeo's rhythm guitar is the best thing I've ever heard.
Saw Symphony X live last sunday.. And they blew the crowd away.. So darn awesome.. It was 20 years since I'd see them for the first time.... Forever awesome.. Especially vocalist Sir Russel Allen.. The best voice in metal! Thanx for reacting. Have a great weekend. X
Russell is the king of prog metal vocals. Fucking killer band!
I've been waiting for someone to react to Symphony X! Hell yeah!
Classic Symphony X. Neo classical inspired shredding, awesome vocals above average lyrics. They evolved into a more signature style much heavier with time, but they're still awesome.
Imagine a Divine Wings album with the riffs of The Odyssey and Paradise Lost - Underworld production..
Still hoping for one more proggy Symphony X album!
Love, love your channel and greetings from Ireland 🤘😎🤘
Misfits shirt says it all when she asks what there's not to like about this song.
Symphony X has been around for quite a while. At least 20 years or more. They're definitely Prog Metal, but they did have that galloping riff in this song that is typical of Power Metal. The vocalist is Russell Allen who teams up with Jorn Lande on collaboration albums.
You must check The Odyssey!!!!
Wolf's face at 15:00 = the one my dog makes when I ask her if she wants to take a bath.
😬
My favourite band since i was 17, they came to Australia for the first time in 20 years in 2015, was surreal to see them live as i never thought it would happen and just an awesome show. I travelled by myself across the country to see them, no way i was missing them lol.
The Edge of Forever should be next on the list.
For me the best Prog singer ! Those guys are so amazing LIVE. My best song from Symphony X, listening this every day Symphony X - Iconoclast
You could check Odyssey too
Amazing epic song
As always, great and fun reaction
I love you guys
I'm with halflifesistah. She gets it. This music is full of joy and life. And it's complex like life is complex.
Nice own-analyses from 20:00 to 30:00. Thanks for that. Makes me feel optimistic about human race and even happy!
She was totally in the groove, perfect reaction! Can tell she understood the value these guys hold.
Dude is nover there like, "Eh, they no A7X but it had gallops, so decent".
Don't worry girl, I understand your confusion. T'was a masterpiece
Hahaha! My folks were cursers but the way you said "Geeze Louise... Mr!" I immediately felt the need to head for my room and think about what I'd done.
🤣
Pretty good song, but really would recommend (outside the obvious Odyssey and also Divine Wings of Tragedy) Awakenings, Evolution, Of Sins and Shadows, Bird-Serpent War/Cataclysm, A Fool's Paradise, or even Candlelight Fantasia over this. I don't mind Wolf's reaction, but I also don't think this is a great way to show him what SX is about.
don't worry doll, you're on the right path, he's just stubborn with power metal. He knows it was a good song
This is Prog!
RIP Andre Matos a true musical genius 💔
watching HalflifeSistah is truly a joy! Love watching you listen to Symphony X for the first time!! Awesome :)
Excellent review!
so pumped that you guys finally got to react to symphony x.
this song is old, their newer stuff is ridiculously heavier.
like reaaaaaaaaaaaaaally heavy. (not death metal heavy, not grind heavy, but heavy for prog metal.)
now that you've reacted to it, i will request some during the streams from the newer albums so you can hear some of it.
😄😃✊🏾🤘🏾💜
Just go straight to Symphony X The Odyssey
Loved the reaction! And damn, she definitely feels the music like I do! You guys definitely got a sub from me! Cheers!
Please react to Fairy Tale from Shaman. The singer and composer passed away yesterday, too young to die. His name is André Matos (in memoriam) He had a great talent and the song is soooo beautifull. He was also the Angra singer
Great song! Great Band! Look at you Sista! You were born for Metal! Wish I could play you some of my acoustic ballads! Think I could get a tear from you! Luv ya!
Candlelight Fantasia, please!!!!
this is a great underated band, for a first encuounter the album paradise lost and electric messiah are more recomended than the older and classic ones like this, because that are more prog and sometimes hard to diggest.
She has good taste
Their song "When All is Lost" could be part of a new cry challenge.
I don't get it. Really I don't. In the beginning when Wolf said how he doesn't like the cliche power metal vocals I said to myself "oh boy, then he's gonna love Russel's god voice". And then he goes and says that his vocals were "okay". In what part of the universe are Russel's vocals just okay? His voice is something to be researched from scientists. He can have insanely deep growls, and then go to beautiful clean screams.
What I do get, is that Inferno is a not a good song for a starter. Hell, I personally believe that Inferno is one of their weaker songs, because of how fast it changes moods. It's called Inferno, but musicaly it sounds too happy sometimes.
Go with "Of Sins and Shadows", "Sea of Lies" or "Absence of Light". They have more character, they are more groovy in their own way, and they have much more concistency without beeing too straightforward.
Olaf Hayer is the voice of Power Metal. He is/was the Voice of Dionysus and Luca Turilli. Another Power Metal Band that I recommend will be:
Insania Stockholm
Europe - Final Countdown!
I get the wanting to see the raw and real stuff even if it is dark. Like looking at the base of the mountains you can see all that it really is, All the jagged peaks and cracks and flaws. Then looking up the mountains seeing the realness rising out of the dark to the pure snow caps and seeing the true form of the mountains. Where as looking just at the snow caps and a thick layers of fog hiding everything, kinda like its bad and the real truth, the fog is to make everything look better than it is like glazing over the truth.
Wow I was also shocked that wolf didnt love this one as well!! If there is one symphony x song he might actually love it would be the sone "Wicked". Love the channel
Love Wicked. Should've been the song used to introduce him
A song I would like to see her react to (with her love of Nightwish and Marco) Nightwish Taikatalvi. Marco sings the whole song in Finnish and its so sweet a song much like a lullaby.
Wolf got the guns 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
power metal is not happy music
you don't need like it, it's not an obligation
Temple of Shadows by Angra is an album that is against religion
there's thrash, death and "black" (unblack) metal with christian lyrics
angra - the shadow hunter
power metal is the disco of metal, come on, it's all pop chord progressions
@@amjan yea power metal is usually fairly happy regardless of lyrics.
Half of sabaton music is about ww2 and it sounds happy.
not a horrible comment. i do agree that this song has some parts that you want it to be over for a better part. there are many good songs from symphony x. they are a great band
The lady is 100% correct, with every single thing she said after listening to the song. Spot on! If its possible for a band to be perfect, its Symphony X.
i love her
My favourite Symphony X songs are Paradise Lost and Iconoclast. They're a bit long but they're great.
You've have to hear the riffs, solos, and vocals of Seven by Symphony X from the album Iconoclast!
It's not considered metal but you should really check out the UFO album Strangers in the night. Start with the any of these songs ... Lights out , Rock Bottom, Love to love. Any of those are a good start.
Kevin Chambers would love for someone to react to this. One of my fave bands.
@@elizaz8486 some you tubers called Kel and Rich react to lights out and rock bottom off Strangers in the night. It's pretty cool . You should check them out. I'm a old guy and I love watching people react to the music I was listening to as a teen.
Just give Russel Allen a more thorough chance. He is one of the greatest metal singers that has ever lived. Symphony X rocks in a way very few bands do. I loved half Sista’s reaction when he didn’t dig it 😂 Great marital advice too.
John Dunston agreed. My band and I always say he sounds like dio and Phil anselmo mixed. He gets the pissed tones perfect then absolutely demolishes the cleaner sections. So under rated.
His solo album "Atomic Soul" is pretty good. It's a fantastic sample of his vocal abilities.
"Who knows what the future holds"
Who knew I would find myself listening to Slipknot voluntarily? XD
You should react to Iced Earth-Dante's Inferno. It is a masterpiece. Btw great reaction.
Dantes Inferno live in Athens. I was there....
@@truth4all01 i wish i was there
I recently just found your channel and I'm loving the reactions! Working my way through various videos after having seen the Nightwish Ghost Love Score 2013 Wacken reaction.
I totally get where Wolf is coming from with the distaste for the higher range and sharp timbred power metal vocalists. I like power metal, but I just can't with the vocals from bands like Sonata Arctica, Stratovarius, et al. Give me bands like Blind Guardian and Kamelot (Roy Khan).
Speaking of which, might you consider reacting to Kamelot - Elizabeth (the live version from One Cold Winter's Night)?
You know some other bands and songs you should check out are (The agonist - And their eulogies sang me to sleep ,Butcher Babies - Monsters Ball , Jinger - Teacher , Teacher , Overkill -battle ) . If You listen to them you would probably like at least one .
Listen to her. Pure wisdom. Great song! Love when a song is varied like this one❤❤ I don't understand him either. :P
Never reject power metal, sir. (Usually) ultimate storytelling in music.
Symphony X!!!!!!!! Thank you!
Pure insanity Russell Allen is a master singer TSO,Symphony X,Adrenaline Mob etc but alot more Symphony X please!!
You should listen to The Agonist Their eulogies sing me to sleep and their new one In The Vertigo back to back with the to different singers . Both singers are female.Also check out DMG Reson. The Agonist is similar to Jinger but older .
Impeding doom=murderer
I think you guys should try "In My Darkest Hour" and "Charon" (I've not seen anyone react to those), and the whole Underworld album for darker lyrical content from Symphony X. The vocals are incredible and the music darker and heavier than this song.
You should really and i mean really react to "When all is lost" from them, it has it all, amazing singing.
Best fucking band ever !
Please React to the power metal band Angra-Temple of Hate. The singer (Andre Matos) of this excellent and very talented brazilian band has recently died from a heart attack, I think doing this will be a great tribute to him. All the members of the band are great musicians.
R. I. P. Andre Matos

@@HalfLifeSistah Yes I´ve seen this video. Please react to Fairy Tale - Shaman.
Fun to play with guitar but u should listen odyssey. It's masterpiece.
I understand Wolf's conundrum. Symphony X is an incredible band, and the guys have top notch technical chops, but they have grown a lot as songwriters and composers, as well as their production. This is one of their earlier songs, when the transitions and time changes sounded more forced.
I would recommend some of their more recent songs. Check out "Serpent's Kiss", "Iconoclast", or "To Hell And Back". You will be highly impressed.
I feel like Symphony X have three different identities.
They have a commercial side with typical power metal songs which are easy to listen to and don't leave you with much; personally not a big fan of those, which are prevalent in their latest albums, especially after Odyssey.
Then they have a clean, powerful, impactful side that shows brightly in songs like the one you listened to. So energetic!
And then they have their epic journeys, Odyssey (the track of the homonymous album) is a perfect example, and that's my absolute favorite side of Symphony X and the main reason why I fell in love with them many years ago.
You should at the very least do yourselves a favor and listen to that song, which could be an album by itself really. And if you like that, or don't like that tbh, give the entire album "V: The New Mythology Suite" a fair shot, because I think it's their peak, and you will not find anything like that anywhere else. It's truly amazing.
Thank you for these videos and your honesty!
I was honestly surprised too by Wolf, especially after the beautiful self-analysis after the song, because I feel like I had the same feelings and upbringing he did, which is part of the reason why I like this kind of music so much! (even his Dragonforce bit was basically me talking haha) Maybe it was simply not a good song to start with.
I'd personally start with the album Twilight in Olympus.
Something from Primal Fear and album Nuclear Fire 🤘
Sounds like Dream Theater if sung by Mike Patton and with guitar played by Dime-bag Darrell but produced for a skateboard video game in the late 2000's, to mimic the sound of the late 80's (think Steel Panther as they relate to hair rock.) I'll be impressed if you're following 'cause I'm not even sure if I am Wolf :P Not bad in the slightest and I could see how people would love it but it's just not an appealing sound to me.
the only song I really love by this band is "In th Dragon's Den". But I never listened to their whole discography. Love the first measures of this one though, the drum/bass pattern on the opening riff is of the best taste, very different from the guitar speedy part, I really like that kind of contrasts. Thanks for sharing this song!
I'm going to suggest Yebba my mind........ because as a fan of yours I want to gift you something that will change your life forever.
One last thing: I love youuuuuuuuuu
gorgeous couple.
I get Wolf's point. Even though this is one of the 3 or 4 songs i love from Symphony X, and I consider Russell Allen one of the best singers in the biz. I struggle liking every other song they release. Mainly because I like my music to be direct, to just go for what I like and not be overcomplicated. I feel like this genre escapes my comprehension, thus making it not totally enjoyable.
Symphony x Rulez ...... is one of the best metal band on this moment
You should definitely listen to Shadow Gallery, I know you guys will like it. For me they are the finest Progressive Metal act ever.
Love symphony x! Do sea of lies next or a fools paradise please
awesome choices!
Amaranthe - Hunger
i am 74 so i guess i am middle aged! 💚🛠
what happened to Accolade II ? :(
First, sorry my pooor english, Here is is something cool, and finnish for you... Yeah, lyrics is finnis but a hard and soft metal is univerval lanquage anyway...This is something for you from cold, cold land, land of true metalmusic.. land .. Finland.. You find this song : Nuket - Askeleet,,,
Make 1 from Moonspell álbum wolfheart!! Or irrelligius!!
It would be nice if there'd be a reaction for The Scarecrow by Avantasia. The band has been touring around the globe and still is right now. Tobias Sammet from Edguy is the lead singer in this, so this ought to be a good reaction for you.
Hahaha, excellent! Sistah is right, though.
It sounded compressed like playing in a little room with no acoustics and the voice like it's recorded seperately from the music and just pasted over it. I like this kind of music, but not this song and the singer. It just didn't sound like a glued together piece. But a few riffs were very cool I'll give it that.
But hopefully there's more to come. A bands sound changes from different periods in time. So I'm open for more picks and I might check out some live videos. "Not resonating", exactly my feelings towards this song.
They got Jens Bogren to mix the albums after this one and guitarist/songwriter Michael Romeo started using tube amps instead of Line6 POD. Check out
_Paradise_ _Lost_ , _Iconoclast_ and _Underworld_ .
Honestly, they are good musicians and the vocalist is extremely talented, but it's a bit of cheese metal that seems stuck in the early eighties stylistically. What really got me to appreciate them more was their live performance at Bloodstock of "Set the World on Fire." I think you'll love it Wolf and I know Sistah will freak out.
Should have done domination
king of terrors
Next time pick a song from their album V - The New Mythology Suite. Every song on that album is awesome.
loved the reaction :) also check out the witching hour by symphony x
Wake up son. Symphony X is amazing.
This is definitely not one of their best. I'd suggest Without You, The End of Innocence, Children of a Faceless God, Reign in Madness, Awakenings or Communion and the Oracle as the next one. All very beautiful songs!
?🧐🤔 I don't see damnation game, smoke and mirrors, king of terror, the accolade... The songs you mentioned is like going to Ben& Jerry's and ordering vanilla
@@viscant1477 You are vanilla.
@@T1hitsTheHighestNote ppfftt hahaha aight just remember to stay away 300 yards away from the middle school zones🤣
"Oy, Pechal-Toska" Arkona
This is Russian folk metal
Wolf hit upon one of the pitfalls of prog metal: With all those changes, there's the ever-present risk of the change going in a direction that doesn't work for the listener. I think that's one of the reasons that RUSH is a polarizing band, where people either love them or hate them, even from album to album, or song to song. When your band is doing so many experiments, some will soar, and some will suck.
It's highly subjective, girl. Don't judge him too harshly for it.
Sistah you should totally listen to the whole album V - The New Mythology Suite by Symphony X
Please do "Stand Away"! Angra it's the supra sumo of Melodic Metal!
This song rates pretty low on my SX meter. I hope you'll listen to something from their older albums, "The edge of forever" is a great one.
Good to know their best album ever is so low on your "SX Meter".
Lol terrible recommendation
@@johnpatroshoes Why are you reading year old comments and then responding to them?
What about some more Frog Leap Studios Reaction's.
I would have chosen the next track of that same album. ;)
Cannot wait when you'll arrive to mister Gary Moore land. In year 1989 probably.
This was a weird song to pick for a 1st-it's ok, but not mind blowing. I think Wolf would like the later albums. Russell's voice gets better, stuff gets heavier. I think he ought to start with Paradise Lost, Iconoclast or Underworld. Of course, there's no accounting for taste in voices- although if someone likes Dio and Dickinson, I don't know how they wouldnt like Russ Allen, too.
she talks so fast in the intro 😂😂
I love you guys. I love the journey. Opeth blackwater park. And Katatonia please
if you dont like this you're going to hate Accolade II, even I don't care for that song.
