*No amount of showers is gonna clean that filth off*
Comment what you want me to react to down below!
some MeloDeath or TechDeath would be awesome
React to crush by Polyphia
Would love you to check out something by Sleep Token. Not always the heaviest but do bring it. The Offering, God's or Higher are a good choice.
I don't know if i mentioned it but Hacktivist are Pretty awesome
This is exile - Whitechapel
Who else has found great bands through nick
apparently not you with that linkin park profile pic
@@jacksonelder8519 linkin parks a great band not a fan of the new album but a huge influince to many
I found Loathe because of this channel. Loathe is the best fucking shit ever.
@@jacksonelder8519 are you seriously out here disrespecting Linkin Park... To gulag with you
@@RiggsHB holy shit just checked em out they're insane
Tuning: Drop Satan

Ege Urgan yup
@@tfwnoyandere Oi I have feelings you know
Lol
String: bridge cable
"No amount of showers is gonna clean that filth off"
Just gonna add that to my repertoire of ways to describe bangers.
Jason Miller :D
Damn, these guitars are almost as low as my self esteem
LaserDeathTurtle gg
Lead singer looks like the evil version of lead singer of a day to remember lmao
Is he from Earth-2?
gotta love his evil twin XD
Lol
*"Those poor kids in the pit. Those poor souls"*
Nik really loves talking about kids getting destroyed
Lone Conqueror Gotta warn them
'pterodactyl demon' I can't x'D
Yasmin Bela the thing it fits soooo well.
Although the "p" is silent i want to say it anyway when i say that word :|
Yasmin Bela that part surprised me
Wait what! New reflections????? Actias Luna is one of my favorite songs ever.
Edit: That was absolutely nothing like Actias Luna
Jared: "But does it Djent?"
Reflections: "Hold our beers"
Reflections are local dudes where I’m from, our entire state blew up when they dropped this hahaha
This is the noise you hear when you dip your head in the river of styx
I reaaaally recommend checking out their previous album, The Color Clear. There are songs as heavy as this, but there are also more melodic and ambient songs. There's a good variety in The Color Clear.
Man... if anyone is here listening, they are probably familiar with The Color Clear! Us die hard Reflections fans have been waiting 4 years. This release was highly anticipated. Also.... this is literally the first new track they have dropped. The Color Clear is an absolutely beautiful album, however I think there will be some melodic sounding songs on the new album! This track is heavy as all fuck. I think it's to catch all of our attention.
RELEVANT This song gives heavy Exi(s)t vibes!
RELEVANT yep. It’s like them saying “we’re fucking back. “ I’m so happy with this though, I never stopped listening to TCC
I fucking love Exi(s)t, it's just beauty
@@punchdrunkfunk23 couldn't agree more! Definitely a wicked heavy song with nice subtle hints of their previous work.
I’m a drummer and I feel like if i was THE drummer for reflections I would get lost in the melody
Yeah I got that feel too. Great focus on his part.
Josiah Sutton ok
"I just never really went deeper into them." Nik Nocturnal 2019
Maybe he didnt go deeper, but they went deep into everyone that listened to the song
Seth Ford ;)
hmmmmmmmmmm...
Saw Jake their vocalist mention he and their guitarist Logsan wrote this whole album and he does the drum playthrough for this song so I believe he wrote and recorded the drums too. He's an absolute powerhouse.
It has been years but i finally got to see them perform this live this weekend and holy fuck. Best live experience ive ever had. Reflections killed it
I never thought I’d see the day when reflections released new music. I haven’t heard their new material since Charles Caswell left.
Same tbh. Everything they made after Charles left was pretty weak imo
The Color Clear is amazing.
Rich McConnell The Color Clear is the best record in history
Dylan LikesOAA except Exi(s)t was better
same. just a *few* songs from "The Color Clear" are really good like Autumnus, Actias Luna, Translucence, Transparence, you know, the melodic ones.
the other songs are just a complete copy paste for me personally.
PLEASE REACT TO TERMINA - LUCID ITS THE BEST SONG I'VE EVER HEARD
Pamazacre
Played with reflections years ago. Smoked some "tobacco" in my car with them. Cool dudes
Its youtube... you can say weed.....
@@davidhampton7982 I know. That was me trying to be funny
massive "the fantasy effect" vibes, i can't wait to hear the whole album
I miss that time, i listened that alb00m millions of times
but with better production quality!
@@brunomtk6979 I still listen to that album a million times a week.
Once again bro, authentic 👍 much love, great song and reaction
So good seeing everyone so hyped about their return. What a great time to be alive! REFLECTIONS WILLOW 2020
I thought the same thing when I first heard the song, but now listening to a bunch I guess goosebumps when the parts change. especially the vocal changes
Jared: but does it djent?
Reflections: hold our strings
WE NEED THE IMMORTAL LORNA SHORE REACTION NIK!!!!!!🤯🤯
david Palosika I’d love to but vid will prob get blocked :(
@@NikNocturnal edit the album cover over the music video. Metalbirb and GalacticCriminal were both able to get theirs up by doing that.
It’s been a very long time since I smiled because of how heavy a song hits
This really sounds like a mix of emmure, slaughter to prevail, rings of saturn (and obviously reflections). Wasnt expecting this exactly from their last few albums but honestly this is sick
This song was very interesting and I love it awesome and hilarious reaction as always nick keep up the great work 🤘🏻🤘🏻
Glad you mentioned Emmure. Definitely reminded me of them to.
Fun fact most people don’t know: the vocalist (Jake) has said in interviews that he has always written the drum parts for their music and then let the actual drummer (Nick) put his spin on it. He has a beautiful drum kit and although I’ve never had the pleasure of seeing him use it in a video or anything, he obviously must shred. I also was expecting at least a chorus or some sort of focal point but I love the fuck out of their aggressive side so I’m not complaining.
bringing back the telephone pole guitar string gauge tuning
Every Nik reaction video be like "Bassist did alright"
the color clear was one of the best metalcore albums in recent years. no gutteral vocals more feels inducing and it actually was the exact emotional state of then vocalist
The fact that he can go from such depth to such height with little to no effort or preparation is just absolutely amazing.
I know everyone says it on your reaction videos but when you get hyped for the brutality of a song, it’s so relatable lol.
Minnesota metal at its finest! 👌🤘 Dont sleep on Reflections.
His reactions are priceless😍😀
My boy is back! Hell yeah!
This band is dope. Thanks for sharing bro
Always love these vids.
Thanks for reacting to this song. Thats one more song for me that i am gonna play dead. This shit is so fucking heavy
MY FUCKIN BOYS! Us Minnesotans have been waiting for these guys to pop back out!
much appreciated homie
Hey man ! I really enjoy your works!
I loved your reaction!
I seen the drum play through video as an ad once. Didn’t even care what I was originally there for anymore.
Fuckin love this band
Rumor is this is the secret boss level on powerwash simulator. Absolutely filthy.
these dudes are using bridge cables on their guitars & I love it so much
Been waiting for Reflections to come back for way, way too long!
Ahh, my favourite kind of guitars - static noises with high alien sounds.
That "cool innovation guitar work from the end" stuff is basicly what makes Reflections that awesome for me and I can only advise you to listen through them some more because in lots of their songs the have way more riffage and dissonant fast guitar stuff and it sounds like thats exactly what you where looking for
A great old one from Reflections to check out is Vain Words From Empty Minds
Bleed from within- the end of all we know.
Cmon Nik, everyone is waiting
Listen to the color clear and exist all the way through, masterpieces
Bruh, your opening reaction was priceless. Just.."fuck" 😂
Bleed From Within - The End of All We Know :>
Xdeelol yes pleaseee
Dude I missed this band! I miss when Charles Caswell played with them, Exi(s)t was such an insane album
“YOU FUCKING PTERODACTYL DEMON” I lost my shit hahahaha
Jeez. I haven't listened to Reflections in like 8 years. Thanks for the reminder.
Hey Nik! Look up there playthrough to "an artifact" they are holly skilled. never see someone so fast do a scale run.
The Tony Danza Tapdance Extravaganza is heavy in this.
Check out Make Way for Man - Fireflies or Ideations. Metalcore band from Perth. Dual vocalist who both sing, scream, growl and fry. Please enjoy!!!
Instant. Relentless. Smashing.
please, PLEASE listen to their album “The Color Clear”! it’s incredible, and it delivers in every facet. the best record ever written, by FAR.
I don't have a CD player anymore, but I pre-ordered the new Reflections already. I can't say enough about this band. I've followed from the very start of The Fantasy Effect and they are just one of the most standout best bands across all the metal genres I listen to. It all started with guitar playthroughs with Patty and Charles. Was sad when Charles left, but we got Berried Alive so I can't complain. The band went on hiatus after The Color Clear, very happy to have them back and this song to reintroduce themselves is very fitting!
The new guitar player on the left of the vocalist is Logan Young. He's from all over the US and he's also currently in the guitar player of Mothersound. If you like shit like this, check out his old band Hollow Point or his thall/djent project Dal Av
Lmfao One giant breakdown song that was interesting 👌 great video dude!
mothe: we have josh travis at home
josh travis at home:
I know it's late and you got asked this a lot, but any chance for a Polaris - Masochist reaction? :D
Really love your content, dude!
The bassist Francis Xyana is freaking amazing. And yes its the same vocalist since the first album, Jake Wolf.
Low low low underground tuning. I have listened to this masterpiece for hours🤩🤗🤩
That emmure comment was spot on
Holy fuck. Love this song so much and great reaction! They just dropped a new single called “help” it’s even heavier you gotta listen to it
The color clear is one of the best metalcore/djent albums of all time
Imagine if Charles Caswell was still in reflections, how crazier could berried alive turn?
Yesss I wonder, miss the old Reflections but this was cool
i think if charles was still in Reflections he would have less time to devote to berried alive and we would probably get a more cookie cutter djent solo project. i prefer it the way we have it, where charles can legitimately make his guitar say “fuck you”
Apparently the relationship between the rest of the band and charles wasn't great though, i believe if he kept playing with them we wouldn't have stuff like The Color Clear which is imo their best record.
It's heavy but not sure I'm feeling it. When the tuning is so low nothing really stands out
It was a shame with the breakdown after the long pre-breakdown, because the guitars couldn't really do anything extra to add to it
blegh agreed, that build up was unnecessary too. But that makes it a bit different, overall I’m gonna bump this non stop
agreed
Completely agree, the guitars just sound the same through the entire song.
agreed, it got super monotonous after the first minute
I did not believe that they came back. Sick.
Nik how did you come up with the whole Nik nocturnal thing? It's cool
Cheers from America !
1:14 when you notice u stepped into drop satan
Sums up my dream reflection from nothing. Sound like a movie with bunch of glass horror
No bassists were hurt in the making of this song
Bro, you should check out : dance gavin dance - death of the robot with human hair... or son of robot .. both are hot fire that you'll love
I would like to see you do a comparison reaction video of Alazka and their two lead vocals. So a reaction to an older song with Kasim: Empty Throne, maybe? And their new song with the new singer, Tobias: Dead End.
I’m so glad you saw this too
Would love to see your reactions to Abandoned- Unprocessed and Cloud Cascade- Invent, Animate 🙏
"ULTRA MAGNUS" from Watch out Stampede... Thanx !
You put off a Neatmike vibe and I love it
Can we count this as day 28? Fine still day 27 of now really getting in Nik's nerves about that damn cover.
Shit he's going to end up making a vid on how annoying I am lmao
Now that is really sick.
So this is what spawned the demons that now haunt us in 2020
I hope some elements of Color Clear come back to their new album
Geez man reflections turning into some slam metal. Damn I did not expect that. Definitely not what I remember but I sorta like it. Ok nevermind it seems they were like this in the last album too so I must just be remembering wrong 😂. Actually the last album had a bit more metalcore elements, but the new album is just straight up deathcore or slam metal or whatever you wanna call it lol.
Should react to Thornhill - Where we go when we die xx
Nik, you deeeeeeefinitely need to go back and listen to Sadist from these guys if you haven't yet. Was my favorite track of theirs before this one.
You know it's a good breakdown when nik makes the nastiest face
Oh my fuck yes... finally new shit and no disappointment
The ending sounded like 2019 version of Recreant by Chrlsea grin
