    So glad that you returned to UTA Tank! Their album last year was one of top ones for me. I'm not usually a fan of power metal so like you said, throw out genres. Great music is great music! It's a shame that there is no video yet for The Wind That Shapes The Land. That's a sonic masterpiece, imo. Instead, I suggest checking out Legacy. It's a song that expands their sound and I love it. Either way, I can't wait to see your next reaction to this awesome band.

    IMMORTAL IS MORE THAN A NAME!
    SOULBOUND
    We race around the melted char of what was once a neutron star
    And use the gravity to whip us into dark galactic rifts
    Yet still somehow we can't escape, they have no flaw, they feel no pain
    These twisted shadows of the men I once condemned
    We can
    Why do you seek us
    See right
    You won't defeat us
    Through you
    Turn around while you can
    Your soul
    Try to remember
    Is ours
    Why you defend her
    This time
    Shatter the master plan
    Soul bound
    Endlessly forever
    Locked between the darkness and the light
    Don't drown
    In the swarming, blackened rising
    Hold on to humanity and fight
    Tormented by the tethering of souls to phantoms that remain
    These spectres seem devoid of life but there is something in their eyes
    Refuse to see they can't be saved, I push to pull them from the grave
    End their addiction to the thrall once and for all
    But who am I to be their saviour, slave to time
    When I am doomed to be in chains for all my life
    Soul bound
    Endlessly forever
    Locked between the darkness and the light
    Don't drown
    In the swarming, blackened rising
    Hold on to humanity and fight

    Other Jamie was around most of last year and had only just found UTA when the new album dropped, and just played this music video (not the song, the video specifically), on repeat for weeks at a time. Did all the research into the band, the storyline of the matriarch, the Apex and Abyss albums. It's all amazing. We only buy stuff that we're actually going to use, so we got the 'lost tour' t-shirt in 2 sizes, and love those shirts to pieces. So cool.
    Glad you finally got around to doing a reaction as well. I came for your cool vibes and your headbanging, praise for the band and the gear breakdown, and you delivered on all fronts.
    And as you say, this is "powerful," which is what I would call power metal. But no matter what it is, UTA is awesome.

    Two other Unleash the Archers songs I recommend, though they don't feature much in the way of gear, are Legacy and Northwest Passage. The band produced Legacy as a lyric video, and I think you'll especially love the guitar and drum work in the song, and how nicely the intensity contrasts Brittney's vocals. Northwest Passage is a cover of the Stan Rogers song, which I've sometimes seen referred to as Canada's unofficial national anthem. I love how the band builds in intensity throughout the song. It's absolutely worth checking out, and I think there may even be some gear in the music video to talk about!

    Always great to see a react to Unleash the Archers. Several years ago I knew the band with the song General of the dark army, and as many as the fans, the Britney’s voice was the first I notice, but the musicianship is fantastic. The fact they do powermetal without talking about dragons, castles and all the classic stuff it’s refreshing to the genre. Nice video, man. An authentic dream come true would be to see reaction videos to The Warning, Haggard, Moonspell, other song by Ne Obliviscaris, Baroness, Orphaned Land, Myrath, Pagan’s Mind, Anathema, and many more. Thanks for uploading these great videos. Keep the good work!

  • @VorAbaddon
    @VorAbaddon 3 роки тому

    Awesome reaction, always great to hear UTA! Recommendations for next UTA video:
    The Matriarch - It's also a "Quick banger" similar to Soulbound, but from the Apex album, so if you loved Soulbound, you'll love this one.
    Apex - The final track to the album it serves as title track for, it's one of the most epic things I've heard and the finale without fail leaves me tired and smiling.
    Other bands to try out:
    Spoil Engine - Disconnect

    Not sure if you've ever heard Avantasia (since you've mentioned a few times you never got into power metal back in the day), but if you haven't I wholeheartedly recommend them.
    Avantasia is the collab brain-child of Tobias Sammet (in between working on that he's also the front-man and songwriter of the band EdGuy, the guy has waaayyy too much energy xD), besides having awesome musicians (like Eric Singer the drummer from Kiss, Henjo Richter a guitarrist from Gamma Ray, Markus Grosskopf the bassplayer and founder of Helloween, and more) there's also a slew of fantastic singers who feature in this collab, like Michael Kiske, Alice Cooper, Klaus Meine, Dee Snider, Hansi Kürsch, and since I know it'll peak your interest: Marco Hietala ^^ (and again, maaaany more).
    My recommendation for getting you hooked would be "Master of the Pendulum", since it features Marco Hietala. ^^
    Other fantastic first songs would be: "Shelter from the rain", "Let the Storm Descend Upon You", or "The Raven Child".

Like " he's playing a guitar by a Company based somewhere in the backyards of a small town in the nowhere where one single man builds them on bis own..." Where do you have all this knowledge from, you wandering "Gearpedia" ?!?! And you recognize all that in a glimpse... Dude you are sick.👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

    Dude, I was just thinking yesterday how it's been a while since you've done an Unleash the Archers reaction! I'm so happy to see you liking (loving?) their music! I think we know how to classify Unleash the Archers: Power(ful) Metal! 😉 Just one of the many things I love about this song is how Grant's layered growls/screams at the end nicely bookends Brittney's layered "yahs" from the beginning.

      @@TankTheTech you deserve all the praise man! The videos you and chase put out did help me a lot through this Covid craziness. The lockdowns in combination with severe depression are hitting hard, but every time you upload it's just a couple of minutes for me to just sit back, relax, forget about the world and learn about music :D
      And I know the suggestions should come through discord and I already voted them up, but please please have a listen to Nemophila. It's just a couple of months since I first listened to them but they caught me hook, line and sinker. They are just so good! :D

    Great reaction, Tank! Very reflective of the first time I heard this song. That first "Brittney wail"™ (yes, she should definitely patent that wail) got me hooked. This song is now a permanent fixture on my playlist.
    As for other recommendations, I'd definitely recommend UTA's cover of "Northwest Passage". It is phenomenal! They stay true to the original but put their own spin on it, which is just out of this world. It's not as intense as this song, but it's just sooooo cool!
    Again, great reaction, Tank. You da' man.

    You and Chase have both mentioned the growls. Normally they aren't my thing but on Abyss and Apex they are used so well. When you have the growls that is the voice of "The Matriarch" the antagonist of the story that runs through both albums. UTA are about the only band I like that routinely uses metal growls. \m/ rock on Tank.

  • @danielsand8989
    @danielsand8989 3 роки тому

    One of my favorite quotes:
    Napalm records... Who are these guys?! 🤣🤣
    In awakening we also had growls, but a little more in the background.
    Another favorite quote:
    I have to see thus band!
    Thank you for reminding me, I need to buy the new archers album 🤩

  • @danielsand8989
    @danielsand8989 3 роки тому +1

    6:31min u've said "If I like it, I like it". That is also my opinion. It doesn't matter, what kinda style it is, when the sound is catching you and touches your soul, it is good.
    I'm 47 yo and I love a lot of differnet musicstyles.
    Okay, Hard Rock ist my most favorite stuff.
    A year ago, I didn't know the Archers and now I listen to them each and every day @work, in my car and @home I listen ally reaction vids :D
    If anyone had told me many years ago, sometimes I would love "growls" in a song, I would have called them crazy.
    What kind of music you hear, tells a lot about the way you went in life. Music and also the different styles are companions your whole lifetime.
    I love the 80's Pop, Neue deutsche Welle (new german wave), which was a special musicstyle in germany most the time with german lyrics. Also I love Partypop, EBM and sometimes techno, Neue Deutsche Härte (= new german hardness... bands like EIsbrecher, Rammstein, Megaherz for example), adulted oriented Rock, classical music and American country (new country like Brantley Gilbert, Pat Green, Brad Paisley, Christian Kane and so on).
    Your mind is growing, also your perception to music and I give a f*** what people around me think, what I have to listen to.
    Sorry for my bad english, but you doing right, you on your way, no other could go this for you. NAMASTE
    PS.: Counting the days, I'll see my Archer back again @ your channel

    Hey tank! I am a little late to this party.
    Most UTA has growls before this album this album has a bit of change from the previous albums . Go back Awakening had lots of heavy vocals and growls. IMO other than Britney and the AMAZING musical talent it was the growls that got me in the first place. Please even in your own time check out Cleanse the Bloodlines and eat what you kill (imo the heaviest song from uta)
    it keeps getting better and better although the new album took a bit for me to get into because of the change in heavyness not a bad thing just a change from what is one of my all time fave bands!
    Keep up the awesome vids man !
    Cant wait from some more UTA from you!
