Wow.. LORNA SHORE "Pain Remains I: Dancing Like Flames" - REACTION / REVIEW 

In this song .. you are the breakdown 😭

Will letting his true voice squeak through in the screams after the spoken word part is what makes it hit so hard to me emotionally

I've had this on repeat since it dropped and the last minute of this song still just gets me

Bro the chills when Will says "a world without you isn't meant for me". Hoooooly fuck

Came for a breakdown, left with an emotional breakdown 😭

This song did everything that I wanted them to do with Cursed To Die. When I heard the melody in that song, I was kinda hoping they'd lean into it for a more melo-death kind of sound, and instead it ending up kind of getting lost in the frenzy and sounded samey. Here, they finally let their melodies take the forefront, and even tamed back the riffing a little bit. The slower drums and more "straight-forward" vocal delivery worked so well for the mood of the song. Either this or Into The Earth is my favorite single, but this song is just BEAUTIFUL.

Muffins! This has to be the only deathcore video I've ever seen that brought tears to my eyes. And when you hear Adam talk about the title to the album and these tracks, and how it relates to his constant suicidal thoughts...this just hits heavy, and in a totally different way than we've come to expect from Lorna. To the Hellfire may have been what put LS on the map for larger audiences, but this could be what elevates them to a brand new level, allowing audiences to form a stronger connection rather just being amazed by the talent and heaviness they bring to the table. Just an incredible track

I can see the issue with the overbearance of blast beats, but not for me. For me, without the blast beats I would miss something. With that being said, the breaks in the blasts from time to time in this song are divine, at just the right moments and perfect length. The guitar solo tho, I am always blown away. Adam is a literal solo god and an absolute beast overall. This is hands down my favorite single so far, it's so beautiful and I get always teary eyed listening to it. A perfect song to stuff yourself full of MUFFINS.

Muffins. Such a beautiful tear jerker. The video the solo, the blast beats which didn't seem overwhelming, new favorite for me for sure.

Also, it's really cool that making a more melodic song didn't instantly translate to "Let's add singing". I almost expected it at some point in the song, but it never came, because Lorna Shore is different. I have no issue with adding clean vocals, but that would've been the predictable way to make an emotional song, and they avoided it. Plus, nobody will beat Whitechapel in the "deathcore with cleans" department, in my opinion!

MUFFINS, also happy to see you react to another Lorna single. Hope you’re doing well, my g

Been looking forward to this reaction, I have been watching your reactions for a good while now and never said something, but you are truly my favourite reacter and i always like to hear your opinion. Plus you are authentic and truly honest about your feelings when you review a song, there you go Muffins

Everytime I hear this song it rips my fucking heart out throws it on the ground and stomps on it. Also I feel that there is more of an impact given that Will is such a fucking nice dude.

Not having a breakdown helped this song tremendously. Great single to put out especially since it thins out the lack of diversity in the recent singles. LS are literally kings and will forever be

That song is the first ever Deathcore Song that made me cry and thats why this song is so special to me and already means a lot to me, cause I also can relate to the lyrics Also To The Hellfire has pretty emotional lyrics, it means a lot to Will

First off, Muffins. Second, appreciate that you reacted to this song and that your opinion of LS has opened up a bit, I see them doing great things for the evolution of Deathcore in the future, and I'm sure we're all excited to see what they put out next

I very much disagree on the past 3 singles bleeding together; they're all so different, to my ears. This one is *WAY* different though, and I love it.

Muffins! Great reaction Birb, definitely agree with your pros/cons list of this track. It's certainly a stand-out from the others realesed on the album so far. Really dig the emotion and part at the end where Will is just talking, a great breakup from the usual heaviness. Have a great weekend bud!

Not sure if anyone has mentioned here but I've seen some people interpreting the sudden cut at the end of the song to the sudden loss of someone and something beautiful being taken away suddenly

Lorna transcended breakdowns to make YOU the breakdown, nah but seriously this song always brings me too tears😭

I absolutely agree with you about the blast beats. I LOVE me some blast beats. As a drummer for 23+ years in extreme metal, I utilize blast beats regularly. However, I try my best to never rely on them and use them sparingly. I try to more rely on rhythm and writing drums you can bang your head to and have a good time with. I still love everything Lorna has done since getting Will on board. But I DO wish they'd tone down the blasts a bit. At least for certain songs. If you like melodic Deathcore/Death Metal, my band is called Darker By Design. We put out an album in early 2021 called Necrolatry. Even if you don't react to it, I still think you may enjoy it. We have a decent variety of styles that we use, and one of our main instruments is a cello. At times, even piano and cello.

It's songs like Dancing Like Flames (seriously emotional deathcore, without it being a joke), To The Hellfire (super-atmospheric blackened deathcore) from Lorna Shore and albums like Elegy by Shadow of Intent (worth a listen, pretty great symphonic deathmetal/core) that've totally reinvigorated my love for extreme music. And, sort of restored my hope for fresh bands within the genre. Because for oldheads like me who grew up on scandinavian melodic deathmetal and oldschool death metal the genre of deathcore wasn't really interesting for... well almost a decade.

I´m going out on a Limb here and say that Lorna Shore will roll over us like a Freighttrain in Part two and three ,wether through sheer Brutallity and Breakdowns or even more emotionality through Cleans und whatnot . I´m o.k. with either 🙂

Bro, Will went Banana Nut MUFFINS on this song. Agree with what you said about them changing it up. Could still do without the blastbeats at times. We know Will can groove per the Lifeblood remix. So Id like to see more from the instrumentals in that area. Otherwise, great track!

Muffins man!! Great takes and love the honest and unbiased reviewing. This song hit hard

Good reaction and review genuine opinions too perfectly encapsulates what a reaction channel should be

I'm glad you don't kiss bands asses. Keep being honest with the reviews 🤙🏻 It's what helps artists grow.

Muffins. Great react and review to an all out awesome song!

Muffins! Never watched a video of yours before, but I liked this one. I appreciate you giving criticism and giving a level headed reaction.

Every new song they release seems to be my new favourite song of theirs, the full album is going to be insane

Muffins 😂 These guys have made it up there with ETID on my favorite bands of all time list. I can't wait to hear this album in its entirety. I'm probably overanalyzing, but I feel like the album will almost follow a 3-act structure and this release kicks off the 3rd act. I'm kind of hoping part II is all about rage after loss and is one of, if not the heaviest song off the album and then part III can either go fairly hopeful or end it on a very melancholic note. I heard they're releasing the second part as the final single and if that's the case I'll probably skip it just to savor the experience of hearing it all the way through on release day. October 14th can't come fast enough!

What a great song and neat to see them branch out and continue to change the scene. Also, I'm now craving some blueberry muffins.

MUFFIIIIIIIIINS! This song legit gave me the feels, which is a first for me listening to such a heavy band

Muffins!! Nice video dude, good reaction. I totally agree with you about the last couple of tracks, they sounded so similar to each track, they are still great tracks but they were very predictable. With this song they definitely changed it up. Very emotional and beautiful song. Excited for the rest.

muffins!! First death core song to create that stage of emotions.. got me a good one!! Fav 2022 heavy yet beautiful song!!! Love the honesty and love the channel!! 🤙🏾🤙🏾

Definitely my favorite song from lorna shore, deathcore really sometimes has no identity in its music. This Definitely speaks to you and it's phenomenal!

Muffins. Great song solid review keep it up

I was watching ravenfires reaction in the chat and watching them change their mind was awesome! This song is beautiful

That intro took me on a ride haha 😂

Aye Reliqa released a new EP. It's absolutely 🔥.

LETS GO 🔥🤘😈🤘🔥

Muffins!! Great review ❤

emotional deathcore born when Caliban drop their single This oath listen to it guys and also watch music video this is the masterpiece for all time

Somebody stole my muffin yesterday and man... The pain remains... 💔 😢 beautiful emotional deathcore by the boys, epic track can't wait to hear it in full and see them live!

Straight to the point raw emotion on those lyrics!

This may be my favorite song of Lorna Shore...can't wait for the all 3 parts

And that solo brooo! That solo!!!!!! 🤩🤩🤩🤩

Muffins! Pro: so different from all the other singles. I did feel ‘Cursed to Die’ was different to a degree, more melodic and even with the breakdown was far more melodeath than deathcore overall. This gave me hints of Reroute eta InFlames at times, and was just such a emotional breath of fresh air in both LS repertoire and in deathcore in general. Can’t wait for parts 2 & 3. Great video and review! Much love.

Nice change of pace. Muffin

Hardest intro since blood soaked symphony by white chapel

I get major Whitechapel vibes from this track and I’m here for it.

... Muffins!! Nah but jokes aside, great reaction! Lorna has been going strong in my opinion, I definitely LOVE the usage of orchestra in the background, that organ hits hard each times. I also agree about the con with the blast beats, it does muddle the songs a bit, everything sounds similar. I appreciate the non-inclusion of a breakdown in the song, although that will surely change in Part 2 haha!

The part that starts just around 5:55 in this video kinda gives me Landon Tewers / Plot In You vibes - anyone else?

Lorna Shore simply does not disappoint

Muffins! Great take as usual this band took us well beyond their wow factor with this one

Love me some Muffins... Oh and Lorna Shore too :D

This song makes me cry every time! I saw them live yesterday and they did not play this! Was very sad, but they played every other song that Will sings. wow

Gotta do a reaction to the new TDWP album it’s worth it

Muffins! Great video!

Muffin. I absolutely loved this song. I love that the brutal breakdown wasn't the music, it was the emotion in the music and lyrics. The video was heart wrenching. I heard that Adam wrote the screenplay for the video.

First plus i love your content

I feel this is there best song yet. I feel the core element real strongly in this one and I feel they blended it well with the heavy blast beats.

Muffins - delicious breakfast muffins. Hehe you like what you like and the whole point of a reaction is to let folks know what you think so it's all good. I know where you're coming from with the relentless machine gunning of the blast beats turning everything into a hyperkinetic stew of noise, it can absolutely annihilate any point of the song if it's not balanced correctly. I love when bands use more dynamics, folks like Shadow of Intent or even Humanities Last Breath are doing insanely creative work with the space in the song which is like nectar to me. I've loved all the singles so far and feel they all have a different thing to say, BUT as you say that's all subjective and this definitely got me. I wasn't obliterated like with Constance but it brought tears to my eyes at points. I also love how they are opening up the genre to so many people, like with Electric Callboy bringing new people to metalcore Lorna Shore seem to have hit the sweet spot with Will they're all at the top of their game and it's wonderful to see. That solo is so good, it, again, has something to say in the song, it is actually beautiful. Great reaction.

Gotta react to As Hell Retreats - Dissent First song they released since they broke up in 2012 but they're back. It's djenty goodness

And i return to nothingness made me tear up at the end just because how beautiful it is. But this hits different. A whole new level.....

Lorna Shore be like, "Melodic Death Metal? Hold my viking horn."

muffins. This song became my favorite and I’m a core kid. It’s so intense but so emotional too.

Muffins!!❤

A another great song by Lorna shore and what I like Is how the solo was slower than normal and muffins.

The feels... Just the feels...

Muffins! Also Hi GollySteve

Finally something a little different! Muffins!

Adam has become one of Deathcore’s top guitarists.

Are you ever gonna react to parts 2 and 3?

The Gloom in the Corner?

Wait for Part 2 & 3, if you think this song is the furthest they've come from the regular deathcore sound. 😉

Angelmaker also has some emotional songs.

muffin :D absolutely immense song :D

Amazing song

Part 2 reaction when?

Your reaction was gold, love this band and I appreciate the deviation away from what we normally expect from them. They are brilliant musicians beyond blast beats. 🖤🔥🤟

Historical reaction! Muffins

The solo and final verse broke me entirely

Better late than never right? Time to snack on a Muffin...

Fit for an Autopsy - Mirrors is another good emotional ride. Loss through drug addiction.

:::crying in deathcore::::

Sup metal jesus

Why specifically muffins? Lol. But yea this song kicks ass and i think its lornas best work so far because of all the same reasons you touched on.

I feel the same about them every song was sounding basically the same, but this song really blew me away glad they changed it up

Lorna is now in a league of their own

muffins? lol. anyways I think this song has the least amount of blast beat parts I heard from them since Will took over. I'm curious as to which sections you thought would have been better if different drum fills or patterns were inserted.

What I Would Give by Angelmaker is another incredible emotional death core song

I actually think this is their best song to date and no breakdown THANK FUCKING GOD

I’m assuming the ending was just a metaphor of losing someone without any expectation.

Muffin, my dude

muffins my dude

i like blueberry muffins :)

Or is it the fact that there are so many blast beats that those rare slower beats end up becoming more impactful?

Wanna hear what Croatian metalcore sounds like?! Then look no more and head to Pale Origins and their Deathbreather. I was blown away realizing that here in Croatia we have a band that sounds like they do..fekin A+.. 🤘😎

I ate a whole tin of muffins while crying to this song...😭
