@Jairon_Junior 25 дней назад

Hell yeah, finally Wintersun, but definitely "Land of Snow and Sorrow" is more repetitive in my opinion, "Sons of Winter and Stars" is more catchy I think or "Time" would've been better too. For the first album in case you guys give it a try, "Beautiful Death", "Battle Against Time" are excellent choices, if you go for popularity you probably will endup with "beyond the dark sun" is good, but not as good as the 2 I've mentioned. Can't wait for another try

I love Judsons analysis connected to his musical skills. For me, he can add small takes of basic music theory and how he looks at the compositions and how it relates to his world. Ian a guitarist myself and I am usually curious of how they think in other genres. Myrath for example that have Arabic and Middle Eastern elements which you clearly hear. Keep up the good work

@KyleDaniels93 25 дней назад

Back in high school my buddy and I were obsessed with Ensiferum and tried so hard to start up a folk metal band. Iron or Tale Of Revenge is my vote for an Ensiferum reaction. I live in Australia and down here it’s currently winter, son 🥶

@guylaub8505 25 дней назад

Love to see you doing some Wintersun. :) Wintersun are WAY heavier than Nightwish(or Epica), you just picked "the ballad" like you said in the video, I guess it's more popular cause it is easier listening. Wouldn't be my personal pick for a reaction video but love to see them on the channel and can't wait for their new album. \m/

@ricardoolivo5244 5 дней назад

I don't think there is a band out there more "advanced" in musical terms than Wintersun. Top musicianship, in pretty much all aspects. Having said that, 'Land of Snow and Sorrow' is probably not the right choice to enter their realm. 'Time' would probably be my top choice to begin to dig them.

@_Helm_ 22 дня назад

the extended heavy metal genres as they happened in historical order: new wave of British heavy metal comes, then inspires speed/thrash/power (all closely related). Death, doom, black and prog are further extensions coming out of that boom. It all happened in 5-10 years. All of them were thought of at the time as more 'extreme' in one way or another versions of the core heavy metal idea, meant to either supplant it or replace it in a highly competitive musical market of the 80s and early 90s. Hence heavy metal as the historical root can be seen as a 1970s to early 1980s thing and all the branches of extremity can be seen as a 90s and onwards thing. When people go 'blackened symphonic epic prog power death doom metal' they're basically saying 'this is an extreme metal band that has a lot of influences'. At some point what was extremity in the past becomes more rote to the trained and older audience (or due to shifting tastes, for a younger audience as well) as ironically when the hyperspeed, the blasting, all these extreme metal tricks are used all over and by everyone, all this music stops feeling extreme and goes back to being broadly what the culture understands as heavy metal. Extreme metal seems to be a term of the past, but it does contextualize and historicize bands like Wintersun (for which I have no preference so I will not comment on) Thankfully aside from all this genre talk, a good song is a good song, songwriting always wins, storytelling and mood and audio pictures always win, not who plays fastest or densest. So in a way it would be a very progressive outlook to just call all this shit heavy metal again and be done with it. Sure, being able to tell when a band is coming from Slayer or from Helloween or from Morbid Angel is important to get the metal culture, but it will be a waste of your time and energy to start talking about metal in these 'symphonic blackened death/doom' terms, your intuition is correct.

As an addendum to anyone who is reading this on or after August 30th (2024) and is not familiar with the band, considering that Time II is releasing on August 30th, I would recommend listening to both Time I and II back to back since it was originally supposed to be just one album called Time.

Finally, Wintersun! This album is the one I consider the best-written of all time. That being said, yes, this is the "simple" track on that album. There are five tracks, but two of them are basically intros, so there's only three true songs- Sons of Winter and Stars, Land of Snow and Sorrow, and Time. Sons of Winter and Stars and Time are both more complex than this one, although I could personally never pick a favorite between the three. Highly recommend checking those out, though. Their first album was decent, but nowhere near on the same level, as you observed from whichever track you first listened to. Their follow up to this album, The Forest Seasons, was a huge downgrade. Probably stay away from that one and just wait for Time II to come out. One way or another, can't wait to see more Wintersun reactions. Many channels react to them, but as I'm sure you know, most reaction channels aren't very sincere in the opinions they give, so it's hard to find good ones. This is one of the few good ones, for sure.

@blechtic 25 дней назад

They are a description of the music. People like and dislike music genres for their different features, so a genre description may help them find out whether they might like it or not ahead of time and help in looking for similar music afterwards. It's not the exercise in OCD you might think it is, not that there's anything inherently wrong with that either, but simply giving a quick verbal idea of what the music is like. Ever read a music review? Genre and subgenre definitions give context to and define the range of the reviewer's descriptions, allowing them a freer range to describe nuances and impressions without being misleading. So, just because you don't have a use for genres, it doesn't mean others don't find them useful in appropriate contexts.

@yankeedude252 21 день назад

It's necessary with metal because of how diverse it is as a genre. Power metal is absolutely nothing like black metal, and neither are anything like deathcore. The world of metal is vast, it must be broken up into smaller sections so you know what you're getting into and where to look for more bands that you like. Even the smaller subgenres are important. I don't like traditional death metal, but melodic death metal is my favorite genre in all of music. They're that different.
