A really cool aspect of the album is that it’s essentially a battle between genres. A more classical and melodic metal (led by Jorn Lande, Noora Louhimo) vs a more modern, dissonant metal (led by Telle Smith, Tre Watson).
Not just essentially... that's literally their intention when they made this album. If you watch the show, Predator is the first song sung by the enemy of Pentakill, the God of Dissonance. All musics are structured and with lyrics to tell a story. Pentakill showing they stand strong, being attacked, retreating to fight again, their new weapons, the enemy counterattacking, and at the end, their victory.
I’ve been getting links to more people reacting to these so I just wanted to say hey Dave, thanks for reacting! I am one of the composers in Pentakill III and I did vocals on this song!
I adore every Viego song in this album, they just hit dead on exactly what I crave from metal. It makes me want to learn how to compose just to replicate this feeling
i personally love whole album and I dont skip even one song, they have 3 vocalists on this album so every song is different. or maybe I'm just easy to please when it comes to metal
At some point, I highly recommend watching the virtual concert Riot released alongside the album. A video on would be fun, but if you’re already planning on reacting to the song separately, it would probably end up being repetitive
Predator is definitely up there for me. Gets your blood pumping really quick! I would give it 10/10 any day of the week. Same goes for this video. Keep it up DAVE!
Great reaction as always! There’s a third main vocalist in pentakill! She’s singing in « Gathering storm » and « Stormrazor ». 2 other bangers! You should Check it out!!
I may have some favorites in each of the Pentakill albums, but I'm sure there's not a single one I don't love. As always, great reaction and music analysis from you Dave!
this is a big *headBANGER* this is just my second time listening to this one and I'm mad that I didn't love it this much the first time I heard it, now I know what I'll be keep coming back to. Great reaction. Maybe you should check out some SION, it is Howard Jones's (former Killswitch Engage singer) and Jared Dines's (great guitarist and legendary metal, meme youtuber) Project they released their debut album not so long ago, and their songs definitely bang. The song ''The Blade'' was their first single.
I dont know if this is right but in the lore of the album the person singing this song (Viego) is like the chosen of the dissonant one so I wonder if its intentionally different and the start comes in so hard because of that
This is actually my favorite song on this album. It's a banger and a half. This is prime high tempo/upbeat gamer music, or workout music, or music to keep my ass moving at a good pace while at work. I understand why it's not one of the 2.5 million view songs and more popular, but I love this stuff.
This song is my keast favorite on the album and it is still a banger. The only thing i dislike about it is that screaming in the beginning. Screaming out whole verses just ain't my thing. Viego takes no shits though.
Hey brother... subscribed after your Home Free videos! If I may... I've asked nearly a dozen youtubers to react to this gal, None has replied, or done so! Her name is Courtney Hadwin! She got a golden buzzer on America's Got Talent a few years ago... look it up! It was mindblowing by itself! When she didn't win... I haven't watched it since! But.... in 2018 I think, when she came back for AGT Championship... she started with an original that was UNREAL, called Pretty Little Things! Check it out! Then... check out her YT channel... three songs in particular are UNREAL!!!! She gonna go places now that she's 18... I think!? On her channel is "Old Town Road", "Sign of the Times" and "Someone you Loved"... that are to me... OUT OF THIS WORLD!!!! You check it out! I think you'll agree! Very few "Reactionary videos" cover it... for aome reason!?!?!? I think you'll agree... she deserves some attention! Again... now that she's 18... I think she's gonna Blow up the internet!!!!
Bro... thank you! For being a legit reactionary channel, and most of all... reading your comments! Bless ya Sir, best of wishes to ya for your channel... even if ya don't do a Video on her! Have a Great weekend Brother!
BTW... ifn ya haven't noticed I don't get likes on here! Seems the FB Naughtzees don't care for my opinions/comments! Therefore.... they're hidden! But... I'm sure you'll agree... regardless of my political opinions, music is universal! I hope you've read all my comments! Mostly... I Hope you can spread your love of Music to this young gal who like most of us... are slightly different in our own ways!!! It's my believe that Music CAN overcome ALL boundaries!!!! Peace out brother! Have a great weekend... and life!

Oh snaps what it do homie! Nice to see you here!

I think it's 4 vocalists. Karthus, Kayle, Viego and in musics like that it's Tre Watson ( main guitar) aka Mordekaiser
This is the best song on the album in my opinion.
It's a normal timesignatur (4/4), but it's mostly in triplets which gives it a pretty nice feel :)

How has this not got more views than just under 700? Amazing analysis and reaction! 🤘🏻

Don't forget "Tear of the Goddess". :)
@@Lazarus3737 he’s talking about the newest album
@@prestondanner5037 I understand that but the point still stands...? Okay?
@@Lazarus3737 yes of course tear of the goddess! My top 3 pentakill song i think

Pentakill is nothing but bangers. One of the few bands I'll throw on shuffle and jam out to everything. 🤘🤘

I understand why it's not one of the 2.5 million view songs and more popular, but I love this stuff.
I hope one day you'll react to Gathering Storm, it features the female vocalist of Pentakill! It's another banger for sure!
This song isn't as popular because it's a Viego/Dissonance track. I think it's a banger.
Hell yeah, I like head bangers like this one. Pentakill is as awesome as always
Banger
Predator isn't my favourite song on the album but I really enjoy it in the context of the story so still like a solid 7/10 for me
Hey dude, you should watch the concert, you will understand more the changes in style
Savage
Most people listen on spotify so youtube views are mostly random imo
Edge of night next pls !
You need to react at Last Stand
This song is my keast favorite on the album and it is still a banger. The only thing i dislike about it is that screaming in the beginning. Screaming out whole verses just ain't my thing. Viego takes no shits though.
YET AGAIN
Lost chapter is good but please turn back to smite&ignite and do the last whisper
Don't think this is for me.
Thumbs up for channel.

Tell me she doesn't have "The Music" within her!!! Albeit a generation behind today... she Has It In HER!!!!!!!
I haven't purchased a song in 25 plus years... when she comes out with an album... (Yes I'm old! Lol) I'll buy it!!!
She got the Ghosts of Tina Turner and Janice Joplin in her!!!
Today... we Need her infusion of the roots into today's music!!!!!!!
