Hello B-E-A-U-TIFUL People!! SPECIAL QUESTION FOR YOU: What/who should I listen to next?! __________________ In today’s video, I show you my reaction, as a Juilliard trained opera singer and vocal coach, to POWERWOLF ft. Alissa White-Gluz performing "Demons Are A Girl's Best Friend." Help make these videos possible: Patreon: Patreon.com/MaggieRenee. Free Vocal Course for you: skl.sh/3aHdSuy Follow me on Instagram: @MaggieReneeMusic Thank you for all of your wonderful support! 💖
If you thought that was much you should watch something with Arch Enemy and Angela Gossow which Alissa replaced. We will rise is a great live song for example.
To really get a sense of what Alissa White-Gluz is capable of, I strongly suggest a reaction to "Reason to Believe" by Arch Enemy. For personal interest, since I don't know it would make a good react - have a listen to "Swan Lake" by The Agonist in which she sings the famous bit acapella. Her versatility is a lot of fun and she is a desperately underrated vocalist.
Hi Maggie Alissa is a fellow Canadian. She's vegan. She does do clean vocals. You should react to Alissa and Tarja and also Arch Enemy singing The Eagle Flies Alone. Floor growls also.
In the studio people can appear to do things forever. Arch Enemy has up to 200 shows a year and heavy vocals for 60-90min non stop. That's stamina. Alissa's predecessor Angela Gossow is a heavy vocal pioneer. She was the first (lady) to make it big.
Alyssa can growl a whole set of songs when her band is in months of touring and she can still manage it. Not only her but all the growlers in metal bands does that. It's a matter of how they take care of their voice.
this version is great, but i still prefer the lead singer especially his live performances. his (spoiler?) opera/classical training really makes their sounds unique. 'alive and dead' is my current favorite which is hard to type because almost all of their songs are on my main playlist.
Alissa is truly awesome. There are some who will forever miss Angela Gossow from Arch Enemy, but IMO Alissa is killing it also. Back in 2012, she was guesting with Elize Ryd of Amaranthe on Kamelot's tour, where they were supporting Nightwish. Checkout "Sacrimony ft Alissa & Elize for that). Nightwish singer Anette was hospitalised with flu in Denver. Rather than cancel the show, Alissa and Elize split the set list between them (with a whole 2hrs to rehearse) with some crowd karaoke. For more on this see the documentary "Nightwish Denver Debacle". This is a fun song by Alissa. She is more brutal in Arch Enemy - especially live - but you see more diversity with her collab again with Kamelot "Liar Liar"
Thank you for your comment. Did you like the new Nightwish video reaction I just posted? Will you be there for my 195K Subscriber Celebration Live Stream tomorrow?
@@maggiereneemusic Loved all your Nightwish reactions. Will make every effort with the livestream, but I'm in the UK so it can depend on timezones. Sometimes I get to catch a stream whilst I'm doing the evening dog walk. Hopefully catch you tomorrow
Nuts. That's 11pm lol. Nevertheless, I will catch the replay. Could I also suggest a band? Blackbriar are an amazing Dutch Symphoic/Gothic metal band with an awesome singer - Zora. They do dark fairy tale type stuff and thinly veiled feminist revisions of witchcraft, etc. "Arms of the Ocean" or the new "Fairy of the Bog" are excellent showcases
One of my favorite songs! You should also checkout the original with their regular singer Atila for comparison but this is my favorite. The original is more sexually suggestive (check the lyrics) where this one is more about Alyssa's demon power over humans. Also love her sassy interaction with her tiefling acolytes and the hooky melodies. For more Alyssa check out her guest vocals with Kamelot. Sacrimony live with Elize Ryd of Amaranthe and Liar, Liar official music video (where she sings both clean and harsh, quite beautiful). Also checkout her regular gig with Arch Enemy (my favorite is House of Mirrors).
If you want to hear her clean vocals, I would recomend Arch Enemy - Reason to Believe, or Kamelot - Liar Liar, to hear more of her growl, one of Arch Enemy's new singles, Deceiver, Deceiver or House of Mirrors would be perfect. By the way, from what I know, Alissa uses fry scream more often than false chord scream. The previous Arch Enemy vocalist, Angela Gossow, who by the way is one of the first women who were doing growls, was using fals chord scream. So even though Alissa is singing most of Angela's songs, she sounds different, because of her technique.
If you´re in for another clean/scream treat, try Arkona, it´s Russian pagan metal (but not all songs I would consider metal). Lead singer Masha Scream doesn´t bear her name without reason, but her cleans are awesome as well, especially the slow, deep ones. "Yarilo", "Vosstanie Roda", "Vo Slavu Velikim!", "Slav´sia Rus", "Liki Bessmertnykh Bogov" Blackbriar may also be worth a listen, although Zora´s voice may not be for everyone, but it´s amazing, in a haunting way. "I'd Rather Burn", "Until Eternity", "Mortal Remains", "Hear you scream", "Weakness and Lust" are just a few of their great songs. "Ready to Kill" is the only song that has some screams in it and is pretty awesome, but the others better represent their usual sound.
"THERE IS NO DANA, THERE IS ONLY ZUUL" "What a lovely singing voice you must have" This is how female growling got started, with the help pf a demon. Understand the song title now? Great video. Love the reaction and the rabbit hole. Love the editing. 😈
The original is so much better. I would love to hear your assessment of Powerwolf's lead singer. He has the ability to convey tone and feeling without it being drowned out by guttural harshness. Her voice is akin to a record scratch.
*You have to check out German vocalist Angela Gossow [former ARCH ENEMY lead vocalist and now band manager of ARCH ENEMY, AMARANTHE, Spiritual Beggars and Obscura]. 🎵She performed guest vocals on AMARANTHE's single version of "Do Or Die" (2020), and was featured in the song's music video, making it Gossow's first musical performance in 8 years. 🎵 I also highly recommend the cover versions of Russian lead vocalist ALEX [the] TERRIBLE and the songs of his band's [SLAUGHTER TO PREVAIL] actual album "Kostolom". 🎵🎸🎹🥁📣🎵💿🔊✅🔥😈🔥Greetings & 🛡Stay safe.* 🛡
It's so funny to watch peoples reaction to Jin jner and everyone stops the video just before they get their little minds blown away. But to this reaction Powerwolf is really good. They are so very thematic in their presentation. I was first turn onto them when a contestant on the The Voice of Ukraine performed "We drink your Blood". It blew away the judges they had that look of "What the frell did I just listen to and watch ?" on their faces except for one of the judges. He looked like "meh" he wasn't that impressed but the two ladies well one of the ladies had the look of sheer terror on her face and the other one looked like she had a rake on her head. The other male judge I think he actually enjoyed the performance. \m/ \m/ Also go check Lacrimosa they are a Swiss Goth metal band, the lead singer also works with Mono Inc. from time to time. 😈
I’m not really big on these kinds of vocals, I’m more into clean vocals. I do enjoy the music though. I appreciate you being willing to check out all kinds of genres. I am more old-school in my tastes for metal / hard rock. You should check out Ronnie James Dio sometime. I think you will be quite surprised at his capabilities, I know Elizabeth Zaroff is kind of obsessed with him,
Now that was fun! I didn‘t know this band so far, even though I‘m German. This lady can growl!! Love it, but my wife would kill me if I played that song on at home! Your reaction was also fun, liked it! Now to Saarbrücken: ithe s is prounounced like a z, as in Led Zeppelin. The Saar is a river and Brücken csn be trabcelated as bridges. So it‘s bridges over the river Saar: Saarbrücken.
I must admit, I got excited to see this one, but then disappointed to see this version, as I think the original is much better. Alissa's vocals in general are fine, but IMO don't suit this song as well as Attila's alone.
I must respectfully disagree with you. I love both versions equally. Attila does Attila and Alissa does Alissa. I suppose everybody has their own preference, though and that's fine. :)

If you thought that was much you should watch something with Arch Enemy and Angela Gossow which Alissa replaced. We will rise is a great live song for example.
You have to check out "Brain Washing" by DEXCORE, the vocalist has great technique
Might I suggest Bloodywood Jee Veeray
“The Day You Died” live in Japan is my favorite live vid with Angela Gossow
To really get a sense of what Alissa White-Gluz is capable of, I strongly suggest a reaction to "Reason to Believe" by Arch Enemy. For personal interest, since I don't know it would make a good react - have a listen to "Swan Lake" by The Agonist in which she sings the famous bit acapella.

THE AGONIST - Panophobia
Thank you for your suggestion. Hope to see you at my 195K Subscriber Celebration Live Stream today?
The original version is less violent but is not safe for work -it involves nuns going against character.
When are video games and Disney going to discover Alissa?!? She would be a perfect playable singing demon character.
Thank you for your comment. Did you like the new Encanto reaction I just posted and hope to see you Friday for the Encanto Bruno Premiere?
She is in Gears 5 :)
Hi Maggie Alissa is a fellow Canadian. She's vegan. She does do clean vocals. You should react to Alissa and Tarja and also Arch Enemy singing The Eagle Flies Alone. Floor growls also.
Alissa and Charlotte Wessels did "Lizzie" clean together, it was stunning.
Thank you for your comment. NIGHTWISH tomorrow?

I agree, Maggie needs to hear (and maybe react to) the original version. I like both versions equally. :)
Yeah, I prefer the powerwolf only versions of these, the cleaner sounds work well for this song. But Alissa is cool too :D
Low key for your low growls you'll have to use your lower vocal cords with the stress of the false cords its more comfortable then it sounds
Alissa is truly awesome. There are some who will forever miss Angela Gossow from Arch Enemy, but IMO Alissa is killing it also.

NITA STRAUSS - The Wolf You Feed ft. Alissa White-Gluz we all need a reaction to this song!
Don't suppose we could get a reaction to the Powerwolf song " ressirection by erection"? Lol
Can't wait to see you tonight! ☺️💖
Don't know if someone already wrote it but she can do that through a whole show.
One of my favorite songs! You should also checkout the original with their regular singer Atila for comparison but this is my favorite.

You should check out Angela gossow who Alyssa replaced in Arch enemy
WOW, yes. But for next time, try some live recording from Arch Enemy or Powerwolf. That will be a true WOW. :D
Thank you for your suggestion! 🤘🥰
yes please react more arch enemy songs
The acoustic version of this with Alissa doing clean vocals is amazing
If you like her voice, listen thé agonist panaphobia and arch enemy Némésis live AT Wacken
Cool to see react again and yes I'm Stéphan😉
If you want to hear her clean vocals, I would recomend Arch Enemy - Reason to Believe, or Kamelot - Liar Liar, to hear more of her growl, one of Arch Enemy's new singles, Deceiver, Deceiver or House of Mirrors would be perfect.

So even though Alissa is singing most of Angela's songs, she sounds different, because of her technique.
If you to listen to some extreme vocals try also Demolisher from Slaughter to Prevail :) of Hellfire from Lorna Shore:)
Great job Maggie! This was a really cool video. Again hitting us with something unique and unexpected! Love it!
Here she's using more of a black metal type of growling, which is unusual for her, normally she uses death metal growls
Reason to believe is the song I would suggest you react to concerning Alyssa White Gluz it showcases her range and is a great anti suicide song
I love Alissa and this song more than original
This is the girl version of the song :D :D :D :D She is addressing boys, in the original they address girls :D
Listen to arch enemy
Start to listen when they had Angela gosso as the lead singer
Start with the song nemesis
If you don't know him, you should react to Nino Bravo. One of the bests spanish singers 👌
If you´re in for another clean/scream treat, try Arkona, it´s Russian pagan metal (but not all songs I would consider metal).
Lead singer Masha Scream doesn´t bear her name without reason, but her cleans are awesome as well, especially the slow, deep ones.
"Yarilo", "Vosstanie Roda", "Vo Slavu Velikim!", "Slav´sia Rus", "Liki Bessmertnykh Bogov"

"I'd Rather Burn", "Until Eternity", "Mortal Remains", "Hear you scream", "Weakness and Lust" are just a few of their great songs.
"Ready to Kill" is the only song that has some screams in it and is pretty awesome, but the others better represent their usual sound.
You should see her predecessor Angela Gossow 😈
If you want to hear that kind of register any song from Children of bodom is great :)
ARCH ENEMY DECEIVER DECEIVER NEXT! A TOTAL BANG!!
"THERE IS NO DANA, THERE IS ONLY ZUUL" "What a lovely singing voice you must have" This is how female growling got started, with the help pf a demon. Understand the song title now? Great video. Love the reaction and the rabbit hole. Love the editing. 😈
Love that Mike!!
Who you gonna call?
@@stevewothers4209 me? LOL
I just got into them and I like the original version
The original is so much better.

He has the ability to convey tone and feeling without it being drowned out by guttural harshness.

Dope started listening to this band after this one 🤘
Can't wait to see you tonight! ☺️💖
Cant wait !
🥰
Simon Simons pleaseeee🖤🤘🏻
Should listen to Alissa when she was the lead singer of the agonist she has some clean vocals with growls an their songs
This had a Toccata fugue in D minor vibe to it. 😈
Wooo keren👍👍
If you thought Jinjer's low growl was impressive, wait 'til you see "Blind and Frozen" by Beast in Black... (if you haven't already)
Omg Maggie you growling along is wholesome 👏👏🤣 I love it
There's a way to not hurt...
I'm first and cant wait for tonight
🤘💖🤘
Alissa growls a bit higher than Jinger

😈👿😈👿😈👿 demons are a girl's best friend
The female god of growling metal singing is Angela gusto!!!!!!!
I find the words very difficult to hear/understand-the music is great
Cant' wait to see you tonight! 🤘💖
She has a really good clean singing voice too though she almost never gets to use it with Arch enemy
To hear her do both though mirror mirror by Kamelot is a good choice or something from her Agonist days
Listen this with original Atilla’s vocal. To me it’s sounds better. Or listen something else of powerwolf. Atilla has a good vocal
Check out Van Canto A capella Metal
Wings Of Light - BATTLE BEAST
Just check out Rage of light’s cover of twilight of the thunder god….. Just saying….
secret behind growls is to wisper ..
I love this song and this video is realy great Greatings from germany ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️
Good pronounciation of Saarbrücken. :)
Please React to POWERWOLF’s “RESURRECTION BY ERECTION” 😂😂😂😂
React to orginal one
I think I prefer Jinger. Tatiana mixes it up more. I’ll admit it takes talent there is no denying that but these old ears can only take so much. Lol
Given how popular Tatiana is, Alissa may try mixing it up more.
Throat singing?

I was excited to this until I saw it was the awful rehashed version. 😥
Que pena, pegou a versão ruim.
The original is so much better, I really hate screaming like this
