Johannes Eckerström explains the song: “Bloody Angel is about shame and guilt. You look around and watch all the suffering and while searching for someone or something to blame, you end up in front of the mirror.
woah thats deep
Avatar are one of my favorite bands, if you continue down the rabbit hole you will learn that no song is the same by them. Avatar are unique and have a fantastic way always trying something different.
Exactly! Metal will tackle any subject, even those most want to ignore or deny.
metal is a mirror. it's also a way to cope with the hard stuff. well done, Ken. you are really grasping why some of us love metal. thank you for your insight into the music and what it means.
Couldn't have said it better.
I love how theatrical Avatar is with their music and videos.
It's almost like the band is from another world and they're opening the curtain for us.
Amazing musicianship and compositions too.
I've listened to five of their albums at this point, and love all of them
They are really fun to see live! I'm a sucker for theatrical bands.
@@deed5811they are on tour right now, just saw them in San Diego tonight!
@@papaskazoo5860 I've seen them 3 times 😃
I've seen probably most of all Bloody Angel reactions out there, and yours stands out in that few others pick up so quickly (if at all) on the commentary on the, let's say blemishes, of and on human nature. Thoroughly great video!
My favourite Band
Seen them live this Month and it was fantastic. Waited two years to see them.
As a girl i get asked a lot why i like metal and you nailed it as you said that metal shows the dark side of life. But it unites the metalhaeds around the World that we know we're in this togheter and we face it toghether
Avatar are a truly unique & phenomenal band. Immense talent & creativity with all members. Johannes (singer) can do super low to super high, all in-between, growls, fry, etc). They've been around over 20 yrs & always keep things fresh. I do hope you'll check out more by them, esp anything live. A band my soulmate introduced me to is another I'd recommend.. Cattle Decapitation. (The name.. ikr?!). They are a bit heavier & harder, but address environmental & animal suffering issues.. our apathy & responsibility).❤️🤘
Yes! Cattle Decap is amazing. Scourge of the Offspring is on heavy rotation.
Ken, you’re so right about what it means being a human caught in a system! You might want to break out, but alone it’s just not possible, so you do what you have to do to survive.
On another note: Avatar are awesome, deeply rooted in the Gothenburg Sound, and still doing their thing. Love it.
The live version of this is amazing!
I hope you will continue exploring this amazing band! With 9 albums under their belt, and the strength to go Independent after 8 of those, they are a band us die hard fans are now responsible for bringing them to the masses!
I saw avatar live a couple of months ago can confirm they were amazing 🤘🏼
Gosh, I really love your channel. This was cool, I love Avatar. Avatar Country is a fun one.
I recently became obsessed with this band. Good pick!
Welcome down the Avatar rabbit hole, I recommend their songs, "The Eagle Has Landed" , "Torn Apart", "A Statue Of The King". "The Dirt I'm Buried in" and "Let It Burn" (Live). But, whichever way you go, you have just discovered one of the most versatile and amazing Metal bands there is.
Your comment on metal more less holding a mirror to societies potential darkness is a insight to your understanding of metal music. This coming from a long time metal fan. It’s appreciated.
Love it the darker the better kick ass band loved his make up that's what I call art good job you a metal head know love it your cool
Favorite moment 🤔. The whole video! But 11:26 sequence. The disgust and disappointment of Johannes' stare packs a punch. "You did this!"
Good choice!
I love Avatar. My favourite from the is A Secret Door. It has Corey Taylor in it too. Would be fun to see you try to learn growls and screams :D
saw this live on norway rock a few years back, he stood out from the rest of the artists, his voice was so clean!
just got to see them two nights ago for my birthday weekend, they are absolutely crazy. one of the best and most interactive bands i’ve seen and they genuinely care for the audience. they are incredible.
Avatar are an excellent band have done loads of videos
Thank you very much for an excellent reaction. Many reactors for some reason just don't quite get the meaning of this song. You hit the nail on the head with taking responsibility for personal guilt, what ever that may be to each individual. The video just being one example. Again you got the meaning of the video too. Yes Johannes' voice is incredible in terms of having so many singing styles - i've lost count, all of them done well. Not only that, he is capable of really high notes (Going Hunting) and very low (So Sang The Hollow). Yes, metal music can be deep and can touch on various morals. Avatar are not afraid to do this, and also are not afraid to have fun (A Statue Of The King) if you would like some light hearted fun. Their stage performances are just as good as their videos, they put a lot into them.
This and "Tower" are probably my favourite songs by them that I know. This song, because, well, you can already see, and "Tower" because it's so creepy and dark but also really thought provoking (it's about a toxic/abusive relationship from the abuser's point of view).
And yes, that is why we love metal. It doesn't shy away from the darkness, but rather embraces it and reflects it back so that it can be understood. For me personally, metal music has really helped me learn more about myself and grow as a person. The power of metal on the psyche is incredible
Avatar is extremely underrepresented
Great song - great reaction👍
Their scene on stage is extremely minimilastic, yet the stage never feels empty, they are all good at taking up space on scene, but the singer, Johannes is exceptional as a front man.
Also i have been asking for avatar a few times i believe, do not want to spam comments with it, but i love you did a video on them!
Avatar is incredible and so so underrated! I think they have the ability to make it big in America. The whole band is so immensely talented.
Appreciate the depth in your interpretation. They give quite the performace on stage. Quite the fascinating band.
Loving your wading into Metal! My favourite band is Gojira and I'd recommend Vacuity(contemplative, I think of it often in my fight against MS), Global Warming(fairly self evident) or Shooting Star(dealing with loss, was written while the mother of two members was fighting cancer and eventually lost her battle against it, always makes me think of my late Father when I hear it come on.)
Hi, great reaction! But if you really want to hear the singer's ability, you should check the live version!
Avatar's a really really fun band. This song is very dark and the music video is too, but they're a very flashy, theatrical band that's INCREDIBLE live!
If you do any other songs by them, I HIGHLY recommend checking out a live performance. "The King Welcomes You To Avatar Country" is nice and upbeat, and their performance at Alcatraz 2019 is the best one, IMO. Country mixed with metal, by a Swedish band, lol.
You should check out a live version of this song, it’s incredible!
This one is the favorite fan's choice. The band always have very cinematic videos!
This is a song about the NKVD (People's Commissariat for Internal Affairs; later known as KGB), how they sentenced millions to be executed or sent to Siberia to labour camps. "Bloody angel" is a NKVD officer who just approved one death of an "public enemy" after another. And the frontman of Avatar embodies the demon who haunts him in his mind.
And ss Johannes Eckerstrom said, ‘Bloody Angel’ is about shame and guilt. You look around and watch all the suffering and while you search for someone or something to blame, you end up in front of a mirror. Everything you touch, you break. Everyone you try to save you hurt and push further away.
Interesting fact: Johan Carlen was inspired by Dogville and Manderlаy by Lars von Trier when building the scenery for the clip. For the first time, the band shoots their play separately. Just on a black backdrop.
Check out Smells like a Freakshow, New Land, The Great Pretender (official video not on official page for some reason), Going Hunting, Night Never Ending, Vultures Fly, Tower, Construction of Souls. Black Waters, Scream Until you Wake, In Napalm, Child, Legend of the King, Wormhole.
Great that you explore different genres :)
This song doesn't get the love it should..imo its a perfect song
Avatar is my absolute favorite
This is best reaction I see this far. Thank you 😊
PLEASE ken, you can’t have a Metal Month without listening to Wintersun - Sons of Winter and Stars, watch their live recording video.
Hey Ken! Love that Avatar gets highlighted on YOUR channel! Thanks
the video is really intense
until the end with the dog's tongue flopping out
I'm not that into Avatar but I keep coming back to this specific song... I think it's brilliant in so many ways.
ps. you might want to check out Fleshgod Apocalypse - The day we'll be gone (acoustic)..... it's a beautiful song in so many ways.
i see Avatar i click like!
Oh, I've already commented. Well, here I go again! I would challenge you you find two songs of theirs that sound alike. Avatar is band of constant growth and critique themselves harshly on sounding too similar to what they've done before. In particular, their Live shows are fantastic.
For an idea of their full spectrum: Hail The Apocalypse, Going Hunting, The King Welcomes You to Avatar Country, Torn Apart, A Secret Door. Inspired by Beethoven, The Beatles, Black Sabbath, Thin Lizzy and Devin Townsend (to name a few)
More Avatar. Can I suggest Going Hunting.
I suggest Jonathan youngs metal covers of poor unfortunate souls (the little mermaid), his covers of the plagues and deliver us with Caleb hyles (prince of Egypt covers)
I feel like the dog symbolizes the hound of hell
Please check out the live one take performance of the band “monuments” and the song is called “cardinal red.” It’s one take live vocal performance and the songs is incredible.
Please react to Motionless in White! Great metalcore band. Maybe "Voices" or "Reincarnate" live🤘
I love metal...but not "cookie monster" vocals. My husband got me into Avatar..and I have enjoyed the ride. The Eagle Has Landed is my favorite Avatar song. Johannes is all character....awesome to see live! Granted I love the songs Johannes sings more...but what can you expect from a 2nd alto choir nerd. Rob Halford Is my metal singer love. Just found your page...do some Judas Priest..If you have I apologize. gotta look into the archives. Dickison Iron Maiden. Even Sebastian Bach is an amazing singer...
The cool thing with this song is that it does not follow the standard verse, chorus, verse chorus.. structure that most somgs follow...
Hey, i have seen alot of your reviews and i like your style. Music is good to my ears no matter what genre. Metal at heart but aslong it catches and moves me. Now i have a wish for a reaction and i dont Get why There is such a low reaction on Trevor Morris (composer) and Einar Selvik the lead. (Wardruna) Viking Suite is a must. Would love to hear your reaction on the piece🤘😊
It's kinda,sad that that you did not go with the live version. The video is ok, the live version is epic😊
My suggestion is a bit of a newer band that is really interesting and definetly Deserves more attention And that is Tallah and Especially their Song-Shaken (not stirred) Justin is an absolute beast of a vocalist and I would really like to see your reaction to him
Next reaction VOB "ENTER SANDMAN "Metalica cover VOB BAND TRIO HIJABERS from 🇮🇩 VOB consert LIVE AT FRANCE. TRANS MUSICALES DE RENNES 2021👍
I think its a weird that vocalist reaction channels have missed La Dispute. I guess everyone just forgot about them.
Check out skynd Richard Ramirez video
Next reaction VOB "GOD ALLOW ME PLEASE TO PLAY MUSIC"_ 'MV VOB BAND ROCK TRIO HIJABERS from 🇮🇩 VOB AMAZING super talented ♥️🤟
How have you not reacted to Dream Theater.
I thought this was a vocal analysis not a philosophy analysis....
I wonder if the dog represents the nazis since Hitler famously favoured German Shepherds
I think of it as a sign of loyalty that the Person lost as the dog is leaving the scene. As if like his dark side is displayed to the publik
This song has nothing to do with the "holocaust"
Mary month of metal you say? Soilwork is a must!:
When Sound Collides
Nerve
Stabbing the Drama
Spectrum of Eternity
Antidotes in Passing
The Windswept Mercy
There, you have choices lol.
And FYI Metalocalypse = BRUTAL
