![ABCs of Metal - [U] - UNLEASH THE ARCHERS - "General of the Dark Army" REACTION](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/FeCu5kiISvE/mqdefault.jpg)
I'm jealous that you now get the chance to listen to Ne Obliviscaris's entire music catalogue for the 1st time. Literally every song they put out is a masterpiece.
So... I've been a metal head for about 10 years by now. And a hip hop dude just made me discover one of the best bands I've ever heard. Thank you man, I guess what I'm trying to say is that not only have you built a great community, but have proven stereotypes about certain music genres to be wrong. Respect mate.
It's nice to discover new good band. I found Ne Obliviscaris on students off topic forum in my university 8 years ago when they had only demo. And lately I discovered Agalloch through youtube reccomendations. Welcome to the NeO club, I think you'll enjoy every song!
@@Alstadiwh Well the band isn't "new" in the sense that they've been around for quite some time, but they only started to release some albums since 2012.
@@Willi.am05 :o 2012 that's what I knew. When did they start with the demo's?
one of my wishes is to recall what got me into ne ob , I own it alooot in my life
i found them through become the knight. The contrast of tim charles and xenoyrs vocal styles and of course the violin guitar pairing make them one of the most unique progressive bands, ive got them up there with opeth and dream theater
Why have I never heard of this band????? This is fucking awesome!!!
You have now! 3 albums consistently of this quality to deep dive into too. Kinda jealous. They're a head trip first time. Excellent composition. Nothing is too in your face, so you can just enjoy that all of them are exceptional musicians. It's a death metal band where the bassist is truly amazing, the harsh vocals are the nearest thing to a weak point and the guitar riffs prove dave mustaine wrong about nobody soloing anymore. Yes they do dave, they just use em as riffs now and the actual solos are really ridiculous... Great band. Nice vinyl pressings if you can find one too: clean and crisp sound, no hiss, all the detail. I wish I could say the same for the wintersun lps I have. Even the fresh from nuclear blast brand new in cellophane live at tuska is crackly...
@@matthewgodding777 I will definitely listen to the Album on which this song is
Australia has some extremely underrated bands. Be'lakor is another band from Australia that is phenomenal. 4 near perfect albums
@@darkdeceptionkillsthelight9653 The Second album (Citadel) is an absolute masterwork. With 2 epic length masterpieces in Painters of the Tempest and Devour Me, Colossus. But the first album has some other great songs besides Plague Flowers. I always loved Of Petrichor Weaves Black Noise, Forget Not (the bands name in english) and As Icicles Fall.
@@derpherpula592 i absolutely love be'lakor. Their music is so elegant. Neo, Be'lakor and Parkway Drive, long live Australia
Few bands have the talent, and the knowledge of how to use that talent, that NeO has. Probably the best "react" decision you've made yet 👌
This song is also used in lectures at the Sydney Conservatory I believe!
You should check out the track Painters of the Tempest, it’s a 23 minute track, and it’s made as 3 separate parts in one long song. It’s incredible!
Tim Charles, the violinist/clean singer, is classically trained! So much talent in this band!
RazzieVegas6661 yes the Sydney music conservatory.
The band actually was not aware of that. On their NA tour with wintersun my friend who lives in toronto went to the show and met the band after the gig and none of them were aware their songs are being studied at the conservatory and they were super stoked to find out
It seems like he could make his notes last forever, such an incredible breath control! I really liked this band, interesting mix; new fan here 🤘🏻
This is the first time I've heard this band, and holy shit its so good, glad he did this reaction if not it could've been years before I found them, I'll definitely be looking at more, the violin makes it feel like a Symphonic/Folk/Viking Metal and the vocals remind me of Insomnium. I forget who else has that similar kind of growl but I want to say it was either Turisas or Ensiferum I forget but I think one of them is like that. Anyway love this song.
blazejecar well that’s weird considering they were the ones that gave the conservatory permission to use the song. They definitely knew about it
What a ride huh? The violinist is also the clean vocalist. Drummer is Dan Pressland and has a channel with playthroughs on here. This song is studied at the Sydney Coservatorium of Music.
edit Opeth for O
@TheKumitechamp The screamer doesn't play any instrument.
@TheKumitechamp the "screamer" writes all the lyrics and does the album art.
And this song is now mandatory stuff to learn at the conservatorium.
@TheKumitechamp Xenoyr (grunter) is only doing the grunts. Then you have Benji and Matt playing Guitar, Martino on Bass, Tim on violin and clean vocals, and Dan on drums ;) Epic lads.
Douwe Hummeling Cyngus plays bass on this song.
They are the best metal band in the world right now. More people need to know about them.
Check out beyond creation
@@Fwr942I agree, they're may fav
For stuff that is much more recent I would have to agree. As for bands that are still releasing tho, I've got to say that nightwish has some inspired stuff in their backlogs even tho its a completely different feel to this. But nightwish is at least being recognised a lot more these days but Ne obliviscaris deserve so much more recognition
Between the buried and me still exist
@@drewfrazier6768 fr, it's a tough one between BTBAM and NeO, both super technical
And this is how I make it through my 12 hour overnight shift
[W] for Woods Of Ypres- I Was Buried In Mount Pleasant Cemetery. Gotta do it.
Justin Dufresne I’m so late to the party but I’ve been wanting him to do this for months.
NEXT:
[O] - Opeth - Ghost Of Perdirion
Opeth - Ghost of Perdition (live at the Roundhouse)
This needs to happen
RED ROCKS AMPHITHEATRE??
I would also add Demon of the Fall live at the Roundhouse
I got to see this band live supporting Wintersun and I have to say it was almost certainly the greatest concert that has ever/will ever happen. They can pull off this incredibly layered and complex music live, perfectly, it is quite the experience!
There's some well renowned music school in Sydney I believe, and they've added this song to the curriculum to study.
TheKarret yeah, they study it for music compostition, I found out about this song and band yesterday and in this song when the violin is being played over the metal makes me cry it’s so beautiful! People that say “Death Metal and Metal in general is a no talent, non musical thing” can kiss my ass.
@@americanmetalhead7318 haha yep. There's a lot of great shit in metal people just don't know about. Ah well, moar for us.
People that are truly in to music get it, even when it isn't a genre they usually listen to. The problem is for the majority of people, music is just background noise. Few people critically listen anymore, and those that do, are usually making music.
[O]: Opeth, either Blackwater Park or Ghost of Perdition
Blackwater Park cos everyone does Ghost of Perdition
Bleak because it's the best song off of Blackwater Park
Serenity Painted Death
Finally!!!!!!!!! I’ve requested this song since you have 30’000 subscribers 🤟🏻
Saaaaame! Been requesting that for so long! Now all I need to see is Devin Townsend, he could react to any DT song, as long as it's a live version it'll blow his mind and make him do a weekly Devin Twonsend react xD
Me and you both brother yes finally,I'm on my way to work ugh lol,something to look forward to after😁🤘🤘
Metal lounge music. It's the theme music for a Final Fantasy boss fight.
Well i requested it since he had a mere couple of thousands 💔
This band really is something special. Opeth was one of their inspirations and I feel they surpassed them lol.
Absolute facts
[O] : Opeth - Ghost of Perdition!
ah yes... some goood Opeth should come :D
Lotus Eater?
Bleak, bleak... no body reacts to bleak
@@WeirdSchizo Lotus eater would be amazing too
The Moor
O is for Opeth - Deliverance
Oh my God, he really did it... I'm so pumped...
Edit: great reaction, as always, but sad for you, Alex, nothing will ever sound the same after this.
Been requesting that for so long as well! Now all I need to see is Devin Townsend, he could react to any DT song, as long as it's a live version it'll blow his mind and make him do a weekly Devin Twonsend react xD
Devin Townsend is my hero!@@FlipperWolf
Stormbending for the amazing video and message
kingdom live emgtv for the amazing voice and emotions
deadhead for chils
A song of the album ghost for meditation
And my favorite deconstruction the song for a crazy ride :D
I mean it's good, but not THAT good that it'll ruin other bands for you lol
@@megarockfreak the emgtv stuff Dev did was fantastic, a brilliant showcase of his musicianship and personality.
@megarockfreak Even better:
Any live version of the Funeral/Bastard/The Death Of Music trilogy, like the one at the Royal Albert Hall or at Plovdiv!
THIS was finally a very wise and good choice. Ne obliviscaris are very special artists, with a great sense of the beauty provided by our wonderful world. I guess, those are the best words to choose to describe them
O is for Opeth - Blackwater Park!!!
2nd best opeth song!!
Master's Apprentice
This song makes Opeth want to hide in the closet. As much as I love them, face the facts.
@@Compendyum lmao what
Opeth - April Ethereal
Please do Opeth Ghost Of Perdition live at the Roundhouse for O. You will love it.
O has to be Opeth.
And btw they were an influence for NeO
@@TheAskald exactly why O should be Opeth lol
@@yoaashay because Opeth
@@tunein9001 ... Yes that's what I meant.
While I think there are far better songs, the Roundhouse tapes performance is baller.
Plague was the first Ne Obiviscaris song I ran across. Violin and clean vocals are Tim, harsh vocals Xenoyr. Another great band to see live!
Yaaaaaaay!!!!! Awesome! My favourite band from my home. You should also check out Forget Not - this is the song before Kaleidoscope on the same album. Greetings from Melbourne, Australia!!
Hey, Alex, I've just seen the video and I want to share a great experience you made me remember :) It was last summer. I had just finished my Degree and I had to travel to the University to take my diploma, since I lived in another city. I took this album, which I heard for the very first time in my first or second year of the University, like a company for the travel and I listened to it in the car. There was a dangerous moment, where I didn't know where I was: the road was going, and going, and going, no more cars where on the highway, only mine, the music like an atmosphere, it started to rain, the mountains came in front of me and I felt like unexisting, only living while the music was happening. It was absolutely what feeling music means to me. I arrived to the university just when the album ended. I took some time inside the car, in silence, without thinking. My brain was a kaleidoscope. Thank you for making me remember that beautiful moment :)
Well, I have a new band to binge listen to. This was amazing.
They have 3 albums. They are all amazing.
I saw them live in Brisbane when they were touring their first album and have been a devout supporter ever since! I believe they just finished up a tour of Europe with Ihsahn
@@adamh6094 the first time u heard them was live??
Omfg!
I can't explain in words how bad i want to see them live. They are never around me. Ive heard it's some of the best and cleanest sounding live performances. And from what ive seen from their live videos. Its seems definite.
I am lucky enough to own all their albums on Cd and vinyl tho 😀😊.
@sybreeder gn yes! I’m an Aussie and as they are too, they do a lot of local tours. Saw them supporting between the buried and me 👌🏻. There’s not many big cities in this country so most bands will do at least Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane. But we’re devout to our music because of this situation. A lot of the gigs I go to you run into people who’ve travelled hundreds, sometimes thousands of kms to show their support. For example, I’m travelling 550km this March to see anthrax, slayer and behemoth haha.
@@adamh6094
thats fucking awesome. Musta been a crazy experience having that immaculate musicianship catch you off guard that night and blow You away right in front of your face.lmao
I'm from Michigan in the u.s. so I'm a ways away.lol
I might of seen the video of sydney you were at lol.
I will def travel a ways to see them if they come around Michigan. And if i have the money at the time ill go further.lol
This is America tho. It's not easy to have expendable money here to do alot. Lol
FUCKING FINALLY! been trying for over a year bruh. THANK YOU! When you said "this makes me wanna move my head like this" I lolled. I think I love you man.
Ne Oblivicaris is an amazing band, is one of my favorite bands ever. Super super technical.
How can anyone dislike this video? More NeO, please
Opeth - Ghost of Perdition (live)
Perfection!
Thank you Alex, now i've found a New favorite Band 😍 greetings from germany 🤘
this is, in my humble opinion the best song ever made
Tenacious d sung a tribute to it once.
newonaginnalf Wait, really?
@@18FrozenAngels *whoosh*
Alex please for o
Can you do Opeth-Ghost of perdition?
THIS! FOR THE LOVE OF FUCK THIS!!!
To bid you farewell instead. Nobody reacts to it..
I will be happy with any Opeth song.
Windowpane
The Moor
For O, keep it local. Oceans of Slumber- Solitude. Band is from Houston.
Oh yessss! This band is awesome! I keep forgetting about so many good ones! It will be hard to decide for O!
I saw these boys in concert, they are freaking amazing. They're just as amazing live.
O - Opeth!!! Ghost of perdition!
Opeth - Ghost of Perdition (Live At Roundhouse Tapes)
GeroelheimerProd I prefer the new one at Red Rocks, but regardless, this song is amazing and needs to be heard.
Glad you checked out this band. They are the kind of band you could just put on and relax too even though it’s heavy. I first heard of them through Vins channel. We were all blown away too. Check out more of their music in your free time.
To all of you who thought, like myself, this cannot be performed live by human beings...
Well there is a live video on their TH-cam Page so go and see for yourself if you want, you will not regret it, I promise
It's unbelievable (like all of their stuff tbh)
I saw them live with winter sun... they were fucking incredible!
Opeth Ghost of perdition or Reverie/Harlequin forest
Yea
Dude, Harlequin Forrest is freaking fantastic!!!!
Harlequin forest please
another vote for Opeth!! Ghost of Perdition, Roundhouse Tapes
Wow I'm blown away!!!!! Definitely different and beautiful!!!!
Quickly became top 3 of my favorite bands, finally you've heard they're beauty
O: Omnium Gatherum. I reckon you haven't reacted to them before? PS: Guys, Alex has already reacted to Opeth, give some space to other bands as well, geez.
Omnium Gatheum / Insomnium combo :)
i think he;d dig "the perfumed garden"
I think Gods go first, or blind to reason.
Obscura
O for Opeth
Holy crap. Just amazing. The musicality blew me away.
These guys are special. I don't think any other group of musicians can bring it all together quite like these guys do. If I'm not mistaken, I think they've only recently been able to become full-time musicians, after releasing 3 god-tier albums in the past 7 years. I'd love to know where they are 10 years from now.
They put on one hell of a show too! If they're ever in your area, it would be a crime to miss them.
YEEES! FINALLY I CAN HAVE SOME PEACE 🙏
Edit: Awesome reaction Alex, NeO really does just overwhelm you, but in the best way possible. Only metal band that's brought me close to tears lol
your hard work paid off🤘🏻
@@TheBooCrewofNJ Thanks Douglas, we did it 😩
Some peace? I hoped you'll start with Forget Not now :D
(P) Polaris - the Remedy
Petteri Vola Periphery > Polaris
Intensity max level progressive black metal class, that what makes black metal such beautiful music genre. Love it thanks man this makes my day
FUCK YES DUDE! So thrilled to finally see you get to Ne O. Been following these dudes for the better part of ten years now and they have never disappointed.
When you get around to "S", you totally need some Sabaton in your life.
Either "Ghost Division," "Night Witches," or "To Hell and Back"
O for Opeth. Opeth - Ghost of Perdition (Live at Roundhouse Tapes)
Ne Obliviscaris are top tier metal ! they are unique
Nice Plini picture bro ;)
This dude needs to cover plini! Paper moon ftw!
🤘Love Plini!
one of the best progressive bands from this decade
I second this. I just need him to react to the entire Citadel record.
Lol when the chuggy part came the auto captions said *applause*. Now THAT'S what I call success
Saw Ne Obliviscaris live late last year .... phenomenal band live !!
Next Opeth - Deliverance!
For some reason everything off this album gets blocked in the US
My home boys at Ne Oblivisacris never disappoint
And it’s Obliviscaris*
Hey Zeus one shouldn’t change their vocabulary just because they’re talking about a particular type of music. How about people speak the way they want and pretentious would-be snobs not insert themselves for the sake of attempting to make strangers on the internet think they’re smart? Cool.
@Hey Zeus lol I said it because he's a hip hop guy at heart so it makes more sense. Second many of them are actually from. My home town so I thought it was appropriate. Also thanks I didn't notice the mistake and I kind of feel ashamed by it. Fixed it up now😊
So hyped I'll see them here in Belgium this summer !
This song feels like a classical masterpiece to me, so many nuances and details, every time I listen to it I feel like I'm discovering something new!
My favorite band right now. Listen to the entire Urn album. Brilliant.
Burning moths, we've set free
@@optie5ILLUMINAAAAAATE THE WAAAAAAY
“O” Opeth - The Lepper Affinity
Next Opeth - ghost of perdition (live at red rocks)
ᛞᛖᚾᚾᛁᛋ ᛏᚱᛟᚹᚨᛏᛟ The Roundhouse is the better version because Mikael actually growls and screams
Painters in the Tempest is one several people have already mentioned and I agree with that one. But I also recommend Devour Me, Colossus and Of Petrichor Weaves Black Noise. Vin and Sori have done several NeO songs and went to see them in concert. Amazing band!
I've never heard of this band, but cant stop listening. Holy ***t this is amazing!
Wage War for "W" please!!
Tim Ramsden yes!
The river!!! I must see his reaction to the " cough, cough, bleghh"!!
I vote for Warbringer 😁😎
Tommy As much as I'd love to see that, I feel Gravity, Don't Let Me Fade Away, or Johnny Cash would be something he would be able to enjoy more.
Tommy when he does The River he has to do warped tour version.
So glad you reacted to them but you have to see the live video to get full appreciation of the musicianship!
AWESOME DUDE! You are now one of us. Once you hop on the NeO train there is no getting off; I've seen them 5 times already and the 6th gig is in May. I knew you'd have that reaction. Now try Be' Lakor, also Australian, best song to try first would be Abeyance or The smoke of many fires. Peace out!
R - Rotting Christ Athanati Este
Eeeeetsiiiii
Among two storms
Παμε ρε
Oh, Sleeper-"Hush Yael". It was written about a tragic true story and you'll absolutely love it man.
We're probably the only two, but this needs to happen. Oh, Sleeper is easily one of the best metalcore bands.
@@FamineWolf I agree, even though deep down I know it's going to be opeth
Well, I didn't know this band, and since you mentioned them , I decided to check them out and they are indeed a pretty damn good band! So thanks for giving me another band to listen to! I guess that now there are three of us suggesting this.
NE OBLIVISCARIS is like when you open the fridge and throw everything on the blender but somehow taste amazing.
Hi Alex, I hope after doing this reaction, you realize why people like me hound you to death about certain bands. It's because we know the bands, we know how amazing they are and we know based on what we've seen of you, that you'll love it. And we get a lot of joy from watching you enjoy the music we've recommended. Also, if you ever get a chance to see these guys live, don't miss it. They sound just as amazing in concert.
Finally you reacted to this masterpiece!!! You should also check some of their other songs, they are at least as mind blowing as this! Love your reaction in this, hilarious to see, because my reaction was exactly the same, the first time I heard them. And they play just as tight live btw!
Great reaction, I have also been asking Alex for so long to do this song and he finally did it. Where have you seen NeO? Saw them 2 times, once in Belgium (Graspop) and once in Holland (before Enslaved) Sounds soo close to the album versions.
@@tforal2 I saw them the first time when they were touring with their own album Citadel, and the 2nd time was when they were supporting Ihsahn on tour. Mind blowing concerts
Popularity contest says Opeth, who are great, but give a dark horse a chance bruh:
Obscura - Diluvium
Obituary - Chopped in Half
Overkill - I Hate
Onslaught - Welcome to Dying
Fuck yes i love obituary
That's quite a good selection of bands there, hopefully they will all get their turn eventually. I'd also ad Orphaned Land to the suggestions, their pretty interesting.
Yeah... Orphaned Land is solid for sure...
Cool, I’m glad you agree 👍.
I had to rewind 3 times (and watch at .25 speed twice) to pause it on the pineapple!
And yeah, that's about the reaction I had when I first heard NeO. Mouth hanging open, and every few seconds laughing in overwhelmed amazement. One of maybe three times I can say a piece of music blew my mind.
They make me so proud to be from the little town in the western suburbs of Melbourne where the original members are from.
OPETH!!
Owen Gonzales a fellow progger 😩👌🏽💯
I reacted along with you. Amazing!
I think myself as a metalhead, never heard of this group but now its on my playlist.
I honestly forget that Ne obliviscaris is so amazing when it comes to their music.
So close to having Leprous and NeO almost back to back. Reaaalllly wish you’d have done Leprous!!!
O : Orden Ogan - Fever
Now you just need to check out the live in Colorado 2016 video of this song so you can see them playing. Absolutely amazing.
we went on tour with this guys they are absolute professionals and a absolut blast live!!
Paradise Lost - Beneath Broken Earth
Oh yeah
I know these guys are good, but daaaaaaaaamn, Nevermore is way overdue.
Yaaas 🙂
I've binged on this band for months now.
Ne Obliviscaris is the best thing to ever come out of Australia! I instantly bought the album the first time I heard this song. It's such a masterpiece! Progressive metal is heavily addictive. And look at that album artwork!!!
Please do Opeth's Ghost Of Perdition for O! It'll blow your mind
Omnium Gatherum - Frontiers
This is one of my favorite bands. I hope the make a new album soon
Yes! I've been waiting so long for this one because they are one of my favorite bands!
Opeth Ghost Of Perdition NEXT PLS!!!
O for Opeth. React to Opeth - Ghost of Perdition (Live at Roundhouse Tapes)
So you messed up a little bit, you didn't watch the live version. Here's what you need to do, get your homie(forget his name) and show him the live video. Keep rockin bro!
duuuuude i really love your reactions so much! you're really feeeeeling it!
OVERKILL for O Alex!!!!! Thanx for Nothin, Horrorscope, Bitter Pill, Infectious, anything off of the Horrorscope record would be great! Don’t skip over them my friend! They really should be part of the Big 4!!
I second that! They are one of the oldest thrash metal bands and release a new f***ing record every 2 years. Wings of War arrives in less than a month!
Agree with Overkill, but would prefer anything off "The Years of Decay" instead...
Love this band to death!!!
I just love watching you jam to this, I just recenlty discovered this band myself. It really is so good.
Snag your shirts here! www.bonfire.com/have-a-dope-ass-day/
