A lot of people, young and old, think the old music is better than the new music...but I'm not so sure. I am retired in Mexico and will explore songs from the 21st century.
This is my favourite video by you. I hope in the future you do videos where you react to a music journalist, and then also listen to a song. You could listen to a KEXP interview & song for example. Hope you're well
Thank you hivedrops. I'm safe with KEXP and have done a number of reactions there. Other channels I need to be cautious because of the RU-vid terms and conditions. But I'll keep this comment in mind for sure.
This song truly gets sadder and sadder for every listen. I find that it captures the "Manosphere" in a perfect way, being solely dictated by status. Though, he's of course being a jerk, I can still sympathise a little with the character, as he seems to be so lonely, not even paying this girl for s*x, but simply for making him feel of higher status. Maybe holy is referring to being a virgin. Great video!
I can’t be the only one who initially thought, “What is he doing??! He’s got it at 2x speed!”, until realizing it’s intended to avoid copyrighting haha. Anyways, great reaction & review! Cool to hear you diggin’ this sort of music. Geordie Greep and black midi aren’t for everyone.
Love your content! Geordie is one of the newer young folks that I think has a loooong career ahead of him. His use of rhetoric, and what he talks about with society in general, is leagues beyond what most younger folks are talking about. Love this stuff. His sarcasm and whacky vocals is his signature.
Damn - chameleon. Walker Brothers > Soused - mad man, ploughed his own furrow, continually. Soused is sublime to me (big fan of Sunno)))) ;) Got to be in the mood for it, but when I am, noting else will do. Hope you've got some Pulp in your list too - my benchmark for a respectabl artist is 3x good albums on the trot and they measure up. Same for the Jacques Brel song, it's hilarious and cute cute in a stupid-as way + Scott 1 - 4 are all excellent and much more in his career. He can hold his head high.
Could you pop the name/album/etc. in the description? I've seen Nick Cave on the Abattoir/Lyre tour - with the gospel ladies on stage too - you've seen the dvd, it's a stunner. Personally, I'd go Waits/Cave/Walker as my unholy triumvirate of artists, the next 100 depend largely on mood 🤣🤣🤣 I have a feeling Cave's played a few dates in Latin America on the past few tours (worth it) + he used to live in Brazil in his wilder years. Worth checking out the stuff w/Warren Ellis + some stunning soundtracks. His book ...And the Ass Saw the Angel is a visceral read, highly recommend. I'm a huge fanboy and the new album was pretty much instant playlist for me.
I borrowed the format from another channel that retains the element of surprise. Cool that you got to see Cave. If you haven't seen #101, it relates to your comment.
This means a lot to me. This series isn't getting a ton of views, but if a couple people like yourself are digging it (as my generation used to say), then I'm encouraged. Thanks Kirbus.
I have two of his CDs: Basement on a Hill and New Moon. I think we had XO and Figure 8 as well during my marriage. I believe we split the collection. Great suggestion though.
I saw them live once, it would've been their Afterburner tour...first time I heard their music was through a friend who had a Best of ZZ Top CD which had all bluesier songs, some of which you mentioned...I remember reading that Billy Gibbons was one of Jimi Hendrix's favorite guitarists
Wire is still active? wow.... I love Pink Flag, Chairs Missing, 154.. But also, A Bell is a Cup, IBTABA are good. I haven' heard anything else after that though.
I'm really into all manners or Alt Rock, Noise Rock, Hardcore Punk etc as far as the noisy and abrasive goes. But somehow Songs Ohia's/Jason Molina's work is on the top, it speaks to me on such a deep level. I don't usually care that much about lyrics but anything Molina the lyrics are already front and center.
If you haven't watched my Magnolia Electric Co. reactions, that's where I really got on board with Molina....probably because it was not my first time.
@@wallbangerreactions They have a couple there the one I was talking about was the oldest one it should be the lore 2006 I believe back before their bass player passed unfortunately
Some of the background singing (someone described it as an Orca) is by Eartheater, and her and Arca and Björk and Twigs (and e.g. Rosalia) all work in similar circles/are friends/eachothers producers, it makes so much sense for them to sound so similar
great video as always, this is music video of the year for me. i’m curious to know your thoughts on magdalena bay!! i hope youll consider their newer songs such as Death & Romance, Tunnel Vision & Angel On A Satellite. Any pick off their latest, Imaginal Disk, is a great choice though!
Dischordant, too many effects, can't hear the vocals. Awful. Great bass line. Check out Space Engineer, To Be Loved, Lost in time, Coming Down....if you feel like it...
One of the greatest LIVE releases of all time surely this whole concert. Mind blowing from start to finish. The song is about suicide of course. The whole theme of the album is so dark.
@@wallbangerreactions I have the full DVD of the 2018 show and it is in its entirety phenominal. Hard to pick a favourite: Ancestral, Song of I, Vermillion Core, The Raven, soooo many. I dont believe I have seen anyone do a Review on Song of I so perhaps that could be your next one? Talk about drama!!! Keep up the great work with more SW and Porcupine Tree!
@wallbangerreactions I hope you had a chance to check out the rest of this amazing album. Just Be Simple is an amazing track and illustrates Molina's tendency to keep songs, warts and all, in the original take
Thanks so much for the great reaction! I'm really glad you ended up enjoying it, and I think that was an excellent three-song run that you chose for the video. I also didn't realize until now that you do some acting, very cool!
Your reaction and comments were perfect. I love this song and this cover, Aurora is one in a million, her movements and her voice speaks in a universal language. Greetings from Brasil! Thank you!
So far as the band goes, I really enjoyed this - frantic and dissonance really works for me, but the vocals were just painfully average, the dude's better (for me) with the more shouted style than the "scary" Smeagol type delivery, but even then it's nothing special vocally - and that's a shame, because song-wise, this is awesome. You might dig Zeal and Ardor - they're very pop-y/easily accessible for black metal, but I think you'd dig their intent and concept.
@@wallbangerreactions I don't want to belabour the point, but they've done something pretty smart with the Aversarial/Satan concept, that once you hear/see it makes perfect sense and is the perfect antidote to some of the far-right goons in the black metal genre.
I like your approach to this. Here are two Albums that also might do sth for you or your channel. The Body - I've seen all I need to see and Gnaw their tongues - All the dread magnificence of perversity. Have a good one sir.
I love the mix of dissonance and melody especially on this album. It has moments that are intensely frightening and ominous, and on other moments it seems so beautiful. Its like being inside a huge destructive storm, and one moment you focus on its destruction and the dread it accompanies, and the other moment you appreciate how majestic and beautiful the storm is despite its destructive nature.
These guys are what really pushed Black Metal into another realm. Id say they revolutionalized the genre. There really is no band like DsO. Theyre very tough to get into for newcomers, but once the initial shock goes away, you see just how amazing they are. DsO forever.
As a guitar player I hear an open G major guitar tuning. As soon as I heard this song recently I learned the chords in standard guitar tuning and just played along over and over with the song. I absolutely love this Pearl Jam song!❤
As open-minded as I like to think I am, I often dismiss what could be a gem. I was just recently re-listening to the Del Shannon late 60s album "The Further Adventures of Charles Westover" which is a terrific album. I'm with you on this one-main knock being his voice. Great upload.
