As a bass player, I feel underappreciated. This guy is shredding his bass and there's no reaction. I guess that's the life of a bass player.
As a guitar player, this band has made me more interested in picking up the bass. As much great things this band does, the basslines is what I love most.
Don't worry. Some of us married bass players and we appreciate you. :3
Sign of a good bass player. Can be exceptionally competent and carry a song without being noticed. We're noticed when we aren't there ;).
Aleksander Mathisen Engen The bass might not get alot of mention because there is just SO much other stuff going on. Fact is, you may not be noticed when you're there, but take that bass guitar out of the mix and you will be SORELY missed.
The bass was the first thing that stood out to me in this song.
OMG, their drummer is off the freakin CHAIN!
Thank ya'll! New music to explore!!
Before The Dawn - Throne of Ice
Be'lakor - Ve'nator
Insomnium - While We Sleep
Epica - Unleashed
Sojourner - Bound by Blood
I could go on and on..
RBQuark92 definitely Venator or Abeyance by Be'lakor
If u guys want more things from the new album i recomend Eyrie(my fav from Urn) older stuff i recomend Forget Not and Devour Me Colossus
Eyrie is an amazing song. Didn't like it at first, but it grew on me and is now my favourite from the album. The drumwork is absolutely fantastic
Tapestry of the Starless Abstract is also one of my favourites, and one of their best lyrically imo, and Pyrrhic is one of their more underrated songs but one of my favorite musically. Everyone mentions Painters of the Tempest and Devour Me Collosus when discussing Citadel. I rarely every hear anyone mention Pyrrhic but it's one of my personal favourites
yes 3rd album ist actually the worst, but relatively easy to understand
best song in the album for me
When I saw them live it was their first US tour and I didn’t know anything about them. They were opening for Cradle of Filth in Denver, Gothic Theatre 2016 and they did so great that I was googling their music during the show. Very mesmerizing skills and outstanding performance. The outro of the song “Pyrrhic” was so emotional that I almost cried watching it live. You guys should react to it next.
On the list !
Yes man! Please you'll be mind-blown by the song Pyrrhic. Vin, Sori give it a shot !
Rod Jubair I saw them for the first time over a year ago brfore I actually started listening to em. Left the show early so I missed almost their entire set. Still kicking myself for it 👎😒👎 I'll probably be seeing em in September though.
Decapitated - Spheres Of Madness
Dying Fetus - Subjected To A Beating
So this is probably my favorite band ever. The way you guys go so into depth on everything is so incredible to hear and to hear your interpretations. My personal favorite song of theirs is probably 'Tapestry of the Starless Abstract' from Portal of I. There are so many elements to the song and I would love to hear your interpretations of it and see what all you guys pick up on.
You should check out the interview we did with xen!
I've seen it and was thoroughly impressed with it. Learned a lot I actually didn't know about the band. (And slightly jealous that you got an interview after hearing one song, but yeah lol). They have some really incredible stuff.
Tapestries is what sold me to NeO. I eared Forget Not once, got completely mesmerized and went then to checkout the whole album. The moment Tapestries kicked in I was completely sucked into the music as if it was a black hole. So tight, so gloomy back metal inspired first part. Proud patreon supporter.
I am as well dude. They deserve all the patrons they can get. But yeah, Tapestry is so mesmerizing. There's so much concrete poetry going into that song that it blows me away. I mean, during part of it it actually sounds like they are weaving a musical tapestry.
Death pfp and NeO is your favorite band? Are you me?
Death - Lack of Comprehension
THIS is the first song I ever heard by NeO, I was instantly hooked. These guys are not only musical masters but they are obviously top tier poets. Woke up to go to work and saw this notification. Thanks for a great start to my work day.
Painters in the Tempest or Of Petrichor Weaves Black Noise next. Not that Intra Venus is a subpar song by any means, but both Painters and Petrichor are better than Intra Venus. The bottom line is Ne Obliviscaris simply doesn't make bad songs. And if they do I have yet to hear one. Incredible, groundbreaking sonic tapestries these guys are weaving.
Don't say favorite band till you have heard more Vektor though, another band who doesn't have bad songs! Try Forest of Legend from them. Those vocals will continue to grow on you over time (like a very angry, raspy, Halford)
And since it sounds like y'all are going to see Ne Obliviscaris, you need to listen to more Wintersun since they are the headliners. Try Loneliness (Winter) from Wintersun for your next song from them, a very emotional yet heavy song written for the death of Jari's (singer, guitarist, songwriter) father.
I will note when you were talking about the chorus, and mentioned about euphoric suffering. Even in christianity (though I think this is more a catholic thing, heh) suffering is almost revered. When you look at the concept of how much Jesus suffered. Wether or not you believe he was the son of God or not, dude went through some shit. And I think when you look at society we talk about how suffering breeds character. And there is to me alot of truth in that. Most of the coolest, most interesting people I know have been through some serious stuff. So if you take Euphoria as a sort of symbol of enlightenment, I think that explains that line completely. And in a way the song. Because I think this song is about life. Intra Venus. We start life and are born, we experience things, we experience pain, we experience loss, joy. And then at the last, in the end, we die. The loom is the tapestry we all weave as we pass through our life's journey, intersecting with everyone else to weave this huge giant portrait of existance. Thats my take on this beautiful song anyways.
Someone (I think it was Xen) said in response to a youtube comment on one of their official songs (I think it was Of Petrichor Weaves Black Noise) that their songs are intentionally somewhat vague so people can intepret the songs in their own way. And to me I think thats brilliant because it makes the song connect to you on a more personal level than a song you know is about a specific thing that may not be relevant to your life experience.
Brilliant comment!!
And Plague Flowers The Kaleidoscope!
they've already done it.
Ah....Righty-o
On Vin's reasons not to give it a 10, I feel that slapping a few lines of happy ending on would take away the strength of this journey of dwelling in the darkness. Looking up from this dark place, discovering you've gained the strength to rise and are no longer dwelling but dreaming of hope is a very strong turning point in this journey. Ending on the journey back and living happy ever after would steal the spotlight away from this incredible strong and pivotal feeling.
This is something I've often thought when Vin wants lyrics to be more positive or focus more on solutions rather than jus talking negative. By leaving that out or just hinting about it it is on the listeners shoulders to continue the journey and discovering things by yourself is way more powerful than consuming things that are all spelled out for you.
Good point IMO.
These guys are one of my favorite bands of all time... Seen them live once and it was amazing. I was excited about your reaction since you loved the first one so much. I'm not disappointed.
Awesome review guys this is becoming a favourite mine along with:
Fleshgod Apocalypse - Epilogue
Ex Deo - I, Caligvla
Septicflesh - Anubis
Love your lyric breakdowns... and the fact that you look into all these genres. Kudos... much love and respect.. All the way from Cape Town..
Oh yeah... my profile pic is me standing with Nergal, just thought it would be cool to let you know
I knew Vin was gonna like the awesome guitar/violin solo. This is my favorite Ne Obliviscaris song now, it used to be Forget Not. Sori would like Forget Not , for certain.
Sergio Martinez Intra Venus has nothing on Forget Not, :p
@@0rthogonal To each his own, but Ne Obliviscaris writes great stuff nonetheless!
NeO - painters of the tempest pt 2 or devour me colossus
Painters in the Tempest Part 2 (Triptych Lux) is I think their best song that I've heard. And the first and second part are instrumental, so they wouldn't miss anything if they chose to do just Part 2. But honestly I'd say just do the whole thing. I think its about 5 mins extra to do parts 1 and 2.
Devour Me, Colossus is the most powerful live song I've ever seen.
As the Icicles Fall is a good one too
maidens seventh son of a seventh son and neo.s citadel are my favorite albums.
@@khellendross3573
The whole Citadel LP is, imho, their strongest work thusfar.
Urn is more polished... But lacks that vibe.
Forget Not (their namesake) is my personal favorite however... Due to the massive amount of acoustic and how it slowly and cleanly, crescendos into just BRUTAL METAL. 👌 Gonna be hard for these Emu rape victims to top that one... For me.
...but who the fuck am I? 🤗
It's about time. Next do Urn part 1&2. You will love it!
Another NeO song. Oh shit son!
That'd be great, that or "Gallows Hymn".
For the inevitable next NeO song, I recommend Devour Me, Colossus. It's my personal favorite of theirs - I remember hearing it for the first time and needing to pick my jaw back up off the floor afterwards.
CloudMountainJuror Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes
Brilliant, Technical, and clean vocals! This band continues to Amaze. Takes you to another level
Seen em live twice. Both times they were absolutely incredible.
I actually really liked this song. First time hearing it. Lyrically this writer is really good. Very poetic. Really enjoyed your interpretation of the lyrics.
I have a request. Apocalypse Orchestra The Garden of Earthly Delights (video).
Deftones - Leathers
Nightwish - The greatest show on earth
Worth of its name
See if you can get an interview with Devin Townsend. Now that would be interesting because he's a very deep and funny guy!
Digging that fret-less bass.
I don't think it's a fretless bass
You guys are such fun to watch...thanks
You guys need to listen to some more Opeth
Seriously, their influence on this band is undeniable. Especially from their first two albums for this song. DAT BASS.
secretaprentice11 one can NEVER react to too much Opeth 👍👍👍
yeah, Opeth is missing, they have not done it so far, right? would be cool
Voto Grav They've only reacted to Harlequin Forest so far.
Fuck Opeth
Bathory - Ring of Gold
To forgive is to Suffer - Death
Yall should make a compilation video of ur most emotional reactions....that would be great!! Another great video guys 👍😃
this is maybe my favorite song off this album, its a great single with a great video :) especially love tim's chorus. I always have a soft spot for really intense and fast drums with little else going on. Whenever you guys go back for a 3rd song i would super recommend Painters of the Tempest parts I, II and III, its a very long song but it is my favorite of theirs and one of my all time favorite songs (not something i say often!) the last subpart of part II is the best piece of music they have made imo, and part II also has my favorite solo section they have done
100% agree!
I was lucky enough to see them live. Easily the best 1,5 hour of my life. The whole crowd went crazy, they sound like a thunder!
I've seen them live twice, just amazing
Opeth - Lotus Eater
Preferably the live video from Royal Albert Hall 👌
I just went through the comments too see what the people want. There are some great bands being requested that you'll need to do. Obscura, Cynic, Persephone and more Opeth.
You have to do neo - painters of the tempest part ii triptych lux next!!
I really love how they also mix in classical riffs as well!
one of the best band out there... that freaking bass..🤘🏻
Shoutout to the new big homie patreons! Welcome to the Village.
If Sori likes "the combination of clean and death," Vin needs to give Opeth another try. That's their bread and butter, and Opeth can turn clean/death on a dime.
Gunna see these guys live in September. They will be touring with Wintersun. Check out Wintersun's song "Time".
BEYOND CREATION - "Omnipresent Perception" They have an incredibly similar bass sound!
And Dethklok- "Dethharmonic"
As always thanks for your videos, this one actually made me buy the whole Urn Album by NeO
From a Musical standpoint: Violin and Keyboards are actually not all that different in the context of metal music. It seemingly means profoundly different instruments but if you pay attention, there's no *Piano* pieces on most metal songs meaning that the keyboard player is not doing complex interactions with counter-point melodies like some Piano players do (Think Call and response but on your Left and Right hand only) most metal keyboard players focus on slower, more delicate melodies and very basic chords, usually on string voicings on the synthesizer. So if you would take away the keyboard from guys like Nightwish and replace it with an actual Violinist you actually wouldn't notice *that much* of a difference.
Time to play some rush
Love this video love the song. Not going to lie I was out checking if it is was my fire alarm beeping at me.
There is so much more from this band that’s worth checking out.
Even though I've listened to this entire album probably 100 times through now, I got chills at the end watching you guys listening to it. Vin's exclamation "favourite band!" brought back the feelings I felt when I first heard these guys and came to a similar conclusion.
Their musicianship is insane and their ability to write such a complex song that comes across as a single cohesive piece of art just blows my mind.
You two really need to see them live. The contrasting stage presence of TIm and Xen adds so much to the experience.
Both shows, I've just closed my eyes for some parts and let the music take me somewhere else. I've never had such intense emotions from music as I've had at NeO shows.
Nightwish - Greatest Show on Earth
BLIND GUARDIAN ;)
Also, more Ne Obliviscaris - Forget Not
bass player absolutely killed it on this track
yea, poor bass guy never gets any love but as Vin would say, he's a bad, bad man.
Khellendross The whole band is mint, not a weak link in the bunch.
Brandon, if I recall his name. Replaced when he was going through some legal issues, for damage control. I think it was pretty shit how it panned out, I hope to hear he is back in the ranks cause he is the highlight of the band for me. Alternatively, I am pretty sure we live in the same town, I would kidnap him until he had stockholm then get him to play bass for me ;)
lol if you ever read this Mr Bass God, Hit me up on face by my name, I would seriously love to jam with such talent, and I live local, and yes.......... I can pluck da strings okz ;)
Also I know your mate, Tane, quality people.......
I doubt that will happen unfortunately. I to agree it was kinda sad what happened. But the new bass player is incredible. Watch some new live videos with him, he's just as good if not better than Cygnus. (no relation to the Vektor story about Cygnus Terminal).
Their live performance is amazing, I'm very happy you get to experience that.
I understand not listening to other songs because you want to be able to make more reaction videos. But if you are going to see them live anyway, just grant yourselves the joy of listening to say a full album over and over again at home and enjoying the live performance even more because in my experience listening to songs you know live really enhances the live experience.
I had a chance to listen to them here in Britain, but I had a GCSE exam when they were performing. I’m so sad :(
Primordial - Coffin ships
Oh man! That song packs a punch
Fuck yeah it does, I'd imagine Vin might find it a bit boring
Did you know that NeO is going to tour the US this fall btw ? Excellent chance to meet them btw.
I keep hearing a fire alarm chirping in a lot of your videos.
"Plus,it brought me back to the bathroom" - Vin
Those kick drums man .........jeeeeeez 😎
Sid Greenhalgh Ah yes, the soothing pitter-patter of lil double bass drums.
BTW I am finding you guys have great taste in Metal :)
Maybe a few reactions I wasn't on the same page with, but for the most part you guys are of the same mind as me on the tunes. I can't even get into my Emails since I was forced to change my password and forgot it. But as soon as I get it sorted out I will sign onto patrion and starting showing some love for your hard work.
To say I am impressed with the efforts you guys are putting in would be selling you both short. Especially the effort you have made to bringing a heap of people together as a community that is caring and respectful of each other. I have heard you mention a few sour grapes, but it must be few cause all I see is positive feedback. Keep up the good work :)
And yes you are right on what a loom is Sori ;)
Really loved the breakdown of the lyrics! Gonna continue requesting Ne Obliviscaris's fellow Aussies, Advent Sorrow - Pestilence Shall Come. As I've stated before, I'd love to see your reaction and overall dissection of the lyrics of the song. Especially considering they're a Black Metal band that lyrically addresses the realistic darkness found within the human condition.
Ohhhh shit. I requested this song when you did the last one.
Wait until you hear them in concert then - freaking amazing band. Just as tight - if not more so - live.
Hey our band just released our first EP! It's symphonic metal, Emetropia - Procession of the Kings
You guys won't be disappointed by Bloody Angel by Avatar, I just don't see you guys not liking it. It's very stripped down and simple, but gives a good punch when the time is right and the story is deep, but only if accompanied by the video
Avatar are just good! All the songs off Hail the Apocalypse are gold.
I have seen Ne Obliviscaris live, in 2010 when they supported Soilwork. Then I saw them in 2018, live, same venue, when they were headlining. My reaction was like Vin's, but in 2010 before they were big or well known. They are just fucking amazing!!! If you want some more of that "my god, that music is just beautiful I want to tear up", check out Amiensus. Their album "Restoration" gives me similar feelings.
Love the drumming in this song! Dan presland is a beast
7:05 - when the solo comes at just the right moment: love the interplay between guitar and violin
Fuck yes. They're even better live. Don't miss them.
man ive forgotten how great this band is.
Next Insomnium- weather the storm. You guys are gonna love this song. The song is so uplifting.
43:20 The bald guy is Benjamin Barret, he's French, and he does a lot of the composition. I think Intra Venus was entirely composed by him. He's really cool and friendly, I'm sure you'd be able to get an interview with him.
awesome that you did NeO again. recommendations for you guys: devour me colossus part 1: blackholes (band has gone on record as saying that it is their favourite song) or you could do a song that never gets reacts, one of my favourites: of petrichor weaves black noise.
"You can't know true happiness without knowing true misery"
This is my fav band atm also. My favorite thing is also the dynamics between extremely beautiful and insane deathmetal. Listen to Eyrie next, my fav song of them. I just saw them live a few months back and they are incredible, especially Tim is fucking electric, it is fucking insane seeing him play violin and then headbang like crazy and then right back to violin. They have a NA tour later this year supporting Wintersun who also are insane live (have seen them 4 times), this will be a dream lineup to see. Too bad they are not doing Europe with that lineup :(
Best bass guitarist ever……
You guys should make a video on any of the songs made by ghost... stuff like year zero or cirice. Your lyrical breakdowns are insane!!
"youre not white youre just melaninly challenged" I was crying lmao ive never heard that before
If you liked this, you'll love Weltseele by Obscura!
Blub I just got the album that song is off of at an old music store the other day.
Blub ANY Obscura would be great, throw in some Allaegeon and Beyond Creation as well.
anaal nathrakh - a metaphor for the dead
Gonna have to welcome you to the mesmerized. Ne is the tops, along with Amorphis
Carcass - Embodiment
Yes!
Cynic - Veil Of Maya
You guys should see the more philosophical reasoning in metal. The epistemological legacy of aristotle from which christians borrowed alot of concepts. The Nietzsche definition of nihilism which mean believing in something like religion. The Spinoza "Deus sive natura" and the "Sapere aude" from Kant and is Critique of pure reason! That's what metal taught me to open my eyes and my mind!
Really like this band and it's Opeth influences.... " As Embers Dance In Our Eyes" is a good one.
wow listening NeO and talking about life, and meaning of everything, Jordan Peterson.... wow you guys are so great!
A point about the song that I don’t know if you brought up or not: the song’s name is a double meaning. The word intravenous does mean “within the veins”, but the way the song’s name is spelled could mean within beauty/love. Venus is the goddess of love and beauty in Greek mythology, so spelling the song name like her name gives it an interesting spin
Could you guys please watch/discuss “The Satanist” by Behemoth? The actual song, not the album. Thanks guys, hope all is well.
Please give opeth another shot👅 try bleak or the moor
Ghost of perdition or Demon of the Fall
Rodiootje99 Good suggestions.
I feel like I'm the only person on earth that likes new opeth more than Old opeth, it's impossible for me to not listen to The Wilde Flowers or Era for more than one week
Elchinodiabolero I think ALL Opeth is mint. They're excellent as a progressive death band and their old school prog output is great as well.
They just reviewed Bleak.
if you like Ne Obliviscaris, check out Persefone.
They made a song with one of the members of NeO called: In Lak'Ech.
But Living Waves is amazing too.
Again, you really should try a band called Allegaeon who recently toured with this band. But I'm glad you're playing these guys, they are amazing.
Allegaeon are very good!
Urn is seriously my fav NeO album. It's so good.
Lovely reaction and channel said from an old metal guy from Denmark.
I know womens week are over. But react to this old gothic doom death band, amazing lyrics written in old english, a true beauty of all time and combination of the beauty and a beast.
Theater Of Tragedy- When he falleth lyrics
This song is currently the most played repeat on my rotation. SO GOOD. The drummer is out of this world. Everyone mark my words when I say he is going to be making it into the drummers hall of fame. Gotta say though the video is almost too similar to Gateways by Dimmu. Also, I find it hilarious your review is longer than the actual album this track is on.
Katatonia - Dissolving Bonds
I support the one who recommended Eyrie and Forget not.
I'm glad you did this one.
I would also recommend to check out Ghost of perdition by Opeth, you already listened to the band, but this one is one of their iconic songs, i think you'll see more in that songs than in Harlequin forest
Nice reaction once again guys! You should look into another australian band; Be'lakor, those uys are great, you should start with "By moon and star" or "The dream and the waking".
The guitarists' (there are two) names are Matt Klavins and Benjamin Baret. I think they are both bald.
Dandy Prime benji is a sick lefty player too!
Cypecore - Dissastisfactory. Enjoy your weekend Vin and Sori!
Eyrie, eyrie is their best song :”
