Unleash the archers - Tonight we ride!!! She hits notes that she didn't show in this song
❤️❤️❤️
@@Tarasimonstudios Tonight We Ride is the song that introduced me to UTA. I'd also strongly recommend "Dreamcrusher". There's a live video from Dr. Light that's just fantastic. Really shows off the whole band's range and versatility, and that they can do it live.
@@Tarasimonstudios yes, TONIGHT WE RIDE, please !!! Her vocals are totally insane in it !!!
Yup, watch it. It's so good
UNLEASH THE ARCHERS - Test Your Metal (Official Video)
What I really like is that you immediately recognize and respect the unbelievable skill and stamina of Scott Buchanan, the drummer. I’ve seen Unleash the Archers live twice, and the dude can keep on tempo, on beat, barely sweating for a two hour concert. Also, Brittany Slayes can and does hit the high notes and vibratos love as well. They are an incredible group, and I’m so proud that they are Canadian because they are world class
Also, Scott’s double kick is different that about 98% of drummers, who will either use and alternating step double kick (left right left right) or use a single bass drum with a double action pedal (push all the way down for one hit, release fully for the second). Scott does something that is known by a variety of names, but I love the one name I read a few years back called a “flicked gallop.” He flicks the first hit then pedals the second on one foot, then flicks the first and pedals the second on the right foot as his left foot lifts off the pedal to start the flick again. Stupidly hard to do.
As much as I love Brittney, I do really like to see Scott getting some recognition too. The man is a fantastic drummer.
J U His drumming is amazing, but nobody gives props to the real power of the band, which is his mustache. It wouldn’t be the same without that majestic lip curtain.
@@Iamthecrazyone lip curtain😂
@@Iamthecrazyone don't insult the 'stache.....it's the one that Brittney rides.....
@@roy19491 No insult at all. Like I said, it’s where the band draws its power from as a whole.
I am so glad you reacted to this because the skill and range Brittney and other metal vocal artists have goes under appreciated.
If you want to critique unleash the archers when she is working higher in her range, react to tonight we ride!
I saw that video recently. The notes in that song are insane!
Also needs to check out Cleanse The Bloodlines for more of her extended range, hitting those longer notes.
I'd suggest General of the Dark Army.
UTA are under rated in the extreme, they deserve more airplay than they get for sure.
That was the song that introduced me Unleash the Archers. Great song!
I think metal singers are overlooked a lot of the time. Especially for this genre of metal. They're often classically trained and are very technically sound because they have to be to produce that kind of singing consistently (and do it live in concert). Their set up as a band is pretty simple, but they're all super talented. Love it.
I love how Tara was head-banging off the beat of the music at 7:16 xD
one of us. one of us...
Her timing though. 🤘
It's impossible to not headbang to that part. Even the musicians that were sitting still through most of the video started headbanging there.
@@MaxArch yes! :D not the biggest fan of her in general tbh, but definitely gotta give her props for the headbanging. A bit awkward (normal for a beginner in anything), but the timing was totally on point! She even totaly nailed the finish as well. Didn't expect it at all. Most of the other reaction channels have the hardest time to properly headbang, so this was definitely a pleasant surprise :)
She actually was on beat! Her head just goes up on the snare hit instead of down
These guys are incredible. Great people and my favorite band!
Their new song Abyss is so beautiful. Her vocals are otherworldly.
Thank you for revisiting the metal genre!
Yess, more metal reactions :D Devin Townsend next please!
Definitely kingdom at EMG
@@L1FEL1KE02 oh you know it!!!!
Deadhead for sure
Saw him a few months back with Avatar!
@@L1FEL1KE02 OR! Deadhead at Royal Albert Hall ^_^
Try unleash the archers tonight we ride she has incredible range
This! I love this song also, but Tonight We Ride is a better representation of Brittney's incredible vocal range.
th-cam.com/video/UOvZKJlrtk8/w-d-xo.html
Also, Cleanse the Bloodlines
th-cam.com/video/PfSL-6YExzk/w-d-xo.html
Yeesss! This song is aaaamazing!
Totally!!!! yess please.
Or Apex!
exactly!!
Unleash The Archers - Tonight We Ride....probably her strongest and most dynamic vocal performance.
You should check "Test Your Metal" and "Tonight We Ride", she is insane.
I love Test your Metal...great song.
Hey Tara! Tatiana from Jinjer just released a "One Take Vocal Performance" of their song Judgement (& Punishment) a couple days ago. Would be a great opportunity to get on that when its new and/or maybe do a Double Feature reaction video. You'd be in a unique spot where you could react to the official music video and also what Tatiana just put out. Since this channel focuses on vocalists breakdowns and analysis, her One Take Vocal Performance would be the best choice if you had to choose one. That video really gives you a rare face to face with her in the booth the entire time and really showcases what she does best along with a great platform for you to react to. I know you've done Pisces in the past, but the world needs more Jinjer reactions. Hope you revisit the band in the future. Love what you're doing, and wish you all the success in your continued TH-cam journey. You deserve every bit of it. =o)

There's also a great live show of this song too if you're interested.
Jinjer - Judgement (& Punishment) | Live in Melbourne 2020

Absolutely agreed!
Ooooh yes, it's insanely good. Tara, you already appreciated Tatianas talent and skills at the "Pisces" Video, but that One Take Vocal Performance of Judgement (& Punishment) shows it even to perfection !
Yes, please!
Regarding the drumming: the technique he's using for his double bass is rarely seen in metal, as most prefer to use single kicks on each foot to get the speed required. What he's doing has a lot of names, ie stutter kicking, double pedaling, clutch kicking, etc. The basic idea is that when your knee apexes, you kick down with the ball of your foot, then lift the ball while dropping the heel and letting the foot come down naturally. It is IN-CRE-DI-BLY technical, and shows the skill he has to keep it exactly on the eight notes every beat.
The only two other drummers I know of that use this style are Kai Hahto of Nightwish/Wintersun when he does his speed fills and very rarely, Nicko McBrain of Iron Maiden.
Epica - Sancta Terra (feat Floor Jansen) Live Retrospect show
Symphonic metal featuring Nightwish's singer Floor Jansen. I believe this was the 2nd to last song of a super long set. It's an amazing duet
4:57 "oh!" 😂👍 lol Tara in the head banger community now
Thanks for the commentary on vocals. Much appreciated. Surely a breath of fresh air.
I love when people comment on the drummers feet, it's so cool. Also when they comment on the bassist, his technique is very interesting
Calvin his technique is actually from a jazz bassist and Nikko adopted it... it’s crazy efficient for speed.
I'd be interested in hearing her reaction to a fast drummer...
I love unleash, don't get me wrong, but i giggled when she said great drummer. Just the dude from leprous sprang to mind cos I've been listening to ihsahn and, yeah, he's a solid drummer with damned good chops, nothing overly showy, but he just sits in that pocket and nails it from start to finish. But, let's face it, there are a million better metal drummers...
She's amazing!!! This isn't even the top of her range. If you react to "Tonight We Ride" you'll really see how clear and intense her high notes are.
I'm still so glad you reacted to them though!!!
"Awakening"
To look up into the night's sky, to see the stars they are changed
To know a thousand years or more have passed, and I am the same
This mountain hollow that keeps me in a suffocating embrace
A prison and a safe haven, it's always been this way
Lo, a new master calls me to awakening, I know this one brings the end
Far out beyond the darkness I've been living in it's true, a whole new world awaits
Stellar constellations rise, lighting my way in the night
Once again revitalized, to roam; to never die
My path begins with the new dawn; a voice is calling my name
It always starts as whispering then manifests to a scream
I'm drawn to the creature that wakes me, bound to them by the curse
My soul exists only to serve, a covenant of birth
Fear not the task ahead there's no escaping it, there's no good nor evil here
Stellar constellations rise, lighting my way in the night
Once again revitalized, to roam; to never die
Come to me, awakening
Follow my voice, come to me
Fear not the task ahead there's no escaping it, there's no good nor evil here
Stellar constellations rise, lighting my way in the night
Once again revitalized, to roam; to never die
Stellar constellations rise, lighting my way in the night
Once again revitalized, to roam; to never die
Gotta love our Canadian talent!
There isn't a bad song on this whole album!
I agree. This whole album is killer!
I adore the production value and the sound quality of this album. Whoever mixed it did a great job. It's one of the best albums I've discovered in a long time.
You should react to Florence Welch singing Spectrum live in New Orleans, her belt and vibrato are everything, she is just amazing ❤
She is soo WILD!!!(: God i Love it😊👏👏👏# PHILLIPINES FAN ON u MAAM TARA👍
I've probably listened to that specific music vedio 100s or time, they still give me goose bumps. That whole band is fantastic.
Your reaction is great. Great thanks from this video. I love Unleash The Archers. Great musicians and great singer. One of the best metal bands nowadays. Keep up the great work :-).
I enjoyed the fact that you touched on the overlooked talent with metal singers! I love to wig my friends out by playing them so many things they aren't familiar with, and really putting on display what metal vocalists are capable of! ;) Great reaction... Always enjoy the channel!!
So glad you reacted to this! I love this song, they're incredible 🤘
Nice to see your rocker side, didn't expect that. Great reaction and critic.
your headbang at the end of the song made my day haha. Thanks for your videos. This is a very all around talented band I have not seen enough of them I think. As a drummer I kept having to put my hands on my knees to stop concentrating on the awesome drumming to appreciate the whole experience.
Their cover of Northwest passage is a wonderful cover and you still see their talent
Hello from Edmonton, Canada 🇨🇦, Tara!! 😊. I loved your reaction to one of my all time favourite Canadian metal bands! 😊. UTA is from Victoria, BC and I had the pleasure of seeing them live 5 times already and I can’t wait for their next album and tour! I also had the great pleasure of meeting their lead singer, Brittney Slayes(Hayes)and she’s one of the nicest people I’ve ever met! 😊. Please react to more UTA, thank you so much! 😊. Take care, Tara and have a great week! 😊
For Something a little different from them check out “Northwest Passage”
I've seen them on another reaction channel. They're awesome! Great voice!
One of my absolute favorites!
As a drummer this makes me so fkn hyped!
If you wanna do more from her, in the song "Tonight we ride" she really goes for those notes. ;-)
May I suggest "Floor Jansen & Henk Poort - Phantom Of The Opera (Beste Zangers 2019)"? thanks :)
And her version of Shallow on that same show while we're at it? :)
Both of her versions of Shallow!
Come on, -Tarja´s and Marco´s version off the Nightwish - End Of An Era dvd 2008 is still a better version,- and I´m a Floor kinda guy, but Tarja is more in command and more powerful when doing Leider style / Bel Canto than Floor and compared to Marco Henk just lacks any kind of masculine power and prescense and just comes off as what he actually is,- an old man.
Tarja´s and Marco´s version is in another galaxy in comparison.
@@ulfdanielsen6009 I didn't say it was better, I just suggested she react to that particular version as I'd like to know what she thinks about it.
@@umbriel84 Fair enough,- I´m just thinking why not go for the cherry on top of the cake right away,- and if Tara doesn´t know this version she could have no better introduction to what Tarja and Marco could actually do together vocally,- I simply find the version with Floor and Henk tame and uninteresting in comparison.
Such an awesome react video. I appreciate that you can appreciate different genres of music even if it isn't your everyday cup of tea.
The vocal and instrumental talent is phenomenal
Thanks so much for doing this song/band! It was a great video!
YEEEEEEES TARA YEEEEEEES! Haven't even watched the video yet, but I am HERE for this.
havent heard this in like a month, so good ty
🤘🏽🤩 Rock on girl! Thanks for reviewing one of my all time favorites!!
The drummer had the most incredible mustache during that video. His foot technique is solid. Everything about the way they play is very clean.
"Tonight We Ride" and "Test Your Metal" are also worthy of reaction :)
My suggestion, The Hu, Wolf Totem. I'm surprised no one has suggested this already
Yup that's n awesome one
Never listened to them before but holy mother they're all amazing. Their BASSIST DUDE holy MOLY
I just found out about this group through this song! TH-cam recommended me your video too! awesome
I recently discovered this band and I love them. Amazing craftmanship.
The growler for Unleash the Archers impresses me to no end because of how restrained he can be. He never goes forte in this song, not even at his last burst near the end. A metal growler who can remain piano or even pianissimo while still delivering that solid harmonic growl is at the top of their vocal game.
Beast in Black - Blind and Frozen
COOL (Still waiting for "Nightwish - The greatest show on earth" live at tampere.
Need to make a call out to the Nightwish army :)
@@Zandman26 I actualy do HEEEEELPPPP
I think a Simone Simons react would be nice, one of the following
1) Epica - Cry for the moon
2) Epica - Unleashed
3) Epica - Essence of Silence
4) Kamelot ft Simone Simons - The Haunting
5) Epica - Sensorium
I did like that she addressed the amount of music theory that went into this its often overlooked in the metal genre by people that are not familiar with it. Especially power metal
These are some SERIOUS musicians, every single one of them, not a single one is slipping and Brittany is a BEAST, I love her
You should do some Band Maid, they’re awesome, look up any of their live stuff
Yea! Glad you enjoyed them! You should try Epica, "design your universr" live at their 10th anniversary show called retrospec.
I love how open you are to metal! Thank you!
Fun fact: Brittney (the singer) and Scott (the drummer) founded the band back in 2007 and have been a couple for many years.
Overall a great band. Probably one of the best Power Metal bands out there today.
Devin Townsend- Kingdom live at EMGTV. Prepare to be blown away!
Loved your analysis. Well done!!
Unleash the archers are amazing. new album coming, every time i hear her sing it gives me chills, especially that first note \m/ \m/
The best part is this song is in the middle of her range. In some songs she approaches whistle register.
I would not have listened to this song on my own, but I did enjoy the quality of music making. I never realized how much skill goes into making this type of music.
Should discover nightwish and another band called epica
Yes! Oh I'm so happy!
Freaking LOVE Unleash the Archers!!! I love that she uses such great, healthy technique, and someone else does the screaming for her. Plus who doesn’t love a badass girl singer???
I love that other people can appreciate all types of music.
That was so epic first time I've ever seen a band that made Tara head bang. 🤘😛
YES!!! I love them! Brittney is awesome singer, the band is badass
thanx for this react! :D
Heavy Metal is a complex musical genre, you find a lot of musical elements inside it, isn´t just roaring singers and yet you have to have the talent to sing growl vocals, I love the power and complexity of Heavy metal.
#Tarabytes
Thank You Very Much for your Appreciation of this Great Song!!! WOW!!! This was insane!!! Much Love Tara as always!!! 👍👍👍👌👌👌🥇🏆💜💜💜💛💛💛
Gotta love Canada we have power singers unleash the archers makes us fellow Canadians proud
Love her reaction when the lead singers come in on a song !
I like seeing a proper analysis (and appreciation for) of rock and metal technique!
this song is SICK! great reaction too, loved it
Unleash the Archers "Tonight We Ride" will blow your mind!
Great reaction. The drummer is also my standout for the video, too.
I love your reactions. I love your analysis and the way you break everything down for us! I would like to see what you think about a fellow named Pellek here on TH-cam singing Highlander. I am curious to see if his singing is healthy and how you feel about it. Every time I hear him do a cover he gives me goosebumps. Honestly I also believe for how great he sounds that he should be more well known. Thank you again and keep being amazing! ❤️
Tara thank you for doing this.
love this video, specially your comentari about rock/metal music, there it's definitely a lot of talent in musicians and singer in that world! Also, love the headbangin \m/. Another great metal band its "Epica", I would recomend you the song/video "Cry For The Moon"
Kudos for being the first reactor I've seen pick up on the standout drum performance here. Always confuses me when people are so drum-apathetic that they don't react to the awesome fill he uses throughout this song.
I've never been into this kind of music, but WOAH... That girl's voice is stunning and the music is gorgeous.
Fantastic reaction! I've seen a lot of folks rock out to this one, but I really appreciate how much you dug into the technique behind it. I highly recommend you react to "Test Your Metal" by these guys in the future!
The drummer is using heel/toe technique. It is like the equivalent of alternate picking on guitar. Played with a drummer that do 16ths at over 300 bpm on double bass. Amazing!!! These guys are killer. I've checked out some of there other tunes but this one is still my favorite from them.
My favorite Unleash the Archers song is The Matriarch.
Ehhhh so many other good ones on that album! Apex and Awakening tied for 1 but clense the bloodlines and shadow guide is up therr
if you like this drummer you are absolutely going to love tool and meshuggah.
Thank you Tara. We love our metal, its nice to see it critiqued clinically!
You’re an honorary metalhead for sure with your first reaction being SICK! 😝🤘🏼
Lol! Thank u!
Good to see YOU unleash and headbang! 😘🤘🔥
Tnx for headbang and the devil horns, appreciate it! :)
The fact that you headbanged and threw up some horns at the end, you earned a sub from me haha.
🤘🤘 Your open mindedness is appreciated.
That beginning reminded me so much of Halloween!!
Tara, you *rock!!* 🤟😻🤟
Brittany Slayes is one of the best rock vocalists on earth male or female. OP the album this song is off of is barn burning vocal mastery from start to finish. I cannot recommend it enough.
I agree.
The drummer is a beast and does a whole lot out of a modest kit. Also his double bass technique is fantastic. Usually you see drummers do single taps... very seldom you see double taps.
They are one of the best bands out there Brittany has a voice I'd describe as a female Bruce Dickinson from Iron Maiden her vocal pipes are insane tonight we ride by unleash the archers is amazing
This was really cool. Musicians in band very impressive
Tara, get it girl! Peace & Love🤗❤😎🥀
