Theatre Kid Reacts to Arch Enemy: The Eagle Flies Alone. First Time Reaction! | Alissa White-Gluz 

Alissa White-Gluz is the third vocalist for Arch Enemy. First was Johan Liiva, second was the great trailblazer Angela Gossow. The transition from Angela to Alissa was unusual. Angela decided to retire from performing but remain the band's business manager. Alissa is a longtime friend of Angela, and passing the torch was done very graciously. Some fans prefer Alissa or Angela, but I think most appreciate both of them. You should check out some of the Angela recordings as well. Nemesis might be the most well-known.

She sings Swan Lake acapella. She is a tremendously talented vocalist.

Alissa is intense. Great vocalist, especially live.

Michael Amott and Daniel Erlandsson (guitarist and drummer) are the heart of this band. They make most of the music. Alissa and Jeff came later but they've been in the band for almost a decade now.(holy shit) I hope to see some songwriting from Jeff on the next album. His live sound is so tight. He's a beast. Alissa is a class act. She is a big fan of Arch Enemy. It was one of the first concerts she ever went to as a teenager. Her mom framed the ticket stub. Alissa used to work as an elementary school art teacher. It explains the costumes, that she makes herself.

Yeahh Arch Enemy 🤘🏼🇪🇨🤘🏼

On the guitar side of things: the blond guy is metal legend Jeff Loomis. Incredible talent that doesn't do much of anything in this song.

Alissa seldom sings with her clear voice at Arch Enemy: ARCH ENEMY - Reason To Believe (OFFICIAL VIDEO) She is the third singer on Arch Enemy. Before that she was with The Angonist. She stands out for her commitment to human rights, animal welfare and environmental protection. Interviews with her don't have to be limited to music. The band became famous with their predecessor Angela. Angela is now in the management of several bands, including Arch Enemy.

Lead guitarist Michael Amott signature on Dean guitar he's a guitar genius.. him and Alissa write all the songs, he writes the music, she writes and helps Michael on alot of the lyrics.

Since Arch Enemy is my favourite band I'd recommend War Eternal, The World is Yours or their latest song Deciver Deciver. Three really great songs. Another great songs is Liar Liar with Kamelot and Beginning of the End with Kane Roberts where she sings both with growl and clean vocals. The only song with Arch Enemy and clean vocals is the "ballad" Reason to belive. There you have some songs to check out Alissa and I almost forgot Thank you Pain with The Agonist the band before she joined Arch Enemy. Have a good Day.

Wanna see what she is capable of now? See Arch Enemys ”Deceiver, Deceiver”. Seat belt on! Stay Metal! 🤘😎🤘

They just dropped a new single, Deceiver Deceiver and it is excellent \m/

Ok, you have to do Nemesis live in Tokyo with the previous singer who is now their manager. Angela looks like she had been up for a week and beat up a bunch of dudes in the dressing before before the show it’s epic

so happy Arch Enemy was my first ever live concert seeing them at the Baltimore sound stage was a treat and ill always remember the day it happened.

Alissa White-Gluz is another in the (more) recent generation of female vocalists who can crank out first class false chord and fry style harsh vocal techniques. As others have pointed out (1) she took over from the trailblazer Angela Gossow, (2) she can (but rarely with Arch Enemy) produce beautiful clean vocals, if you want to see this check out her earlier work with Agonist, (3) Alissa is a (gorgeous, tiny - what is it with pint-sized harsh female vocalists?) a passionate animal-rights advocate, and (4) metal has a great deal of thoughtful, often uplifting lyrics - sure their are bands and songs all about dark themes but a great deal (of the best) metal is much more thought provoking and deep. But as you've noticed, you gots to listen.

Alissa is such a beast, in a positive sense!

gotta check out the live 2008 nemesis with angela gossow in japan. you wont be sorry!!! love the videos, keep em coming!

Very interested to see your reaction to Children of Bodom. I would recommend something like "Are You Dead Yet?" "In Your Face" "Downfall" or "Kissing the Shadows".

Really happy to see Arch Enemy and Alissa to finally make it into your brain, I would personally like to see you do some of their live stuff, and of course the new video released a few weeks ago. ❤

Panphobia by the agonist. Alissa was in there before she joined Arch Enemy. That song is so powerfull!

I saw Alissa live as a guest performer the other week and I knew she could do this and I’ve listened to her for years but live the sound that comes out of her is so unbelievable but it’s AMAZING!

1) That facial reaction at the beginning was epic. 2) She was taking it easy. Check out The World is Yours or Nemesis Live at Wacken. 3) She has a wonderful singing voice that can be heard as a guest vocalist in Liar Liar by Kamelot. 4) I want that bass guitar so bad.

This song is uplifting. As far I understand it is abourt freedom, and abourt to have the right and freedom to be who you are, and ofcause abourt you are Willing to fight for your freedom and fight for the right to be who you are.

Shadow Of Intent The Heretic Prevails U Should Do A Reaction Video Of Them Charis Please I Wanna See Your Reaction? Ya Alissa White-Gluz is Pretty Sick With Her Vocals

For more Arch Enemy reactions, go with "Nemesis," "My Apocolypse," "Yesterday is Dead and Gone," "War Eternal," and "You Will Know My Name." For other badass women singers, try Butcher Babies, Huntress, and Jinjer. Oh yeah, tis the season to react to Sabaton's "Christmas Truce."

Yay! Charis reacting to Arch Enemy! Welcome to the world of Melodic Death Metal (so named because it uses harsh vocals but frequently has a "clean" melody carried by the guitars). Alissa White-Gluz is our Queen Beast. They do have a new(-ish) single out : check out Deceiver, Deceiver. In the video, Alissa's outfit shows a lot of midriff, and she is totally ripped. Some AE fans prefer their previous vocalist, Angela Gossow. She's currently the band's manager (IIUC), but she was a complete monster as the vocalist, and it's worth checking out some of their older stuff too. Their growling styles are rather different : Alissa uses vocal fry, whereas Angela used false-chord growls. But they're both amazing.

this song resonate with me in the sense that i have always been "different" and gone my own way and decided to do things sort of oppocite to what ive been brought up to. To answer u when u asked if they were playing for real. obv not they have no electric power there, but as an old drummer myself looking at Daniel, he is playing exactly as he does live on this song, as far as i can see the guitarrists and base are doing same, im not as good as following guitar and base.

Interesting. I've listened to Arch Enemy before but this is more melodic than most stuff. I usually prefer bands like Jinjer with more variation, but this is the first time I really connected with them. Thank you!

your intro, you're so happy and energy loaded, one can assume you won the lottery :D I like it ^^

Nemesis Live at Waken 2016 and live in japan also War Eternal live, dead eyes see no future live and so many more!!!!!!!!!!

Thank you Ms Charis for doing Arch! Enjoyed it a lot. I love Arch Enemy because they don't fall "in line" with 99% of the rest with vocals switching between cleans and heavy. It's very difficult for me to enjoy jinjer/spiritbox/etc. The cleans always throw me off. I know this is an impopular view, but I've over about 20 years transitioned to heavy vocals completely as they're the most passionate ones out there. (to me) Cat strangling used to make me feel something but not anymore. 😆🤘 I really like your Lorna Shore reactions. Good stuff!

FloorJansen,SimonsSimone,AlissaWhiteGluzz,CristinaScabbia,ElizeRyd,🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🤘 #25YEARSPUREFUCKINGMETAL

Shes a badass you rock love your energy and opinions on music she growls but you can understand her

Alissa white gluz and Melissa Bonny can do both clean and harsh vocals. Both awesome singers

Handshake With Hell will melt everything from the neck up. Period.

Watched this the day it came out but I wasn't on my normal computer. Always fun, Charis. :) Won't be the first or last person to say this, but Alissa was co-lead singer (with Elize Ryd) of Nightwish for one night when Anette was ill (and got fired). Floor took over at the next show. The Denver Debacle, as it's called. She has a beautiful clean singing voice as well.

Can I perhaps invite you back down the Japanese music rabbit hole with the outrageously fun, talented and exciting Hanabie with I love Sweets! You will get the hugest joy out of these ladies.

I love discovering new channels so I can do a deep dive into what you've been exposed to so far. I like what I'm seeing. Arch Enemy has been around for a long time, and they broke a lot of barriers along with bands like Nightwish and many more who sadly aren't as acclaimed.

So glad that you've reacted to my favourite Arch Enemy song. I was looking forward to your reaction when Alissa began to sing and you didn't disappoint! 🤟🤟 I recommend "We Will Rise", "The World Is Yours", "You Will Know My Name" and "I will Live Again". Alissa sings in "Reason To Believe"

Panophobia by The Agonist ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-EdT7M4f2L9A.html is a great example of Alissa's clean and growl vocals

These guys are two of the people who inspired me to learn how to play guitar

Check out We Will Rise live with Angela Gossow on vocals before Alyssa came aboard...

Man I loved Alissa ever since I heard her on her previous band, The Agonist, she had a lot of songs which showcase her amazing range and ability, you should also check them out if you haven’t, songs like “Thank You, Pain”, “Martyr Art”, and if you want her classical voice, check out her “Swan Lake, Op. 20”.

Thanks to you i get busted almost daily at work singing the pumped up and ready to go! thing 😆🤘🖤

Welcome to my all-time favorite bands since 2001 discovered the original band with the original singer Angela Gossow you should listen to dead eyes I see no future one of my all-time favorite song or even the other song that's famous nemesis anthem song to another one of my favorites live in Tokyo the original singer! Your face reaction was hilarious by the way when she came in singing

If you want to simp for Alissa, check out Leaves in the Stream by Voltaire, her clean vocals in that are lovely

You’re so much fun! You’d like “living Dead Beat” by children of bodom. Their frontman died a little while ago, unfortunately, but they rip sound waves to shreds.

As others have noted, Alissa isn’t the original vocalist for Arch Enemy, it would be cool to see you listen to some of her predecessor Angela as well. Also Alissa’s old band The Agonist has some seriously great tracks as well, and she used her amazing vocal range more in that band ( clean vocals along with harsh vocals).Either the song “Thank You Pain” or “Business Suits and Combat Boots” would be representative of her style with The Agonist, and would make a great topic for another reaction video!

Another great performance by Alissa is a guest on Powerwulf's Demon's are a Girls Best Friend. Outstanding song. Very theatrical and the costumes are killer.

🦅🦅🦅

Alissa White-Gluz was originally in a Canadian band, The Agonist. You have to react to the song Panophobia by The Agonist! 😁

❤️❤️❤️❤️🤘🤘🤘🤘

You should check out their latest, "Deceiver Deceiver" or if you want some more commercial shit , " The World Is Yours". Yes, I sad shit as an ironical, 'cause they are my guilty pleasure. Strong and uplifting songs.

PLEASE check out Arch Enemy deceiver, deceiver!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Love your reactions, ghost hugz! Can't see em but hope ya feel em

Dang dose diddies!! Oh the riff is so close to Dismember "Dreaming in Red"!!!

You can also compare her with her representative and one song is then Nemmesis and then live and recommends 2008 and 2016 when both are good. Do not think her representative did much after she changed roles in the band but she also works with another group that she did a song with last year (are two male and one female singer in the band but in this song it is the girls who show their power) AMARANTHE - 'Do Or Die' Feat. Angela Gossow (OFFICIAL MUSIC VIDEO) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-iZweNFWbegI.html and the singer in that band was with another band with Alissa before called Kamelot and it was a band from the USA with two Swedish singers and Alissa. Both of them are friends with Floor J and if you check out Arch Enemy's latest song and check in the comments field, the top is Floor and she has also done interviews with others that you should take a closer look at their music. React to many more of their songs and more people will be happy as many never discover this queen

Even though Alissa growls with this band she has a very good clean voice as well and is also one of the accompanying singers with USA prog metal band Kamelot as well. Check out 'Sacrimony' and 'Liar, Liar' if you want to hear her use growl and clean vocals in both.

Yes, Charis, one thing you will find with Metal Music is that it's not just about the negative stereotype it got back in the 80s. It did so back then, because it was such a new genre that TPTB (The Greatest Generation and Baby Boomers) were shocked by all these new sounds they were hearing from their children's Boom Boxes that they didn't know how to deal with it. My mother (born in 1942), who was a Music Minor in College, ironically, just hated it when I was jamming to Metallica and other bands back in the 80s. She couldn't understand it as she came from that Big Band and Bebop Era of music. She'd always ask me what I liked about [Heavy Metal], the beat? She said. And I'd be like, "Yeah, mom, I like the beat." 🙄😅 But no, you see here's what people should know about Heavy Metal and that's this...Heavy Metal is just the Blending of Classical Music and The Blues played with electric instruments. The instrumentation is the Classical Music. And the Lyrics are The Blues. But just sung in a more aggressive manner. So just take a look at this song here, "The Eagle Flies Alone" by Arch Enemy. Arch Enemy is considered Melodic Death Metal. Melodic in a sense that there's just enough melody within the riffs, lead solos, and even vocal delivery that aren't just a full on blast of noise. There's lots of bands that do that, and honestly I don't care for them at all. But as you could see here that the melodic parts were quite beautiful, right? The solo section was very operatic in a way too, right? Technical Death Metal is very cool too, in that there are a lot of time and riff changes throughout the songs. The pioneer Death Metal band DEATH (formed 1984) was a highly technical band and you could put aside the vocals and just listen to music and be totally amazed by it. But yeah, most Metal music does carry some very deep psychological or political message within the songs. And before I wrap this up, let me make a comment about "the beat." When compared to Pop Music, especially Euro Pop, Metal is so much more varied in the beat of the songs. You will often get tempo and rhythm changes throughout the songs and that keeps them interesting...in my opinion. With Pop music, the songs will more often than not, have the same beat throughout and the songs get really boring, really quickly. Just listen to these modern Mix Tape type songs and you'll see what I mean. I got into Metal music 35 years ago. For basically all the reasons I mentioned above. Well, and the album cover artwork was much cooler as well... But anyway, hope you continue your journey into the Metal world, and find numerous bands that you really like. Don't know if you've heard of LILIAC before, but they're a young band of 5 siblings that play Rock and Metal in that old school vibe from the early 80s. They cover songs from the 60s thru the 90s, and also write some killer originals. Their first Rock cover was "Wild Thing" from 2015. The band was very young then. But their latest is an original called "Dear Father." Watch those two videos to see where they were and how far they have come, and then watch the 20+ videos in between. It's a rabbit just hole you'll never crawl out of.

Hey, you should definitely check out their new video Deceiver, Deceiver official music video just released, awesome thanks 😎Arch Enemy awesome 😎request thanks. Also The world is yours official video and Nemesis live at wacken, awesome thanks 😎

Slaughter To Prevail - DEMOLISHER and BABA YAGA u should check next :)

Yeah, she's growling canadian. Grognant canadien.

*Welcome to our world* You might want to do a reaction video to "We Will Rise" by Arch Enemy. It has there previous vocalist Angela Gossow and her vocals are just as powerful.

React to their newest song deciever deciever

A few musicians you need to react to is Otep, cradle of filth, do not ever check infant annihilator unless you want daymares and nightmares cause you may come across them.. project aegis is amazing.. you would super appreciate that band.

Please react to Arch Enemy - Nemesis (LIVE AT WACKEN 2016) 👌💯

They have very few clean vocals but old The Agonist has more of her clean and the new Archenemy Handshake with Hell.

OK, I did show up.

You should listen to Kiss me as we die- By Doyle. It has her as background vocals

😮🤘😍

She designs and makes most of her outfits FYI

Arch Enemy - The World Is Yours. I have a feeling you'll really dig that song :)

You should check out Arch Enemy - Nemesis live from Wacken. Her live performances are something else

👍🤘👌

Check out handshake with hell by arch enemy she has clean vocals in it

If you wanna do Alissa clean vocals and growls go listen the Kamelot liar liar official video. Kamelot is great in it’s own but this song is a ripper. Also Sacrimony live in 013 Tilburg with Alisa and Elise Ryd from Amaranthe is something I think you would appreciate :)

I think shes ready for the diversity of her new song "Handshake with Hell"

Ya, Alyssa would be best pal ever to give an order over the pub counter...

You need to react the the best drummer in the world #1 Joey from Slipknot

wow i wish i could get some of your energy girl, i´m not a huge fan of Arch Enemy, BUT yes i believe The singer only sing this way

Megadeth - She wolf (Live rude awakening) we waiting 😉

I call Arch Enemy the beer and barbecue version of Nightwish. Nightwish is the champagne and caviar version of Arch Enemy.

Alissa CAN sing clean vocals and she has an AMAZING, BEAUTIFUL clean singing voice! She prefers to sing in extreme vocals because this is what drew her into music in the first place. Alissa was in another band (The Agonist) before Arch Enemy and she did have songs that had some clean vocals in them. Thank You Pain is my personal favorite that she sang for the moment, though I have not heard EVERYTHING they have done yet. The Agonist is still around as a band without Alissa but honestly it's just not the same with a different vocalist. Alissa was also writing and producing their music so the band is ACTUALLY COMPLETELY different without her.

Gangster daddy arch enemy is awesome

You looked really focused take a look at handshake with hell really Nice clean vocals 🤟

Hmm it would be super cool to see you react on ''Dead eyes see no future'' from Arch Enemy. I must say I do prefer Angela Gossow to Alissa any time anywhere.. you'll see why :D

You're ready for Deceiver, Deceiver by Arch Enemy

Squeezables :)

Deceiver Deceiver from Arch Enemy next please!

Your energy makes me smile and your face when Alissa is growling is a picture. Anyway, to hear Alissa with a clean voice this is quite good to watch and its also Nightwish from the evening that Annette was taken ill and the concert could have been cancelled. Luckily it wasnt. The Video is the Denver Debacle. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-zH33rNy33iU.html After you could also watch how FLoor came to the band which was only a few days later NIGHTWISH -"PLEASE LEARN THE SETLIST IN 48 HOURS" ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-vhExkmWKMEU.html Both well worth a watch. Take Care.

you used yeah nah like an aussie ahahaha i knew it wasnt just us

You should the Wacken versions of Nemesis or War Eternal.

Alissa designs and makes her own outfits and she is a vegan. 😁

Metal is good for people, if u read the lyrics and get the message of the songs. :P

Alissa with, The Agonist doing PANOPHOBIA Is definitely worth a look see…

I´m from Brazil, and i don't know why I'm here....

I hope you had proper speakers for this. No headphone lets me worry :D Metal does need something better than laptop speakers

U look kinda crazy. And i love it. 😁

Try Jinjer- Pisces. You'll like her (:

Please react the recent music video "Handshake with hell " or "Deceiver Deceiver" 😁😁

Great reaction .... check out their new video "deceiver, deceiver"

Alissa used to be in band called The Agonist and she can actually sing really beatifully aswell. But it's not A.E style, so....
