- I've reacted to Archspire once before, but for some reason never really dug into their discography. HOLY COW I need to make up for lost time! The musicianship here is unreal. I Love how Oli manages to vocalize ad breakneck speeds and still keep from dominating the song. If the rest of their discography is this strong, homies, I'm gonnna have to Stay Tech!

I was just wondering how in the world you hadn't covered Oliver's batshit insane vocals yet, and here we are. NICE . Looking forward to this one.
I actually covered Archspire a LONG time ago, 4 years by the date of the video. I was still new to youtube and had no idea how to act on camera, but the info is good! th-cam.com/video/LVSprWdlNjU/w-d-xo.htmlsi=N1fhFrcHZUVlIAVK
@@KardavoxAcademy I think that was actually the first one of your videos I saw and I think I subbed pretty much immediately. I really didn't pick up on that at all.
OLIVER lmao
I mean yeah, that's his name lol. I get that most people call him Oli but given that I don't know that guy I went with the formal version.@@kernoleary1394
@KardavoxAcademy thanks for the awesome feedback dude! I'd love to come on the channel sometime!
How did this comment go unnoticed!?
Legend!!!
@@nicolaiaubert4127not official
Learning Archspire's songs is one of the most fun, challenging and eye-opening thing you can do as a vocalist. Oli puts such an enormous amount of work into not only technique, but also into his lyricism and vocal patterns. Huge inspiration!
Absolutely!
Dean Lamb said something interesting in an interview about how they treat the vocal rhythm as an instrumental part basically
Definitely agree with your opinion “This is some of the best metal musicianship I have heard”
And this album of theirs incorporates so many classical music influences, especially in the chord progressions/riffs used
@@liamblack4840 I was on acid a few months ago while listening to this album and had the revelation that some modern metal is just classical music of our era. Fuckin' awesome lol
@@fozgoth literally like I bet if any classical musicians from way back were ghosts who stuck around and watched the evolution of music, they would absolutely LOVE modern metal. Beautiful mix of talent, emotion and many times storytelling in lots of metal, as well as expressive, detailed, poetic and emotional lyrics.
This entire album is pure gold, easily one of my favorite releases in the last several years.
I think I heard Dean discuss it in an interview, but _apparently_ for some of Oli's exceptionally long vocal lines, he developed some kind of inhale technique. It allows him to do traditional false cord growls and then seamlessly continue the same line, but while inhaling.
Now, I don't know how accurate this is, but it may be worth asking Oli about it if you ever do get the chance to interview him.
i'm pretty sure it's circular breathing, didgeridoo players use it and I think that's how he realised it
@@sethmartin8038 I'm also guessing that's the basis for it. What's interesting is that he's able to maintain the same vocal tonality as when he breathes out, which is quite a step above just the breathing element.
I think that was done in the studio for doubling on some lines. He does do inhale vocals on some tracks, but that's different. Still sick af though.
@@sethmartin8038 i dont know if circular breathing is possible while screaming, especially with inhales because it requires you using your cheeks to expel air but that doesnt work when your lips are really open
its an inhale technique where he cuts the airflow in between each syllable. Its not for doing longer lines, its just to give the fast delivery a unique texture. He does it on the line "nothing ever written could define the global hell to follow."
Having crowdfunded this video and enjoy the perks that came along with that, I am proud of what this band created. See them live if possible. They are amazing live.
I saw them live and he never was hard for breath even at the end of the set. Couldn't believe it.
I was just as blown away as you and basically had that album on repeat for a week straight when I found it a few months ago dude! They are the gold standard in sheer technical ability, truly phenomenal!
Absolutely, I definitely need to spin this whole record more!
Archspire is so good. Glad you came back to 'em. Dive into the lyrics. All of their albums hide a unified sci-fi horror plot that is really compelling. You are going to have so many head bangs stored up for when your disc heals.
17:31 "His vocal composition was kind of like a tide moving over the beach of that riff."
bruh
that's some next level on-the-fly poetry🤘
now I just gotta figure out how to do that on command rather than lose my train of thought half the time
So glad you loved the song! I’ve seen Archspire in concert three different times and they’re just as impressive live. Oli kills it! But there is something extremely enjoyable about listening to them in the car or headphones and just fully immersing in the music and vocals. The music video for Drone Corpse Aviator is also amazing if you’re interested, it’s my personal favorite track on the record (and the video’s awesome too).
Also, the video was near the end when I was writing the initial comment out, but it would be so cool if you brought him on! If you did a co-reaction to Drone Corpse Aviator I’d be the happiest fan in the world.
I just got into Archspire recently!! I'd been watching Dean's channel for a while and didn't like the vocals that much but they won me over after a couple weeks in the end. I'm obseeeeeesssed
I would LOVE and interview with Oli! Great guy who puts a lot of thought in his vocals

There’s a lyric video too, and it’s fucking wild seeing how fast he goes. Like dude I can’t even read that fast!
every person i have seen react to archspire, that have a professional capacity, have said the same thing about the musicality of the songs. Everyone talks about their incredible skill. I am still riding the new to archspire train and loving it.
Saw these guys live last year and they are incredibly tight. Great performers, and very goofy as well.
One part you missed is that Oli also does a lot of inhale vocals littered throughout each song. Keep an ear out for the parts and you can find them easy enough
I love these videos. Especially when you cover less know about vocalists like him. Looking forward to the premiere
"His vocal composition was like a tide, moving over the beach of that riff." Well said 🤘
Thanks!
Mark talking about how he Likes oldschool false chords Made me Wish for a format that is focused on Our elderly veterans of Cookie Monster Sounds.
They all paved the Road we now Walk on, I think we should honor this in some way, even If one does Not Like the sound of them.
I got into your channel back when you first put out your Archspire video forever ago, and I've been a fan of this channel ever since. Glad to see you finally doing another song, and look forward to (hopefully) seeing more.
I fucking love that guitar-vocal riff you were getting in on. Cool to hear you really dig a song you're reviewing.
Saw them live a few months ago, best performance I've ever seen.
I mean yeah sure Oli has a gimmick and runs with it you’d be dumb not to. But as you said it’s so much more than that, it’s not just about the vocals but the intricate instrumentals behind Archspire has just always been fun to listen to and Bleed the Future took it up a notch with melodic playing, it elevated them.
They should re-record the song and put the "DEAN LAMB" right into that part where you stopped it
Archspire is my favorite band!! Cool reaction
This has been a staple on my Playlists since it came out. Fantastic band.
Oh yeah, can't wait for it. I am excited to see what you have to say on his speed and technique :D. Pls take a look at Carnosus!!!
I saw them live last year and it was one of the most intense experiences. Then chicken suit twister. Then more of the most intense experiences again. They had an album quality live show and oli hits every single vocal phrase no matter how fast
Thanks for doing one of my patreon recommendations!!!! This song is so killer and I loved all the tips you had for FC vocals. I hope the guys in Archspire see this and maybe you get Oli on the channel
On Dean's channel, he mentioned how Tobi showed up at rehearsals with that riff (called the "Games of Thrones" riff) and it just fit perfectly to give that more melodic vibe.. Savage!
Archspires music is incredible, but my favourite thing about them is their personalities in contrast with their skill. They're some of the most technically proficient guys around, but they're absolutely chaotic, dysfunctional, mad Canadian nerds who have fun jamming together. I love listening to podcasts with the band just to hear them interact with one another.
Was just thinking a few hours ago how cool it would be to see you react to Archspire!
I Listen to your band all the time, had no idea you made videos, this is sick!
thank you for covering this track. your insight is always helpful. gotta appreciate covering Archspire as well! back to practicing for me
#ExpectThePause 😂
The more I listen to Archspire the more i appreciate their music
Oli has some videos about his breath control, he does the same thing as with didgeridoo, where it's a kind of circular breathing pattern IIRC
Oof, I got the C5-C6 spinal stenosis, I feel your pain lol. Love your reactions man. Keep on keepin on 🤘
They are so good live really got the place moving to 🤘🏻
Yes man, absolutelty you should get Dean on the channel, I'm not sure if he actually messes with the production that much but he's most definitely got his toes in the writing process, and he's done many interviews in the past!
Their last album is just amazing!! And so was relentless mutation. And not only Dean, they're all amazing musician! And you gotta love the guy having to clean the mess like after drone corpse aviator!! 😅
These guys and the guys from First Fragment are the most talented musicians I know. I highly recommend listening to First Fragment when you can! Go with Pantheum or Solus. The bass guitarist "Forest" is a bass god.
Great video! Love this song and the insane delivery of the vocals therein. Another band you should be talking about is Disembodied Tyrant and Blake Mullens, who wrote and produced everything in his project. I know a lot of people have talked about the song he did with Synestia and Ben Duerr, "The Poetic Edda," but their other song on the single/EP is "I, the Devourer" where Blake does the vocals. And wow, his vocals are great! There are some particularly disgustingly tasty moments at the end of the song, but really the whole song is fantastic as well.
I do hope you'll check it out on the channel sometime. 🙂
i learned false chord through goblin vocals and a batman impression lmaooooo
Sonivinos is a pretty cool tech death too
... Did they glue bass pickups to the VR headsets at the beginning...? I'm not super familiar with VR but it looks like they just strapped a massive six-string bass humbucker to that woman's face.
These guys are so fun.
Now I need to hear you do Rap God in your style.
we need Oli on the channel)
Agreed!
Mark you gotta check out Austin Dickeys project Dark Watch! They just released the deluxe edition of their debut EP, along with a TRIPLE music video! It has 3 tracks but it’s still only about 6 mins long, and there’s definitely a bunch of vocals that are worth talking about!
I know Dave Otero recorded, I believe he produced, mixed & mastered
If you want a fun video, check out Archspire - Calamus Will Animate (official karaoke video)
You will get up close and personal with Oli while singing so you can get a good look at it, the video has some humour to it too. It's a bit older, but still a good time! :)
I'll check it out!
@kardavoxacademy please do archspire golden mouth of ruin.
I'm just loving how Dean is trying to sell everyone on D&D in the video 😂
Is that the same janitor that's in drone corpse aviator at the end? If so I feel for him
Haha, maybe!
*violently pauses video*
DEAN LAMB!!
*resumes*
If I could suggest a better term for compression, I'd use controlled closure instead, I think it fits, think of it as closing your hand into a fist, you juste need to close it, not tension needed
should checkout -summoning the lich-
The song is from 2021 actually, but the music video is newer.
literally tech death kings right now
@@Spinetapnah archspire is on a completely different universe from both nile and cryptopsy (tho cryptopsy has better legacy due to none so vile)
@@Spinetap key word is "right now" i don't consider them the greatest ever, that would be spawn of possession
@@Spinetap i mean that's the best thing about music it's more interesting when we disagree i LOVE sop one of my fav bands of all time
Production is "The Back of Dave Otero's Head"
mr. vox your beard is looking immaculate
WE CARE ABOUT YOUR HEALTH, MARK.
they dont define techdeath but they definitely have their own monster breed of it
They raised the bar on techdeath it will be hard for new bands to stand out.
Loved the video!
Please please, check the band "Luck won't save you" They are NUTS! "Doom chimes are ringing" Would be a good pick. Also "So meaningless" or any song, they are all good!
-will keep asking until its done
Ollie practices circle breathing so he can do that indefinitely
11:56
I assume you were talking about Captain Jack Sparrow, who wouldn't want to talk about Captain Jack Sparrow?
Oli has this weird technique where he will switch to inhale to take in air after a long exhale run.
Hey Mark, you should check out the new Darkwatch song from Austin Dickey. It is awesome!
I'll do my best!
@@KardavoxAcademy Nice! Hopefully with Mr Dickey himself would be even more awesome!
So you still didnt listen to their 2021 Album? This song is from this, its "just" the video thats new..
You wanted to see this performed live - they started their live show with this song here: th-cam.com/video/GZVg1IBimHo/w-d-xo.html
I have been asking for AGES for you to do Archspire - Calamus Will Animate (official karaoke video) - shows his technique - but seems that if you're not a paying fan...
the vocals remind me a lot of Aeon
I can see that!
@@KardavoxAcademy I like that you know who they are, I didn't even think about that while posting it. Their subject matter keeps them a little out of the mainstream. But they are talented.
2nd rhythm is settled on
?
@@RM-xq7gf what. Do I need to demonstrate with my unorthodox playing?
@@morefish469syes
Tech death is defined by Necrophagist.
Oliver Rae Aleron=Bodododobodododo bodododobodododo bodododobodododo bodododobodododo
this thing is straight silly xD
The song is awesome, the music video not so much. But that is just my opinion.
BRO IS ONTO NOTHING, he reminds of a random bob's burger npc
