AVATAR. One of the most musically talented bands out there today. You should really dive into their discography. Very impressive stuff in there

You never know what to expect from Avatar, they are totaly unpredictable. Just love them...

"His scream is weak" *Listens to Reload and Hail the Apocalypse* lol okay bud

Avatar - The Eagle Has Landed Avatar - Hail The Apocalypse Avatar - Paint Me Red

You're insane. This band and song RULES!

I think the boredom part is an intentional part of the song, if you really watch the video and the character...he is stuck repeating himself and the horrible things he sees keep happening over and over...during the war

I agree with most of what you said, it definitely isn't for everyone. I think it's cause this was sort of a transition period for them, going away from their original melodic death metal roots, but before they really found their current distinctive style. It also probably has to do with the story behind the song. If you (or anyone is interested) me and my sister tried to find the meaning behind the music and the video. We think that the main character of the video works under some oppressive regime, and his duty seems to be review and approve or reject some kind of forms/requests. There is a house circled by a high barbed-wire fence in the dream, so it is possible that he is sending these people to some sort of prison or forced-labour camp. The dreams seem to portray feelings of guilt as well as the chance that he sent off members of his own family - the house with the fence, bloodied teddy bear, guard dog leaving his side.

Seems you like good and complex metal music. So, not sure whether you take requests, but the following three artists compose everything and perform for their own bands, all of them extremely good, complex and varied. Jari Mäenpää - Vocalist and previous guitarist of Wintersun - Check their Studio Live videos for Time I album (Jari themselves like how they turned out) Devin Townsend - He has a varied repertoir but, musically I'd suggest to start with his latest album, specifically the song Genesis (has an official video). Juular and Mighty Masturbator or Sumeria would be my personal favourite Heavy songs of his, while the internet prefers Kingdom and Deadhead. The Ziltoid Albums are also very amusing musicals. Igorrr - Which I can only explain with the meme: What Genre are you? Igorrr: Yes. He has won a Go Pro award for his composition Chicken Sonata. Tout Petit Moineau showcases the female singer's strength and what the band is about best, in my opinion. Grosse Barbe perfectly showcases the extreme vocal range of the male singer. And the newly released video, Very Noise, showcases the mind of Gautier Serre, aka Igorrr.

Totally missed that you did an Avatar Reaction, awesome! I must say that while they may bot be the most talented musicians out there they are certainly some of the most ambitious! They seem to always be trying to step out of their comfort zone and try something knew, both musically and otherwise. By that I mean making very creative music videos, full blown movies, funny web pages, amazing live shows and other stuff. For some bands this could be seen as a way to sell themselves, but looking at Avatar it really feels like an outlet for their overflow of creativity. They are also amazing mood setters. I realised that when reading the fable(!) that they created for my favourite album by them called Feathers and Flesh. The music really puts you wgere the story is. A lot of people recommend The Eagle has landed from that album, but compared to many other songs on that album, I think it is kind of monotonous. I would recommend Raven wine or Black Waters!

Dug into these guys a year ago when Devin was opening for them and fell in love. I think you would appreciate their more complicated songs like 'Lullaby'. It's my favorite. 'Black Waltz' is a great one too ... and it is a waltz :)

Excellent insights as always.I saw them open for Babymetal in Boston. They were fantastic. A Statue For The King is also really good and a bit more varied. Thank you! Hope you feel better.

This song if i recall. Does involve a sense of repetition. Its about a guy in the kgb/secret police basically marking off enemies of the state and killing people. Falling into depression and dispare. Feeling less then human and feeling the weight of his actons.

you should rely check out Opeth, an amazing prog metal band from Sweden (Avatar is too). I would recommend Blackwater park or reverie/Harlequin forest :)

For the variety you are speaking to I would highly recommend Coheed and Cambria Fuel for the Feeding End or 2113 these songs are incredibly varied and beautifully composed.

Avatar not the most complex band out there it is relatively simple to follow musically but they do more creative music videos than anyone else and they're live performance is top notch I rank them as 1 of the best live bands around

Hello Brian! I just found your channel and am already obsessed! I hope you continue to experience exponential growth.

Great channel! I subscribe! Cheers from France!

I no I'm late to the party but did you even try to look at what this song is about and means or just judge the way they play. for me I dont want to subscribe even a tiny bit I mean dude.

I would like to suggest something by Diablo Swing Orchestra. Stratosphere Serenade has a very satisfying flow. They're pretty similar to this but I like them much more. It would be interesting to hear your opinion.

Would like you to see some Death; their last two albums, Symbolic and The Sound of Perseverance, are great examples of early progressive death metal. Anyway, thank you for your videos!)

Yes, there's three parts that's repeated twice, the break part and a last chorus, riff and ending with the beginning melody... but does it NEED more? It isn't a long song.

Hey whats up Jon Snow, long time no see. Cool to see you go by Bryan now, interesting choice. I have a request for you, probably never get to it but whatever. VOLA - Stray the Skies. Could very well be my favorite band of all time and I'd say they are criminally underrated. Hope you get around to it someday, I think you'd really enjoy them.

Dude you HAVE to do Protest the hero!

Definitely check out their tracks 'Ready For The Ride' and 'Black Waltz' as they provide a similar range to this track but move along at a greater pace and feel more full. As for a different recommendation, I definitely recommend 'Moonshine Limbo' by the band Trepalium. They're a french band that have recently started blending metal with sinister sounding new orleans swing.

okay so since you are have a good knowledge of music and how music works I HIGHLY reccomend reacting to Jacob Collier songs like "hideaway" or "with the love in my heart" if you havent heard them already. his music is so musical complex and full of depth and layering I think you would find any of his songs really to be a very interesting listen. thanks! :)

I recommend "Earthborn Evolution" by Beyond Creation. Beautiful song.

I want to suggest, : Parting Soliloquy by Black Tongue kzfaq.info/get/bejne/bdd2hZaVp62qop8.html : Pisces by Jinjer kzfaq.info/get/bejne/aadpZ5ecr7jaook.html : Born Treacherous by Dimmu Borgir kzfaq.info/get/bejne/mrifmqeq1b-1dac.html or : Crocodilians and Other Creepy Crawling SHH... by Goatess kzfaq.info/get/bejne/f7J-gdOSsczOio0.html Thank you for you videos and I hope to see one of these songs in the future. Fair warning, the first song is a very heavy song. The list scales down top to bottom.

React to freakshow from them

Just subscribed and I would LOVE if you reacted to Waking Misery by Lost in Separation. Please!!! I want to see your thoughts, it's sick!

I would definitely recommend opeth. Pretty much everything is fine, but i think that blackwater park (the song) is what you would like the most

Sheesh i'd hate to be a critic, it must be hell over analysing music to the empth degree and not feeling it, it seemed interesting to me but i'm pretty boring 💤

Try hail the Apocalypse for more scream from him

I'm a huge avatar fan myself, but I honestly don't see why people are such huge fans of this song. It's not bad in my opinion, but they have way better songs. If you're looking for more variation, something more dynamic, with more flow, I'd say listen to Regret + House of Eternal Hunt. Love your insights into the song.

Next time react to "regret" and "house of eternal hunt"

DILLINGER. ESCAPE. PLAN. if you wanna enjoy the song more there's a myriad of choices. In no particular order: Nothing's funny Setting fire to sleeping giants Black bubblegum Milk lizard Nothing to forget Unretrofied One of us is the killer Farewell mona lisa* If you just want to get your head smashed in: Hero of the Soviet union Hollywood squares (mike patton) I wouldn't if you didn't 82588 Low feels Blvd Limerant death *it's a mixed bag between the two styles and is the one most people like to suggest. Most have harsh lyrics. Have fun!

Fallujah - The Void Alone

Diversity avatar is nice with it 100

Dude listen to Some pain will last by Kreator

You should react to anything by The Black Dahlia Murder. Some of there better songs are Nightbringers, deathmask divine, moonlight equilibrium, widowmaker.

Listen to some Meshuggah

Surprised that you don’t pick up anything from the lyrics in your analysis? They are telling a “story”. Which you clearly see in the video…

I know you just did a Gojira video but I feel like you'd enjoy Born In Winter way more than The art of dying. Born In Winter, Gojira (kzfaq.info/get/bejne/qdt3YMaQzpjKcoU.html)

It’s COVID-19 bro

Dude you should look Igorrr up
