Both songs added to my playlist. Please react to "Treehouse Burning - Floating Donuts" they are the best band from South Africa. I'm so proud of the boys 🤘
Thanks so much for doing this one man! I personally wanted to get you to listen to The Door To Nowhere or The Tree of Life, but I knew those songs would never have won in a poll. Most people only love singles for some reason 🤷🏻♂️ lol. Anyways thanks again my dude!
Just wanted to say thanks for the awesome review and for going above and beyond to do your homework on bands! Most people would have stopped after hearing one song and assumed that was our entire sound. We love your channel and we are honored to be in this video! If you are interested in more of the lore / storytelling behind the music there is a video on our channel that sort of explains this album. Thanks, and keep making awesome videos!
You guys truly make amazing music!!! Everyone to the guitarists, drummer and Singers is talented!!!! I hope to see you guys live someday in California or on a livestream! Always gonna be a fan of yours🤟
The Tree of Life is my favorite off the album. I think you’d enjoy that one a lot. It has a In Hearts Wake vibe to it and there’s a pan flute breakdown lol
Lol man during the whole first song I was like, “he picked possibly the worst song for a first impression.” This band is all about their clean singing, and firefall was like the one song on the album without cleans. They’re a great band with a ton of great choruses.
*People recommended the worst song for a first impression. Haha but yeah listening to the album now and there's flute breakdowns!? Come on people recommend me that stuff! Lol
I wouldn't say it's all about the cleans, but they do have a big part in their music, yes. They have that one "heavier" song on each of their 3 albums.
Ship For Hopeless you get what I mean though, listening to them for the first time and not hearing their singing makes you severely miss out on who they are as a band. I think we can all agree they are extremely underrated!
I play games with Tyler(singer), Paul(drummer), and Thomas(bassist) quite a bit, all of the guys are super down to earth, Joe has helped me with my screams a couple times.
"The Relics Of Nihlux" or "Blackroot Forest" would be the best songs to be a first impression. Songs with clean vocal are the perfect songs in this band.
Firefall works so well if you listen to it as part of the whole album. I know the feeling you’re getting, but when that song hits you at track 10 it FUCKING HITS
Wise Man's Fear is a band where one of the biggest selling points is their clean vocalist and their really catchy choruses. Sort of like ADTR but with way better instrumentation in my opinion, but similar style band.
Enjoyed this album a fair bit, favourites being The River and The Rook, and Breath of the Wild. Would like to mention that the rhythm guitarist (who does backing vocals in some Wise Man songs) and the drummer have their own group Whale Bones, which is a fair bit of a genre shift into a mix of indie, alt, post-hardcore and emo, but I think their tracks are awesome. They did a feature with Bilmuri on his latest EP Muri and Friends for the track "everything i wanted", which I would wholly recommend checking out as the dude has some phenomenal vocals! Not sure it quite fits the vibe of the kind of tracks you typically do on here though, so may just be worth listening to in your own time haha. Great vid as always!
Not a great first impression for me, agree re the breakdowns, didn't really come across as great songwriting. Judging by some of the comments though this is atypical for them so will check out some of their other music
Damn good idea, but relics of nihlux is easily the worst song on the album so I’m interested to see what you think. All the song’s on the album sound pretty different tho
Dude! You should check out the song “Cataclysm” off their second album “The Lost City”. Their name is the same name as the second book in “Kingkiller Chronicles” by Patrick Rothfuss (a home-state native of Wisconsin) 🤘😎🤘
Firefall being nothing but breakdowns makes complete sense in the grand scheme of the story of the album, but definitely not the best introduction to the band. "What Went Wrong" is probably my favorite song off of this newest album from them.
You should check out their songs Grey King, Codex, and Vitality. I think their first 2 albums are much better than their newer stuff but their overall discography is amazing.
I still say you should do a reaction to Instilled In Me. Sounds like it would be right up your alley. The vocalist definitely has an interesting vocal pattern to his verses. You won't be disappointed.
So glad you did the second song, not sure how you feel about it but I thought Firefall was like "the breakdown" of the album with the rest of it not being as heavy. I still enjoyed the album and the flute breakdown caught be so off guard, great addition to the variety of the album.
You should check out Breath of the Wild by them, it's one of my favorites off their new album. It's probably their most diverse/varied song off the album i think.
Like the double reaction idea Another day requesting you to listen to The Ocean 'Cambrian II: Eternal Recurrence' or 'Jerassic Cretaceous' (Jurassic was released yesterday)
So happy to see you bro! Please please please react to Scarlxrd. He has dropped so much music. I know you like his music and you'll love the new songs he has. Listen to ERGHHH/EXPECTATIONS. Keep it up. 🔥
One day sir you should check out more Oceans Ate Alaska, my recommendation would be Blood Brothers, that song slaps imo. Excellent work as always and I dig the double review format and the cheesy intros have been top notch so far👌🏻
