I love Judson's usual reactions to "dirty" vocals. Not for everyone of course, but I appreciate he goes through with it and breaks down everything else. Also would LOVE to see him react to Ants of the Sky. Long song, but so amazing.
Man I haven't listened to BTBAM since colors because the monotone vocals set me off but, after listening to this, I need to revisit them for sure! This song in particular reminds me of Native Construct which which would be a great band for Judson to react to!
Not a lot of bands from the US come to perform where I live (Israel), it’s a very long and expensive journey. BTBAM came here twice and performed 2 amazing shows. I also got to meet them personally in the biggest metal pub in Tel Aviv one day before the concert. They are amazing musicians and people, very friendly, down to earth and appreciative of their fans. I really liked them before watching them live but after the shows and meeting them they became one of my favorite bands 🤘
I think Judson likes BTBAM as one of his favorite metal bands. So true though, a song like that youd have to listen to 5-10 times to fully grasp whats going on. But I think that goes with most metal bands in general A piece like this with multiple instruments is exactly the right choice because Judson seems to be used to orchestras. I guess the really fast drum and melodic guitar songs arent too much up his alley because of the complexities and rhythms? Anyway. Id love to see an Archspire video for shock effect [fathom infinite depths or Acrid Canon] if you need anymore suggestions which im sure theres quite a list, I would recommend Conquering Dystopia - Ashes of Lesser men & Trioscapes - BlastOff
Appreciate you loving this band and continuing to show them off, any of their stuff listened to by a professional musician is usually entertaining at minimum.
A few metal or prog bands that also have jazz parts are. Mute - Native Construct ua-cam.com/video/v99dHD9oWfU/v-deo.html&pp=ygUVbXV0ZSBuYXRpdmUgY29uc3RydWN0 they are very BTBAM like. Haken - Host ua-cam.com/video/v88bmS3uujs/v-deo.html Steven Wilson Luminol - ua-cam.com/video/EM-5EBAJ7tA/v-deo.html
BTBAM has been in my musical wheelhouse since first hearing "Aspirations" in like 2001 or 2002. The albums "Alaska" and "Colors" are incredible, mind you... "White Walls" is probably my favorite song but "Voice of Trespass" is a solid choice.
One time, you should scare the crap out of Judson while he's playing piano in the intro 😅 also this is my favorite band super happy you went back to them.
Side note, loving the shirt. I played 6 shows with Darkest Hour over the early to late 2000s, "Undying Ruin" is one of my favorite metal albums of all time. Should totally do "Tranquil" or maybe a "Pathos" review just to give him a break from metal or something. Maybe their new song "Perpetual Terminal." Basically just saying that Darkest Hour should join the stage.
I was just thinking that I haven’t seen a BTBAM reaction in a bit and then I saw this. Should get Jud to react to something from Colors (their best album imo) - Sun of Nothing, Ants of the Sky, Prequel to the Sequel, White Walls. Might be a longer video due to song length, but well worth it.
Anything off of colors would be great; I still think Paralax 2 is their best album though. I can only listen to it front to back. Foam borne is still my absolute favorite opener of any album ever!
Have you guys done Ants of the Sky or Sun of Nothing or anything from Colors?! I love BTBAM. Real fond memories bonding with my brother as a kid with the self titled, alaska, and colors album! Going to see them live for the first time ever on Monday! 🥰
If one of their songs come on when I'm listening to stuff on random, I have to go put the album on. Have the same thing with Porcupine Tree, although a very different band of course. Just find it hard to listen to songs in isolation, because the whole album is one long majestically epic song. Great choice though and not at all surprised it pricked Judson's ears!
As a fellow UA-camr (or maybe a lapsed one) how do you get away with playing a copyrighted song entirely uninterrupted as the main content of your video? I understand that you're adding critique at the end but the content ID scan doesn't really care about that. Do you dispute the claim under the grounds of it being transformative, or is this demonetized?
That’s a great question… To be fully transparent, pausing for the sake of monetization causes “reaction” videos to lose their authenticity, in my opinion. I’m a big fan of other reaction channels, but pausing every 10 seconds just to get monetized seems disingenuous to me. From a financial point of view, it’s probably not a good decision, but we’re enjoying ourselves. I (Richard) get to show my friend the music that I love and I get to hear my friend’s unique take on it. It also gives us an excuse to hang out with each other, which can sometimes be a challenge with our personal schedules. To answer your question, 99% of our videos are demonetized. We’ve had a few here and there that got monetized, but it’s very rare. It would be wonderful if they all got monetized, but we’re making the conscious effort to not destroy every piece of music that we listen to with pauses every few seconds. We do submit disputes on every video, but that usually doesn’t matter. And who knows? Maybe someone will offer us a sponsorship deal or something at some point. 😂 It’s not likely, but crazier things have happened. I hope this answered your questions. Feel free to follow up if you need to know anything else. -Richard
Great Measures in death/black metal font, brilliant! Not so much for the song, terrible song, what the heck was that! Not so terrible is JAGUAR GOD - MASTODON, amazing song with one of the greatest solo and piano work by Frank Zappa;a guy...
Should definitely do Extremophile Elite (the live version) so Judson can see all the instruments and BTBAM craziness 😂
Yea the live studio version with the tuba, violin and xylophone
Yes, please
This 100%
Yes please!
White Walls is also very much necessary!
This is like two reactions in one. The first being Judson's reaction to the song. The second being Richards reaction to Judson's reaction. 😆
Yeah. As well as Richard’s reaction to Judson’s piano afterwards. Love it
Never clicked on a video so fast lol. This should be fun
Hey, I requested this on Patreon. Thanks a bunch guys! Love your videos!
Thanks for introducing me to this band! Simply amazing stuff
Oh boy. You are in for a wild ride.
Wish I could rediscover their discography again for the first time, haha
lol, I remember my first time
@@joshshultz1250
Just saw them live in the 15 years or so i have been listening to them, best show I have ever been to
Welcome. To our journey.
Some suggestions of bands that Judson could possibly like: Dream Theater, Fates Warning, Threshold, Marillion… and, well, Savatage. ;)
Excellent song from an excellent band.
His eyebrows when the horn section comes in.

You have tragically missed a lot
Colors II is a masterpiece and much of their newer material is immaculate
holy shit! I thought I was the only person who knows Native Construct by this point
@@zadongaming2962 bruh same 😭😭😭😭 I really hope they comeback with new songs
@@aahmadfadhilah I think its not happening... They disbanded last I checked :(
Piano for the soul

@@Rojomanzana438 כנראה שלא :)
You guys should defintely react to "Igorrr - Cheval" is a must! I would love to see your reaction on that one.
I did learn this music to make a COVER, i dealyed and never did do.
But this is one of the best song i know.
Wonderful song!
Thanks for reacting this absolutely magnificent band. 🙏
Nice Darkest Hour tee. Another underrated band.
Gotta love voice of trespass
Great song, but it feels like such drummer candy. We are there with every bar. Always fun seeing people hear it for the first time.
Definitely a different vibe but fun to listen to like the change up love listening to great music from the start to the end

Appreciate you loving this band and continuing to show them off, any of their stuff listened to by a professional musician is usually entertaining at minimum.
Ive looked for so long for someone rwacting to BTBAM. Love it. You should do SKSK ( Scary Kids Scaring Kids ) Faces!
Don't cry Intro is so perfect
LOL

Mute - Native Construct ua-cam.com/video/v99dHD9oWfU/v-deo.html&pp=ygUVbXV0ZSBuYXRpdmUgY29uc3RydWN0 they are very BTBAM like.

Absolutely loved this video. Such a fantastic song. Would love you guys to do some Avatar!
Im deff getting this cd 🤘😈
Love the new logo!!❤
Judson would probably dig thank you scientist.
Anxiously waiting for Dissection to show Up on the channel.
Reminded me of a harder version of Zoot Suit Riot. That was fun.

Very happy to see Pantera back , please do high on fire - snakes for the divine or anything electric wizard for something different

SOmebody said squirrel Nut Zippers cover hahaha
I'm literally praying for you guys to do Cockroach king by haken omgomg
ok, may be swing - but my first thought was progressive jazz metal.... ;-)
Goes on a bit.
Please react to Equilibrium - Kurzes Epos! :D
