Ben Duer is one of the top vocalists in deathcore. Heretic Prevails really shows his range. Chris Wiseman is the guitarist and composes the music. He also is in Currents (and writes much of the music as well)
Their guitarist does the lighter vocals, and the lyrics are actually very cool. They tell a story across the album, and the vocabulary of the lyricist (lead singer) is pretty vast.
If you liked their sound and are interested in more, my personal favorites are The Catacombs, The Horror Within, and Barren and Breathless Macrocosm. Don’t feel bad about not picking up their lyrics, I too don’t often understand death/deathcore without text for the lyrics.
I know you have a lot ot request but i'm just getting another Car Bomb request in here (songs like Blackened Battery, Gratitude or Antipatterns) . Those guys are the bread and butter of experimental metal with spacerock influences Cheers!
Chill, he's never heard this band before and he was only judging by the logo. Plus this gives off major blackmetal vibes and without the breakdowns in their new album the only deathcore thing about it is the vocals.
Ive been trying to get reactions to bands that have (literally no reactions) 1: above this (all their tracks are great) 2: indorphine ( wierd band but I suggest “spaghetti “
I'm planning on doing a full week of JRock/JMetal so yes Babymetal will fit right in. And I'm glad you suggested something other than Gimme Chocolate and Karate. Not that I think those are bad songs (I haven't listened to anything from this band yet) but they are the singles and I honestly prefer to react to the songs that didn't get picked for marketing reasons.
@@CriticalReactions Sweet thank you, i like those tracks too but this one is unique, if you have the lyrics with you you will understand the reason behinde the...ok will stop myself i dont want to spoil it for but when you play it can you do the live version with the mischief of gods intro as i know you will appreciate it more ua-cam.com/video/QxYAcIyk2Co/v-deo.html ...Also stoked your doing a J metal week🤘 i will make sure to watch. If you haven't got Maximum the Hormone on your J Metal week than you need to add them they are insanely good especially this live concert they did in japan thats really hard to find on UA-cam, ill do some digging and see if i can find it and link it here, even if you dont react to it you should definitely check them and the concert out👌🤞🏼🤘
Right now I have Band-Maid, LadyBeard, and BabyMetal on the list. I need two more bands so Maximum the Hormone might go on the list. I've been searching for bands and I've found Dir En Grey, Despair's Ray, and Cyntia but I don't know which ones to do, there are soooo many :) Just a heads up, I'll be doing the studio versions of these bands since I'm interested in the intended resulting art rather than the one that ends up getting heard live which tends to have compromises such as not enough instruments (if they double tracked some of the performers), lost control over sound (since it is designed to project to an entire crowd and must be loud) or any other issues. I might watch a live performance for entertainment reasons but for an analysis I'd prefer the highly controlled studio version.
That is in fact one vocalist, ben duerr, and he is a god lol
The chorus with the less harsh vocals is their guitarist as well
It’s crazy. I thought there was two and watched the live video. Idk how his voice does that

Would love to see you react to The Heretic Prevails by this band.
That one's a little newer so it would be pretty cool to see how the band has evolved. It's in the list :)
Critical Reactions Melancholy came out in 2019
And while Melancholy came out in 2019, The Heretic Prevails came out a year before.
Krakencrotch 2 years before Melancholy
@@CriticalReactions the entire Reclaimer album is about Halo as well ;)
The opening to this song is truly master class. The amazing build up to the verse. The screaming and singing is amazing. This song is amazing
Malediction would of been a dope one to react to
Also. If you love concept albums, listen to the album front to back with lyrics

Best band out there right now

Great explanations and reaction. Glad the drummer (Anthony Barone) got some recognition, I'm a big fanboy of his!
So i see you havent reacted to "Infant Annihilator". Il be here, waiting for that :)
GoodAlexanderVibes found the troll. I love IA, but don’t do that to this man 😂
Never mind, let’s just have him react to Soil the Stillborn and get it over with.
Infant annihilator so good band i love them
Shadow of intent the catacombs!!! Nice work man
Cody Green my personal fav song, the breakdown at the end is brutal
React to Ram Ranch by Grant MacDonald!
Lol
If you dont know them, try checking out northlane or nothing but thieves.
Different genres but cool sounds and musicianship
My favorite band of the past 5 years!
I know you have a lot ot request but i'm just getting another Car Bomb request in here (songs like Blackened Battery, Gratitude or Antipatterns) . Those guys are the bread and butter of experimental metal with spacerock influences Cheers!
Please! Behold by Born of Osiris or The Forsaking by Fleshgod Apocalypse.
Infant Annihilator PLEASE
Swineacologist
Let’s just have him listen to Soil the Stillborn and get it over with.
@@kc1017brksqd Nah, there are better songs by them %)
A feast for kings -consequence
black metal? it"s a deathcore!
symphonic deathcore

*melodic deathcore
It’s just death metal to me 🤷🏻♂️
Ive been trying to get reactions to bands that have (literally no reactions) 1: above this (all their tracks are great)
2: indorphine ( wierd band but I suggest “spaghetti “
Dude I just went and listened to indorphine-spaghetti. How the hell have I missed that. Shits awesome. Lol
So do me a favor and react to “above this”...a band that deserves all clout, but has none
AS GOD IS MY WITNESS- Morte
They are young but they know what they are doing
This is a MAS-TER-PIECE
Can you do Rhondo of nightmare by Babymetal please

Try watching the lyric videos while reacting to it, what is amazing about the singing is how clear all of it is once you see the lyrics
