America is sleeping on how amazing this band is. I kid you not. They're very popular in the UK and continental Europe. The lead singer is simply superb. Their acoustic performances will knock your socks off.
On the more futureproof esque vibes, unperson, can you afford to be an individual, I was just a kid, I’m not made by design, and miracle baby all fit that sort of vibe. On the real love song vibes, trip switch is a solid one along with Amsterdam. To see their ridiculous range, check out particles (the piano version), impossible at abbey road, or if I get high love session. Conor’s range is insane partially because he’s a classically trained vocalist
Saw them live this year and they were out of this world! Such an incredible energy, and great stage presence ❤️ I also think these songs don't do them justice but, honestly, there isn't one bad song in any of their albums. I highly recommend 'Impossible' if you're looking for a slower, more ballad-like song, it showcases the lead singer's voice beautifully.
They are an amazing band! Would love to see you react to more of their music :) If I get high the live session is a great one to really hear Conors vocals.
Yes! I love these guys!! His voice is incredible and I’m happy to hear it holds up live. My favorite song of theirs is Sorry. There is the regular track on the album and also an acoustic one. Both are 🤌🏼🤌🏼
You've stumbled on a gold mine!!! One of my favourite bands and they're absolutely phenomenal live. They have such a variety of different sounds within their albums...PLEASE do a discography dive (including the EP: What Did You Think When You Made Me This Way as that has some of their best songs)! You won't regret it! 🧡
yay nothing but thieves! i would love to see you react to more, especially 'impossible' live from abbey road, the single called amsterdam, the solitude sessions from lockdown and the moral panic album
I’m so happy that you reacted to them! I literally could recommend every song off of the extended version of their newest album(while not every song is something that I go and listen to regularly, the talent and passion for music that they have just oozes off of every song, and I think that you specifically would like the album sonically too), and some of their previous stuff(but ESPECIALLY the acoustic versions of “If I get High”(which, if I’m not mistaken, is about one of the member’s mom(you’ll understand why that’s so heartbreaking if you hear it lol), and “Lover Please Stay”. Connor has the voice of an ANGEL and it really shows itself in the stripped versions). I would absolutely love to see your take on their other music 🥰 Their newest album is definitely what you should go for if you want more like Futureproof and Real Love Song, but I still HEAVILY recommend listening to that stripped versions of If I Get High and Lover Please Stay. His vocals are otherworldly Edit: I edited this a bit, because I realized that I mixed up a song or two of theirs, and I can’t remember the name of the other one I was trying to suggest 😅 Edit edit: I remembered one of them and edited it in lol
Love love NBT! Their discography is really varied. Their music is usually meaningful too and has great lyrics/stories. Look forward to more reactions to them from you.
Dawg im high af and just rocked out so hard with you to this. I have no one to talk to about nbt but yesss thank you for acknowledging how heavy this riff is bro. This could easily be a hardcore two step type song with that riff
Thanks for the review Steven! You'll get something from any track they perform: in studio or live. Tracks to add to your review list include: itch, Amsterdam, lover please stay, if I get high, Afterlife, I'm not made by design, Particles (piano edition). They've overtaken U2 as my favourite band!
so happy you check out NBT they're just so damn good! 🔥 You should definitely listen to their whole discography because they don't have any bad songs! 🤘 and yes Conor, the singer, have a mind-blowing vocal range if you want to hear more of it you should react to the song Impossible 🖤
I remember discovering Nothing But Thieves a year ago around this time and I made sure that Real Love Song was the 1st song I listened to in 2022. It's amazing to listen back to these songs from someone discovering them for the first time! They are such an underrated band and I regret not seeing them this year when I had the chance. I hope you dig into more of their discography!
I was there! They are unbelievably good live, Conor’s voice is so good. Check out I’m not made by design from the same concert, his vocals on that one are always insane. If you’re interested in the history of the band they recently brought out a documentary called Road to the O2 which is worth a watch.
One of my favorite bands. Gotta check out Particles (Piano version). Gives me chills every time. That and Sorry are my favorite of their newer stuff. The live version of If I Get High is amazing too, specifically to show off Conor's vocal ability.
I absolutely love Nothing But Thieves! And love seeing people react to them for the first time!💚 Please do more reactions to them, they never disappoint. Recommend watching- Impossible & Broken Machine (live at abbey road. Really shows off Conor’s vocals) Also think you’d love - Unperson (Official Music video) Everybody’s Going Crazy (Official Music video) Amsterdam (Official Music video) Particles (Official Music video) 💚🙌xx
Ooooh this brings back memories, this was such an amazing gig! Love your facial expressions when Conor does his thing 😁 They’ve just announced a UK tour and I’ll be first in the queue when the tickets go on sale next week! They have a new album coming out in July which is going to be epic!
the singer from this band just released an amazing solo project under the name ‘Manmade Sunshine’ if you wanna check him out. Heeeaaaavyyyyy Jeff Buckley influence imo.
I saw them support Muse a while back now. Had no idea who they were at the time but remember hearing the song “I’m not made by design” It was unbelievable. They definitely have some Muse about them too
Have been waiting for you to react to these guys! Absolutely love pretty much their whole catalogue but you have to react to ‘Impossible (Orchestral version- Live from Abbey Road)’ it’s a god damn masterpiece ❤
7:21 I don’t know if you caught it, but when we all sang it back to him he went “f*ck me!” I don’t think he expected it to be that loud 😄 They are always this good live, I’ve seen them a few times now and they are just stunning!
Nothing But Thieves and PVRIS are the evolution of many of the bands you mentioned. A lot of what came out in the 2010s were carbon copies of bands like Linkin Park, Deftones etc, but without soul and without progressing the genre forward. I can only hear your standard metal and rock riff progression so many times before it gets dull, and if you aren't as good as your predecessors then I have no reason to listen to you. Nothing But Thieves and PVRIS absolutely made this kind of music exciting for me again. I'm glad you mention the lack of "boxing yourself into a genre" because what Linking Park did throughout their career from Hybrid to One More Light was change things up with each subsequent release. Nothing But Thieves takes that approach but does it on each individual album.
Hello, I love your channel and I was wondering if you could react to 11 Minutes By Halsey and Yungblud? I have watched you react to both artists and on that song they collaborate beautifully! You don’t have to if you don’t want too of course and as always I really enjoyed the video!
