I LOVE Sleep Token, but I personally prefer the Will Ramos version. Btw, you now have to check out his cover of Chokehold, and his own bands songs, they're amazing!
Now react to Will’s one-take of Lorna Shore’s “To the Hellfire” and you’ll know why this blew people’s minds. Before this, nobody really knew that he could sing clean.
His cover of RAIN with Nik Nocturnal is so good too. Will is such a cutie pie and sweetie. I've seen a couple videos from people at Sleep Token concerts and they have spotted Will in the audience too. He's a huge ST fan. You look amazing with or without the blue hair. 😊💙🖤
If you want to see more of his stuff I would recommend the band he's in "Lorna Shore To the Hellfire One Take". You get a good image of how he sings to song.
Will's version is good, but you just can't replicate the richness and texture of Vessel's voice. Once you hear Vessel sing it, everything else pales in comparison.
@@Kelly_Cook Yah, man. The vocals aren't meant to be harsh and overpowering. That's not the point of the song. Will's clean vocals here just sounds like a guy attempting a cover. His cleans don't fit the mood of the song at all, and so, he resorts to what he's comfortable doing...harsh deathcore screams, which on their own are cool, but they don't really fit the mood of the song. There's nothing hypnotic about someone doing deathcore screams. Vessel's calculated breathiness and repeated vocal runs are what's hypnotic, like someone in a trance repeating a chant over and over.
Will Ramos isn't human. No human is capable of generating those sounds. They stuck a camera down his nose and I directly watched him, but I still don't believe it. It's those damn chemtrails.
“To the hellfire” is a showcase of Will’s vocal talent, but the “pain remains” trilogy is where the feels are. Pull up the lyrics, watch the music videos, and have yourself a good cry.
Love Will as a vocalist doing what he does best (death mode) but Vessel is better at the cleans, technically. Putting vocal tone preferences aside, Will has a way to go on cleans. I have no doubt he will get there. The wig looks good on you I think but If I never saw your vids and I randomly saw you in public I might think you were one of those people Tom MacDonald raps about. 😁 Also check out Jinjer if you haven't yet. Tatiana Shmayluk is insanely good at what she does.
It's insane that the first time you heard Will Ramos was when he was singing. So backwards. You were right about one thing -- His screams are the best out there. His range in screams is unmatched. He's straight up metal/deathcore.
this is one of the times that the cover really competes with the original, but he put so much emotion into it especially with the screams it was amazing.
His ban is named Lorna Shore has some bangers! Wanna cry? Listen to the Pain Remains I, II and III. Wanna get adrenalin bump? Good, listen to To the Hellfire or to Sun//Eater. All of them are so soooo good :)
That's crazy! I discovered Kirin Camp 2 days ago and have been watching her videos incessantly. I don't even know how it got in my recommendations, but I'm here for it.
No. No he did not. No one can do it better than vessel. 1 of a kind voice on that man. And it sounds exactly the same live. Saw them in Boston a few days ago. 🖤Sleeptoken🖤
5:05 Lol when Vango decides based off of this video that she wants to check out his band. This video being the first time that any of us actually realized Will can _sing,_ and wasn't just a horrifying demonscream factory 🤣
Both are good in their own way, but I agree it’s very difficult to rise up to the bar Vessel has set. However will does have excellent screams🤷🏻♂️ btw your singing… takes guts to try and compete with these 2 🤌🏻 you get an E for effort 😬 😂much love to you and your channel Vanessa🤙🏻
You look like Khope from Deadric with the blue hair. Even though she doens t have blue hair I think her blond hair makes her face more of a focal point and the blue does the same for you.
must check out “to the hellfire” one take, the main song that blew up the band especially Will, other songs to check out as well are Pain remains trilogy and into the earth
Hey has an entire video with Elizabeth where they went to a specialist and the doctors all said they never seen vocal cords like wills hes a unicorn theh said. They put a mic down his throat as he sings
@vanessagomes i think you would like will ramos covering joji and i think you would love the sleep token song called "the apperition" its haunting and will linger in your soul :D
With that hair change you know what would be a good reaction, let's introduce you too - Kim Dracula - Drown ... gives the vibes you go for on the channel.
I give Will Ramos credit for the harsh vocals in his music, but I still think Vessel's "soulful" sound in the heavy genre is too unique to not want to explore more of.
Sleep Token did it better, but Will's version is still Epic🤌🏼🔥 if you do react to Lorna Shore then definitely listen to the Pain Remains trilogy and watch the video that has all 3 music videos together. Also, make sure you have tissues ready. Your eyes will water😭 Will has the best harsh vocals ever in any type of Metal. To the Hellfire might be a better song to react to first. Leave the trilogy for a follow-up to it.
I remember when this dropped and everyone heard Will do cleans for the first time and we were like 😮 If you’re checking out Lorna Shore….its NOTHING like this and not a clean vocal in sight 😂 Will is also a HUGE fan of Sleep Token.
@@vanessagomes yeah it’s definitely intense. The things Will can do with his voice is amazing. I’m not a big fan of that style of music but I respect it
I will always appreciate Will's love for Sleep Token. But his music is not for me. It's what people have came to dub screamo. For alot of casual listeners, they have never heard Will's clean vocals untill the Sleep Token covers.
Nah, people haven't "came to dub" it screamo, because "screamo" is an *actual* hardcore & punk-adjacent genre that's been around for decades, and it's nowhere near the stylistic spaces that Lorna Shore move around in. And it ain't even casual listeners, like, Will's fans didn't even know the man _could_ sing until he started playin around with ST lmao That said, Lorna Shore isn't my thing either, but I love Will Ramos anyway. He's such a kind and charismatic guy, how could you not!
@@Trepanation21 you're totally right. I really don't get into his style at all, I've just heard people on social media call screamo. But I watch all the videos that he did with The Charismatic voice. I saw the one where he pretended to be her and made a video reacting to one of his covers.... It was hilarious. Their relationship is unexpected but amazing.
Blue or black hair still pretty. Im with you Tokens cleans better, screams took the cover to another level. You have a beautiful (not sure its the right word) but huskier voice. Proper training you would sound low key amazing on sad songs. Thats a compliment cant stand the poppy higher pitch stuff. Good reaction.
If you listen to them back to back its really hard to say the original is better. I love sleep Token and generally prefer their style to the lead singers band (Lorna Shore), but the mixing and details he adds during the cover make the original just seem basic. I truly enjoy both versions and of course, all due respect to the original writing, however for me he out does them in the cover from start to finish. My sole critique is that when he was hitting those falsetto runs in the bridge the vocals should have been bumped up 1 notch because the runs he performs there are just flawless and after every listen I always wish they stood out more.
Vessel wrote it...Will only covers it. Personally Ive never listen to Will and honestly never will (all pun intended lol). Nothing beats the ORIGINAL creativity of a brilliant musician who COMPOSED all of these amazing songs from his imagination. One is a King the other simply a follower riding off the coatails of anothers creativity. Being a musician myself I stand behind my honest opinion. Always luv ur reactions tho so keep up the good work 💯❤
Lorna Shore is so good...but this is NOT what they do. 😄 They are EXCELLENT,so good, but they dont do this. Do go check them out! You will have goosebumps!!
If you like this one you need to do Will doing sleep tokens chokehold. I think it's even better than this one. Then you need to get into some of Lorna Shore
I prefer wills cover if hypnosis and chokehold. It’s don’t care for will version of dark signs or rain. He sang the wrong lyrics in rain 3 times and I can’t get down with that 😢 I do love his cover of slow dancing in the dark and his song riptide. Lorna Shore is death core metal dunno if you’re into that. He sounds like a demon lol
Love will, but he ain't vessel. Shouldn't really be compared though. A better comparison would be 2 different people that covered an original. Instead of comparing to the OG pimp.
Just be aware that Lorna Shore is nothing but harsh vocals lol But I hope you do check em out! A good first song would probably be Pain Remains I: Dancing like Flames Then maybe you’ll be ready for songs like To The Hellfire or Sun//Eater lol
@@paulharris9250 My name isn’t Gomez lol it’s not even pronounced like that…. and for a marine it’s a shame you’re concerned about this in the comment sections of RU-vid. Didn’t they teach you how to prioritize your time better? 😂
I honestly can't stand "covers".....and Sleep Token covers are not it for me at all 🤷🏻♂️🤣 you can't even remotely come close to his voice or styling....and usually a cover is a person's take on the original....but people should stay away from doing ST covers 🤣
I personally disagree I think his singing is better than sleep token I notice more emotion and personality in his singing and it sounds really clean imo
@@inviz88 I can say the exact same to you most people like the singing on wills version a lot it's wayyyy better than sleep tokens version I been listening to metal and rock music for well over a year and been listening to songs with lots of cleans for many years this sounds better to me then sleep tokens version will Ramos is really good at singing
While I appreciate the love that Will shows for Sleep Token, I think all his covers are ass. Don’t get me wrong, he’s VERY good at what he does, but these are subpar IMO.
Those shoes are way too big, wayyyyy too big.! Compared to Vessel's rich sounding british pronunciation, Will's american pronunciation sounds totally wrong. It sucks how he's pronouncing the lyrics. Nice, but it's far away from being great.
Considering the Brits just basically make shit up when they're pronouncing things (and have *literally* like 40 different dialects for a place that's 40x smaller than the US) that have absolutely no bearing on the actual letters involved in the words they're saying, I find your comment highly amusing.
