Vocal Coach reacts to Poets of the Fall - Carnival of Rust 

Poets of the fall! Undeservedly obscure band! Been following them since Max Payne!!! :-D

"This guy has control" if only you knew. Lol

Poets of the Fall deserve so much greater name recognition. That song came out in what, 2006? I’ve listened to it hundreds of times. It never loses its flavor.

Poets of the Fall is a band I never expected to see on a reaction channel... I discovered them through my favorite fictional non-existent band ever... Old God's of Asgard. A fictional 70s era metal band, featured in a video game. PotF wrote and performed several songs as the band for the game. Their OGoA stuff is pretty dang good as well.

It is actually from a Finnish TV show... not Swedish ;) "That guy" is Marko Saaresto and they are one of the best band out there, if not THE best... and thank you for this video Beth, finally an angle on Marko's singing that goes further than "wows" and "omg"... constructive & interesting... and he spoke to your soul... cherry on the cake!

I see PotF, I click like. I sooo wish this band got recognition it deserves...

First time hearing him sing. What a beautiful voice! Looking up more now...

Whoever that was on your patreon requested this vocalist to react.. a warm thanks for her. 🍁

Its not only warmth , the guy has control, the pipes, the technique and most important the heart to sing.

Marko Saaresto is one of the most amazing vocalist that ever exists. I was very lucky to have a chance to make a song with Marko. A dream come true. And I'm very thankful to these guys.

The most underrated band ever...love from Assam,India

One of the songs I will listen to for the rest of my life without ever boring me...

Of course you love Marko's voice! :) I had no doubt, as It's really beautiful, warm and unique. Haunting, even. It's got that touchless touch. I hope you will listen to more songs from Poets of the Fall. Most of their compositions are really perfect, smart, with beautiful and sometimes unexpected chord progression and those lyrics... oh, don't get me started on those lyrics! Thank you for your review!

Poets of the Fall!!! I saw this and squealed, not enough people know this fantastic band!! Now I just hope the "vocal coach reacts" bandwagon gets going and everyone watches this!!!! Other great songs by PotF: All The Way 4U, Cradled in Love, Maybe Tomorrow is Better Day, Daze, Love Will Come To You

Him + The Rasmus + Apocalyptica toghether = Fabulous sweet male duet. ''Apocalyptica - Bittersweet ft Ville and Lauri''

Poets of the Fall is a Finish group. He is my absolute favorite lead singer. I love everything they have done. Very distinctive voice. Two others that I especially love are Daze and Craddled in Love.

If you do another song from POTF, it should be: Poets of the Fall - Temple of Thought (Unplugged Studio Live)

I was so very surprised when I heard this particular song for the first time. The tone of that voice, just captives and tugs on one's emotions. Masterful work there.

You Should Do More Poets of the Fall, All their songs are Amazing.

Wow this was nice surprise! I feel these finnish metal/rock bands have something common in their music, certain melancholic vibe i guess. I get this same vibe when listening Amorphis, Sentenced, Nightwish and many others.

Not swedish site, Finnish site. Recording is from Finnish program and the band is also from Finland. Long live POTF!

"wow, this guy has control" He performed a whole song about taking it

It's so interesting with Finnish singers since their language is "hard" if you know what I mean- but they pronounce english so soft❤ would love to hear this song in finnish :D Love from Sweden🇫🇮🇸🇪

Marko is an amazing singer and he was actually classically trained in singing 😊 I think you should take a look to a live performance of Daze where he does much more falsetto and higher notes and you can appreciate his range

Thank you for this reaction, I love this song! This performance is from a Finnish TV show where ppl surprise their loved ones with their favourite songs.

Ma'am im a POTF fan, and i would love if u react to more of POTF's songs....❤️🤗 From INDIA with love...

My favorite band of all time! You’ll definitely find that every song is an absolute masterclass in emotional depth and poetic songwriting.

Finland is made of Metal. 🇫🇮🤘🏻 Poets of the Fall is there for the aftermath of the Epic Battle-Songs. The ballads. They know this. We need this. Edit: Carnival of Rust is one of my depression coping songs. So are Late Goodbye, and The Poet and the Muse, and War, the three of which appear in bloody good video games. I believe the term thrown around here is "the interpreter of national feelings".

HIM - Wicked Game At Rockpalast 2000. You will aaaAAA fall in love. Before every one kills me saying there are better songs. In THIS specific concert Vallo shows all his wide vocal range. Watch it, and then kill me

One of my absolute favorite bands ever! Thank you for showcasing them, and I hope you venture into more Poets of the Fall. They're amazing!

I’m so glad you’ve listened to these guys! I love rocking along to these amazing songs with you and hearing all your amazing advice. Thank you for everything!

Have had this number on my playlist for quite some time now. Really enjoyed this live version. And totally agree on his tone and voice. Really good lowkey voice that just sounds awesome.

Great reaction. I would also recommend you look into Poets of the Fall's unplugged version of Temple of Thought

Randomly stumbled this video on my recommendations, but I've been a long time fan of Poets of The Fall. I really liked this video for two reasons. First off, I was happy to see someone else enjoy this band so much! Secondly, the way you broke down the way he sang, the nuances in his tone and voice, and the way he does it, gave me a newfound appreciation for Marko's singing even more than I already had before. While these aren't usually the type of videos I watch, I am very glad to have found your channel and I hope you find much success in what you do!

One of my favorite bands. In my opinion they deserve way more fame. Each song is so unique, great lyrics... so rare in modern bands. I'd love to see your reaction and opinions on:- Pearl Jam - Black MTV Unplugged - Rainbow - Stargazer

I have been in love with this band for many years and the emotion and depth in each song is really amazing. I loved your reactions to it.

Oh my god, my heart jumped out of my chest when i saw the title of this.

instant like&sub. I could never explain why Marko's vocals are so enchanting, but you broke it down for me, so thank you for that 💕

This was a nice surprise! Love POTF, Marko is one of my favorite male singers. If you're going to react to more of them I'd highly recommend their unplugged studio live version of Temple of Thought. The first lyrics are how I feel each and every time...'chills, chills come racing down my spine'. Edit: There are too many songs I could list, they're all so good. One of those bands that just deserves so much more attention. Hopefully, this will catch on with some of the other Vocal Coach Reacts.

Great insight to the video! Thanks! Always love how you explain where the voice is coming from!

I've been a huge Poets of the Fall fan since 2006. All of their albums are amazing. Thanks for the video.

Wow, that was awesome, and another great analysis! Congrats on 70k, well deserved! 💜

I've waited for so long for a good vocal coach reaction to Marko, the singer, thank you!!! The band is from Finland and the video is from a Finnish show "SuomiLove" where people can dedicate live song performances to people who are very important to them and surprise them with it. He is absolutely entrancing as a performer. It's my favourite band and one of best songs ever.

Thank you so much, Beth! I'm happy you found Marko's voice as beautiful as I do (and this song, which is my favorite song in the entire world :-) ). Since you mentioned his baritone range and noted a couple of spots where he goes into his head voice for higher notes, I thought it would be interesting to show his range for anyone unfamiliar with his vocals. Contrast his deep baritone in the song False Kings ( ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-vkweStbjjSE.html ) to his clear, sweet falsetto in Cradled in Love ( ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-bp0AHQooVSY.html ). I'm a contralto (or a low mezzo soprano, depending on what reference you look at), but I have trouble singing Cradled in Love in the original key because the low notes are out of my range--but when I raise it up so the lowest notes are just barely reachable, the high notes are right on the bleeding edge of my high range (and this from a song written by a man with a gorgeous, deep baritone voice :-P ).

Been to their concert last month and to see them in a response video like this is amazing! It is such a small band so that's very special! Your appreciation of his voice increased the intensity of my goosebumps lol. 🙏🏼🙏🏼

Always love seeing people reacting to things from my country so thanks you. But you also just have a really good channel and actually react to the videos you watch unlike many other reaction channels. Definitely subbed.

You have no idea how long I've been waiting 4 a vocal coach to talk about his voice. He is my absolute favorite singer of all time and I study him closely. Thank you so much for this video and thank you to the person who suggested it on patreon.

Such a full voice. 👌🏻👌🏻

Vocally, I think you’d really enjoy Black Bird by Alter Bridge. Miles Kennedy is one of the most dynamic rock vocalists out there. And Black Bird is a really emotive song where he shows off his range.

The band is incredible, not to mention the lyrical brilliance in so many songs.

Please, TYPE O NEGATIVE - Black No 1 at Bizarre festival. The lowest, deepest voice ever with 0 effort. Peter Steele's voice was one in a million. 9 minutes of absolute darkness. And beautiful song

You can say wow thousand times to this song that still that won't be enough

This is one of my favorite songs. Thanks for reacting to it!

Wasn’t expecting a POTF video! Such a fan of them, they’re so good

I'm really proud to be from Finland because there are bands like Poets of the fall

My Poets

Been a huge fan of the highly underrated Poets for many, many years so its lovely to see a lesser known band feature in a video like this. I took my girlfriend, a live gig veteran from the festival days to see them in concert last year and she was stunned how he sounded exactly the same live as he does on studio recordings. After the gig she looked at me amazed and just said *"that's the best live band I've ever seen and the best concert I've ever been to!"* I'll be seeing them for the 3rd time this year and she's eager to come along for her second experience.

SO so so glad you did made this video. I hope others follow suit and react to PotF songs. They deserve way way more recognition and I'm so delighted to have someone say such positive things about them; I hope people see this and look up more of their songs.

Thank you Beth, Jennifer & (probably) a Swedish site for giving this Finnish alternative rock band what it certainly deserves. For that I decided to subscribe. P.S. Love your singing as well.

I know this song for years, but I never heard the live, and, wow, so many chills, they are incredible!

This is awesome! Poets are amazing and I’m glad they’re getting more and more recognition

Thank you so much for doing this POTF video. 😍

One of my favorite bands and songs!!! Pure beauty!

Damn, haven’t heard Poets of the fall since “Late Goodbye” on Max Payne 2, awesome. Nice to know what they’re doing now

Thank you Remedy and Alan Wake for introducing me to the amazing Poets of the Fall!

I was watching a different live version of this song and thinking that it would be awesome to see you review this song. Lo and behold, this video showed up in my suggestions. Thanks for reviewing this. I'm not a singer but love your personality and your analysis of these songs.

Just listen to daze and choice millionaire You will know his vocal reach on that song

Saw them live in Stockholm last year & his voice is amazingly beautiful live!! So solid!

Great band. First song I heard from them was "Late Goodbye" which was featured in the Max Payne PC game.

Beth it's like you saw infrared and ultraviolet, but in sound. Love your reactions, you go so into details.

Really love your passion.

I listened to the studio version of this song years ago when it was new and I loved it then, and it's even better live! Thank you for this reaction! The music video was very cool, but the creative runs in this are well worth sacrificing.

Oooooooo I've never heard this version!! Poets are so good! Check out Locking Up the Sun for a more aggressive vocal and Sleep for a lullaby I've played my son since before he was evicted from me hahaha

I'm a huge Poets Fan and it was amazing to listen, how you fell in Markos voice. He is so amazing

Two requests : Gojira - Global Warming [Live at the Silver Cord Studio] Opeth - Ghost of Perdition [Live at The Roundhouse Tapes DVD] Thank you for doing these videos!

That light made your eyes look so cool. Love it. Love you!

Wonderful band, with a wonderful sound, and wonderful songs. Fair and decent detailed reaction. Thanks.

Great video, and incredible song! Would love more reacts to Poets, my absolute favorite band! Thank you!

One of the favourites band for me forever. Thank you for this video 👍

Sleep is another great song. Also Daze by Poets

Saw them live a few years ago, and theyre really good, deserve to be bigger

Marko's voice is soooo clean!! I love it ❤️

I don't usually touch reaction vids with a ten foot pole, but coming across this quite by chance (Poets being my favourite band ever) I had to give it a watch. You clearly know what you're talking about and it was a delight to see you experience the song from start to finish. Consider yourself followed! =)

This song is an absolute gem. Love your analysis also!

Beth: I like that Lust. 😂😂😂

Im so glad i steel have this beautiful song in my playlist

Thank you for the fascinating reaction. I's actually only heard the studio version before, so this was doubly interesting.

It really makes me happy that you like Poets so much. Maarko's voice has always hit me right where it counts, and it's always fun to watch new people discover his power.

Markos voice is incredible! How do you not love it?!

"The way that your voice wobbles when you´re upset" loved that and it made me very emotional. I´ve loved this song since a decade back! Probably the best song ever that came out of Finland!/Stockholm Sweden

Poets of the Fall are just amazing!!!! Seen them live 3 times and each time was a wonderful experience. :) I’ve been a fan of them about 14 years now.

One of my favorite vocalists

Poets of the Fall - Cradled in Love, has him really exploring his vocal capabilities, do a reaction to that one

They are *immensely* talented, and a solid recommendation for... well pretty much anyone. Rock without being too heavy, and so much skill *and* passion from everyone in the band. Been listening to them for almost two decades now (Late Goodbye in Max Payne 2 had me hooked), and how they manage to deliver at this insane level to this day is extremely impressive. During the pandemic they did an acoustic show without audience at a Finnish theatre (the Alexander Theatre in Helsinki) and it's amazing. And that comes from a Swedish metalhead. :) Great to see them, and especially Marko, getting the love they deserve. Thanks, Beth!

I near choked when I saw you did my favorite band....I haven't even watched the video yet and you did opeth I just saw, you are extremely quickly becoming one of my most favorite youtubers

He is one of my favorite singers of all time. As you his tone is so beautiful and his cadence so unconventional.

I literally gasped out loud when I saw this video! Thanks for doing PotF; more please!!

OH MY GOD you just listened to my favorite band ! And not many people know them ! LOVE IT

Love this band, never see much of them in the mainstream rock scene. Love that you reacted to this. Amazing voice. Kind of grabs your soul and uses it to punch you in the gut.
