The Contortionist - Language I & II (Reaction) 

You are in for treat. Such a unique sound. Their latest album is stellar as well. If I had to recommend a single song it would be "monochrome (pensive)". Absolute masterpiece.

You should listen to the whole album. It's one of the best prog metal albums ever!

Probably my favourite album of all time. I haven’t felt so much joy from listening to music in a long time. Such a fantastic band. Thank you for reacting to this and congrats for 3,000

Thrive is my real darkhorse jammer of the album. I didn't know who they were until i was about to see them with tesseract, but after a 4 month deep dive in preparation they won me over. Since that tour they've only settled more and more into being less deathcore and more of that accessible smooth prog we love with each album. There's a video of them doing language rediscovered, i highly highly suggest you enjoy that one when you got some free time. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-qcfleQ7S7c4.html

Hopped on the TC train in early 2013 and will never get off of it.

I first heard of these guys last year. Really changed my perspective as a musician seeing the technical unique sound a band can create. Glad you enjoyed them!

Ironically when I first listened to this while studying for my high school finals I didn’t enjoy it but once I sat down to listen to the whole album during a road trip I wanted to beat the shit out of my past self

Fun fact about the bass on this album, Robby Baca, one of the guitarists, did most of the bass.

Congratulations on hitting 3,000! Another band I have never heard of but I loved it. Will definitely be checking them out.

First! I haven’t listened to these guys before but I think I’m going to check out some more.

The Contortionist ‘ Flourish’

Check out tesseract altered state. Another ambient Prog metal album very technical. Start from the beginning if you do

Congrats on 3k! Well-deserved! I'm really glad you enjoyed this. I just heard them for the first time not too long ago and had a feeling you would dig it. I'll be excited to check out more with you, as this album is the only one I've heard so far. Great album though! 🤘🏻

The Contortionist is so good it's criminal! I really hope you see this and consider checking out Novelists. "A Travers le Miroir", "Lead the Light", "Monochrome" and "Heal the Wound" are some of the best songs you can hope to hear in the genre. Cheers and here's hoping to seeing you check them out!

I saw this band open for Devin Townsend. They were really damn good

Congrats on the 3000 subscribers. Glad you're checking out The Contortionist. They are amazing. Their earlier stuff was more on the deathcore side but they have went alot softer in the past couple albums. Intrinsic is probably my favorite but they have still not released a bad album in my opinion. Dreaming Schematics, Geocentric Confusion, and Holomovement are few from that album.

Great band. Congrats on 3k.

Love your channel!

Great reaction! Subscribed!

Congrats on the 3k🤟🏿

Congratulations for 3.000.

Congrats on the 3k! Finally you're getting to The Contortionist. Flourish and Return to Earth would be my recommendations for more. Thanks for the content!

You should check out their song “return to Earth”, on of their best in my opinion.

you should check out '' Haken - Darkest Light ''

Hey! I hope you are well! Got great news yesterday! There will be another release by The Ocean with Jonas Renkse as guest! It will be on their forthcoming album in September but will be the first single and released next week, first of July on all channels! Would love to see a reaction from you! Best regards! Nils

Man you definitly need to check "River of Nihil Where owls know my name"

Can you do some solo stuff from John Petrucci's album Suspended Animation? JP just announced a new album after 15 years! Can't wait! Most likely in the Fall 2020. Also James LaBrie solo work, thanks hope you are well

Feel our tastes are really similar, love your reactions to bands I also really enjoy. You've probably already had people recommending well known heavy-hitters Karnivool, Tesseract, Leprous and Periphery - but there are a few smaller slept-on bands that are at the same level as our boys Haken and Caligula's Horse - first, another ozzy band Circles: their last album was full of great songs, no filler - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-zwnGQx8fyCE.html - and also check out Ihlo, a new up and coming English prog-metal/rock band: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-wKY8wFTy1zk.html. Oh, and Sleep Token if you want your mind blown. ;) Keep on loving music sir.

Please, the glass prison- Dream Theater😭

Make that 3,001

I love the acoustic version much better than this one
