Vocal coach and metal vocalist, Mary Zimmer, brings another reaction video to the Voicehacks channel! Today we'll be taking a look at the pleasantly surprising vocals of Leprous' Einar Solberg. I listen to the song "Below" for the first time and give my impressions on it as both a voice teacher and vocalist. Thanks everyone for the suggestions and recommendations!!

If you're interested in checking Leprous out again, there is a song on their newest album where Einar basically employs the full extent of his vocal capabilities. The whole song, "Nighttime Disguise," feels like a good representation of Leprous as a whole.

@Gorg0nops 4 месяца назад

This is what I call "a band's perfect song", which is not the most popular but one that showcases all/most of the band's signatures. Some great examples are Queen's The Show Must Go On, Creedence's Ramble Tamble; Maiden's The Shadows in the Valley (or,something like that).

@scottthomson5768 4 года назад

This was also MY first time hearing Leprous, an amazing vocalist!

@sebastianarmas897 4 года назад

Leprous’s earlier material contains their heavier material. Their first two albums are very technical and proggy, while everything after that focuses more on atmosphere with vocal-centered compositions. Their two newest albums didn’t have any harsh vocals in them, since they’ve softened up their sound with each album that they make

@connors3807 3 года назад

"This is probably the cleanest thing that I have reacted to in a while" Hahah Glad you liked it, since I was one of the people that suggested it. That belting/falsetto switch he does is outstanding.

Worth noting for interest, and forgive me if this gets mentioned(only 1/3 of my way into the video) - the singer/keyboardist is the brother in law of Emperor's Ihsahn, and Leprous itself is also the full time backing band for both Ihsahn live, and Emperor live.

I'm still catching up on your material, and am SO glad to see a Leprous review. I actually just covered "Stuck" from their prior album, and would love to figure out how Einar does his harsh vocals in their other content. Slowly learning from you and others that singing harsh does NOT mean you'll destroy your voice, and I'm loving exploring that, myself (I come from a classical background). Tl;dr: Thanks for the awesome content!

@MrDollarRoxx 4 года назад

Yes, there you go! He really is something isn't he? He's become one of my favourite vocalists, if not THE favourite. But yeah, you should check out some more and "Slave" live at Rockefeller is for sure a good choice to hear his harsh vocals. Also it would be cool if you check out "Contaminate Me" from the same gig (Ihsahn from Emperor is in this one btw, he's actually married to Einar's sister so they've done guest appearances on each other's records from time to time!) and then "Alleviate" from the record this track is on cus that's a..progression. 😅 Both are so so worth your time though, I promise! Also I'm gonna throw a track at you that I haven't seen anyone suggest yet, from their earlier days - "Acquired Taste". No harsh vocals, but his vocal run towards the end is crazy.

@harryskoulas233 3 года назад

The most impressive in this guy is that he is a metalhead in heart. Keyboards and backing vocals in Emperor for a few times. 2006 Wacken appearance of Emperor (lots of videos in RU-vid) . Thank me later. 😉

@DreginyReacts 3 года назад

I don't think he likes metal music anymore, unfortunately. Seeing Einar talk about older Leprous music is very sad. It's always about how he 'regrets' it, hopes to never play it live & and even that he wishes he had never recorded the heavier stuff.

Leprous is an amazing band, very versatile in the kind of music they make. Since you mention distortion, the singer’s brother in law is Ihsahn. I guess you should know him :) They did this materpiece together called ‘Contaminate Me’ and the live version at Rockefeller Music Hall is one of the most intense moments in recent musical history. Trust me. You should check this out. Not only are the vocals killing it but the music is so much heavier. As I said, intense.

Great video! You should definitely listen to more of their stuff, either through the channel or on your own time. If you've looked into the band further after this video I suppose you may already know but Leprous' vocalist, Einar, is Starofash's (or, as most people that were around in the 90s may know her, Ihriel) younger brother - as you can imagine, growing up having Ihsahn as your brother-in-law most definitely had a large impact on Einar and his musical propensity and proficiency. Obviously not taking anything away from his and Leprous' success over the years, they deserve everything they've achieved thus far, but I'm thankful Ihsahn has helped them any chance he gets.
